WLC is the goto christian apologist as of late. One of the fun features of his “style” is that he does not argue coherently. And here is why:
He lost me when he got to the calculus bit, but the first counter-example was crystal clear. :)
The tatters and gaping imperfections of religion are obvious once you hold the fecal laced tapestry up to the light. Hitchen’s despite his flaws does a fantastic job of laying bare the feeble nature of religious belief. Once again, on ABC’s television program Q&A, the tough issues are tackled.
The christian majority continues to whinge about being oppressed. Tough beans theocrats – the law, for once, has women’s back on this issue. So when you see the christian whinge starting as illustrated below, you also have the answer to their false claim of being persecuted.
It is important to celebrate the aspects of religion that bring a smile to your face. This clip has been exercising my smile muscles since I first saw it.
I’m such a fan of the yodel-rap.
So, we have the above and then we have stuff like this –
I would be much more likely to get all ‘religiousy’ if they were all about the Bach. :)
You know what makes religion go away? Discussing it and teasing out how amazingly toxic it is for people in modern society. Where is the CBC on this media front? We in Canada desperately need a platform to talk about the tough issues that face our societies. Lawrence Krauss slams religion publicly and defends his point of view with great alacrity. We need more of this, so much more.
Happy Bunny Day or Happy Easter as the deluded like to say. :) This merry bunny day, we have a short, but telling expose on how much bullcookery you have to swallow if you really want to get down the Jebus and hang out with him on Easter.
God is quite the bag of dicks, it would seem.
Potholer54 does a wonderful job of skewering the creationist stupidity involved with probability, he neatly lays bare the idea that MORE ZEROES = Scientific Fact because god said.
Enjoy. :)

Whinge: How does forcing employers to give out abortifacients and not giving them a choice mean these people are being Pro-Choice and giving them a choice? Also these people claim to want to keep the government out of people’s bedrooms despite forcing businesses to give out items like birth control pills and IUDs that are used in the bedroom
The Answer: The First Amendment says my employer cannot force me to live according to my employer’s religion if it conflicts with my own. That means my employer cannot use a religious reason to deny me any part of health care under law. “Obamacare” closes the loophole that allowed a pro-life employer to deny me birth control, a privilege no other religious belief has ever been afforded anyway – a Jehovah’s Witness employer never could deny me a blood transfusion and a Christian Scientist employer could never deny me health insurance in the first place. You are claiming a special privilege that no other religious employer has ever had, the “right” to force your religion on another person, and whining that you’re being persecuted when you’re being stopped from violating other people’s First Amendment rights.
