so why you mad?
Me? mad? LOL
You obviously don't know me.
I'm just trying to make you accept other people's perspectives.
"Accept" as in "understand", not as in "become your own".
I don't accept dogmatism, my fully sarcastic apologies.
it is the unwillingness for people to accept that there are things they do not know that keeps us from colonizing mars by now which there is ice on as im sure you've heard.
you seem like a smart person pocaracus, you could be spending your time advancing science and helping us get to mars where maybe there would be no religion..
but you are stuck defending people's ignorance and irrationalities...
to admit you don't know whether or not gods exist is not the only stance, it is the present truth, and someday we may have proof and that will change, the idea will evolve but we need to be honest with where we are right now and such big ideas are over our head at the moment...

Now riddle me this: If an atheist is someone who does not believe in the existence of a god, how can an atheist be angry at any god?
Its possible to angry at a fictional being. For example, right now I'm really pissed off at Joffrey Baratheon. I hate the little shit's guts. Doesn't mean I think he is real.
Oh, I don't.... I've seen the future!
This is a spoiler, hasn't aired in the series... should com up in Episode 9 of Season 4
Only open is you are not afraid of spoilers, or have read beyond the 3rd book, a Storm of Swords.
Joffrey dies.
During his own wedding feast, after ordering Tyrion to fetch him some wine... He drinks it and snuffs it. Using the same compound that the septon tried to use on the Red priestess, on Dragonstone, where Stannis is... I think it was on season 2, ep.1.
Bonus: Notice what Margeary's mum does to the hair net she presented Sansa some time before the wedding...
So then... Margeary becomes queen consort with no king... oh, my!

what a waste of resources...
Well, I'm not working on going to Mars... but I am working on fusion power. Could be a necessary step to get to Mars.

Not to worry, I've read all the books and beyond - meaning the spoiler chapters of Winds of Winter. I'm just pissed at Joffrey because I've been rewatching Season 2. By the way:
I'm hoping it'd happen by the 1st or second episode of season 4. Storywise, not much happens between the Red and Purple weddings and if they are going to cover Tyrion's trial and escape and the whole drama at the wall, they can't push it off to the penultimate episode.
Besides, it's serve the little shit right. Even his death is not significant enough to be worthy of the 9th episode.
The poison used is called 'The Strangler' and it was Maester Cressen of Dragonstone - not a Septon - who tried to poison Melisandre.
Oh, and its Margaery's grandmum - Oleanna 'Queen of Thorns' Tyrell - who fixes Sansa's hairnet made of purple Amethysts.
Also, after Joffrey, his younger brother Tommen is crowned king and Margaery is currently married to him. Though the marriage hasn't been consummated due obvious reasons.
I was actually dissapointed when I realized that Christianity was full of shit. I was raised to believe in a loving, caring god. That I had a personal relationship with him. That no matter what happened to me god was always on my side.
That's a big loss for someone after you believe in it so fully.
You yank that mental crutch out and then you have to learn how to stand on your own two feet.
Everything I needed to know about life I learned on Dagobah.

havoc?
you mean you're struggling inside your own mind to be able to acknowledge present truth? you don't know chas....you don't know, it's the truth..
your supporting and justifying war in holding your stand on your belief ('im right') and you are no different than any religious person.
admitting it would mean that you have to stand for something that other people may condemn you for.. i cant make you a soldier and im not trying, im just exercising.
