Why would you adopt the 'belief' in Social Darwinism if you didn't have your belief in "God"? You're speaking in non sequiturs. I myself do not believe in your god, yet I don't feel the need to adopt any sort of extreme views. I know for a fact that I'm not unique in this. I apologise in advance for the following observation, but based on what you've been sharing around here you remind me of an hypothesis I came across a long time ago. Consider the old valve radio sets. If we remove one valve, and the radio starts howling, do we conclude that the purpose of the valve is to prevent the howling? Similarly, on what basis are we to assume that the removal of a belief in gods will lead inevitably to societal breakdown?
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'
