I know this is a off topic dissuasion board but i think its funny people go over board on the arguments. Its **** gamespot, not c-span. This is the site that gave a game you kill pimps and prostitues a 10/10.

Because Religion = Law= Government.

They are one and the same. Foolish people use trickery to fool everyone into an illusion that there is a separation.

Because people who are religious or athiest are quite passionate about it which creates interesting conversation.

You post in a thread about it, you care. You don't get to say "we", you only speak for yourself.

Because we are in the "off-topic" section, where the rules state we are to discuss anything NOT related to gaming. And Grand Theft Auto IV is a great game.

This thread encomposses more than just believing not believing in god, secondly I will use the term "we" as I like. If I want to speak on behalf of you I will and you will like it.

Yes, and they try their damndest to impose said *ahem* "morals" and beliefs on the rest of us through the law. Which creates a struggle that permeates every single bit of our day to day interactions.

I'll explain it for you TC. Gamespot = Gaming-Related Website Off Topic = Everything that is not gaming related. Religious Beliefs/Morals = Not gaming related. Not Gaming Related = Off Topic.

Because this is a forum for discussion of things outside of game. If you dont like the discussion, dont go in that thread. Simple as that.

I talk about religion here because it's what I like to talk about. However, I am not a fan of arguing.
