Flew was suffering mental and health decline at the time of the publishing of that book, and it also was not published in his name. The real author simply took advantage of a sick man

My Rebuttal to Dawkins Argument

Humans can and do say things they would not in a lucid healthy state, happens all the time. Brain decline and mental health decline is not evidence for a lagit conversion. It would be like trusting the homeless guy who has Schizophrenia if they said they were Napoleon.

Please, I would like it if you respect me as a human, and not use profanity. You are not a Muslim, and you do not have a degree on Islam, you speak on a few researches you have done through the internet. I advise you to talk to Muslim Scholars who have a masters in Islam. I advise you to watch Reza Aslan, Ahmed Deedat, Maajid Nawaz and etc. Oh and sorry, human rights are a given, and yes, you have the right to believe in Allah and Mo, but no, ideas as claims do not deserve blind value or "respect" outside your right to make the claim. And so what, followers in Islam have theology degrees, and? So do Christians and Muslims and Hindus and Buddhists. If you are not comfortable with certain words, fine, but that is your comfort level, not every body gets bent out of shape over words. Now this is a problem I have with well intended liberals. I love the empathy in my species, but I find it sad for anyone to be more concerned with blasphemy or cussing, than actual physical violence and oppression and bigotry done in the name of a holy book, not just yours. There are oppressed Muslims in the east, oppressed Christians in the east, and oppressed Jews, and even in the west harassed minorities including atheists. But here at least, nobody is calling for your death nor should they. Remember that you came here on your own nobody forced you to be here and nobody is going to force you to stay. But this is what atheists do, we attack bad logic and bad claims but never confuse blasphemy with oppression. Humans have rights, but ideas do not deserve to be free from being offended.. Civility is not demanding to be free from getting offended, civility is what you do when you get offended. Most atheists here have heard the worst from Christians and Muslims and lots of people. We've been called names and been equated to Hitler and Stalin. So welcome to the real world. On a planet of 7 billion, sometimes others will offend you. Your best bet is to worry more about yourself and your own arguments.
Shit and Ran.
Whats that old saying, ah yes. Pride goeth before the fall.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.

Butthurt is claiming an all powerful God while needing to be his public relation department. You telling us an all powerful being needs mortals to be salespeople for him or kill to defend him? Can be that powerful if he cant do his own dirty work.

Didn't say you were wrong, just said that you were an ignorant disrespectful little shit.* Quote:My reasons are valid, What reason? What validity? Quote:so couldn't it just be that you atheists have an emotional connection to your atheism and get butthurt when someone points out its falsehood? Delicate, when you're losing an argument, it is simply stupid to project your own reactions and personality on to others. It would be much better from you to listen to those of us who have replied to you coherently and demolished your arguments in other threads, rather than running off into a fantasy world where you are the "true scholar" and us poor atheists are so stupid we go off into a rage because we cannot comprehend your arguments^. Oh and the only one getting butt hurt is yourself, as proved by your frequent flouncing out of threads you start and disappearing once your ideas are shown to be vapid and worthless. You don't like reality, then I suggest you stay away from here. *Doesn't mean you're right, though. You've shown nothing in any of your posts to indicate to me that I wouldn't be better sticking my head out of a window rather than asking you if it was raining. ^Which, in reality, and not inside your head, are pretty bad arguments because they neither are falsifiable, nor do they explain the evidence we have for reality.

Heres a reason: As a matter of policy I never start off being disrespectful.
I'm pretty nice until someone gives me an excuse. |
