a "professor of philosophy of religion" seems to be unable to grasp what atheism is and like many theists, attributes many things to it that simply aren't true. Hard to figure out what kind of christian he is, from him going to a "concordia university", but that influences is definitely here. My response:as an atheist, … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – another philosopher unable to grasp atheism

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation -no, atheism isn’t a religion
Yet one more desperate christian tries to claim atheism is a religion. They need to pretend everyone "really" agrees with them, and that "everyone" has a "religion".Alas, for their delusions, we don't.Here's my response to the poor dear:no matter how many christians try to lie and claim atheism is a religion, it is not. Atheism … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation -no, atheism isn’t a religion
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – always good when christians try to lie
Found this Christian post, and as usual the poor writer is too much of a coward to allow comments. The thoughtlessness and ignorance are typical of theists, who never think to consider how the arguments they repeat actually work. "There is an irony in atheism. The atheist must posit the existence of God in order … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – always good when christians try to lie
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Carrier’s take down of Douthat
Richard Carrier does a nice take-down of Douthat's latest nonsense. Makes a nice bookend with my post here.
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – another poem!
Found another pious poem where a Christian finds they must lie about atheists.And my version:The hour has come – the end is near –And Yet no god to fear. No god to care, no threats to find,just me and my own mind.The whispers come both faint and strong“Could all you’ve thought have been so wrong?”A waste … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – another poem!
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – three days or not?
The bible contradicts itself, no surprise there. Since we are coming toward Easter and the mess that story is, I figured I'd add my response to a christian (on youtube) who insists that jesus was really in the tomb for three days, when the chronology in the myth has ol' JC in the tomb for … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – three days or not?
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation- philosophers are bad enough but religious ones?
it's always notable when a website decides to call itself an "institute" and tries to downplay accreditation or any other way to validate what it's selling. Lots of Christians try this, to try to hide their cult under the skirts of education. (memes at the bottom)Unsuprisingly, their own desires always expose them for what they … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation- philosophers are bad enough but religious ones?
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – just another response to a christian who evidently has never encountered an atheist
yep, just one more response since these christians often don't allow any comments on their posts.Another christian fancies himself to know all about atheists and as as par for the course, doesn't. It is neither "thoughtful" or "kind". As usual, nothing much new. Dear christian, I do wonder if you’ve ever encountered an atheist. From … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – just another response to a christian who evidently has never encountered an atheist
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the conversion of Larry Sanger
Larry Sanger, for those who didn't know, was supposedly one of the founders of wikipedia. Per his wiki page, that doesn't seem to be quite accurate. And his page on rationalwiki reveals just what a twit he is (no memes at the end)In any case, he has supposedly converted to christanity, though which version isn't … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the conversion of Larry Sanger
What the Boss Likes – some random links, memes and thoughts
While in bed waiting for the alarm to go off this morning, it occured to me that the idea of free will offered by theists and their claim that their god has some "right" to kill people doesn't work. If people are given free will, they are no longer this god's property, and thus this … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – some random links, memes and thoughts
