That's insane. There would always be conflict, even without religion. Of course 9/11 may not have happened, but other things would have.



I never said there wouldn't ever be conflict. There's conflict in everyday life. I'm just stating the fact that the world would be better of without it.

It has once been said that the gauge of a country's civilization is the manner by which it cares for its prisoners and disabled. There is perhaps no wiser analogy to demonstrate my point of view on our species' current status. More and more I find it hard to believe that anyone actually cares for anyone else. Our history as a civilization is a sad chronicle of overindulgence and self-appointed authority, and I imagine it will continue to be for quite some time. Truthfully, the only thing keeping my faith in humanity is an optimistic vision of a promising future, and all the amazing people working towards that future.

EDIT:  This is in response to the OP. Seems like the thread has gone deeper into other topics by this point. :P

If this thread is a judge its obvious it will be a multifactional idealogical civil war at some point. To OPs first title question *leaves again*

I'll see you on the battlefield as I loot your corpses and fight for the highest bidder >>

So how far are we from the standard "How many people has Religion/Atheism killed in history?" thing? Come on, we all know that's where all these threads end.

Agreed, except I don't share your optimism :)

And if an atheistic ideology like Communism was never conceived, over 100 million people would have lived in the last century.


Communism isn't an athiestic ideology, lol.

Ehm, yes it is. That is an undisputable fact. Read the writings of Marx.

Whether or not Communism is atheist, Communism and Atheism have gone hand in hand far more often than not. Hell, the only Commie that I know of that did not try to destroy religion outright was Castro.  No god but the State!

Haha, that's okay. I like to keep a positive thought, even if reality is in disagreement.

It is impossible to look at histroy without saying "WTF?" on several occasions.

Also, that may make for an amusing avatar image. :lol: Woo might take offense though.

If the fundamental premise of communism is that everyone is equal that makes it an atheist ideology, since when you factor different religions into the mix then everyone is obviously NOT equal.

The liberals have brainwashed themselves into believing equality does not mean being the same.

Prove me wrong. You haven't responded to my arguments at all besides saying that they're wrong without backing it up.

Western society is based largely on Judeo-Christian values, whether you accept it or not. Our laws come from the Bible, ie the Ten Commandments. This is what the Communist filth on the left are trying to destroy in order to tear down society completely and replace it with an idealized socialist structure that never works, never has and never will. That's one reason why they promote such perversions like homosexual marriage, to destroy the traditional family and further erode the pillars of our world.


Our laws come from Greek, Roman, Norse institutions and merry old England...not from the bible.


What Slimgrin said.

There is a reason why the early middle-age is called The Dark Age. The Dark Age is the age where all the Greek, Roman and Norse values where thrown away and Europe was ruled by the Christian church. The Dark Age is the most depressing and grim time in the history of Europe. Everything the Romans and Greek created, was destroyed by the church and there was nothing left but indoctrination and suffering. The Dark Age was the time when witch burning was something that happened every day and it was promoted by the chuch. It really was a dark moment in history indeed.
