In the US, 22% of the population are CERTAIN that Jesus is coming back in the next 50 years, and another 22% think that it's likely.
The good news of Christ's return, though, can only occur following desperately bad news. Mushroom clouds would be welcomed. "End time thinking," Harris said, "is fundamentally hostile to creating a sustainable future."

Meh, who gives a shit what other people say about other peoples religions. I can't think of a bigger waste of time than sitting down and reading more of Sam Harris's bullshit.

(or Falwell's bullshit, or Pat Robertson's bullshit, or Acmendindajadad's bullshit... people should just keep their religious criticisms to themselves)

one thing that depresses me, is that: ok, we analyze all these problems with religious thought, but what can we actually do about it? we can't force people at gunpoint to renounce their faith because:
a) it wouldn't be an honest statement from them
&
b) it would make us fascists
but i don't anything changing through "dialog" or "discussion".
so i dunno, seems like everything is fucked.

you can just reason and reason hoping they'll convert to your side, if you don't want to leave it to others or themselves to get them enlightened

i have had arguments with religions friends that go around and around in circles.
"if there's no god, you're saying the universe just came out of nothing."
"well, you're saying god just came out of nothing"
"no, god has always existed"
"maybe the universe has always existed"
etc, etc, etc...
my main argument is always that it makes more sense that things become more complex over time, so it doesn't make sense that the first thing in the universe was a perfect being capable of creating everything else from the get-go.

somethings wrong with the world when a fag can click a thread about solid cocks and not see a single shred of photographic evidence therein.
