Who said a religious belief had to include a God or Gods?

Posted by: DTravel on Oct 29, 17:35 in response to JDolphin's post Sorry to burst your bubble, but there are plenty that...

What you've culturally indoctrinated to call a religious belief is not what a religious belief actually is.  Its actually a very narrow subset of the true range of religious belief.  For example, how is it that you define those actions as "the right thing to do"?  What is it about them that makes them "the right thing to do"?

I'm not trying to offend anyone, despite knowing that its impossible to discuss religion without doing so.  I'm actually making an effort to not offend by taking a step back and widening the scope of discussion.

And just to throw everyone a curve ball, one can argue that athiests are the religious subset of agnostics.  Wink

Ok lets all try this one,religion is the root of all evil therefore we are all evil, so lets all move on {nm} blaze223 Oct 29, 13:01

What about those of us who do not have a religion? {nm} RogerMore Oct 29, 13:07

How many of the world conflicts of the last 1000 years were started by atheists/agnostics {nm} blaze223 Oct 29, 13:12

No one has no religious beliefs. DTravel Oct 29, 16:32

Perhaps it should be more correctly called a "religious opinion" since no two people believe in the exact same thing the same way? {nm} BSmurf Oct 29, 17:17

Sorry to burst your bubble, but there are plenty that don't and I'm one of them. Breathing is intrinsic, religion is taught. I don't know JDolphin Oct 29, 17:18

I don't care how you define it - I don't have it. I don't care how the universe was formed, or if there is a higher power. As for what is JDolphin Oct 29, 21:20

That's about it. i do value religion, for OTHER people. If that's what it takes to have a mostly civil society. I do not think all edzep - Port Monkey! Oct 29, 21:57

big bang doesnt say you have contracting universe, it says there was a beginning. one of the basic premises for the existence of a creator. {nm} forlorne Oct 30, 06:02

Research the BBT a bit more. This may be happening over and over again. Expansion/contraction to a singularity which explodes/expands again. BSmurf Oct 30, 07:52

The Big Crunch theory fell out of favor with the discovery of Dark Energy. DTravel Oct 30, 15:36

Interesting. I never said anything about the beginning of the universe. Why do you think religious belief has to include that? {nm} DTravel Oct 30, 15:33

I wasn't serious. I just didn't want to miss out on all the evil! {nm} RogerMore Oct 29, 17:43
