Da li je religija stetna ili korisna za ljudsko drustvo?

[Bakemono]

Nemam pojma kako se zovu, uglavnom svako ko obrće ogromne pare od nafte, vojske/oružja, narkotika itd.Ma da, kako se nisam setio, nije sveta zemlja... jesi bakemono ili bakamono? :P

Rekao sam da nije blizu svete zemlje. :) Ali nebitno, u principu se slažem da se ratovi vode iz interesa, ali religija liderima pomaže i omogućava da te ciljeve sprovedu u delo. Nećemo se nikad složiti na ovoj temi, tako da je bolje da se povučem. -_- PS. Dobra šala. :)

Nemaš pojma, ali znaš da oni stoje iza svega i da nema veze sa religijom.Bez obzira što je W upravo to tvrdio zabezeknutom Chirac-u kad je tražio od njega da se priključi koaliciji? Bez obzira što Rumsfeld filuje tajne vojne i obaveštajne izveštaje citatima iz Biblije?

Lol, znači ti veruješ da je Amerika aktivna na Bliskom istoku pre svega iz religioznih razloga? A nama prebacuješ da verujemo u Deda Mraza? Pa ti ne da veruješ u Deda Mraza, već i u Rudolfa i patuljke sve skupa. Ok, tvoja stvar, veruj u čega god hoćeš, free country što kažu tamo u Americi :)

[Аврам Гојић]

verovanje da je Amerika intervenisala u Avganistanu zbog opijuma jednako je verovanju u Boga, zato sto je bazirano na jednako dobrim dokazima.

Mogao bi malo da se raspitaš o ideologiji američke hrišćanske desnice pre nego što predjemo na Snežanu i patuljke. Sve je tu povezano : Amerikanci su "one nation under God", planetu Zemlju im je Bog stavio na raspolaganje i resursi su tu da se nemilice troše dok ih ima. Tu spada i nafta.

Nisam iscitala sve do kraja nastavka rasprave, ali moze i bez toga. Krenimo redom:@Bakemono, da bi dokazao postojanje necega, morao bi bar da umes tacno definisati to sto dokazujes. Dozvoli da ti ja pomognem u tome. Ti si pojam svest definisao, ako sam dobro razumela, kao nase ja, nesto sto upravlja nasim postupcima i donosi odluke. Da li je tako? Hoces da kazes da slobodna volja postoji? Kako ta svest nastaje i opstaje, interakcijom neurona u mozgu ili nekako drugacije? Vecina religija propoveda neki moralan obrazac, ali najvaznije od svega je sto propoveda dve stvari, jednakost i slobodu. Svako ima slobodan izbor, svako moze da tezi savrsenstvu i vecnosti ako prihvati tu religiju, svako moze biti dobar vernik (covek), ali nije svako lep, zdrav, sit ili pametan. I sta cemo sa moralom? Ako bioloski ne postoji razlog za izdvajanje ljudi iz biosfere, zasto bi neko vise osecao krivicu kada ubije coveka nego kravu? @dekss bilo bi lepo od tebe da napises da li si vernik ili ne, nadam se da ne trazim mnogo. Samo, bez uvrede, ali moj savet ti je da ne budes niciji advokat ako ces na ovaj nacin nekoga da branis kao sada religiju. Prouci dobro razliku izmedju reci belief i faith pre nego sto krenes da pises ovakve nebuloze, moze?Da ti pomognem, postavicu ti pitanje:Imas dezorganizovanu rulju ne narocito pametnih osoba koje se nalaze u blizini ruba pustinje, sa namirnicama koje trose. Ako se organizuju, nece biti mrtvi. Imas i usamljenog coveka, tamo negde u srcu pustinje, koji se nada kisi ili karavanu. Sta mislis, cija vera je smislenija?
