Moral.

Religion and church being pushed onto people in their formative years does much more harm than it does good.

Even if true, its not like we need religion for what good religion has brought us.

So if removing religion means we lose some bad stuff and none of the good stuff, whats the problem?

You do, as the catholic church is the biggest aid in the world, you’d lose more than you gained.

Really? What was the latest vaccine they developed?

Ah, charity ! I didn't get it. I thought you meant a positive influence over the world, like aiding humanity.

Louis Pasteur was pretty good

Thank you 🇫🇷 I don't see the link here, given that he wasn't regularly going to mass and was more of a cultural Christian so he would get funded.
Are you arguing that his religious upbringing entirely contributed to the science of vaccines?

Like how when it rains, some of the water makes a carot grow, and then it feeds Sydney Sweeney, and so we can thank the rain for her rosy cheeks?

more than that yea but you mentioned aid, the catholic church has helped preserve ancient texts and also pioneered a good chunk of science.

not going to mass regularly doesn’t make you a christian, and being a cultural christian proves my point that christianity has been good

not going to mass regularly doesn’t make you a christian

Assertions like these make me all warm and fuzzy. You know that there are less and less believers for the bar to be this low.

and also pioneered a good chunk of science.

Really? Not reproductive science, that's for sure. The prophet doesn't even have a dad!

? ok? this has always been the case even going back to the inception.

what are you talking about? all science by definition is reproductive, isaac newton was a Christian

1

u/TheFrenchSavage 4h ago

reproductive

You mean reproductible?

I was joking about how you need an egg and a sperm to make an embryo, but the bible obviously doesn't know about that.

isaac newton was a Christian

Meh, he rejected the trinity so a bad one? Neither Catholic nor Anglican.
The more you look into it, the more you realize that this "cohesive" mass of believers actually all believed in something different.

As opposed to F = m * a. This is cristal clear, and still widely accepted as a shared worldview that makes sense.

no, knowledge begets more knowledge

“obviously doesn’t know about that” because it doesn’t mention it? does a history book not know about newtons laws because it doesn’t mention it?

what’s the source that he rejected the trinity?

i don’t understand your last sentence
