Do you believe it is moral to damn those who don't do their research?
By the way, I recommend you read On the Historicity of Jesus: Why We Might Have Reason for Doubt by Richard C. Carrier
Hey, Landon, I see that your username is whyareyoudecieved. Have you ever heard “i before e, except after c”?
Yeah, I know, I spelled it wrong. Get the fuck over it. No sense beating a dead horse...
It would be more moral than beating a live horse, and there's always a demand for glue.
"Get the fuck over it."
I could say the same to you about atheists, but profanity really? That's fucking inexcusable.
Ok, that’s it, I’m not drinking anymore wine while reading your posts. ;)
Remember, Cyber, the Third Commandment of AR reading according to Arakish. The penalty for breaking that commandment can be awfully messy.
O! but beating a dead horse is fun. It is practice to prefect the spanking technique.

I've noticed that some of the theists who come here have started to describe themselves as former atheists who've seen the light and returned to the flock. I wonder if that's a new tactic taught in apologetics classes. I don't know about others, but I find "reformed atheists" more annoying than dyed-in-the-wool god-botherers.
I typically don’t believe they ever were atheist.
Of course he is not. What ex-atheist does not know that the definition is for a lack of belief in a god?
The dude has serious anger-management issues, though.
Agreed.
"I typically don’t believe they ever were atheist."
Well for a start you can't help but notice that no sooner do they proudly assert they have renounced atheism, than they prove unequivocally they don't even know what it means, by asserting it is a claim, a belief, and or a world view.
None too bright some of them, and I am straining diplomacy to it's absolute limits there.
I find that the more complex a god a theist argues for, the more they weaken their argument. Bringing up dogma only makes things worse.
I agree, the really smart ones just fix you with a smug knowing grin, and give a derisory shake of the head as if they have nothing but pity for you, then say fuck all. Nothing more annoying in my experience. I'd rather face the Spanish Inquisition to be honest.
You'd think I'd have heard it all by now, but these fundies can still produce new material to laugh at:
A fundie who thinks the Gospel's and Acts were written by the same person: that Matthew is Mark is Luke is John!
He's defintely been 'touched' by Jesus...
Show us on the doll Landon, show us on the doll where it happened!!!
"He's defintely been 'touched' by Jesus...

Damn it, wine spilled again, I'll never learn to put the glass down when reading AR.
Very funny, fair play.
Apparently I’m not the only one who is wine challenged while reading posts...
This thread may set a record for the number of spilled glasses of wine and quantity of milk blown through the nasal cavity. That's why I have a bushy mustache, to filter it going in, and catch any coming out my nose.
"He's defintely been 'touched' by Jesus...

He's lucky it was Jesus, that cunts old man did a lot more than touch Mary after all, tubbed her he did, good and proper. Immaculate conception my arse.
@Landon: Alright. I pray for all of you. You are deceived. I leave now.
And yet he's still here.
But I love people who pray for other people.
When General MacArthur left Japan, which he ruled like a shogun during the postwar Occupation, he was considering a run for the White House. On the route of his farewell motorcade to the air base in Tokyo, his Japanese fans hung up a giant banner across the road.
"WE PRAY FOR YOUR ERECTION".
We'll never know if that prayer was answered.
Why am I an atheist?
Because the bible and religion in of itself is patently absurd to the highest order.
People cannot walk on water, or fly off in to the air, there is no evidence ever of the dead reawakening and roaming the streets,
There is no evidence to support a global flood event.
And as a student of the sciences, there is zero evidence, especially in the universe at a cosmological level, that would lead one to come to such a ridiculous conclusion.
Yet you yourself are part of a religion.
Oh, FFS, are you now going to posit that atheism is a religion?
Why not, he is quickly running through almost all the worn-out deist points.
Shall we start a pool on which one will be next?
@Cyber Re: Which will be next?
I can't remember, but has he used the, "You just have to believe in your heart before the Lord presents himself to you," argument yet?
@ TM
or "Belief comes first then evidence"
or "Why did so many people die in the name of Jesus if it wasn't true?"
Oh I forgot the biggest "DO SOME RESEARCH dumb nuts"
