    Digg.com is rather famous for being, I would go so far as to say, 85% athiest. And as such, there's a fair amount of religion bashing that goes on there. Most of it is just stupid, and the rest says 'Look at all the terrible things done in the name of religion. Therefore religion should be eliminated'. Everything, if taken or understood in the wrong way, can be twisted from it was originally supposed to do. Yes there are those who interprate the bible in the wrong way, and start spouting crazy things, but that's a small minority of Christians, and the rest of us shouldn't be judged according to them. Yes, there have been terrible things done in the name of religion, but that happens when the truth is distorted.

    Another thing that I can't stand, is when people take issues such as global warming and turn it into a moral issue. "You HAVE to support gobal warming otherwise God will hate you forever" seems to be a core thing said by a great many global warming fanatics. 

    Something that I aways like to think about is something that my Dad told me. "If you pursue something to try to find the ultimate truth, if it's true, it will point to God, be it science, history, math, economics." This was the view of the old scholars, and it's why they weren't afraid to pursue something like science. Some people today seem to think that science is an area that shouldn't be a career for themselves, because they're afraid it might contradict the existence or teaching of God, but it's not true. If it's true, it points to God. 

Well, there you have my philisophical blog of the month.
