I think it would depend on my state of mind at the time. If someone killed my children, and later I found out who did it....it would be ok for me to murder that son of a bitch, but to others it might not be ok.

1. War is unnecessary.
2. No need to be so defensive. We are having a discussion. I did not say my opinion is any more important than yours.
Relax.
Not that I'm aware of. I should also say that I'm not concerned with what the koran says either about how I should live. Are you concerned about what the koran says on how you should live?

A big part of religious discussions I have a problem with is when people say they believe something, but then say they know something about what they believe.

Like I said, it depends on my frame of mind. If someone kills my children, the frame of mind I imagine I would be in is to kill the guy who did it. Would I go to prison for it? I'm sure I would, but that guy would be dead.

that is quite disturbing. you know you would go to prison for that? There is no right way to do the wrong thing...

I'm just speculating that that's how I would react. In reality, I don't know. When something as tragic as that happens to a person, who knows what they would do?edit on 19-3-2012 by Hydroman because: (no reason given)

I think your confusing faith, rather than believing and knowing something about it. To believe and know something about it would not be odd at all, after all you must know of something to believe in it. Faith on the other hand is the expectation of somethings existence based on intangable evidence. Though the point you were trying to make would then be valid.I believe you were referring to the latter.

Atheism isn't really stupid, it's the way humans are born. Humans aren't born with a belief in any god, they have it implanted in their brain as a child.
