Quote:When they become Scientists, then and only then let them know evolution.Lol. "Let them", as if you have the right to dictate every piece of information distributed and exactly when it happens? Oh that's right, you're running a religious regime, I should come to expect such nonsense.
Quote:To me, this is the biggest one:"1) Put it this way. And I am not talking about terrorists. There are many many people who have lead and are leading crime free, drug free lives BECAUSE they converted into Christianity from Atheism. Are there ANY drug dealers or criminals who have lead righteouss lives BECAUSE they converted from Chrstianity to Atheism?"
The same can be said for martial arts, sports teams or dancing lessons. All sorts of things can turn peoples lives around. This doesn't require talking snakes, water-walkers, wine-transformers, parting seas, magic trees or women made from ribs (or eternal damnation).
I'll do the cons then
Scientific regress
Intellectual regress
Homosexual massacres
Non-virgin bride massacres
Sabbath issues
A contradictory law system
An uproar over whose misinterpretation of the bible should be accepted
The end of modern medicine (probably replaced by prayer)
Increase in demand for eye surgery (Jesus said to take your eye out if you look on a woman with lust... creepy)
Increased suicide rates (he also told people to drink poison to test their faith)
Landscaping issues (he also said if you pray for a mountain to move in his name, the mountain will move)
Okay now I'm just getting silly But these are serious issues in my opinion!
