Atheists condone and condemn rape

The only good theocratic country in the world is Iran. Which hasn't attacked another country in hundreds of years

*ahem* http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Iran_iraq_war

Also worth noting, they've stated that they want to wipe Isreal off the map (aka attacking another nation), but they aren't going to because they know that if they try, the rest of the world will turn Iran into a giant, smoking crater. Not to mention, they aren't fond of the west and would probably attack one of us except, again, they'd lose the ensuing war.

It's illogical to say "political and religious are same" because those who are claiming something does not mean what they're doing is representative of what they claim unless they're perfect beings with no room for error

Did anyone understand that? I sure didn't.

Also, our confused friend sleepy doesn't seem to have an understanding of how evolution works. No, we didn't get our morals from Allah or from Jesus or from Yahweh or from Zeus or any other mytholigical being. We have them, yes, because empathy and social structures are part of human evolution. We evolved to care about each other and care about our group. That was especially important as our brains started getting bigger since it resulted in women giving birth to babies eariler in development, resulting in babies that were more or less helpless and dependen on a group helping them and the mother for suvival. And it's not unusual for evolution to favor social creatures. Look at ants or bees or termites; they're incredibly social, with individual bees gladly sacrificing their own life to protect the hive and drones sacrificing their lives to mate and ensure the survival of their group. Hell, if you want to look at something closer to humans, look at big cats like Lions with their prides and wolf packs. Yes, evolution has created group dynamics because social skills are productive to survival of a species.
