plural noun: religions
So it is system of worship after all, even according to you. But let's look at a dictionary with real credibility, like "Oxford" dictionary, what it says about religion:
The belief in and worship of a superhuman controlling power, especially a personal God or gods.

here is where my defination came from:
https://en.oxforddictionaries.com/definition/religion
So from the Oxford:
(just below the bit you quoted.)
1.1A particular system of faith and worship.
Wuuuutttt????? It's the same word for word definition I used!!! How stupid are you?!!?! IF you saw my defination word for word in what you looked up what assume that I am making crap up and then cut and paste a friggen link to my own word???? Did you REALLY think i just pulled some random defination out of the air that happened to be a word for word match, THEN post a link to it as if I wasn't going to check????
Imagine that... Are you trying to be intellectually dishonest here/Suppressed correlative?
Or maybe you simply don't know how dictionaries work...
I like to assume the best in you 'good people' so to me it is far less shameful to not know how a dictionary works that to be as intellectually dishonest as you'd have to be to intentionally try and fool me out of a defination I pulled from your same source material. (I refuse to believe any of you are that friggen stupid.)
So Here's a crash course sport. the 1st defination is also called the primary defination, it is the defination most used or assoceiated with this word. the subsequent definations are also valid interpretations of said word.
Ok so I was not using the god angle I was using the fanatical devotion to a system of faith and worship. Even defined the word worship, because i knew if you did not know the word faith had more than one valid meaning then you would not understand any of the tertiary meanings to the word worship as well. I even used bushido as a contempary form of religion not devoted to a deity. Can't really argue the point as bushido is indeed considered a religion even though it has nothing to do with deity worship. As it is born out of Confucianism, Shintoism and Buddhism. (again all three have no deity worship involved but are religions.) THAT IS THE REASON FOR THE ALTERNATE DEFINITIONS YOU IDIOT! Not all religions center themselves around a god or gods!!!
So your knee jerk definition of religion is indeed partially true as I pointed out. but again to deny the secondary and tertiary definations is... not smart.

Quote:Whenever someone writes that science is a religion, that atheism is a religion, that evolution has no evidence means that he or she is uneducated dumbass. Especially you who cites christian websites as source.OMG
your just making stuff up now huh???
You didn't even read what I wrote did you? yet you think you can still hang... Awe I'm flattered that you'd put me up there with you, but next time you might want to actually read a little more before you run off half cocked.
(you make it too easy for me to make you look foolish)

Quote:Bushido is a way of living, similar to being vegan. It's not a religion. But it is hard to talk to person like you who has such subjective look on reality, where you only believe what you want to believe despite the facts and evidence. Like you're probably the only one in the world that believes that Bushido is a religion, concluding that by taking half definitions from dictionary and mixing it with stuff you simply make up. Now that is stupid and you are stupid. You may not be genetically stupid, maybe you need to educate yourself and learn how to think, but again if you feel content toward science books because you think they're false religion you fall back in your magic circle of stupidity. Try with reading Dawkins' "Magic of Reality"if you want to argue the finer points of Bushido then I provided 3 other indisputable religions you can chew on to process my larger point.

Quote:Science changes and upgrades, but difference is that religious person stubbornly believes in an old science.Show me in the definition of religion where this statement is made as a qualifier to be 'religious.'
Quote:If you're a christian or Jew you believe in ancient Egyptian science how the world was created, because books of creation in the bible were based on ancient Egyptian and Babylonian sciences on that matter.actually you dont.
Quote: Long time ago people believed that world is flat and that was also scientific worldview, but bad and outdated now. It was also considered that Sun was god Apollo that rode his flaming chariot, but then Anaximander did some experiments and concluded it was false and world is not flat. So unintentionally he killed a god Apollo. Science changed, but some religious people, like Bible literalists still believe stubbornly that archaic science, just like you believe wizard created universe in 6 days.My veiws have been posted a few weeks of my membership here and it does not include a 6 day creation cycle. My view encompasses a 6 day creation and incorperates as many of the bazillions of years your 'science' also needs. In essence it makes any number 'science' or d-bags like you throw out completely moot without changing one word of the text.
Quote:So yes science changes but it will never change in a way that it turns out wizard created universe in 6 days, just like it won't turn again that the world is flat or there is no Sun but Apollo in flaming chariot.but that's the thing isn't it... You can't ever say science can never say a wizard did or did not do anything... You only have faith in the way things are going... If you were a true worshiper you would have to simply follow wherever the evidence leads.
