Quote of the day.

"The original sin was supposed to have been committed by Adam. Who as we now know never existed. So we now have the preposterous idea that Jesus was sacrificed, the scapegoat was sacrificed, for the sins of a nonexistent forebearer."

Courtesy of Richard Dawkins from the documentary "The Unbelievers."

I finally watched this the other day.

    I want a shirt! Even for use in the privacy of my home with my family. Would get stoned to death outside in my area. Will save for outside use when I retire!

    Great quote, Great person - his aggressive attitude is not my style but we need people like Richard Dawkins to fight for us. I'm very surprised some religious wing nut hasn't taken a pot shot at him

    Yeah, he can get somewhat abrasive at times, but it's highly understandable, considering the fallacies about atheism that are out there.

    O/T
    Saw two people arguing over a bumper sticker in a gas station today. An old man has a sticker that says "I'm pro life to protect women before they're born". A younger and more educated young lady argued that a "woman" is a "girl" whose gone through adolescence and presents secondary sex characteristics, what you're pro life for is to protect a potential woman, aka "child", protected by law from being treated as an adult in a sexual manner".
    He tried to think of a response, shook his head, and quoted some bible scripture about her going to hell, which didn't elicit the expected response, she was laughing till tears ran down her cheeks, and called him a "pervert" if he thinks anything she said wasn't true.
    Why do people speed off when they're defeated?
