To cuddles...
its fair to say that religion and their leaders do try to promote good morals and teachings to younger generation generally speaking.
morals like honesty and peace is being preached. However, religion is inefficiency means to achieve the correct morals and stuff. good morals are hard to decide anyway, in our dog eat dog world. Like i say, to use a god as a guide is nonsenscial, because there is simply no truth in it. Therefore, it is unwise to promote peace and progress of humanity using a false idea.
Lets use more practical ways that people are using in the world. Its time for religion to expire its existence gradually.
alot of freethinkers has the idea of... its none of my business, believers can choose to think what they like....
these freethinkers are naive..... because we live in a collective world where things like connected. If we humanity dun progress fast ennuff, we will experience the consequence in the near future.
similarly, the law of the society and its structure will accomodate its people belief. If people belief are outdated and based on falsehoods, then the government and society are being dragged down by such stupidity.
I seriously think that those freethinkers who had this idea of ..."its none of my business" to be naive in that they do not know what the what happens to other people will affect them also. This , i think, is due to the lack of knowledge and the narrowminded of the mind.
If all the current and past great contributors of our world thinks in small scale about their own lives and the families and friends only, the society and humanity today would not have developed to what it is today.
We need more people who can dream and plan big things.
when you tested already please remember to share those 4D and TOTO number with me ok? PM me and let me know thanks

I don't know about other freethinkers, but I don't have that it's none of my business idea.. It's just that I don't have a fixed belief in any religion because I believe ultimately whichever is to preach good. so as long as one does good, it doesn't matter what religion you're from.
However, religion is inefficiency means to achieve the correct morals and stuff. good morals are hard to decide anyway
... and therefore being subjective. If something is subjective, what's there to discuss?
I think I will rest my case. I don't see the point of discussing (perhaps to the extent of arguing) something that's not objective.
And another thing before you start the Atheism crap. A subjective topic doesn't suggest that Athetism is better.
still havent go to cemetary and see what will happen ?
aiya,, u talk cock no.1 in front of monitor.. but when ask u to go cemetary and swear out loud or even sleep there, u dont want.. aiya... all ppl here know u coward with cocky talk infront of monitor with all bullshit bout stories of ppl swearing god or ghost doesnt exist and they died lol.. worst part.. u even do calculation lol
PLease la.. stop this before more and more ppl noticed your stupidity
I last time army everyweek also have to pass cemetery...
anyway.. whatever my reasons are..
the truth is only that there is no god or ghost. the conclusion comes from a process of reasoning, mathematics and other science knowledge.
As for the part about freethinkers who allow others to practice their religions, what they are doing is that they allow them to continue to have an uncritical mind. Therefore, the society will progress slower than possible.
I believed, we should not co-erce people to disbelieve. However, we can encourage and convince them. That being said, I seldom spend time on atheism or promoting it frequently anyway. I only use this atheism forum once a while.
My explanation is simple. If the world is filled with people who are supertitious, then the world and its people will progress slowly. That is a fact. Another fact is this. The rich poor gap of the world can also be partly explained by the fact that majority of the world citizens are mostly concerned with their own lives.
Frankly speaking, i am concerned with my own live also. However, I know others will also affect my lives. therefore, sometimes I have to do things outside my own lives and interfere with others. I am selfish person actually.
I can say all ghost or higher beings are really lousy and shiXXy if they really exist because for all their powers and ability, they chose to do silly things and useless things. They are so crap.....
If they really exist, i would beseech them to wake up their idea and do something useful for the humanity, or at least for the universe....
at least a group of engineers will sit around and try to create a building for people to live. What do ghosts and gods do all day, if they exist?
an example about the impracticality of moral teachings taught from religion or schools or parents.
One should not lie....
This is a crap advice loh. So many people lie in the world everyday and sometimes people would even advise you to lie.
The truth is... one should not lie generally speaking, but there will be times when you have to lie and its okay to lie.
This experiment shows that one month after i show my disbelief and challenge of god and ghost to possessed me or injure me after my internet appeal, I am still fairly fine except for a few discomfort during the past month.
This is because ghost and god don't exist. That is why they cannot disturb me in the first place.
Anyone realise that we're living in a 3 spatial dimensions and 1 dimension of time world?
We cannot perceive what lies in the higher dimensions, just like how an animated sentient object in a 2 spatial dimensions world (think a hypothetical neurologically conscious and intelligent individual drawn on a cardboard trying to visualize our world) would not see/interact with our world and ultimately, us.

Ha. This is a common argument used by believers.
So what am I supposed to believed then? God is a flying dog wearing nike shirt all the time. Humans do not have all the knowledge, so the correct actions is not to make superficial claims, like what religions do.
so who are we supposed to pray to. A key? A dog? A sacred stone? Maybe these things are god because the god embedded in these things cannot be detected by human measurements.
So start kneeling down whenever you guys encounter a dog today and pray for your allegience to gods. If scientist ask you why you are praying to the dog, you just reply," well, its something that is beyond our dimension and something beyond science, therefore, these dogs are not just animals. They are actually god hidden in dogs bodies and checking out the world to gather information.
We cannot perceive what lies in the higher dimensions, just like how an animated sentient object in a 2 spatial dimensions world (think a hypothetical neurologically conscious and intelligent individual drawn on a cardboard trying to visualize our world) would not see/interact with our world and ultimately, us. "
So what are you waiting for, starting praying to dogs now. To add on, we can add the pascal wager. If I pray to dog and go to heaven, i win. If I pray to dog and get it wrong, its ok, i dun lose much."
have u go to cemetary at night alone yet?
Whats the point u talk big in internet? PI wont go in the internet to look for existence of ghost at all lol

It was facetoface challenge. But what this TS do ? Writing cocks here hoping any ghost or god would appear then claim theres not god or ghost when they dont appear. Sure he never learn science in school on how to conduct an experiment lol.

Ya. i have seen "sin tua" before also, on internet i think.
SO what... what real workdone does all these gods, demi gods and ghost do to our world???
ALl these things are just elaborate cultural and religious ceremony ... which claims to bring peace and posperity to people....
ya. SOme much to achieving peace and prosperity in our world.
Look. everywhere there are cermonies where god possessed and they spread peace and safety to people in many many countries.... centuries and centuries... we have been doing that...
So much for the power of these gods and ghost.......
I think i better place my bet organising a real think tank or social group comprise of humans being meeting weekly to draft out real steps of how to do and what to do in our lives....
Open your eyes and see... its great and famous people, human beings, like gandhi or whoever, individuals , all humans that have really make a contribution towards peace and safety......
nobel prize winner... the indian guy who invending micro lending to make poor people have money to set up their business....
Well.. what have god and ghost created for us??
Who invented internet to let all of us use here???? Its human, not god. God did not throw a instruction manual down to teach us.... Why? becos he does not exist in the first place.
Natural disaster like cyclones, tsunamis and earthquakes are natual processes of physical earth. If you want to save people lives, you got to study physics, geography, internet, politics and technology to learn knowledge about how best to handle these natural processes and organise the movement of peole, food and supplies so as to minimise damages....
Ha! You think if we all carry out ceremonies and let god/ghost possess us. Then what? All the cyclones, vocalnoes, tsunamis will are 'zun zun' miss humans beings and their properties issit? Ya, let those knifes and inflict pain on those worshippers so that gods will bring peace to humans. That is not happening you know.
Practicality is the important thing inhman society. Supernatural is not.
Hmm, where is January now?
Well, kenneth. u dun expect me to keep updating this thread to show that i am still alive right? my life is very huge... i dun live in this thread only you noe?
