Nice one Stevil lol

They could pin an "A" to our shirt that must stay there by law, then we would all have to go to these train cars, have our fillings pulled and..... Haven't I heard this story somewhere before?

This preacher is living proof of why in-breeding is illegal.

Though I'm not sure I buy it.
I certainly don't buy it given the way he deleted his facebook page and made his blog accessible only to invited readers.  This was just the best story he could come up with to try to explain away his intolerance.

If religions were TV channels atheism is turning the TV off.

Youtube on the subject http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZTHyVWCoJdg

Stahl's one of the vocal ones... just think of how many people believe as he does, but are unwilling to say it.

I liked the video, right up until the end.  The final phrase just sounds like a threat.
"We are atheists. We are everywhere. And no list will ever contain us."

IMHO, it would have been a stronger message without that phrase.
Just sounds like the Borg!

Anyway, Stahl's suggestion is just sickening.
But he and his thoughts came from somewhere.
It's being fostered and festered, that's for sure.

p.s. props to Stevil - very creative!

I love (and fear) The Borg. xD
But yeah, that message was cheesy.

This guy disturbs me in that he listed me (someone he doesn't know) in the same category as rapists/molesters and killers and scum of the earth basically. Now...in my opinion...thats a pretty big judgement for a christian. And isn't christianity about not judging others? Hypocritical wackos

Philosophy is questions that may never be answered. Religion is answers that may never be questioned.

I'm certain I don't.  You know, it always stuns me when someone can't understand getting a harsh reaction from people he's insulted.  As the man of the cloth said, duh.

QuoteNever heard of a 'stink eye' before?

I would describe it as a "you fucking idiot" look.  My cat gave me the stink eye once.  I actually got a picture of it and if I could figure out how to post pictures, I'd show you.
