Nope, it's actually designed to prevent this being sprung upon you if you have movie night at your place:

Tell me that's a joke! :eek: Oh my holy baby geesus! :pac: That is about the
weirdest thing I've ever seen The psychology of that ad alone would get
someone a PhD.

"mom, I won that round " *cough*oedipal*urges*cough*. But what do I
know because "christians happen to have started these United States of
America "...

That can't be real...can it?

Brilliant, though. If someone told me Roald Dahl had written the dialogue, I'd believe it.

The Mad Hatter I do not think it is real. It is still really funny.

i got related to hitler LOL

hitler had many great ideas many fail to realize he went the completely wrong way about it but he was a pioneer of genetics and world unification ofc this is debatable

It is most odd, check this out...

I saw this one form the Independent ages ago, it seems to pre-date the Ocnus.net one by 6 years. I will see if I can find the case, if it is real.

The witness' responses are hilarious!

Counsel: Yes, m'lud. Now, Mr Chrysler, perhaps you will describe what reason you had to steal 40,000 coat hangers?
Chrysler: Is that a question?
Counsel: Yes.
Chrysler: It doesn't sound like one. It sounds like a proposition which doesn't believe in itself. You know – "Perhaps I will describe the reason I had to steal 40,000 coat hangers... Perhaps I won't... Perhaps I'll sing a little song instead..."

Headline in today's Irish Times: Senior churchmen to 'give particular attention to victims of abuse'

Isn't that what caused the problem in the first place?

Stolen from You Laugh You Lose

From AH:

From Films:

You must be an Atheist to hunt Trolls, because they can smell the blood of christians:D

ColmDawson

I'm currently being being amused (and occasionally enraged) by the latest atheism thread in After Hours.

Recipe for AH atheism thread:

1. Grease tin with a kilo of tired misconception
2. Add one suitably inflammatory OP, full of generalisation
3. Sprinkle the OP with a healthy amount of thanks (this is useful for knowing whose posts to ignore while reading the thread)
4. Collect dozens of the most ignorant, ill-informed posts from each thread in A&A, paraphrase and scatter throughout thread
5. Whisk several logical fallacies and and stir in
6. While stirring, add one poster with a persecution complex
7. Continue stirring, add a handful of brave A&A regulars
8. Bake for two to three days at sweltering temperatures

Improbable

That's why I avoid AH. Every issue that can be discussed on AH is usually discussed somewhere else and in a much more serious and grown up fashion. People can come here if they want a rational and reasonable debate about an atheism topic. If you're posting in AH about something like that, you're usually just stirring the pot.

I read the first 15 pages ansd stopped because it goes on forever. What saddens me reading such threads is not the ramblings of the zealots such as the OP (they are lost causes anyhow), but the more reasonable people, self described agnostics or deists, who seem to think atheists are every bit as bad as the Jehovah's Witnesses who knock at your door or 6 day Creationists.

Yeah, the kind of people who take some sort of pride in saying they're not convinced that evolution is true, or act like there's a 50/50 chance of god existing. Argh.

I have to admit I was one of those people once. It's so easy if you are uninformed on the subject to take common assumptions as truth. Most of them can be reasoned out of it though, it's only a matter of communicating with them without scoffing and having lots of patience. AHs sadly isn't the place for it.

Yeah, I think people don't want to be seen as inpartial in such matters so just say, "I don't know" or "I'm not totally convinced". However, such thinking is easily remedied by a bit of research. If they truly want to know enlightenment is only a quick read away.

oh no, I've been dragged in...

Me too. I've read a bit more since then.

In a way, I consider myself lucky because I was raised with no faith by parents who were atheists long before I was born. I didn't get any silly religious ideas ingrained in my head from an early age. But on the other hand, I do find it more difficult relating to religious people on the topic of religion because I simply cannot put myself in their shoes, especially in the case of those who were raised religious.
