Silkroad Online Forums

It's so ridiculous how people are trying to argue against this.

Is it just me or does anyone else get a kinda elitist vibe coming from these threads...

I'm a man that believes in God as well as science, there is no "vs" in there. I don't get why so much time is spent arguing the two, there is more to life than science.

Also, WTF at the guy who said religion was the cause of all the bad things that people do... You really need to step out of this echo chamber if you actually believe that.

Well,some people who use religion as an excuse to do crazy things..
and Seriously, religion has caused many conflicts and violence.

... but you could take religion out of the equation and there would still be the same conflicts and violence, its not religion, its human nature.

i believe in zeus

AT first i read threads like these, but when i see at like 3 pages of posts like that, i quit.

Define evidence? Something written in a book or hear from teachers, Youtube?

Something that can be reproduced to produce a visible and recordable result each time on what we expect something to do. If the tests repeats itself it is respected as evidence and fact of something working in a certain order. Have you ever gone to school?

so you can reproduce evolution..? put a mouse in a lab and wait for it too evolve?

Well you're giving this forum undeniable evidence that you're uneducated. Evolution is studied over a long period of time, and changes in species are carried over from generation to generation via natural selection. The bad traits are left out while the good ones are passed on to the next. This does not necessarily mean that it happens in a short period of time.

It would take thousands/tens of thousands of years for there to be a drastic change from the characteristics of one animal to another. Going by how sedimentary rocks and fossils are found deep underground and measuring how old the earth's crust is scientists can determine how old those organisms are, this is only one of the many methods that the theory of evolution employs to better understand how today's animals are formed.

Simply saying put a mouse in a lab and wait for it to evolve is quite simply the most retarded statement I have ever heard, but then again my standards for religious people are set pretty low after participating in one these kind of threads.

However, saying it's solely human nature is quite simply a speculation. With no proof, one must assume that religion causes the problems, because that is the floating justification. With no other evidence first, one must look to the point that religion causes the fights, when people say, it's for x religion (bombing abortion clinics, middle east etc.).
Also, that wasn't my main argument. My main argument is that religion slows the progression of society by pretty much slowing scientific progression, and making so many people deny 'true' science, like evolution etc.

Closed report on Trolling.

To everyone: If you don't want to get trolled, stop feeding the trolls.

Ya'll should just stop lol
best thing to do while bored
create a religion vs atheist thread in SRF, and laugh at all the fish bite


Do you have proof that you're human?

I agree with Seji cupcakes are awesome

This debate is gonna last forever, like i said believe what you want and if it means that much to you stand up for your beliefs but not on a srf forum that goes form 5 pages to almost 7 in 12 hours

Do you have proof that I'm not?

You know that flu you get sick with every year, that is a mutation or evolution of the Flu virus, the H1N1 another mutation of the Flu virus, you don't even know how evolution or Natural Selection works, and until you do every post of your just makes your case worse.

Yeah, when the flu changes (mutates) it's because the vaccine affects a certain strand. Certain flu particles or w/e you want me to call them don't have that strand. They reproduce. The flu is then largely composed of that strand the next year, because the vaccine didn't kill it.
Bacteria. Certain cleaners don't kill certain bacteria. The bacteria that aren't killed reproduce, they reproduce only the bacteria that doesn't get killed by the certain cleaners. That's a mutation. That's evolution to a minor degree. Imagine that over thousands of years. Also, bacteria/viruses etc. evolve fast b/c they reproduce very quickly.

If you can type without looking at the screen at all.
Then you're not fully human.. lulz

Wow your a genius. This is me

/last time I'll feed the troll.

Why should i have to prove you're un-humaness? You should prove that you are a human

hypocrisy at its best

Really? Your gonna trow that BS at me?

Because your the one who insisted I wasn't human, trolling at it's best.

Want to know proof for god's sake.
2 Arms. 2 Legs. Skin. Normal bodily functions. Functioning brain (you should get that checked out). And don't throw that amputee bla bla bla, you know what I am getting at. He upholds the 7 functions of life, he's alive, and he goes through normal human functions, he's a human. -_-
By dictionary definition at least, he's human. GTFO dude you are making your side look even dumber (if that was possible).

Try talking out of your mouth next time... this stuff coming out of your ass is starting to stink.

Next you're going to tell me every school shooting or every convenience store ever robbed was because of some religion. You can't even tell me every war was about religion, and it isn't religion that causes one to start a war. It's human nature, we all have innate characteristics such as greed/anger/hatred/envy/vengeance and so on... Giving the scriptures may be a guide for some, but it isn't why they act such things out.

