Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a revisiting of creationist failure

You may remember the Kitzmiller v Dover case, where creationists in Pennsylvania tried to sneak in their baseless nonsense into a public school. I live near that place so I got to hear and see lots about it. A christian is trying to retcon what happened here, claiming that it was only legal, not addressing … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a revisiting of creationist failure →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – it’s not your god, it’s you.

Theists often try to ridicule atheists by claiming that it’s silly that we attack something we are sure is imaginary.  It’s a rather pathetic way to try to convince atheists not to demonstrate how these various cults fail.  I’ve found a typical one of these attempts at convincing to tear apart. As always, little is new.  … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – it’s not your god, it’s you. →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a review of another failed apologist, Val Grieve

While crossing swords with theists on YouTube, a Christian mentioned a book ‘Your Verdict on the Empty Tomb” by Val Grieve.  I wasn’t very familiar with it, so I decided to look up any reviews, etc. about it.  It seems to be mostly recommended by folks in the British sphere of influence. And it has … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a review of another failed apologist, Val Grieve →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – desperate to fill the pews

I found quite a recruiting attempt by christians toward atheists.Here's a snippet: "Really though, if you’re an atheist you need church as much as believers do! Behold, all the benefits of churchgoing—singing, making friends, potlucks, social service, moral guidance, coming of age rituals (e.g., confirmation, graduation), social intensification rituals (e.g., births, baptisms, weddings, funerals). You … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – desperate to fill the pews →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – another bit of nonsense that caught my attention, the confusion of what happened to Judas.

Christians do love their apologetics, e.g. excuses offered to try to make their ignorant set of books make sense. They always fail. Here we have the attempt to try to make the two contradictory stories of what befell Judas after the "betrayal". This is from Hill Faith, Christians who try to convert people in the … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – another bit of nonsense that caught my attention, the confusion of what happened to Judas. →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – christian conservatives living up to exactly what one expects

Carrie Sheffield, a conservative analyst, is "shocked" that christian conservatives don't want to vote for a Hindu believer, Vivek Ramaswamy, as a presidential candidate. Opinion: Christian conservatives betray their values in criticizing Ramaswamy’s faith"It’s discouraging to see some of my fellow conservatives attacking rising GOP presidential candidate Vivek Ramaswamy for his Hindu faith. It is … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – christian conservatives living up to exactly what one expects →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – If you weren’t sure that conservative christians were vicious and ignorant…

From the Freedom From Religion Foundation (I'm a member): "‘Noah’s Ark’ brief nets 22 members of Congress ‘Theocrats of the Week’ moniker""The FFRF Action Fund is labeling no less than 22 members of Congress as “Theocrats of the Week” for signing a cruel and biblically inspired amicus brief supporting Texas Gov. Greg Abbott’s lethal buoys … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – If you weren’t sure that conservative christians were vicious and ignorant… →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Dr. Chuck and his claims

I've had a Dr. Chuck like my post about how a christian failed to show his claims as true. This is curious since Dr. Chuck is an evangelical Christian who is quite sure his religion is true. Here's a response to one of his posts since he doesn't allow comments on them. Nothing new here, … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Dr. Chuck and his claims →

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – predatory theists

I've found this rather amusing post from a self-decribed "philosopher" and evident theist, most likely christian about how one should approach us atheists. this is my reply for the wannabe predator:"I argue that evidence of God is emic and subjective and first requires a leap of faith.” which works out quite well for any cult’s … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – predatory theists →
