I never said that religon is logical its actually the opposite of logical its emotional and as I said causality is not important for religion. Things just happen without logic its gods work. its a completly different view of the world and has not much to do with scientific logic it has its own logic you cant understand if you dont believe. People just feel it must be right even though it makes no sense. BTW: You do realize I am not religious ? |
So you think gays should be denied the right to get married simply because the Bible says it's wrong and we should deny them this right even though empirical evidence says it's wrong. It's an interesting philosophical notion you've got there but how does it aplly to creating the best possible world for the most amount of people when all of the things that they believe are in conflict? I think the kind of notion you're talking about here connect with Matthew Alper's theories that people mainly opt to believe in irrational things like god because they're afraid of death and that they're actually hardwired to do this genetically. http://www.godpart.com
