    The Atheist Delusion

    Would his reasoning and logic be just as valid and convincing to you if it were coming from a person of completely different faith? "Why don't you accept Gaea as the creator of the Heavens and of all life on Earth? The evidence is clear. Christians know it to be true, but avoid accepting it out...

    Have you seen the one where Ray finally realizes what speciation is and sits there dumbfounded for a minunte and a half? It's beautiful.

    Why does God not talk to us?

    Well if this isn't just the most leading question in history, I don't know what is.

    Everyone has a religion

    I don't believe in any god that I've heard of so far. What word would you use to describe someone like that? Personal philosophies and religions are two very different things. That's true for those who care to think on such things. But, again, philosophies and religions are not equivalent...

    New study finds as many as 5.7 million illegal aliens have voted

    A research group, or just one dude making some claims based on shoddy assumptions? It's on the JustFacts website, but it's not an official study. You should be clear. Also, 2016 isn't what I would call a fresh look...

    Talking Snakes, Donkeys and Bushes

    Either the writers themselves didn't know when or how to distinguish between literal or figurative storytelling, or Theists are picking and choosing which is which based on convenience. Either way, there's a really big problem with your argument.

    world oil reserves gone in 19 years

    Absolutely. Atomic energy should be our workhorse, while the renewables that we're currently proficient at harnessing would continue to expand and improve, hopefully to the point that they provide the majority of the world's energy needs. It would also help to foster and create a more...

    Why do humans allow suffering?

    This. As societies progress away from fundamentalist and/or dogmatic beliefs, they progress towards more egalitarian behaviors. It takes forever, it seems, because there is always a facet of said society that tends to actively work against change. But, for most of our history, we've tended to...

    world oil reserves gone in 19 years

    I would really like to see us finally take concrete steps towards a progressive technological future, built on efficient and sustainable energy sources. Our current approach, as you've said, is akin to exclaiming "Hey! Let's burn that old dirty stuff over there!" It's crazy.

    What I like about RF

    I think a good lively debate, even against people we generally agree with on most things, just helps to keep us all a bit more honest in our thoughtful endeavors. Just when we think we've got something figured out, here comes a stringent naysayer to test your conclusions... RF is great...

    Is Bible literal young earth Christian fundamentalism turning people away from God?

    Good. Then we agree on something. The Christian faith.

    Leftie Students Are Completely Silent on the Bigotry of Islam

    Bill Maher has a pretty good segment on this from a year or so back, and he's not wrong. (All I could find without putting too much time into it.) https://www.salon.com/2014/10/10/bill_maher_and_the_liberal_conundrum_progressives_religion_and_extremism/

    Democratic States Oppose Trump Tax Reform Which Makes Wealthy Pay Fair(er) Share

    I don't disagree. I think benefiting from loopholes and exploiting unintended parts of the tax code for personal gain is gross.

    Democratic States Oppose Trump Tax Reform Which Makes Wealthy Pay Fair(er) Share

    It may technically apply to everyone, but only a small percentage of any population is going to be in a financial situation where they can deduct or exempt $10,000 from their property tax bill (and it be beneficial.) *EDIT That being said, you're absolutely right that the people protesting it...
