The 4th century forger who wrote those words was clearly a liar.
People keep telling me
Of Jesus’ historicity
Of witnesses, contemporary
Proofs of authenticity.
So let’s examine the main claims
The oft-repeated ancient names
Josephus, Eusebius,
Tacitus and Pliny
And finally…
The one you don’t know…
What a coincidence that your wishes and financial needs match so often your God’s desires.
What a coincidence that your Pastor’s wishes and financial needs match so often your God’s desires.
Who’d’ve thunk it?
keyboard warriors tend not to be quite so impressive in person
Sam Sheets is a Christian. He thought it might be fun to claim that atheists are just trolls who don’t want to debate. He claims we have a warp (sic) sense of reality. Finally, demonstrating all the self awareness of a woodworm in a house brick he asks the atheists “What’s with the hostility?”
This video is what happened when I took him on. I’m afraid keyboard warriors tend not to be quite so impressive in person. Sam ran away after 40 minutes spent demonstrating how little he knows of his religion, his bible or rational thought.
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!
Your God myth is far less dangerous than the things you do in His name!

I guess they were too busy hurting others to read Matthew 25…
“Whatsoever you do to one of the least of these, my brethren, do you also unto me.”
There are two kinds of Christian. Some are genuine, sincere, compassionate and strive to be a source for good in the world. They’re the ones who are represented in the old hymn, ‘Make me a channel of your peace’.
Then there is the other kind. These Christians are stuck in the Bronze age mindset of the Old testament. They prefer oppression over peace, nationalism over fellowship and hatred over love. I guess they were too busy hurting others to read Matthew 25…
“Whatsoever you do to one of the least of these, my brethren, do you also unto me.”
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!
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.
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!
But then I learned about the much more serious human tragedy that ensued
Two videos…
This week saw yet another in a very long line 0f failed raptures. There have been prophets and other assorted scoundrels promising apocalyptic rhapsodies since before that ancient Pharaoh had his minions put the first sandstone blocks together like ancient lego-based experiments in geometry.
At first I thought this was just another amusing interlude. Another crank claiming to know the end was nigh. That was my attitude when I posted this video…
But then I learned about the much more serious human tragedy that ensued. So I made this…
