Do you believe in a higher power?

[Jhaalu]

Short answer is no i dont believe in a higher power because simply there isnt one. Why i dont is this.
If religion didn't exsist the world would be A much better place. The ONLY thing religion does is cause millions of people to die every year because they got murdered by someone of a different faith. Religion is just abunch of superstition that is going to be the downfall of mankind. I just hope the masses will open there eyes before its to late.

Even though i'm an atheist, i'd say religion has done alot more good than bad.

I dont get why people think science is the counter to religion. They can work hand in hand just as well as against each other in my eyes.

Too many people treat science as a religion these days. Rather than keep questionning the facts that are presented to them(which is the essence of science), people tend to just accept every scientific proposition as irrefutable fact.

I really doubt it. Not until science has proven god, and everyone is happy with the proof. Thats what science is about :/

did god think the whole world speaks arabic before giving it?

no, he should have gave it to Mohammad in Chinese, srsly tho, there are scholars to Islam all over the world now and its the fastest growing religion so he clearly didn't do it wrong

That's utter rubbish. No one does that and no one treats science as a religious because they are diametrically opposed, two entirely different things. Religious is based on faith which is belief without evidence, Science is belief based on evidence.

Its simple really. Look to god as the answer to unanswerable questions, use science for everything else.
