  • The most stupid argument I’ve seen is from an American who said “what if you don’t know about the effects of a drug that could save your life?”

    If only there was a system of interconnected knowledge bases where new information could be published and indexed for easy lookup… Nah what am I saying, who would have interest in such a thing…










  • You have to remember that the scripture is dictated from the top: the Pope to the bishops to the priests to the masses, or the equivalent in other sects/religions. Therefore it’s not so much about belief as it is about control: “trust my words only, disregard anything someone else says to contradict it.” And it’s repeated over and over with every sermon. Heck, the whole start of the Abrahamic religion is someone being told “kill your son, trust me bro it’s the right thing to do.”
