Thankfully religion is dying a death in a majority of the western world, even the US. Hopefully 100 years from now people are not so dumb and gullible and in need of nonsensical guidance like that.
--------------------------------------------------------------------
Religion has been around 45-200 thousand years.
Do present the evidence that dumb, gullible and religion are not good evolutionary traits, and that the human species is going to survive the next 100 years given all the existential man made threats that have risen with an inverse relation to the decline of religion.
As a non-religious person I find your belief in non-religion religious in nature and not well founded.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
It's a bit early to be on whatever it is you're on.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Ad hominem, very typical of people with no evidence for their belief system. How original.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No evidence of their belief system?
Non believers don't need any evidence for their 'belief system'. We aren't the ones that have based our lives around something that after thousands of years still has zero evidence of there being a god.

In the western world i said. Religion is dying a death, if you can't even acknowledge that then what is the point.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
And most of the rest of the world will catch up eventually.
All I need is evidence that a secular society works better than a religious one over the long term
But it doesn't exist because there is thousands of years of human beings continuing to evolve in a religious organisational structure despite all the persecution and wars, and barely any within a secular one.
As someone who isn't religious, I disagree with the level of secular faith that's being pushed on anyone that is religious, because that's all it is, faith.

Well perhaps you should given that it's proven evolutionary strategy for human beings.
Understanding there is no proof for god is primary school level, you need to get out of shorts and question it from the angle of whether it's net positive or negative to the human species regardless of how ridiculous it is.

Exactly. You're so clueless you don't understand what 'long term' means or that the recent shift away from religion isn't enough of a sample size to determine whether a secular one works.
You're not a critical thinker who questions their own thoughts, much like people who follow religion. You've never even looked at something like ddt and wondered whether your own brand of ideological nuthouse is going to inflict mass suffering

This guy.
DDT is a prime example of ideologists subverting science to cause the unnecessary deaths of millions of people in the name of their own beliefs.
I've no reason to believe the latest set of activists won't do the same thing because they 100% believe in their cause.
Religion in itself doesn't kill people, nutters do. They exist in droves in secular societies too.

It is negative, absolutely zero doubt. Every single war is religion based.
I see it first hand with family as well, my wifes family are mental and believe in god, their children are suppressed and not allowed to think or learn freely, any mention of dinosaurs for example is removed from their education, anything that goes against religion is removed from their learning. They couldn't be bridesmaids at our wedding as i am a dirty heathen. What parts of that are healthy?

HAHAHAHAHHAHA
Some points:
1. I'm an atheist, personally.
2. I don't see a problem at all with whatever people want to believe in the private sphere.
3. Religion, whether in the smallest, remotest tribes, or in the largest most technologically advanced societies, has played a key role in politics ever since human communities realised that having a shared moral currency was conducive to conflict resolution.
4. That last point is rarely considered by atheists when we talk about the wars and issues religion causes. Religion has played an absolutely essential role in the establishment of legal codes everywhere around the world, and as such has helped bring just as much peace as it has conflict, if not more.
5. Notwithstanding the above, in such multicultural, multi-denominational societies and can be found in the world today, I do not think it's a good idea at all for the dominant religion in any of those societies to be trying to dictate and impose their the laws on everyone else.
Good post, ioag. I especially agree about point four. It’s not something many are willing to engage with.

I hadn't actually posted on or read any of the thread, except that the last few comments were basically 'religion this, religion that'.
It was the topic of another thread that was going over the weekend too. A few fellow atheists there had been using the usual confrontational rhetoric we often use because we feel that all too often religion people try to ram religion down our throats, but I hadn't really gotten around to giving a proper opinion there. I just saw this and thought, "Why not?"
Come to think of it, I might as well copy and paste it on there.

It is negative, absolutely zero doubt. Every single war is religion based.
I see it first hand with family as well, my wifes family are mental and believe in god, their children are suppressed and not allowed to think or learn freely, any mention of dinosaurs for example is removed from their education, anything that goes against religion is removed from their learning. They couldn't be bridesmaids at our wedding as i am a dirty heathen. What parts of that are healthy?

DDT is a prime example of ideologists subverting science to cause the unnecessary deaths of millions of people in the name of their own beliefs.

DDT is a fine wrestling move, but I seriously doubt it has caused the death of millions.

Some points:
1. I'm an atheist, personally.
2. I don't see a problem at all with whatever people want to believe in the private sphere.
3. Religion, whether in the smallest, remotest tribes, or in the largest most technologically advanced societies, has played a key role in politics ever since human communities realised that having a shared moral currency was conducive to conflict resolution.
4. That last point is rarely considered by atheists when we talk about the wars and issues religion causes. Religion has played an absolutely essential role in the establishment of legal codes everywhere around the world, and as such has helped bring just as much peace as it has conflict, if not more.
5. Notwithstanding the above, in such multicultural, multi-denominational societies and can be found in the world today, I do not think it's a good idea at all for the dominant religion in any of those societies to be trying to dictate and impose their the laws on everyone else.

Good post, ioag. I especially agree about point four. It’s not something many are willing to engage with.

I hadn't actually posted on or read any of the thread, except that the last few comments were basically 'religion this, religion that'.
It was the topic of another thread that was going over the weekend too. A few fellow atheists there had been using the usual confrontational rhetoric we often use because we feel that all too often religion people try to ram religion down our throats, but I hadn't really gotten around to giving a proper opinion there. I just saw this and thought, "Why not?"
Come to think of it, I might as well copy and paste it on there.

Reading books is for middle-brain losers.
It’s brain m@sturbation bиllshit cowardice.
“I’m learning so much without risk!”
You’ve learned nothing.
Winners act.
Losers read.

Guess what guy who says a lot of smart and valuable things just tweeted this?
