51. Sex for diploma offer caught on tape

Comment #164381 by Verylee on April 20, 2008 at 6:56 am

Comment #164377 by Steve Zara

Perhaps this article is funny, and I am suffering from my usual humour deficiency? :)

No, I agree with all you said Steve. The article has about as much relevance as an article about an atheist doing something virtuous being posted on a religious site (DR's!)

52. Lying for Jesus?

Comment #161571 by Verylee on April 15, 2008 at 12:13 pm

1583. Comment #161541 by mcoville

I do find it funny that you did not use your known name on the guest sign in sheet, why use Clint Dawkins?

Why? would they "Expell" him too!
As I understand it. The invitation was in the name of P.Z. Myers PLUS guests (no names were requested). When RD went to check/sign in as an invited guest he showed the I.D that he had on him which was his passport, which showed his birth certificate name as Clinton Richard Dawkins. I bet he signed (If he had to) with his usual signature. Who reads them? They saw the I.D.
My everyday name is not the same as the one on my passport either.

53. Ancient serpent shows its leg

Comment #159536 by Verylee on April 12, 2008 at 12:28 pm

If these transitionals keep appearing, Dog itself will have pop up and show a leg, 'cos if jesus christ himself appeared he would be villified and ridiculed as a fake by all christians whatever their various denominations. Jesus had better not pop up in an islamic country, unless he wants to go thru all that again!

55. Whale 'missing link' discovered

Comment #155020 by Verylee on April 4, 2008 at 4:42 am

Cause what may now seem the "best fitting explanation", will be regarded as a joke to future generations! Your kids will laugh at you for believing such nonsense!

Possibly yes, but so what? That's science. Future generations of scientists will take up the mantle and continue to ask questions and get answers based on reason, lifetimes of research and available evidence. How much easier it would be if everyone just agreed that goddidit and that we prostrate ourselves in front of all its gory. Oh the arrogance of scientists.

Comment #154943 by Verylee on April 4, 2008 at 2:54 am

Derick Gillies, of the Free Church of Scotland, said there was an unbalanced debate between those believing in creationism and those believing in evolution.

Unbalanced being the operative word.

Come on, Robertson, D'Souza, McGrath, Revcort or whoever else. Come and explain

Their silence is deafening. Maybe it's a good thing as they would most likely post something crass, evasive or offensive, or maybe they just don't care? Our blasphemy is more worthy of their contempt.

Comment by scottishgeologist

No doubt we'll get the usual pish about "not testing god" or "his ways are mysterious" and all that verbal limbo dancing to try to explain it away.
Instead of the glaringly obvious: PRAYER DOES NOT WORK - THERE IS NO GOD

As in "Are you calling me deluded? HOW very dare you"!

That story is sickening. Perhaps one of our theists would like to comment on it.

I was thinking the same, but I think there will be silence or the usual "It's not my dog". With apologies to Monsieur Clouseau.

Many Many Happy Returns. Thank you so much for throwing down the gauntlet to ALL religions and their indoctrinees, and for taking up the mantle of reason and common sense on behalf of all of us. You are an inspiration to so many, long may it continue.

I should have known better than to try and be ironic, when every post is critically examined by all! That was a response worthy of weeflea! I guess the nuance was not picked up....I apologise for not being clearer.

Comment #148506 by Verylee on March 23, 2008 at 8:18 am

Their arguments tend to diminish the scope of human achievement, emphasising our smallness in the Universe, that we are prisoners of our biology, and that we are all going to Hell in a plastic carrier bag with no prospect of salvation

Having a "crisis of faith" perhaps with the doctrine and dogma of atheism?

Yes! And keep posting! All of you Clearxxxxs et al....The bile, the venom, the illiteracy and the ignorance is a wonder to perceive. There are 10s of thousands of members of this site, and many more visitors I am sure, and if you and you ilk are the standard bearers for your various denominations you are doing us all a great favour, thank you, keep up the good work! I get my friends to take a look at some of the bile, lies, distortions, evasions that frequently occur....it gives them food for thought or at the very least a good laugh for the day...So once again, thanks to you all.

I think we should pull a Robertson and write an article where we take all of Pathfinder and Wooter's posts and hold them up and say: "See what theists think, this sums it up".

Great idea! I also think there is a book in all these weird and wonderfull posts! A lot to be shared and learnt by all.

I do not think many are easily offended on this site, and the point you were trying to make was atheists have no morals. Splinters and logs?

exposing atheism more as a bundle of sentiments than a coherent doctrine.

Damn! And there I was thinking all along that Atheists had a common creed! Well spotted.

78. In Britain, creationist theory is evolving

Comment #144576 by Verylee on March 16, 2008 at 11:03 am

I am sure in this Celeb obsessed world that there are many atheist celebrities who would be willing/happy to put their names to a short piece telling children to think for themselves. Rowan Atkinson, Ricky Gervaise, Michael Stipe, Brian Eno, Brian May, Jodie Foster, Stephen Fry, Eddy Izzard and so on and on. There are so many of them, intelligent articulate and in the media entertainment front line. It is a resource that needs to be tapped. "Kids....Just say no"! Maybe the children will listen to their heroes.

Comment #143367 by Verylee on March 14, 2008 at 3:42 am

What is it with religions and persecution? It seems that one of the default settings of any religion or their reps is to have a highly developed persecution complex and also to be totally blind to their persecution of others. These homophobic, genocidal, misogynistic organisations and their reps have the gall to turn round and say things like..."I have been repeatedly banned"..."Why don't the disciples of Dawkins call the Militant New Atheist books fleas as well?"...." We won't be allowed to speak, it will be rigged" etc etc.whilst they slag off other groups who do not conform to their twisted beliefs, whether they be other religions, lifestyles, whatever. Even a moron can see through their snide pseudo-intellectual posturing.
Wrong thread? I don't know! They're all persecution junkies!

those on the 'right' side are obviously intelligent works of genius motivated only by the desire to spread the truth, with no thought of money or fame

How many atheist flea books are there?
Oooooh touchy!! Ha ha touche, but I think that they are called "flea books" because of the un-imaginative choice of their titles.

Comment #142440 by Verylee on March 12, 2008 at 1:45 pm

Why do they keep trotting out these books? It's so unfair, the way they keep attacking Atheism, Atheists and Science like this. They know we don't have the numbers to fight them, only reason and evidence based around sound practice. There's no hope. (At least that's what they told David before he went out to face Goliath!)

they most likely entertain some scientific beliefs and logical beliefs as well which are not coherent with their beliefs in the truth of their dogma

I think the fact that none of us subscribe to a common ideology that they can pin down gets to them. Science and reason may be OK to describe the natural world but we just do not "get it" and some of them are compelled to show us fools the error of our ways.

Still on the subject of what a wonderful site! When I looked at the number of members in the fora last time, it was 27,000....A few days later it is up to 28,000 members. It would be great if there was a counter at the bottom of the RD.net homepage...we could watch it clicking over like those world population clocks!

Comment #140439 by Verylee on March 7, 2008 at 10:45 am

"The Selfish Gene" was one of the best books I have ever read and I certainly did not misunderstand the title of the book, or its contents. Even as a layman I got it (Eureka moment!). RD is one of the best science writers/popularisers around today. All I can think is this was an attack motivated by ______________ (insert phrase/word of choice)
