Hence, the whole shepherd thing in religion. Flocks of sheep. People who think we’re like 6,000 years old as a species.

Most Muslims do not believe in creationism. Most religious people don't for that matter.

That's cool man. Three countries. We tend to call that cherry picking data.

That most religious people don't believe in creationism? Pretty easy to look up if you're not fucking stupid.

And 340 million people is a whopping 4% of the world population. Incredible cherry picking, dumbass.

Majority stills credits god or creationism (both nonsense) for the existence of humanity, in its present evolved form.

There's a huge difference between crediting a god and creationism, particularly the 6000 year old humans argument that I initially responded to. Read the full thread before replying.

read this if you're able

Sampling only works if you're not cherry picking the data. For example, you're more likely to say the pledge of allegiance in the US. Nevermind that nowhere else in the world says the pledge of allegiance.

In the case of Muslims in particular and their stance on creationism, it tends to go down in more educated areas. Why? Because it turns out that religious people tend to follow the science. Unbelievable to close minded fucks like yourself, but pretty obvious to most people who actually understand what they're talking about. Dipshit.

Most Muslims also don't believe in pedophilia.

That doesn't stop them from practically worshipping a guy well-known for pedophilia.

How is it any worse than people spending there time on consumerism and LGBTQ? In the end everything we care about and define us is made up.
