@MrWagman11 Your wording implies that some religions are “made-up” and others are legitimate. Please provide us with an example of a religion that isn’t “made-up”.

@jonathan1stewart Well said. I couldn’t agree with you more.

@MrWagman11 I think the only difference between Mormonism other “mainstream” religions is that their creation happened in historical times and their myths are therefore possible to debunk with solid historical data. We know Scientology is junk because we can see L. Ron Hubbard’s idiocy in context. Mormonism began recently enough that we know it’s founders were frauds. Abrahamic religions however can hide behind the fog of time to validate their “miracles.”

@jonathan1stewart All religions are based on superstition, lies, desperation and fantasy. Now this isn’t going to be logical in any sense of the word, but some religions are obviously more fake than others.

@MOONDOGGIESWTF Happily, no point in arguing with someone who hasn’t got a fucking clue.

That’s you, by the way.

@MultiUniv3rsal I like the part where you made an argument. You’re just another dime a dozen, obama chode sucking meat head. See how easy it is to assert stuff? I just said it therefore its true right? Fuck off please.

@mike000000000000able that is blindly stupid. we know that privatization makes any area of the economy purely about profit. there are countless times when this is a HORRIBLE idea. making money and doing what is right and best for society are often in direct conflict.

@MOONDOGGIESWTF That might be the dumbest bullshit anyone has ever written, ever.

@MOONDOGGIESWTF Bullshit. False equivalencies and misinformation on your part.

@SelfImmolator coun’t agree more!

I’m an atheist. I don’t belive in Keynesian Economics. I beleive that privatization would improve most government programs. I think you missed a large group of atheists with this talk.
Written by Loraxtribe about 3 months ago.

@MrWagman11 You’re right. It’s almost as obviously fake as its parent religion – christianity! Good thing you are not bamboozled as easily as mitt romney. Virgin birth – what poppycock! Another good thing is that you and I can agree on these things so closely.

@MrWagman11 All other religions are just as transparant, so Romney is entirely typical of presidential candidates.

Thanks for that comment, couldn’t agree more!

@ richarddawkinsdotnet Hi Sean. Seems like you deleted your response to me again. Good that I have the email. No, I absolutely don’t agree with you and your idea that the US should lead the world. Into what? An aera of Mc Donalds and Burger King? To respect “religions” like Scientology, the mormons or Western BC? Or into an aera of great health care system? And when it comes to Human Rights Abuses see your own country, too. First fix your own country before you want lead the world anywhere.
