Not So Polite Dinner Conversation: the problem of suffering and how a Christian excuses his god
A fellow who I’ve crossed swords with before has listed 7 reasons why his god, one of the versions of the Christian one, isn’t a bastard for allowing suffering in this world. I asked him about how heaven fits into all of this and it quickly became an excuse fest that this god “could” create … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation: the problem of suffering and how a Christian excuses his god

I have a couple of questions for my Christian followers. I know you are indeed out there. Are you honest enough to respond?First we have this from a TrueChristian(tm), Geri Ungurean. "I would agree that Fauci is full of hot air, but not senile. I believe that he is demon possessed and knows exactly what … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a couple of questions I have for my Christian followers
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – “It disappoints God.”
Christians are very uncomfortable when a non-christian points out that Christians don't agree on much at all. C.S. Lewis was so afraid of the problem, he advocated to lie to any potential Christian when it came to the many many internecine contradictions between Christians (preface, "Mere Christianity). That's a bit of a problem when the … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – “It disappoints God.”
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – an impotent and evil god
Unsurprisingly, the Christian god does nothing, just like it doesn't exist.https://ffrf.org/news/news-releases/item/39890-yet-another-report-of-widespread-abuse-and-cover-up-by-the-catholic-church"The Roman Catholic Church has abused more than 300,000 French children since 1950, according to an explosive report that an independent commission has just released.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – yet another Christian caught in telling lies
It is unfortunately nothing new to find a Christian choosing to lie. This one, Stephen Bernard, decides to repeat the lies of deathbed conversion. And he can't even get the spelling of Thomas Paine's name right. This is how knowledge destroys religion. "THOMAS PAYNE The leading atheistic writer in American colonies: “Stay with me, for … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – yet another Christian caught in telling lies

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – ever so “better”
This is a recent post by John Branyan, a self-described Christian comedian. I’ve crossed swords with him before (and his daughter). You can also see it here, if you are not feeling the need to give him a click, preserved for posterity. He is amusing, but not in the way I think he wishes. In … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – ever so “better”
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – “Who’s on the side of science now?” how saying something doesn’t mean it’s true
Caroline (a Christian who I’ve tangled with before) certainly has written an amusing piece on her blog, insisting that science supports theism. No matter how much she wants to “boldly proclaim that not only are science and faith not in conflict with each other, theism is the worldview better supported by science” it isn’t even … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – “Who’s on the side of science now?” how saying something doesn’t mean it’s true
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – thou shalt lie, as long as we can get our claws in kids
Wow, one of the more unpleasant videos by conservative Christian liars I’ve seen in a while. I found this on a Christian blog by a Dr. Bob. It’s about how even atheists really need to teach their kids about the Christian god. For their good, of course. It’s a few years old but still a … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – thou shalt lie, as long as we can get our claws in kids
