Feb 4, 2009 - re: the Kirk Cameron quote, it takes more THOUGHT to be an atheist than it does to believe in a god. Faith = absence of thought

Feb 4, 2009 - I think it'll be uploaded tomorrow, since all the other videos were uploaded one at a time. You guys know that you can upload 10 at a time now, right?

MotionFur Says:

Feb 4, 2009 - I'm loving the lecture, but there seams to be a problem with his examples about the two monuments. from CNN: "The key difference, Breyer said, was that the Kentucky displays stemmed from a governmental effort "substantially to promote religion," and the Texas display served a "mixed but primarily non-religious purpose." So maybe it's not that one has just 'been around longer.' Does anyone else have a good example where silence is treated as consent? I wanna use one when talking to my friends.

Feb 5, 2009 - I think we should post the 10 commandments everywhere- IN THERE ENTIRETY!!! That means we should list the commandments and the penalty for breaking them as listed in the bible which is death (usually by stoning)! Work on the sabbath?- STONING! Disobey your parents?- STONING! Worship a god other than Yahweh?- STONING FOR THE MAJORITY OF THE WORLD'S POPULATION!! That's a lot of rocks folks!

Feb 5, 2009 - "Does anyone else have a good example where silence is treated as consent?" In a completely different arena - research adverse possession - land law. It's a surprise to most people.

daddyleon Says:

Feb 5, 2009 - HOPE Yes, we want.

Taurine93 Says:

Feb 7, 2009 - Quinn that is symbolism

mjr256 Says:

Feb 8, 2009 - I think it's a fine example but I'd say the perfect examples are "under god" in the pledge and "In god we trust" on our money. These 2 examples are almost always brought up by Christians when they try to prove the U.S. was founded as a Christian nation. Letting them get away w/ that helps this myth to survive.

Feb 25, 2009 - reading the whole Bible instead of bits and pieces? Oh, it's somewhere under the stones and Im a lazy ,cos atheist should be a sluggard, and already too tired of makin fun with 'heavy stonin'

Jun 5, 2009 - great now atheist will complain more wow now youll never shut up

hellhammerz666 Says:

Jun 26, 2009 - Do you even understand such "complaints"? As he said, theists love to accept only THEIR point of view coming from a specific mindset, which is usually distorted when it's about someone thinking different from them. If there's one thing atheists have an advantage is objectivity. Why should we shut up? Because we don't support your feeble unsustainable arguments? Grow up some balls and expose a truly sincere and thought-through point of view instead of trying to bully people around please.
