    :thumbsup: However, note that Taliban != Religion.  Even (Religion) Taliban throws an InvalidCastException.  However, Debug.Assert (Taliban.GetType().Equals (typeof(Scumbags)); will succeed, /ravi

        Dear Religion, This week I safely dropped a human being from space; you shot a 14 year old girl in the head for wanting an education. Yours, Science.

          I know, so was my response. Although anyone who wishes to use religion as a tool of political will is dangerous.

              It is possible I assure you. Anyway too much religion is bound to end up in this thread going to the Soapbox.

                      This 'Humanitarian Aid' would include medicines I presume, and just how many of them are not created by scientists? And how does this aid get there? Angels or Aeroplanes?

                      ... and how much of this 'Humanitarian Aid' is used as a dogma loss-leader? "Have this aid, remember how awesome we are, now stop using condoms / tolerating homosexuals / educating girls." Andy B

                        Quite a generalization but I do see your point. Don't forget though, every day there is more humanitarian aid by religious people than science ever offers. Just saying.

                        There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

                                  Good points, but humanitarian aid by religious people did not start because of science making it easier and would still exist if science hadn't done any of that.

                                      Actually, medicine was as a result of Christianity*. I think its funny how people don't realize that Science was originally the desire of Christians to find out more about the world that God had created. It was only recently that people started to pervert the pursuit of Science with the pursuit of proving God doesn't exist. :) *To elaborate on this as a few have replied regarding this, I believe medicine has been expanded via Christian influences. In the end, medicine today would not be where it is without the positive influences that Christians had on it.

                                        Good points, but humanitarian aid by religious people did not start because of science making it easier and would still exist if science hadn't done any of that.

                                        There are only 10 types of people in the world, those who understand binary and those who don't.

                                        Tell me how humanitarian aid would exist without science?

                                          Are you suggesting people would not help other people without science?
