I agree with your complaints, and many other complaints. Christianity is flawed. But the fact remains that in some situations it helps people, and we should respect that. It's not like any of our traditions are without flaws, and it's not l

Oh certainly, I agree. However, the lack of (non-awful) explicit, atheistic writing on morality is still an important problem, and helps religious people get away with denying atheists can be moral. If you are moral, but can't explain why,

Ugh I hate that. I got marked down a letter grade on a math test once for not showing enough intermediate steps even though my answers were correct. I also once got an answer marked wrong because the teacher couldn't understand my intermedi

Bayesian Inference does not explain how new knowledge is created.

If you read Hume or Popper you will see that inductive reasoning is logically impossible, and therefore can't actually be what people do.

Off-topic discussion makes that thread bad evidence to cite to prove it is hacker-related news.
