Possibly the most reasonable Christian yet

A combination of mild heat exhaustion and a little too much Southern Comfort left me a little slower than usual in my thinking.

Stefan might be the nicest, most reasonable Christian I’ve ever had the pleasure of speaking with.

Unfortunately I didn’t give him the discussion he deserved. A combination of mild heat exhaustion and a little too much Southern Comfort left me a little slower than usual in my thinking. Stefan was gentlemanly enough not to mention it though.

To be honest, part of me would prefer not to post this one but there’s no integrity in that. The agreement was that we post it on YouTube and it would be dishonest of me to renege on that agreement after the event. Oh well… nobody’s perfect!

Rebutting foolish theists

The stupidity of some theists is beyond parody.

I recently made a simple video about atheism and how it’s not a worldview. It’s a simple, straightforward point which I thought was both straightforward and obvious.
However, no matter how clear the situation is my comments attracted a few theists who not only failed to understand the point but who then went on to display their stupidity in quite gargantuan ways with ridiculous claims as they struggle to maintain a moral high ground they clearly don’t deserve.
So, instead of spending my whole weekend rebutting these fools I just made a little video. Here it is.

Discussion with another Eastern orthodox Christian

Is religious belief sufficient reason to dismiss the experiences and validity of others?

Meet Joshua. He’s an Eastern Orthodox Christian with some interesting ideas. I had high hopes for this one although it didn’t turn out quite as I’d expected. What’s your opinion?

Joshua was very keen to prevent me from actually making my points, even when he’d asked specific questions. However I have several videos that will explain what I meant. They’re linked below…

Godless morality

Christians and other people of faith claim that unbelievers cannot have morality. That’s ridiculous. Here’s why…

Christians often tell me that I can have no morality without a belief in God.
That’s nonsense.
Here’s why…

Meet the maniacal Evangenitals

So terrified of human choice,
They try to silence every voice,
They attack,
All that doesn’t stack,
With their appaling bigotry!

Meet the Evangenitals (AKA the frightened little babies of the Christian world). They’re not the norm, many Christians are way more tolerant than these fools but they are the ones who’ve weaponised Christianity against the rest of us.

Not in Jesus’ name!

Such violence and prejudice in Jesus’ name. And most moderate Christians say nothing.
Stand up for your Jesus…
Not in His name!

Are you a moderate Christian?

If so, here’s your chance to make a genuine difference.

Stand up for your Jesus. Join the rest of us and enter the fight against the renewed rise of fascism…

In Jesus’ name!

Part 2 with Jonathan

It is my belief, which I told Jonathan several times throughout the discussion, that he simply is not equipped for this type of discussion.

This is both the longest and the most infuriating conversation I’ve had with a Christian. It’s definitely what you might think of as ‘long form’. It is my belief, which I told Jonathan several times throughout the discussion, that he simply is not equipped for this type of discussion. I have advised him to learn the basics of his religion and to actually read his Bible.

In the second half he demonstrates his utter contempt for anyone who doesn’t agree with him, his dismissal of any notion of equal rights and just how much he deserves the rarely applied (but in this case very well deserved) label of ‘Christofascist’.

His misogyny, racism, homophobia and xenophobia are expressed with a smug pride that has to be seen to be believed.

If we give people like Jonathan an inch they’ll drag us all straight back to the bronze age!

Discussion with an Eastern Orthodox Christian

Atheism is not a belief system.

Meet Jonathan Stephan, an Eastern Orthodox Christian from America who has some very particular views on atheism and the utility of Christianity.

Deus vult: an American dream

Jesus isn’t coming guys,
No raptured flight into the skies
This world needs compromise,
Your sabre=rattling won’t change that,
So calm down, Mr. Trump – you sanctimonious twat!

This might be it,

Could be the end,

Stinking of shit,

The Pastor’s friend,

Might just have started World war 3

This Yankee Christianity

Could be the death of you and me

Deus vult!

It’s a death cult,

You’ll see!
