		The ancestor of religion is revelation
		Religion is an insult to human dignity. With or without it, you'd have good people doing good things and evil people doing evil things. But for good people to do evil things, that takes religion

WITHOUT A DOUBT - IGNORANCE is the main reason religion even exists . The conivers that thought up this scheme only benefited themselves at the expense of an otherwise ignorant populace . And, the religious leaders today ( especially the catholic pope ) continue to carry on this charade !

Sorry for my answer, but don't you ever feel the pressure of being the party popper? I still think religion is part of evolution of man, and some people have some catching up to do. And I ain't claimin nothin.

People will use religion and science to their advantage (more like disadvantage). It makes some people better, others not so much. "Empowering", is the word I think that best describes it.

Fully agreed. one side was curious enough to investigate. The other side got high and shared the tale of their respective trips with anyone who would listen.

Bonus points for those who can figure out which side is which.

Ignorance is the common ancestor to any knowledge and in between them stands learning. The accumulation of knowledge is how our societies have grown and advanced. Learning never ceases for intelligent people because they realize how much they don't know.

Hey were not perfect.
Not all muslims read there Quran
And Romney has probably never read all of the book of Mormon.

Questions like these are created to make only us to look bad. But eh what can I say? A lot of us pretend that we know everything, when only very few of us do.
