The Effects of the Religious Right on Politics and on Religion
The Effects of the Religious Right on Politics and on Religion
Who would deny that the ascendancy of the religious right has been bad for the U.S.? Its destructive consequences are plain to see. It has polarized the nation. It has made America a laughingstock in the eyes of the educated of the world. And it has encouraged devout believers to think of themselves as agents of the divine, and their political opponents as enemies of God.

Besides the political damage, religion itself has been damaged. picked by 2manyusernames 2 months ago

 Right Brain vs. Left Brain:  Creativity Test
Right Brain vs. Left Brain: Creativity Test
Being creative or artistic doesn’t mean you know how to draw or play an instrument. Being creative is a way of thinking, a way of viewing the world.
Creative people use the RIGHT side of their brains more than the LEFT. Take the test and find out if your brain is RIGHT for a creative career. picked by ogri2003 12 months ago

 Person Who Refused To Certify Gay Marriages Due To Her Strict Religion - Not So Religious
Person Who Refused To Certify Gay Marriages Due To Her Strict Religion - Not So Religious
Lilian Ladele, the bigoted registrar won a lawsuit against Islington Council when they punished her for not performing her duties. She claimed that her strict religious beliefs superseded the will of the law and her employer. It has recently been discovered that she had a baby out of wedlock. I guess her strict religious beliefs only matter when it suits her. picked by 2manyusernames 1 week ago

 Religion is bullshit
Religion is bullshit
Hey, it's the name of the site! "If we believe absurdities, we shall commit atrocities" -- Voltaire (1694-1778) Throughout history, religion has been responsible for a large proportion of the suffering in the world - yet religious beliefs are based in ancient myths and legends that should have been discarded centuries ago. The purpose of this site is to point out the errors in religi... read full post picked by 2manyusernames 7 months ago

 The Big Religion Chart
The Big Religion Chart
The ReligionFacts "Big Religion Chart" is an attempt to summarize all the complexities of religions and belief systems into tiny little boxes on a single, quick-reference comparison chart. Yes, of course this is impossible. As we always warn with our comparison charts, this is no substitute for reading about religions in greater detail, talking with religious adherents, etc. But this rel... read full post picked by 2manyusernames 5 months ago

 Einstein's view of religion revised
Einstein's view of religion revised
It has long been assumed that Albert Einstein weighted science and religion equally, but a letter written by him in 1954 may well revise that. Describing god as the expression and product of human weakness and the bible as a collection of primitive legends does not sit well with the previously held assumption that he weighted science and religious belief in equal regard. An abridged version of ... read full post picked by pocksucket 2 months ago

Test Our Meat? Hell No!
" the USDA guidelines only test 1% of cows. Creekstone went to court for the right to test all of their cows and won at a lower level, but the Bush Administration is appealing it, saying that "more widespread testing does not guarantee food safety and could result in a false positive that scares consumers." picked by gammerus 4 weeks ago

Religious Test For Muslim Congressman?
First Muslim elected to congress facing criticism for wanting to have a picture taken of him being "sworn in" with his hand on the Koran the reason i put "sworn in" in quotes is because the picture is taken after being officially sworn in. so placing his hand on the Koran for the picture is just for media use and carries no official merit. the link is a commentary so here is... read full post picked by T3ND3R 2 years ago
