“And most scholars believe the bible to be the most accurate history book ever written.”
Most scholars?
You’re either very confused, exaggerating, or lying.

We don’t know who wrote most of the Bible. Historians are leery about trusting history from anonymous writings. You can’t tell who wrote it, when, or why. And you still need corroboration.

For instance, one historian from Florence described the city population as being mostly educated. We know who wrote it, and we know when he wrote it, but was he accurate or was it just a fluff piece bragging on his home town?
But we also have the tax records from that time. And most of the people who filed taxes filled out their own tax forms. They didn’t have to hire scribes to write names and numbers. SO there’s corroboration.

Moses is supposed to have written the first five books of the Bible But the 5th has the description of Moses’ funeral. So that’s actually counter to tradition. We don’t know who wrote that part, and we don’t know how much of the five books that person (or anyone else) wrote.
So, not allthat useful a history document, as we CANNOT TELL how accurate the history fucking is.

At another part, King David asked for money to build the Temple. Someone gave him a lot of darics. That’s a coin named after the king who invented them. Darius. Darius was a few centuries AFTER David. Anachronisms are not the key detail of accurate histories.

“1. It defies Yahweh’s sovereignty and morality in nearly every article and amendment.”
Yes. It also defies Allah’s sovereignty and morality; Zeus’ sovereignty and morality; the IPU’s, the FSM’s, and Odin’s.
This is to your benefit.

“2. It’s the reason America is teetering on the precipice (or, actually, already falling into the chasm) of moral depravity and national destruction.”
Or, not.

“3. Every problem America faces today can be traced back to the fact that the framers failed to expressly establish a government upon Yahweh’s immutable morality as codified in His commandments, statutes, and judgments.”
Yes, that was their intent. Yep.

“4. Identifying and repenting of the Constitution, as the national idol it represents, holds part of the answer for restoring America to her 17th-century Christian roots.”
The Christains you refer to are not the ones that made this country. Sorry, not sorry.

“5. Any hope of a future generation establishing a government of, by, and for Yahweh depends upon our exposing the Constitution’s heresy and instilling Yahweh’s law in the hearts and minds of our children and grandchildren.”

“Evolution? Are you nuts!?!”
Forty quatloos your arguments aren’t going to touch on my accepting evolutionary theory.

“Besides the obvious fact that institutions of "higher learning" are breeding grounds for Evolutionist infidels,”
Nothing in Evolution requires a theist to give up their belief in God. All of science is neutral on the supernatural. If you just change your perception of Genesis to a parable, you have to change nothing else.

“an article from FOX regarding a recent Gallup poll shows that less than 40% of Americans believe in evolution, and less than 25% of high school-educated people believe in the ridiculous nonsense.”
Okay, and I care for a popularity argument because…?

“Well, with no evidence for the "theory,"”
That’s a lie.

“no "transitional fossils" (which were a problem for Darwin and still give Evolutionists epileptic fits)”
Actually, we know, now, that every single fossil we’ve ever found is transitional. No fits. That’s a fucking lie.

“and belief only in places full of educated idiots,”
I have high school and that’s it. I accepted evolution before I left the Church i grew up in.

“proponents of this nonsensical pipe dream need to crawl back into their scummy little holes and suck an egg.”
Yeah, that’s a reasoned response to a scientific debate. Sure.
Damn, should have bet 400 quatloos…

“Where do you get that thought that all religions sqash free thought?”
Hehe. Growing up religious.
I had questions. Half of all the replies i got were blaming me for asking the question. Got the same response in every religion i tried after that.

Also, after 9/11, a priest said that doubt did not make you a failure. After so many deaths out of nowhere, someone would expect you to question god, god’s plan, the US’ purpose, stuff like that. And doubt was good, doubt was fine, as long as you come back to god at the end of it.
He got raked through the coals by all sorts of believers for suggesting any Christain have thoughts!
See also the behavior of Christains when the prayer that opens a legislature is Muslim, Hindu, pretty much anything but Christain or orthodox Jewish.
You guys CANNOT stand thinking because your theology can’t stand up to thinking.

