[quote]Uhh... Wut. No. They're incredible rational. They help preserve the societies we live in and protect us from each other, which increases our overall survivability without compromising our own independent lives. It also puts us all on an equal playing field.[/quote]

But I offered you a better means of accomplishing this that you refused in the name of human rights.

I see talking asses on this forum nearly every day.

[Quote]I don't believe because skepticism taken to its rational end point leads to atheism. I want you to read this very carefully: Skepticism taken to its rational end point, results in atheism. SKEPTICISM. You don't have to be 100% skeptical of everything. Faith is in no way worse than skepticism. It's just your flavour of ice cream: So long as you're a good person I couldn't give a rat's ass what it is you believe. You could believe Japanese school girls rape tentacle monsters in heaven for all I care, really. If Christianity strikes your fancy for being the most believable thing, then believe in it. I'm not going to tear down your church or stalin-execute you for not not believing, or for not being as skeptical as I am.

I did not, at any point, say that I am more rational than you. I said that I am more skeptical than you. Humongous difference. [/quote]

Good. Now go tell Gwazi :/
