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. People grow up thinking God’s job us to make them happy and popular." Yep, they have to manage expectations since their god fails despite its promises. 13 … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Wintery Knight got something right

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. Yes, maybe so,” said Robertson, 91. “But at the same time, he’s being compelled by God. He went into the Ukraine, but that wasn’t his goal. 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? How about Mahatma Gandi?” A: Nobody is presently burning in Hell … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a Christian post for posterity
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 – trying to use legal claims as apologetics
During some research to destroy some apologetics, I stumbled upon an excellent take down of the common attempt by Christians to use legal definitions to force their god into existence. It over on Infidels.org in their library. This is a great site to check out counter apologetics. Critique of John Warwick Montgomery’s Arguments for the Legal … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – trying to use legal claims as apologetics
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – God fails again
"“I am making a $360 million push so that the nation and New York can tap these funds and help fortify more places of worship,” Schumer said."https://www.nydailynews.com/news/politics/us-elections-government/ny-schumer-federal-funding-protection-houses-of-worship-20220126-5frktkczefdh3i5wk74u6i44ty-story.htmlSo, everyone's tax money goes to protecting these places, no matter how much hate they spew.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Gaslighting, theist style
The Christians at GotQuestions? (self-described as “Christian, Protestant, evangelical, theologically conservative, and non-denominational” aka Christians who have also invented their own nonsense) have a video on gaslighting. What is gaslighting? | GotQuestions.org - YouTube Now, gaslighting is when an abuser tries to convince their victim that they are wrong in someway.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – aw, another Christian sure that he has a question “no atheist can answer”
oh my. It's always great when a theist makes yet *another* claim about a supposed question that atheists can't answer. Poor Trent, so sure that his Christianity version (Catholicism) is the right one, and he can’t even convince other Christians, much less an atheist. Now, out of all of this talking, it *seems* that the … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – aw, another Christian sure that he has a question “no atheist can answer”
What the Boss Likes – Bloganuary – “What is a cause you’re passionate about and why?”
I’ve skipped a couple days of “inspirations”, just not feeling it. So I start again with the question “What is a cause you’re passionate about and why?”My current readers wont’ be surprised that it is the separation of church and state and standing against the harm that religions do. And it isn't just Christianity, but … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Bloganuary – “What is a cause you’re passionate about and why?”