“If anything, its ATHEISM and EVOLUTION that does NOT ALLOW FREE THOUGHT OUTSIDE THE PARAMETERS OF THOSE BOGUS THEORIES.”
Well, if you’d offer evidence that either are wrong or incomplete, rather than quoting your bible, then maybe we’d examine that evidence.

I’ll buy self-assured. Not too much social anxiety to go sit in the playroom.
Better educated, you probably mean they agree with you that this is a Christain Nation and Evolution is junk.
And by ‘critical thinking’ you have to mean they can support the bullshit conclusions you approve of.

“They win academic scholorships at a RIDICULOUS rate compared to children "educated" in the failed public school system.”

“BigBandit01: Why is it that whenever a person near a pro choicer gets pregnant, they try to pressure them into having an abortion?”
No. Not even slightly. My wife and I are both pro-choice. We have three kids. And she had one miscarriage. In some states, today, she’d have been forced to carry the dead twins to term.
But, no, pro-choicers do not pressure anyone into an abortion.

“They’re not pro choice, they’re pro abortion.”
This is a strawman.

“I see stories all of the time where people are pressuring their friends, daughters, sisters, and girlfriends into getting an abortion, but it’s never about the mother’s choice is it?”
Where do you see these ‘stories’? On perfectly neutral sites I’m terribly sure?

“It’s about pushing this evil act onto others and trying to normalize something cruel.”
It’s already normal, we’ve been having abortions for almost as long as we’ve been having pregnancies.

“No point to this post other than to call out that fact really, I don’t have any burning questions or anything.”
So, just lying. Or spreading gossip.

“It’s just ridiculous to me that someone who advocates for freedom to choose and control over their body would try to force their will on another person’s body and revoke their choice. It’s seriously messed up.”
I think you need to look more closely at those stories. I imagine after someone gets pregnant and says something like ‘this is going to screw up my degree’ or ’this’ll ruin my chances at (Phil In The Blanque)’ someone mentions that ‘abortion is an option,’ and the story you read is ‘MY advisor tried to force me to have an abortion!’

“Feminists think it's perfectly fine to pick on men for being short or bald, but they consider it body shaming to pick on women for being fat or not shaving.”
Of course, you’re an incel, so it’s POSSIBLE that after YOU point out that a woman’s fat, she points out that you’re short, and you scream ‘Persecution!’
Further, it’s possible that when you work up the nerve to ask a girl to study together for next week’s test, she says no, and you walk away muttering that she hates bald men.
Here’s a hint, bubbles, YOU should think all four are body shaming and NOT DO IT.

“There is no existing way to make yourself taller except for elevator shoes which barely make any difference and the existing ways get your hair back are too expensive for most men to afford.”
Yeah, you’re putting way too much weight on your body traits and not enough on your personality.

“Meanwhile, women can easily go on a diet or shower to get rid of the things they consider body shaming.”
So, that’s your defense, huh? It’s her fault you mention her weight, she could always just improve herself?
But when someone suggests you improve YOUR dumb ass, you whine ‘PERSECUTION!’ again.

“I don't even think gravity exists. No one can see it. measure it.”
Step on a scale. Look down.

“Weigh it.”
It’s a force, not an object.
And oil companies use it.
Gravity does not always pull down to the center of the Earth. Where the Earth’s crust is dense, like a deposit of iron, it shifts gravity around it. So companies looking for pockets of gas and oil look for places where gravity is weaker.
Not something you’d ever feel, but we can detect it and measure it.
They sell this data to the Navy who provides it to missile submarines.
The variations in gravity are not huge, but they ARE big enough to alter the flight of international nuclear missiles. So my company programs the guidance systems to take these variations into account when aiming missiles for flight.

