I'd LOVE to hear an intelligent argument for our Muslim brothers. Is it ignorance or just plain cowardice about a religion that won't turn the other cheek?

I have serious doubts as to Christians being able to think for themselves. In two threads, I asked them to use the Bible that they should all have read before converting for a simple passage in one of the most popular books, and the first person to get it through about 45 posts was an atheist.

See for yourself

It seems hypocritical for them to start trying to convert people to their religion when they dont even know much about it. I onyl ask for people to do what is expected of them. I as a humanist am expected to promote humanity, and I see religion as a barrier in my way.

Since I had about 36 wrong answers, I will give you another chance. I want you to tell me what the Biblical description of Satan is. I am an atheist, and no I dont believe in it, and yes I do know what the answer is. I just want to see how many of you good little Christians have actually read the Bible.

why do you think your god created so many other planets? And why did your god choose the planet earth to create life?

It says in the New Testament in Peter 1, 2:14,15

Submit yourselves to every ordinance of man for the Lord's sake: whether it be to the king, as supreme;
Or unto governors, as unto them that are sent by him for the punishment of evildoers, and for the praise of them that do well.

Religious folks sometimes like to deny our evolutionary origins and regard themselves as a Special Creation of a deity, but isn't it far more interesting and exciting that we're the product of 4 billion years of a slow, unthinking, natural process than something magic'd into existence by a god snapping his fingers? If you need to feel special, surely there can't be anything much more special than being the result of an incalculably long unbroken chain of reproductively successful living organisms since the Earth was young? I think creationists should learn to appreciate that reality is *much* more fascinating and awe-inspiring than banal religious mythology.

Why do you believe in God?

Why don't you believe in God?

Why are you on the fence with this issue?

In my country Ireland, there has been many many cases of horrific sexual abuse involving catholic priests.

While I accept this was done by a minority, I cannot accept that despite those at the top (bishops and higher) knew what was going on but never reported the cases to the police. Instead these priests were simply moved on to different parishes were they inflicted more suffering on innocent children.

It was only when many of these children grew up and got the courage to speak out were these evil monsters brought to justce.

Why do you think the bishops never reported the priests involved to the police ?

And do you think these bishops should also be arrested for failing to report these monsters ?

Finally if the buck stops at the top, ie the pope , how can we seriously respect and take advice from a man whose organisation protects paedophiles from the law ?

It seems no need since some say that as long as you believe you are save. Others will just stick to their religions or sect and say that they're already Ok.
Others say that life has only meaning when there is death. Is that so?
Oh if it is all of the above its devoid of reason & logic & if that be true then I regret that I'm alive today.
