With all due respect, any information disseminated at this event is suspect and has no basis in scientific fact.

I can give you just as many arguments that god doesn't exist as you can produce those that say he does.  An argument is not proof or evidence.  We can argue all day, won't prove a thing.  

Have a good time at your meeting.

I could decimate Dr. Frank Turek in any debate format known to man. He's a liar, a charlatan, and an apologist. His arguments are fallaciousâ€"god of the gaps (argument from ignorance), misstating the arguments of his opponents (strawman), and attacking his opponents instead of their arguments (Ad hom).

BTW, anyone care to guess how much Dr. Frank Turek has made from his lecture series?

More than I've made in mine?  

Sounds to me like the same old, same old. Actually, with the title of it, it sounds more like Pascal's wager. Lame.

I suppose that you don't have enough faith to be an agnomist or aunicornist too.

hell i'd go just to hear their point of view. I think it would only inspire me to put my feet even more firmly on the ground and affirm my beliefs.

Can anyone lend me 150 dollars in gas?

I live very close to Plano...however, once you factor in time and the gas money; I might as well just buy the book and save myself the trouble.  http://www.amazon.com/Dont-Have-Enough- ... 1581345615  Of course, that would be if I was interested in hearing what this guy has to say...it's the same stuff, maybe in a slightly different package, that I have read over and over again.  I've gotten to the point that if someone doesn't have something new to say or a better way at looking at old arguments...I just don't want to bother anymore.

That said, I might inform some local free thinkers of the presentation in case they want to go.  I just won't be organizing any meetups centered around it.

Frank Turek shows that just because you can put "Dr." in front of your name doesn't mean your immune from the disease known as idiocy.  Thanks but no thanks, his book with Norman Geisler was torture enough.

Thank you very much.  I appreciate it.  I posted my invitation on the other sites.  Unfortunately, my post was met with a tremendous amount of profanity and anger on the Atheist Thinktank.  And the moderator removed it because he said it had been posted elsewhere.  It is unfortunate that people have to act this way.  We can have different views and still be civil.  I appreciate your civility.

I don't know what you are talking about...it's right here:  http://www.atheistthinktank.net/thinkta ... ;topicseen

The moderator of that forum is a friend of mine...maybe you should try posting some other things (you know, participate) so they don't think you are trying to spam them.