“More importantly than all the other reasons as to why I don't want a girlfriend is because I am waiting on the Lord to bring me a wife.”
All I can think of is the joke about the Believer in the flood zone.
Heavy rains come and the waters are rising. Guy goes over to his neighbor and says, “We’re evacuating, you want to ride in my four-wheeler?”
“No,” Believer says. “God won’t let me drown.”
Some time later, a deputy in an amphibious truck comes by. “This area is ordered to evacuate! Grab what you can and we’ll haul you to safety!”
“No,” Believer says. “God won’t let me drown.”
Quite a bit later, two National Guardsmen pull up. Believer is sitting on his roof, barely out of the water. “Jump!” they say, “We got you!”
“No,” Believer says. “God won’t let me drown.”
And a little bit after that, Believer is in line at the Gates of Heaven. God walks by and sees his follower there. “What are you doing here? You aren’t supposed to die for another twenty years? What the Heaven happened?”
“You let me drown!” the Believer accused.
“What? No, I did not! Did your neighbor not show up? Or the Deputy? Or the National Guardsmen?”

I can imagine you dying alone, and God telling you, “What? Did you not see the brunette? Did the redhead not show up? TELL me you didn’t miss the Twins!”

Yo.

“Well, if you are, your hypocrisy is extraordinary. In an Atheist world, no one has rights.”
Far as I can tell, we ARE in an atheist world. I don’t believe any gods exist, including yours.

No one has god-given rights, no. But we can grant ourselves rights, such as was done with the US Constitution, the Bill of rights, and a number of court decisions that set precedent.
No hypocrisy needed.

“No one is entitled to anything.”
Just what we wrest for ourselves and guarantee to our neighbors…

“In an Atheist world, the state gives and defines rights,”
Jefferson was against listing rights because he feared that literalists would limit us to those enumerated.
His, and other’s stance was that we have PLENTY of rights, just from being living humans, and the state only ‘identifies’ and ‘defends’ them.

“therefor the state is the only thing in existence that has any natural right,”
Well, if Men made the Constitution that grants the government any rights, they’re not natural rights, you illiterate goon.

“and that right is to define the rights of it's subjects.”
Yes. The Bill of rights lists some, and the Supreme Court has, many times, defined exactly what rights we have and what they mean. Such as our Miranda Rights.
And you call me a hypocrite?

"… women are attracted to confident and aggressive males which most young black men tend to be.”
Eh. I’m not all that aggressive. I could ask her if i appear confident. But i think being smarter than most of the sailors around us is what attracted her to me, and me to her.

“Meanwhile our white men are being raised by single feminist mothers to be shy and weak and submissive to women.”
Of COURSE I’m submissive to women. Or at least one woman. I swear, my wife has everything i want! She’s smart, confident, sexy, and much more worldly than I am. Whatever she wants, dude. Why would i risk driving her away?
Not all that shy, though. I mean, I’ve made 16 submarine patrols, and everyone remembers if i was in the room when something happened…
I dunno about weak. I suppose being a feminist myself would make you call me weak.
I don’t care about your opinion, though.

“Some white men are gravitating towards asian women not because of their inclination towards trad-con life style (although I'm sure that plays a part) but more so because asian women are even more submissive than our current crop of white males.”
Your approach to dating reminds me of buying a car. “I want something that’s going to be comfortable, and do what I need it to.”

Heh. ‘my role as a man’ is whatever the fuck i say it is. Not your sexist ass.

"Many on the alt right often say that white men should act more alpha”
And define ‘alpha’ as being an asshole. Good luck with that.

“Well, for starters, we need more white babies. Temporary happiness for these men will lead to long time problems for our race.”
Not a concern. As long as the gene pool survives, this is a meaningless distinction.

“Secondly, if we teach these men to be more "alpha" they will be happier and better serve themselves their families their nation etc.”
I’m plenty happy and have raised three kids to productive adulthood. I even have a grand daughter.
And not once have i tried to convince a Hooters waitress that I’m an alpha…

“We want them to be better people,”
Better alt-right people? Kind of an oxymoron.

