Inventing Calculus and the math that accurately predicts the orbit of planets and other celestial objects is a wee bit more than discovering that things fall down.
This from a guy who worships a dead baseball player? So, as I understand the "logic" here, some loony lady shoots somebody because she thinks their Easter outfit is out of line, and that says something valid about the evils of religion. Seems like pretty frequently you read about soccer hooligans going berserk and killing opposing fans for wearing the other team's colors. Must mean that soccer is evil.
Good analogy, and no, it doesn't mean soccer is evil. I can't help but wonder though if soccer fans would then claim that the story has nothing to do with soccer.
Fortunately the two (soccer and drinking too much) aren't mutually exclusive, so we'd both be right. To repeat a phrase I used earlier, weird how those two things so often coincide.
Please inform us. Define what "your God" is. Then tell us how "your God" is different than Einstein's God. (by "your" I mean the same "your" you did above).
I'm not offended. You're just jumping to the conclusion that because somebody had a dislike of an issue that just happend to align with something religious, their dislike must be based in religion. And that is a leap in logic. Sorry.
My point is that almost everybody has a different definition of "God", even within Christianity. It seems pretty absurd to think you can, as a third person, decide who's Gods are different.
That very well could be the case. I didn't see anything in the article that mentioned this. Did I miss something?
Or cowards. Einstein was a fervent Atheist and made no bones about it, and without researching the others I'll add the thought that atheism was punishable by death during most of these people's lifetimes (see Galileo), and employment depended on it. There was no such thing as Freedom of Speech. Most atheists did not dare to admit it, so we'll never really know who believed what back then.
Interestingly, there is nothing in the article that would keep somebody from starting an equally ridiculous thread with the title: "Atheist Zealots strike again!"
