On this forum we are all equal, once you realise that then you will have a far better time on here.
For the record I don't knock people for what they believe in.

"Most"?

How do you know that? Are there statistics?

[user104658]

Also, to clarify further, no one is disputing that SOME scientists follow a religion. Who has said that? What is being disputed is "Truth"'s claim that;

Because it is fake news. It is false. It is a lie or a misunderstanding of the facts. Full stop.

The most popular thread on TiBB right now is by a bloke who wants compassion for all men because some other bloke said that women were better than blokes at opposing. Because this is sexist apparently, and all men have suffered greatly at the hands of this man-hating Mark man.

Its time to delete TiBB

For clarification on my view of the subject, not having a religion does not equal not having faith. I'm not atheist nor am I agnostic.

Opposing things is equal between the sexes, as we are first socialised and then conditioned as to what we oppose to as a basis for our views. Whether they be cultural, social, moral or spiritual.

[Kizzy]

And control...you forgot control.

[Livia]

It's a pointless discussion. If you don't have faith then you don't understand what it is. If you don't understand what it is, people who have it must be indoctrinated. There's no point in a discussion where one side isn't listening to the other.

No, actually it's tediously inconvenient.

I've mentioned my cousin before... devoutly religious and a physicist at Cambridge Uni. People have actually told me on this forum that he probably isn't really religious, how could he be? Knowing all that he knows. He can't be a scientist and believe in God! He must be stupid... with his silly PhD.

You're oversimplifying to put words in people's mouthes again Livia. Belief in god (which is what I would call faith?) and observing and following an organised human religion are not the same thing. The former is not inherently irrational but the latter is.

As I said before, I'll continue to correct you every time you (deliberately...) misrepresent this stance.

I always look forward to you poppin on to tell me where I'm going wrong, TS. Thing is, I'm not much interested in your stance. You're FAR more interested in mine.

100% agree here, personally I would say that those who identify as having a belief system without subscribing to a religion are at a serious disadvantage, as they can't piously attend whichever branch of whatever religion on prescribed days, whilst the rest of the time turn a blind eye to issues that could at best be described as inhumanity.

For me that is illogical.

Late stage? I was the 4th person to comment in the thread. You had your input into truths grievance and the whole religion/faith issue... now I'm having mine.
I'm not attempting to be anyones spokesperson.

No, of course not. It took you quite a long time to reply though... you started to reply, logged out, returned and posted. Thanks for taking the trouble.

Blasphemy

I find God has quite a good sense of humour. I don't think it'd worry him, considering the rest of the sh1t that's going on in the world.