"As for white women being anti white...many women are open to changing and adopting the political beliefs of their man.”
HAHAHAHA! Sure they are. I believe they’ll exhibit the beliefs that you’ll approve of, but they’re going to be alone in the voting booth.

“Women are naturally submissive and they want to fulfill their role as females. If we had a better crop of men, women will follow along.”
Sure, sure, that’s pure fact, uh huh.

I’ve written a lot of graphic fanfic and short stories. The feedback i get from men is mostly choreography. There are specific things they want the characters to do. Idiots like, say, you, just want there to be a penis in a vagina, they’re not too concerned about consent or enjoyment or satisfaction. As long as they come, it’s good.
Women tend to want a feeling from the story. Details don’t seem to matter AS MUCH as if they feel in control, or lack control, or threatened, or whatever.

But the thing is, a fantasy about rape still is in the control of the person having the fantasy. An actual rape is very much out of the victim’s control They’re two separate experiences.

“then why do the majority of women harbor rape and rough sex fantasies?”
Even if this is accurate about the ‘majority,’ it’s total bullshit to connect and contrast the two situations. Women (and Men!) who want to fantasize about rape are NOT the same group that wants to be raped in real life.
You, of course, will never understand the difference, because the people in your fantasies aren’t any more real than the people around you, not to your way of thinking.

The study of arches? Like, victory arches or the ones in feet?

“and now they have DNA and they claim the DNA record proves their already existing theorys.”
I think ‘confirms’ is better verb than ‘proves.’ Nothing in science is proven.
And the plural is ‘theories.’

Only if the theory was wrong. If it was right, however, then we’d expect to find confirmation someplace else when we look.
Weird, I know.

“They should be having to scramble to come up with a new theory to explain the new information.”
No, sweetie. We only do that if the new information is NOT explained by the existing theory. If the new observations can be fully explained by existing theory, then we don’t need to scramble.

Kinda like, if archaeology finds an unknown city that turns out to have been mentioned in the Bible, then you don’t need to scramble for a new one, you can just refer to the existing translation.

Not really. It’s just so patently unfair. So very many people never heard of Jesus at all in their life, why are they doomed to Hell?

Seashell fossils BURIED in the rocks found at the tops of mountains, right?
SO… The Flood topped the biggest mountains in the world AND made them bigger?
Do flood typically deposit silt on the TOPS of mountains?
So, the model is that the rains fell, the Waters below fountained up, huge amounts of dirt were displaced, along with all the vegetation in the world, the vegetation was buried and buried some more, until pressure made it into fossil fuels…
Meanwhile, surges in the water moved selected sea creatures up to the tops of mountains, but none of the wrong sea creatures that would put the lie to the theory of evolution. No puppies or wrong-era plants got moved up beside specific-strata seashells.
THEN the dirt that wasn’t used to bury coal and oil was surged up to the top of those seashells to bury them… But didn’t wash away as the water leaked away.
This water DID wash out the Grand Canyon, but not the mountaintops… Because reasons.
Even though for the Grand Canyon to be evacuated in a single event would require some amazing pressure, moving rock and mud, but that pressure didn’t affect the mountaintops? And such pressure tends to move dirt in straight lines. The Grand Canyon has curves that would not be created under that much pressure.

This all seems plausible to your creationist goals, huh?

Can’t transplant it. I suppose you could eat it, but $800 is a hell of a check for one meal. Can’t test safety equipment with it, I mean proving that your shock collar won’t damage a dead spine isn’t realistic. You’d do better proving a living piglet was protected.
I can’t see that there’s any market for this.
And it’s not legal, Dave. Human tissues from medical procedures have to be disposed of as waste. You can’t sell an aborted fetus, or an inflamed appendix.

Conservative states impose the requirement without making any effort to ensure everyone can get one.

“Creationist has [sic] never gone outside the limits of an experiment by an evolutionist”
Every single time they claim macroevolution isn’t possible, they’re outside the experiments of evolution researchers.
We’ve never found an upper limit to mutations that would prevent a gene pool becoming a different species. But creationists all the time maintain that it’s never happened and it cannot happen.

