  1. The 19 most condescending things people say to atheists Not a great list, and not enough exposition on each item. But mostly a good try.

    Oh boy he's babbling again. Ok, enjoy.

    Goodbye

    Not entirely sure how that relates to topic.
  4. Oh ok. The name Beetlejuice is spoken three times over the course of this series. Immediately after the third time, a familiar figure can be seen in the background, walking past. *** One of the characters apparently realizes he's on a TV show and makes reference to its upcoming cancelation. [It's long since been canceled].
  5. You'll find that is a common theme in these articles. The atheist was declared the loser of the debate without a single example of a failed argument or a successful rebuttal, based on the response of a single person. Oh well.
  6. Into the mind of a convert. Not really impressive to me, but your thoughts may vary.
  7. Ronald Reagan's personal argument for intelligent design. Please note this is not a political discussion. Read the article before commenting, and stick to the topic as raised WITHOUT venturing into the political angle.
  8. Relationship with apologist changes heart of atheist. Menu Relationship with apologist changes heart of atheist JUNE 5, 2024 | SOURCE: TEXAS BAPTISTS Eric Hernandez, apologetics lead and millennial specialist with Texas Baptists’ Center for Church Health, struck up a long-distance friendship with Daniel Nieto at a time when Nieto considered himself an atheist. (Texas Baptists Photo) Teresa Young SHARE THIS ARTICLE FacebookTwitterLinkedInEmailShare After deciding the church didn’t have answers to his many questions about spiritual matters and the soul, Daniel Nieto declared himself an atheist at age 15. From that point, he dove into YouTube video debates between Christians and atheists, never encountering anyone who could change his opinion. “My favorite debaters were atheists, and they made sense to me at the time. I knew there were geniuses who were Christians, but I felt like they were wrong,” said Nieto, a 32-year-old resident of Bakersfield, Calif. “I was debating online all the time, but no one could answer my questions.” In late 2021, Nieto watched a debate between Aron Ra, an atheist activist, and Eric Hernandez, apologetics lead and millennial specialist with Texas Baptists’ Center for Church Health. Expecting the same results he always had experienced—Christians with weak arguments being blown away by the strong-spoken atheists—Nieto was surprised to see the opposite outcome. “I’m really into philosophy, and when I started hearing Eric talk, he was pointing out things I’d never thought about before. It blew my mind a little, and I feel like Aron embarrassed himself in that debate,” recalled Nieto, noting he watched the debate at least a dozen times.
  9. I will be using this thread to highlight the daily alerts I get from Google on the subject of atheism. I will share links, along with thoughts, on articles that pop up, UNLESS those articles force a discussion of politics. The topics raised by each article is fair game for exploration and discussion. The source of the articles are also fair Gane in determining whether they are trustworthy or biased. If you believe I let a political topic slip in, report it or let me know and I will delete it.
  10. I thought we didn't wait for confirmation on the one-line/EZ games
  11. Yes Carly Simon, but just getting the song was enough for that one
  12. I can confirm the first half. He might have said it to George, Lionel, Louise or any number of Black guest stars.
  13. Hawaii Five O ... "I ain't no bigot. I'm the first guy to say, 'It ain't your fault that youse are colored.'"
  14. Come run with me now; the sky is the color of blue you've never even seen in the eyes of your lover.
  15. The title was easy. It's the artist that has me stumped Yummy Yummy Yummy By... Ohio Drifters?
  16. "The following takes place between 6 a.m. and 7 a.m."
  17. Five years later, WW is up, but... "I'm gonna need a hacksaw."
  18. Life is a mystery Everyone must stand alone I hear you call my name And it feels like home.
  19. It was Under the Boardwalk Followed by Me and Bobby McGee
  20. He often wrote in the nude. After his death, it is said that 2 million people lined the streets of the city. The population of the city was around 2.5 million. Cheated on his wife with his mistress. Cheated on his mistress with another mistress. Cheated on all of them with a woman in a relationship with his son. On completion of his best known work (maybe a tie for first place on that), he sent his publisher a letter asking for feedback. The letter read, in its entirety: ? The publisher responded: ! Who is this author? [Extra credit, name either the book or the OTHER famous book he wrote].
  21. "Will you marry me?" "Maybe." "You call that an answer?" "You want another answer? Ask another girl." ***
