People tend to think that if you're a Creationist or have a religion different than Athiesm you deny all science.

I hate it when people judge on one general statement.

Not really...
What are you going to do about it? Cry to me some more that I am not just like you?
Unfortunately the teacher will probably get in trouble for this.
Haha, who are you? Some oblivious cigarette? I think so. I don't care who you are or whatever you believe in. Your ego is off the chart, and you are obviously in need of help. forget you.

Pure genius in idiocy.

The funny thing is, the guy that said it is the smartest kid in the class.
(By it, i mean the "God Made Athiests" comment)

How about stop calling us Bible Thumpers. You are the ones forcing science upon us.
You guys do it too, so I wouldn't be talking.
That's nice. How about you make up your own blatant lies instead of the ones your daddy says.
This.

yes
I believe that life was created by some mysterious force, but we took over from there.

It's funny how most devoted scientists way back in the Renaissance/Enlightenment era (not specific enough D:) were religious

At least, that's what I learned in AP Euro

So it's only wrong when we do it? When you do it, it's fine, because you are obviously superior.

Yeah, let's get angry at people because we have no evidence to support my beliefs. I can afford to have an ego in the face of something like that.

Brain compartmentalization.

that's because it was a long time ago.

Because we have evidence and not the threat of hell.

back then, gods were giant big humanoid figures, or normal sized humans with super powers.

Religion was a huge thing back there.

Which is why they hated witches so much. Even Pirates were religious.

You are trying to prove that I am stupid, but in effect are really showing how mentally deficient you are. Can you even read? Much less, can you even understand my post? I think not.

What a schmuck, you are so misinformed. Probably because you are stupid.

Quote from: Kingfloat
   * The Crusades.
    * The Inquisition.
    * Witch trials in Europe and America.
    * The Divine right of Kings (valid until killed by another Divinely-appointed King).
    * Missionaries destroying/converting smaller, "heathen" religions and cultures.
    * Missionaries such as Mother Teresa.
    * The demonization of other religions, e.g. Christianity demonizing Pagans ("They're devil-worshippers!"), the Romans demonizing Christians ("They're atheists and cannibals!").
    * Persecution of Heretics - e.g. Galileo for daring to suggest that the Earth orbits the Sun.
    * Children dying because their parents refused them medical treatment on religious grounds; relying instead on faith-healers and prayer.
    * Slavery, supposedly supported by scripture ("Slaves, obey your earthly masters with respect and fear, just as you would obey Christ.", St.Paul, Ephesians 6:5)
    * Holy wars - followers of different faiths (or even the same faith) killing each other in the name of their (benevolent, loving and merciful) gods.
    * The destruction of great works of art considered to be researchographic/blasphemous, and the persecution of the artists.
    * Censorship (often destructive) of speech, art, books, music, films, poetry, songs and, if possible, thought.
    * Persecution/punishment of blasphemers (Salman Rushdie still has a death sentence on him), and blasphemy laws in general.
    * The requirement of theism in order to stand for public office or to testify in court.
    * Serial killers believing they are doing the work of Satan (or sometimes Jesus).
    * Often-fatal exorcisms by priests believing they are destroying the work of Satan.
    * People suffering dreadful injury or death in the belief that their faith has made them invulnerable (e.g. people climbing into lion enclosures at zoos, with a Bible as protection).
    * Whole societies divided by minor differences in belief or doctrine, often resulting in violence.
    * Mass Self Deletes of cult-members following a charismatic leader who believes the world is about to End (most recently, the Heaven's Gate and Solar Temple cults - there will be more as we approach the year 2000).
    * The attempted genocide of followers of a particular faith (e.g. the Jewish Holocaust, "ethnic cleansing" in former Yugoslavia).
    * Blood sacrifices to appease the Gods, or to ensure a good harvest. (The Aztecs made daily human sacrifices to ensure that the Sun would rise. Or did they? )
    * The practice of "female circumcision" (more accurately termed genital mutilation).
    * The discouragement of rational, critical thought (resulting in young-earth creationists, for example).
    * Uncontrolled population growth caused (or at least helped) by churches prohibiting birth-control and abortion. (You can also add : unwanted pregnancies, ill-fated forced marriages, and pregnant teenagers condemned to a life in mental institutions to avoid embarrassing their families.)
    * The spread of loveually transmitted diseases (e.g. AIDS) due to churches prohibiting the use of condoms.
    * Believers whipping, impaling, poisoning or crucifying themselves during religious festivals as a demonstration of their faith and piety.
    * Self Delete bombers taught to believe that martyrs go straight to Paradise.
    * The indoctrination of children into the religion of their parents, giving them an arbitrary, life-long belief that is almost entirely dependent on their place of birth.
    * Women treated as second-class citizens or even slaves (article : Islam's Shame).
    * Pentecostal snake-handlers (Augusta Chronicle news article)
    * Persecution of homoloveuals (Genocide of gay and lesbian youth)
    * Abuse of power, authority and trust by religious leaders (for financial gain or loveual abuse of followers and even children).
    * Minor religions ("cults") stockpiling weapons to defend themselves from the Armies Of Satan (i.e. the police and the government).

That's nice, please kindly forget off or show some evidence for your bullstuff.
