autigeremt 6,778 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I've noticed that Mr. Bill become a bit more "centered" in the last couple of months. This isn't the first time he has questioned the far left of late. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aufan59 83 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I was simply agreeing with Bill Maher, the subject of this thread. He agrees that religious people are crazy, but this doesn't mean you can equate Christian craziness to Islamic terrorist craziness. Posting "prayers sent" after talking to yourself in hopes that this will help some stranger, you are crazy. Not as crazy as blowing up bombs to kill people, but it is still crazy.

TitanTiger 20,542 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I think it's crazy to look around at this world and this universe and all its amazing complexity and think that way, way, way back when, somehow, someway there was just some energy of some sort that managed to somehow create all this "something" out of nothing. But not only that, but that it would develop over the years and somehow manage to create not just inanimate matter, but life. And not just life, but intelligent life with a will and desires and concepts such as love and beauty. Crazy cuts both ways, bro. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crazy is believing that the universe came about through something called the "Big Bang THEORY" and believing that billions of years ago we crawled out of the ocean as some sort of ancient organism and then magically evolved into the intelligent beings we are today. It takes mountains of more faith to believe that than to believe that a creator created it and us. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The theory of evolution and the big bang theory are still a more compelling than the theory that god made everything. They are also more useful, as if we assume god did everything, then there is nothing left to be curious about... And nothing you have mentioned compares to the craziness of talking to yourself and believing that by doing this your are helping a stranger in need.

Aufan59 83 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I don't know whether you talk to yourself. I talk to myself all the time. I'm just not crazy enough to think that it will benefit a stranger. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Aufan59 83 Posted April 24, 2013 Share Posted April 24, 2013 I do believe in a completely naturalistic explanation... it is a more useful belief than assuming god is responsible. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Then you believe that all this came from nothing and managed to become something all on its own. Or you somehow believe that something eternally existed, which is a whole other problem.
