Yeah well I can only access this site from my phone since from the computer, it doesn't recognize my username-doing the best I can here, chief! And my phone makes things complicated sometimes. Its a wonder why they call the smart phones. But thanks for letting me know what to look for, thats all you had to do... so much for the rep point I gave you for being considerate

Ahhh... rep point, huh?.... considerate?... LOL
I had no idea you were browsing the forum on your phone..... why don't you use the mobile version? It's a bit more friendly... although it's crap for writing... they're both crap for writing posts...

I was not being silly about theology, though. Theology is one of the least useful enterprises humans have ever invented.

I understand. I just get frustrated sometimes at the disrespect shown towards philosophy here when people don't realize they use it all of the time. Every time someone takes a moral or political stance, they are using philosophy.

And yes, theology is mostly bullshit.

Skepticism is not a position; it is an approach to claims.
Science is not a subject, but a method.

I said "mostly," because theology is the philosophical attempt to understand god. The part that is useful is the part that leads you to the conclusion that there is no reason to believe in god in the first place.
