    The Demonization of New Atheism and the Relative Desensitization to Religious Extremism

    Kk In that case, you should leave them out of public discourse as they seem to be all in your head.

    The Demonization of New Atheism and the Relative Desensitization to Religious Extremism

    "Spiritual realms of bliss": how has their existence been demonstrated? Just part of the Great Scam as far as I can tell.

    The Demonization of New Atheism and the Relative Desensitization to Religious Extremism

    As to these "big questions", they look bogus to me: just made-up guff designed to con the gullible.

    Should scientist be fired for objectively adhering to evolution while subjectively believing theism?

    Scientists can have crackpot hobbies, just like anyone else.

    Atheists attack religion* because they are ignorant

    I don't see this. Why couldn't there be multiple maximally mighty beings?

    Ask me anything about the science of Evolution :)

    The why stuff is just a trap for snaring the gullible. So is the meaning guff. Stuff just happens. I do not understand your second paragraph. What do you understand by "random"?

    Ask me anything about the science of Evolution :)

    Well done! Just think of the misfortunes that might have befallen any one of your ancestors and prevented you from happening. Every organism is a fluke. That is something worth pondering. There is no why, but there is a marvellous abundance of how.

    Ask me anything about the science of Evolution :)

    I suggest that you beware of the word "purpose". Evolution has no purpose: changes happen (mutations), some persist, some don't. If a configuration can reproduce, it may persist, or maybe not if it is unlucky. History is full of contingency.

    Why the low bar for evidence of gods?

    A nice post. Do theists have any high-hanging fruit, though?

    Creation vs evolution

    Seeing that the scriptures are just ancient folk tales and propaganda, any sensible person would expect these events to occur. Not impressive ... at all!!

    Isn't it better to be atheists?

    I find it difficult to imagine a more dangerous ideology. No wonder climate change deniers and suchlike are so prevalent.

    Isn't it better to be atheists?

    What about natural evils: floods, earthquakes, volcanoes, droughts etc? People do not cause those. What about the constant, horrific suffering in nature? People do not cause that either. Reality exhibits only pitiless indifference. No gods to be seen.

    Creation vs evolution

    Ah, yes, "spiritual discernment". That is, falling for vicious con games that delude people into believing nonsense.

    Creation vs evolution

    I hope that honest Christians would pay attention to reality and not be conned by the oogity-boogity balderdash peddled by clerics.

    Creation vs evolution

    Bah, science works from factual observation, religion from superstition. Evolution is a matter of science: your challenge is a dishonest dodge. In any case, evolution is just a simple algorithm: if you have replication with variation and selection, you will have change through time. It does...

    Creation vs evolution

    Even if there are accurate prophesies, Genesis is not therefore shown to be accurate. You need to produce evidence from reality to support creationism, not ancient fables.

    Creation vs evolution

    So, since the bible is clearly nonsensical in science matters, you disqualify Christians from participating in discussions that involve science? Really?

    Creation vs evolution

    Your problem is that the bible is not authoritative in matters of science. To advance your case, you must provide actual evidence, not the scribblings of ignorant savages.

    Origin of Sin

    Yet, the notion that one could obtain that absolution by oneself is a recent development. After all, the clerics still run the Sunday schools (or their equivalent), where the vile idea of original sin is instilled. It still keeps the pews and collection plates full.
