I had to save this for posterity " The recent decisions of the Supreme Court cheat Moloch of his accustomed cheap comestibles. He’ll have to make do with less. But, as with all natural systems under the orbit of the moon, this is a case of pushing the envelope in one way only to see … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – you too can see how crazy Christians can be

Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Reflecting some more on the SCOTUS rescinding Roe v.Wade
I have the following. Please do feel free to borrow as you will. I will guess that my Christian blog followers will be deathly silent. We have had the pleasure of watching at least two Catholics (I had mistakenly called them evangelical Christians) lie under oath, Kavanaugh and Barrett. (most curious since evangelicals are sure that … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Reflecting some more on the SCOTUS rescinding Roe v.Wade
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – oh look, excuses by a Christian on why their god does nothing
A Christian commenter on this blog, "Alexander Phaethon" has written this set of excuses for why his god does nothing at all when it comes to children being killed. I've added some paragraphing so it's not one block of text. "I am, most likely to annoyance of most, going to cite free will here. It’s … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – oh look, excuses by a Christian on why their god does nothing
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – an excellent essay about morality, gods and mass shootings
Dr. Darren Slade over at the Global Center for Religious Research has written an excellent essay about the excuses that theists, especially conservative Christians, give when it comes to mass shootings. In case you might not know, "miso" means "hate" and yes, one can do that even for imaginary characters. "God and Mass Shootings: A … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – an excellent essay about morality, gods and mass shootings
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – now the QOP finds another group they’ve ignored to use as an excuse
Currently here in the US, we have the usual conservative Christians trying to force their lies on everyone again, this time trying to stop legal abortion. We also have them being ever so concerned about children in the US being "starved" by immigrant families being given infant formula, which is in short supply here in … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – now the QOP finds another group they’ve ignored to use as an excuse
Not So Polite Conversation – my discussion with Alexander part 2
Unsurprisingly, the comments got a little hairy looking on the prior post. Alex seems to have determined he doesn't want to debate things anymore. This often happens when the theist finds they have nothing when it comes to supporting their claims. In this case, Alex was unable to give examples of his accusations against various … Continue reading Not So Polite Conversation – my discussion with Alexander part 2
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the conservative christians want a theocracy where no one has privacy
I'm guessing most of my readers have seen that a draft opinion from the Supreme Court of the United States, was revealed to the public. This opinion is to end the legality of abortion in the US at the federal level, and that original case was built on the fact that no government has any … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – the conservative christians want a theocracy where no one has privacy
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a great paper on how cults rationalize their nonsense
Just a link to a very good paper on how cults, aka religions, can invent nonsense and end up believing it to be true. Thanks to John Loftus over at Debunking Christianity for giving the link. “The Rationalization Hypothesis: Is a Vision of Jesus Necessary for the Rise of the Resurrection Belief?” — by Kris KomarnitskyThe … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – a great paper on how cults rationalize their nonsense
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
Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Christians are atheists too
I, and many other atheists, have pointed out to theists that they are atheists too. They simply don’t believe in other gods, often for reasons just like I do: there is no evidence. They often get upset by this revelation, since it neuters their common attacks on atheists e.g. atheists are those scary communists, etc.Nothing … Continue reading Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – Christians are atheists too
