[quote=Magic Magnum]I never felt blinded either as long as I was religious.But once I became an atheist and looked at everything without there being a God Element I was able to see far more of the world.And most of the things I've found with religion wasn't from my own family but from other religious people.My family was a whole "Ignore the entire Bible" kind, which I also had issues with.Cause the Bible is their religion, what they are supposed to be following. It makes no sense to ignore the thing and still call yourself a follower of that religion.Some disproven, others updated.But always on the basis of proof and evidence given.It's open minded in that if it's proven wrong it will adapt and change to account for that new information.Science admits we don't know everything, and goes out to find the truth.Religion, makes a claim and sit's with it, not ever proving it.If arguments are given otherwise, it just gets written off as blasphemy and/or the devils work.

Oh...you're an atheist. Formally religious. This all makes everything clear. Yeah. It's different sides of the same coin. I'd say it takes faith to believe there is nothing out there. You can't prove or disprove the existence of a deity, in whatever shape or form.

Fuck. I'm being drawn into my own pet peeve. :arghfist

[quote=Nargle]You can't argue religion with science or science with religion because they are two entirely different things.

As much as you like to seem informed you are [i]so ignorant .[/i]
What's nice about religion is that it gives you moral guidelines. Some people should not be left to decide right or wrong on their own.[/quote]