“A creationist isnt going to make up data to verify their claim”
Creationists have been caught chiseling the dinosaur tracks in Paluxy to make them look more human.

The Lady Hope story that Darwin recanted his theory is a lie. That’s made-up data.

I also think that quote-mining violates this claim. They find a sentence and take it out of context, and claim that it shows the researcher has rejected evolution.

“I finally just came out with it.. I've no clue how come I was struggling so hard.. It was the oddest thing I've felt in over three years.. I mean I've been emotional before.. But to be almost unable to speak and shaking and fumbling all over my words... it was pretty strange..”
Deep breaths. Maybe do some stretching exercises? Something to get your blood pressure down?
Eat a cookie, bring your blood sugar up? One time my blood sugar got so low i started speaking in tongues. Four Oreos cleared it right up.

“I 'm sure it was the holy spirit working through me.. that was a tough battle for me to fight... God won though.... hehe as if he wouldn't lol”
I can only think of the WKRP episode where Johnny Fever thought that God was talking to him and mumbling. The Big Guy said, if God really is talking to you, Brother, YOU WILL HEAR IT!
Pretty sure if the Holy Spirit was moving through you, you’d be amazed at how clear your enunciation was, how large your vocabulary, how convincing your arguments.

“How can you say this when it is impossible to 'observe' time slowing down in relation to acceleration as velocity approches C?”
Synchronize two atomic clocks.
Put one on an airplane.
The airplane orbits the city where the other clock is.
Time runs differently between the two points in a gravity well.
This is an observed fact.
Feel free to demonstrate how faster moving objects do NOT change their gravity-status due to some magical fuck-factor.

“There IS no 'observed evidence' to cooroborate Einstein's theory, just speculation and mathematical equations.”
Either you’re lying or you’re just ignorant about the evidence. The textbooks tend to say ‘this is a fact’ AND ‘we know this because’ and then describe the observations made. So, you’re unlearned on the science you’re dismissing.

"The imagination of Evolutionist's have thus far failed to give them much of a story on the origin of life.”
A science that isn’t evolution…

“So, they prefer to beg out of answering, even though they believe in abiogenesis.”
Feel free to show that it’s wrong?

“As far as I know, all animals have a brain, heart, and lungs.”
Yeast? I just made a loaf of multigrain bread, which always reminds me that yeast is an animal.

“Where did the heart and lungs come from?”
Every evolution textbook I’ve ever read discusses how such things develop and how we know. Try reading something that’s not creationist propaganda.

“Evolutionists usually avoid trying to answer such questions. They prefer to stick to things like "Monkeys sure do look like us?”
You’re just straight-up lying, now.

“Believe it or not many commercials have very liberal overtones and hidden messages that one would not pick up on unless one was actually trained at doing so or used to seeing.”
Or paranoid, and making it up to feel like you’re special.

“I recently saw a commercial where two men were grilling steaks outside on a patio. This commercial seemed innocent enough,” but when I saw it the second time around,”
If you’re trained to detect this liberal overtone, why the fuck didn’t you recognize it the first time?

“I noticed the two men were closer than normal”
Social distances vary between cultures. Someone from Brazil will stand very close to an American, enough to make the American uncomfortable, while feeling the American is stand-offish.
But that’s real life. This is a commercial For whatever reasons, the director told these to men where to stand. Could be they were a couple, could be that there’s only so much room on the screen for the actors AND the product, could be that the camera angle made you think they were closer than you’d be comfortable with… Either way, it’s an acting job, they’re standing where they were told to for any number of reasons.
YOU detect, what, a gay message? What would the fucking point be of slipping a gay couple into that commercial by stealth? The Campbell’s soup ad makes it clear the parents are a SameSex couple. No one has to play footsie with the topic.

