Quote by marfish14Why is it
moraly wrong? What is a moral? What is wrong? The reason your not getting an answer to any of these questions is because
these words are man made and dont really mean anything. they having meaning to humans but they do not truly describe
anything.
Now your being stupid(no offense).Your questioning things that at first arent relevant to
the discussion and also on top of that the questions asked is like saying "Where did the word "what" come
from?"

Quote by DarkRoseofHellEveryone, get back on topic... and kingray
that's what the "bible" says... how can we know what's a sin when we already question what is moral
and inmoral...
actually i didnt get that off the bible.I got it from my personal opinion on what sin
was.(some people agree with me on this)moral and inmoral is like asking whats bad and good.killing is bad,its a
sin,helping other people with problems that need to be fixed is good,its not a sin.Morals can be a general topic or
something where people like to question tiny holes in the concept.

Quote by kingray100then again polls are never completely accurate.for an
atheist group to do something with the polls isnt impossible.I mean,whats to stop an atheist from pretending hes a
christian and signing in at a poll?Also,im a christian and i know lots about the cell theory and scientific method.I
know lots of christians who do research and still believe in God.Making christians seem uneducated is nothing short of a
fool.
Too true, polls are not completely accurate. But to say that atheists go out and mess with the results is a little
far-fetched. Itâ?s not impossible but it's also not impossible that a teacup is orbiting Pluto right now.
Also I was making a generalization. I said that I was if you didnâ?t see earlier. I know that not all religious persons
are ignorant and not all atheists are smart.
I just find it curious that the correlation is that the more educated you are the less religious you tend to be. I find
it curious that out of 34 major industrialized countries the US ranks 33rd on acceptance of evolution (about 40%).

Stranger still 28% of Americans still believe humans and dinosaurs lived at the same time.
Iâ?m not saying that religion causes ignorance. I'm just noting the correlation.
I also want to note that 72% of the members of the National Academy of Science are atheists compared to the 7% who
believe in a personal god. Supposedly according to Wikipedia "Election to membership [to NAS] is one of the highest
honors that can be accorded to a scientist and recognizes scientists who have made distinguished and continuing
achievements in original research. There are more than 170 members who have won a Nobel Prize."
I finally want to add that I never mentioned the word "Christians" in my last post. You kind of assumed I was
talking about you when I was talking about the religious in general.
well first,the only religion in discussion as of now is Christianity.Second,most likely there arent
many religious scientists since their religion is more important to them.Im guessing that if a person truly believes
their religion is important,most likely they are going to either become a religious teacher or prefer to do something
that doesnt try to disprove their religion.Understand?I see where you were coming at but it wasnt the complete story.
