Granny Danger Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 6 hours ago, Jdog said: So if you are born in Saudi Arabia and are brainwashed every second of the day to give your life to Allah from birth...at 12 year old you're an idiot if you believe in God? I think that’s really important. Some religions are far worse than others for indoctrination when young then other familial pressure as they’re older. The treatment of apostates amongst Muslims is particularly shocking. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeVanTeeth Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 I'm guessing that it's just a massive coincidence that the folks from different religions that believe in forms of creationism tend to be the most inbred groups in the world. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tamthebam Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 6 hours ago, The OP said: Fair enough if you don’t have access to other books, although I still think an intelligent mind would question religious nonsense. which is one of the points Terry Pratchett made in "Small Gods". The Omnians go about terrorising other people but it turns out only one lowly novice actually believes in their god. The rest have to go along with it for fear of the Inquisition. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JamieThomas Posted July 14, 2018 Share Posted July 14, 2018 Got a massive amount of respect for the religious, as I do for anyone else who gets through life with a severe mental or physical handicap. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately science knows how life evolved and 'god' had nothing to do with it as God doesn't exist. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
