lmao I toked with some super religious dude yesterday who tried convincing me Odd Future were influenced by the devil and were trying to spread the evil word.
Like, what lol
I can't have debates with most religious people about philosophy usually.
They get pissed when my answer is "That's literally the most retarded and unprovable thing I ever heard."
Think I can put whiskey stones in my bong's icecatcher for the same effect?

being unprovable doesn't mean it's retarded

Yea, but I think most of us can agree, religion is ridiculous. I mean c'mon, it's 2013, let's show a little progression.
[QUOTE=TCB;41963185]being unprovable doesn't mean it's retarded[/QUOTE]
I didn't say it was retarded because it was unprovable.
I just said it was both retarded AND unprovable.

religion isn't ridiculous, certain types of followers are ridiculous.

Why isn't religion ridiculous? Elaborate.
Actually wait, this is going to be a bad discussion.
saying "but you can't prove god!!" is as bad as saying "follow god or you will die forever!!", don't call someone retarded because they're religious, that isn't a "debate" that's just stupid

I don't feel the need to explain my side, I just asked why you thought it wasn't ridiculous.

because you don't know. we're not 100% certain if god is real or not and right now there's no way to find out. let people believe in it, let people disbelieve in it, but don't try to offend someone because of that (eg "you're retarded because god is not proven")

I find it quite ridiculous. I find atheism ridiculous as well.
It's just a large group of people telling the world they know something exists that they clearly don't, because there's never been any proof in the existence or non-existence in a God.
Though, there is a difference between religion and theism. I'm highly against all theists and atheists, agnosticism is the only thing I accept as intelligent in that regard. There is no person on this planet with magical mind powers, so there is no way anybody can know for sure if God exists or not. Claiming or pretending he does or doesn't does nothing but cause problems for the rest of the world, as seen by the hundreds of religious genocides that have happened and still go on today.
Religion itself is mainly just life philosophy, which in that regard, I simply have to pick favorites. There are philosophies that are less built out of bullshit than others. Buddhists are like, 9 times out of 10 less full of shit than Christians.

i don't think you should ask yourself "what would jesus do" before doing anything, but you should at least appreciate the things in this world that make you think "well maybe there is a god because how did science do [I]that[/I]"

it's hard to explain

I'm sorry Jesus.
I didn't mean it I swear.
Please don't leave me.

Well yea, I don't think someone's retarded for believing in a religion. And I'm not an atheist, I don't belong to a group, and though I don't believe there is a god in the sense that religion regards one, And that "god" or whatever you need to keep yourself from being afraid of death is up to that of the individual. I also don't believe in life after death, and that what we do while alive is the most important, and that trying to please something that doesn't actually give you anything back you couldn't easily replace with another ideology to give you peace of mind for some possible afterlife retribution seems like a waste of time. This is my opinion, I'm not pushing it on anyone, I'm just responding to you telling me I don't know, and you're right, but in a sense, that logic of "you don't know" Is a bit mute of a point, considering with the same logic you could say we don't know anything about anything but we can hypothesize, and theorize based on observations and experiences, and my life experiences have led me to this belief. I am of the scientific group as far as how I think, but I'm open to believing that although things can be explained by science, science is just a word explaining how we explain things basically, and that unexplained things, though explainable through science, can just as easily be explained through other types of thought as well, so long as they're sound in their application.
imo If you want to believe in something more powerful go ahead, don't give up your free will and hard earned cash to some organized religion.
[I]That's[/I] retarded.
If you wanna worship, worship on your own.
[quote]you could say we don't know anything about anything [/quote]
that's the best part. we think we know all about science, we look at romans way back then and think "wow how did they get things so wrong [I]what is this four humours shit[/I] god they were so stupid compared to us science geniuses". but back then, the romans thought [I]the exact same things[/I], they thought they were incredibly advanced and knew pretty much everything about everything. i like to believe that we've hardly unlocked the secrets of nature and science and that there's more to come, whether it be proof of a god or afterlife or just an island covered in weird creatures, it's nice to think that there is [I]more [/I]out there

or am i talking bs
I told my cat I'm going to extract her brain. She responded by flicking her tail at me.
the guy literally said Jay Z was part of the illuminati spreading the devils word like Odd Future
I couldn't stop laughing
[QUOTE=thejjokerr;41963668]Don't you think it would be better if it was the other way around? If people feel comfortable having an example to live their life by then sure, if it makes them a better person I'm okay with that. But saying unexplained things might be the reason for god to exist is just un-creative and a too simple answer.[/QUOTE]I'm happy with people being happy as long as they don't directly interfere with other peoples' happiness.
Which religion does daily.
