I saw this on Kieth Olbermann this morning.

Oh boy.

The one on Limbaugh and healthcare is also a brilliant one.

Great video......

The intellectual dishonesty and arrogance of that guy implictly claiming to know that his religion (Christianity) was the right one... without being able to back it up. Tiger Woods could easily say the same thing back.

That too would also be arrogant and intellectual dishonest of course.

Thanks for the video Binny

Based on limited experience it seems that Buddists are less of a bunch of assholes than xtians.

Should someone point out that divorce rates are lowest amongst atheists and highest amongst fundamentalist Christians?

That could be explained by the fact that there are a lot less atheists than Christians; this argument can also be said for the prison statistic that people like to throw around. A statistic comparing the divorce rate among only atheists and only Christians would be a much stronger argument. I'm not saying that atheists do not have the lowest divorce rate and that Christians do not have the highest, but the gap is probably less than those misleading statistics show.

i think that might be because, erm, well you know how your sex life can make or brake a relationship?
Because xtians cant have sex till theyre married, they are inexperienced, and if they get married to some one who is experienced, they will feel unsatisfied and will know they can find better, so they leave, and unfortunatly they are married by the time they have sex for the first time, so they have to get a divorce unless anyone else has a theory

I said divorce rates, not number of divorces, so your argument of "less" makes no statistical sense. Rates don't take into account the numbers of divorces, only the percentages of marriages that end in divorce.

Also, the prison statistics is most likely an error or bad handling of statistics, as I wrote in my article dispelling the myth of the "less than 1%". http://atheistblogger.com/2009/03/13/ath...the-facts/

ah right, sorry i can just think of random stuff sometimes without paying attention. though ive always had the idea that christian relationships break down because of stuff like this
