Islam’s Role in Boko Haram Kidnappings - Dr Mark Durie

Basically calls them non-contributors.

Quote:What has theology ever said that is of the smallest use to anybody? When has theology ever said anything that is demonstrably true and is not obvious? I have listened to theologians, read them, debated against them. I have never heard any of them ever say anything of the smallest use, anything that was not either platitudinously obvious or downright false. If all the achievements of scientists were wiped out tomorrow, there would be no doctors but witch doctors, no transport faster than horses, no computers, no printed books, no agriculture beyond subsistence peasant farming. If all the achievements of theologians were wiped out tomorrow, would anyone notice the smallest difference? Even the bad achievements of scientists, the bombs, and sonar-guided whaling vessels work! The achievements of theologians don't do anything, don't affect anything, don't mean anything. What makes anyone think that "theology" is a subject at all?

It makes yourself feel good to have a "minimalist" mindset that fucks everyone who doesn't fit your views, but your minimalist wailing makes the world a worse place because you can't see an ally when he is staring you in the fucking face. Pathetic. Fuck the arseholes on this degenerate forum like both of you. Fucking juvenile morons.

Good luck finding other active atheist forums.
