    Maybe those who say that religion/worldview/whatever shouldn't be allowed to be brought up are right. Seems like it's just too close to people's hearts to try and look at objectively or joke about, and we're always going to come to blows over it.

    Did you read the Dawkins article? Why should religion be any closer to our hearts than our political orientation or what we think about politics? There's no reason.

    nadagast, you are my evidence.

    you won't listen to anything I say so I'll let everyone else consider it.

    Yeah, I read the article. But in the end, belief's closer to the heart because it's such a personal thing, and it's closely entwined with how you see the world. It's spiritual. Politics is a purely earthly affair.

    The difference is that the existence of the sun cannot be questionned. God only has glory if you believe in him.

    It's just like saying "A man can no more give glory to a god by worshipping him than a lunatic can turn on the light by drawing a lightbulb on the walls of his cell"


    The problem is, here, that it seems many interpret "different beliefs" for "hate."
    I don't believe in the Bible, but I don't disrespect my father because he does. That doesn't stop me to laugh at that picture in the same way I laugh at french-bashing jokes.

    Wow, I finally signed up just for this thread.

    There's a difference between bashing the Bible, and bashing someones beliefs. If I bash anal sex, I'm not bashing **** people am I?

    Unfortunately, that sticker reflects the views of many non-Christians. While I can understand why some would be offended by it, it is not MEANT to be offensive. I believe that the artist created it as a humourous effort, and if you don't find it funny, that's your right.



    (offtopic)This is the part where I bust out my personal weapon against christians, Genesis 19:8. Read it!

    Well it seems to be the case. So I see his point.

    cereal, that's the whole point of the quote, he does still have glory even if you don't believe in him. Your statement is akin to saying that someone doesn't exist if I don't think they do. So... I don't think Flayra exists... poof.. there goes the forums and ns. I don't expect everyone to belive that God exists, but if you believe in tolerance and go around preaching it, why do I have to play the defensive role here?

    I'm out of the thread, nothing is actually being considered.



    oh, and Cold Nite gets a point.
  • NadagastNadagast Join Date: 2002-11-04 Member: 6884Members
    Ok I misinterpretted the quote?

    Sorry?


    I still don't think the quote is meaningful in anyway. God still has glory even if I don't believe in him? Not in my eyes he doesn't. Does Santa Claus have glory? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->


    Cold Nite: He hasn't given me anything to listen to... other than a quote which... doesn't advance this conversation. At all. Tell me something or ask me something before you say I'm closed minded, ok? <!--emo&:)--><img src='http://www.unknownworlds.com/forums/html/emoticons/smile-fix.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='smile-fix.gif' /><!--endemo-->

    Cold-Nite's link is awesome. I'm hoping that that's the full text of the Bible on there, and that 1/3 of my summer reading assignment just got a LOT easier.

    I actually have to agree with some of the people in here. While I don't find the image that ammusing, some people do need to grow thicker skins. I do think there is somewhat of a double standard on these forums though where you're not supposed to make fun of ethnic background, sexual orientation, etc, but if someone's a Christian then oh boy, lets all flame them.

    The Bible does say that Christians will be persecuted for their beliefs so it shouldn't be a surprise to anyone who has read the Bible.

A religion is an idea, and like any other it can be challenged and questioned. This is good and <b>normal</b>. Sexuality or race aren't ideas they are simply how you're born. Bashing an idea and bashing a way someone is born are two very different things.

    I asked for hard references, not more juvenile rhetoric!

    Why is it bad to criticise religion? Because there are more important things in the world than being right. That's something I'm starting to realise lately. Religion isn't rational, and it doesn't need to be. That doesn't mean it should be dismantled and discredited. It means something important to a lot of people, and there's <i>nothing wrong with that</i>.

    The one major proviso, which is "as long as it doesn't affect other people". As soon as people use religion for political gain, or to justify atrocities, then the power structure of the organisation needs to be re-examined. That kind of corruption is a factor of <i>any</i> kind of organisation, not merely religious ones.

    But getting back to my main point, if I understand it correctly your argument boils down to "there is a right way to think, and religion is not it. Therefore everyone who believes in religion must be made to see that they are wrong, because they are wrong". That's counterproductive and pointless; besides the fact that people should be allowed to believe whatever they like (aforementioned proviso included).
