I'm not interested in unprovable, vague deist-gods.
As Sam Harris once said, "If God exists, he is either evil or incompetent."
in his definition
thought in my framework, you could think god is evil because Entropy is natural
Christians, by definition, believe in a specific character described in a particular book.
but the fact people can do things that push entropy away, idk
that might be true if we mean the hardcore christians, cryo
there are some that dont think of it that way
and also, it doesnt necessarily matter
Deism was a cheap means for Enlightenment-era religious skeptics to softball their mounting atheism to a public still heavily divided along secular, institutional religious lines
That being, Yahweh, does not exist. Gods like him don't exist.
whether its something they literally believe or not, people act in the same way
I believe that people are animals, and shouldn't worry so much about animalistic tendencies. ||Except for the niggers, as they have proven to me time, and time again that they are more animal than man.||
thats the great thing about stories
if you think its literal or metaphorical, youll behave the same way
I disagree
so if you have some literal minded people that will believe anything theyre told, if its Christianity, chances are they wont be problematic people
evidently, thats been the historical case
Until they stone witches.
That may have been the case before the advent of modern methods of discerning scientific or historical fact, but as it stands today, believing in the unfalsifiable is dangerous because of the opportunity cost
@Cryosite or hate on gay people
Look, if they didn't want to be stoned, they shouldn't have turned Billy Bob into a frog.
well i do have one thing to add which is Hitler, Stalin, Mao, and North Korea
*newt
they posted themselves as being the ultimate high power with nothing above them
Lol, ok there we are
Hitler: catholic
You're wrong, but that's part of being a brony.
@Ethaneth hey fuck off
x% of the population believing in dumb harmless fairytales still robs us of a sizable number of people who could be contributing to and benefitting from objective understanding of the world
Hey fuck you, clopper
Don't lump me on with him
@Ethaneth eat my ass pedo
I don't eat horse ass, furry.
Hitler hated Christianity and praised Islam in his table talks
Stalin used the trappings if religious organization and set himself up in the role of God.
@Ethaneth too bad, rape time
thats what i mean
I think I won this exchange of wit.
Islam is the ideal cultural base for implementing fascist policies, so of course he'd praise them
