I dont give a shit about posturing one way or another. Clinton (or bush, or whoever) can be religous in their private lives all they want. It's went the politics of this country get influenced by the family-value crap religous right and their ideals that the problems start. 2.)This is the most idiotic fucking thing I have ever heard. Ripping down trees and poluting the earth ruins it. If you are too fucking stupid to realize this, you can't be helped. 3.)Again, it's not who it's coming from, it's what they want to do. the christian right in this country is a powerful (and frankly scare) force that, if they had their way, would have us living in a single language, single religion barracaded society. 4.)Whatever. I hope the debacle of the last few years wakes up the large group of seldom-voters and helps get rid of that schmuck. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sundog Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 Spiritualism seems good for what ails ya, as the feeling you get on those scenic mountain tops. Religions often restrict you to their beliefs vs others. (Fairweather) Josh, you seem far closer to the humane viewpoint. 4) G.one W.acko by 2004.

Fejas Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 science is a religion, its just better documented than any other... that being said, every single veiwpoint on the planet has some truth to it.... seems kidda pointless to argue a veiwpoint to some one when they are unwilling to listen to it... most people speak but not hear what comes out...

joshs Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 Science is not a religion. Religion is based on dogma; science is based on reality and the observation thereof. Religion resists change; science is constantly changing as we learn more about reality and adjust our theories to better represent it. Religion depends on faith (i.e., believing something for no good reason); science encourages skepticism, experimentation, and open-mindedness. Religion seeks to impose moral judgements on behavior and beliefs; science seeks to expose useful information about the world we live in.

Gaston_Lagaffe Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 A few weeks back I read a review in the New York Times of the (very large) manifesto of the guy who was one of the founders of Al-Queda. According to the writer, it seems that some of Al-Queda's main peeves with the western world, but the US in particular, are: 1) the US Gov. separates religion from government (you could argue this point though), 2) Christianity separates religion from science, whereas Islam merges the two, 3) Individual freedom, particulary the freedom of women. Regretfully, I couldn't find the article again to site it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joshs Posted May 7, 2003 Share Posted May 7, 2003 Fejas (and DFA), I don't understand why you think I'm being closed-minded. What I posted was based on my own observation of the words & actions of religious groups and of the scientific community. Is there any one of my points in particular that you think is untrue? -Josh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
