Another religious post.

Who's attempting to cram religion down throats, Krause?


In this country? Christian fundamentalists.

Nobody is poking religion down your throat Harry.


Bull****.

For about the hundredth time, who here is poking religion down your throat?

And when you can't answer that one, who here is making all the posts about religion?



Why does discussion about religion so impact you, Johnny the Racist?
It's not as if you have any serious religious beliefs, eh?


You have no serious religious beliefs, Harry.



Sure I do. I believe most of what is called "religion" arose from
earlier man's superstitions and inability to understand nature, his
surroundings, and what seemed then to be inexplicable. Most of what
comprises the fundamentals of your religion arose because the promise of
an "wonderful afterlife in heaven with Jesus" was appealing to the
overwhelming majority of ordinary people whose existence in early times
consisted of endless toil, a short life and a lot of suffering.

Those are pretty serious religious beliefs. I don't know whether there
*is* a god, and neither does anyone else. In the absence of proof, I am
a skeptic. What I do know, though, is that religion - all religion - is
a construct of man.
