Don’t I wish that some of the individuals who denigrate my ideas would offer a viable alternative. I know they say that over half the population has an IQ below 100 and half are above that. The knockers either are mockers or display a monumental lack of background knowledge that make their opinion of no benefit to sensible discussion.

Where have the clever generation gone? Clever people look at the evidence, weigh it against their existing known facts and add or subtract from what they already know before making a comment. Too many times I have had people say I am mad, drunk or otherwise indisposed, when I can assure you that posting comments is like driving a car, and best done after engaging an unfuddled and unintoxicated brain.

Unintoxicated means not carrying any toxic substances or thoughts in that space that separates the ears, and perhaps the most toxic thought that can infest an otherwise normal brain is prejudice. Prejudice is a feature of Islam, of Jewish thought and of many Christians indoctrinated since birth that there is a way to the mind of Almighty God through intermediaries.

This was considered so toxic a thought as to warrant death. It is not a monopoly view held only by people of the Islamic faith. The current world crisis between Islam and Christianity, exhibited in a shooting war in Iraq and Afghanistan is the result of an over affection for prejudices. The situation in Zimbabwe is the result of prejudice holding that white is bad and one black tribe is right.

Christianity is a template for good government. A single Judge, Islamic, Jewish or atheist as in what passes for a secular society but is in reality an atheist one, does not make for good government. One God makes a country function successfully.

A society has to have a winnowing floor. The winnowing floor is a superior authority to which an aggrieved individual can appeal. In Islam it is the Qu’ran, the Jews have the Torah, and Christians have the Holy Bible. In this case ignorance is a toxic societal poison

"One God makes a country function properly"
You're joking,arent you,Peter The Believer In Fairy Tales?

In the past century one-God crusading countries have taken Christian nations to many wars.Want me to name just some? OK

World War 1, World War 11, The Korean War, the Vietman War, Iraq,Afghanistan.

If we count Islamic countries they have a mandate from Allah to create the Third Caliphate in the world. They are at war all over the world confronting the heretics who worship false gods.

Where haveall the intelligent people gone? you ask. You arent counting yourself amongst them,surely,PTB?

Any country can function properly if it unites behind a common cause. The monotheisms have worked in the past, not because of some deity, but because of the 'social glue' they impart.

I'm now waiting for a Western society to loudly declare itself atheist and humanist as a means to defining its culture. These are two intellectual points that any country can rally behind. The spin-offs would be more universities, colleges, museums, music halls, and art galleries. These things would replace the delusional edifices like churches, mosques and temples.

The UK is just around the corner from becoming an Islamic State where Sharia Law will rule the land, women and girls will be beaten and kill for each rape and molestation. Oh yes, haven't the lefties down well here.

That's a gross exaggeration Spider. The UK is no where near becoming an Islamic state with Sharia law. ALL of the available statistics show that traditional religion is in steep decline and that less than 10% of the population attend churches, mosques, temples etc regularly. What's more, the logic of the atheist message appears to be is sinking in. Atheism is now a country wide intellectual and cultural force.

The only reason that Britain FEELS more Islamic is because try-hard fundamentalists shout the loudest. Also, overseas Islamic missionary groups pour millions of pounds into Britain to build Islamic infrastructure and brainwash more people. All that the UK government has to do is to prophibit religious foreign capital from entering the country. This, atheist lobby groups are currently insisting upon.

What a vivid imagination you have, Spider

>>The UK is just around the corner from becoming an Islamic State where Sharia Law will rule the land, women and girls will be beaten and kill for each rape and molestation<<

Less than 4% of the population of the UK follow Islam.

That's four in every hundred people.

Not even enough for serious scaremongering, I'd suggest.
