We can wipe away the entire human race with technology but we haven't. Potential is different from what has already been achieved and I think op was referring to what has already been achieved. This issue is debatable. grin

Do you realise religion itself could be the reason anyone would even contemplate flicking such W button in the first place?

Religion has been the reason behind the most barbaric crimes against humanity we've witnessed as a race.

Dont rope in religion with a false and unfair premise.

If we go by what has been achieved, politics killed and have destroyed 10 times what religion has through history. It still remains.

Shame on your poor comprehension skills! It is appalling how you want to try to turn the tide using someone’s terrible ideology which is totally full of religious bigotry to taunt the foundations of Christianity.

At the same time, who am I to judge you? Go on and enjoy your few minutes of madness!

Why did you choose to cherry pick the aspects of the comment?

Question is, hasn't religion been behind some of the greatest crimes against humanity we've witnessed?

God led the people of Isreal out of Egypt without any weapon of war.

Religion ??
I don't no what to say about it again
but I no only the deluded and frustrated beings will take it serious

To me everything about it is just mind controling tool invented by the con men of a given society to gain recognition and commands respect of the people,which has eventually led to the commanding of the people's hard-earned money in the name of representing an invisible God , with no significant benefit of any kind,cos if any I am sure Nigerians would have been the top benefactor

some times I imagine a supposed kan if God who claims have the power to make u wealthy but cannot use same power on himself first to confirm it,s authenticity ,but will rather use a subtle and dubious means to cut a reasonable percentage of ur income and all the peoples who have fallen victim of his scam through varieties of acrobatics means ranging from offerings,tithes,firstfruit,donation,deed sowing,charity offering,evangelism offering
,etc and they are still mimicking on a new plan/way to defraud the innocent but gullible puppet

it is not a coincidence that those things has the intense occurrence here in Africa cos the black race is the most gullible species on planet earth
You have said it all. Religion is one of the major reasons for our continued backwardness in this nation coupled with superstitious beliefs. People are discouraged from reasoning and making use of their brains. They are discouraged from asking questions in churches and mosques, asked to donate 10 percent of their hard earned income to a sky daddy who doesn't need it promising you eternal life which those religious leaders themselves know is bullshiit.

True! I believe that the problem wiyh the human race is the inability to address our intellectual and moral failing. Politics, racism, classism, religion etc. are all manifestations of our intellectual and moral failing.

What we are referring to as Religion today was a way of life of some certain people of certain region at a certain time.
They were propagated to the world by form of written documents, fear and force.
Today's revelations through technology has moved the understanding of people from yesterday where nobody really have time and courage to think different from what was taught by teachers, clergymen and parents.
Technology has done far better than religions.
Religion is to the limitation of human mind while technology is an openner

They're both leading humanity to oblivion.

Religion on one hand is a tool used to dumb humans down and keep them like sheeps from using their brains...

Technology, which was created to create means to make life easier for humanity has been hijacked by the capitalists to make profits.....


Either way, they're both constructs used to divert and take our minds away from the fact that life is empty and meaningless.. ..

Who has caused more harm?.... I look at the crusaders, look at Islam and how they Continue to perpetuate genocide against non-Muslims...

But then I look at atomic bombs.... Why do we make atomic bombs? Russia, North Korea has enough nuclear bombs to wipe everyone off the planet... Why?...

I think technology has done more harm than good.

Even With GPS your actions and locations can be accurately recorded and monitored, so what is surprising if we believe God is all-knowing?
If you build your own home I believe you will have laws and regulations for your children to follow?
So what is wrong if God prescribe his own set rules?

When something bad happens to a believer, it is the will of God. When something bad happens to an unbeliever, it is God's punishment to show case its existence and supremacy.
