Very well said indeed. It amazes me that some people actually buy the bullshit Stein is pushing, when it is so blatantly and obviously full of deceit and flat out lies.

Gotta love Hugh Laurie, he's done FAR more comedic roles than most people realize. I especially love the skit series he did with Stephen Fry, "A Bit of Fry and Laurie", which gave us such gems as the Spoon Bending Pychic (http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qUxWdIQVT_c).

3. I'm an atheist, BUT . . .

As usual you pull back the veil of bullshit and show in simple terms why the intellectually dishonest need to be confronted and not ignored or tolerated. Great stuff :D

'The God of the Old Testament is arguably the most unpleasant character in all fiction: jealous and proud of it; a petty, unjust, unforgiving control-freak; a vindictive, bloodthirsty ethnic cleanser; a misogynistic, homophobic, racist, infanticidal, genocidal, filicidal, pestilential, megalomaniacal, sadomasochistic, capriciously malevolent bully.'

Interesting passage if you have read 'The Devil's Apocrypha' (apparently dictated by Old Nick himself), as this is exactly how he describes 'the Man upstairs'. All nonsense, of course, but then you cant comment on something with any authority if you have no knowledge of it.
