I'd love to put Biblical Law Enforcement Robots in the homes of the Jerry Falwell's, Ted Haggard's, Joel Olsteen's and Kim Davis's of the world and watch what happens.

Not sure if real or parody, but still humorous.

^If that is a bit of historical reality, then I salute Harrington's development of the anti angel cannon.

The Sir John Harington most well known to history was a poet and courtier in the time of Elizabeth I. While he did invent the flushing toilet, there is no mention of him coming up with an idea to shoot angels out of the sky. As for being an atheist, he wrote a work consisting of epigrams titled "Against Paulus an Atheist," and there is no indication that he was an atheist himself. I cannot unequivocally call bullshit on that "infographic" but as it stands I wouldn't consider it to have any credibility either, especially since the supposed source is that den of liars for Jesus, the "Institute for Creation Research."

Well I for one call bullshit on the "Infographic". For one Sir John died in 1612, long before cartridges and precision caps would have made such a weapon as shown in the info-graph even remotely possible .
Secondly anti-aircraft weapons as far as I understand did not really have a solitary inventor, but evolved out of need during WWI when regular field artillery weapons were turned toward the sky to shoot down airplanes which were of course starting to be used as weapons themselves for the first time in warfare.

Also, I would agree with Recusant there is nothing to suggest that Sir John was an atheist.

Christians, especially the ones believing in creationism are so accustom to lying to support their non-sensical beliefs that creating a bogus info-graph such as this one is not hard to believe; and was surely used not to turn skeptics like ourselves back into believers, but to foster the notion amongst themselves that we Atheists are secretly afraid we may be wrong and would do anything to hide the truth from ourselves, when quite the opposite is true.

One has to wonder though why they picked Sir John for this, and not someone who lived closer to the modern age, a late 19th or early 20th century atheist as opposed to one who lived back in the late 1500's?
