Default Re: POLL---Who is more Reasonable

I said that people who believed in a god were more reasonable, at least socially. If you are raised with a religion, you generally accept those religious beliefs. That's perfectly reasonable.

As far as being more guided by logic and reason, it's conjecture either way until we die or can communicate with the dead.

Regardless of everything said in this forum, most people want a comfortable life, to keep what they gain, and prefer being alive over dead despite the hope of an eternal afterlife in heaven and work towards fulfilling earthly goals. If believing in heaven and god help offset fear of death and prevent you from becoming a basket case who can find no purpose to the universe without a god, believing is certainly reasonable.

Individual capacity has everything to do with what's reasonable.
