I propose that we ban the teaching of science in public schools and universities, and replace it with teaching the parables of Jesus.

Jesus taught people how to be compassionate human beings, while science has only given us gas chambers and nuclear weapons.

If we never had science, we would have lived peaceful lives as hunter-gatherers like Adam and Eve did in Eden, so we should get rid of science and replace it with the religion which Jesus taught to his disciples.

I gave a presentation on evolution to all three sections of my eight grade class. A local preacherman threatened my life. God's chosen sure don't act like it.
We 'new atheists' have a reputation for being militant, but make no mistake  we didn't start this war. If you want to place blame put it on the the religious zealots who have been poisoning the minds of the  young for a long long time."

Human lifespan during the Middle Ages when the bible was science was 30-35 years and people died of little things like bad teeth when not starving to death. Roughly 85-90% of the population lived as peasants, enduring harsh labor, poor sanitation, and high infant mortality. While the nobility and clergy lived in relative luxury, commoners faced frequent famine, and horrible disease.

Of course, so many uneducated religious morons want to end science/vaccines and bring back polio and smallpox. We are having a moron measles outbreak right now. A disease that WAS eradicated decades ago.

Jesus didn't teach compassion. He demanded subservience to a dictator (and said it is more important than love for one's own family.) It's just the thing brainless people crave. That's why they love dictator Trump too.

You would have died of dysentery.

One sure thing about religious nuts, is their willful ignorance of their own history. Christianity was never spread with the love and compassion of Jesus. It was spread by the sword and death. FFS, the inquisition killed tens of thousands of innocent humans over the "compassion" you babble about. And not once did Jesus bother to intervene. Most likely, because he was dead. Do yourself a favor to avoid such stupid embarrassing topics of which you apparently know not a damn thing about
A humans desire to live is exceeded only by their willingness to die for another. Even god cannot equal this magnificent sacrifice. No god has the right to judge them.-first tenant of the Panotheust
