I'm not religious but I think someone is looking after me
I do know that life and people in this country was much better when people went to church and feared god A person who lives on god's will is a much better person than those whos lives run on their own will If you look at the people's faces on songs of praise they all look well and seem at peace with there selves |

Radio 4 did another episode of Born In Bradford today I, listened to it while driving round the dump as it happens. It illustrated the damage religion is doing to the children in the city, depressing listening.

Cast iron symptom of Mental Illness .
Only my opinion but looking at all the evidence I'm of the same opinion as @portmanpark |

It allows you to lean on something else. It allows you to blame something else ie It is ....' will, we hear a lot these days.
But as I know the mice built the earth as an experiment to find out what the question was (they already had the answer) I have a very different view of the universe compared to many. I must beam up and ask them if liverpool are going to win bye for now!! |

I don't think it's mental illness or stupidity. I'd say mostly, maybe 90% for believers which is a pure guess, it's down to cultural upbringing and subsequent lifestyle.

Give me some guesses of what you think then.

The 90% was a guess not the rest of the sentence.

I'd agree, Charlie. Apparently Muslim kids do 2 hours after school at a Madrasah learning the book, that's ten hours a week or 500 a year, no wonder they have never broken free after 60 years here.

Another good comic is the Guardian. If you read it you will know what the bbc's line will be that day. |

It is based on 'Nothing' . Nothing in the way of any tangible evidence of any 'God' .

If you're going to slag me off for guessing then I'd at least expect you to have evidence of what you're talking about.

Some evidence?

I'm not suggesting that religion doesn't serve a purpose .
Much religious scripture is an excellent blueprint on how to live a virtuous and fruitful life . This is quite useful for those among us who struggle to grasp the difference between right and wrong . Unfortunately the are many examples of 'believers' who still carry out evil acts , many in the name of their religion .

I don't really think that was meant as a compliment. So where's your evidence of "Cast iron symptom of Mental Illness ."? |
|
By:
So that qualifies as a 'slagging off' does it ?
A simple difference of opinion ? WOW ! Someone's touchy ![]() |
|
By:
You're trying to worm your way out of what you said. You deliberately quoted 'normal' with a clear implication and then italicised some. Why bother?

do wah…….you have described nature and come to the conclusion ..I cant think of anything else so it must be god

Some evidence? Hearing voices in one's head . Seeing apparitions . Are these examples of experiences of someone deemed ' normal' ? ![]() ![]() |

By:
And still no evidence of what you said.

See above ..................

I'm still awaiting your evidence of "Cast iron symptom of Mental Illness" . Or you just trying to pretend you never said that.

See my post @ 6.04

6:04 you said see above. That's really good evidence.

OP needs a history lesson.
I guess he/she/other thinks Saunders, Fry, Nightingdale, Wilberforce, Shaftesbury, the Booths etc etc +100m were fruitcakes. Re Shaftesbury - what does the Eros status on Picc Circus mean to you? |

By:
I offered an opinion and you went on the defensive . Now you are just being pedantic (or maybe plain stupid) .
I made two posts @ 6.04 and you opt to quote the one which you find less difficult to counter . ![]() ![]() ![]() |

Ok
I didn't go on the defensive, far from it as you can see. Do you really believe that all religious people do this: Hearing voices in one's head . Seeing apparitions . |
