Don't worry, religion isn't dead. It has just morphed into wacko spirituality with fat Buddhas replacing crucifixes in homes. Also, Islam is on its way to the West. There are no atheists in Muslim countries.

No atheists,
No gays,
No adulterers,
No pedophiles.

Gotta laugh when theists say the word "fornication"
It's just so weird and backwards to try and put negative connotations onto sex.

I think it rather means that you cannot differ between men and women sometimes, atleast sometimes I can't.
But then again, you do have a lot of transsexuals nowadays, is that more scientific?

There are no more gays, lesbians, bisexuals or transsexuals that there were in the past. The thing is now that in civilised countries religious bigots (and that is not all religious people) can't harass/imprison/murder them on a whim based on their mythological superstitions.

Yeah I always thought it was funny when I was growing up that the preachers and adults tried to convince us that sex was a dirty, filthy, horribly sinful thing, and then told us only to do it with the person we cared about enough to marry.  What a lovely way to treat ones spouse by doing such horrible, filthy, dirty things to her/him?

I think it's logical that pop culture folklore gone haywire would start to fizzle. Hopefully we the future holds headlines like "Memory of the Jersey Shore television show almost completely extinct in 12 countries". It has just taken religion longer because of that whole...origin of life and eternal soul business.  :P

But in seriousness, I feel pretty good about this, and hope to see it continue. It seems that the relatively recent influx of media attention on fundamentalism (terrorism and whatnot) has lost religions some members.

I know that well Tank, what I meant is that it's now possible for a woman to physical become a man or vice versa.
Civilised countries today invade other countries for the sake of oil and because weapons need to be fired, otherwise their 'civilised' economy will not run.
So instead of running on oil, it's a combination of oil and blood.

Get rid of the illusion that some parts of the world are 'civilised'.
The reason that you can drink, is because in some part of the world someone's blood is running.

This is an example of the intolerance of Christianity. It's followers show no respect towards other religions. From my atheist perspective Christianity and Bhuddism but seem strange (or wacko) as you term it. I simply choose to show a little more respect onto the religions by not externalising and vocalising that they are wacko, even internalised I would simply say "illogical, contradictory, unessessary, unproven, unfounded concepts". Although it does seem to me that Bhuddism is a much more peacefull and tolerant religion than Christianity.

I have considered putting a Bhudda onto my wall. They really do look quite beautiful and peacefull. A dead man nail to a cross is not really my taste of art decor, the gore and bloodlust of Christianity often amazes me.

Isn't that a prerequisite for a successful religion (successful in its survival), one that spreads aggressively? In evolutionary terms, can a mild and tolerant religion survive in the long run?

AreEl, you probably think that I am only born to kill (I am a crazy muslim terrorist).

I don't see much difference between fat bhudda's or crucifixes. Both are a form of idol worship.
You place an idol in your house, and you kneel for the idol.

This why muslims are not allowed to draw the prophet, because it might lead to idol worship.
And this is pretty common among world religions.

When God sent Bhudda as a messenger, Bhudda is worshipped now.
When God sent people like Krishna or Ram, they are worshiped now in Hinduism. (The Hindu scriptures condemn idolworship, they say there is One God)
When God sent Jesus as a messenger, Jesus is now worshipped on a cross.

Instead of listening to the messenger, people tend to bow down to the messenger instead of the message.


Even we muslims tend to do this. --> http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=SqQ9Wc7XvoY
