Default The dangerous side of faith

This web link shows very clearly the dangerous side of faith.

I had conflicting opinions about whether to post it or not, because I am sure that they will sucker some people in their dangerous views. Be warned, science and religion, or faith, at least, do not mix.

PS This could have had a subject of "The pop side of faith and entrepreneurship"

Wow. A really thought provoking thread here instead of just the usual addition to the never ending stream of trite attacks on religion, and the common strawman tactic of painting the most extreme/nutty religious position found as the mainstream religious belief. Thanks for sharing.

The only thing more trite then the attacks on religion is the rebuttals by the religious.

Listen to the fantastic song he wrote to tell families 10 things they can do to have good health.

"Please don't eat the white bread... the good nutrition is gone"

Song on this page

hashi,

There is nothing wrong with criticising/questioning religious beliefs. But this is just a typical low content post by Midge, among many in his anti-religious crusade. Furthermore, he shouldn't even be allowed to post such a link without giving a synopsis and his views on same, and how that offers a different perspective than the ones we see here every day, instead of just being repetitive (where the repetition is by class, and not specific example). All he is doing is trolling.

This is wrong. At the beggining of history religion and science were together, until today science still requires some faith.
