Ah. Just one more shithead, then.
You are a clearly a fantastic conversationalist. I'm sorry I won't be hearing from you.

Also, it's not really that kind of challenge. It's more of a call to examine your beliefs from a slightly different angle than usual, which, if carried out, would hopefully make discussions on the topic more productive, at least in theory.
The video would have served as an intro, so I'll try to summarize it later.
What makes you think I don't do that? I examine my stances all the time, and often change them in light of new arguments and evidence. That is why I'm not a Christian anymore, the religion just does not hold up to scrutiny.
Then I suppose the video wasn't directed at you then.

I've made no claim about anything you have or haven't done. Why, if you have done the thing, would you be commenting on a topic specifically speaking to people who haven't done that thing?

What makes you think we haven't?
Boru
Because I've met an exceedingly large number of atheists who specifically say they haven't done this thing and that they specifically refuse to do so. If you haven't watched the video yet, why are you commenting on what you imagine is in it, and if you HAVE watched it, why are you not commenting on the actual contents of the video?
