Shouldn't it say, "Why Are Theists So Stupid?"

I've heard about it but never actually played the video.

Quite the classic. The guy could sell a banana or a dildo without changing the speech, just the set.

Why are atheists so stupid? Hmm...

Maybe it’s because we believe that a timeless, spaceless, changeless, all-powerful, infinite, all-knowing, distinctly male, humanoid disembodied mind created reality and all of its billions upon billions of galaxies so that he could poof mortal humans into existence, and be friends with them, because he was lonely in his infinity. And, then when he realized his creation was going to be a big time disappointment, he magic-raped and impregnated the young wife of a goat herder in the Middle East so that he could make himself a human who was both himself and also his son at the time, plus a ghost(?), and then that god/human guy got murdered and came back to life, so that the main god who is supposed to be all powerful, would be able to let his mortal disappointments into the magical land where there is no space, or time, or ‘inputs and outputs,’ yet everyone is happy and reunited with their families...and everyone else is fucked.

Oh, wait. That’s you guys. 😘

Being called stupid for refusing to kiss feet of Space Sadist... Good thing I found sport to get myself busy and healthy.

Being called stupid for refusing to invent a space sadist so you can fantasize about kissing his feet.

No matter how bad a theist position already sounds, it is always possible to cast it in a much worse light still by simply describing the position slightly more accurately.

Quote:"We have already compared the benefits of theology and science. When the theologian governed the world, it was covered with huts and hovels for the many, palaces and cathedrals for the few. To nearly all the children of men, reading and writing were unknown arts. The poor were clad in rags and skins -- they devoured crusts, and gnawed bones. The day of Science dawned, and the luxuries of a century ago are the necessities of to-day. Men in the middle ranks of life have more of the conveniences and elegancies than the princes and kings of the theological times. But above and over all this, is the development of mind. There is more of value in the brain of an average man of to-day -- of a master-mechanic, of a chemist, of a naturalist, of an inventor, than there was in the brain of the world four hundred years ago. These blessings did not fall from the skies. These benefits did not drop from the outstretched hands of priests. They were not found in cathedrals or behind altars -- neither were they searched for with holy candles. They were not discovered by the closed eyes of prayer, nor did they come in answer to superstitious supplication. They are the children of freedom, the gifts of reason, observation and experience -- and for them all, man is indebted to man."

-- Robert Green Ingersoll

BM. In the generic sense of "man", and taking the teachings from the correct ones. This is the thing with the internet. As knowledge spreads, the superstition is going to be shoved into even darker corners until there is none. I will admit that the last vestige of darkness will never disappear, because that is just the human condition. In my estimation, theists aren't so much stupid as perhaps too "lazy" in a lot of cases to reason their way out of the horseshit. There's more to it than that, obviously, but that is a component.
