I think that about sums it up entirely, but I also come here with some video support of a recent newscast from the Young Turks:

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rM6oO4ySyJQ&feature=sub

I didn't realize that Cenk was an Atheist (though I suspected it from things he has said before) but I find little to disagree with his assessments on the topic but a number of interesting points were brougth up.

The whole thing is very interesting, either way, but I have little else to say about it.

Never really knew the story behind the tower of babel, so thanks for that video.

So humans worked together...god didn't like it, so (somehow) magically scattered them all around the world (nice metaphor for how religion causes division Tongue) because he felt threatened by them building a tower into heaven (but we know heaven isn't literally in the clouds). Religious folk, are we meant to take this story literally or is it just a metaphor for god being a spiteful dick?
