"I'm a Muslim and..."

Translation: "I believe in fairy tales, now take what I have to say seriously"

@mrodub

You shouldn't be so eager to find out; muzzies have no qualms of responding violently, it's after all the only thing islam's got. The 5 pillars of islam are ignorance, fear, fascism, sexual abuse, and of course at the trunk of these branches: violence.

These 7th century desert re-enactment theatres take themselves rather seriously, better bring some spray.

@Jshect

Erm yeah thanks! Why are you telling ME this? I was defending dawkins.

@GodTheHypothesis Dawkins has many other videos showing the evidence of evolution. potholer54 has excellant videos on the evidence for the big bang, geology, evolution and presents many arguments against creationism. Christopher hitchens has numerous debates in which he destroys theists. Atheist Experience, AronRA, lawrence krause destroys Michael Behe in a debate. There, if you want to hear about the evidence search for those videos on youtube

@chezpiecedaking Dawkins has better videos on youtube. Check out christopher hitchens debates, potholer and thunderfoots videos showing the evidence for evolution and geology and disproving creationism.

@chezpiecedaking

Which bit of what he said would require evidence? Obviously he's just expressing his opinion. Lots of people agree with it though. If you disagree with it, explain which bit and why!

[chezpiecedaking]

@GodTheHypothesis this guys comments are pointless,that's all he has is opinion ,were is the evidence?

[GodTheHypothesis]

@chezpiecedaking

Why not actually pick an actual point and try and respond to it instead of just pointless comments?

[1212JackJohnson]

@chezpiecedaking You should read his books - he is a lot more interesting in print! His verbal style is more suited to an academic situation - because of his background.

[chezpiecedaking]

This guy is boring and does not explain anything beneficial,sorry but i dont agree with Richard.

@AMomentOfClarity2011 It's ALWAYS been unpopular to be an atheist - whether in Europe, China, pagan Rome, ancient Greece or any Muslim country. Cultures are basically religious and to say otherwise is to ignore reality. Of course their doctrines are open to criticism (belief in invisible beings who read our thoughts is kinda wacky no matter how you put it) but humor can accomplish much more than haranguing.

Pointing out absurdities is the best weapon yet (and may get folks thinking).

I find it quite amusing to see these four lunatic technocrats basking in their own glory.
