Welcome Rune,

For the most part, we are a group of rational individuals who hold no belief in a god.   

The topics of discussion on this BBS run from religion, to politics, to science, and more.
Please post and respond to the various conversations that appeal to you.  There is no
opinion worth more than any other; likewise, no conversation has more value than
any other on this BBS.  So, post away and enjoy your stay!

Kind regards,
Casey

Welcome aboard Rune.


Quote:
For the largest part of my life i have considerd myself to be an atheist, but a few years back i came to the conclution, that to persume to know the existanse or non existanse of god is arrogant and bars the way for an open discussion with those who DO believe in god (taking the middle ground sometimes helps not turning a discussion into an argument). I acsept that I don't know if there is a god and if there is I don't know what he/she/it is.

My own view has been that while agnosticism is the most logical position, this should not be construed as preventing one from assigning a probability valye to the idea of god. As I consider that value to be small, I suppose I am closest to atheism, and perhaps remain an agnostic by default (as there is that minsicule Popperian possibility that god's existence could be demonstrated).


Quote:
In 1998 I was drafted for the danish army I wolunteerd for service in Bosnia in 1999 and for Kossovo in 2001. Spending time in the middle of theese religious wars has left me overflowing with contempt for organised religion.

Could you possibly elaborate on this? We speak a great deal here of how religion tends to exacerbate such conflicts, but few of us have witnessed such events first hand.
