Hitchens might be my new man crush.

Good to know that. He will make you think differently and you will be the better for it 🙂

He spoke with an eloquence and command of the English language that few possess while delivering his cogent arguments that left most of his opponents stupefied.

Here is a good one. Enjoy.

Thanks for the vids, Reg. I’ve listened as I’ve dosed in and out of a nap on the front porch. Hitchens might be my new man crush.

@Simon, The debate between David Quinn, the Catholic apologist and Michael Nugent of Atheist Ireland continues here.

Here is Hitchens with WL Craig to his left and Doug Wilson on is right and 3 other apologists there.

“She then started citing scripture to me so I joined in and we had a battle rap of Bible quotes. She only know a few Gospel lines and that is no match for 2 Timothy 2:15”

😂😂😂

I got the most awesome scene in my head reading that.

The article by Michael Nugent “How do atheists and Christians justify morality?” is interesting, and the objection is interesting too.

LMFAO!

No, but I am happy to buy him a beer afterwards 🙂

This is me:

I used to help man a table for Atheist Ireland on the main street in Dublin. It was good fun. Occasionally…[Read more]

Is this you Reg?

Thanks, Reg!

Hi Jody,

Here is Hitchens debating Wilson. Maybe too long to watch in one go but plenty of excerpts on Youtube.

Morning, Reg!

Interesting read on justifying morality.  I want to dig deeper.

Reading about Doug Wilson makes my eye twitch.

Have a great week everyone!!

Some verses from God’s Funeral by Thomas Hardy.

‘And, tricked by our own early dream
And need of solace, we grew self-deceived,

In some countries you gain .Othi g by supporting non-believers and face consequences (even if you are a believer). It definitely takes courage.

But Reg is right that we also ought to stand up for oppressed religious groups. For example the Uigur Muslims in China who are in concentration camps being radically brainwashed to be less religious and…[Read more]

That Vedic Math video is good.

I help defend the rights of religious minorities when they have their human rights threatened by the religious majority. Members of the Catholic majority faith (here in Ireland) are amongst some of the most ignorant and vulgar humans I have ever met. Whatever is against their faith is…[Read more]

Atheist House Democrat calls it ‘unconstitutional‘ to cite God in hearing oaths.

You go, Jared Huffman…..Since all politicians must serve their financial masters and those very masters want the voting public to be irrational and opiated, it takes courage to stand up for non belief.

Thanks, Reg!
