"Our Constitution was made only for a moral and religious people. It is wholly inadequate to the government of any other." -- John Adams, October 11, 1798
"It cannot be emphasized too strongly or too often that this great nation was founded, not by religionists, but by Christians; not on religions, but on the gospel of Jesus Christ. For this very reason peoples of other faiths have been afforded asylum, prosperity, and freedom of worship here." <sub>
--The Trumpet Voice of Freedom: Patrick Henry of Virginia, p. iii.</sub>Comment -

Life isn't all about intelligence. Gamblers are some of the most close-minded and naive people in this world. I even put myself in this category at times. There is so much out there we do not know.Cause Sleep is the Cousin of DeathComment -

#43I'm sure you can find a token handful of intelligent theists, but that doesn't really change the fact that stupid people = religious and smart people = atheistsComment -

90% of those who call themselves "atheist" are opinionated freaks who are looking for a some intellectual fight around every corner
figured out there's no god, great. now get over yourself
most atheists are also politically correct leftists who hate Christianity to the core yet appease IslamComment -

#46Be a non practicing Christian like most Americans. That way you can whore around, gamble and cuss and then pray to God that the Iowa Hawkeyes win.
(And by Iowa Hawkeyes I mean the greatest team on God's green earth.)Comment -

It's kind of like the religious are level one poker players, they just play their cards.
Atheists are level two, they think about what cards the other person may have.
Then there are agnostics at level three, who think about what other people might think they are holding.
They probably have observed some religious people around them, are knowledgeable about science and history, and have determined it can't be the answer. Then during a subsequent athiestic phase, they observed the scientific theories and rigid athiestic mindset don't mesh with the unbelievable complexity and beauty in the world. SO then they accept their own limitations and decide there is no way to know for sure, there is too much we can't possibly comprehend.
Then there are levels above this in which the subject determines what is best for him/her, deciding to have faith in religion or atheism. These people are intelligent, but often indiscernable from the level ones and twos since their beliefs in the end are so similar to level ones and twos, although maybe for different reasons and by a different path. Just be careful who you call stupid.Comment -

#53biomar, i think you shouldn't focus on the word religion, but on the word - faith, because a lot of "religious" people don't have faith in the principles of their religion, so even if you will call yourself - a Christian, a Muslim, a Juda - and your actions won't reflect your beliefs - you will become a hypocrite, won't you?
so you should choose what you believe in -
1. Jesus Christ, who has died for the sins of the humanity, and you go to heaven if you accept him as your Savior, and you follow him and his words in your life.
Or if you don't accept his sacrifice, you may believe that you will
2. receive salvation through Messiah who will come, but hasn't come yet(judaism- correct me if I am wrong)
3. believe that all that is HS or BS, and be an a classic example of many atheists from this forum, - by the way it's a belief too - because you nobody has found any proof of the world evolving from dust. It is believed by people that based on there speculations which have been false so many times
I do accept the first scenario and state that it's a true one, in fact it's not Judaism focusing on human-to-human relationships - it's God and Jesus christ focusing on human-to-human relationships in a correct way through the Bible particularly, (Jews use the old testament as a guideline)Comment -

#54Originally posted by Dark HorseIf with religion you mean belief system, your belief system is your religion. Again, it matters not what it is. You believe in it, you are loyal to it, would defend it, and yet have no proof of it, other than that, at one point or another, you chose to believe in it. Self-hypnosis. What if there were a snapping of fingers that broke the hypnosis?Comment -
