How does it compare to the old Dooms? Action packed? I wasn’t a big fan of Doom 3.

That’s awesome. I might pick this up just for that (I’m a screenshot-takin’ junkie).

Instituting state atheism, banning religions, and then killing those who violate that policy is not a correlation. A leads to B leads to C. And you speak of science when you accuse me of being Christian for not having the Sam viewpoint as you.not only is that wrong, but it is also narrow minded.

Stay classy. :)

And next time you’re in a discussion with your intellectual superiors: “no” isn’t a compelling counter-point.

You pin the blame for World War 2 on Christianity. The Nazis didn’t invade Poland because the Poles were Catholic. They didn’t launch the invasion of the USSR because of Soviet policies to religion. They didn’t invade Yugoslavia because they were opposed to Orthodoxy. And the Nazis certainly didn’t initiate World War…

Most of the opponents of the Nazis were Christian as well. And...?

“So, the 55 million killed in WW2 alone is more then what you already quoted”

It is thin to blame the Nazi-directed Holocaust of Jews on religion; remember the Holocaust also swept up millions of victims (Roma, Slavs, etc.) who were Christian. Even so, Holocaust victims represent a minority of World War 2 victims. And…

A GIF makes a wonderful counterargument.

When did I argue that the root cause of the Civil War was not slavery? Was the North not majority Christian? Were the abolitionists atheists or agnostic?

“A slavery that was codified and supported by the bible?”

You can find plenty of passages in the Bible that do not support slavery.

“I’m all done with you though. I have way more fun things to do that continue this absolutely idiotic debate, as none of your points counter the fact that millions have died because of and in the name of religion - which was the original question.”

I haven’t argued otherwise, though you seem to think I believe…

“Yes, I think THOUSANDS of years of religious practice are unnatural.”

Ritual burial dates is at least 60,000 years ago. I find it hard to say practices of pre-historic man are ‘unnatural,’ unless considering fire & tool use unnatural as well.

“Religion is a pox on this world, Christianity in particular. If you can’t see that, then there is no point in continuing the conversation. ”

So if someone doesn’t agree with you, then there’s no point in discussion? Do you merely want to talk to people who parrot your beliefs?

Excellent counter argument. I commend you on pointing out the points I was wrong on. You have obviously shown the breadth of your knowledge of history, which I am humbled before.

If a government banned all religions but Christianity & then began executing non-Christian leaders & adherents, you’d claim that wasn’t an atrocity committed in the name of Christianity?

The Khmer Rouge instituted state atheism, banned all religions, and executed Buddhist, Muslim, and Christian leaders & adherents.…

I’m not denying that Christianity has driven major conflicts in the world. All? Most? No. The scope is often exaggerated & blame is assigned where it isn’t warranted. The same can also be said about Islam.

About justification for war, there are also branches of Christianity that practice pacifism, such as the Quakers,…

Oh? So we’re all responsible for what, the genocides that ISIS is committing?

“Atheism is simply lacking ANY belief in god which is your NATURAL state.”

That’s not a scientific claim, unless you think thousands of years of religious practices are entirely unnatural. And whether or not atheism is a natural state or not does not negate that it is a belief system.

Science cannot prove there is no…

Please provide the quote where I blamed atheism for Soviet atrocities.

“Although the church was initially supported by the regime, the Nazis eventually lost interest in the experiment after it failed to supplant or absorb traditional Protestant churches. After 1937, relations between the Reich Church and the Nazi government began to sour.”

Would you like to blame Nazi atrocities for a…

I’m beginning to suspect you aren’t nearly as bright as you think you are. :(
