The Role of Religion In Causing Rape

The Nerd's discussion is very popular and spirited, so I suggest breaking it up into subcategories, so as not to be inundated with comments.

I've always felt that religion weaves a pernicious web in human behavior. Making people to associate guilt and shame with our natural bodies is a crime against humanity. Religious orthodoxy takes a wonderful gift of nature and

If sex were a positive and natural activity, I believe rape would diminish and eventually cease in an enlightened society.

i'm of the notion if people/kids etc.. do not have education w/o myth scripts etc getting rammed or pill mills or bad drugs etc.. w/o any outlets/playgrounds skills, capabilities to break from drama.. repression happens.. bordem . are folks really that distracted by their gods to not enjoy life? or is it too simple and their so called leaders pushing social fascist agenda that's too complex which leads the parents to create rapist monsters...?

guess it's always going to come down to the $. refer to the book i posted for proof in the unconstitutional.

My first funeral as an atheist

I posted the bulk of this on another thread, but wanted to add some context separately.

I finally confronted my faith and embraced the fact of my atheism late last August, 2012. Days after I revealed my "epiphany" to a few friends who knew me from another message board, my sister died from Lou Gehrig's Disease (which pissed her off because she hated catching a disease from someone she never f---ed).

Death of a family member

Posted by Larry Taylor on May 20, 2013 at 8:15pm 10 Comments

OK. I am venting. My mother died two weeks ago. She was a “god fearing christian.” Before her death she refused all medical treatment. She wanted to be left alone. She even refused to speak with my brother who is a methodist minister. He is a pip, let me tell you!

I work in a psychiatric hospital. The doctors who admit patients are general MDs. (Psychiatrists see patients after admission) Yesterday evening we received several calls from irate parents. A new doctor who was doing admissions yesterday actually…
