@anthonycotillo Yes i do. Make believe (religion) is all well and good if it hurts no one. But this isn't the case is it and far from it. Religion causes so much unimaginable pain and suffering and all for what? So some people can feel comfort thinking when you die, that's not it? It's not worth the pain and suffering. Where as the truth, (nature) doesn't hurt a sole. Nature is beautiful, how we came about scientifically is far more enchanting than anything *Poof* 'there's a human' design.

@lukeymoe1315 I feel sorry for you, as your ignorance is quite something.

Also, maybe the favour of reading over the comment again and actually heed what it says. As it clearly says, he made me search deeper into science. He is PARTLY responsible for my change to atheism. Not soley, as you suggest.

I was born an atheist. I was turned into a Christian.It was weak of me to let others persuade me back then too. By your logic.

@Loredana21584 Wait, so you say, "We MUST be designed because we're perfect." Someone says, "But we're not perfect," to which you say, "Because we live in a fallen world." You can't have it both ways. Either we are perfect or we aren't. Now, a couple of things: 1. Thinking a humanoid must've designed something just because it's complex is naive and childlike. 2. So a person's body has a horrible genetic disease, as punishment for something he had no part in? Who would be persuaded by this?

@anthonycotillo So your only reason for doing good is because you're afraid you'll be punished by god? I do good because I am a social animal and society wouldn't function if we all behaved entirely selfishly. I have to love my life surrounded by other people. I don't want my neighbours robbing or killing me, so I won't rob or kill them. My morality is a form of social contract. Biblical morality is intrinsically immoral and repugnant.

@karezza6 Jesus and Buddha are historically questionable too.

@Loredana21584 About 30 years ago - the same time I started taking responsibility for my actions and stopped blaming an imaginary friend for all my misfortunes.

@Loredana21584 Surely gravity is explained pretty well by garvitational theory. And you do realise the sun neither rises nor sets, but that the earth rotates. The earth also has an irregular orbit so that it periodically moves closer to, then away from the sun. There is no 'correct' distance from the sun.The earth's climate has gone through periods of higher temperatures and lower temperatures. Such things are well understood by science.

@GuitarGage870 What insane reasoning! Evolution is NOT true, because it contradicts the drivel written by dozens of authors over 2500 years in a book which claims the Earth is only 6000 years old? You then cap it with a claim that blood and tissue cells must be able to last millions of years, because if they do not, then that proves that evolution is wrong!!! You are so mixed up that you are hilarious to read. Keep posting, we love the entertainment!

@GuitarGage870 FYI, I have read the Bible from cover to cover, Old and New Testament, including the original Catholic version and the Protestant 'Christian' version! I do not recall any mention of 'nearly perfect' genes in either of the books. So we started from incest - the Bible SAYS so!

Whales evolved from earlier mammals who lived on land. We are mammals and at some level we are related to whales and all other mammals - in fact ALL other living things, including plants, etc.

@lukeymoe1315 We ALL take on the beliefs of our parents when we are young. Later on when we grow old enough to THINK for ourselves, we start to question those beliefs. Some we continue to accept, others we decide to drop and replace with different ones. Peer pressure works in both areas. We have to be independent and look for sensible proofs of our beliefs. If we just blindly go along with our peers then we end up like the evil nutters in the Middle East who murder non-believers!

[pretjim2011]

@GuitarGage870 Wet dust and you get clay! Actually, we are descended from dust; ancient star dust. But, alas, you do not believe in that, do you, because your Universe is only 6000 years old. Oh, hang on, maybe you are actually in a parallel universe which IS only 6000 years old. That would explain a lot . . .

[pretjim2011]

@GuitarGage870 By the same token then, you must believe that anyone who does not believe in what you believe, must have flawed thinking. I think everyone would agree that YOU are the one with the flawed thinking. Your 'arguments' are so flawed that they sound like the rantings of someone with serious paranoid tendencies. You're not contemplating a jihad on us, are you?
