@edgarblythe,
Quote:It is a belief, but only in the sense we believe people who try to push gods and religion on us are full of ****.
But the dignified persons at a posh ceremony are full of **** as well. Their peristaltic colons, upper and lower, are a tube of **** building pressure until the urge to exercise the rectal sphincter becomes pressing.
We are habituated to forgetting such obvious scientific facts for cultural reasons. People may well push gods and religion for cultural reasons too.
What are the cultural implications of forgetting about gods and religion as we forget about our insides and the operations thereof?
Perhaps, ed, it is your duty to explain the cultural outcome of us all accepting the position you take and promote and forgetting all about gods and religion in the same way that we forget about the epidermal bag of **** we all are once cultural considerations are set aside.
Like all the others who pursue your infantile line you focus entirely on the faults you perceive in others and thus you are distracted, probably deliberately, from your own faults and the faults of the alternative to gods and religion which, of necessity, loom large when gods and religion are set aside.
Which is to say you are giving yourself a free ride pretending that the desuetude of gods and religion will have no effects. And an effect-less cause is no cause at all. Your argument has no point.
