Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – not so “clever” as a theist might think

A rather silly Christian had the below on their blog.  This is a Christian who is also sure that essential oils do magic and that zyto scanning machines work.  They work as well as the e-meter that Scientologists use to look at your alien ghosts that are attached to you aka not at all.  The … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – not so “clever” as a theist might think →

What the Boss Likes – Getting back in the blogging saddle

Here I am again, trying to catch up on some blogging.  I’m going to try to post much more often though we’ll see how that works out. Let’s see, what’s been going on at the Club:   The kittens have grown quite a bit.  They don’t often meow, but they trill at us and each … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Getting back in the blogging saddle →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Christians say the darndest things

This is something I have to preserve for posterity.  A Christian told me this: "Trying to cast a disagreement as a lie is symptomatic of primitive thinking. Look, there is no consensus among atheists that atheism is merely a lack of belief in a god. If atheism is merely a lack of belief in a … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Christians say the darndest things →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – answering “Answering Atheism’s Questions Part 1: Is God’s Character Abusive?”

Well, that depends on which version since each Christian comes up with one they create in their own image.  The author of the blog post I'm addressing does want to claim that his version isn't an abuser. Generally, abusive would mean “ using or involving physical violence or emotional cruelty” … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – answering “Answering Atheism’s Questions Part 1: Is God’s Character Abusive?” →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – more low hanging creationist fruit

Fruit. See what I did there?  😀 Unsurprisingly, Ray Comfort, the fellow who thinks oranges are evidence for his version of the Christian god, is now trying to glom onto actual science again and insisting paleontology shows his myths are true. And of course he’s trying to make money from repacking the same old creationist … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – more low hanging creationist fruit →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Now Oranges are evidence of the conservative Christian god

Yep, thanks to Ray Comfort, oranges are evidence of his version of the Christian god:   Of course no Christian can do miracles like Jesus Christ, Son of God. But heck, we should believe oranges are evidence of this god, just like bananas. Screw the amputees, screw the cancer patients, oranges are evidence of God. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Now Oranges are evidence of the conservative Christian god →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – oh the arguments over imaginary friends

This blog is quite bemusing.   Abrahamists are after each other on whose version of their god is right: https://bloggingtheology.com/2019/09/02/islam-jack-chick-and-the-battle-for-souls-your-best-life It does come down to "My imaginary god is the right one. No, mine is! Your holy book is contradictory. No, yours is." The blog is a great example of how theists use the same arguments … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – oh the arguments over imaginary friends →
