| I'm sorry if I offended anyone. However its just difficult for me, especially growing up in a cynical, science accepting family, to see how people can ignore facts and logic. 2+2=4 whatever the bible/koran/torah/vedas etc say. And though Darwin is a theory, it is so well qualified now that it seems like people are closing their eyes and sticking fingers in their ears not to believe. I am not attacking any of the Judeo-Christian religions, I just don't see why people still believe in that bit. The times when Genesis stories came about lacked the knowledge we have today. They explained the world in their ways, and it suited them. We don't need to believe it today when we have a better proved theory.
Its like original sin. All humanity is damned because Adam was damned, and we were all literally there, in his semen, thus we are damned too. From this more things were damned as evil, like masturbation, because it was believed it was as good as killing somebody to 'spill your seed'. But now we know that we were not all there seminally at the fall of humanity, thus all following logic is mooted.
Socialism is a philosophy of failure, the creed of ignorance, and the gospel of envy, its inherent virtue is the equal sharing of misery.
