you have done nothing to back it up

@M4Gunner unless you're white <:makes_you_think:382980749780844554>

God definitely gets points in my book for dropping an orbital strike on Sodom and Gomorrah.

Name a culture in the past that *didn't* have slavery.

Pro tip

you cant

No I said that moral progress moved against religion, and that secular humanism has civilised the west. Secular humanism is a result of that pushing against religion for centuries

until the quackers

It's really hard to prove one way or another

"against religion"

Yea when God obliterated thousands of people for doing things he didn't like, how loving and caring

No no no, it gets points for cool factor

Reddit tier stuff my dude

I like this discussion, there's a nice spectrum of ideas

Here you go

need i say more

@radeon I don't read the bible for enlightenment or advice, I read it for entertainment on the rare occasions when I do. Or just to learn about it.

I'm right about the middle there

No virgin birth?

I'm on the fence about no deity

Can anyone here give me a decent argument for why religions should be taken any more seriously than other faith-based anti-reason ideologies like communism?

Deist?

The unmoved mover?

Well..... *define deity*

Uh, nice architecture?

The first mover @Fitzydog

idk, maybe, probably

Aristotle concept

@Fitzydog there's no good reason to believe in something without evidence that's basically the best argument against god

@radeon because there’s about 100 times more truth in the bible than you’re willing to admit

@radeon Define 'God'

Do you believe there can be an infinite regress?

idk, it's a useful societal tool and it has its place, but in an ideal society it would not be necessary to use religion to hold it together.

@PooDiePie care to elaborate?

@Fitzydog any and all deities and indeed supernature as a concept

"deity"?

Ask Bakeon about the first mover please

Yeah, that's an interesting concept

I think he still has me blocked
