Things you just hate in the world

Birth control is a wonderful thing. Just saying.

Yup.

But of course there are the good ol' religious folks who think its evil and should be made illegal.

Not really going to do much, what with medicine making us live longer, in turn causing longer generational overlaps, causing more and more people to be on the earth at once, causing people who would normally die to live and consume more resources...

And then people decide they want several kids and the birth rate stays relatively the same while the death rate drops. So...

[chupacabras acheronsis]

for the record South America as a hole has such a pitched descend in birth rates we are starting programs to pick it up.

a strong boost in population might be just what we need to kickstart space colonization you know. and to support it too.

Yea, I'm just afraid we might have a boost and then no one does anything.

Space colonization is definitely needed though, hopefully soon.

It's not, really.

Depends on how we handle ourselves in the next couple of years.
It definitely wouldn't hurt.

I don't think there's enough of them to worry about it.

True, that's beginning to not be a problem. It's still irritating though.
To quote Neil Degrasse Tyson:

"God is just an ever receding pocket of scientific ignorance."

Blessed are the smug.

Yes, well, it's good to know Neil's spending his brief stint at pointlessness providing pointless soundbites for a pointless debate.
Good Lord, atheist inception!

Actually, it just led off of something Bill O'Reilly said. "Tides come in and out, you can't explain that, it must be god." the guy he was interviewing simply stared, not believing what he had heard. Eventually one thing led to another and they asked Neil about this, who said that science can and has explained the tides, and several other things. He said that as science unlocks more and more clues and answers, the amount of stuff you can say "God did that, there's no other explanation" to, recedes. The quote followed.

I wouldn't say it was pointless, bill just didn't think through what he said no blurted something out. Neil wasn't trying to be obnoxious or add fuel to the fire of a pointless debate, they asked and he gave his opinion, which I happen to agree with.

I respect your opinion though, as do other atheists. I don't hate religion or god, just dislike the religious people that stop progression. You have not given any evidence that your like this, and therefor, I respect your opinion and have no problem with it. I'm sure Neil wouldn't have a problem with you either.

I just liked the quote. I apologize if I offended you.

[BANE]

What makes you think I'm offended?

I hate Bill O'Reilly more than most, and I certainly am not religious.

[SM]

The only thing Bill "thinks through" is how best to troll people.

Oh. Well shit, I'm not very observant.
DERP.

I thought you were mad because of how I read your post, so I was being cautious and wrote that post..
Ignore my stupidity.
