    Atheism

    Religion. It's hard to swallow, and you spend a lot of time feeling guilty, but you get to be part of a very special secret!

    Burden Of Proof

    Hippies are best diluted with acid. Lysergic, not Hydrochloric. Though it would be cool to watch the latter on the former.

    Atheism

    You use this as an insult. You believe in imaginary things for which there is no possible proof. You disbelieve things for which there is now solid evidence, such as evolution, because you are horrified by the thought that you might be related to a primate, and may invalidate your holy roller...

    Atheism

    You would have to ask Larry. Interesting to see you read stuff that leads to White Power websites and the like. It's interesting to see how much hate people have for another group of people that are supposed to have murdered an individual that in all probability never existed, and was written...

    Await my what? Why don't you just start posting blank messages and save yourself the typing.

    Text of Canada's C15 Bill Marijuana clause

    I kind of wonder if they're using it as a power play to get the Conservatives to play ball on a couple of issues, and then will rescind it once they regain power. I haven't voted for any of the major parties in years. I've voted Green, usually because the candidates where I was living...

    Burden Of Proof

    Unless you define what you are attempting to prove, you prove nothing.

    Atheism

    Hey, what's wrong with Larry peeing on Jesus? I find the guy annoying and don't watch his show, but peeing on Jesus can't be any worse than shitting on the Constitution, and Christians have been doing that for years, attempting to bypass the whole bit about "separation of church and state"...

    Atheism

    Well, if it will give you comfort I'd be happy to go Elite and give you some Negs as well so your persecution complex doesn't suffer.

    Atheism

    Correlation does not equal causation. Show me a link between prayer and SAT scores. It wouldn't have anything at all to do with military spending consistently getting the lions share, and school funding the shaft during Republican terms. Or the "teach to the standardized test" method of funding...

    Burden Of Proof

    No. But you're reading comprehension is only slightly better than Babs. You just know how to use the editor. But you're right. Attempting to prove any god is a HUGE waste of time. But there's an even bigger waste of time. Worship of something you can't possibly know exists.

    Atheism

    Unless you are able to prove the existence of a god, any point of living you currently have is godless.

    Atheism

    And Babs *still* keeps bringing up the neg rep that she absolutely doesn't care about whatsoever. There must be over 30 posts by her about it.

    Atheism

    I'll provide you with a list if he can not do so off hand. http://techskeptic.blogspot.com/2007/12/atheist-charities.html See, when atheists get together and do good deeds they don't stick a symbol on top of it and claim it in the name of a religion. The only thing uniting them is a common...

    Atheism

    You're dead wrong there. Bill Maher is a crackpot. Just because he's not religious doesn't mean he's immune to believing in other crazy stuff. He's a big supporter of medical quackery. Pharyngula, a popular biological science and anti-bullshit website regularly tears him a new one, and I've...

    Burden Of Proof

    Santa Claus was based on the actions of a dutch philanthropist who was good to children. Santa Claus today is a corporate icon intended to make you spend money. It is not a force for good, but for indulgence.

    Burden Of Proof

    As long as you use the capitalized "God" you get lumped in with the Christians, as the word was subverted to monopolize the very concept and dismiss all others. A rather sneaky, yet effective, ploy. Deists need a word that hasn't been co-opted yet. Of course as soon as they come up with one...

    I dunno that I have any interest in joining the philosophy group. I don't have much use for philosophy either. :) I just don't find it as offensive as dogma.

    A Gift From God

    The above biblical quotes applied to all plants and fruits yielding seed would kill if you took it literally. Some fruiting plants produce cyanide. The birds that feed on them can ingest it safely, but a human would quickly die. If you consider the quote literally it's suicide, and false. If...
