CFI: It's Time for Science and Reason

http://www.centerforinquiry.net

The methods and values of scientific thinking have expanded our knowledge of life and our place in the universe. This modern knowledge—based on experience and evidence—has brought enormous benefit to humanity, yet many people still choose to rely on ancient texts and beliefs to guide their lives and their nations.

The Center for Inquiry exists to change this situation. We are here to promote the scientific outlook—to expand the methods and values of science into all areas of human endeavor.

We invite you to learn more about the ways we are using research, outreach, and activism to advance reason and human values around the world. Then, if these values are as important to you as they are to us, we ask you to join CFI.

Let your voice be heard. With your help, we can ensure that our time—your time—will be a time of science and reason.

In a cultural climate that has become so hostile to science and secularism, the work of CFI is more important than ever. If you cherish rational thinking, science, and secular values, please join CFI today.

99.9 % of people know science is the future and religion is the past

religion will kill us

science will free us

Beautiful. Science is reality. Religion is useless supersition, it will die.

This is a lovely video with one problem. Science is logically incompatible with atheism. So the leap from a commitment to science, which I have, to a commitment to naturalism is a leap of faith which reason does not permit. Peace, Dennis

If this is true, why do none of you have the courage to expose the BIG lie that the Germans gassed people in WW2? Go to CODOH.COM.

@TheCartesianTheist I wish I could have said that. It's so true.

[NickoliLion]

The three great branches. Science, Religion, Philosophy. Each great, each with a purpose.

[TheCartesianTheist]

Yet again the atheists try to hijack science as if it belongs to their worldview!! Yawn.

Haha Dennett looked like he really didn't wanna be doing it.

@olivierpicard18 Thank you for the informative comment. Perhaps I wasnt clear. I meant "Because THEY were living long ago, THEY were stupid" Implying that because it happened 2000 years ago, everyone was stupid. That was my point. I re-read my statement and it DOES sound a bit vague. Maybe we can trade, I'll take a writing class, and you can have a history lesson!

@LettuceReason you should really work on your speech comprehension skills...

Susan Jacoby. "because its old, it's stupid!" Now, THERE's some rationale!
