“Revealed faith is not harmless nonsense. It can be lethally dangerous nonsense. Dangerous because it give people unshakable confidence in their own righteousness. Dangerous because it gives them false courage to kill themselves, which automatically removes normal barriers to killing others. Dangerous because it teaches enmity to others labeled only by a difference of inherited tradition. And Dangerous because we have all brought into a weird respect, which uniquely protect religion from normal critics. ?Let’s now stop being so dammed respectful.” Richard Dawkins Michael Moore: Christian right is keeping U.S. in the ‘dark ages’ By David Ferguson. On “Real Time with Bill Maher,” host Bill Maher and a panel made up of MSNBC’s Rev. Al Sharpton, author and professional skeptic Richard Dawkins, filmmaker Michael Moore and former U.S. CIA operative Valerie Plame discussed radical Islam and the corrosive effects of religious zealotry on science and culture. Maher opined that Islam needs its own Pope Francis to ease the religion away from its radical, destructive tendencies. He asked Dawkins, who has had his own run-ins with Islam online due to a number of anti-Muslim tweets and other expressions of skepticism about the religion, what the author thinks about liberals who are hesitant to speak out against Islam for fear of being seen as racist. Christopher Hitchens. Casing “sin stones” and proclaiming that your manufactured God is the only path to salvation and the ancient is the only explanation for creation, not science encourages more religious holy wars and detracts against morality, fundamental fairness, peace and stopping terrorism.” Sunday Evangelical, Sermon. “Listen up right wing congregations You trust and love them and they trust and love you, you help feed them, clothe them, shelter them, provide medical care, let them choose leaders for you, put money in their offering plate, and do not judge them only if they worship the same religion as you do. But if they are gay, or worship another god, even if some of their believes are better for the environment like Buddhists and spiritual Science minded people who are agnostic, deists or logical positivists or atheists, you do not help them, instead you deny them equal fair opportunity no matter how hard they work or how intelligent they are, you discriminate against them, you deny them civil rights, you deny them fair opportunity, you persecute them, you act fundamentally unfair and evil towards them, you deprive them of clean water, vaccination, basic medical care unless they convert to your religion and let you take their land and control them.” Those goat herders and tiable warriors who wrote the scriptures in the bible and Quran did not even realize plagues were caused by bacteria, has been used for six thousand years to incite “ignorant mind-forg’d manacle” “poison’ with hatred, violence blood-curdling yells”, which made followers “thirsty for the murder those believing in another religion, those you label as rif-rarf from mosques. Men used religion as an excuse to be locked in combat with its violent and intolerant votarties, as excuses to now expose us to nuclear war. The poet Shelly once called the necessity of atheism. One cannot logically attribute one’s presence to the laws of biology, (including evolution) and physics (including E=MC2, that we are all made of star dust, and the Big Bank 13.7 Billion years ago) and then say the origin of life was part the plan of grand design, which began only 6,000 years ago according to the old testament, and God created “Eve” from Adams’ rib, all animal life died in the great flood which was not requested by Noah on his ark (well over 10,000,000 species) There is an increasing pathetic solipsism in all the arguments offered, with increasing desperation, against Einsteins E=MC2, creation began with the Big Bang 13.7 billion years ago and that Darwins theory of evolution has become a law of science with the discovery of genes and that we share over 98% of our DNA with chimps and have traced human DNA back to over one million years. We are more closely related to Chimps than Chimps are related to Gorillas. Our DNA blue prints are more like the DNA blue prints of a Chimp than the blue print of a Ford half ton truck is like the blue print of a competing Chevy or Dodge half ton truck. Human remains of our species, Homo sapiens, have been carbon dated in existence for over 200,000 years. Our earlier ancestors, who used Stone Age tools and had already evolved from apes date back to over a million years ago. In order to subscribe to monotheistic religions, one must belief that humans were born, struggled and expired for over 152,000 years before the Jewish and Christian religions were practiced, with an indifferent God who only decided to intervene and redeem during the last six thousand years and then only for people in remote areas of the middle east until about 300 AD there by forsaking all people in Africa and who had migrated into Europe, Asia, Australia and the Americas. Ron Kent Hooper: Well, there are 400 billion stars in our galaxy alone, and more than 100 billion other galaxies with at least the same number of stars. There are life forms on other worlds who believe in other gods and billions of those life forms are far more intelligent than humans and gods created in their own image are far more intelligent and do not need or want to be worshiped like a warlord. Instead their more advanced gods obviously advocate, like atheists do, and promote the best general welfare for their own entire species and other intelligent species on their planets. The ignorant goat herders and war lords who invented the Christians and Islamic gods, invented an ignorant infantile evil god who wrote about his temper tantrums in the bible and Koran. . Perhaps their Jesus died on billions of other worlds to save their planets form global warming and their species from war?
