RESPOND TO THE ‘BLIND FAITH’ ACCUSATION OF AN ANTI-RELIGION ATHEIST

excalibur7676 • 15 hours ago

Talk about extreme fanaticism. This is what the early settlers taught the filipino people when they were here. They convince the inhabitants of every island to have fear in one being and no one else. Really. To say that they have been practicing their religion thru “blind faith” is an understatement. Religion only tells you the things they want you to hear and believe. The stuff that a whole bunch of people under the influence of a much higher grade of weeds come up with an idea to put their hallucinations into a book. Someone found that book and thought that it was written by a very intelligent person on earth. You don’t say! One example for debate; how can a guy managed to fit all living animals in pairs of opposite sexes in a single boat? You’re gonna need a boat three times the size of the state of michigan to have them all in a boat.

[Talk about extreme fanaticism.]

THAT IS NOT EXTREME FANATICISM BUT ARDENT DEVOTION. THAT IS A VERY INTENSE EXPRESSION OF LOVE TO THE PERSON OF THE MOTHER OF JESUS, THE BLESSED VIRGIN MARY.

[This is what the early settlers taught the filipino people when they were here.]

IF YOU ARE NOT IGNORANT OF HISTORY THERE WERE NO FILIPINOS YET THAT TIME BUT MERE PAGAN TRIBES. Religion brought us to scientific advancement and great learning in Education. Almost all of great Universities started from Catholic and Christian influence. On the contrary the Atheists and those with no religion are the most stupid ones. Look at the Communists. They are atheistic and they enslaved people.

THE EARLY CATHOLIC MISSIONARIES BROUGHT THEM SCHOOLS, COLLEGES, UNIVERSITIES, ADVANCED SYSTEM AND WRITING… FAITH, SCIENCE, TECHNOLOGY, ENGINEERING, ARCHITECTURE, MUSIC, ARTS, LITERATURE… IN SHORT: ADVANCED CIVILIZATION. IF YOU HATE WHAT THEY HAVE GIVEN THEN WEAR YOUR ‘BAHAG’ UNTIL NOW. YOU DESERVE TO REMAIN IN IGNORANCE.

[They convince the inhabitants of every island to have fear in one being and no one else.]

THIS IS PLAIN STUPID. DON’T TELL ME THAT BEFORE THE COMING OF THOSE SETTLES THERE WERE NO FEARS AMONG THOSE TRIBESMEN. THEY WERE AFRAID OF STORMS, LIGHTNINGS, EARTHQUAKES, THEY WERE AFRAID OF DEATH, PLAGUES, ETC. WITH OUR WITHOUT FAITH IN GOD HUMAN PERSONS HAVE FEARS. IT IS PLAIN STUPIDITY TO CLAIM THAT THEY TEACH THE SETTLES TO FEAR ON BEING AND NO ONE ELSE. THEY INSTEAD TAUGHT THEM TO LOVE THE SUPREME BEING ABOVE ALL ELSE AND TO SHARE THAT LOVE TO OTHERS BECAUSE THEY TOO WERE CREATED BY THAT SAME SUPREME BEING.

[Really. To say that they have been practicing their religion thru "blind faith" is an understatement.]

REALLY, YOUR STUPIDITY IS TRULY BLIND. OUR FOREFATHERS BECAME CATHOLIC BECAUSE THEY WERE WISE ENOUGH TO SEE THE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY AND THE BRILLIANCE OF REASON PRESENTED TO THEM BY THE EARLY MISSIONARIES. EVEN IN CHINA THE ROYAL COURT OF CHINA WERE SO SURPRISED WHEN MATEO RICCI AND THE JESUIT MISSIONARIES SHOWED THEM THE SCIENCE AND TECHNOLOGY OF THE WEST WHICH THE CATHOLIC MONKS AND SCHOLARS INVENTED, DEVELOPED, DISCOVERED OR PRODUCED IN EUROPE. DON’T TELL US THAT WE ARE BLIND. OUR CATHOLIC SCHOOLS PRODUCES THE BEST OF THE BEST DOCTORS AND NURSES, PROFESSORS AND ARTISTS IN THIS COUNTRY AND ALL OVER THE WORLD. WE ARE NOT CHAMPION OF EDUCATION FOR NOTHING. ONLY IDIOTS LIKE YOU DENIES THE GREATNESS OF OUR SCIENTIFIC CONTRIBUTIONS TO THE WORLD.

[Religion only tells you the things they want you to hear and believe.]

