I don't quite get your point? Humans are stupid. But for humans to survive they will have to pull together. How can this be achieved? Tolerance and keeping politicians in check.

That is supposed to be what the Abrahamic religions were meant to be. The change from hunter gatherers to civilised humans although it didn't quite work out like that. Humans still have both a hunter gatherer and a civilised mentality.

The worst bloodbaths in history are all at the hands of atheist regimes. Based on your previous posts that should make you a happy guy too, because atheists usually picked on Christians to slaughter. And that's interesting. If most atheist posts are to be believed, Christian Faith means nothing, is powerless to reform anything. Yet atheist dictators pick on them constantly, as if, well, as if they might somehow support the oppressed.

Thousands of years. Thousands of years, and all the best wars, too. The bloodiest, most brutal wars fought, all based on religious hatred. Which is fine with me. Hey, any time a bunch of holy people want to kill each other I'm a happy guy.

whenever atheists run a government, watch out, genocide usually takes place. Just look at the history of atheist led regimes. It's not even a contest. atheist regimes are killers. Maybe it's because virtually all moral codes in the world have originated in religion.

But don't be giving me all this shit about the sanctity of life. I mean, even if there were such a thing, I don't think it's something you can blame on God. No, you know where the sanctity of life came from? We made it up. You know why? 'Cuz we're alive. Self-interest. Living people have a strong interest in promoting the idea that somehow life is sacred. You don't see Abbott and Costello running around, talking about this shit, do you? We're not hearing a whole lot from Musolini on the subject.

What's the latest from JFK? Not a goddamn thing. 'Cuz JFK, Musolini and Abbott and Costello are fucking dead. They're fucking dead. And dead people give less than a shit about the sanctity of life. Only living people care about it so the whole thing grows out of a completely biased point of view. It's a self serving, man-made bullshit story.

'My God has a bigger dick than your God!' Thousands of years. Thousands of years, and all the best wars, too. The bloodiest, most brutal wars fought, all based on religious hatred. Which is fine with me. Hey, any time a bunch of holy people want to kill each other I'm a happy guy.

But you know, the longer you listen to this abortion debate, the more you hear this phrase 'sanctity of life'. You've heard that. Sanctity of life. You believe in it? Personally, I think it's a bunch of shit. Well, I mean, life is sacred? Who said so? God? Hey, if you read history, you realise that God is one of the leading causes of death. Has been for thousands of years. Hindus, Muslims, Jews, Christians all taking turns killing each other 'cuz God told them it was a good idea.

Without a Constitution (laws) or some Bible, then there would be no rights, laws or morals, just people killing each other for any reason they wish. If the athiests were to write their book, what whould be written? Would everyone have to be an athiest? Would there be "good" and "evil". Tough questions maby, but it's something to think about.
