The only problem is that in reality you cannot see that yours is equally irrational.

You seem to think your shit don't stink but everybody elses does.

Way for everyone to miss the point.

I was watching two different fundementalists argue over religion. Both seemed ridiculous to me, but the premise was the same:

Fundie A: I know my belief system about God is the right one!

Fundie B: No, my belief system about God is the right one!

what i mean to say is we do different things, being different people
and you'll agree with somethings but not with others
so until we meet lets fray flagrantly with our beliefs
then we will meet and be too in love to disagree with each other
and if we rinse and repeat 1000 some times a day we'll be doing
a
ok

True enough except for one thing: they ALWAYS want to force their beliefs upon someone else. This has to do more with insecurity than anything else. Someone else believing differently is a perceived threat.

Generally, I would have to agree - just in my personal experiences....
I have not been around a ton of pushy people, but when around a relentless "religion pusher", it is pretty fuckin annoying....  :crankey:
The "You should do this, and you should do that" stuff is BULLSHIT....  :thumbdown:

This is not always a rule tho~, everyone is different in how they express their beliefs....
It could also have to do with immaturity and/or a heightened excitement of the topic - over an insecurity of being threatened....

i always thought my boss at the deli looked like a lion
she tried to get me fired for not smiling to customers
and i told her that I don't have many things to smile about
and that I don't like being fake

she liked that

That's not true. War is fought over more than religion. Religion just makes up for a very large portion of war.

The true cause of war (personal and mass) is craving. Appeasing a craving only makes us crave more (and more and more)... until a war arises for resources to continue satisfying our cravings.

Consider this: you see a starving dog traveling along and he comes to a butcher shop. If the butcher were to throw the dog a long chain bones, which had no meat or blood on them, do you think this would be beneficial for the dog? No. There is nothing of substance for the dog to absorb. It would merely waste all of its energy eating the chain of bones.

In this way, the starving dog can be seen as our cravings, and eating the bones as the way we appease the craving.

This thread is about all irrational belief systems, not merely religion. As wars generally do serious harm to all involved, it certainly is an irrational act.

$1 trillion and tens of thousands of lives to kill an aging dictator is the height of insanity.

Look at the harm the imperial actions of WWII Germany and Japan caused their own people. That is just moronic.

So Orgone, when the demand for oil is very great, and the supply is dwindling, what do you suggest governments do? Keep in mind our dependence of oil... blacktop, plastics, all forms of transportation (no more food in the super markets, no coal to burn, etc...), and I'm sure there are thousands of other things I'm leaving out.

All answers become irrational at this point. Irrationality can actually be seen as subjective and prone to argument.

Pretty simple.

You should be left with no choice but to believe.

Yes, I will s-p-e-l-l it out for you.

ALL irrational belief systems (i.e. ANY system not factually based) are by definition, irrational; whether they are yours, mine or anothers'.

All belief systems are irrational because anything is possible.

As soon as you believe,
you have restricted yourself.
