lol tis true.

science vs religion, NEVERENDING. Religion is a drug, like a lot of things are, religion works to ease the mind, to "escape" the burdens. It is a way to "release" yourself. I choose to lift weights/workout, others choose to snort or drink a shitload. Perhaps religion would hold more of a basis if I didnt see million dollar business buildings (churches) being erected, if i didnt see the local clergymen or whatever driving 60,000 mercedes. Even is this was all true, bible = 100%, the present day status of the church and what religion causes turns me away from it completely. I have complete respect for those who hold their religious beliefs, alls I wish is for them to respect my beliefs, which is NEVER the case. In the end it does not really matter i suppose. If im going to hell for not accepting god in my life, then thats fine, I know a lot of cocksuckers that believe in god and will go to heaven, besides al capone suggested that hell must be a awesome place since all the religious people say it is evil, haha.
Look at this im using words from al capone in a religious talk, haha.
Here are some thoughts I like to think about....

Religion is the opiate of the masses

What kills me is the way people approach the Bible vs the Theory of Evolution question. Bible thumpers believe the stories are real, and if science can't prove otherwise, it must be accepted as being the truth.
That is the wrong way of looking at it.
The ONUS is on the believers to PROVE these events actually happened. Not the other way around.

That's actually incorrect...if the polar icecaps melted, it would flood every square inch of land.

The theory of evolution is just that.........a theory. You can not prove a theory to be fact........it is more a question of how certain you are that the theory is correct (of course you base this on an analysis of the evidence).

And a belief is just that...a belief.


At least science tries to answer questions...

Nah. I don't really have faith to begin with. I know there has to be SOMETHING bigger than our little planet here... but I don't understand how some people can believe completely in this kind of thing.

Those same people discredit science and the Theory of Evolution because there's "no way" that could happen.

Yet this ark could?

God is just testing our faith to see if you believe in what can't be possible. If you don't believe you get tortured for eternity in flames. How nice.

You are wrong. If the polar ice caps melted the sea level would rise by about 60 metres. That doesnt even come close to covering every square inch of land even when you include the 7 meters that could come from melting ice in Greenland.

Of course for the polar ice caps tomelt some serious shit would have to happen in terms of temperature rises. Currently, the temperature in Antarctica (the melting of the Arctic would not affect sea levels as it is effectively a big ice-berg.......think Archimedes) never gets above freezing. NEVER. For that to melt you would have to raise the worlds temperature a lot over extended periods.

I could argue that religion tries to answer questions........it just doesn't use objective observations and critical thinking to do so.

And a belief is just that...a belief.
