Well yes. That's kind of the point isn't it. Good article. Although I very much disagree that religious belief in science is as irrelevant as sexuality, gender or creed as this article suggests. If you read one of my posts further back I agree that science and religion can indeed go hand in hand...

Now that, I cannot agree with.

Largely, I agree.

Yes, people do marry science and spirituality, there are several schools of thought with this at it's core. It's interesting but for me, the two, in their purest forms cannot exist together but ultimately both science and religion serve the same purpose: To search for answers to how and why we...

Yes, true as far as I know. It's also true that just about EVERYBODY in the 16/1700's would have believed in God so it's not really a stretch to think that even the greatest scientific minds of the time would have searched for a way to marry science and religion. Some still do. However this...

I think all of us can agree that any correct thinking person will outright reject the idea of "god" in any form, those that still cling to the dribble covered comfort blanket of religion simply don't have the will or the tools to further the human race. This is evidenced in the fact that science...

I think one can dismiss theories that cannot be backed up in ANY way whatsoever.

Humans tell stories. That is what we've done for millennia. From exaggerating the tales of a bison hunt around the campfire, through wondering minstrels to tales we tell our children to help them sleep at night. They serve a very valuable purpose that eases our path through life. Religion is one...

Although they do believe their emperor to be a living God. Sad fact is that people do conform to religion in many forms, let's hope we all evolve past this nonsense at some point.

I didn't say it was a valid excuse. I didn't even use it in that context. I'm saying for centuries the British have treated the world like it's personal slave, these religious hold grudges for centuries so don't be surprised about what's happening. We caused most of it.

Just as a last point of fact, I was not solely talking about ancestors and the past, I was talking about our ancestors AND present day.

What on earth are you going on about? Anyway, this is essentially a right wing thread with a couple of left leaning posters getting rounded on by the usual mob. The more intelligent users left this thread ages ago, I shall take a leaf out of their book and leave you to it.

I disagree. As far as I'm concerned as long as they obey our laws and pay their taxes they can do what they like. You know, like the Brits have done abroad for centuries. Except we make up our own laws and ignore taxes.

Everyone treated equally at public school. Fit on or **** off. Not a way I'd like to see a country run.

Haywards Heath?

:facepalm:

The one good thing about these threads, although solely used as a platform for the "I can shout louder than you" wing of NSC it does at least keep the less complex members off the more interesting threads.

I don't know why you bother engaging with them Dave, they don't even had much of an opinion, they only come on here to wind people up. Stop giving them fuel.

You've spent 233 pages saying the same thing over and over. I'm no model NSC poster but my god man! Do you never shut up? Do you never get bored cos everyone else does. Give it a bloody rest man.

Oh. My. ****ing. GOD. Shut the **** up you knobber.
