Again, prove it! I see no links or facts stating that humans need to be taught that senseless slaughter and rape is wrong.


my previous post proved it, as everyone else can see

im done

How exactly did this post turn into a grudge match between s13guy and James the Lesser. I dont even understand what you two are arguing about! This thread is about the seperation between church and state. How about you two drop this pointless argument and get back on topic by restating your opinions regarding the issue either I missed them or they were never really stated clearly.


Then you can decide if you really hold opposing views and argue (on topic please) all you like...

Hey boogyman, reason I am mad is that he posted things with no proof. Also, he edited some things out after I pointed them out so I couldn't quote it. Wow, italicized? Well here is the same thing for you.

Psychologists state that all Jews and Masons have a yearly orgy on christmas just for the hell of it.

Wow, it is italicized, it must be true.

Went to your site, might as well go to the KKK site for the latest news on blacks and what they think. Or maybe the www.IhateMasons.com for info on the Masons instead of going to a Mason that I know.

It is not me that needs to disprove anything. You state something so you need to prove it.

Tell me what i stated and quote me, i still am puzzled by which statement you are talking about.


Originally posted by James the Lesser
I swear, that is actually a good arguement amongst the christians. "Well, instead of us proving god, why don't you disprove it? Well, you can't, so we right, even though we have no proof." Same reason I can follow and teach about the pebble people. Can you prove they don't exist? Well, guess that means they exist.

Hmm, odd. I dont recall asking you to disprove a god. please quote the statement if i did ask you to.

Civilizations started before chrstianity and jews. Sumarians. China. Japan. Egypt. Greece. The villages on Engfland, Scotland, and Ireland. They were civilized, they followed rules you say jews/christians made up. But they were about 5,000-20,000 years older.

Please quote me where I said the jews/christians made up the playground rules. I do not recall stating that at all.

I was never told that raping and stealing was wrong. I just know it is wrong.

hmm, you sure you aren't Christian?


Originally posted by James the Lesser
What do you mean "nor would we speak so highly of our Judeo-Christian values."? Those rules are not christian in origin.

Please stop taking my posts out of context, quote the text where I said laws originate from Judeo-Christian values. Oh wait you can't, because I never said that.


Originally posted by James the Lesser
What historical facts? I have never seen anything saying that says until 2,000 years ago everyone was an animal following no rules or morals. You have no proof of any of this because there is none. Instead of asking me to disprove it why don't you try to prove it?

Ironically enough, you sound like a Christian (they deny evolution)
In humans, it is not only our genes that can predispose us to behave in particular ways. Our behaviour can also be controlled by beliefs and emotional reactions that are instilled in us, usually when we are young. Through the process of socialisation, our parents and others inculcate us with ways of behaving that become part of who we are, and influence our actions for the rest of our life.

Inculcated behaviours typically include moral codes and social norms that influence the way we deal with others. Norms differ between cultures, but they are likely to include beliefs that it is wrong to cheat and lie, to murder, to fail to return favours from friends, to ignore those in urgent need of help, and to commit adultery. And cultures usually include norms that support and authorise punishment of those who break norms. Commonly, these systems of norms are reinforced by religious beliefs

Your argument holds no water, so you must argue by inventing/twisting statements that are generally considered ignorant.
