[QUOTE="Marcel, post: 407727, member: 61326"] I grew up as Orthodox, but went through times where I didn't believe such things as a "God". You for one, cannot come up with arguments against religion and not expect to be hit with a comeback or vise versa. As I normally say, God set the universe as a time watch and put it in start mode. Religion is religion, atheism is atheism. No one can change that, and it can't be changed. It's neither "bad" or "good". Religion is what shapes people, by that I mean morals are given. These morals obviously depict your personality and your behaviour, so you can be shaped in a good way by religion, also by a bad way... for example, where in the bible where it says Somehow the bible contradicts itself too, Thou Shall not Murder. The aim for a Christian is to put themselves in Christ's position, and to take it from there, what would He do. How about the fact that Christianity teaches not to rape? We still have people within our religion who commit this act of crime. Although, same goes for atheists. And if you personally think we'd be ahead and more advanced with technology, not at all matey. All scientists who have made us reach this point were devoted Christians (catholics) who practiced their faith whilst reasoning the world. E.g, my nigga who died a virgin, Isacc Newton. He continuously quotes God, even though the Church was going against him. Anyway I think I've lost track and went off topic. Religion is good and bad. Atheism is good and bad. [/QUOTE]
