Gnostic Christian Bishop

I think you are misusing the word faith. If a student is poor in math and has not begun a logic trail in his mind that recognizes how 2 + 2 = 4, throw...

I can agree with this. You are talking about faith based on facts and a logic trail. Religious faith is just based on hope without any facts. Regards ...

Science, I think, recognize their own shortcomings and at least tread lightly till they are sure of their hit. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=KRLR9jh...

Faith without facts is for fools. Thor is the only real god. Prove me wrong. That idiocy is what faith leads to. Regards DL
June 27, 2019 at 15:21
I agree but did not want to put that as an O.P. because the theists would just run away as is their habit when they cannot do apologetics for their go...
June 27, 2019 at 15:19
True. A belief I am happy to do apologetics for while Christians just run away instead of trying to do apologetics that they would lose if the topic h...

True, but if you look at history, you will see that most of the wars have been religious wars. Sure, that was still a person starting it but for relig...

That is good news. Nice to know you are not homophobic and misogynous or can think a real prick of a god is somehow good. I think it our duty to fight...

I am hostile to all who have given up thinking to be a sheeple to a genocidal son murdering prick of a god whose religion grew with inquisitions due t...

We are the top predator so the rest of the non-human world would certainly say yes, as they would like to be the top predator. For all I know, they wo...

FYPOV, that made sense old friend. Regards DL
June 26, 2019 at 15:37
In thinking, true, in actions, I would not use the term funny. Given that they have grown by inquisitions and jihads, I would say they are immoral and...
June 26, 2019 at 15:34
Gays, women, and all others who are discriminated against without a just cause. All who hate inquisitions and jihads, be they used to kill or to just ...

Yes. I have listened to some of his work and agree with a lot of it. Not all though, although I cannot recall what I did not agree with him on. Regard...
June 25, 2019 at 17:11
No. If I had supernatural powers, nothing would stop me from popping in and out of other dimensions and being able to interact with them. Even Yahweh ...

The tax exempt and tax breaks that religion enjoy is in the 80 billon a year range in the U.S alone. What they save and keep has to be made up by the ...

Why did you ignore my question and returned with this garbage instead? You seem to want a one way conversation and are tripping over your own tongue w...
June 24, 2019 at 16:01
By applying logic and reason of course. That is how you do it as well. No? Regards DL
June 24, 2019 at 15:55
I do recognize the truth of my sentence, or I would not have written it. The rest of what you said makes no sense to me as I recognize that the condem...
June 24, 2019 at 15:37
We have no idea how close we are, knowledge wise, to all that can be known and what can be done. Speculative nonsense is all we can have of what we do...

Their belief is costing you your hard earned dollars. Do you like to pay for someone else's fantasy? Regards DL
June 24, 2019 at 14:36
True that reality is a collective hunch. Still better to not add to the objective reality by adding a fantasy that one must believe in to be saved. Do...
June 24, 2019 at 14:34
Science would disagree. To not at least stick to what can be known, and think what cannot be known is real, would be people giving up logic and reason...
June 23, 2019 at 16:00
I agree and think so by a long shot. Regards DL
June 23, 2019 at 15:56
You put nothing that I agree with and speculate on so many issues that I would not know where to start my critique. You have already taken the defeate...

From looking at the stats, I note how little it would actually take to reverse the trend of the rich stealing from the poor. Crumbs from the rich tabl...

It would be nice if it was only the fools money, but non-believing tax payers have to make up the billion dollar short fall that religious tax exempti...
June 23, 2019 at 15:23
Because if they do not, they are inferior and not worthy of us. Secular law has already shown it superiority to theistic law and morality and if our g...
June 23, 2019 at 15:19
I agree and that is why I see the opposite as evil. I also agree that our beliefs are what we base reality on and that is why I dislike the notion of ...
June 23, 2019 at 15:15
I think we all do that and that is why it is important to have ones thinking in reality instead of fiction or the supernatural. If you use junk member...
June 23, 2019 at 15:10
I disagree. In much of the time you see, to admit to atheism meant death. The inquisitors and jihadists have been around a long time. Regards DL I wou...
June 23, 2019 at 15:07
I agree, given that the main reason for joining a religion is insecurity, our tribal natures and need of fellowship. I do not mind people appeasing th...
June 23, 2019 at 15:00
I agree. They should go Gnostic and seek god their god within. https://imgur.com/9eoBEyo Regards DL

I see us as individually quite bright and as collectively quite stupid thanks to having too many leaders and not enough flexibility in thinking of the...
June 18, 2019 at 17:48
I disagree and if the religious cannot take the truth, that is their problem. If the religious were interested in humanitarian causes, they would not ...

Of course it is all a show. It is all done for entertainment and to distract us from the reality that we will continue to be slaved to our oligarch ma...

I agree and doubt that it can be stopped even though the right wing nationalists are putting up a good fight. Regards DL
June 17, 2019 at 19:43
Our main evolutionary driver is our selfish gene. If you do not agree, then tell us what you think is driving us all to try to be the fittest of our s...
June 17, 2019 at 19:39
Always my pleasure that. Regards DL
June 17, 2019 at 19:36
Yes. That is why I have given reasons why we are the most insecure while all you do is deny it, while at the same time saying that other animals are m...
June 16, 2019 at 19:37
Incorrect. They can run while all we humans can do is be eaten. That is why we are the most insecure animal on the planet and why we default to cooper...
June 16, 2019 at 19:34
You are agreeing with the premise are you? Regards DL
June 16, 2019 at 15:58
You have not looked. We are so cooperative that we might go extinct because of it. Have you noted the damage to Earth because we cooperate too much to...
June 16, 2019 at 14:48
It has everything to do with the fact you point out. A deer can escape on it's own quite quickly, while humans cannot for the longest time and that is...
June 16, 2019 at 14:46
That is because I am sure of my logic and reason. Regards DL
