Rationalist groups focus just on religion which is wrong. I agree to this & they should focus on all

"From my opponent's comments I would argue that this is the only side of rationalists that he sees. He seems to be unaware of the incredible amount of work that rationalists publish dealing with claims such as UFOs, homeopathy, ghosts and ghost hunters, demons and exorcists, chiropractic medicine, ESP, therapeutic touch, alternative medicine, "all-natural" medicines, pseudo-history, reincarnation, anti-vaccinations, conspiracy theories, Atlantis, Illuminati, Jesus and Mary Magdalene had kids, auras, crypto-zoology, spiritual mediums, fortune tellers and astrologers, and so many more "Junk" science and history issues."All the above mentioned work of people who claim as rationalists are closely related to religion, especially UFOs. Has any person who claims to be a rationalist ever protested against accused who are wrongfully convicted for the crime which they never committed? This is the most sensitive issue as the wrongfully convicted person looses major portion of his or her life in prison for the crime he or she never committed and believing in religion may only make them do some acts like folding hands in Church or any religious place but does not make them loose a major portion of their lives in prison or cause death to them. Courts also function upon evidence to convict any accused, just like scientific experiments and research. Therefore, if they wrongfully convict any person on insufficient evidence, have you ever gone and protested against those convictions?Here is a case of wrongful conviction, in which two accused people were held not-guilty after he spent 28-29 years in prison for the crime they did not commit and one of them died in due course in the prison. ---> http://www.mirror.co.uk...And there is one more case of Andrew Mallard. You can enter his name in Google and find out that how he was also convicted for the crime he did not commit.Or I'll just paste it here and you can go through the link. ----> http://www.en.wikipedia.org...SO, DO YOU HAVE ANY EVIDENCE THAT ANY RATIONALIST GROUP 'EVER' PROTESTED AGAINST THESE WRONGFUL CONVICTIONS? ANY BLOG OF RATIONALIST GROUP OR A POST OR A WEBPAGE? OR ANY INTERVIEW EVER PROTESTING AGAINST WRONGFUL CONVICTIONS????? "I also disagree with my opponents comments that rationalists state their opinions "just to gain appraisal." I would argue that they are not doing this to be liked or to get famous, but rather to promote rational and logical thinking and the scientific method. They are not trying to get themselves famous, rather they are trying to get the scientific method famous. If they do come across as arrogant it may be because they are frustrated that anyone takes what they consider to be "hogwash" seriously.I would challenge my opponent to find five examples of a rationalist claiming "that they are the only people who are smarter than everyone."1.) Had they been a true rationalist, they would have protested against other irrational acts also, like someone buying items from a store without checking that the item is worth that amount or not. 2.) Here is a story of a person who claims to be a rationalist but has given up his duty of spreading rationalism just because there was a threat that he might be arrested when he claimed that statue of Jesus was dripping water was nothing but condensing and not weeping Jesus. He was charged as per Indian law for insulting someone's faith and religion and therefore he fled from India to Sweden fearing arrest, but in this way he also gave up his duty of protesting against religion and supersitions in India.Now, if this person really wanted to protest against religion, he would not have run away like a coward who is more interested in saving his reputation rather than protest against religion and spreading scientific thinking, which proves that he is concerned mainly of his reputation which includes his boastful nature of claiming that he is smarter than anyone else. Here is the story to that ---> 3.) In this video ----> , it is shown that the person who claims to be a rationalist challenged a hermit to kill him with his magical spells. However, in this blog, --> http://sathyasaibaba.wordpress.com... was proved that the entire TV reality show of this challenge was scripted and stage-managed. Now, it clearly shows that the person who claims to be a rationalist was trying to gain cheap publicity to gain attention and appriasal by which he could feel proud that he was the only smart guy in India. 4.) In this twitter account of a person who claims to be a rationalist, which he is not in reality, arrogantly stated that he is not ugly. Had he been a true rationalist and not claim that he is a rationalist just to satisfy his feelings of appriasal and pride from people by appriasing him that he is the only person who is smart, he would have been modest and asked for evidence for the accusation instead of arrogantly denying the accusation without giving his own counter-arguments. ---> https://twitter.com...5.) Here, in this link, this person claims to be an atheist for which he is 'proud' of. Had he been doing it for just spreading knowledge and true wisdom, he would have never been proud of of but rather stated that he is just using his common sense which anyone can use. Feeling of pride by that person indicates that he wants to gain appriasal by which he could feel arrogantly proud that he is the only one who is smarter than everyone. ----> www.meetup.com/Humanism-Atheism-Rationalism-Philosophy-HARP/messages/boards/thread/45717092 The rationalist is not trying to get you to accept science.Rationalists and scientists and historians have no problems with religion.Then why are many people who claim to be rationalist are atheists? Why have they not protested against axioms and postulates in science which were later proved wrong and why do they always brag about science as if they have more knowledge than Einstein and Newton?To restate, Science vs Religion makes the news a lot more than any other kind of rationalist debate. The History Channel has a long running series on Alien Archaeology and it makes for fascinating if not frustrating viewing, but a show where a scientist sits down and says "there is no proof of anything these guys are saying" would be over in two minutes and wouldn't make for good viewing. Science vs Religion is sexy and makes the news, the other debates not so much. This is the basis I believe in why my opponent's statement "Rationalist groups focus just on religion" is wrong, and that rationalists do indeed "focus on all."I did not fully understand that what point you are trying to make and how did you conclude that they focus on all. For debating against religion, they would sit for hours in news channels and accuse religion. However, if they focus on all then give me links of their interviews or blogs where they have protested against those subjects other than religion. I would recommend that my opponent subscribe to a few skeptical pod casts or magazines, where he would find that rationalists very rarely cover religion, except where it intrudes upon science, such as Creationism or Intelligent Design.Again, instead of telling me what to do, why don't you just paste some links here like I did when you asked examples? if they have protested against those subjects other than religion, then it must have some reference on the internet. Why don't you simply post them here? I am, btw, subscribed to Indian Rationalist Association's newsletter and all or mostly what I received are their protests against religion. Thank you.
