WHAT IS THE ATHEIST EXPERIENCE?

The Atheist Experience is a weekly cable access television show in Austin, Texas geared at a non-atheist audience. The Atheist Experience is produced by the Atheist Community of Austin. The Atheist Community of Austin is organized as a nonprofit educational corporation to develop and support the atheist community, to provide opportunities for socializing and friendship, to promote secular viewpoints, to encourage positive atheist culture, to defend the first amendment principle of state-church separation, to oppose discrimination against atheists and to work with other organizations in pursuit of common goals.

  • Dark energy and dark matter has no weight or does it because we can't see it @TheAtheistExperience Duh! There is a soul

    - "Dark energy and dark matter has no weight or does it because we can't see it"

    Dark matter is unexplained, but it accounts for much of the mass in the universe, so if "weight" is mass, it should have that.

    Dark energy is a hypothetical form of energy. (Guess: if energy has mass, dark energy probably has dark mass. :) - "Duh! There is a soul"

    Duh! There are elves! Meh! Blurgh! Wooh! Duh!

    Do you want some evidence with that?

  • @TheAtheistExperience ...if we know for sure our intelligence and conscience and the ability to type on this great machine and to love is all bore out of just evolved chemistry, matter charged together through gravity alone? Come on!

  • @sowhatsnew205

    Why do people always mention "love" as something that requires the existence of a "loving" God or Allah? Can't people just do all that loving on their own, just like they do with hating?

    - "...out of just evolved chemistry, matter charged together through gravity alone?"

    I didn't mention any explanation, but if you mean a naturalistic explanation, that is probably what it comes down to.

    - "Come on!"

    That is just an argument from incredulity.

  • Christopher Hitchens is dead and I didn't hear about it until 3 weeks after the event (I had to investigate it myself). Yet I'm fully aware that someone is suing snooki TODAY.

    These are the things that make me hate most people in the world.

  • What Mark needs to understand is that it was HIM that made the change in his life. It was HIM that abandoned his life of crime and addiction to drugs. It was HIM that had the power within to make such a drastic and positive change. What is real is that Mark made the change; he empowered himself, but he needs to realize that it was by is own hand. Once you realize this quality that every human possesses, you no longer need religion and belief in God to change your life for the better.

  • @acr08807 LULZ.

  • @Antiks72 You know what would be fun? A WLC-postmodernist debate. The intellectual content would be equally balanced, at zero on each side.

  • @acr08807 So, can I shoot you now and rid the world of another bigot?
