    Write it on the business end of a baseball bat…apply repeatedly to face of batshit loony toons Christ-tard until it sinks in or the problem solves itself when they stop twitching and expire.Someday we’ll cure diabetes, AIDS, cancer and even Ebola…but the cure for “stupid and proud of it” will still elude us. Trust me…the above technique never fails.

    Isn’t it a bit of a mistake to frame the “atheist vs theist” debate as hinging completely on the validity of evolution? It gives these Christ Cult dipshits a strawman to poke holes in, whereas they’d otherwise have no argument whatsoever to support their position. I believe in evolution, but atheists really don’t need to claim that we know exactly where everything came from – there’s a little something called the “burden of proof” that I wish more atheists would invoke. It brutally kills any “debate” with a Christian right from the start.

    In the name of Jesus I command you demons from hell to leave these children of God and return to the depths of hell where you belong. Lord God fill them with your spirit that is true wisdom. In the name of Jesus Christ I pray! Amen!

    Spirituality and God are not conclusive to Christianity. You can have evolution and a creator in the same story. Reality is not just black and white, there are many shades. I think common sense would dictate that none of this was by chance. But again we think we are so goddamn smart and intelligent in this wonderful age of ours. Unfortunately the rest of history will beg to differ.

    There is an opposite to everything in this reality, 2 opposites that tell a complete story. Alltho I am not religious by any means the spirituality that religion tries to explain is 1 side, and science is the other. We are coming close to realizing this..We need both sides to explain our FULL reality. Not just our biological reality.

    But for these wonderful people who forget that a painting needs a designer even tho it was the evolution of the drawing that finally materialized the final art.

    Just because the Gods of our humanly religions are either A not real or exagerated or B something completely different than what we had first imagined does not mean there is not an ultimate creator.

    And i dont care who you are, richard dawkings or not. You do NOT have conclusive proof that a creator does not exist.

    The ignorance and stupidity of our times will for surely be remembered for a long long time.

      Claiming that because someone cannot prove that something supernatural does not actually exist is not evidence that it does exist. It is a silly superstitious delusion.
