Wow. That was really difficult for me to follow but it was very interesting (I saw all five parts).
If today you can take a thing like evolution and make it a crime to teach in the public schools, tomorrow you can make it a crime to teach it in the private schools and next year you can make it a crime to teach it to the hustings or in the church. At the next session you may ban books and the newspapers...
Ignorance and fanaticism are ever busy and need feeding. Always feeding and gloating for more. Today it is the public school teachers; tomorrow the private. The next day the preachers and the lecturers, the magazines, the books, the newspapers. After a while, Your Honor, it is the setting of man against man and creed against creed until with flying banners and beating drums we are marching backward to the glorious ages of the sixteenth centry when bigots lighted fagots to burn the men who dared to bring any intelligence and enlightenment and culture to the human mind. ~Clarence Darrow, at the Scopes Monkey Trial, 1925
Politics is supposed to be the second-oldest profession. I have come to realize that it bears a very close resemblance to the first. ~Ronald Reagan

You think too much of yourself buddy, just a heads up: you are not the first self righeous theist in this forum, nor do I expect you to be the last.

Again a bunch of baseless assertions without specifics. You have no idea what I think of myself. You really need to learn basic argumentation "buddy".

You should really try reading the rest of the forum before making such stupid statements.

Okay, how about this for a refutation of the 'argument': if logical absolutes exist only in God's mind, then they are not absolute, they are contingent. If God's mind were different, A could equal not A, which is nonsense. So the argument actually raises the possibility that, for instance, a chair might not be a chair. Great work there. Furthermore, a simpler explanation of logical absolutes is that they are a conceptual description of physical objects; they describe the nature of all physical things.

Howzat?

'False religion' is the ultimate tautology.

You've got to prove your worth our time before you'll get taken seriously. Start a thread and state your arguments for the existence of God Wink

I don't think your time is worth that much anyway buddy xD

Still awaiting a reply on that other thread btw

Kind of makes me think some of the regular posters on here just prefer talking shit with christian shit talkers rather than questioning their own behaviour.

.. or should i say... rather than questioning anything of any meaning instead of repeating the same shit over and over.
