websnarf ::: Favorites As I explained in my video about "How I became an Atheist", the existence of a book does not imply that its contents are sound. Not surprisingly this is a *NEW* book, that has not yet been definitively debunked, besides the two minute job I just did. 07-01-20 02:00:10 _____________________________________________________
Prepoceros ::: Favorites How does repeating a book's conclusions debunk it? Those differences are hardly "borderline noise": $88 in $642 (assuming secular people mostly give to secular causes) is 14%. I know that lots of books are crap. I'm willing to consider this one, as I said, because I've heard people whose opinions I trust report on it without disdain. Perhaps it will eventually be debunked, but so far I've seen nothing of the sort. 07-01-20 10:23:28 _____________________________________________________
Prepoceros ::: Favorites You are an atheist, BTW. 07-01-20 10:28:51 _____________________________________________________
Prepoceros ::: Favorites (I should mention that I'm not championing this book unequivocally -- it's not a pet of mine -- but I didn't want to see a comment like the one you made cheered loudly without even a whimper of protest.) 07-01-20 10:36:49 _____________________________________________________
websnarf ::: Favorites Ok, criticism accepted. Thus I should amend my comment to: "The Xians *do* bandy about figures, when they exist convenient to their case -- but strangely only those numbers not yet vetted through any process of serious scientific scrutiny". 07-01-20 15:00:57 _____________________________________________________

Rex20171 ::: Favorites Your way of thinking when it comes to religion is like saying "cars put people in boxes." How would you react if I proved to you that God is real? 07-01-27 22:01:07 _____________________________________________________
loneflower8 ::: Favorites If someone proved God to be real I would acknowledge its existence but I wouldn't really care whether I followed it or obeyed it. 07-01-27 23:42:14 _____________________________________________________
