Since I am not going through the traditional route of a college education, I must rely on the Internet to obtain it.

Then you must be very very careful. There is an inordinate amount of bullshit on the web. I seriously would not just fish around for what you can find. The biggest problem you will have is your confirmation bias: this alone makes informal self study difficult.

Surely formal education is better than googling things?

I believe if or when most people finally accept it and abandon their religious beliefs it will produce chaos and rebellion towards government and its laws that control them.

I think you will find that high religiousity in a society means high crime. Just look at the US.

Ummm.... why?

Because there is no reason to behave in a decent way towards others unless one is a xian.

I was shocked to discover it, too; but there you go.

Re: Vessels of Survival

As you are now a xian GET AWAY FROM THOSE KIDS!.

Seriously, I never knew atheist were xians, as well.

It seems that on mature reflection the last thing any one would want to be is a xian (pointy white hats, bad touch, holocaust, sectarian violence in N Ireland and the UK, bombing abortion clinics, spreading of AIDs through 'no contraception', and a whole host of bastardry in the past).

Glad I'm agnostic!

Re: Vessels of Survival

God and government are not separate entities even though they pretend that they are.

Don't be so fucking stupid.
