  • christianity is based on human sacrifice and ritualized cannibalism !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • oh and by the way there are hundreds of thousands of these cells waiting to be thrown out.

    you can either use them for stem cell or throw them out.

    the IVF clinics can't hold thousands and thousands of blastocysts because there is such little demand for them.

    might as well use them for stem cell research.

    you can advocate banning IVF later but for now we have so much of these cells that the best would be to use it for stem cell research.

see all

  • Sam can swallow !!!

  • Sam Harris rocks.

    

  • Christianity a zombie worshipping death cult that engages ritual cannibalism and has doctrines that endorse slavery, misogyny, xenophobia, homophobia and separatism based on imaginary misdeeds and victimless crimes. It seeks to control its followers and convinces them than ignorance is knowledge, slavery is freedom, hatred is love and faith is virtue. It glosses over atrocities and celebrates them as virtuous acts while condemning those who harm none as sinners.

  • Sounds like this guy is against the top scientists around; wonder who is the odd one out? I think this guy has a big chip; no, most likely a boulder on his shoulder. But most of all he is way, way out on the stem cell research issue.

  • @nosyt42 that's one reason I'm a vegetarian.

    the difference between a carrot and a cow is how it can suffer.

  • @qaplatlhinganmaH Well, if all biological organisms evolved from the same organic material, then we’re the cousins of carrots and cows, which makes us cannibals anyway ;)

  • @VesusSheist do you consider "magically manifest" to be science?....missing what point again?

  • @VesusSheist do you consider "magically manifest" to be science?

  • @helpmetony "Christianity would be revealed as a science? I'm suprised so many people buy this jokers books. Wait a minute,,,,,,,,,no I'm not."

    I think you're missing the point. He is saying that if jesus were to magically manifest in reality, that would be actual evidence that science can evaluate. The occurrence could actually be studied, and that is called science. Until we find evidence for religious claims, there is nothing of substance to believe.
