Oct 3 2012: when banks lend money they increase the money that is circulating, its called the scondary emission of money...
I am sorry my english isnt that good...
Oct 3 2012: Fail motivates me, the more i fail the more motivated i get.
When i succede, i figure it out that i got the maximum and then i dont have the need for fighting more.
Sep 28 2012: I will first answer the Sexist thing
The prophet Mohammed a.s. (I'am a muslim so i follow him) was born in Mecca where were atheist, polytheist people and some people that belived in one God, followers of Abraham. I will tell you how woman status where before and after Islam in this city. They where missused, no woman had right for inheritage, by the arabic tradition female child where burried when they wher born, alive...
when Islam came, first, bury of female child was forbidden, woman had right for inheritage etc..
. Man and woman are equal in front of God. He said that not me. About that hiding faces and that.... It is their FREE will to choose to wear that cover. For an example my sister wanted to go to madressa (islamic high school) insted of gymnasium (i went to gymnasium). When you want to go to madressa, female, have to put the cover over theiir head (not face), until they study there. At the same year my mother choosed to put the cover too, at her 40ies (i guess). My mother is not sitting at home locked.. She is a director of an IT company. That cover, and listening to their husband is and order from God. If they dont want to do that it is theri problem. He ordered us not to lie too but i lie somethimes too and that is my sin. The point is that you got it totally wrong about sex equality in religion. I could talk about this for long time.
About that in front of father killing... never heard for that, thats wrong..
There was punishment for adultery 80 hits with a whipe (if i am correct about that number).
About violence...
Kill someone working on sabbath?? Untrue... God gave us some Land ??? untrue, Forcing someone to religion is fordbidden. As you can see I'am from Bosnia, here you have three religions in one place. And this is a muslim country. Everyone have their right.
Sep 28 2012: I agree with Linda e-books are much cheaper and easier way.
I still do think that e-books should be used for shorther books. Reading a book 3-6h a day at a laptop hurts my eyes really.
Math and books like this should be on e-books, but lets say Law books where you have to read about 1500 pages is better on paper :P
Sep 27 2012: I am still confused about what do you think what are the good and bad effects of religion.
What is the atheist way of live / what do you think is the religion way of life
If you have time please answer me this.
I am not trying to presuade you to something, i am just curious how do atheist think about faith, the life that religious people live.
In my life i have only met couple atheists and i never talked to them about this theme.
Sep 27 2012: I see...
Anti gay yes thats true, but just think about it is it natural to be gay?
Support religion within limits is probable regarding to "help people as much as you are able to". That means to take for yourself all what you need and then give the other people that need help the surplus.
I dont understand some parts:
Sexist---> like sex discrimination?
violent
tribalist--> probably means loyal to religion
So please explain what did you mean, and give me an example if you can
Sep 27 2012: By reading these comments bellow i have to ask Roy and Barry what do they think what are positive and negative things in a religion for them. If anyone else would like to join and say some positive or negative things welcome.
Sep 27 2012: I read most of the comments bellow and figured out that you talk nonsens about religion.
Something like: forced people to religion, or religion have bad values..
I'am a muslim and here forcing someone to religion is forbidden. I come from Bosnia & Herzegovina, here you have a Mosque 100m from her is a Church and 100m to the other way is a Sinagoge... and this is a muslim country... they always had they freedom to express any religion. For atheists they cant force them they only can convince them.
Are theses religion values bad:
- Say the truth, even if its bad for you
- Give charity,
- Love your neighbour like yourself
- dont neglect the poor
- help people as much as you are able to
- Give everyone his freedom and etc.

Playing games is just a way to relax, like Tv.
