First of all WHO said a person cannot be harmed by religion ? ? ?
Oh, you mean YOU said it and tried to put it into the mouths of a lot of other people ?
"You can't be harmed by religion ? look at this !"
Lame.
Anyway, from Genesis when Cain killed Abel we see that people can be harmed because of religion.
Next STRAWMAN argument sonhouse ? Hope its easy to knock down.

Strong language doesn't make your case more persuasive.

what the fuk has he done? other than be so insane as to have another insane person post his views on facebook, thus giving him free publicity.
you don't mention the inquisitions, the crusades, the islamist fundamentalists. even the fuktards at westboro baptist church have done more harm than this retard. yet this is your example.
like someone else has mentioned, it seems to me your debating skills level is dangerously equal to rjhind's.

No, religion itself can never be bad, even when the leaders drive people to kill.
You just don't seem to understand the power such asssholes have by spreading their hatred and gathering the forces to foist their views on a legal system here in the US.
You are extremely naive about how such things happen in the US.
You just poo poo the fact that 43% or thereabouts of US citizens truly think the Earth is 6000 years old. Just think about that. The US is a troubled democracy and there are really evil people who would spread their hate doctrine through the system if they can. It causes trouble on a local level, state level and sometimes even federal level.
You seem to have no clue as to how those purveyors of power work in the US.

what are you going to do? pay attention to the hobo under the bridge who shouts that the government puts tiny robots into our brains to control us?
do you realize you sound more and more like rjhinds? just because your views are opposite to his doesn't make the manner in which you argue correct.
you take the worst example you can find from a group of people and you can display any organisation as evil and dangerous. i am not using some nutcase who blew up a whale boat full of human beings to display how evil Greenpeace is. no decent, rational person could.

Originally posted by sonhouseWhy do you keep calling it a Ponzi scheme? I looked it up, and while I think there certainly is financial fraud in some religious organizations, I don't think your choice of term is accurate.

Cain did not kill Abel because of religion.
Cain killed Abel because he was frustrated that Abel's offering pleased God more than his own. In other words, he was jealous.
Most deaths that people love to attribute to religion or to God were caused by evil men. Period. We have free will for a reason. It is to choose wisely and to accept what has been offered to us by the Grace of our Lord.
Some people just choose... poorly... is all.

That is another stupidism about what a god would be like. They just took Olympian god attributes and tacked them on to what the Abrahamic god had to be like.
There is no other way to interpret this, a frigging GOD would not have these petty human attributes.
Humans who crave vassals might demand sacrifice or as we put it now, taxes.
A god demanding that kind of sacrifice would be more like humans having an ant colony and demanding they give up a certain number of the colony eggs to make the human feel loved.
That is just plain nonsense.

"And God said, Let us make man in our image, after our likeness: and let them have dominion over the fish of the sea, and over the fowl of the air, and over the cattle, and over all the earth, and over every creeping thing that creepeth upon the earth." -- Genesis 1:26, KJV
Man was made in God's image, not the other way 'round, as you seem to imply. And you don't have any further to look than the first chapter of the Bible. I think it would be surprising if God did NOT have some human attributes (since it's really Man having God's attributes).

Originally posted by SuzianneGee, I guess it is just a coincidence that those verses were written by, oh, let me guess. AH YES. Men. Hmmm. So why don't you prove those verses were also inspired directly by a god? I am saying they were 100% made up by men to start a religion and it wasn't even new mythology they based it on but older Egyptian ones. So prove it otherwise.
