Because most of them are uneducated.


Well that was your last post, so I am guessing this is why you are being banned.

Although... I think you just used the wrong word. Many Christians are educated. But that subject is kind of a taboo for some.

My Mom will not even read "The Davinci Code" because of its basic message. She is not dumb, she just does not want to let anything like that in her head. She believes the more junk you read or watch the more likely it is that you will question. For her to have faith in whatever she wants to believe, she cannot question.

That is something I find to be very porblematic for religion and religous people. If what they say is true, religion should be able to handle such a question and respond to in a way that supports its existence. The fact that religious conservatives reject questions and queries implies that they either have no favourable answer or they want to supress such questions in order to restrict free thought and make sure followers stay obidient.
