You have Global Warming as your religion and I have Christianity. Mine doesn't make sense to you and yours makes less sense to me.

A widely held understanding of a global climate phenomena backed by science, is kind of the opposite of a religion. Science adjusts it’s beliefs based on what’s observed. Faith (religion) is the denial of observation so that belief can be preserved.

Yeah, well, when you step up to be judged before your god I'm sure you will say, "hey god, I was so busy being righteous I didn't have time to think about the one thing you gave me to watch over and care for."If your god put you here to test you. Are you sure you haven't missed some part of that test? You don't destroy the house which you were given guardianship of...

Ohhh, Global Warming as a religion... let's bring back the sun god! At least THAT religion made sense. We're already sacrificing virgins (read: Iraqi civilians), why not?

It is as simple as this: Everything you think of, everything you have, other than pets or plants is man-made. We are nothing but animals like every other creature, but somehow developed the ability to make up all the unnecessary things we have and worry about today. Religion is made up, 100%. Think about it, Christianity is JUST as far-fetched as Islam or judaism or even mythology. The stories are outrageously over-exaggerated, and for the most part, simply impossible and or irrational. The point to this is, the good man who posted this humorous mockery of christianity is right to think its funny, it is. In this day in age with the technology and common knowlege we have, it's hard to believe that any religions other than atheism are still around. Humans are silly creatures.

There is a rather large difference between Christianity and Global Warming.Christianity has exactly 0 pieces of evidence to back up its claims, and in fact there is overwhelming amounts of data showing that Christianity, along with all world religions is 100% false.Global Warming on the other hand has a very very large volume of data that suggests it is true. No real scientist would say that Global Warming(via human cause) is absolutely truth, they would simply say that there is a 90% probability that it is caused by humans according to the most recent study by the International Panel on Climate Change; IPCC.Religion and Logic are like oil and water, they do not mix.If you are a person of "faith"(aka arrogant ignorance) you are certainly not logical.If you are a logical person, you do not have "faith"

I think you are being Ignorant of religion, nornerator. Belief of a deity may be true, or it may not be. I am, as my name suggests, a Neutral Believer. I don't know if God exists or not, but I'll find out after I die. Until then, I'll just wait. I go to church, even though I am not sure a God exists, because it is refreshing. My church at least, is completely modern. They have a rock band that plays Christian music, and the Pastor is realistic and fun to listen to, not dead boring. Our church has several thousand people that go to it, and we have "Party on the Patios" each month and things like that. You cannot say that people of religion don't take care of the Earth, or other people. Our church has many many missionaries around the world, helping out. We just made an orphanage in Africa for hundreds or even thousands of kids with no parents. We give money to charities, and help all others. Religion, whether fallacy or truth, is mainly about working together with others, and being friends. I hate to be partly judgemental, but you can tell the difference between a church-going believer, and an unbeliever. Church structures your life, teaches you what to believe and what not to believe, and it helps you be a better person. Christians carry their lives thinking that someone died for their sins 2 thousand years ago, and go through life trying to repay that debt. Most Christians help others, are willing to offer a helping hand, and are friendly, wanting to help out. Charles Darwin, inventor of the Theory of Evolution, even took in Christianity in the later years of his life. Before he died, he had become a church going Christian and true believer, and took back what he said because he believed that he was just misjudged when he stated his before facts. I am just saying that most Atheists say people with religion are Ignorant, but really THEY are being Ignorant, because they don't try and understand religion. I understand both sides, how could the big bang be true, if everything came from one particle, but where did that one particle come from? Or how could religion be true, an everlasting being that is all powerful? Doesn't the big bang seem more believable? I see both sides, and I am striding in the middle. Don't judge me for my beliefs, and I wont judge you for your beliefs. In the end, we are ALL only human, and it doesn't matter what we think, just how we act.

i pity Christians, there is none of the above, there is only truth, and untill you get your head out of you ass and start looking for it outside of your protective boxes and stop giving input to thoughs seeking it with knowledge of time and space, There are two ways to slide easily through life, to believe everything or to doubt everything, both ways save us from thinking. you claim to know the unknown as do many others, threw text and good feelings, i challenge you to find reason and meaning in every book of the bible, i could go on all day how i am smarter than your God, and if you wish to challenge that i dare you to reply with a reason how God informed corners of the worlds people in BC, or did they all have to burn in hell for knowing nothing, and how do you explain the sun being 22 sextillion years old-I know, what do scientists know, but let's humor them, OK?We can trace our iffy evolutionary tree back 20 million years. The c**kroach, by comparison, has a pedigree of 250 million years and will almost certainly survive us at the rate we're abusing our habitat. Is this any way to design a universe?Take my appendix -- please! The atavistic organ is totally useless, as its name connotes. It's an evolutionary time bomb waiting to rupture, probably in the middle of my next vacation. Or what's up with gallbladders, our superfluous repository of excess bile? It's as necessary as heated car seats and SUVs the size of three-bedroom apartments. And why do we have two kidneys but only one liver? Perhaps our alleged creator, Mr. ID, is so elusive for fear of divine litigation. So If human beings were automobiles, there'd be one hell of a massive recall. I don't need to go into particulars, do I? But enough about us. Let's move on to the virtually infinite universe, our Manifest Interplanetary Destiny. It's humongous and getting bigger every time we gaze skyward. Yet in all that unexplored, inaccessible space, scientists can't identify, with their exquisitely sophisticated telescopes, any planet near or far that is likely to support life forms comparable to us. Even if intelligent beings exist out there in the void thousands of light years away, it's unlikely we'll ever get to palaver with our cosmic cousins. Now I enjoy my personal space as much as the next person, but doesn't that lifeless expanse -- with its black holes, supernovas, nebulae, pulsars, and white dwarfs -- strike you as over the top? After infinite space, let's check the time. How long did it take God to "perfect" you and me, we darlings of the unfathomable ether? and a quote directed at you and many like you, believe those who are seeking the truth, doubt those who find it. i challenge you to reply, i hope you do, The greatest obstacle to discovery is not ignorance -- it is the illusion of knowledge. yet two things are infinite, the universe and human stupidity.. and I'm not sure about the universe.

