If you want to claim ABBA is the one true God, by all means do. But if you want to go beyond that bullshit claim and actually write laws mandating bowing to ABBA, yea, I have a huge problem with that.

The problem worldwide with every religion to certain degrees, there are always assholes, regardless of religion, whom try to interject religion into law.

But that’s not what you said. You said religious hucksters should stop what they’re doing so you can channel surf in peace.

Um, if you are forcing everyone to listen to ABBA, then you are on the right side of history. But if you stand apposed to ABBA, this is me.

So, you’re continuing to affirm that other people should only be allowed to say what you want them to say?

The best thing I think theists could do, is to pray to their gods for the things to say to atheists that would convince us of said gods existence.

I am sure, any god worth that title, would be able to tell their followers what to say that would convince us.

And since he is a god, he would be able to do that.

You'd believe if you just opened your heart" is a terrible argument for religion. It's basically saying, "If you bias yourself enough, you can convince yourself that this is true." If religion were true, people wouldn't need faith to believe it -- it would be supported by good evidence.

For anyone curious; The video was about 20 minutes with poor audio. He basically prayed for 3 minutes then said Atheists actually believed in god then read some comments for a while.

After answering a few select chat questions he ended the chat.

FSM was very disappointed, The video is available if you click the op's link.

Isn't funny that when anyone, most people in the world talk about a "God/god/gods" they always, for the most part, assume a penis over a vagina.

Hilarious

Jesting aside and no belief to the contrary withstanding... the fact is that atheism, like many other things in this present world (wars, death, famine, disease etc) will all come to an inevitable end; at the end of the age.  Who are those praying for the end of atheism? How does this help each of them escape condemnation for their personal sins as required by the law?

"The earth mourns and fades away, The world languishes and fades away; The haughty people of the earth languish. The earth is also defiled under its inhabitants, Because they have transgressed the laws, Changed the ordinance, Broken the everlasting covenant. Therefore the curse has devoured the earth,  And those who dwell in it are desolate.  Therefore the inhabitants of the earth are burned, And few men are left." - Isaiah 24:4-6

"For behold, I create new heavens and a new earth; And the former shall not be remembered or come to mind." - Isaiah 65:17

Jesting aside after 653 mammals just referred an ineffectual wish toward a non disprovable celestial dictator and it concerned ending the disbelief commonality of this forum?

Verily, one is not earnest.
