Stupid religious nutjobs

[TheVoiceOfReason93]

@ofgs2 Human religion stands on the assumption that Humanity is a unique creation by God. If another alien civilization more advance then us is discovered, then this uniqueness is lost. In all likelihood, you should hope that no one contacts us in the future.

Science proves the existence of a higher intelligence. The study of science is not wrong in of itself. Both sides of this issue are wrong, combating with the ideological fervor of the Crusades and we all know the bloodshed that caused. God is not mysterious, aloof or doesn't care what is happening on His earthly creation. We can't see radio waves, air or other spectra yet we see the affects. Don't reply with a retort, just think it over.

Always liked how at 2:21 she gets just a bit combative w/her boss. Meets him for the 1st time & just HAS to tell him he compromised security. It's HIS company! Great characterization of Ellie.

S.R. Hadden was the one who leaked the info about the human capsule in the machine, because he knew they were not going to build it, so he made sure the public knew what it was so they had no choice but to make it.

@Keruaran

I would not even take his account for granted. Any MADMAN or heretic could had say that back then and people would had believed it. Its all a matter of writing it down and finding enough power to suppress the others for it to be made RELIGION.

@TheVoiceOfReason93

Would you say that what Ezekiel sees in the first chapter of the Old Testament book that bears his name is something "more advanced than us"?

[ilikewarhammer]

@Dxh096020 The aliens secretly created religion to give humanity something to kill themselves over so they can advance themselves for another 1000 years. IF THERE WERE NO DARK AGES.....

@Satchel334 Since when did Edgar Winter become a Christian? He straps on a bunch of explosives and destroys the swirly transporter to other realms. Maybe it's due to his lack-luster music sales ever since "Free ride" and "Frankenstein"? Dog-gone-toot'en!
