Religion Is Illogical

Hello Citizens of the World,
    As we all know, there are so many contradictions in the Bible, yet Christians take it to be literal fact, even when presented with evidence, the minds of the most devoted still cling to their beliefs, so I've decided to add my two cents to the debate, and join the growing group of people who have called out religion for its many errors in history, ethics, and why it is illogical. The primary error in religion is that it's built on so many assumptions, it's continued existence may be the only true miracle in this world. Now to move on to scientific evidence disproving the existence of a god. First, the fossil record, if humans and dinosaurs lived at the same time, you'd expect to find some human fossils, yet none have been found. The next piece of evidence is the Grand Canyon, first, if Noah's flood actually occurred, you'd expect a Grand Canyon on every continent, except oh, wait, there isn't. The next piece of evidence pertaining to the Grand Canyon is that if said flood actually occurred, you'd expect fossils of different ages, such as 4,000 years ago, and fossils of modern-day animals to be intermixed as if some of each had tried to swim to safety. Another piece of evidence is meteorological, after all, it is highly improbable that it would rain in a continuous downpour for 40 days and nights. There is also proof of evolution, as we have found transitionary forms, even though those stupid creationists want one mid-transition, or think there's a missing link in the chain, there are also genetic similarities. Continuing on, evidence disproving god is found in the Bible itself, for example, the Bible states, and I quote, "They shall take up serpents;and if they drink any deadly thing it shall not hurt them" So what the Bible is saying is that a believer could drink 5 grams of Sodium Cyanide and remain unharmed. The very proposition has me laughing uncontrollably. It also says only two of each species we on the Ark, which was supposedly constructed out of wood by eight unskilled workers in a region of the world where wood is scarce, continuing on, it appears, according to a chart proposed by science, called similar to the religious model by Ken Ham, which completely ignored Golden Jackals, did they have chariots fitted with iron like the plains people from Judges Chapter 1, who couldn't be defeated in battle for the same reason??? That also implied that modern genetic diversity seen today took only 2000 years, not the 400,000 science has shown it would take. The Bible is also off on the number of species genetically bottlenecked, the Bible says 2 dogs, science says 2000-25000 dogs. To conclude, if you still ignore the evidence shown above, and I didn't cover every scrap of it, you must be an ignorant religious type, as most religious types with any "common" (and by common I mean uncommon) sense, would have joined those who do not believe in any god. Even though I ignored all the other thousands of gods purported to exist in separate religions, if one religion has flaws, they all do.

5 Questions Atheists Cannot Answer (Answered)

Hello All,    Sorry I haven't posted in a while, between running and schoolwork I've been busier than normal, so here's a new post. So, SJ Thompson, a religious apologist, specifically Christian, has posted 5 questions for atheists, this post is from May of last year, but I just found it today perusing the black hole of doom, gloom, and depression that is the internet.  So her first question is, " So, why do even individualists know that we ought to help the weak, feed the poor, and be honest, humble, just, cooperative, empathetic, forgiving and loving? Why is it that all societies, regardless of their practices, know what we   ought   to do? Where did we get this moral compass?" My answer is a quote from the Greater Good Magazine run by UC Berkley, " We are so used to empathy that we take it for granted, yet it is essential to human society as we know it. Our morality depends on it: How could anyone be expected to follow the golden rule without the ...

President Trump Shouldn't be In the White House

Hello All,  Would you agree that President Trump is a misogynistic, scientifically illiterate moron who should be nowhere near our nuclear weapons or the White House? He denies climate change despite the overwhelming evidence, and if you look at what the Republican Party is, it's a shell of what it once was under Lincoln. Republicans think that all the other countries are out to get us. Instead,we should just make friends and find our niche in a global economy. Trump has canceled research verifying greenhouse gas cuts. If America wants to remain a superpower without throwing its weight around to get what it wants, then it needs to move away from fossil fuels, every job in the fossil fuel industry could be outsourced to another industry, workers who maintain oil and natural gas pipelines can go into the plumbing industry, or on maintaining the coolant systems on nuclear reactors. Chemists could work on developing bioplastics, managers can be outsourced to a...

Why Impeaching Trump Is a Bad Idea

Hello All,    I'm here to write why I think it would be ill-advised to impeach Trump in the present state of the government, (as of October 25, 2018). The first, and largest problem being that if Trump is impeached, which is unlikely, even after the midterms, as this assumes a Democrat win in the House and Senate, the latter of which will be a harder race for Democrats, is Mike Pence, as a bible-thumper, arch-conservative, it's almost better to wait it out until 2020, because even Republicans are starting to dislike Trump's brand of conservatism, and Pence is further right than Trump on Gay Marriage, Abortion ( on which Trump has no consistent position I can find) and on women's rights, because of Presidential Line of Succession, Pence would take office and become the 46th POTUS, resulting in a far more conservative America that might cause a mass exodus to countries like Canada, The U.K, and the Netherlands. The Second issue is that as there may be a new Speaker of th...
