What is The Atheist Experience?

The Atheist Experience is a weekly cable access television show in Austin, Texas geared at an atheist and non-atheist audience. The Atheist Experience is produced by the Atheist Community of Austin (ACA), a nonprofit educational corporation to develop and support the atheist community, to provide opportunities for socializing and friendship, to promote secular viewpoints, to encourage positive atheist culture, to defend the first amendment principle of state-church separation, to oppose discrimination against atheists and to work with other organizations in pursuit of common goals.

The problem is that the person thinks they're helping. They're not.

@stagesix6 well strictly speaking if he is omnipotent there isnt anything he couldnt do, or he wouldnt be omnipotent.

[stagesix6]

if god is omnipotent and totally good, he couldn't have created free will in the first place.

@Arcadia453 Well actually they said that cancer at SOME POINT cant be cured.

[gulbirk]

ok seriously, how can you be offended by it? They only mean well.

[Arcadia453]

They said several times that cancer can't be cured. I really object that, and here's something to watch about it.

You can also look into plenty of natural cures for it.

guilt prayer is to relive the guilt

[buggerwho12]

Would you be offended if I prayed for you if the god(s) I worship are not omniscient?

[gupsphoo]

@andrewh817 That's because it would benefit everybody instead of just the person they wish to get well. I believe most Christians would rather pray for the demise of people they hate, such as atheists like us.
