Neither do I. Belief systems are belief systems. I couldn't agree with you more on this. But it sure as heck ain't a religion! If a Hindu believes the number 13 is bad luck, his superstitious belief in the number 13 is not his religion. Hinduism is his religion.


He's right. Maybe it would be more apt to say evolution is a god, a mini god of sorts. the god or it's prophet sayith so it iseth.

heh.

The religion is probably actually something known as materialism. evolution a sub-god of it.

Would that possibly me he said he blocked so he can't read the post you think? that would be nice. Either me or Russ I guess. So I can actually express an opinion without reprise or accusation for once. gosh that sounds so nice. I hope he keeps his promise this time. I really do hate the thought police. So i can just interject here now and then and hey no skin peeling off his back while he screams. Sounds wonderful.

anyway... materialism is the religion, google it for an explanation. evolution a sub-god, like apollo is to zeus. except in this case man makes himself god, kind of like caesar, exactly like casear actually. human secularism essentially, as it so aptly name itself. Read the humanist manifesto. It was actually a religion (with churches even) up to a certain point and then they realized they couldn't get public funding or their curriculum into the schools if they continued to call themselves a religion and maintain visible churches. Politics and money as usual. Human secularism. Man is the god. evolution is his creation story. Materialism is his soul and spirit, the desire which drives him forward.
