You think plants aren't alive?
Quote:Do you think it hurts an orange tree or an apple tree when their fruit falls to the ground and we it? Does it hurt a bush when we eat berries before they fall to the ground?
Fruit? No. Carrots. >>>Crunch, crunch, crunch<<< That's one dead carrot and the crunch means that it was still alive when you bit into it. Salad is murder.
Quote:No, it is 89% according to the Gallup poll from 3 years ago. Only 11% atheists in the world. Learn to read a poll. I am not even religious.
Poll: 11% atheist, 22% not religious, 63% religious, 4% did not respond. You can't claim that those 22% believe as you do. You have no basis for that.
And you are a very religious person. You believe in God and an afterlife. That makes you a believer.
Quote:Everena: No fool, people are causing suffering.
So does God. You can't blame humans for natural disasters or the carnivores. All the fault of your malevolent God.

No poll polls everybody. That's the point of a poll. That's why we call it a poll.
The Wikipedia article does not figure any of that in. It states how many are atheists and then you assumed that you could claim the other 93%. You can't.
You are very religious. You are a fervent believer. You just don't belong to a specific religion.
Seek strength, not to be greater than my brother, but to fight my greatest enemy -- myself.
