Errr Goodfellas? Because its a pizza.

My point is that I dont think religion will "just fizzle out". My point is I think religion is an evolved predisposition. My point is I think religion is here to stay - like it or not.

Sorry if there is another thread like this. So whats your favourite film? Mine is: 28days later.

Nothing.

Keep in mind that even 79% is a majority! Keep in mind that this is post scientific revolution! Keep in mind that this backs up many psychologists conclusions that religion is in-built in the human brain!

Well America wouldn't really have highest percentage of creationists. Actually according to the encyclopedia britannica, the worlds non proponents of religion are far less 14% and even 10%. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Religions

When In the 21st century, only 10% of the worlds population are atheist, what makes you think religion will just fizzle out?

Personal observations. Personal scepticism. Lack of long term data. Problems with isolating death from smoking from death by other means in populations.

I may print that out and show it to my Nan.

Which study did you get this from? Dont get me wrong, I think the dangers of smoking are sensationalized. The deaths from smoking dont seem to be as many as we are told to believe. benefits may be overlooked in between the antismoking ranting.

Im British.

Yeah, I guess I've been on Richard Dawkins Forums too long.

Well to clarify: In general Atheists resent the corruption of young minds and basic indoctrination. As well as the dismissal of established science(like evolution) that religion involves.

I did! I didnt start the thread "to bash religion". I started the thread because I thought most of us here were above believing in superstitions, so therefore asked the question "Would we be better off if religion was not here?", or would we in fact be worse off?

Huh? Are you retarded? Where did I say I hate religions?