You are so retarded it amazes me. Absolute lies about Charles Darwin becoming Christian and recanting his words.

Au Contraire. It's an interesting fact that all knowledge is illusion. To illustrate: it's perfectly possible that I'm actually being eaten alive and violently litigated against by a well-mannered minotaur. However, it's far more probable that I'm sitting at my computer attempting to defend rationality and my Cosmic Jewish Zombie. Descartes, Bonds investor and father of modern philosophy, pointed out that a faith in probabilities never amounts to a certainty, and his tenuous resolution of the doubting of Everything, Everywho, Everywhere, Everywhichway and Everythingpossiblyimaginable involved a very convenient God. Christians and people without Cosmic Zombie Masters both raise eyebrows at the handiness of such a God, and consequently stumble through the Universe making educated guesses about probablities. It's the worryingly mad proffessors who doubt everything, and the raving, "they-should-be-shot," extremists who believe everything. Neither you nor I fall into either catagory, so lets not have any sweeping insinuations about Christendom sliding easily through life on the back of blind faith. And Ignorance? Again, Au Contraire, my anti-tetragrammatical friend. Ignorance seems to be the major perpetrator of most objections to a deity, providing quite a large obstacle to fair-minded investigation. Your atavistic organ belongs to a class of "evolutionarily redundant" body parts which, by virtue of being discredited time and time again, in fact connotes the utter desperation of the evolutionary community to back up Darwin's, admittedly, ingenious theory, which now finds itself disappointingly out of date. What about the children born with "tails," "throwbacks" to an earlier stage of evolution? No. Sorry. Those were just fatty tumours... little bit of a misdiagnosis there. And then there's the evolutionary theory itself. Darwin liked the idea of Pangenesis introducing more genes into the gene pool. Unfortunately, that was scientifically disproven shortly afterwards. Mutation then reared it's head... but recently leading evolutionists have admitted its inadequacy and floundered around with "little monsters" and "spasmodic jumps", defying all probability. Speciation seems dubious at best. Atheists are as guilty of fiddling around with probablilities and "faith" as the next educated Zombie-follower.As if scientific ignorance didn't prove enough of an obstacle, there's ignorance as to the nature and complexity of Christianity as well. Many people wonder about the poor plebs wandering around prior to the Zombie-king, who have apparently been damned for not being born a few centuries later. I expect athiests, and most Christians too, could probably do with a lesson in Judaic Theology. Everyone, after death, seems to get lumped together in a place called "Sheol," where they wait for judgement. Theoretically, when our miraculous outcast from "Shaun of the Dead" died, he visited Sheol and kindly offered the souls there an alternative to everlasting spit-turning. Bertrand Russell was a genius. If you want a champion of Atheism, he's your man. Thoroughy convinced of the non-existence of a deity, part of his greatness was his fair-mindedness. So far as probablities go, he said, it was more probable that the universe plopped into existence two seconds ago, fully formed, than that it developed over sextillions of years, because Newton's laws clearly state that energy dissapates - entropy increases. Or, for the layman, stuff doesn't get complex, it gets simple. Quite straightfoward really. So, from the mouth of a very clever non-religious person, there is evidence that taking Genesis literally could be the rational thing to do. I'm not saying it is. I'm simply pointing out the sensibleness of appreciating both sides of the argument. Reason in the Bible? No-no to murder seems fairly reasonable to me. I've never really found the prospect of extinction that enticing. And as for meaning... the Bible's fully of it. In every book, even if it's "thou shalt be obliterated by fireballs and floods if thou doest ignore me." Even if they have no meaning to you and me now, they had considerable meaning to those it was warning. you may not agree with the meaning, but that makes it no less meaningful. Have a look at Ecclesiastes. Solomon gives an awesome lecture on the value of reason and the ultimate ambiguity of life. Hardly your typical Absolutist, irrational religious believer. My final point: A tendency to go over the top and produce a Picasso when asked for a Tracey Emin, or indeed an expansive, artistic universe when asked for a moderately-sized planet, has never, to my mind, indicated anything more than eccentricity. Certainly not badness or ineptitude.

By the Pendulous Balls of the Prophet!! Wake the Funk up 'nornerator' you Bovinian Sheep crossbreed, 'Global Warming' & Al Gore are two of the biggest frauds in history.

The Bible also suggests stoning homosexuals to death.Anyone who understand the Second Law of Thermodynamics knows that complexity can arise in a closed system when there is an external energy supply (the sun). The universe as a whole will continue to decrease in complexity, however, until thermal death.I think we can pretty much figure out "no-no" to murder (and to things like rape, child abuse which are not in the commandments by the way) through rational thinking and empathy and without the bible. Evolution is a fact. No animals (including us) were "created" instantly. All evolved from simpler lifeforms into complex ones.Finally, the Christian god does not offer an "explanation" to the existence of the universe, because then what created that god? Most Christians at this point say "Well god always existed and requires no further explanation. We would not be able to comprehend it anyhow." Okay, then why can't we just skip a step (for which there is no evidence) and say that the universe has always existed, and that we cannot yet comprehend the nature of its origin?
