Philosophy has many different branches of knowledge, even though they may not overlap it helps to understand the place of each one. There are tools for certain kinds of work. Don't screw your nails or hammer your screws. Use Science for the physical stuff and Religion for the spiritual stuff. It's that simple. Neither tool cancels or negates the other. It's not a competition of OR but a balance of AND. Side: It DOES

Half of the things Democrats tell us are science are really just dogma, which is religion minus god. Side: Naaaa
A number of recent books and articles would have you believe that—somehow—science has now disproved the existence of God. We know so much about how the universe works, their authors claim, that God is simply unnecessary: we can explain all the workings of the universe without the need for a Creator. And indeed, science has brought us an immense amount of understanding. The sum total of human knowledge doubles roughly every couple of years or less. In physics and cosmology, we can now claim to know what happened to our universe as early as a tiny fraction of a second after the Big Bang, something that may seem astounding. In chemistry, we understand the most complicated reactions among atoms and molecules, and in biology we know how the living cell works and have mapped out our entire genome. But does this vast knowledge base disprove the existence of some kind of pre-existent outside force that may have launched our universe on its way? Side: Naaaa
I have, as I have told YOU many times before, NO love of Islam … or any other religion. I also have NO animus AGAINST any religion that keeps to themselves and is HUMANE. Radical Islam is NOT humane, radical Christianity is not humane. Society, by majority, should decide WHAT IS HUMANE. I believe human common sense will make few mistakes here, and will shortly correct themselves if they DO! No single religion country has succeeded without tolerance for other beliefs. If America is "forced" to be a Christian-only country, it not only will fail … it will NOT be America. The same is true of a "single wing country". We need left AND right, we need ALL (and no religions), mostly we need TOLERANCE! I know that is a foreign word to you, that's why we would be better off without you and your "un-Jesus-like" hatred of others. Side: It DOES

Your interpretation of my bigotry is a bit off line. Bigotry means intolerance and prejudice, I have NO prejudice against Christianity, I have NO intolerance against Christianity. I simply don't BELIEVE in IT, or any other religion. My "intolerance" is in relation to those who say "everyone MUST believe as WE do"! THEY are just as "intolerant", and FAR more prejudicial than myself. Certainly, there are those atheists that are just as intolerant and prejudicial as yourself in their own way. I am not one of them. As long as you STOP PREACHING YOUR BIGOTRY AGAINST ATHEISM, and live the way YOU want to we will have no problems. Side: It DOES