“and all throughout the commercial there were kids there, but no women. Get the point?”
Yes, you’re making shit up. I have three boys. There have been MANY times in their upbringing when I was alone with them and no women were in sight. Just the other dads at Scouts. Or whoever else was in the bowling alley. Or the other attendees at the high school sports presentation.
Jeez, you’re a babbling idiot.

Parents with Inconvenient Truths about Trans #crackpot #conspiracy #transphobia

“When I spoke with parents at our ROGD meeting”
Oh, and rapid-onset gender disphoria is not a thing.
It just means that your kid hid their condition in a desperate attempt to be ‘normal,’ until they had to accept that they needed to transition.
He or she tried to satisfy you and suddenly forced you to face the facts.

“When I spoke with parents at our ROGD meeting, I asked a simple question. Every single one of them answered the same way: yes, their child was addicted to video games.”
Is this a clinical diagnosis? Kids today play a lot of video games. Addiction is a discrete issue. Have they been tested or is this just the impressions of people who desperately need someone to blame?

“At what point do we stop calling this coincidence?”
Do a survey of parents with kids your age and see just how many of them say their kid is addicted to video games. What percentage of these addicts are transgendered? Is it statistically significant? Or is it just a sign of being a teen in the 2020’s?

“There are countless videos online of gamers openly discussing taking estrogen, claiming it makes them feel calmer, more sensitive, or more “in tune” while playing.”
Yes, I can believe people who are indeed transgendered benefiting from estrogen treatments. I think you’re approaching it backwards, though.

“Whether people are comfortable acknowledging this or not, this content exists, and it reaches vulnerable minds.”
Again, you’re looking for someone to blame because your child being in the wrong body just CANNOT be real, it would be a stain AGAINST YOU and you can’t handle that.

“Sometimes I think about the movie Poltergeist, where the little girl sits in front of the television, mesmerized by the static, until she is eventually pulled inside. Not because screens are evil in themselves, but because prolonged exposure without guidance can shape perception, identity, and belief in powerful ways.”
Poltergeist was a classic. You’re a paranoid. Don’t confuse the two.

“I want to be careful here.”
You’ve already made the accusation, just go with it.

“I am not interested in promoting conspiracy theories.”
Ah. But I am old enough to remember when YOU said, ‘At what point do we stop calling this coincidence?’ That’s promoting a conspiracy theory, bubbles.

“But there is a difference between inventing conspiracies and asking reasonable questions when patterns repeat themselves with such consistency.”
No, there isn’t.
People going through the same thing will use the same language to describe similar experiences. Ask monks from four different religions about their walks with the divine. Ask addicts of four different substances about how their addiction progressed.

Honest Blunt Opinioner #fundie

“Athiests i dont understand how you can believe that we were just an accident.?”
I don’t. There are reasons for every change. Just not a plan.

“the big bang for example.”
Is not part of evolution. One strike.

"it had to have had a source. how does angry just poof out of nowhere like that?"
The theory is NOT ‘out of nowhere.’
Two strikes.

“what about the all the creatures on this planet? did they just come from one type of....whatever it is you guys say, what a cell/fungus/ and then split out and made a bird, a male a female, fish, buffalo.”
Evolution IS the explanation for all the diversity of life on this planet. You should read something. Saying you don’t understand why i believe ‘whatever it is you guys say’ is just highlighting your ignorance.
One ball.

“why is the sun in the right place for us to get enough heat?”
We evolved to the conditions on our planet. Now, what would be a poser would be if it could be proven that we evolved somewhere that the sun was closer or farther, and somehow ended up here.
Two balls.

“yea some say gravity.”
You are free to provide a better reason?
Three balls.

“how did this accidental cell know that repoduction would be needed?”
It didn’t know anything. But if it hadn’t reproduced, it would have died. And something else would have developed. Over and over until something stable was invented.
This is your third strike. One up and one down. Next batter.

“guys a creator put us here. its not that hard to figure out!!!!!!!!”
No, no, figuring out your superstition is easy.
Finding a reason to think you have the foggiest fucking clue, though, that’s a poser.

