A Godless Universe
It's centered around the believe in God (s, esses) and that not even necessarily, like with Buddhism. Having religion doesn't necessary imply there has to be a God. It's a cultural believe system. So I guess you don't get what I mean?

A Godless Universe
I know that’s what he said. But I don't think you two understand what I was pin-pointing. I am not talking about religion being here or not and how without religion there would not be so many literate people. Let's forget about the impact of religion, because it's the same in what I mean to say. What I am saying is that it is weird to say that religion would be absent or significantly different if there was no God. Because by saying this you are implying already that there is an existing God. It's like the old argument; the Bible holds the truth because it is the word of God and we know it's the word of God because that is written in the Bible. It's circular reasoning. Now saying that religion must be different if there would be no God, is not a circular reasoning, but it's a petitio principii nonetheless, a logical fallacy. Your proposition already holds implicitly the premise that God exists. Proposition: Religion would be absent or different if there is no God Implied Premise 1: God exists You say that religion is the way it is because of God. But how do you know? Let’s make the same statement with the premise that God does not exist. What if there’s no God and yet there’s religion because people believe in God? Can you also understand that atheists do not hold the premise that God exists yet they know there’s religion in this world. So how does the proposition hold for them? In both ways of reasoning there can be religion, whether there is a God or not, simply because people believe there is God. Do you see my problem with the way you reason? And with this I still stand by my last post; Already assuming the existence of God, how do you know religion would be different if there would not be a God? Do you think no one would simply believe in God if he’s not existing? And what about polytheism? In the beginning of writing people believed in several Gods. Are these all existing? Is the religion that was a result of believing in several Gods only possible to exist the way it does because all those Gods really exist? Are all different religions basically referring to the same God? What about the religion Buddhism? Can only one religion be addressing the right God? Urgh, I am using too many words and feel like I am just repeating what I just said. And I hate that English is not my natural language and that performal I am much better than verbal, but what use is that when only your written words will be interpretated. Anyway, do you now understand the basics of what I meant to say?

A Godless Universe
I find it very brave of you Braddoc to start a topic like this :thumbsup: I think why people don't discuss topics like this more often is because it is very sensitive for a lot of people and often such topics just turn into a fight. (Mark isn't here anymore, so the chance is smaller than before :P) This is a really weird way of reasoning to me. You are basically saying that religion only exists because God exists? But why? It doesn't matter if God exists or not, it matters for religion to exist only whether people believe there is a God. So I think religion can still exist if there's no God. Also, you can't say there wouldn't be as much literacy in a world where no one would believe in a God, because you can't compare this world with that hypothetical one, because it has never been there. We can only speculate about this. Like you say about the 1700's; Maybe if in an alternative universe there was no Bible there would have been another book that everyone needed to be able to read.

YOUR NIPPLES ARE GOING TO FALL OFF!!!
Hm, but like the Mad Hatter says it seems more women who make a problem out of it, than men. I never had a men saying nasty things about mine. Now, the girls on the other hand love to say they are small. Yes I know :rolleyes:, at least mine don't hurt when I run around in a bad bra. It's usually like that eh, women with small ones want bigger ones, women with big ones want smaller ones. .... I have the suspicion Baw8cc just started this thread because he wants the ladies to talk about (their) boobies on here :thinking:

Americans have just lost the right to a fair trial
:nod: Also, Parrotdies wasn't trying to make Saffire look bad. I don't see what was low in what Parrot posted :\ But I think this has come up several times before, eg. by Reilly. Saffire seems too fast to think that people are attacking/bullying him, when they are just giving another opinion on the matter. Replying with something like "This is low, even for you" with which implicitly is said that Parrot apparently usually goes low (I don't agree) and that parrot's post was some kind of 'attack' towards Saffire to make him look bad .... a bit paranoid, I would say.

So I re-installed Audicity again and it works fine for this purpose (taken into account that I am a remix n00b) I had the strong suspicion that the end of .,,. played backwards would be the same as the intro ... did it in Audicity and I was right! :D
