The Atheist Pig on creationism

A recent Gallup poll indicated that 46% of Americans believe in creationism.

Rightardia suggests that American parents are often indoctrinating their children with irrational beliefs about the world at an early age.

Is there any wonder why the US is behind other nations in science and mathematics?

The right wing in the US has become increasingly Christo-fascist. Preachers talk about Christian prosperity, a concept that is not evident in the Bible but is supportive of corporations and an affluent life style in conflict with the teachings of Jesus.

This theology is appealing to poorer Americans.

Mainstream evangelicalism has consistently rejected prosperity theology. Prosperity ministries have frequently come into conflict with other Christian groups, including those within the Pentecostal and Charismatic movements.

Critics argue that prosperity theology has little in common with traditional Christian theology.

How religion has retarded society

Uploaded by ReasonableMe on Sep 3, 2010

Neil deGrasse Tyson, an American astrophysicist and Director of the Hayden Planetarium, discusses how Islamic fundamentalist destroyed the enlightenment era of the Middle East and why we should be concerned today.roman 

What Tyson is talking about also happened in Europe for a 1,000 years after the fall of the Roman Empire.

When the Moors invaded Spain 711, Spain was still in the dark ages and the Moors were hundreds of years ahead of the Spanish. 

Then something regressive happened to Islamic culture. Tyson explains it well. 

Could this happen in the US, too? You betcha. 

As Barry Goldwater explained to The Advocate: 

I don't have any respect for the Religious Right. There is no place in this country for practicing religion in politics. That goes for Falwell, Robertson and all the rest of these political preachers. They are a detriment to the country.

Christianity's Effect on Western Civilization

When the European Union was being formed, the Church and Society Commission of the Conference of European Churches (CEC) wanted Christianity to be mentioned in the charter for its contributions.

''This decision not to mention our religious heritage denies an aspect of Europe's history," said Keith Jenkins, director of the Church and Society Commission of the Conference of European Churches (CEC), which brings together most of Europe's Protestant, Anglican and Orthodox churches.

An acknowledgement of Europe's "religious heritage" had earlier been left out of the charter's preamble at the insistence of the French prime minister, Lionel Jospin, whose country has a long tradition of the separation of church and state.

Christianity's contribution to Europe is  checkered. The Spanish Inqusiton didn't end until 1830 and Catholic Church had been involved in religious wars with Protestants for hundreds of years. Science was also repressed.

What brought Europe out of the Dark Ages? it was the flourishing of liberal thought in the Renaissance and the Reformation. 

But wait, there's more! The truth is Christianity made some negative contributions to Europe and retarded Europe for 1000 years. Unfortunately Islam seems to be having the the same effect on the Middle East.
