Prince Poison Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Let's see it this way:First we talk about ChristianityThe medieval time. A time of ignorance and hipocrisy were the religion had the right to kill you for your believings. If you tried to explain something with science and study other than religion you future would be to be burnt alive as a heretic. Christianity has brought many deaths and bad things to civilization many wars and suffering. So my dear friends do you think that this religion has brought us any good?Discuss and remember the rules no flamming/spamming To be cntinued with islamism Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JesusofChaos™ Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 ^ i completely agree Dj. I am a devote atheist and anyone one who is religious and talks about religion being good and helping people has never heard of the cursades and all the middle eastern conflicts Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NP Sage Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 The word extremist can be used here. Do not confuse me with my ancestors. I USED to be a christen. There are many things that I now demand answers for. I have always been curious how do atheists decide whats right and whats wrong? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Flame Dragon Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 While they have their problems they are useful. They give people some thing the trust and believe in. And for a few it gives them the comfort of knowing that death isn't the end. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Supreme Gamesmaster Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 The Crusades and medieval heretic burning weren't the fault of Christianity, they were the fault of its practitioners. I personally find it useless because it supports submission and servitude and condemns independence and open-mindedness, and because it suggests that our existence is merely the plaything of some ascended being, but it has brought less harm than it is credited for bringing. The Crusades were the fault of people who took their religion the wrong way, not the religion itself. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yankee Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 I'm Athiest I belive, but I think religeon is agood thing, it gives man a reason for the things around him that he cannot explain, and gives him rules to live by, I think it is a good thing, not that i'm relegious.

NP Sage Posted March 3, 2008 Report Share Posted March 3, 2008 Sadly as soon as a certain person gets on, anybody who believes in any religion will be harassed, made fun of, and misquoted. You have been warned. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HORUS Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 Bad Religion, such as Chrisianity, is bad. Bad Religions will force conversion and are generally hypocritical. Buddhism and other forms of religion similar to it, are not bad. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Exiro Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 It is true that people were burnt alive and things much worse because of things that are now considered very normal. But if they had no religion, there would probably be another reason why those things weren't allowed and those people should be burnt alive.It was just the stupidity of humanity in general at those times.

Bloodrun Posted March 4, 2008 Report Share Posted March 4, 2008 ok here is what i think, and i have gone over this many many timesi believe that religion, is just for reasurance, (if you dont like what i am about to say, then, dont read it)god isnt real, the bible was written men, and in "gods" terms, men are not perfect, the bible isnt perfect, the bible is a story, all that hype about going to church doing this to be a christian doing that and you go to hell, is all fake, people believe in god, to have reassurance, someone they can confide, and when people try and force other people to join something they do not yet believe in, should not be happening, you dont, correction, you shouldnt force belief onto a person, becuase then, its not really a belief, is it?
