@ rayaan
Firstly, thanks for fixing my quotes.

RE religion, yes sometimes it feels like it is. More specifically other people's religion is a pain in my arse. Religion is like farts, you tend to mind your own.

RE not being sure, I guess I'm talking about the difference between the religion see in others and the religion I practice myself. We could run a poll for the theists to ask how much doubt they have if you like.

You're welcome.

Won't argue with that.

I disagree. I mean, it's pretty clear what difference you were talking about.

You wrote (emphasis mine):
"The difference between science and religion is that science allows for 'we don't know' and does not claim to yet have all the answers."


It's alright - you don't have to elaborate on that if you are too confused now. Wink

How are you planning to free mind slaves if you can't free yourself yet?

Yes, I am now well and truly confused. Only to be expected.

And feeling, I actually quite like my matrix.

... which I think kind of goes against the gist of your original post here. Smile

You wrote that religion is like an enemy, and yet you like it.
