His view that "Big Pharma" is an opportunistic parasite is one that's hard to argue with, but he supports alternative medicines like homeopathy, is anti-vaccination, and in one video is neutral on subjects like laetrile. But if you're neutral or pro-laetrile you haven't paid attention to decades...

And what makes your Christianity, which borrows heavily from other religions, more correct than Greek, Norse, and Chinese mythology which have much more extensive writings and considerably less contradictions? Oh, and don't forget that Australian aboriginal lore can be traced back over 30,000...

I've had two experiences I can think of off hand which other people I have known have attributed to the supernatural. Both involved apparitions appearing, one when I was 10 and another when I was 24. The one at 24 was a symptom of food poisoning, a pizza possibly laced with something as my...

Wow, this is absolutely sickening. The idea that sucking up to fairy tales at the expense of other people's lives is insane. Article copied from Pharyngula. So much for taking morality from the bible.

Cool app showing size and scale of many tiny things. Unfortunately they do not show the relative sizes of angels and heads of pins. http://learn.genetics.utah.edu/content/begin/cells/scale/

Those were all examples of established beliefs at one time or another. If you find any one of them to be unbelievable or ridiculous, feel free to evaluate the value of faith.

The poll didn't have enough responses, so "I like pie." was my answer. It wasn't supposed to derail the thread.

Sickness is not caused by demons. The moon is not eaten by wolves that chase it across the sky. The world does not ride on the back of a giant turtle. Noah did not cram all the animals of the world into an ark and save them from a global flood. The elephant did not get a long trunk from...

Wow, what a fantastic and educated response, "Buddy". Enlighten us on your "creditable" religions. By the way, you state in your first post that you believe the Christian god created natural drugs. Well if you follow the Christian god then you shouldn't believe in any other "creditable"...

Might want to actually read up on that. Life didn't come from "nothing". Life comes from the stable arrangement of molecules in increasingly complex configurations. In the beginning there were base molecules. And it was good. Some molecules gained or lost electrons, changing state. Some of...

I saw a 6 foot tall lizard man in my room once. Can I claim that as a miracle? It was just a hallucination from food poisoning but since I have no proof and nobody can verify it, it should fit within the miracle criteria. The standing question: If miracles are real why aren't faith healers or...

Religion and mythology ARE a substitute for knowledge. They were stories made up to explain the unknown. There are certainly better gods in mythology than "Jah". Practice whatever you want. Put it out in public and expect to be challenged. If I say the Mariners are the best team ever, anyone...

You don't need to feel sorry for me. I prefer to live in a world where answers are found in tangibles, and not in substitutes for knowledge. Gods and mythologies are lazy explanations for the unknown. I just happen to find greater value in learning about something than settling for the...

No. But show proof of a god, and then proof of a god's involvement and I'd reconsider. Cannabis is thought to have evolved in Kazakhstan, developing THC as part of the defenses that plants have often developed.

"Our continuing mission... To exploit whole new worlds. To indoctrinate new beings and new civilizations. To boldly impose our will into the sex lives of beings everywhere." Just wait until Father O'Reilly molests little Globnort of Huffax and their whole space fleet descends on Earth with...

Bye bye. Don't let reality hit you on the way out.

You believe in a magic invisible being who only exists in an old book of mythology. And you call us fools. You're gonna have a breakdown when you find out Santa, the Easter Bunny, and Spongebob are fictional as well.

My grandfather spoke to him all the time. "Jesus Christ, that hurt!" when hammering his thumb. "Jesus Christ, turn down that noise!" when hearing loud music or TV. "Jesus Christ, I'm trying to sleep." Apparently Jesus is an inconsiderate bastard who made my grandfather's life very unpleasant.

When properly done, science reaches conclusions based on evidence and experimentation, and eventually discards or revises that which is rendered obsolete by increased knowledge and technology. Creationists attempt to shoehorn biology into the book of Genesis, and refused to acknowledge any...

Prove it. And don't use your bullshit "The proof is inside you." Provide real tangible proof of the existence of your god. If you start babbling metaphysical garbage you will only prove that you don't have a leg to stand on.
