I think RE in school is generally a waste of time. Nobody takes notice. Give hem two hours of geography, that actually teaches you something.

"Do you believe that Muhammed rode a flying horse?"
I won't even bother with that tbh. You clowns are quick to take the moral highground as well.
Come off it.
"I hope dubbed never breeds."
You've been piping up in the background. Why don't you at least join in the debate?

Muhammad is hercules. Pegasus is the horse.
As I said, hypocrites really. Not surprised at all.

Fine dubbed, yu said homosexuality is unnatural, yet several thousand speices in nature have homosexual tendancies. Fact.
Before Christianity, humans were treated like trash especially if you are poor or disabled and it was accepted in those societies.
But Christ changed everything. He taught that all men were equal before God and should be treated as such. This was the philosophy that drove the abolisionists like Wilberforce to end the slave trade.
Also, if you were not a wealthy land owner, you could not vote but all that changed when Christians fought for us that all men are equal. This became the bedrock of western democracy.

How anyone can take the bible as the word of God is beyond me, a book written by men, then edited by the men in power to suit their agenda, then re re edited by the next person / people in power and this trend continues for centuries.
-------------------------
I feel that is an extremely silly thing to say when religion is about faith. But if you prefer to state facts do so from an informed point of view by educating yourself on the subject which you clearly haven't given your cliche

So explain the ever growing number of Christians who literally take the Bible as the word of God? Explain the belief in Creationism, that Adam and Eve shared the Garden of Eden with Dinosaurs 6000 years ago.
Explain why some groups hate Gay people due to 1 line written in the Bible and insist they are right as this is the word of God?
Explain how God wrote this book through his followers yet it has been dramatically edited over centuries, explain why the people in power at the time chose to remove certain books the Bible.
Explain, Explain Explain, don't say I don't understand when I've have written examples even giving the name of a church in my example.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
I can never understand how some people can take books written thoundsands of years ago seriously. Surely they must be outdated somehow? Many things written in those books can be considered immoral by today's moral standards.

Are you serious? The same thing has happened under Christianity.

Religious groups have done a many good things for people thought out history, but also many bad things. I certainly wouldn't say Christianity promoted equality..

My point is not to throw mud at someones belief just because you do not understand. Take time to study it or accept your ignorance for what it is. The lack of tolerance is what starts war in countries.
Religion is a load of made up rubbish IMO, but if you want to believe it, that's your choice. Just don't use it as a weapon or as a reason to dislike another.
I mean really, you die, and this 'spirit' lives in in heaven or he'll for eternity? Christ. I've been I councils enough times to you there is nothing, absolutely nothing.
There's my two pence.
Not read any of the enormous response to this and it's a football forum too !
Anyhow you say you hate all aspects of religion op and then go on to say you believe in god 50/50. Are you just trying to hedge your bets.
There is no god, it's the biggest fairytale ever. It shouldn't fall on atheists to prove there is not one. One single scrap of scientific evidence or otherwise is there to suggest some superbeing,ie. a god created a universe with billions and billions of planets, black holes and billions of years old. Billions of species have existed in a very short time on this planet...not thanks to a god.
I despise religion with it's divisiveness, hatred, control, doctrinism,self-righteousness etc etc
God/religion/faith
Religion is the biggest cause of trouble around the globe.....all because of someones made up supreme being.

That doesn't sound like a religion, that sounds like a political group.
My favorite is that unless your child is baptised it will not get into heaven. If god is such a tolerant "thing" why cant dead babies get into heaven?

"What the hell has my comment got to do with taking any kind of high ground? I asked a simple question."
You're an idiot.
You still haven't answered my earlier question about innocent people which would further ascertain what a handicap you are.

In this kind of debate all sides shows high level of ignorance, that's why it's usually a big waste of time.
If you're not religious you'd never see things from the side of a religious person, vice versa.
I'm a Christian myself and see big flaws in these arguments..