In a few cases recently religion has had an effect on science and that was stem cell research. Other than that... the human factor is what is causing the problems in science... scientist are lying and cheating to get their stuff published and what not. Also governments have affected science, giving out grants and rewards to people who research popular theory.

This is where you address my argument.
LOLOLOL SCIENTISTS LYING TO GET STUFF PUBLISHED. How bout the bible, that was kinda sorta a big lie?
Last sentence, no idea where that came from.
How bout the middle east, bombing abortion clinics, homophobia, etc.?
Of course some wars come out of something other than religion, but you preach religion has nothing to do with it.

You just said that evidence are what you can reproduce. Therefore, I use your logic, if you can't reproduce the evolution from ape to human, then gtfo, ok?
Like you said, it has to be a "visible" thing. I didn't see any direct visible evolution here beside a study of gene.
A painter may paint a paint A and a paint B. A and B may share the same similitude, because it's drawn by the same person and use the same style. You can't say that A evolve from B. But you can say that A and B are created by the same person/designer ie God


Flu is one thing. You can't generalize one species to all species on the planet. I can say 90% of people in SRF bot, it doesn't mean that you are a bot. A theory or a statement doesn't valid even if got an example of flu virus that works, didn't you know that?
As said, if you got a visible video/image of an ape evolve into human, then we'll continue to talk. Either proving evolution of 100% of the species or gtfo. I don't fucking care about 99% or flu virus.


That's only the basic you can look outside. If I were to remove your bones, your organs inside, I wouldn't consider you a human. More like a monster. Beside you didn't see with your eyes your stomach. How do you know you have one, or you "heard" someone else say you have one?



If you are to blame the origin of war, let me get this straight. Blame the one who invented knifes, guns, grenades, abortion technology. Without them, there won't be any war, right?

I am an alien from Mars. According to some of you guys, I don't have to prove it! Bow to me earthlings.

It doesn't take religion for someone to be against abortion... There are some people that just believe you shouldn't take the life of an unborn baby. As far as I know there have only been around 9 or so people killed in these bombings since people have been doing abortions in the US, so you're talking it up. Anyways, look at Ted Kaczynski, he wasn't religious or at least he didn't have a religion driving his agenda.

"homophobia" You act like it's religion that causes this... I'm sorry but that's just men being men. Most guys don't want a D*** in their A**. Our whole existence is based on heterosexuality, and I'm sorry if I don't like men acting like women or worse... Most men can't stand the way women act, but they'll put up with it cause they love them, why would they put up with that same behavior from another man?

How's the bible one big lie? You do know there is proof that Jesus Christ and others did exist. It's also funny you'd say that. I'd bet you'd be a Nostradamus(someone that did exist) fan. He had vague prophecies that you could say came "true"... Then there are the prophecies the bible speaks of which aren't vague at all and all of them so far have come true, and still some to come. Now if the bible was a big lie, it's a pretty damn good one.

The middle east is an easy one. Land. Throw in those basic human characteristics and there you have it.

"Of course some wars come out of something other than religion, but you preach religion has nothing to do with it."
I don't even know what you're saying here.

I addressed both your argument with that last post.



So MrJoey doesn't feel left out, tell us something we don't know =) Don't think I haven't forgot you on TheEMPIRE vent rant'n and rave'n =P

k so?

+1 Towards Fiction

For the many people saying religion is idiotic or gives false hope. False hope is something everyone goes through idc who you are. Religion is a comfort for more people than it is something to follow. When someone in your family dies who you love, who brings science into the equation saying oh well their gonna be decomposed by worms and several microorganisms and since we're living in say africa their grave might be robbed. Errmm ya i doubt thatll happen. Most people say "they're in a better place" because one its comforting and two some people believe that.

Religion is something that gets people through the hard times, not saying its something to be relied on. It helps people through hardships and even when a person has nothing and has hit absolutly rock bottom, their religion is still there and can still comfort them and atleast give them a second of relief even if its false hope.

I'm going to ignore the idiocy of the rest of this post so I can focus on this part. I like this part.

So because someone wasn't there to see a guy murder his family, he didn't do it? The forensic evidence is just evidence because no one was there to 100% confirm it? Your brain isn't there because you haven't seen it?
That's the point you're trying to make.

You realize how dumb that sounds?

Damn me for feeding the troll.
