Agreed. We know more, but I wonder if our reliance on technology has not made us dumber.I haven't said what I believe or don't believe. That isn't the point. The point is that Atheism as a philosophy represents no actual evolution or advancement of thought itself. Humanity has more information to work with and thus more knowledge than it did when Bronze Age religions were formed. However, there exists no evidence of any kind to suggest that humans are any smarter than they were tens of thousands of years ago. Thought patterns and processes that determine human behavior haven't changed. People are no more or less intelligent overall. Small wonder that people naturally continue to believe that the most recent discoveries and revelations are always correct and true.Are they anything like lipstick liberals?Pop culture atheists apparently believe that systems of morality evolve independently without historic or cultural influence.That is a deep question with significant implications.Did your moral values evolve in isolation?Besides abortion give me another example of how your religion makes your values different than mine. Did you wait to be married before you had sex? Did you divorce? Ever cheat? Lie? Steal? These are all things I know are wrong but many Christians do these things
Sorry I don't believe your ancient religion or the 999 other ones and I don't believe in ghosts or fortune tellers either. Do you?
