My understanding is that theists in the main generally rejected the latest advances in science and were its greatest impediment throughout history. Regardless, until you can muster up a cogent argument rather than just a few stray cats, I will have to refrain from responding in a more meaningful way. As for the "freedoms" to which you refer, does not the bible endorse slavery?

The "more and more people" are the same type of people who watch American Idol, vote for George Bush, etc.
These people are not actually thinkers of any depth or sophistication, they are just former Christians or Jews who have rejected the human writings they have read known as the Bible...thinking moronically that the Bible in its present form is the only religion known to mankind. Westerners are so bloody self absorbed, thinking religions revolved around their own culture.
Your argument, if it can even be called that, is the spin of a silly child...

Define existence first...
No, you can't use the word exist in your definition, or refer to "that which exists."
After you have made a mess of that, then try to define experience...

If you take any belief system and add about 20 million people into the system in 20 years the average member will be less educated. For some reason you argue that these 20 million new people have negatively affected pure science. I'm curious, could you provide a few examples of some top science organizations and departments that have been negatively affected by a larger uneducated mass of people converting to atheism, because for some reason I can't find any.
The truth of the matter is that this uneducated mass has no impact on pure science, unless of course you have some data to show me, which I highly doubt.
And well you should. You're a true gent.Quote from NeoRio1:
I will definitely make sure to watch out for your comfort and sensitive nature when addressing someone elses post next time.
EDIT: I just now looked at a couple of your earlier posts in this thread. Perhaps I misunderstood your position and unintentionally extracted your quote out of context. These things happen. It seems I inadvertently mistook you for a True Believer when I glanced at your post from which I quoted. My apologies. (In this singular instance, of course. Your political views have yet to evolve, and have an long and arduous way to go.
)I'd being willing to bet every cent I make from now until I die that the principles of Intelligent Design will eventually be adopted and supercede much of what Darwin concluded. Although, it may be after I die when this is accepted. Darwinism is a mental ghetto. (or gulag if you prefer)
Ready for the fight about what "Intelligent" means ...
