I find PZ Myers' opinion on this matter extremely offensive. How dare he compare religion to knitting?

I know a lot of people who are knitters and to compare their craft to religion is to denegrate the rich history and tradition of the knitting arts. Shame on you!

[arlopickens]

I'm so glad that Ben Stein is out there setting the record straight about the holocaust. Hopefully the sequel will be about the Saganists who have infiltrated Big Science and are pushing out the biblical theories that the sun revolves around the earth, which is flat and doesn't move.

RELIGION

"We are not going to take it away from them"

PZ sure does think a lot of himself. He has even started to believe that he has the power to take away or reshape the faith of other peoples world views. He once made a bold statement that I disagreed with. When I asked him a simple and reasonable question which was, (can you provide evidence)? I was answered with childish name calling and was told to perform certain sexual acts on myself. This seems to be his schtick.

you realize all these interviews were ambushes and they took literally seconds out of hours of footage? right?... notice p z looks kinda tired(his glasses are off, his eyes are slightly glazed over).. like he has spent the last hour explaining his views to ben stein while ben sat there with his fingers plugged snuggly in thier ears.

and top commenter davegrossmansolobass, i think you have a problem with people who knit! :P knitting has never caused mass genocide like hitlers roman catholicism.

"When you reject theism as irrational, you then must rebuild and form your thought construct in the absence of any premise of a creator existing."

-Now you're getting it!!!

"You also assume that theism is irrational and baseless..."

-And there you have it, folks...Bingo!!!!

[Vanmeter815]

"So what's more right: Making a claim that you know things when you really don't?....."

Believers are not absolutely certain of the existence of God... No one can claim that they know for certain but just saying you don't know is chicken, you either become convinced that God exists or that he doesn't. There is a reason that people call agnostics "atheists without guts." You also assume that theism is irrational and baseless which I think is wrong and immodest.

[Vanmeter815]

Ok. When you reject theism as irrational, you then must rebuild and form your thought construct in the absence of any premise of a creator existing. At least if you are a person who tries to make sense of things. It is not as if you can trivialize the unbelief in the existence of a creator. The implications are massive, so massive in fact there is nothing that comes close. Not only in the way that you live and conduct yourself but your outlook on things in general.

Vanmeter:

My point is: Why would atheism lead to "absurd dilemmas" when "trying to make sense of reality"? It does not TRY to make sense of things. It's just a viewpoint. It's a REJECTION of theistic viewpoints...which do TRY to make sense of things by baseless assertions. Which aren't really explanations at all. So what's more right: Making a claim that you know things when you really don't?...or just saying that you don't know?
