i do not understand how religion still exsists in our partially modern world

im sure the people that "believe" in religions know its made up things to make people do things that arent humane for some made up "god" that only "loves" the ones that believe in him

i must admit the extreme islamists are the worst from all religios people.

i dont remember any modern occorunces where a christian kills a bunch of people by blowing himself up to get a "treat" in the "afterlife"

someone explain me how intelligent beings like humans still fall for this shit

87% of the wars are thanks to religion

It's basically an education gap.

You have the first world educated>Lower uneducated class > third world.

Once everyone gets to the educated part, religion will go away.

Islam is bad and Islam is evilish that's why it is the fastest growing religion in the world and highest joining rate.
Do you know that by 2030, Muslims will make up more than a quarter of the global population ?

The term Third World arose during the Cold War to define countries that remained non-aligned with either NATO (with the United States, Western European nations and their allies representing the First World), or the Communist Bloc (with the Soviet Union, China, Cuba, and their allies representing the Second World).

Sorry but your argument is wrong. Europe had 44 million Muslims in 2010. In USA, there is more than 20.0000 converts to Islam every year.
Also, according to the New York Times, an estimated 25 percent of American Muslims are converts.

So your argument is that anything is good as long as there is a big enough population following it?

Surely you understand how stupid that is.....right? I don't need to point this out again.......right?

Europe - countries - and USA are first world countries according to the cold war which is even wrong because the NATO (allies) were defined as first world countries and the Communist were defined as second world countries and the other countries were defined as third world countries. Let's get to my point, if European countries and USA are the first world countries, there is HUGE converts to Islam in USA and Europe.
Ha?

I'm sleepy as fuck so if there is any wrong typo excuse me.

The number of converts has nothing to do with the subject and is a red herring argument. "See this totally unrelated stat? THIS MEANS MY POINT IS RIGHT".

I'm saying it's an educational issue, the number of converts has nothing to do with conversion rates.

I said that many people that is high educated - in first world countries - are converting to religions.. Means it isn't an educational issue...

Am I wrong?

Organized religion may fade some day, but religion itself, as in someones personal beliefs, never.

that kind doesnt hurt anyone...but noone believes in something alone.

beliving in a huge not human thing that controls your intentions etc would put you in a psychic facillity or whatever if you were the only one to believe in it

I don't think you quite understand what I'm saying. A person can believe in the afterlife, spirituality, etc, and not be part of an organized religion. I can believe in the Christian God, but not the bible. See what I'm getting at? What I meant when I said that was that maybe in the future, there won't be set rules, book, or place that people gather where they all follow that one thing. But there will always be religious people. People that believe in the afterlife, in a higher power, in spirituality.

Well.. Yes, you are wrong.

There is no correlation between higher education and converting to islam.

There is however a correlation between higher education and becoming an atheist/agnostic.

No, there is.
Also I'm not talking about Islam only I'm talking about religions as general.

Well here's an easy way to solve this:

Prove it.

My thoughts: Of course there isn't a correlation between Islam and education, most of Islam's population is in third world countries with horrible education systems.

The people who generally convert to Islam are doing it for :
A) Attention
B) Stupidity, they'll convert to anything that someone tells them is "true"
C)Re-conversion, people who were already muslims convert back.
