I found the tirade hysterical. It was clearly written by someone who lacked clear understanding of how to write a treatise, which this is supposed to be. I found myself laughing out loud at the blatant distortions and flat out fabrications. I am a strong believer in freedom of thought and speech but if you are going to attack one of the main 3 religions, at least spend the time to do some quality research to support your assertions. Also, as I read on and on, he lost credibility with each sentence, with his use of superlatives and absolutes such as this gem "It's the Christians who go around trying to persecute everyone else all the time". And that was just the 3rd sentence in the tirade. LOL. I came away with the impression that this was written by someone with a highschool education at best.

This was a humorous read on a slow and boring Friday. Thanks for that, at least.

Yeah, the article itself is rather terrible. It's just a diatribe and does more to distort the discussion than anything else.

My comment about the logic and philosophy classes was aimed more at the way the article was written as opposed to the content.
Shamegame, it's clear to me that you judged the piece going in with anything but an unbiased and open mind. You judged the piece on the basis of everything and anything except the main thing: Its content. That point was proven when you went off on a tangent and even started attacking the Unintimidated Press. You clearly were judging the piece based on some preconceived notions about the Unintimidated Press. You even had the audacity to drag NORML into the debate. What in the hell does NORML have to do with a discussion the nature of which this thread is based on?

You come across to me as being a person who has a lot of prejudices. You clearly judged the piece through the prism of your own prejudices. Until you can demonstrate that you can go in with an unbiased and open mind and judge the piece the way it should be judged, and that is from a purely objective standpoint, it would constitute a waste of my time to continue debating it with you.

By the way, you said you went to the Web site of the Unintimidated Press. When you were there did you read the second link down on the homepage? You might want to give it a read. In fact, it's probably even better than the Christianity piece!

It needs to be reiterated for people to make up their own minds when judging the piece. Clearly, many of those who have posted to this thread have all sorts of prejudices and biases going in (I suspect many are Christians). This point is proven by the fact that these individuals spend most of their time doing nothing more than attacking the messenger or calling the piece names like, "tirade," "rant," etc... What you don't see, however, is anyone successfully disputing anything in the piece. In fact, many of the responses to this thread just flat-right-out border on immature.

The title of the piece is "The Final Debunking Of Chritianity." That's what it is. That's what it does! Deal with it!!!

Congratulations. Your remarks only reinforce my belief in the credibility of the piece. They do nothing toward shaking my belief that the piece does what it says it does. In fact, why did you even bother?

try gettin a group of like 25 people and making a long ass circle or line, then whisper a sentence into one person's ear and let them whisper the same sentence into the next person's ear, all the way down the line, when the last person says the sentence 100% of the time it is different from the original, and that was just 25 people, now imagine 50 years and thousands of people ..... if ya want to live your life based on a fairytale, go right ahead
