True but it should. I know some religious people that really should read the words on their screen so it might open their minds a little bit to what's around them.

Although I won't lie, I don't like forcing my beliefs down someones throat. I just think it should be given more thought. :D

I agree... the discussion is getting old... does anyone have any experience with the SFML API?

Fine that is understandable, but I do want to defend myself still I will make a different article.And in some sections people were even moving to flaming.I will try to answer all questions asked.

however that is a bit vague ... you mean we are stupid? or we do not read or something?

I disagree. While it is not likely to happen, a well formed argument, or a few choice statements, could change a persons mind. It happens all the time.

*sigh*

You guys should stop...religious debate is completely seperate from the OP

Nah, Im to lazy.

I'm not calling religious people stupid and your a fool for getting defensive over nothing. I'm saying that a lot of religious people blindly follow there religion without second thoughts, even though it's against there religion ( 9 times out of 10 ) to do so. It's not my place to tell you what to believe in but I don't see why such a rather corrupt thing should be followed so blindly. That is MHO. If you don't like it, just leave it, I'm sick of people getting all hissy over it.

And to the SFML API: I have used it and it's enjoyable to use. It's simple and effecient and gives 2D OpenGL rendered graphics straight out of the package using C++ classes not to add a given alternative using a C API.

Many people are born into their parents religion. As stupid as it is, it is still hard to turn from anything that has been crammed down your throat at every turn sence b4 you were born.

Fuck that. You don't get much more indoctrinated than me: I was raised as a Catholic since I was born, but I still realized it was bullshit.
To me, anyone who doesn't question anything and everything they believe in isn't worthy of more respect than this computer I'm typing on.

That was the basis of my "humans are separated from animals by free will" argument.

I would have assumed that you were Catholic if I didn't know better; Hispanic people (not to generalize, but I have been to Spain many times, and they take their religion more seriously than any other country, including, apparently, Italy) tend to be very religious.

It's alright. It's hardly a generalization. Unless I was told incorrectly, and I don't feel like checking it, one of our presidents had to convert (or was it be baptized?) to assume his position. How fucked up is that?

That seems pretty ridiculous, yes, and is precisely why I don't like religions. They exert too much control and people think of them as too important.

Helios, its good that you have a brain and can think for your self. Most people don't. Its no wonder that christians refer to their followers as "sheep"

Since when???
