    Conversing with religious fundamentalists

    Resurrection stories were a dime a dozen in the ancient world. Christianity has all the hallmarks of being cobbled together from other religionsof the time. The gospels Were not even independently written.

    Conversing with religious fundamentalists

    Of course, all this could be just tribal propaganda.

    A New Dark Age For Europe

    Sounds unlikely to me. But it does sound typical of Muslims whining about outsiders when they run into difficulties.

    A New Dark Age For Europe

    I have recently encountered several interviews with Muslims in Europe. A common thread in the interviews was a desire to outbreed native Europeans and impose Muslim religion and culture. We have seen what muslim-majority countries look like. Should the rest of the civilized world prepare for...

    religiosity and/or strength of religious belief is associated with less intelligence

    He has publically admitted that, although he understood the validity of an old earth, he chose to reject it and promote creationist nonsense.

    religiosity and/or strength of religious belief is associated with less intelligence

    He bases his account on Noah's flood and his idiot "flood geology", both of which are fatuous nonsense. His guff about variable decay rates is nonsense. Ancient decay rates have been checked in various ways and have been found to be consistent with the present. It enrages me to see my...

    religiosity and/or strength of religious belief is associated with less intelligence

    That video will not load for me. I suggest you google Radiometric Dating a Christian Perspective by Roger Wien's. As a professional radiochemist I assure you that that is a solid account. Wise is a creationist who has admitted publically that he privileges scripture over reality. I found that...

    If your holy book fails to match reality ...

    Exactly and nicely put. The mystery is why religionists refuse to acknowledge this.

    Attention All Creationists, Here's Your Big Chance

    I suggest you have a look at Neil Shubin's book "Your Inner Fish". It's a fun read and makes clear the point at issue.

    The origins of religion

    So many still believe because they have been conned or coerced into doing so. Most of what is known about nature has been discovered only in the last few hundred years. Before that, all that was available was folk tales lacking evidential backing.
