Another victim of sheer madness. A total lack of intelligence. Sadly it is a trait that mankind is cursed with.
Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence - Carl Sagan
Mankind's intelligence walks hand in hand with it's stupidity.
Being an atheist says nothing about your overall intelligence, it just means you don't believe in god. Atheists can be as bright as any scientist and as stupid as any creationist.
You never really know just how stupid someone is, until you've argued with them.

Hard to believe that the middle east afew thousand years ago was the envy of the world in respect to scientific and mathematical innovation... then some asshole preachers got in positions of political power and declared both an affront.
Makes me wonder how far away we are from the same fate. There has been an awful lot of pushing for more and more religious types to get in power. In a couple of thousand years time will we be in a similar predicament?
Probably.

It was the envy of the world not but a few hundred years ago as well. The whole region got a giant, greasy, political and religious dicking.

Yes.... because destroying a BOOK is obviously a "crime" worthy of the death penalty.
What assholes. This is on the same level as hanging "witches".
You would think if there was a god he would come down from the sky and stop stupid shit like this that is perpetrated in his name.
Science flies us to the moon and stars. Religion flies us into buildings.
God allowed 200,000 people to die in an earthquake. So what makes you think he cares about YOUR problems?
