1. They prayed to cast Satan from my body

Argh i get so upset by this kinda stuff i can't think straight!

This proves Sam Harris' point about moderates allowing the extremes to roam freely. Those people running that hellhole would be inmates in a similar clinic if they had lived in Norway.

3. Richard Dawkins on The Big Debate

Dawkins should have mentioned the fact that you rarely see a Socialist school, a capitalist school or the like, so why segregate children into faith schools. I think that is a powerfull argument.

4. Scientists want rewrite of Earth's time line

Yeah i mean we have super intellectuals like Richard Dawkins and Daniel Dennet, journalist supreme Christopher Hitchens, Super HERO Ayaan Ali and Sam Harris (sorry cant think of an apropriate title for him).

6. 'Irrational Atheist' trounces God-deniers

I have heard of him before. His real name is Theodore Beale and he is a computer game designer gone bad if i remember correctly. His book was listed in the flea section a long time ago. Not really worth paying attention to in my opinion.

7. Banishing the Green-Eyed Monster

Richard Dawkins is full of suprises. I fully agree with him but i still think it is very imressive of somone from that generation to be so open minded.

Quotes of Note:

"I doubt that religion can survive deep understanding. The shallows are its natural habitat. Cranks and fundamentalists are too often victimised as scapegoats for religion in general. It is only quite recently that Christianity reinvented itself in non-fundamentalist guise, and Islam has yet to do so (see Ibn Warraq's excellent book, Why I am not a Muslim). Moonies and scientologists get a bad press, but they just haven't been around as long as the accepted religions. Theology is a respectable discipline when it studies such subjects as moral philosophy, the psychology of religious belief and, above all, biblical history and literature. Like Bertie Wooster, my knowledge of the Bible is above average. I seem to know Ecclesiastes and the Song of Solomon almost by heart. I think that the Bible as literature should be a compulsory part of the national curriculum - you can't understand English literature and culture without it. But insofar as theology studies the nature of the divine, it will earn the right to be taken seriously when it provides the slightest, smallest smidgen of a reason for believing in the existence of the divine. Meanwhile, we should devote as much time to studying serious theology as we devote to studying serious fairies and serious unicorns. "

Richard Dawkins

"What can be asserted without proof can be dismissed without proof."

Christopher Hitchens

"What are all of us but self-reproducing robots? We have been put together by our genes and what we do is roam the world looking for a way to sustain ourselves and ultimately produce another robot child."

Richard Dawkins

"It is a truism that almost any sect, cult, or religion will legislate its creed into law if it acquires the political power to do so."

Sir Arthur C. Clarke

"Man is a Religious Animal. Man is the only Religious Animal. He is the only animal that has the True Religion -- several of them. He is the only animal that loves his neighbor as himself and cuts his throat if his theology isn't straight. He has made a graveyard of the globe in trying his honest best to smooth his brother's path to happiness and heaven.... The higher animals have no religion. And we are told that they are going to be left out in the Hereafter. I wonder why? It seems questionable taste."

Mark Twain
