Anti-gay pseudoscience

[Royal Tenenbaum]

"How is religion irrational? It has been a driving force behind philosophy and reason for centuries, from Muslim thinkers like Averroes to countless Christian philosophers who exploredo the depths of rational and reason.

Reason itself was in many ways pioneered by the religious, whether it is Christian or Pagan (Socrates believed that certainly there was a God, based on an intelligent design theory). "

If you would just think for a second, you would realize that they stopped reasoning. Religion was a way to rationalize the world for people centuries ago because they could only rely on superstition and uneducated guesses. Fortunately, we now have science to base our reasoning on and can make educated guesses based on evidence. What Socrates believed or the usefulness of religion to primative people is pointless. Certainly religion could be seen then as a way to rationalize a complex world (like, a God pulling the Sun on a huge chariot or something equally hilarious), but we don't need ignorant guessing when we can develop evidence through scientific methods. That's not saying that science is always right, but the beauty of it is it will admit its wrong unlike religion which is always right.
