1A variant of the ?courtier?s reply?: the pit bull lover?s challenge 1 Citation How can you be against pit bulls if you don?t know their history, their habits and preferences, their sub-breeds, the names of all the important studs? I am against them because if they don?t like you for whatever reason they will sink their teeth into your flesh down to the bone and not let go until they are made unconscious. Furthermore, they were made like this intentionally . This is what pit bulls are for . I am against them because they cause more harm than good. It?s that simple., technorati.com

Ten Thoughts Darwinists Ought to Ponder Before Breakfast (Or Not) 1 Citation I?m not going to put up the Creationist Breakdown image, because this ?article? hardly warrants it. Like its title aptly suggests, it?s a list of ten things that Darwinists should think about before eating their godless breakfasts, written in response to the fact that it?s Darwin?s two-hundredth birthday this year. Of course, it?s meant as a piece of Christian apologetics, and it will be treated as such. The audience that the author intended it to be for, in my opinion, would be either theisti, technorati.com

1 Citation John Goldingay - Old Testament Theology Volume One, Israel's GospelI am currently breakign up my research day (Mark?s Gospel, Temple, Atonement) with reading a few pages of Goldingay.

Are Things as Bad as They Appear? 1 Citation In Robert Wright?s interview with Salon.com today, he was asked about the end of his recent book, The Evolution of God : At the end of your book, you say the great divide in modern thinking is between people who think there is some divine source of meaning ? a higher purpose in the universe ? and those people who don?t.

Our question (since 9Moons has a fascination with polls)? To witness what event would have the greatest capacity to convince an atheist of the existence of God? Why? This was most certainly an amusing post , and I wish there were more answers for me to read. It?s interesting that some people gave generic proofs that didn?t necessarily point to any specific formulation, technorati.com

1 Citation Imagine that a Calvinist, an Arminian and an Open Theist get to Paradise. (This is not a joke, by the way.) They notice that some of their loved ones are not there. They did not choose to have faith in Jesus, and so have gone to literal burning hell / annihilation / N.T. Wright?s Zombieland . (That was a joke, by the way). The Arminian says to the Calvinist, ?Do you still think God elected us to be here and just let those poor souls head off to eternal punishment? That doesn?t seem very f, technorati.com

1 Citation We spend a lot of time here on the Atheosphere debating the fine nuances between the religious worldview and the atheist worldview. From our Point of View , the religious just don?t have a clue, and they think the same of us. We think that a rational, skeptical, humanistic, evidence-based way of grasping reality is the way to go, or as my grandmother used to say, the cat?s pajamas . Theists think that having faith, blind or otherwise, in an unseen and unknowable supernatural entity is also, technorati.com

Me, Myself, and the Anti-Theist in Me 1 Citation So if you know me well, you would know how much I hate theism. I say theism rather than religion, belief, or spirituality because people can be religious or spiritual in many different senses. They can be religious in their pursuit of happiness, extremely spiritual in their approach to nature, etc. Here I am talking about a belief in a God or Gods. For the most part my comments are directed at the big three, Judaism, Christianity, and Islam. It is a belief in a God that draws out in me,, technorati.com
