FUN HISTORICAL FACT: Religion is directly responsible for less than 10% of ALL major conflicts in recorded history.

Wonder what the causes of the remaining 90%+ were?.......:jbhmm:

That's the media doing its job.....like they do to Black people.

:mjlol:

Most atheists are nothing like that at all just as most Christians are not like Jim Baker or 'pedophile priests' and most Muslims are not like Osama bin Laden.

If you believe most atheists are like Bill Maher, Richard Dawkins, or Madalyn Murray O'Hair........:ufdup:

The real 'blame' can in a sense be attributed to certain forms of Protestantism which relegated depictions of 'Holy' things/people as blasphemous in the 15th Century. It pretty much stopped people from visualizing what 'G-d' was and without being able to 'see' it mentally, it took one more step to imagine it being not there at all. In a sense, the rise in atheism directly corresponds to the power inherent in religious societies. The more power they have, the more atheism is seen as a 'deliverer' from oppression. The flip-side to this is that as religious domination wanes, so does atheism.....which is what's been happening since the mid-70's here in America. Many people think that atheism is on the rise, but that would be false. It's just more apparent. Since it is now being seen as the 'oppressor', religious belief is now the 'deliverer'.

dont forget atheism being used to blatantly justify western imperialism something Hitchens did and Sam Harris is trying to do (got ethered by Chomsky for it :banderas: )

This just outlines the history of the evolution of brain size. I dont find it hard to believe that random mutations in DNA lead to animals with larger brains


What I wanna know is how random mutations lead to abstract reasoning in humans, something no other animal can do.
do you realise that disproving evolution does not prove the existence of a god right. Just like proving evolution does not disprove a god exists. They don't even correlate. It's only an issue for literal creationists.

Im not trying to prove the existence of God or disprove evolution

@ThreeLetterAgency and other atheists mock religious people for being mindless followers when hes doing the same thing. He doesnt understand evolution in depth, or the limitations of the theory. He worships science like a religion

Evolution is a 'scientific theory' not just a theory.

"a coherent group of propositions formulated to explain a group of facts orphenomena in the natural world and repeatedly confirmed through experiment or observation"

I suppose its like looking at a math problem that you've solved but still are uncertain about being correct because everyone else is getting a different answer.

i think it's because the nature of their business is to provide duality to the argument over a conscious and concerned supreme being(s). if there wasn't large amounts of people advertising God(s) and forms of worship and religion, they'd have no battle to fight.
