Subject: RE: BS: Death penalty for homosexuality?
ToeRag does make one interesting point.

God does exist.

As a concept.

Descartes said "I think, therefore I am." So in that sense god does exist.

God exists as ever, as an instrument for helping the few domineer the many. T'was ever thus. I reckon that if you got rid of religion, you would have to invent it anyway. Look at the countries where religion was banned. It was banned so it didn't compete with the state system to gain the same end. ie., fodder for the masses.

ToeRag isn't quite so accurate with the idea of no god, no missionaries. We would have missionaries, but their role would be pushing state propaganda.

About time these idiots from the bible belt (aka Dumbfuckistan) realised that the vast majority of people may not be able to say whether there is a god or not, but at least most people know the so called moral code extracted from scripture is flawed, irrelevant and in places downright disgusting. (ie the cause of debate in this thread.)
