The thread went epic.
The basic ideology of religion teaches perspectives of good and evil is a posotive aspect the faults in the ideology (irony or paradox?) are in the fact that what is a grey area is pushed to a certainty with the use of morality. However the fabrics of society that define morality are constantly changing and thus an ideology as strict as religion becomes dangerous. Therefore either social advance goes or religion goes. Itsnot possible for both to exist together without everything becomeing a grey area and thus creating an arachcic system where religions battle each other about ideologies

Religion has been around since the dawn of thought, yet mankind continues to advance. Many great philosophers and scientists were religious and often reference the existence of God or at the very least an intelligent being of some sort of who have created our universe.
Humans are quite capable of adapting, and many can happily let religion and "reason" coexist in their minds without necessarily stunting their growth in either area. If anything, it is the people who swing too far in either direction (no religion, or no reason) that are the ones who hold humanity back.
If religion is indeed a form of self deception, then history has proven that it is a very necessary evil. As a species we like to believe that we are the highest form of life on our planet, if not in the entire universe with the exception of someone who may have created US. As the greatest beings, it is difficult for us to believe that all of our hard work and accomplishments are nothing more than tiny ripples in a cosmic ocean that will soon be washed away and forgotten entirely. Religion allows people to think that their work and their accomplishments may not just wind up being blasted back into their respective atoms when our sun goes nova, and therefore gives them some sense of a place in the universe.
But in the end what does this have to do with internet spaceships?
