1968 Radio Interview of Madalyn O'Hair Part 7

Heres part 7. In this one, the reverend describes grace as something that's undeserved. As if that's a good thing. Obviously it's another facet of dishonesty in the Christian lexicon. It's also a mark of arrogance in the humans who flaunt it.

When atheists are asked to prove something is not true, the atheists' most hilarious response to theists, which has been used from Ayn Rand to Madalyn Murray O'Hair, is the following: “Nobody ever proves a negative!”; “Nobody ever is called upon to prove a negative!”; or “Nobody has to prove a negative!”

Hilarious! Imagine an attorney using that phrase in a courtroom!

@legalman1980 - Then try it. Lawyers don't have to say it. A negative statement can't be proven to be true. You can only prove a positive statement. Try it.

HA! Isn't that so true!? Christians always speak nothing but gibberish and illogical psychobabble that a sane and reasonable person should respond to by laughing out loud in their face!

[aajoeyjo]

CrucieFiction---That's one reason why I love to hear Madalyn take on these Christians. If they speak nonsense, she'll laugh out loud, with no fear. Religion needs that. Christians need it. Comedy can sometimes help cure arrogance.

@dankwilliams he is so annoying. They have been talking over her for most of this interview.

[KasparHauser4]

I love her laugh

[THExGrimmace]

hmm he is putting grace into his context but this whole discourse was ruined because Ms O'Hair could put agnostic into her context, UGH!!!!!!!!!!!

[dankwilliams]

this christian fuck is pissing me off!!

Largo64, he did a lot of dancing around.

[Largo64]

Actually, even if we accept the historicity of Jesus (and there is reason to doubt it), the Romans, not the Jews, executed him. The Jews hadn't the power to do any such thing in Roman occupied Judea. And as Mrs. Murray pointed out, no trial or execution of Jesus was recorded by them. If it happened, it would have been.

I haven't gotten to the next episode yet, but he didn't answer Madelyn's statement that references to Jesus of Nazareth in Josephus were not in his original manuscripts but interpolated by someone else in the middle ages.
