from B2, the pepperoni vs cheese pizza debate ... the obvious answer is Pepperoni... logic inside ... - i'm not Kris Kringle yet ! Dec 16, 10:14 11
- this correct. -- nm - Remlik Dec 16, 10:20 1
  - bizarro remlik? -- nm - mr. squiggles at 30,000 feet Dec 16, 10:37
- EPIC FAIL -- nm - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 16, 10:19
- Yeah but you'd still have the stench of pepperoni tainting the lovely cheese after you take it off. -- nm - Loyola Dec 16, 10:17
- But less grease. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 16, 10:15 3
  - Doesn't this depend on the quality of the pepperoni? Or are you being health-conscious? - con_Kringle Dec 16, 10:20 2
    - I don't think I've ever had a pizza with pepperoni that wasn't "greasier" than the plain cheese. - JaxSean Dec 16, 10:28 1
      - See, you're talking about that like it's a bad thing. :) -- nm - con_Kringle Dec 16, 10:30
- but if you take off the pepperoni... - znufrii Dec 16, 10:15 1
  - "spicy meat juice" isn't exactly the gayest thing you've said today, IIRC -- nm - Beryllium Dec 16, 10:16
- but the pepperoni has touched the cheese and left parts of itself behind. -- nm - b.festive. Dec 16, 10:15

      - (like, the music and the architecture has been pretty good) -- nm - Reagen Dec 16, 10:32 13
        
        The charity? The community leadership in general if not on some specific issues? The general sense of instilling of good values? -- nm - Name Withheld By Request Dec 16, 10:34 12
        
        None of those are religion-specific. I'm atheist but I give to charity, am a leader in my community and try to instill good values in my children and - JaxSean Dec 16, 10:35 6
        
        You don't need religion, but organized religion *is* directly responsible for much good in the world and that shouldn't be ignored. - Name Withheld By Request Dec 16, 10:39 2
        
        Just because they do good doesn't mean that if religion "went away" that good would go away as well. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 16, 10:42
        
        [deleted]
        
        I don't think anyone is claiming religions have a monopoly on charity, or that they invented them. - Inigo Dec 16, 10:38 2
        
        why do you assume the individual efforts would go away? -- nm - znufrii Dec 16, 10:39 1
        
        A lot of soup kitchens are funded by religious organizations. - Inigo Dec 16, 10:41
        
        strictly speaking, you don't *need* religion for any of those things to happen. -- nm - znufrii Dec 16, 10:35 4
        
        You should invent something that will do that. - Let it Spawn, let it Spawn, let it Spawn! Dec 16, 10:36
        
        You don't need religion to happen for any of the bad stuff either -- nm - Roger More Dec 16, 10:36 2
        
        nor does religion neccesarily prevent the bad stuff from happening. -- nm - Reagen Dec 16, 10:39 1
        
        Sure - sometimes it helps prevent it, other times (unfortunately) it helps encourage it -- nm - Roger More Dec 16, 10:40
      - 90% of fines are religious? -- nm - Beryllium Dec 16, 10:28 2

  - Charity would suffer badly. -- nm - con_Kringle Dec 16, 10:22
  - For the people whose religion is a major part of their lives, they'd be pretty bad off. -- nm - Inigo Dec 16, 10:19
  - It's A Wonderful Atheist Life -- nm - Frank Capra Dec 16, 10:14 4
    - I didn't say "belief in God". I think it's quite possible to be a theist and not be religious. -- nm - TWuG Dec 16, 10:16 3
      - Surely you can't expect to type what you typed and expect people not to take it that way. -- nm - nubby Dec 16, 10:24
      - it's like Big-R and Little-r religion ... -- nm - Beryllium Dec 16, 10:20 1

  - We'd have no morals and it would be nonstop sex sex sex. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 16, 10:13 4
    - so we wouldn't be bad off at all, you're saying? -- nm - b.festive. Dec 16, 10:14 3
      - We'd explode when we all orgasm'd at the same time. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 16, 10:33 2

    - It's easy if you try. -- nm - JaxSean Dec 16, 10:13 1
      - *nice* -- nm - con_Kringle Dec 16, 10:16
  - not all religions, just the bad sh!t. -- nm - znufrii Dec 16, 10:12 11
    - If all the religions just up and disappeared one day, there would be a lot of people left with nothing better to do than scratch their ass and screw. - Beryllium Dec 16, 10:14 10
      - if all the world's religions disappeared, it would be human nature to create new religions to replace them. -- nm - znufrii Dec 16, 10:17 9
        
        but we would be left with *science*. -- nm - Beryllium Dec 16, 10:18 7
        
        And science has developed theories that religion is part of human nature -- nm - Roger More Dec 16, 10:20
        
        and still, science is limited by our ability to perceive the universe. As long as our minds can conceive of something outside of that, there will be - znufrii Dec 16, 10:20
        
        (And I guess scientology would be left behind in this religulous rapture ... being a giant con, and not a real religion ...) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 16, 10:19 4
        
        scientology is the perfect example of what we would come up with. - znufrii Dec 16, 10:27 3
        
        I was thinking more of Populous-levels of pagan idol worship, to start with, but sure. :) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 16, 10:28 2
        
        (Also, the Church of Oprah and the Church of Star Trek) -- nm - Beryllium Dec 16, 10:28 1
        
        you've hit the nail on the head precisely. - znufrii Dec 16, 10:31
