Remember that televangelist Kenneth Copeland is worth $760 million and Rev. Jim Bakker was convicted in 1989 and sentenced to 45 years in prison. The sentence was later reduced to eight years, and he was released in 1994.

Well, religion does help you hijack an airliner and fly it into a building. 'Allahu Akbar'
Religion did help evolution in the beginning when it was an opiate you really needed when you looked at your dead kids and your rotting leg.
Now it is a hindrance to positive evolution.

Madame Curie, one of the greatest scientists of all time, was born Maria Sklodowska on November 7, 1867, in Warsaw, Poland—then occupied Russia. She was the daughter of two teachers: her freethinking father, a nationalist who taught physics and mathematics, and her Catholic mother, who ran a prestigious boarding school and died of tuberculosis when Maria was just ten years old.
Curie is said to have become an agnostic as a teenager and was described variously throughout her life as a rationalist, an atheist, and a freethinker. “Nothing in life is to be feared,” she said. “It is only to be understood.”

Inanna is among the oldest deities whose names are recorded in ancient Sumer. She is listed among the earliest seven divine powers: Anu, Enlil, Enki, Ninhursag, Nanna, Utu, and Inanna. These seven would form the basis for many of the characteristics of the gods who followed.
Man made gods in his image.

Yep, you either have faith there is a God, or you have not seen one single bit of evidence that there is a God.

The following charges have been directed at Christianity generally, and the established church specifically:
* That 9 million people were killed as a result of the witch hunts
* That the witch hunts were the product of a deliberate campaign by the established church to suppress an ancient pagan ‘mother goddess’ religion, or (more generally), to suppress women
* That the witch hunts were the result of hysterical anti-heresy efforts carried out by the Inquisition
* That the witch hunt era came to an end as a result of the ‘Age of Reason’, the rise of science, and a declining belief in the supernatural

Albert Einstein wrote in 1954, one year before he died, "The word 'God' is for me nothing but the expression and product of human weaknesses; the Bible a collection of honorable but still primitive legends which are nevertheless pretty childish,"

It is interesting to note that J. Robert Oppenheimer, father of the atomic bomb, was an atheist and a scientist, but culturally Jewish.

Shout "Allahu Akbar" at the moment of attack, Mohammed Atta told his men. Hijacked United Airlines Flight 175 from Boston crashes into the south tower of the World Trade Center and explodes at 9:03 a.m. on September 11, 2001 in New York City. Atta instructs each muscle man to shout "Allahu Akbar!" (God is greatest) at the moment of attack "for this cry strikes fear in the hearts of unbelievers." "You must not let it be noticed about you that you recite the credo, 'There is no god but God,'"Atta wrote. "For though you recite it a thousand times, no one should be able to distinguish whether you were silent or mentioning God. The greatness of [the phrase] 'There is no god but God' is shown by the statement of the Prophet that 'he who recites there is no god but God and whose heart believes in it, enters Paradise.'"

You are correct. Resetting a router may help resolve a DNS issue. When a router is reset, its cache will be refreshed, which may resolve the issue. Unplug the router and modem. Wait at least 15 seconds before plugging the power cables back in.

#8. In another sense, there will be less of a generational divide between old and young. We'll have plenty of old people who grew up playing video games, continued playing video games as adults, continued to buy the latest games and install the latest gaming hardware, etc. More old people meming and hanging out on "young" spaces.
Thanks

The four canonical gospels—Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John—were all composed within the Roman Empire between 70 and 110 C.E (± five to ten years) as biographies of Jesus of Nazareth. Written a generation after the death of Jesus (ca. 30 C.E), none of the four gospel writers were eyewitnesses to the ministry of Jesus.

The majority of New Testament scholars agree that the Gospels do not contain eyewitness accounts; but that they present the theologies of their communities rather than the testimony of eyewitnesses.

In the beginning, God was a lonely being. Due to His loneliness, God created the angels, and they worshipped and loved Him. However, God grew bored with receiving the praise from the angels, so He decided to create mankind even though He knew that He was condemning this species to a miserable existence.
When He told the angels of His plans on creating Humanity, they were horrified by His announcement. As such, a great war was waged on Heaven ending with massive bloodshed and the remaining angels being expelled. Feeling that His Angel of Death was failing to live up to what He intended, God orchestrated the deaths of a good man's wife and daughter, which leads to that man becoming the Saint of Killers. Throughout the years, God indulged in the worship of humanity despite being fully responsible for all of the wars, famine, and other heinous atrocities that befall the Earth. Despite this, God craved more affection. And so, He arranged the creation of Genesis, a being conceived from a Seraphim and a demon, solely so He could see if a being more powerful than Himself would choose to love him.
However, His plan goes awry, and Genesis goes to inhabit the body of a Texas preacher named Jesse Custer. As a result, Jesse embarks on a mission to find God and question Him about the abandonment of His creation.

If you, a friend or a loved one remain unvaccinated against COVID-19 at this point – for whatever reason – you are at higher risk for dying if you do become infected.
That's the conclusion of a report The Associated Press released looking at COVID-19 deaths during May 2021.
Of more than 18,000 people who died from COVID-19, for example, only about 150 were fully vaccinated. That's less than 1%.

In the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the foundation of human rights, the text and negotiating history of the "right to life" explicitly premises human rights on birth. Likewise, other international and regional human rights treaties, as drafted and/or subsequently interpreted, clearly reject claims that human rights should attach from conception or any time before birth. They also recognise that women's right to life and other human rights are at stake where restrictive abortion laws are in place. No one has the right to subordinate another in the way that unwanted pregnancy subordinates a woman by requiring her to risk her own health and life to save her own child. Thus, the long-standing insistence of women upon voluntary motherhood is a demand for minimal control over one's destiny as a human being. From a human rights perspective, to depart from voluntary motherhood would impose upon women an extreme form of discrimination and forced labour. This is in the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights, the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and the Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Discrimination Against Women, the European Convention for the Protection of Human Rights and Fundamental Freedoms, the Inter-American Human Rights Agreements and African Charter on Human and People's Rights.
