I get suspicious when we agree too much. It ain’t natural.

I think most of us on this website can agree that religions are man made and gods don’t exist.

Well this planet orbits the Sun once every approx. 365 and 1 quarter days, it rotates on its axis once every approximately 24 hours thus giving the impression that the Sun rises and sets which is 100% a false impression btw.
Religions are approx. 1% fiction and 99% Bullshit, humans breed by sexual means, they eat, breath, breed and die.
So how is that for something we can ALL agree upon for starters?

I think there's a lot of reasons for our current divisiveness in this country. I'm not sure if there's any single thing that everyone can agree on because some people aren't mentally well. As for the most important things... like murder is wrong, children should be protected, rape is wrong, slavery is wrong, etc... there are people, cultures, and religions who have very different ideas on these things.

I honestly can't think of anything that I'd believe that everyone would agree on. There are some horrible people in this world... people who would eagerly kill themselves to murder a thousand more, people who would eagerly enslave and rape for power and profit.

So yea... I can't help you on this. I can't think of anything we'd all agree on.

Nah, where's the fun in that.

Seems like over the past 5 years ( longer I’m sure but more so recently), we have lost the art of getting along. Somehow we got to the point that any opposing opinion creates a mortal enemy. Focus has shifted from seeking commonality to highlighting differences. I credit trump for this negative shift, at least he greatly popularized divisiveness.

Ohferpetessake.

My view is simple. The religious cannot agree on anything and that is why we have so many religions. Now take away the religion and you want to think agnostics or atheists could agree. Reality is that the most they can agree on is religious belief. Beyond that we are all just people with opinions.

Can we all agree that any belief that is not supported by scientifically verifiable evidence is merely a belief no matter the duration of such belief?

We can agree to disagree, not as a point of etiquette but that vicious combat of views creates ideas as surely as natural selection drives the origin of species.

Quixotic and pointless.

Well, I would agree with everyone that says everybody is different from one another and it's impossible to agree on everything. Does anyone else see things this way?

I would say that many would agree that your choice of entertainment 1 hour and 21 minutes of "A Dialogue About Ayn Rand and God" is beyond belief. I would like to thank my parents, Ayn Rand and god is a useful example of where to put a comma.

Getting people to agree on personal ideals is worse than trying to herd cats. Narcissists are psychologically incapable of agreeing to the notion of helping people who are less fortunate than themselves.

probably not
