However, who has not hung on a scripture, a quote, a statement, only to stumble upon the key phrase that brought all things to a turning point? The greatest sermons and speeches were pieced together by illuminating thoughts that powered men to surpass their own commonness. It is the sparkling magic of letters forming words, and those words colliding with passion, that makes statements into wisdom.","author":"Shannon L.

I don't see any difference between both of them, we didn't see neither the dragons nor afterlife, we just heard about them and both of them are superstitions with no scientific or logical evidence .. But the only reason you believe in afterlife unlike dragons is that you've been taught to believe in it from your birthday. Now if they taught you to believe in dragons and if it were mentioned in your Bible or your holy book you would have believed in it .. Herein lies the danger of religions, you can believe something exists without any evidence .. And that's why you should only follow science and let go of your religious teachings.","author":"Sherif Gaber","tags":["afterlife","atheism","atheists","belief","bible","difference","dragons","religious-teachings","science","scientific-evidence","superstitions","think","thinkers"],"id":24638,"author_id":"Sherif+Gaber"},{"text":"I had to make a choice, either take care of my family and become a good son, or be a bad son and start working towards constructing a world of harmony and peace.
