Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the moral argument and how Christians choose to lie

MJ, a christian who has come here and who often posts on her blog about christianity, is at it again with her lies about typical christian arguments for god.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – pascal’s wager and an idiot god

The Friendly Atheist has a good post about the silly "conversion" that Scott Adams supposedly made to Christianity.

I knew a good part of it already, but it's still disturbing to remember just how the founders of the US weren't good people in general.
