    america, the democracy. led by the commander of all military forces.

    that sounds like something you'd read about a country in South America, not North America.
    but the president is the commander in chief of all military forces.

      It should have a bias. The whole point is that religion is nonsensical because the things it purports to explain are eventually explained by science. The idea is to point at an inductive "proof" of the falseness of religious belief. Not making a statement about the validity of the argument, but if you think most religious believers frame their belief explicitly in terms of the "god of the gaps" argument you're wrong.
      I think "most religious believers" have THEIR OWN PERSONAL beliefs. I could be wrong on this, but then again I am a better source, as I actually have a belief in God, and you don't. Since you don't believe in god, you're left to only "believe" (for the sake of arguement) what you see and hear form others.

      I guess it never occurred to you that if there are 400 ppl sitting in a church listening to the same person speaking, they all can and do have different beliefs and interpretations. If one person in the entire church (let's go my way, Lutheran) says that they believe in the bible word for word, it's a different belief than me (who's more of 'your' god of gaps) and a different belief than the person who thinks aliens and god exists. Quite simply, you're lumping your interpretations of my own beliefs with the limited number of observations you've made (probably indirectly too) of people who I'd agree are idiots.

      So if you think most religious believers explicitly don't follow a god of gaps (i seriously hate calling it this, but will go with it for the sake of argument), then you're just plain making generalizations about a culture in which you seem to have little experience, understanding, or lack of attachment sufficient to not sound like a chritian-hating smartass.

      Because quite honestly, you don't have any more insight into what made us as some tribal dude who's never heard of einstein. Unless you're some great scientist, you're just going off of other's theories. Which is what you're complaining about with religion. Yours made be based on science, but in the end, they offer no actual answers that religion doesn't. And any evidence you can find in science is subject to the flaws of how it was observed and the bias of who observed it. just like religion.

      • Why is every nerd on the internet obsessed with NWO bull crap. Bush is NOT an alien, we are NOT stock for the queen of england. Obama is NOT the "omega" president just because u can switch some letters around in his name doesent make it real. I thought alot of people here were smart but you sound like fucking idiots with your conspiracy theory shit. You ant trust what you read on the internet any more than you can trust fox news of your local newspaper. Obama won with a land slide decision and im betting not every single one of those votes was a black man voting for a black president. Which leads me to believe he had to do something right to get where he is now. Dont bother questioning him as president until you see what he does in office.

          why do something sensible like that when you could ignore giant concepts and take minute details and contort them into enormous theories that are quite nonsensical?

              (Reuters) GM shares hit 65-year low amid liquidity concerns
              GM shares have lost nearly 40 percent since Friday when the company reported a deeper-than-expected third-quarter loss and said its cash burn rate had accelerated, as an extended slump in car sales raised questions about the future of the U.S. auto industry.

              Whitehead sees slump worse than Depression
              NEW YORK (Reuters) - The economy faces a slump deeper than the Great Depression and a growing deficit threatens the credit of the United States itself, former Goldman Sachs chairman John Whitehead, said at the Reuters Global Finance Summit on Wednesday.

              Worse than Great Depression?
              (Reuters) Nov. 12 - Former Goldman Sachs Chairman John Whitehead says the current financial crisis could "be a worse depression than the one in the 1930s."

                  are you just going to quote yourself until the end of time

                  because that would literally be talking to yourself, on an internet forum

                  I mean I appreciate you taking up the tinfoil hat niche of the forum, just checking on your priorities.
                  My father in law was telling me over Thanksgiving about this amazing bartender at some bar he frequented who could shake a martini and fill it to the rim with no leftovers and he thought it was the coolest thing he'd ever seen. I then proceeded to his home bar and made four martinis in one shaker with unfamiliar glassware and a non standard shaker and did the same thing. From that moment forward I knew he had no compunction about my cock ever being in his daughter's mouth.

                              This post is so wide of the mark I don't even know how to respond to it. You're completely misunderstanding me, whether deliberately or not, and I also think your anger is misdirected. Attempting to paint me as some sort of Dawkinsesque agitator is frankly ludicrous. I'm about as sympathetic an atheist to the religious position as you're likely to find.

                              And the last paragraph is a joke. The old "you BELIEVE in science, just like we BELIEVE in religion" canard? Seriously? You can't do better than that?
