[QUOTE]Originally posted by Omega: [QB] Just looking back through the thread and saw this. [i]Religion was an important part of pulling the human race out of barbarism - but it can be compared to using a ladder to climb out of a pit. After you've climbed it - using the ladder only brings you down into the pit again. - Schmidt's Maxim on Religion[/i] Only those who look upwards can see that we're not out of the pit. Rob: [i]I don't know, why would you burn women at the stake for practicing witchraft?[/i] Christians don't. People CLAIMING to be Christians have, but I can hardly be held responsible for the actions of my dopplegangers, can I? Lee: [i]So. . . any charity is therefore bad?[/i] No, just ones you're forced into. [i]And what's this stealing? It's called "taxation."[/i] Taxation for unauthorized purposes. They're taking our money for things that we never said for which they could do so. Thus, stealing. [i]And I don't like the sound of this "deserving" clause you've worked in[/i] Too bad. [i]after all, you're not the most tolerant of people, Omeychops.[/i] You have a screwy definition of "tolerant". Have I tried to burn you at the stake because you disagree with me? No? Then I'm tolerant. Treknophyle: [i]Why can't (insert religious affiliation here) followers simply follow their faith - NOT tell us about it, and live in the serene hope of their eternal reward?[/i] Because then we WOULDN'T be following our faith.
