Evolution vs Religion

You can't possibly be serious.

It could be argued in both ways.

In this case, it's also because Science focuses on somatic characteristics, where the differences reside.
Whereas any Faith focuses on the Soul.

No it can't be argued both ways. It is impossible for science to be racist or to be anything for that matter. A scientist can be but not science.

But a scientist lacking in any faith would be more likely to hold racist views, than a person of faith would be.

Whereas any such tendencies displayed by religious institutions were imposed from the outside, secondary to the marriage between State and Religion.

I'm sorry I didn't realize I was talking to Stupid McStupidson. Carry on.
 
A scientist who is also a RW atheist
focuses exclussively on bodily functions, engineering type of stuff of how things work, and on pop ego psychology. The lower level of human functioning.

A scientist who is also a person of faith (be it religion or some other philosophy) is also interested in the soul, in the transpersonal.

I think that that the first one, or any more concrete thinkers are more likely to hold racist views.
 
Postmodern Scientific Racism is a central topic in current events, of course it's no surprise all you intellectuals have no clue what's going on.

Here's a good starting place:

If any of you need more guidance through the absurdity of the Postmodernist world we live in today, just ask, you might get lucky and I'll reply.

Your link not mine.

Aaaaand we're done.

Exactly.
Postmodernist are in our colleges teaching kids this pseudoscience. That is the problem.

Bret Weinstein, a biology professor at Evergreen has talked about this- the clash of Science and Postmodernism in the universities.

Jordan Peterson has talked about.

Camille Paglia.

etc.

You're arguing against yourself, dumbass.
 
These RW atheists have elevated Science to the level of a Religion.

Moderate atheists, agnostics and people of faith hold Science in high regards as well, but they view it as a set of useful tools.
They think like researchers, not like engineers.
 
Race is a social construct. Gender is a social construct.
Sound familiar?

Yeah, it's the Social Justice bullshit we are being fed by the mainstream, kids are being taught this, and it is anti-science.

Thanks for the larf, chucklefuck!
 
"Self," I said to myself upon spying this thread. "Do not open that thread."

So I didn't because I knew it was a train wreck in the making. But the thread stayed at the top so there had to be something going on in there. I wished I knew what it was but I wasn't going to open it. I just wasn't.

And then I ran out of other unread threads to open. So I logged off and did some other things, like work and ebay and some more work and looking at houses and some more work, and then came back. Oh noes, still no unread threads on the GB except this one.

So, I closed one eye and clicked.

Yep, a train wreck.

At least I still have 1 good eye.

Someone has a dedicated and loyal fan base.
 
I think most of this poster’s analysis would produce better quality discussion if the context of self versus community were added.

Or Religion vs Evolution if you choose.

Before I dive in let me state up front that I reject any, and all, forms of organized religion.

From a young age I studied religions, every one that I could read about. All of them professed to know the 'truth.' And most of them demanded that I give them part of my wealth so they could spread the 'truth.'

Invariably their truths were based on HOW you should follow THEIR particular truth.

BUT

Going back as far as I've been able to discover ALL of these religions have a common denominator as far as ethics within their own tribe.

All of these many and varied religions have 'rules.' And if you divorce the rules from the religions you find that they are remarkably alike. So I think, why? Well, the only reason that makes any sort of sense to me is that those particular 'rules' are the only way you can create anything that can be called an "organized" society.

Pick up any core work of any great religion, Islam excepted, it's garbage, and you'll find rules to live be, rules to raise your children by. Take the Bible for example. Divorce every phrase in that book that refers to God and read it as if it were written by Shakespeare. Fiction with a historical perspective. While fiction is, indeed, fiction there can be no doubt that humanity takes a great many lessons form fiction. There were as many observational truths in "Forrest Gump" as there were flaws. Fiction is nothing more than a tool to focus the mind on the important lessons the life has to put on your plate.

You can not claim on the one hand that others are to blame for your lot in life and on the other adhere to free will. To do so is to condemn yourself to perpetual slavery. You have admitted to yourself, and society, that you have no control over your own life.

You can not claim on one hand that you are an evolutionary products of apes and yet on the other that you are immune from the evolutionary imperatives that being the monkey your are brings with it.

Society violates the rules of order at it's own peril
 
Yup. I noticed my syntax error after you posted it.

But it's different coming from you
than if it came from those two clowns who keep thumping their chests, hoping to look like alpha chimps. :rolleyes::D

There are so many.
