    having children with someone who is not the same "race" as you is actually very beneficial for the children you are having. less prone to diseases and medical issues actually.

    Are you suggesting people like Obama.....surgeons, Drs, scientist, and on and on. or that the pool of non believer's ( 20%).......

    “Religion” definitely seems to be on the decline. Despite that, the vast majority of Canadians....

    agreed. religion is a distraction and another way to divide people.

    basically every religion has blood on its hands from some time closer or farther in the past.

    all religions are cults at heart.
    cult

    noun
    a system of religious veneration and devotion directed toward a particular figure or object.

    Religion is a set of rules, spirituality is different. Religion is the cause of mass murders and the brainwashing of people throughout history, spiritually is your personally connection to the world around you in your own personal way.

    I am suggesting that the high end people in the sciences are in the pool of the 20%, even if they go to church to appease their friends and family.

    A lot of people from Asia are ( a bazillion people) are Bhuddist. Hindus, Sikhs. Muslims. I’m willing to bet quite a few would be Dr, GPS, Surgeons. Israel????

    https://www.scientificamerican.com/a...hysicist-says/

    Pretty some famous scientist were Jewish.
    I’ll leave with it the words of Stephen Hawking. Regarded as the greatest physicist ever

    I believe that the discovery of these laws has been humankind’s greatest achievement, for it’s these laws of nature — as we now call them — that will tell us whether we need a god to explain the universe at all. The laws of nature are a description of how things actually work in the past, present and future. In tennis, the ball always goes exactly where they say it will. And there are many other laws at work here too. They govern everything that is going on, from how the energy of the shot is produced in the players’ muscles to the speed at which the grass grows beneath their feet. But what’s really important is that these physical laws, as well as being unchangeable, are universal. They apply not just to the flight of a ball, but to the motion of a planet, and everything else in the universe. Unlike laws made by humans, the laws of nature cannot be broken — that’s why they are so powerful and, when seen from a religious standpoint, controversial too.

    […]

    One could define God as the embodiment of the laws of nature. However, this is not what most people would think of as God. They mean a human-like being, with whom one can have a personal relationship. When you look at the vast size of the universe, and how insignificant and accidental human life is in it, that seems most implausible.

    I use the word “God” in an impersonal sense, like Einstein did, for the laws of nature, so knowing the mind of God is knowing the laws of nature. My prediction is that we will know the mind of God by the end of this century.

    I see the resident troll, and bigot is still at it.

    On double checking I see Obama has described himself a Christian ( not Muslim). “My bad”.

    So bigot, who preaches tolerance, has ripped Cons as intolerant racist, xenophobes. But has insulted a few million Muslims as well as Christians and many more in this thread...

    My comment stands. Obama describes himself as either religious or of faith.

    I just read a 700 page book on the man and I am sure nowhere in it he described himself as a Muslim. There are probably folk's "out there" who believe that Q wrote the book.

    Hey Fox - you don't like my posts I gather - well I got any easy solution - don't read my posts then you will not get all upset - relax - life is too short to get all worked up for nothing - meanwhile all is almost quiet on the southern front -
