Some form of mass delusion (i think is the term) Scenario: You believe in God: He exists You die = excellent You dont believe in God: He exists You die = Bummer You believe in God: He doesnt exist You die = Bummer You dont believe in God: He doesnt exists You die = Bummer Pretty simple really	Gobe1 (6290)

At the same time as teaching people potentially misleading information they behave more like followers of a cult where any other ideas are immediately rubbished, even when there is much evidence to prove their truth. Anyway, a few ideas to add to this conversation :) The trouble is there is no hard evidence to prove the truth of God. I will never forget the time the SDA came to our place. My father, I had only ever known to go to church for weddings, funerals and christenings. They walked in and quoted something out of the bible and off the top of his head he quoted something that contradicted their quote. Well they had to scour the bible to find it and were a little discomforted to find him right. He did it to them three times before they took off with their tail between their legs. It was interesting that he knew the bible better than those three that were pushing it.	mikebartnz (21)

1155397	2010-11-23 02:14:00	The Roman Catholic Church believes that the procreation of new life (children) is utterly sacred and any artificial barrier to conception is unnatural. Cynics say this theology is rooted in the Church's drive to increase its members.	Winston001 (3612)

The masses are unable to consider life without some assurance of something bigger. Which is easier, consider the science of the matter, or just believe and belong to a nice group that thinks the same?	Cicero (40)

I read a book (can't remember the title) about the Vatican once that paid special attention to the Vatican Treasury and it was a real eye opener especially the bit where they had invested in a condom factory. I have always thought of religion as a psychological crutch.	mikebartnz (21)
1155401	2010-11-23 08:13:00	Back to the original topic... I also reckon this new stance is one of self preservation. There are so many catholic priests rodgering other males that AIDS could become a concern for the church's own survival, so Benedict has essentially given up on asking his gay comrades to be abstinate, and he's giving them the green light to rodger away in the relative safety of a latex sheath. But as for the rest of the straight world, he doesn't care about the risks we may face - we have to take our chances... after all, someone has to breed more kids to become cardinals, priests and alterboys for their consumption.
