Here’s something that comes up quite a bit but I don’t know if I’ve ever really addressed it as a specific question. It’s something most of us have done and most of us have been frustrated by, but how, exactly, do you argue with dumb people?
Confronting “Confronting Christianity”
A while back, I looked at a video by Andy Bannister where he recommended a book called Confronting Christianity by Rebecca McLaughlin. At the time I responded, the book hadn’t been released and I said that I might take a look at it once it was out.
Now it’s out and wow, if Andy is at all impressed by this, he’s got something severely wrong with him. Yes, we all know that’s true, but let’s take a look anyhow. Continue reading Confronting “Confronting Christianity”
The Absurd Hypocritical Nature of the Left
Here’s something that I’ve noticed a lot lately and it goes a long way to showing just how clueless the political left actually are.
Now granted, the right aren’t much better at the moment, showing that the extremes on both sides need some serious professional help, but while the religious right is absurd, at least they have a memory longer than a goldfish Continue reading The Absurd Hypocritical Nature of the Left
The Religious Have no Clue!
So, today I posted part two of a video and over on BitChute, some crazy theist popped up and started making absurd accusations.
This is hardly the first time it’s happened, this guy is out of his mind, but I find it funny just how badly these people fail. So let’s go take a look at it, shall we? Continue reading The Religious Have no Clue!
Personal Experience Doesn’t Justify God
I’ve seen Matt Dillahunty say this a couple of times but I’ve always disagreed. The idea is that someone who thinks they have had an experience with the divine, that somehow justifies a belief in a god. Except it doesn’t. Only an *ACTUAL* experience with a *DEMONSTRABLE* deity would justify a belief that such a god was actually there.
Let me know when someone manages to do that. Continue reading Personal Experience Doesn’t Justify God
Dog-piling on Richard Dawkins
Not long ago, Richard Dawkins posted the above tweet and the leftist world shit it’s collective pants. What the hell else is new? Yet this time, I think people are starting to recognize the standard progressive dog whistle isn’t actually working. Lots of very influential people on the atheist and skeptical side are starting to ask questions and recognizing that this isn’t actually making any sense. So here’s my take on it and why none of this is actually a surprise.
Hope you enjoy.
Let’s Talk About Evil
I caught a video from Talk Heathen today, where a caller had some problems understanding the concept of evil from a religious context. I see this kind of thing all the time, especially from the religious and I think it’s time we talked about it.
Fair warning, this is going to make a lot of people uncomfortable. Continue reading Let’s Talk About Evil
What’s Stopping the World From Getting Better?
This came up in an atheist subreddit recently, where people were asking what’s stopping the world in general and humanity in particular from improving and my answer, as should be no surprise, is “stupid people”. It’s certainly more nuanced than that short answer, but I noticed that it was a pretty common answer to the thread.
Except a lot of those responding seem to be missing a very obvious problem: that it’s more than just the religious who suffer from this particular affliction. So let’s look at it. Continue reading What’s Stopping the World From Getting Better?
Bad Customer Service Everywhere!
Back to back today, I went to two stores and had two really awful customer service experiences, blatantly so, to the point that I’ll be calling the corporate offices of both companies in the morning to file complaints. Because this shit has to stop. Continue reading Bad Customer Service Everywhere!
Reality Doesn’t Work That Way!
It’s well-known that I have some pretty serious issues with BitChute, mostly technical in nature. The site just doesn’t work and it doesn’t show any sign of getting better any time soon. However, there are a lot of people out there who dislike BitChute for other reasons. They hate it because it actually has to follow the law and they don’t like that. These people are idiots. Continue reading Reality Doesn’t Work That Way!
