How come Kev didn't come back and tell Mary how a giant snail the size of his fist turned his life upside down.
I simply must know.

Indeed.
Share the wealth, PM boi. Kev won't mind, me and him are tight.
Edit: I mean that we're both parsimonious. He probably can't stand me.

You're not seeing the obstacle that I face, I would have to go dig up the information in PMland, which I'm only slightly sure still exists. I could parse the details that I can recall now, but that would only lead to a delving inquiry, as the trend would indicate. In spite of all the warnings that have reverberated back to my person, I will leave it at this: Kev has a car, Kev has old buddies, his old buddies have cars, sometimes Kev hangs out with old buddies, sometimes Kev's and his old buddies' cars hang out, some of these cars are designed to operate with forced induction. This is all I recall, I'm not taking any more questions.

'Twas me that gave the video the FST feature on Youtube by starting this thread. This is the only thread in which it exists on FST. My surprised reaction is that enough people actually followed the video from this thread to get it a high enough view count to point to FST. Ergo, I'm your godless lop-assed scarecrow teen. Did that make anyone else really horny?

The point is that she, and the rest of the halfwits that support her, like to argue that intent doesn't matter. If they get offended it's bad. To some extent that can be true, but they go overboard like you wouldn't believe. And they've got this really mental set of rules called feminism 101 to which they'll refer anyone who might disagree, together with a draconian censorship policy.
I'm not really implying that you're a massive fuckwit, tho.
I'm explaining cos I've decided that explaining jokes is cool now.

It's always been a policy of mine to do so, glad to see my spores taking effect.
I closed the tab once I saw the fat chick so I was unaware of their specific manifesto. The free speech advocate in me has pimped out the feminist in me. The pacifist in me is trying to calm the tension between them, but none of them pay him much credence after he murdered the punctilist in me. Maybe later tonight I'll drink a bunch of alcohol to put them down for awhile.

Well that's it then, I guess the point being made is that I should subscribe to some silly belief because this tool over here is building up his post count to gain access to the bt invite subsections. If god is all, then that would include god is an imaginary, idiotic, child-touching, slut-beating, three-legged, ping pong playing prick. Also, so is love.

Re: The summer 2011 totally legitimate and like official atheist thread, endorsed too
to some extent I agree to your view that only weaker ones need God or need to believe that there is a God. The concept of religion and God has been misused by us for our own selfish motives for a long time. If you see now, all the religions are just money making businesses (Big Ones). A knife can be used to cut vegetables or to operate a person but can also be used to give pain or murder anyone and this holds true for everything that exists. Similarly, the concept of God has been exploited a lot but that does not mean that God would not exist.
Everything cannot be God because simply like a father and mother create a child, they are not the child. God is our creator but how it happened is still a mystery to mankind. Of course diff ppl have their own conclusions. People derive different meanings from what is written in scriptures or even manipulate the same.
I guess all I would like to say is whether or not you believe in God.......just use the concept to encourage someone, make them stronger cos if someone believes in God, their belief in God is the only concept which can be used to help people out of their misery. just be creative :)

Re: The summer 2011 totally legitimate and like official atheist thread, endorsed too
My personal opinion is that Abraham was indeed a very wise man. The Egyptians would not allow the Hebrew slaves to worship any of their Gods, almost everything known to man was an Egyptian God. The only option was an invisible God and Abraham had the idea and contrived a way to convince the slaves of the existence of one.
Am I talking a load of crap? At least it keeps the thread alive.:lol:

may be you are right. Discussion about God is something which can never come to a conclusion.
What matters is if this vision can be used to do some good to the mankind or not.......i believe that is more important

Let's put it this way, an atheist can be a theologian. I had even considered it once, as I feel it falls in the domain of psychoanalysis.

Re: The summer 2011 totally legitimate and like official atheist thread, endorsed too
What is the cause of all causes? What is the ultimate cause? Has the universe always existed and all of "creation" is the work blind chance and chaos or is there an intelligent power behind it. The atheist is just arrogant and blind enough to declare, without any knowledge or evidence, that there absolutely can be no intelligent Ultimate cause. According to the limited powers of intellect the atheist may possess, he feels comfortable taking a particularly reasonable explanation for the existence of the universe off the table. Whether or not the atheist accepts or rejects any notions of God he is fool to imagine the only possibilities are that a non-sentinent universe has always existed or that it came into being only by blind chance.

Ok, I'll bite. You've got the particulars backwards. I dunno about you, but I only refute assertions when empircal evidence has been provided--however tenuous it might be. I can't falsify your claim, but I'm also comfortable living my life with Russell and his teapot.
Ad hominems & ignorantiams are kids' fallacies, I know you can do better.

Blind chance is a reoccurring phenomenon and is grounded in our reality. Basically, we have a general understanding of statistics, probability, and all that abstract stuff. At the least, we are capable of understanding it.
What is being rejected is the library of both wildly varied and selectively incestuous works of fiction that have served as placeholders until the world around us could be more aptly described. This practice persists in science today, and it is understanding that algebraic mechanism that provides sufficient perspective to not accept old mythologies as truths that govern our world.
That means that the offer on the table, as you put it, is archaic and silly if not irksome (due to the consequences of fervor). Your persistence in its validity is akin to me convincing you of the existence of gremlins. That's a bad analogy, I admit, since gremlins are totally real. Why else would one copy of MS Word crash with the same document and another can handle it just fine? Gremlins, that's why.

Your rejection of "works of fiction" has nothing to do with anything I said. I state only that the universe is the result of blind chance and has always existed or that there is a Creator that exists outside of the universe. I state that the atheist has no particular reason to accept or reject either of these propositions. Everything around you has a cause for its existence. The chain of causes must have a beginning. Why does the atheist insist that the cause of all causes must be non-sentinent?
It is because the atheist clings to his belief in the same many religionists cling to theirs. The atheist discards all that is true in order to feel superior and mock those who have accepted ludicrous ideas along with the truth. It is a disease of arrogance that leads them astray and it is a disease that is spreading fast in this age.

Re: The summer 2011 totally legitimate and like official atheist thread, endorsed too
So many horrible things have been done in the name of God, under the orders of The Church, following the book which is based on ideas conceived and written by man in order to control the lives of others.
Atheists, cynical as they may be, have never done such things...

You're forgetting the part that we can observe the occurrence of minutely probable events but there is no such verification for the fantasy of a metaphysical creator.
An atheist can learn and understand phenomena without having to rely on faith. It's a conclusion based on observations rather than belief.
Someone of faith can portray the same phenomena with a narrative derived from pure fantasy, and it doesn't need to be justified since there is neither truth nor a need for truth in such a mechanism.
These are completely different approaches and not simply a divided path from the same root.
For instance, perception and experience allow me to conclude that the simplest method to travel between walled rooms is via open doorways. You, on the other hand, can "believe" that the simplest method is trying to walk straight through the wall based on some folklore that has been passed down your ancestral tree. These are not two sides of the same coin, and I will not bother with what goes on between you and your helmet. If you try to convince me or a mass of people to follow suit, I will judge you accordingly.

This is the basis of antitheism. Religion as a tool for control has had so many deleterious effects on both personal and societal scales.
