I wonder if this topic will attract the 1,000+ views per day which were a feature of the Ten Pet Hates ?.
Within 30 days there were more than 32,000 views.
Thereafter, as soon as this fact was mentioned 3/11/2014, the views took a sudden downturn and have dwindled to less than 100 per day.
Actual replies are currently 186.
Of these Miltiades submitted (as he is the source) 80.
Greek Island Girl. 25.
Kurupetos. 21.
Paphitis. 17.
Repulsewarrior. 7.
Get Real, Myself and Cap 5 each. 15.
10 other members between them. 21.

Therefore,it would appear that out of more than 32,000 visits, only 17 members made a reply?.
Since the average amount of members and guests on line were about 40 per day (which is still the case) how could 32,000 views be recorded over 30 days ?.

The most viewed topic since 2007 ?, easily done if records are the target, but quite sad.

Ha! Milti’s favorite topic is… HIMSELF, so I wouldn’t be surprised if 31,000 of those views were his own! :roll: :lol:

The brainless old geezer actually thinks he is interesting and worthy of discussion! :lol:

It could be robots as the title of the thread could resonate.

The Internet is a very weird virtual place.

Religion's contribution to human advancement, be it technological, medical, social, or peace on earth. Religious wars , conflicts, hatred have existed for thousands of years, exacerbated by false beliefs in a non existent creator.

Convince those of us who have seen the light that religion contributes to the well being of the human race.

Religious people, such as the psychopath, are delusional, cruel, spiteful and full of hate for their fellow humans.

Name just one tangible benefit, I don't mean hope, but a tangible benefit the human race has attained from religion.

The answer is NONE. Prove me wrong.



Of the many thousands, HUMILITY might be the first step towards understanding the rest.

I thought I already mentioned that you’ve got one foot in the grave so you’ll find out very soon.

And besides, your relatives will turn to God to contemplate your passing at your funeral, although I’d advise them not to waste their time and speak directly to Lucifer. :lol:

Im glad you are, and I thank you for showing .....great interest you god fearing ...Plonker ! :lol:




I am not surprised at your nonsense about Swassssseniger and your enthusiasm to insult my name, both traits are well documented in most of your posts.
Your counterpart seems equally eager to join you and I am not quite sure what his point is, no doubt the passage of time will reveal all as you do seem to latch on to anyone who shares your opinions, regardless of the subject.
As to my interest in your posts, you seem to portray two personalities and I feel you may be deluding yourself, that's all.

[quote="Paphitis
May I ask what it is exactly that has sparked your interest with the poster? I don't believe you have a need to research him but nonetheless it should be the material he posts that interests you and not the person![/quote]

Initially, the title of his post.
Secondly, the content, which seemed to be in contrast to so many of his previous posts.
Thirdly, fact that this post (unlike others) was not brim full of insults and obscene language, I wondered why.

I will take up the other side of the debate but I think it is flawed: you can call me a dreamer if you like.

What you are trying to say is that religion has not contributed to technology, medicine and the sciences which of course, you are right. Religion is religion, science is science, they are different subjects. A scientist can be Christian, A computer programmer can be Muslim or Hindu, a priest is a Christian. Of course, a priest is probably not going to discover and create a vaccine for the Ebola virus but a medical researcher could and he could be a Christian.

Further more, religion is not tangible, it is spiritual.

Everyone is free to post what they want.

It sounds like you have a personal gripe.
