Hello Larni,

Why not so for beleiveing that when we die we will ascend to heaven of descend to hell?
I think the obvious answer is, and I am sure you know this; the latter is deeply intrenched in our past culture and traditions. The former if given enough time and multitudes of followers, say a few thousand years may give rise to a new order of toilet fairy zealots.

So, religion deserves this free pass and it's quite alright to openly mock atheists???
I am surprised that such a notion even comes up. It is so patently obvious that religion has been one of the rudimentary elements in many countries.
Back in the day,
If someone was a atheist and wanted to advance in business or politics they kept their pie hole shut and played ball.
Just as the hypocrits sitting in mass where coming out of confession after having committed every grave sin possible.
You dont rock the boat and you play ball.
Is it right? Of course not.
Are we all suddenly so naive to think things are not fair? Well
they are not fair. There is in this country a stigma associated with religion, either for or against, it is a fact of life. I know hospitals that are run by Seven day Adv__. that if one wants to be promoted it is funny how only members of the church are given the nod. Is it fair? Legal? Shit man we all know the answers.
Edited by 1.61803, : No reason given.