“There is evidence of Christ's resurrection.”
Nothing I’ve ever heard of…

“Ok, first off, we know He died...there are records of UNbelieving Romans who saw Him be beaten and then crucified.”
No, far as I know, only the Bible says it happened.
Even Paul makes no reference to Jesus having a physical existence on Earth.

“Now for raising...the Bible says that He rose and appeared to many of His disciples.”
The Bible that is the only source for the story of his resurrection is your corroboration for the story of his resurrection? Really?
And if one guy says ‘a thousand people saw Jesus,’ that’s still only one witness. At least until the other thousand people write their testimony.
And it may not even be 1 witness, the gospels were written 70 or more years after Jesus was supposedly alive.

“I think the porblem is that you can see how this can be proved...am I right?”
I can see that if dead people got up out of the grave when Jesus died, and then walked around the city when he rose up again, that Pilate would have mentioned it at least once in a letter back to Rome. Do we have any record of him requesting more troops or priests, because he was facing a wizard AND ZOMBIES?

“Well if you think about it logically, then you would understand that no one would risk their life to write a 'story'.”
I refer you to 9/11 and the number of Muslims who were willing to die for their religion, which you hold as a story.
I refer you to the pagans during the Holy Roman Empire, who Christains threw to the lions for not changing their religion. They were willing to die for what they held to be true, though the people with the lions thought it was a story.

“I would like to extend my deepest thanks to the man or woman responsible for this vandalism. I appreciate the action you took. Thank you for reminding me that I'm not alone.”
Always did like how deeply firm the feelings are of the party of law and order.

“It took a lot of guts to do what you did – and the fact that you haven't stepped forward to take credit makes you a hero.”
It makes them a coward. True dedication would be willing to take their knocks for doing ‘the right thing.’
This is just vandalism and ducking consequences. About as brave as dropping a Chick Tract in the lunchroom.

“It shows everyone that you are more devoted to the message than you are to the spotlight. I encourage you to keep your cover. Don't give the secular world a reason to call your name; instead, let them call for our God.”
Right, right, doing brave things for truth, as long as no one can punish you for the crime you actually committed.

“ My dose of honesty this week: I am not happy that vandalism seems to be the only way to get an atheist's attention.”
IF you didn’t have our attention, these ads would not fucking exist, idiot.

“I'm happy that I can count on other Christians to stand up for themselves and for Christians everywhere. It gives me hope.”
And by ‘stand up’ you mean duck down and avoid any consequences?
What a tool.

“I believe it is logical to believe creation since it is based on observations and not untested hypothesis.”
You use words funny.
We don’t actually have God’s testimony on creation.
We have an anonymous story attributed to Moses recording the words of God. We can’t test the veracity of any of that.
I mean, you can believe it, but there are also people who believe the story of Islam, and the story of Judaism, and the story of Hinduism, and any other myth out there. Many are contradictory, so they can’t all be true. You just pick one arbitrarily and say you’re done.
This is not logical.

“Have you ever directly benefited from a woman's action?”
Woman doctors have treated me for various conditions. Cellulitis, heart attack, some dental work, a shoulder injury.
Women nurses have prepared me for the doctor, for surgery, for treatment, and implemented the doctors’ treatments.
A woman driver got me from my house to the emergency room so i could not die from my condition.
The one time i rode an ambulance to the ER, two out of the three EMTs were women.

“After that Varg quote I've been thinking, are women completely useless outside of sex? Women are essentially useless and devoid of any substance or value.”
So you’ve never had a female waitress bring you the correct order? Never had a female hostess seat you before you died of malnutrition? No woman cashier has ever made the correct change and NOT ripped you off?

“They can't even enjoy doing something that isn't moving them higher in the social ladder. Every action they make is to improve their social standing.”
I do believe you’re absolutely full of shit.

“Supposedly women exist that are capable of thought but I have yet to meet one.”
Considering the number of female doctors I have had, you should consider yourself lucky.

Or ‘not being pregnant.’
