Yes, I think the real message here is that a belief in God and being religous doesn't mean someone has to be anti-abortion, bible thumping, God fearing, anti-gay, evangelical red-state conservative. Which might come as a shock to those people but to everyone else, not so much.

How is that "Scary"? You're seriously misunderstanding religion.

that's pretty scary

Why? Do you know that there isnt a God? What makes you so bright that you think there isnt one?

as far as im concerned, the onus is on people that believe in magic to show evidence of that magic.

i also think the mental processes one goes through to establish a belief in god to be largely emotive, irrational and pretty silly. i find the concept of god to be pretty silly.

thus i find believers to be pretty silly.

i dont need to be shown proof there arent fairies on the dark side of the moon for me to discount the idea.

But all these years of civilization, and when I hear stats that almost 90 percent of the world believes in God or a supperior bein..then it makes me think, that you might be the stupid one here.

^Actually that is where you are wrong. Stupid people far outnumber the smart people...like 9 to 10.

You really cant call 9 of 10 people in this world stupid. There is no fact on that anyways, its just your opinion.
