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 – seminary student failure.

Found this and its quite a set of fail and lies. The usual fail with the cosmological argument and the usual lies about atheists, from a seminary student. If you are curious to see how the kalam argument fails, Richard Carrier had a recent debate about it. "Everyone should desire that sort of theism to be true, … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – seminary student failure.

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a three-fer this year

Some of the big holidays/months for the abrahamic religions happen this month. Easter is this weekend. Passover starts on Friday. Ramadan is the whole lunar month. Passover - we have a celebration that the Israelites got their freedom, the "exodus", but it's not quite that simple and requires the death of children and people who … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a three-fer this year

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?”

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a Marvel-ous morality

  I've been having some discussions with Christians on morality.  They certainly are sure that their morality and only theirs is divinely approved.   This chunk of comic (when Beta Ray Bill was wielding Mjolnir, aka Meow-Meow, in the Thor comics), is a good antidote to such nonsense. And found Thor's Hammer kittens on etsy:  https://www.etsy.com/listing/168518362/mew-mew-mjolnir-kitty-small?ref=shop_home_active_4   Far … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a Marvel-ous morality

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 6 – Geology and the burden of proof

In 14 (of the original post here), our Christian reveals that river floods aren’t worldwide. Great shock to all of you, I know.  After finding this bit of the glaringly obvious, he then declares that while ancient people knew this kind of flood, they certainly wouldn’t mistake it for a global flood “even after the … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Part 6 – Geology and the burden of proof

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
