Why? Everything he's said is completely rational and logical...how is that idiotic? Is it because you're neither of those things, and thus to you he seems like an idiot? I don't get it. |

Religion, by its nature, deals in absolutes. I don't see how you've demonstrated your divorce from its clutches. |

Then the only real idiot here is you, because nowhere in H2O's post did he say he was a believer of religion. |

Exactly. He was simply being an open minded ,educated person who actually took the time to know what it was about instead of being in the dark. That way when it came up he could say something more than " OMG IT'S LAME. TOME CRUISE IS THE DEVILLLLLLLLLL" |

it's one thing to say like this in jest, but i think he/she was serious. |

Well this is a decent point of discussion then. I think you took both of those terms from the same sentence of mine in which I said that humans were, in general, "broken" in some form or another.
Do you disagree with this?
Like I said before, I don't think that this is how it's always been. I think we're in a pretty sad state of affairs at the moment. If you look at human history, there's always been potential for revolt; potential for change, but in our current world, thought is prescribed to you through a little black box in every living room. How can things change (read: develop) when people's very thoughts are under some form of control or another?
The drug industry is enormous and reaches practically everywhere in the world. It's also completely legal with the correct documentation. I'm not denouncing drugs in general. But when everyone is on one form of prescription or another, where does that leave us? Under the rule of people ready to profit from our dependency. And when these drugs numb our ability to reason, where will our revolution be?
Once more, I'm not necessarily defending Scientology as a religion. I am, however, compliant in its supposed understanding that people should come to realization on their own terms rather than resorting to pills or televised repetition. |
