Thread Name: BS: Why should anyone believe in 'God'?
Subject: RE: BS: Why should anyone believe in 'God'?
No, no, and no. I do not have disdain for people based on what they believe. I have an opposition to people *not* thinking. Please actually read my posts; you are putting ideas out there as mine, and they aren't.
It isn't bigotry till I have disdain BEFORE finding out whether people are thinking or not. As I have repeatedly said but obviously must repeat, I have no argument with faith. My argument is with the mistaken idea that faith is the same thing as rational belief. My argument is with people who refuse to accept reality when it conflicts with their dogma, rather than adjusting their views to include what is demonstrably reality. And I have a serious objection to the theocratic insertion of mythology into the teachings, outside of philosophy classes, as if it were fact, in public schools in this country.
Please take one -any one- of my *actual* postings and demonstrate how it shows contempt for people based on what they believe. If you can't, then who is it who's using insults instead of actually arguing their case? Not I, said the little fat pig.
