Channel Description:
Antitheist - Science - Opinion and Humor - some music and Bianka, my cat.
"They [religions] all make the same mistake. They all take the only real faculty we have that distinguishes us from other primates and from other animals -- the faculty of reason, and the willingness to take any risk that reason demands of us -- and they replace that with the idea that faith is a virtue. If I could change just one thing, it would be to dissociate the idea of faith from virtue, now and for good, and to expose it for what it is: a servile weakness, a refuge in cowardice, and a willingness to follow with credulity, people who are in the highest degree, unscrupulous."

I honestly don't remember what I said to megaloethor. All I can remember is I got the impression he was a cunt so I left something that wasn't filled with respect, kindness and rainbows. I wasn't trolling him I went there to prove a point but I have to admit it wasn't worded with the kindest of intentions.
Also, make sure no one is watching you sleep.
Evolutionary processes give rise to diversity at every level of biological organisation, including species, individual organisms and molecules such as DNA and proteins.
Because god only relies on faith? How strange. Doesn't that strike you as odd right there?
I mean we're only talking about your/our life.
If it is to be heaven or hell, it should make the rules of the game crystal clear to all.
Instead, it is all mystery, interpretation and feeling.
A global map of the various religions will confirm that.
Never said the eye and ear was simple. Just that we understand how they work and that they are not designed by intelligence.
Complexity can arise from simplicity. It is there for the understanding if you are willing to look at the massive amount of accumulated knowledge that we now have.
Take those god glasses off for 8 minutes and watch this.

I just do not understand why you would want to believe that when you have a choice.
As it turns out, that is an electronic musician from Canada. Cool. I'll check that out!
"..project light to the brain where an unexplained process gives us the images of reality."
Another good chuckle. Ummm, we know how the eye works these days...and the ear.
They are NOT unexplainable. Curious, how does the eye doctor know what prescription to give the millions who need glasses if he doesn't know how the eye works?
