    Rape Victims and Promiscuity

    So imagine a person who God knows commited sins they would not have commited if they had not been the victims of some terrible crime beforehand. Would God conclude they had lost moral agency (In which case I'd argue free will can not be abolute), or would God conclude they were morally guilty...

    Non-existance can not exist in time.

    Rape Victims and Promiscuity

    I'm not a follower of any of the Abrahamic religions, so I believe neither in hell nor in sexual promiscuity being inherently wrong. But no, that's not the point I'm trying to make. Read on. What I'm gunning for is the point that either God will apply different moral rules to people who have...

    Rape Victims and Promiscuity

    I believe atotalstranger was being ironic, probably because he's too often heard news reports about fathers killing their daughters for "bringing shame on the family" by being raped. (I'm also aware it wasn't until Jesus meek and mild that we got the concept of eternal damnation in Abrahamic...

    Rape Victims and Promiscuity

    Of course it's a very complex and personal process, and I'm not in the least trying to trivialize the crime or dismiss the recovery process. Many rape victims feel like their whole world has shattered, some are driven so far into deppression that they commit suicide months or even years after...

    Neurotheology - pseudoscience?

    I have to agree with Storm. It's a sub-category of Neurophysiology, and if anything it'll most likely end up just ticking off fundamentalists by explaining the biology underlying their convictions.

    Rape Victims and Promiscuity

    Here's one aimed at followers of the Abrahamic religions (Especially those who see premarital sex as a sin). Basically, rape can be extremely psychologically damaging, and I'm sure nobody disagrees with that. In trying to deal with the trauma forced on them, rape victims often change their...

    Same Sex Marriage

    So... oral sex, anal sex between man and woman and sex during menstruation are as bad as homosexuality, "moral-biologically" speaking?

    Life Affirmation

    This goes out mainly to other atheists and agnostics, but anyone is welcome to share their religious viewpoint, as well. Being an atheist, I am perfectly happy to state that I see no inherent meaning to existance. But the human brain being what it is, I kept looking for something like meaning...

    Eternity is Hell.

    Actually, in the physical universe there's proton decay to worry about. :D (The energy survives, but still...) And Eternal Recurrence beats any heaven I can imagine. (Amnesia's built right into it.)

    Eternity is Hell.

    That god's an *******. Ah. Filters. Very well, then that god's a bad infinite being.

    Eternity is Hell.

    Yes. In time, you can get used to anything. The real hell will begin when you get bored getting tortured all the time. Granted, I'd rather sing and play harp than be choked with my own intestines and set on fire for the forseeable future, but with infinity in the equation, there is very little...

    Crime prevention via embryo destruction

    (Let's not turn this into a debate about abortion in general, but...) In response to idea: Legalized abortion and crime effect - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia Not overly informative, but it makes the common sense point that if you reduce the number of unwanted children, you get fewer...
