This was my favorite comment from the article I posted, and it was from Richard Dawkins, from an excerpt from his book "The God Delusion".. " In it he wrote: "We are all atheists about most of the gods that humanity has ever believed in. Some of us just go one god further." Steve Warning, addicted to SETI crunching!

I am rather tired right now, Being right is not a democratic thing, being democratic is the right thing. |

BetrEGGER, so you're saying it's better to be wrong if the majority wants it? There are at LEAST two things wrong with that statement. I won't bother to elaborate. Engage irony detector. |

I am rather tired right now, See! Billions and Billions and Billions of atheists! (At least that's the impression you atheists are trying to create in order to fool more and more low information voters.) No wonder I usually just lurk in this forum and don't post. The hatred, vitriol and out-and-out bigotry here is appalling. You should both be ashamed of yourselves. If you want to understand why, let's change it up a bit. Imagine that Steve started a thread called "Famous Jews", and I replied with nothing more than a link to the "Celeb Jews" site... I didn't even say that I was Jewish! And you replied with: I am rather tired right now, See! Billions and Billions and Billions of Jews! (At least that's the impression you Jews are trying to create in order to fool more and more low information voters.) How do you feel about your words now? It sucks to be a member of the last religious group that people think it's OK to be openly bigoted and hateful against, I can tell you. I think I'll lurk elsewhere. Edit: P.S. Both of those lists are missing Dr. Eric Korpela and probably others on the SETI@Home team. Are they not "quality" people too? |

Apples and oranges. Sugar coat it however you like, you are still wrong. And your point is ridiculous, as Jews don't believe in the divinity of Jesus Christ, which is why they were persecuted for hundreds of years and hounded out of "Christian" countries all over the world, and eventually into gas chambers. [Edited to tone it down.] It was a mistake visiting this forum, so I'll undo that now and won't see your reply. |

Mr. Catguy, I had the same thought, but then I immediately wondered if it's worth the effort. Guy I stated Being right is not a democratic thing So how do you get the opposite out of it? |
