im so sad that these illiterate get to vote!!!

[funcpl2741054]

arrghhhh..this guy really is stupid......but im really tired of some of the hosts equating their political views with Atheism.

[CaneFu]

Gosh, this guy is an idiot.

[CaneFu]

I find it hard to hate that which does not exist.

[Enlightenedopinion92]

I hate God like I hate Voldemort. They are two very unpleasant fictional characters.

[KuzcoCool96]

Oh my gosh! The lady with black hair is soooo funny!

Ok, so "Mike" is actually "Mark" who calls several times after this. BUT now the supposed confirmed theory is that Mark was just a huge Poe/Troll

The thing is, "Mike" gets more sophisticated with each call in how he presents his ignorance to the point that on the last few calls it is hard to believe he is fake. BUT on this call alone, he is so clearly NOT arguing an honest position.

I love watching religious ppl breakdown this one is better then that time that Dawkins pwned that muslim on the way that he should raise his child just by asking "What do you teach youre childred is the punishment for apostasy "

[infernalone666]

this mike guy is a damn idiot. he is brainwashed by his church, which brings up all his stupid elitist defences 'you're scared' and stuff like that. he thinks apologists are legit and not just excuse-makers. and he is a control freak because he's afraid fo the atheists so much that he has to complain they get an hour of tv time

and his double-standards with 'miracles'

[HighCaliberLogic]

They're nicer than Matt, but not as hard a beatdown.

Tracie is like a great tennis player...acting and reacting at the same time...genius!

[55chh]

Mike is NOT stupid... I've heard him a few times and he is a genuine caring person. I think he has been very giving and he has been very respectful and I think he has gotten a whole lot to think about from the staff of the show. I wish all theists were like Mike.
