@Clausfarre Well it depends on how you define "benefit". I would say that, by the definition he appears to be using, a placebo could also be described in those terms. The science of placebo is complex and has led us to an understanding that sometimes water isn't water, at least in terms of its ...

In 2009, six months after graduation, over half of philosophy graduates were in some type of paid employment. Areas of work employing large numbers were business and finance (11%); commercial, industrial and public sector management (12%); and marketing, sales and advertising (7%).

As long as each video has the prerequisite "aboot" in it, I'm happy!

@Alaron251 @nemo3590 No need to lie about your circumstances. Just say you're concerned about the situation and state your reasons.

Thankfully, although he is claiming to be calling from the UK his accent isn't British. Although there's plenty of British buffoons I don't think he happens to be one.

No, it's not burned! A man who lies with another man should be stoned. Well, it certainly helps :-)

Anyway, great point about the Bible still being relevant as art and literature!

I'm not sure this could be considered "destruction" of the Christian god, but I do like these types of arguments ...

The system was indeed a 32/64-bit hybrid. The same is also true of the processor in my PC some 17 years later.

The critical aspect was that Atari hadn't produced a games console since the 8-bit era. Their successful 16-bit machines were all home computers / workstations.

@DLandonCole Are you calling Jim al-Khalili a Muslim? Read his blog at the Guardian website and you will find that he's nothing of the sort.

"I have no religious or political axe to grind. As the son of a Protestant Christian mother and a Shia Muslim father, I have nevertheless ended up without...

Wow, unrehearsed?! Really? But it's so slick, so erudite, so entertaining... Without a script? You mean you just thought that stuff up?

I thought this was funny at first; a crazy christian woman with her crazy ideas. But she is clearly a deeply troubled individual with mental health issues.

@MrRr1024 Great, but it doesn't matter if you "identify" with the term any more than you "identify" with the term "human".

Atheist is simply a descriptor for someone with a lack of belief in a god or gods. If that describes you then the term applies whether your "identify" with it or not.

I'm not going to lie, a lot of this went straight over my head, but the second you read the Hawkings quote I realised it wasn't what Craig said it was.

@wdgeo Seriously, thanks! :-)

Academics that "naively chose to believe him" deserved to have their careers negatively affected.

@EspnNBAGeneral Seriously, you're so far away from understanding evolution, do yourself a favour and educate yourself. There's good information at talkorigins d ot org

@omgiwaswrong So in other words, you can't handle being owned intellectually by a person of faith? I understand.

I have not s...

@IRLpirate If you were a Christian you would be a polytheist too :)

Oh come on. A church youth group and an atheist society is hardly comparing apple to apples is it? Now if he'd said what would be the different attitudes between volunteering for a church youth group and a secular youth group he may have had a point. I don't know for sure as it is much harder ...
