Nazis in Germany were in no way atheistic, sure they wanted the church gone but they went strongly advocated an "Aryan religion" to replace Christianity over time.

I loved what the indian guy said so casually that the salem witch trials only killed 18 people. He doesn`t seem to value life at all just because it was not "enough". There are insane amounts of reasons why more people died in the second world war than in previous wars, it had little to do with their leaders religion. Most nazis that pushed the gas button and that worked the incinerator were in fact christian and "I was only following orders". The same horse shit have been used by Christians for years. "It`s nothing personal, it`s just that my book here says you are the spawn of satan and needs to be killed."

Also I loved the fact that the same guy said "Why would we invent hell? My diabetes is bad enough as it is." to prove the point that is has to evolutionary value to benefit mankind and later states "We live in a world here the bad guys somtimes make it home with the money. Isn`t it good to know that they will be judged for the actions?", a very good argument for the reason why we would make something like hell up.

Also I loved his rabbit being attacked by a lion story since it is very similar to what happened to the Christian in it`s early days when they were thrown to the lion in arenas. Wouldn`t the idea of heaven be a thing to remind yourself of when you are seemingly near the end or an excellent reason to give you body up as a martyr of god and go smite some evil muslim?

D`souza is indeed well prepared, and articulate. but he resorts to straw man arguments constantly, quote mines and fails to address the larger issues, focusing on trivial detials that he can win a point on.

did you see how hitchens looks at him though? he knows he can take D`souza in a fight.... easy

The single most infuriating thing that Christians claim is that their religion is the foundation of morality. That dipshit Dinesh even said they invented compassion. Tell that to a Buddhist.

"Compassion or karuna is at the transcendental and experiential heart of the Buddha`s teachings. He was reputedly asked by his secretary, Ananda, "Would it be true to say that the cultivation of loving kindness and compassion is a part of our practice? To which the Buddha replied, "No. It would not be true to say that the cultivation of loving kindness and compassion is part of our practice. It would be true to say that the cultivation of loving kindess and compassion is all of our practice.""

Stick that in you pipes and smoke it God-tards. Do some fucking homework before you make even bigger asses of yourselves.

I agree that Dinesh comes of well, he`s one of the less retarded Christians out there. But he`s still huffed WAY too much glue to make any real sense outside of Christian dogmas.

Wow, yet another Christian trying to take credit for the entire human races humanity and ethics.

That`s right, there were NO GOOD PEOPLE, EEEVVER, before the bible wrote them down. "morality COMES from Christianity" Fuck you, you arrogant, ignorant prick. That`s right, not ONE FUCKING PERSON was EVER virtuous before JESUS. BAH!

And I`ll say this again..

I loooove how religious types are getting all bent out of shape because now people are finally able to speak out openly about it. We`ve had to endure MILLENIA of listening to this trype in one form or another. And met with death and torture if it were ever stood against. Now, in this past few decades they`re having to hear people speak openly about how much they hate it, and they can`t take it. What a bunch of fucking babies.


And FUCK! Those killers did not murder FOR ATHEISM! They just HAPPENED TO BE ATHEIST. Thats a HUGE difference!!!


And another thing! This idiot keeps cracking jokes to win favour! No good arguements at all. i liked that Harris/Rabi one soooo much better.

Why should evolution have to explain origin??!!! THAT"S NOT EVOLUTION! My theory on the observation problem doesn`t have to explain how swiss cheese gots holes! Fuck this guy is so fucking stupid.
