aron ra is the fucking man!

[squeeker1992]

@nontheistdavid well fucking said!

[zysilveria]

I really dont like dave; first he says that people need to see the "good face" of athiests and then saying we need to be aggressive agaisnt them. Pick one.

[Paur]

I kinda disagree with David; God thrives in ignorance. If you just say you don't believe in their god, most religions already has a counter for that; in the bible's case, you're an idiot who is denying him and probably accepted Satan whether you know it or not.

That's why the sciences are such a thorn in their side, they need evidence and logical reasoning to counter you instead of a simple brushoff as being evil or corrupted. It doesn't matter if you just want respect. You're evil.

Wow, what a great soliloquy by Aron Ra at the end!

[TheD0ded0de]

If there ever was a bible worth reading, it would be just Aronra quotes in them.

Nice rant, Aronra!

I've seen Michael's vlogs. He reminds me of friends in my family who are very calming and balanced to speak with as Michael wouldn't give a condescending person an ounce of his time. In contrast, David (Pres of American Atheist) is dealing with fundamentalists who are cronies who have done some pretty dastardly stuff. So, his tactic is needed.

@DimmedDiamond also,canada has god in its national anthem which could easily be exchanged for lets. start the campaign now.

[DimmedDiamond]

Canada more secular? The official head is still the British monarch, a monarch ordained by a God. That's the "legitimacy" of a monarch. "Oh, well, it's only symbolically", Then get rid of it.

GOOD MAN, Silverman! I like his style.

It's time to stop being so fucking nice and benevolent towards theists. Let's finally get our voice out there. You Americans have no chance of a political career unless you believe in somehting supernatural

[Domzdream]

I'm glad to see DPR regulating the conversation a lot more stringently. There's no overlapping of dialogue or interuptions of thought. Because the interruptions are what really piss me off, regardless who's doing the talking.

I get chills of frustrations when for example you get a theist explaining himself. Then suddenly you hear Thunder- 'Le-le- le-let's talk about' ....

GRRRR.

Let the man speak!

So DPR. Thanks for this brilliant series of well directed clips.
