Quote from: reaper
You are forgetting it's intrinsic in people to fear god to some extent.

Quote from: dahang
If they're taught about god and how he punishes, sure. But that means it's not intrinsic, because they were taught it.

People came up with the idea of god, that's why it's on the back of the dollar bill. Reality exists for people to come up with this again and again, it's not going to be shoved under the rug. People generally fear the unknown, and a big unknown is how would people react if they really knew there were no consequences to their actions.

And this has to do with the fact that god is _not_ intrinsic to people - they are told [a particular] God exists because??? Feelings of awe or splendor are intrinsic, but this is far from God - see nonmonotheistic cultures....

The lord spoke to me in a dream.

Well, he didn't exactly speak, he more or less used sign language.

I Corinthians 11:14 -- "Doth not even nature itself teach you, that, if a man have long hair, it is a shame unto him?"

Tsk tsk. Shame on you for your long-haired KingJesus.jpg !!!

Indonesia court upholds law banning blasphemy

Quote

http://www.signonsandiego.com/news/2010/apr/19/indonesia-court-upholds-blasphemy-law/

JAKARTA, Indonesia -- Indonesia's Constitutional Court ruled 8-1 Monday that a 45-year-old law banning religious blasphemy was constitutional.

The law calls for up to five years in prison for anyone found guilty of heresy and limits the number of officially recognized religions in Indonesia to six: Islam, Protestantism, Catholicism, Buddhism, Hinduism and Confucianism.

In practice, the law is applied primarily to perceived offences against mainstream Islam; nearly 90 percent of Indonesia's 240 million people are Muslims.

Auugh. So stupid. May I be the first to remind my fellow primates:

BLASPHEMY IS A VICTIMLESS CRIME
