Ramadan: Concrete Evidence that religion is man made.

(1/3) > >>

morbidenigma:
Ramadan tells us that god gave us a directive to fast from sunrise to sunset.

Religion tells us 'god made everything'. There's many places on Earth ie scandanavian countries, where in the summer there is sunlight 22-24 hours of the day and in winter darkness for 22-24 hours of the day. So why would god give the instruction to us to fast from 'sunset' to 'sunrise' if he knows in parts of the world he has created that there is no 'sunrise' and 'sunset' ? clearly its an instruction from a man in the middle of a desert who would not have that knowledge at the time.

The Overfiend:
Word.

The Overfiend:
Human-beings need dogma and ritual though. Everybody needs something to believe in. It is one thing to accept something intellectually, but to accept the same thing emotionally is an entirely different matter.

There is nothing wrong with belief, dogma and ritual. Provided it is not based on ideas and actions which go completely against human nature. Like the suppression of sexuality, rationality, etc

Triple OG Rapsodie:
useless post. There's a million reasons religion is man made, but none of them are ever going to be concrete enough to convince someone who believes. Religion is based on faith, not logic.

lol

this problem is very simple to handle, because it says when you have problems like this u just do it like the time im mecca. so for people who live in ares wheres no real sunset or it is too much, like 20 hours without drinkting u take the sunsettings time from mecca.
