The Associated Press has an article about the magical nonsense invoked by Christians, specifically the Pope. Way back when, there was the Fatima nonsense, where people saw Mary floating around and giving prophecies. Now, again, its being claimed to be "fulfilled" which is always rather silly since it apparently has already been claimed to have … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – prophecy nonsense

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Wintery Knight got something right
Wintery Knight isn't the sharpest knife when it comes to apologists. But he did get one thing right."We should do a better job of that to set expectations.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a new pair of apologists
I found a new blog with a pair of Christian gals who want to address us atheists, agnostics and non-christians. Unfortunately, they don't seem to be very aware of counter apologetics and may regret what they've started. They seem nice enough, but terribly ignorant. We'll see how this goes. Here's a response to one of … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a new pair of apologists
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – yet one more list of questions for atheists that fails
This is a list of 29 (!) questions from a family of apologists that style themselves the AIIA Institute (such a lovely appeal to authority attempt. Anyone can start an “institute”). I found out about them since they took out a full-page ad in Yankee Magazine (a regional tourism, etc magazine for the northeast US). … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – yet one more list of questions for atheists that fails
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – false prophets and morons, oh my
Oh look, constant false prophet and very hateful little man Pat Robertson is spewing his nonsense again. "“I think you can say, well, Putin’s out of his mind.

His … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – false prophets and morons, oh my
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a Christian post for posterity
I've stumbled upon a person, KC Sunbeam (not sunshine, but still a crank). Their latest post is quite a doozy, especially with their tagline: "This Unique Person and Social Pariah tackles society's problems with intellectual accuity."Some pertinent parts."1-2) “Is Anne Frank burning in Hell right now?

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – attempts to declare one religion “better” doesn’t work out so well
I do love a completely clueless post by John Clayton, over at Does God Exist. He tries very hard to declare that Christianity is ever so much better than Islam.To give some background, John tries to claim that he was once an atheist who became a Christian because “science”. Alas, not one thing about science says … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – attempts to declare one religion “better” doesn’t work out so well

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – abortion and the hypocrisy of Christians
Currently, the conservative Christians here in the US are doing their best to eliminate the right of women to control their own bodiesby trying to nullify Roe V. Wade in the Supreme Court. They natter on about the “right to life”.One has to wonder how they worship a god that kills children for the actions of … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – abortion and the hypocrisy of Christians
