In that case I'd have to say I'm 8 on te Dawkins scale.

I have 40 of waterstones vouchers that are destined for the popular science section. There's a few I've been meaning to pick up.

Reading it through for the second time now, it really is an excellent book. The athiests guide to Christmas is good too. Concentrates more on being funny but still raises good points.

YouTube - Broadcast Yourself. The female news reporter seems to misunderstand the point of the replacement sign.

i just had to point this out again,nit min. its like: "oops, i got aids and it was bad, and i'm not happy, then i went to the zoo, i saw the p-anda's andit was good."

*cough* i tried to make sense of this as above

"worst post ever" "A simple mistake resulting in a permanent mark on my body"

*achievement unlocked - shagged a jehovas witness and her ma' - 50G" .....discuss actually, there is no room for discussion: This is a very sensitive subject...

Minutes after reading this the ad came on the tv. Let her talk!

They still haven't turned up so I've decided just to go out for lunch instead. If they keep hassling me I'll have no reservations about telling them where to go. They've been perfectly nice so far though and I think if I tell them I'm just not interested they'll be accepting of that. You can request to be put on a no call list.

I think being gay is a big no-no for the witnesses right? Or even co-habiting with my girlfriend beige marriage should do the trick.

They only left me with "AWAKE!" (which is pretty rambling) I don't think we'll be getting as far as an initiation but I got a chuckle out of that. I hope they don't arrive anytime soon. Still trying to shift a cold and u really can't be done with it today. They don't believe in divorce right? If I tell them I'm divorced would that be enough to put them off?

I've just been reading over some of the booklets the JW's left me before they arrive. I like this opening line in one of them: "a new group of athiests has arisen in society. Called the new athiests, they are not content to keep their views to themselves. Rather, they are on a crusade 'actively, angrily, passionately trying to persuade the religious to their point of view". What exactly were they doing at my door last week?

Uh-oh, i better put my wild behaviour in check. Quoting someone out of context must be high on the lords list of brimstone related vengeance. "Then the Lord rained brimstone and fire on Sodom and Gomorrah, from the Lord out of the heavens"* Genesis 19:24.* "Turning the cities of Sodom and Gomorrah into ashes, condemned them to destruction, making them an example to those who afterward would live ungodly"* II Peter 2:6.*

"what is mind? doesn't matter. What is matter? Never mind" - HJS.

It's already heading that way! I'll have to check that out. I missed it when it was on.

I'm with you now. So do you believe if this architect god exists that he doesn't really care about our progress? As in, yes, he created us but didn't necessarily hang around to find out what became of us?

Hawking stated a few months ago that when he uses the word "god" he means whatever driving force was behind the creation of the universe. He isn't referring to an old man with a White beard sitting on a cloud or any other incarnation of the god in the Christian sense. I believe he could have been talking about dark matter in that quote?

Just to take you out of context for a second. I could have made it even worse but that's not cool. The only real "evidence" of god is a dusty old work if fiction, homosexuals on the other hand are quite real.

Shit, they're on to me. The imperfections I listed before by the way. The incest, the jealousy etc.

Obama does Etc. There are plenty more!

How so? I was talking about the way god is portrayed in the bible. If he is meant to be omnipotent (you get pills for that now) and infallible how can he have all these mortal imperfections? I've met plenty of religious people who have berated my opinions. I guess you've just been lucky so far. I'm not saying theists are cunts, I'm saying their lord and saviour is.

I tried to avoid this initially but I find it's best to just go with the flow.

Well done for getting a bill and ted quote in and keeping it on context. Excellent post. It's the whole vengeful, incestuous, bigoted, homophobic jealous yet omnipotent part I find hard to get my head around. Also if you ask most religious people, "are your parents religious?" they will say yes. It's just passed down brainwashery.
