You know, it leaves a bit of a hole in your life when you discover that Father Christmas doesn't exist. Fortunately, we have James Randi, who is just as good in every possible way (and then some). James Randi: what a man!

Randi is brillant. I'm young, but when i'm older i want to grow a Darwin beard like Dennett and Randi. What greater tribute to pay someone like Darwin than to honor him with your own aesthics.

Wow, look at those two atheist fanatics, frothing at the mouth like rabid dogs.

They look just as threatening as Muslim extremists.

Dawkins in particular has fire in his eyes- a visage of pure hatred.

I had to turn the volume down- the noise of their atheistic fire and brimstone was overloading my poor speakers.

(satire)

Randi is ace! www.randi.org should be on every freethinker's list of places in cyberspace to visit on Fridays.

He really does do some serious demolition work on the nutjobs.

Roscoe-

That's what I figured, but then again, you don't know me from Adam, so for all you know I could be dumber than firewood and have meant those comments as genuine.

Seems like AtheistJunkie may have missed my 'satire' label. Oh well, guess I'm no Colbert.

Christian,

I like our name- it's kind of cool. I even liked it when they shortened my name to Christ on a pizza box a few weeks back.

I hope our name outlives the religion.

LOL. "Christ on a pizza box"

Well that beats the Virgin Mary appearing in a toasted cheese sandwich or whatever that lunacy was! :-))))

Here it is: Weep.
