Jonathan Waits, a pastor, makes a lot of false claims. He's been here before: this, and this. Here's my response to them. Nothing much new. Memes at the bottom.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – not so “bold” after all
It's entertaining when would-be christian apologist names his blog something that he fails at. This is the case at "bold apologia" when an apologist won't let comments show. Adam, the fellow there, is quite sure he can argue that his god isn't a monster. He unsurprisngly fails. My response that I'm quite sure will never … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – not so “bold” after all
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – that fish miracle
Caroline is a great example of how christains dont' think their arguments through. Here's my response to her claims about miracles, including that fish story:It’s great when a Christian shows just how ridiculous her nonsense is. Here, Caroline has discussed the loaves and fishes miracle, one of the many that can’t be shown to have … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – that fish miracle
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – three days or not?
The bible contradicts itself, no surprise there. Since we are coming toward Easter and the mess that story is, I figured I'd add my response to a christian (on youtube) who insists that jesus was really in the tomb for three days, when the chronology in the myth has ol' JC in the tomb for … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – three days or not?

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – no, christians didn’t create “western civilization”
Just another rebuttal to a christian’s false claims. This one is rebutting a certain Chad Marinelli, who is another pastor who gets his “doctorate” from a diploma mill, that has no accreditation, and gets by with an exception to a state law: “Indiana IC 21-18.5-6-2.5 Accreditation required; exception for religious institution Sec. 2.5. A … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – no, christians didn’t create “western civilization”
Not So Polite Dinner conversation – the “justice” of the bible
I've been chatting with a christian about her god's justice. She remarked upon Psalm 55 when the bible character David is lamenting the fact he was betrayed by someone. I pointed out his god betrayed him when this god murdered his son for what david did. Christians really don't like being reminded that their god … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner conversation – the “justice” of the bible
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the usual lies about contradictions
Mark Tapscott over at Hillfaith has yet another attempt at excusing bible contradictions.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the usual christian telling atheists what we believe
Ah, another ignorant christian making up nonsense about atheists, his supposed "dear friends". (memes at the end)"I have read the works of atheists and spoken to several over the years, and I even have dear friends who are atheists. I must say, atheists intrigue me. Most are well mannered, probably much more so than I. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the usual christian telling atheists what we believe
