Top Ten Reasons to Not Be Religious
We have actually the knowledge to create life or even cloning ( using cells to create life ). If that science has so many critics it's because religious institutions think that we are messing with god's creation. And I'm talking about one thing here. Theories about how life started ( there are many plausible theories, not only the big bang ) are also getting critics by religion. In other words ; Religion is certainly holding back or at least slowing down progressions made by science and therefore the teaching or education about those progressions.
Actually, Christianity started in Rome, while the Dark Ages occurred a few hundred years prior, for completely different reasons. I'm an atheist, but I'm a nerd in general and just wanted to do some editing. Hope that clears things up.
No science, no peace, no critical thinking. And some people want to bring the dark ages back!
Let's not let history repeat itself.
Neither Mao, nor Stalin, nor Hitler were atheists. Mao started a religion called Maoism; Hitler died a Catholic; and Stalin studied at an Orthodox seminary, and is a Saint in Russian and Georgian Orthodox Churches (quite the feat for an atheist, don't you think?).
However, even if, for the sake of the argument, all 3 were atheists, did they commit their atrocities in the name of atheism, or did they commit their atrocities in the name of Nazism or Communism? And we all know that Islam is same as Nazism (Hitler argues for this in Mein Kampf), and Christianity is the same as Communism (Thomas More's "Utopia" was a blueprint for a Communist society - and that guy is a Catholic Saint of politicians, despite burning alive people for daring to own the Bible in English).
With all the religions in the world, there can only be one right one if they are all very intricate. The most likely religion to be true is atheism, which isn't a religion at all.
Religion is faith! Look, I respect your beliefs and everything, but this list is taking religion too far.
Nobody has proof. We mustn't argue simply.
You do not HAVE to pray, it's a choice you make. I'm a Christian, pentecostal, I don't pray everyday, I don't read my bible everyday. Sure, we have to go to church a few times a week, but what's so big about that?
Maybe you don't have to pray in some religions ( buddhism, taoism ) and some where it's a choise ( Christianity ) but in the Islam you have to pray 5 times a day. And it seems that this is also the most ridiculous of all religions.
My friend MADE me pray and I hated it and she was all like "you're doing it wrong. If you don't pray to god satan will get you. Satan is trying to get to you"
What ever happened to "thou shalt not kill"?
Faith without evidence of proof is blind faith and a very stupid way of life. How could you living reasonless with faith?
I have faith that science is true and that religion is not.
We don't need proof, all we need is faith.
And they say that god give them free will and whenever they do something wrong with their free will they say that god will forgive ( fancy ethic to clear their conscience ). Religion is the most hypocrit way of living!
Not saying ALL are. Just some people that I know in real life. Like my teacher is a Hindu and some of the students in the class who were Christians were against that and started complaining.
The Islam will tell you that it is a religion of love and understanding but behind your back they despize you. It's the most hypocrit religion in the world.
This is true no religion can prove if their god they believe in is true but nobody can prove that their god is fake even science can't prove it.
My parents (especially my mom) is religious and I'm not. I asked a question about it once and my mom thinks that I'm insulting her religion. SERIOUSLY? >:(
