IQ of 186 muffins on the Mensa lunacy scalar I thought it was funny. Having words, non occurring events stated as fact, twisted and being misquoted is not so funny. I have always found people who do so to be dangerous and inhabiting many alternate realities, or their minds fractured to the four winds - and then you have many others reading the misquotes. I digress - That aside that one single line means many things pertinent/relevant to Ops question. Who am I to judge, am I impartial, if i believe in a god, what makes me impartial, or non biased to answer and so on. Plus Op, realone, knows fine well he made a generic across the board statement, so that aspect of his thread I did not truly understand, or why he chose to do so? What is a religion, what is a god(s), is outwith the remits of this thread. Are people biased – that’s how I read his thread. My answer is yes, some more than others. Now, I believe there to be no god, fooked if I know what an atheist is. But I do not go about trying to oppress the views of eg my mum. My problem with Religion, other than it makes no sense whatsoever, is that it has/is used as a carte blanche excuse to kill rape murder x 2 millennia…well those who believe in such an ethos. Or that hellfire, brimstone shoe apocalypse is imminent or you will not be raptured. Can I definitively prove/disprove (a) god? nope. lot of good potential new thread material in here. eg how do you define intelligence who was the most intelligent person who lived, what is a religion (tax shenanigans aside), what is a god, why my religion is the correct religion and all others heresy
