Thread: Religion is Old

...And I demonstrated by giving examples of other natural things that are less severe and less related to voluntary thought and showed how they can be held back and all you said was "Well not every country is like that, so you are wrong".

You gave one example, for violence. Which is invalid as I explained. The others were speculation

And it is invalid how? Because not everyone tries to get rid of it?

Technically, everything said here is speculation save for violence-- Because none have been attempted before.

No because its such a limited sample.

I don't understand your second point. Could you clarify?

Not really....

And I mean no one has extensively tried to "remove" religion, theolgoy, etc. or "fix" racism. So you cannot say you know that it will roll back to theology.

In fact, with the way history flows:

- No theology
- Polytheism
- Monotheism
- Atheism
- No theology

So again, that argument *Seems* to be invalid. But that's just a guess based on progression.

Yeah but your little progression implicitly assumes a cyclicality in time, particularly relating to the intelligence of humans.

For example your chain starts with "no theology" perhaps because humans, at this time, weren't intelectually advanced enough to accomodate such things. Percievably, we are not going to regress to this level but progress.

If you then agree that there is no cyclicality, then it becomes very difficult to predict the next stage.

Although I will acknowledge, that science is forseeably the prominent force for the future.

So then what are you yelling at me for?

Yelling?

Amazing what a one word post can turn into in R&S

Arguing.

No, we turned your rubbish thread into something useful, exobyte

Seismosaur, we'll just call it a draw.
