great video. i liked the comparrisons to dread scott and brown vs. board.
it really blows my mind how christians use the no true scottsman fallacy toward shirley phelps (westboro baptist church) and claim she isnt a "real" christian but then they turn around and exemplify the same kind of bigotry.
I see the same ad hoc fallacy with christian beliefs. One group denies the importance of a particular tenant, while another insists on its essential nature. This is part of how I arrived at atheism, if you deny aspects ad hoc, you have to go back to first causes to establish your basis for belief. Then I realized there was no "there" there. It was argument by authority. =>FAIL
A part of me truly wishes you hadnt thrown that last bit in there, because based on encounters I've had with fanatics, I wouldnt put it past them to start killing any who would represnt anything against the word of their god. Seriously.
I know, but still... the last thing you want to do is give people like that any ideas. Religious zealots + actually well thought out plans usually doesnt = anything good for the rest of us. And as a side note, I would sincerely hope that never happens to you or anyone else, sir.
Jeremiah 6:19"Hear , O earth! Behold I will certainly bring calamity on this people - The fruit of their thoughts, Because they have not heeded My words nor my law, but rejected it.

I was trying to point out that basing decisions on the bible required dealing with other passages as well. I hoped to emphasize the absurdity of it.
Of course, they still might want to beat the love of Jesus into me ;)

This is a America, the land of the "free", and god fearing. You terrorist go back to what ever non-American place you are from.
Really do you expect any more from a gay who's account name is "godwantsustoknow". I don't.
