Ben Carson challenged by atheist voter in Iowa
#12
RE: Ben Carson challenged by atheist voter in Iowa
I don't think the atheists win by doing this. The only thing that's sort of nice to see is an atheist standing up and saying "I'm an atheist". After that it goes down hill.

This is really more of a blow to the morale of the atheist movement (if you would consider it a movement). This is the second time I've seen a video like this, and they both end in thunderous applause from the audience. What would be the difference between these actual atheists and someone planted there by the speaker? Both situations give them the chance to pander, and the atheist (and the atheists watching the video) are left with a feeling of being outnumbered. I don't think the time is right.

I would, however, like to see an atheist question Bernie for the pandering and morale points.
I can't remember where this verse is from, I think it got removed from canon:

"I don't hang around with mostly men because I'm gay. It's because men are better than women. Better trained, better equipped...better. Just better! I'm not gay."

For context, this is the previous verse:

"Hi Jesus" -robvalue
