Re: Afterlife Surprises
"Do not be decieved God is not mocked, whatsoever a man soweth he shall also reap, he that soeth good to life everlasting and he that soeth evil to everlasting destruction"
He was a mocker and a blasphemer. I dont curse him for being an atheist, belief is hard for some, but as mocker and vehement blasphemer. He led the little ones astray and offend them. As it is said it would have better for him to have a millstone cast around his neck and thrown into the sea
He was a filthy piece of garbage and a piece of dung. Recieve that which you have reaped Mr Hitchens
That's nothing to what Allah thinks of you.

Re: Afterlife Surprises
Oh Im sorry, I must be mistaken, as much time as Christopher spent blasphemeing The God of the Old and New testament, Im surpised he was even aware of Allah
One does have to wonder why a man like Christopher would spend so much energy and time, belittling, berating and demeaning an entity for which he didnt even believed existed
My guess is that he always really knew he did, but was afraid to admit it
You know the ole, "Me thinks he protest to much" principle
Your not a belated closet atheist are DA? For Christopher its to late, but you still have choice to do the right thing

If you had grasped my point, you might have replied to it with less of a jumble of nonsense and self-serving fantasy ... but I wouldn't bet on it.

Re: Afterlife Surprises
Is this one of the fellows that has in the past dodged our grcious invitation to person public debate
Perhaps he was unaware of the "grcious" offer made by you and the mouse in your pocket.
He has, however, debated people who aren't complete non-entities.

Re: Afterlife Surprises
Yes DA, I understood immediately your point that you dont think the God the Bible exist to matter one way or another
But I thought this thread was designed to honor or poke fun at a man so simplistic as Christopher H
This is a roast, right. Oh sorry i guess that is not the best term to employ
Dawn Bertot
That didn't make much sense either.

He backed up everything he said? Atheistic regimes have killed over 100 million people. Thats 10,000 times more than all religious atrocities put together since the beginning of time.
In which case religious atrocities have accounted for the deaths of ... er ... ten thousand people? Over the entire course of human history?
I think you may be out by a few orders of magnitude.

Darwinism rewards those that leave offspring ...
No.
So like a cockroach, rat, bacteria or pondscum, Hitch did his job.
There are those who claim that God had a son. Would you say that that makes him comparable to a cockroach, rat, bacterium or pondscum?

I mean C'mon, MOTHER TERESA!?!.
Yeah, shocking. We know, of course, that all criticisms of her are invalid 'cos she was so wonderful. And we know she was so wonderful 'cos there are no valid criticisms of her.

Re: Afterlife Surprises
Well thats easy. Since the unbeliever has no absolute standard of what moral is or is not and involves himself in a logical contradiction by claiming anything as immoral, as he follows a survival of the fittest standard, the believer can perform not only one thing the unbeliver cannot, but the only thing that matters, objectivity in a moral standard without fear of blatant contradiction
This is, of course, nonsense --- in the most literal sense, i.e. it consists of words combined in such a way that the resulting phrases have no meaning.

Re: Afterlife Surprises
lets see if DA has an explanation as to why a person that adopts and believes the law of the fittest and outright atheism, can explain why God is evil.
It is for people who think God exists to explain why he's evil. Asking me that is like asking me to explain why Santa is fat.
Where did you get your standard of morality, that your buddy Hitchens claims you have?
I guess I was well brought up.
You see Agent you jumped ship to quickly. If you are looking for answers from these fellas you wont find any
Perhaps you should address your remarks to people actually participating on this thread. Of course, that would involve you doing something that isn't totally stupid.

Re: Afterlife Surprises
Ok great, so we dont have to worry about God being evil. So the next time somone like Hitchens makes that allegation that God is evil or he is not good, it doesnt matter, because the allegationis irrelevant. Great
What Hitchens actually wrote was "God is not great". This would seem to follow from his nonexistence, since it is hard to attain greatness without actually existing.
As this is both true and reasonable I can see why you'd have ignored it.
What I meant is, can we be assured of its objectivity enough to know that claims concerning anyone elses behavior can be judged by it, your moral standard that is. If so why?
I presume you intended that paragraph to make some sort of sense. If so, your ambition has exceeded your abilities.

Re: Afterlife Surprises
Hitchens intimations about the possible existence or non-existence of God, have nothing or very little to do with Hitchens inability to formulate a platform for morality, seeing he has no way to establish a standard of morality, believing everything is just matter in motion
Gods existence or non-existence have nothing to do with Hitchens inabiltiy to form a logical proposition concerning morality
Therefore Hitchens making any comment about Gods, nature or stature is equally non-sensical and irrelevant
Ill repeat the question. Is the best attempt at an argument he could put forward, to explain why religious people were insane or should be killed
If you see your above statement as true and reasonable, I can see why you use jokes a nd sarcams instead of actually formulating an argument
You appear to have gone mad.

Re: objectivity
Actually I dont have to do this. Because if my observation that something is not logical or valid, is not actually valid, due to it simply being matter in motion, then it just furthers the idea that not only am I being inconsistent, but he is as well. And that is ofcourse, if consistency can actually be verified and actually matters in a matter in motion only world
Of course it doesnt, which would include any pointless conclusions Mr Hitchens formulated, which are only actually atoms and molecules functioning, correct
My positions or beliefshave nothing to with the fact that his moral deductions are just matter in motion therefore irrelevant, except to him
Fell free to correct me if you think I am off track
You can probably get pills for whatever makes you write like that.
