It’s always fun to watch Christains offer excuses on why they “don’t debate atheists”. Here, Russell Moore, who claims he was a “seminary dean” offers his excuses on why he doesn’t. Apologetics are to keep the gullible in the cult. They rarely are why someone becomes a Christian. They are to keep the questions down, and … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – hey, wait it doesn’t work

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the usual appeals to authority and outright nonsense
So the Christians have trotted out another "scientist" who converted and gosh golly, that must mean that the cult's claims are true. (memes at the bottom, btw)It's notable that this one is particularly ridiculous. A physicist supposedly took a lie detector test and when he felt guilty, he declared "sin" was true.Alas, that doesn't work … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the usual appeals to authority and outright nonsense
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – evidence and proof
Christians often try to be clever with something like this, recently posted here by a rather ignorant person, "thinking in darkness":(memes below, btw)"Hi CS, I found this statement interesting, “In that you can’t show your god merely exists, much less that it is what you claim, you have nothing.” I would like you to try … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – evidence and proof
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – dialogue
A christian pastor wants "dialogue" and yet makes many false claims on his blog about atheists. I wonder if he'll respond to me and what I wrote. Again, nothing new, just the usual rebutting. The early Christians were chasing the nonsense of not dying and being a god’s favored. Then as they splintered and changed, … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – dialogue
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – I had wondered when this would come about
"In a stunning decision out of Indiana, a judge has blocked the Republican-led state’s near-total abortion ban saying that it violates the religious freedom of those whose beliefs require them to get an abortion when they believe it’s necessary." - Indiana judge says state's abortion ban violates religious freedom of those seeking abortions, Friendly Atheist
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – that whole “fool” thing.
Many theists love to call those outside of the religion "fools". They can't show that their gods exist, but we are to be considered fools for not agreeing with them. A rather silly Christian, Ryan, is sure we are fools and yet he doesn't know what's in his own bible. The following is a response … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – that whole “fool” thing.
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – new pope, same old nonsense
The new Pope, Leo, supposedly corresponded with an atheist. You can see the article here. (memes below)Unsurpsingly, his response is the same old nonsense. "Pope Leo responded to Rocco by quoting St. Augustine, who said, “You were within me, but I was outside myself, and there I sought you!”curiously every cult makes a similar claim. … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – new pope, same old nonsense
What the Boss likes – “When Accountablity is a Foreign Concept”
I follow Dan Rather on Substack and he has a good article on how the US is far behind holding people accountable for raping kids."There once was a time in this country when accountability mattered. The very thought of associating with, much less maintaining a close friendship with a known sex offender would be career … Continue reading What the Boss likes – “When Accountablity is a Foreign Concept”
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – $700 million failed whitewash job
The Friendly Atheist talks about the "He Gets Us" christian ad campaign that I've talked about before. Unsurprisngly, this $700 million has been wasted, and it's no surprise that the ones wasting the money are frauds like the people involved with Hobby Lobby, etc. (BTW, memes at the bottom) "Marketing Jesus comes with an inherent … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – $700 million failed whitewash job
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – VA Chaplains in Massachusetts Told Not to Mention Slain Nurse Alex Pretti
Unfortuantely, this isn't surprising, and it shows just how these assholes know they are wrong. Found out about this through the Military Religious Freedom Foundation. I've supported them for years.