MAY BE YOUR OWN RELIGION OR THE RELIGION YOU HAVE INSIDE YOUR LYING MIND. OUR RELIGION IS ASKING US TO SEEK THE TRUTH, TO STUDY SCIENCES, TO ASPIRE FOR GREATER HEIGHT OF KNOWLEDGE IN VARIOUS FIELD OF SCIENCES AND EDUCATION. WE ENCOURAGE OUR STUDENTS TO STUDY AND LEARN. WE INSPIRE THEM TO BE THE BEST DOCTORS, LAWYERS, ENGINEERS, TEACHERS AND SCHOLARS. THAT IS THE REASON WHY WE ARE NOT AS STUPID AS YOU. HA HA HA…

[The stuff that a whole bunch of people under the influence of a much higher grade of weeds come up with an idea to put their hallucinations into a book.]

ONLY INTELLIGENT BEINGS CAN WRITE A BOOK. IT TOOK CENTURIES FOR HUMAN BEINGS TO START WRITING A BOOK. YOU DO NOT APPRECIATE IT BECAUSE YOUR MIND IS TOO NARROW TO RECEIVE THE TRUTH. IN FILIPINO: “YOUR BRAIN IS AS BIG AS WEEDS”. THE BOOKS WE HAVE WRITTEN IS CALLED LITERATURE. OUR BIBLE IS NOT A PRODUCT OF HALLUCINATIONS BUT A WRITTEN TESTIMONY OF OUR FOREFATHERS WHO ARE MORE INTELLIGENT THAN YOURS WHO WERE NOT ABLE TO PRODUCE A BOOK. WE ALSO INVENTED THE PRINTING PRESS AND THE FIRST BOOK EVER PRINTED WAS OUR CATHOLIC BIBLE. THAT IS ANOTHER PROOF THAT OUR CATHOLIC FOREFATHERS ARE MORE INTELLIGENT THAN YOURS. HA HA HA…

[Someone found that book and thought that it was written by a very intelligent person on earth.]

OUR FOREFATHERS AND WE OURSELVES READ THAT BOOK. WE ALSO READ OTHER BOOKS AND AFTER READING WE WERE CONVINCED THAT THE BOOK IS REALLY THE ONE THAT CONTAINED THE TRUTH. UNFORTUNATELY YOU ARE TOO LAZY TO STUDY SO YOU CANNOT READ. SINCE YOU CANNOT READ YOU HATE THE BOOK. NOW YOU WANT TO IMPOSE ON US YOUR OWN STUPIDITY.

[You don't say! One example for debate; how can a guy managed to fit all living animals in pairs of opposite sexes in a single boat? You're gonna need a boat three times the size of the state of michigan to have them all in a boat.]

HA HA HA… YOU ARE INDEED OUT OF YOUR MIND. FIRST AND FOREMOST, YOU SHOULD USE YOUR BRAIN. TODAY, DUE TO DISCOVERIES DONE BY MANY SCIENTISTS WE KNOW THAT THERE ARE SO MANY FORMS OF ANIMALS. BUT DURING THOSE TIMES THEY KNOW A FEW. NOAH DOESN’T HAVE THE LIST OF ANIMALS IN ENCYCLOPEDIA BRITTANICA. HE WAS ONLY THINKING OF THOSE HE HAD SEEN AND KNOWN AROUND HIS GEOGRAPHICAL AREA. YOUR MISTAKE IS THAT YOU ARE IMPOSING ON THE STORY YOUR OWN MODERN WAY OF THINKING WITH THE SITUATION OF THE PEOPLE OF THAT TIME. IN FILIPINO: “YOU ARE OUT OF CONTEXT” AND “OUT OF TOUCH WITH REALITY”. THE BOOK OF GENESIS IS NOT A MODERN BOOK OF SCIENCE BUT A BOOK OF FAITH OF SIMPLE PEOPLE OF ANCIENT TIMES. SO THE STUPIDITY IS ON YOUR PART. INSTEAD OF APPRECIATING THE NARRATION PROPER FOR THE WAY OF THINKING OF THOSE TIMES YOU ARE IMPOSING YOUR OWN MODERN BIAS. IT’S LIKE ATTACKING THE PEOPLE OF FIRST CENTURY EGYPT FOR RIDING A CAMEL INSTEAD OF A BULLET TRAIN MADE IN JAPAN. HA HA HA…

If you are referring to Harvard, Yale, etc., the Catholics had nothing to do with those.
