MJ, a christian young woman who has appeared here before, tries to claim how her god is the easy answer. That shows just how easy answers aren't always correct answers. Her post boils down to: "When you make a claim as big as “God doesn’t exist,” then logically, you must start explaining other aspects of … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – easy answers aren’t always correct

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – sin
Sin isn't about good or evil. It's not about morality. It is entirely about obedience. If you choose to dash babies on rocks, it's only a "sin" because a god didn't tell you to do it. If a god tells you to do it, it is not a sin.
What the Boss Likes – Inherited morality and rocks
I very much like Reasoned Reality's substack about morality. And here's a good article on ancient geology and the "great unconformity" : Ancient rocks point to an early start for the Great Unconformity—the biggest gap in Earth’s rock record Addendum: and i finished my embroidery on my old garden vest. Foxglove, monkshood, hemlock, nightshade, thistle, … Continue reading What the Boss Likes – Inherited morality and rocks
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the moral argument and how Christians choose to lie
MJ, a christian who has come here and who often posts on her blog about christianity, is at it again with her lies about typical christian arguments for god.

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.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – moral relativism and C.S. Lewis
Mark, over at Hillfaith tries to claim how great it is that some random woman who was educated at Harvard believed C.S. Lewis. Curious how she probably never read just how subjective Lewis's morality is."It’s not a word often heard these days but “subjectivism” — AKA “moral relativism” — is among the essential ingredients in … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – moral relativism and C.S. Lewis
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the typical christian confusion about the worth of a human life
On Hillfaith, there are the typical conservative christians who try to lie about how much their god cares about human beings.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – for your delectation, a discussion with a typical Christian
Pastor Jonathan Waits has challenged me to put up his replies to my comments on his blog. So, with his permission, I have. You can see them on his blog too, and I'm sure there will be more. The following is *very* long, tedious and has very little new in it, including no evidence for … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – for your delectation, a discussion with a typical Christian
Not So Polite Conversation – a lovely example of quote mining and referring to century old nonsense by christians
I found a typical post by a christian desperately trying to attack evolutionary theory. As is very common, it is marked by quote mining, ignorance and the need to find quotes that agree with their nonsense, quotes often quite old since these people depend on ignorance and ignoring modern research. here's my reply: Unsurprisngly, that’s a quote … Continue reading Not So Polite Conversation – a lovely example of quote mining and referring to century old nonsense by christians
