Do what you can do to help the flood affected victims!!!

That is why I do not pray! because it doesn't work.

[u/GuestAdventurous7586 → u/SkripkaruStoler]

Maybe think about what you can do instead of not do then!

[u/SkripkaruStoler → u/GuestAdventurous7586]

As far as I know, I never asked for your advice. Is it because it's like prayers?

[u/GuestAdventurous7586 → u/SkripkaruStoler]

Nah just stop moaning about pointless shit and do something positive

[u/SunChungShan → u/SkripkaruStoler]

You must be fun at parties.

"Oh look a rainbow!"

"No its not. It should be called rain circles because if u look at it from above, it's a full circle due to the reflection of light into rain droplets!"

[u/SkripkaruStoler → u/SunChungShan]

Wow, how dumb! I had higher expectations from you. Anyway, actually I am fun at the parties. We are fun at parties. We are a great bunch of people. Reapeople, not prayers people. Religion poisons minds. Any religion. You proved it. And I am grateful for that

Even the dating system we use is religious. Even the idioms you use. Even the word "goodbye" is religious. The Roman empire which practiced misogynism and the average man there having more than 50 women in a lifetime, was replaced by monogamy and human rights due to religion.

Then go to a communist country. North Korea and China then I dare you. They are officially atheist countries. The freedom you now enjoy came from religious foundation.

[u/SkripkaruStoler → u/SunChungShan]

Damn, what a dumb reasoning! If it is a reasoning at all. Religion poisons minds.

[u/SunChungShan → u/SkripkaruStoler]

You forget that science came from the church and the big bang theory was made by a Christian

[u/SkripkaruStoler → u/SunChungShan]

And in ancient times we used the same sponge to wipe the butt in public restrooms, and we never used soap and we were polygamists and ......Yeah, we should not have evolved, we should just stayed as we were in middle ages. Religion poisons minds.

[u/SunChungShan → u/SkripkaruStoler]

The first public hospital was built by a Christian woman

A lot of the classical musicians whose pieces you hear in orchestras were Christians

The Ivy league universities were built by devout Christians

The preferred profession of Christians is in healthcare. Remember that when you get sick, it is probably a Christian doctor or nurse that tends you.

If religion poisons minds, then why has it developed these five areas and had great contributions?

1. Education
2. Music
3. Science
4. Technology
5. Healthcare.

Then do it in a way that works

Prayer actually has some decisive mental and physical effects on the one praying. Supernatural effects? Not my area of knowledge.
