Anyway, one of the things that I dislike about religion is that it promotes ignorance.
F.ex. people not acknowledging the overwhelming evidence of both climate change and evolution.
Don't believe everything you read in your biased science textbook.
Not saying Intelligent Design science textbooks aren't biased too, but atleast they admit it.
And I also have 2 questions regarding evolution.
1. How did the big bang happen
2. How did life happen
No atheist I know can answer both of those questions compellingly.
Life doesn't just happen randomly. It's impossible.
Well, the big bang is a more complicated topic, and that's why people don't accept it-it's much easier to believe that an invisible sky wizard made the universe. Although, doesn't the universe seem a little big, if God only cared about Earth? However, the question about the origin of life is a lot easier to explain. If you take a swamp, 200 million years or so in the past, there are many amino acids inside the swamp, all swirling around. All of the ingredients for life were there, all they had to do was come together to form a single celled organism. Some scientists thing this may have occurred at one of the heat vents under the ocean. It's easily possible for life to occur randomly. So if science textbooks are biased, they're biased towards the truth.

Most of that is not true. And anyways, there is a lot of evidence the bible was heavily 'modified' during the middle ages to promote violence and hate, it's thought of as the first ever examples of physical propaganda.
And to be honest, is humanity going to get anywhere by hating each other? Just shut up with the fighting, if violence is what you're complaining about...
Which of those bullet points do you not think is true? A quick google search will help you find answers for all of them. Anyway, if the bible was modified to promote hate, and you still respect it, doesn't that mean you support the hate? But whatever, I know you christians only read the verses you like.
Is humanity going to get anywhere by hating each other? Well, we've been hating each other for thousands of years, and we're here now, right? And don't try and pretend that Christians aren't/weren't a big part of that hate. Also, you seem to think my discussion with Ozone was fighting, whereas it wasn't even really an argument.
