They are afraid because the church uses the fear of eternal torture and doom if you don't believe their shit.

Indeed ,and perhaps some of them are just fucking nuts.

I was thinking of providing a list,but it got VERY long.

OF COURSE being pig ignorant,stubborn,closed minded,stupid and nuts are not job requirements for a Christian or any other theist*, indeedly doodly not.However,those qualities give one a huge advantage,especially if you have all of them.

*excluding Scientologists of course, and possibly Mormons as well as ANY adult convert to ANY religion.

Does it make them stupid though to blindly believe what they do in spite of any evidence whatsoever?

What kind of a question is this, may I ask?

One worthy of thought I would think mehmet

My outlook on religion is this:
It is a personal matter, a matter of conscience.
I never ask people about why they choose to believe in a certain thing, or why they choose not to believe. They certainly must know it better, and may not be able to describe their feelings to me in their own words.
On the other hand, it is not a good thing to describe a person as ignorant or stupid for their belief into a religion, as I don't think that their non-belief does not make them any more intelligent, or wise.
So one could state that belief or non-belief is not a matter of profession, or intelligence, or your accumulated knowledge.
Some might look at science as a way to understand the workings of his/her God, some might look at it as proof that God doesn't exist.
So why judge the one, while praising the other?
And if you're going to state that the other is judging you, I'd say that you should stop complaining about it then.

In response to the OP, yes Blind faith is stupid. One tends to lead to the other.

So you are just posting an opinion??

Which I can safely value as nothing?

Welcome to the "Dark Side" Mighty Tack.

I would rather be damned for all eternity than suffer a delusion or the inability to reason .

just my opinion

[Rhythm]

Having your very ability to reason compromised is being damned for all of eternity, at least all of the eternity you'll ever experience.
