Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 10 – and I’m done …. for now

It is finished!  In this last installment of addressing a particular TrueChristiantm’s claims, we have some of the most ridiculous claims.  I’m not sure if he thought this was the best he had and he wanted a “strong” finish or if it’s just coincidence.  Again, here is the pdf truechristian post 19-23 (EDIT: 02-21-13- our … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 10 – and I’m done …. for now

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 8 – #19 the first half, geology, misapprehensions about evolution, carbon dating and more quote-mining

We’re on the home stretch now, though the section numbered 19 is probably the longest one.  It’s also probably the best for someone like me who wishes to show how creationists are just so silly.  The pdf of the text of the last part (sections 19-23) of our TrueChristiantm’s post is here: truechristian post 19-23. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 8 – #19 the first half, geology, misapprehensions about evolution, carbon dating and more quote-mining

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 5 – Not so much geology but dueling myths

We are now at section 13.  One can see the desperation rise noticeably.  I’ve posted the typed text of his post at the end of this paragraph, rather than put it into the body of the blog post.   It’s a pdf of sections 13-18 (so I’ll be referring to it in subsequent posts). Be warned, … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 5 – Not so much geology but dueling myths

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Prepare yourselves folks

Our current guest Christian, Woody, has decided to post his rebuttal to my flood post on his website.  It's not up yet but should be soon and he's even promised a video!  He has given me a preview which I am sharing here.   He has declared that anyone who tries to comment on this on … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Prepare yourselves folks

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Another TrueChristian(tm) steps up, Part 3

(Woody is at it again. Rather than have this as another comment, here is my response to Woody's latest series of baseless claims in an easier to read format. I go into evolutionary theory a bit more in this post. You can read his whole post at the link above but the choicer bits are … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Another TrueChristian(tm) steps up, Part 3

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Another TrueChristian(tm) steps up, part 2

(Since I had it done, here it is. Part 1 is here.) Part 2 I had not heard about the “dane’s kings list going back to Noah”.  I wonder do you know of the list of Japanese emperors that goes back to the goddess Amaterasu and further back to Izanagi and Inzanami?  I didn’t think … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Another TrueChristian(tm) steps up, part 2

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Another TrueChristian(tm) steps up, Part 1

Joseph “Woody” Armstrong has visited my website recently to comment on it.  I don’t know much about him other than he is another example of a TrueChristiantm though with different characteristics then someone like Caroline.  He is a KJV onlyist, someone who is certain that the only “true” bible is the Authorized King James Version. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Another TrueChristian(tm) steps up, Part 1

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Bad logic and even worse “science”

Recently, I’ve seen the usual flood myth claims on one more theist blog. This has been done to death but I do love the subject since I’m a geologist.  The initial blog post was the usual claim by a theist that atheists don’t have enough proof for their position and at best they “really” should … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Bad logic and even worse “science”

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – God made in man’s image – very very dumb

“I, _________, do solemnly swear that I will support and defend the Constitution of the United States against all enemies, foreign and domestic, that I will bear true faith and allegiance to the same; that I take this obligation freely, without any mental reservation or purpose of evasion; and that I will well and faithfully … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – God made in man’s image – very very dumb

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Judging the judge, or lessons in hypocrisy and excuse

Christians (and most theists) do love to make excuses for their god, why we shouldn’t ever dare attempt to judge its actions and excuses on why its so pathetically impotent.  Caroline, a Christian who has been a lovely example for this blog, now continues with her attempts, part 1 and part 2. As promised, and as … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Judging the judge, or lessons in hypocrisy and excuse
