Connecticut Shootings - Cold Comfort
January 4, 2013 at 9:22 pm
Courtesy of The Richard Dawkins Foundation for Reason and Science (RDF):
Quote:This just in! Richard Dawkins is to blame for the Connecticut shootings. "British redcoats invade our nation" "shoot our youth through the heart". It's those "smooth English accents." Thank you, Ray Comfort, for this profound reasoning. -- Sean Faircloth, Dir. of Strategy & Policy

"As a nation we've lost the fear of God. America in 1950 was called a God-fearing nation, but nowadays if you talk about the fear of God you're a fundamental Bible-bashing narrow-minded bigot who's full of hate speech. But the fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom; that's all it is, the beginning of wisdom. And someone who fears God looks upon God for their moral guidance, they don't go out and commit adultery, they don't lie, they don't steal, and they definitely don't go around killing people."
Indeed? Either these people had no fear in God:
or you might want to take another run at that one, Ray.
At the age of five, Skagra decided emphatically that God did not exist. This revelation tends to make most people in the universe who have it react in one of two ways - with relief or with despair. Only Skagra responded to it by thinking, 'Wait a second. That means there's a situation vacant.'

All they have to do is open a history book and have all their proof.
But if we walk in the light, as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus, His Son, purifies us from all sin.

Unfortunately they only ever rely on one book for all their references. Or at least purport to.

What history books Polaris? I have still yet to find one of your assertions that is factually born out.

It makes me very sad when people do this kind of thing. It wasn't any god who hurt those children and their teachers, it was a man. A very sick man. Passing the buck is insulting to the victims and their plight.

It amazes me how simpletons like this can only imagine something having value if their comsic babysitter tells them it does, and therefore, anyone that doesn't believe in the magic babysitter must automatically not value anything. Their whole argument is a house made of straw.
Oh, and I love the part where they say that this is what happens when you subscribe to evolutionary theory.
Surely an omnipotent god could do better than these two idiotic assholes to spread his message.
Even if the open windows of science at first make us shiver after the cozy indoor warmth of traditional humanizing myths, in the end the fresh air brings vigor, and the great spaces have a splendor of their own - Bertrand Russell

Maybe that's why God and JC give the planet a wide berth. Embarrassment.
