@marc_w@union.place#Christians tell us that the #EndTimes are near, and one of the signs is the rampant immorality we see...but is it true?
The illusion of moral decline

We show that the perception of moral decline is pervasive,…
NatureReminder:
No one who loves you will tell you, "Either you love me, or die!".
Much less, "Either you obey me, or I'm taking you into the basement and setting you on fire for all eternity!"
No one who loves you tells you, "You're so horrifically evil, you should feel lucky to have me!", or, "No one else will ever love you the way I do!", or, "You are WORTHLESS without me!"

www.youtube.comI think what disturbs me most about a lot of the religious right whenever they debate atheists on the existence of god, is that a lot of them are so incredibly desperate to get to the 'Yes, a god exists!' conclusion...
But not for the sake of their belief.
It's NOT because it means that we can understand the universe and ourselves better, or that we can make life better for everyone because of it.

In these trying times I am happy to pass along some good news for the reality-based community.
Bertrand Russell was a critic of all religions, but he did not see Buddhism as equally dangerous as Christianity.

Bertrand Russell, one of the greatest philosophers…
Scientists Free From Religious"Among the educated class, at least, it used to be only the brave weirdos who were atheists, and now it’s only the brave weirdos who aren’t. Douthat quotes a Tom Stoppard play where a philosopher muses: “It is a tide which has turned only once in human history… there is presumably a calendar date — a moment — when the onus of proof passed from the atheist to the believer, when, quite suddenly, the noes had it.”"

Believe: Why Everyone Should Be Religious, Ross Douthat…
Mr. and Mrs. Psmith’s BookshelfThe review, by #JohnPsmith of #RossDouthat's new book defending #religion, quotes #GKChesterton:
"The believers in miracles accept them (rightly or wrongly) because they have evidence for them. The disbelievers in miracles deny them (rightly or wrongly) because they have a doctrine against them it is you rationalists who refuse actual evidence being constrained to do so by your creed."
(#Miracles are only a small section of the review, but it's suitable for short extracts.)
3/3
"In this respect our society is a bit like a communist one, where the entire ruling class adheres strictly to a certain dogma and everybody else quietly pretends to believe it while actually disbelieving it, because it clashes profoundly with their direct experience of the world. Disenchantment is official but virtual. The official encouragement and recognition of miracles stopped, but the miracles kept pouring in."

Reading A History of Wester Philosophy and reminded that its not just the Oligarchs looking for political control. It’s also the church (All of those religions, not just a Christians). Fascism is a slick way to seize control for all of them. #atheism #fascism #oligarchy #uspol
