Rather than having one mega post, here is part 2 of the post about juries, etc. Part one is here. I have said that there are only stories that Paul existed as claimed. That includes his supposed conversion. I can also say that there are only stories that Simon Magus flew around since that also … Continue reading Not So Pleasant Dinner Conversation – Juries, etc (Postzilla) part 2

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Juries, sources and what the gospels has to say about 500 witnsses among other things (aka Postzilla part 1)
this post has been split into two parts. part 2 can be found here.) Sorry for the hiatus on the blog, everyone. I thought I might address one of the comments on one of the other blog entries since there are some interesting claims by a Christian apologist and a blog entry is more … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Juries, sources and what the gospels has to say about 500 witnsses among other things (aka Postzilla part 1)
Not Polite Dinner Conversation – That “evidence” including the best one “sincere believers”
The next post by Silverswiper (SS) on Ben’s blog are even worse claims of “evidence” than the first two. All of these seem to come from an inability to think like someone who isn’t a Christian. SS also goes right to WLC’s claims despite claiming he is not using them. The first two claims of evidence … Continue reading Not Polite Dinner Conversation – That “evidence” including the best one “sincere believers”
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – More intentional lies from TrueChristians who are also state legislators here in Pennsylvania, also known as “nothing is new”
Being the excellent examples of how religion makes no one a better person, we now have Pennsylvania legislators introducing yet another useless House Resolution full of intentional lies in their continued attempts to play pretend that their version of Christianity is the state religion of the United States. This resolution is HR 306 and unsurprisingly, … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – More intentional lies from TrueChristians who are also state legislators here in Pennsylvania, also known as “nothing is new”
Not Polite Dinner Conversation – Yep, just as I thought, nothing new as “evidence”
Ben, the current Christian to visit these pages with his claims, has declared that he has evidence that Jesus Christ, the son of his god and the supposed savior of humankind existed. He has directed me to a series of guest posts on his blog that supposedly contain this evidence (this post will deal with … Continue reading Not Polite Dinner Conversation – Yep, just as I thought, nothing new as “evidence”
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Basic beliefs, Christians and atheists arguments aren’t that different
Here is the second part of the second part. This part is more about what “basic beliefs” are and how one argues against them. Ben doesn’t think Paul was forced to be a Christian and does acknowledge that other Christians will disagree. And again, we have Christians who can’t agree, can’t show that they are … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Basic beliefs, Christians and atheists arguments aren’t that different
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – “expectations” of evidence or how presupposition can really screw you up
The following is my response to Ben’s comment on the Part 2 part of my interactions with him. This was the one about the evidence that Christians apologists think they have for their god. We got a bit off topic in the comments but it’s worth a post on its own. My response has gotten … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – “expectations” of evidence or how presupposition can really screw you up
Not Polite Dinner Conversation – I’m free! and more on definitions of “god”
Since I’ve been out of the loop for a few days, I thought I’d do a whole post on the comments that have been offered in defense of theism, religion and Christianity that I haven’t addressed yet. Right now, I’m no longer among the ranks of the working for a while (had an interview for … Continue reading Not Polite Dinner Conversation – I’m free! and more on definitions of “god”
What the Boss Likes – a small hiatus and some cool things
Since I'm wrapping up my last two days of work at my current position, I'll be taking a little longer to answer replies. I should be back to normal (or a reasonable facsimile) shortly. A couple cool things. John Paulk, the posterboy for the lies about "ex-gay" therapy, has admitted that he's lied about being "ex-gay" … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – a small hiatus and some cool things
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – A bit about the term “respect”
One thing I see a lot of is that a lot of theists demand respect for their religion. What I think is happening is that a lot of theists think that respect means the same as politeness, consideration and tolerance. It doesn’t, at least not all of the time, or we wouldn’t need those other … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – A bit about the term “respect”
