if there were no need for 'engineers from the quantum plenum' then we should not have any unanswered scientific questions.

Actually, it's good to have them around.  They remind the moderate theists what they might become if they buy too deeply into the nonsense.  Plus, they're great ammunition in online debates.  :)

That's a good way of looking at them, I don't think it will stop them due to the dogma issue pointed out by Martin, however it would marginalise their impact.

Wouldn't it be amazing if one could wield a literal ban hammer?  Authority and Fun all wrapped into one beating instrument!

Quote from: "Keithzworld"If certain Christian groups promote their bigotry towards the gay community with slogans like "God Hates Fa*gs". Isn't it reasonable to twist that around and give them a taste of their own medicine?




I know you can't hate whats not there, its more about the underlining message than anything else.

Thoughts?

I can only imagine what I would be like if I was gay, given my already boiling contempt for religion.

Fact is, religions are scams to separate fools from their money. Fags are not as good for business as breeders because they don't create as many donors when the collection plate gets passed around. Ditto for the church's attitude towards condoms. Doesn't matter how much misery these doctrines create. It's all about the cash.
