Alincolnism?

Nonetheless, there is no evidence for your fucking godboy. Try to keep that firmly in your head.

I don't get it. Was this supposed to be funny?

I get the feeling that Christians are trying to mock atheists, but it's so poorly done that I can't be sure. Instead of being a parody of atheists, it's a parody of the straw-atheists religious people see in their head.

Christians should just abstain from attempting to be funny. Jesus sucks the humor out of everything.

I hear ya. I'm confused as well. If it's parody, it's not funny, and usually parody or satire as an element of humor to it. This is just plain stupid. Great satire can be seen in the works of The Onion, and they do it so well that people often take it seriously because they don't get the joke.

But nobody ever accused Christians of having a great sense of humor.

pseudonym.

...because everyone on FB has to use their real name.

I said, if folks can make up their own definition of marriage, I can change the definition of "real name".

Turns out you CAN use fake names on FB - as long as you support same sex 'marriage', hate religion, vote Democrat, troll Ray Comforts page, etc. etc.

pseudonym.

Seems like a minor crime.

When they can produce a photo of christ and some of his handwriting they can compare the two.

Yeah, cause no one existed before the invention of cameras.

I wouldn't say the page is accurate for atheists in general, but it's spot-on regarding mythers. That's pretty much how they come across.

Well no, my point was there is mounds of contemporary and verifiable evidence for Lincoln but for Jesus there is none, which is odd considering the stir he was supposed to have made at the time.

I used to think that Jesus probably existed, purely because of the rationalising done by christians to excuse the shameful death by cruscifiction and his conviction. It seemed like the sort of thing people would do to excuse following a nut job like Manson or Koresh. But now I think his existing was a later invention.

Your post seems to indicate that there was more behind your banning than just the use of a pseudonym.

What do you mean by verifiable? That word's been tossed around a lot lately.
