251. Call to teach biblical creation as science

Comment #225420 by the great teapot on August 6, 2008 at 2:45 pm

What is the Religious stance on bisexuality.
Well that would depend on it's longevity in the zeitgeist.
If it were very short term they would be against it.If it still has legs in a thousand years from now, no one liked a bit of man on man more than jesus and st peter.

Any chance of having the word fucktard banned as an overworked cliche from this site?

Re Meaning of life,
Why do xians believe life is meaningless without god.
Because they have so little opinion of the likes of you and me. Life on earth is fine but it is not exactly the lottery win is it?
I mean you're ok, but there must be something better than you.
That is what they are really saying.

I didn't get my A level in maths at the same time as my unclassified in English O level for no reason.

"If only that were true"
should read ,if only that was true.
Also most of these children still believe in ghosts and the bogey man.

Many thanks to the chap/ess who first posted the link.
I have just spent the last few hours typing in screenwipe on youtube and enjoyed the comic consequences that followed. I recommend others do the same

Jeez,
Nowt but Bridget Jones on the Box, I come here and its sliding doors revisted.
I am living in a chick flick.

275. Conversation between Richard Dawkins and John Lennox

Comment #208150 by the great teapot on July 10, 2008 at 4:30 pm

Steve,
I am pleased to inform that cormack is an atheist but it only occurs at 4 am in the mornining. His words, not mine. Fortunately no one is around to witness them at that time. By 5 am he can regain his composure and take up his profession once again.
This is probably a good thing, most priests would give atheism a bad name.

276. PLEASE WRITE IN SUPPORT OF PZ MYERS

Comment #208132 by the great teapot on July 10, 2008 at 3:59 pm

Now, remember children, your real name and always be polite.

Spinoza, you made me laugh, now there's a first.

277. Conversation between Richard Dawkins and John Lennox

Comment #207328 by the great teapot on July 9, 2008 at 2:06 pm

I have never understood why atheists think that Religious believers might have a problem believing in miracles, not the average believer anyway.
Let's face it, if you believe in a god that can intervene and answer prayers etc,which nearly all theists do, you already believe in a god acting outside the normal rules.
If you believe in a supernatural creator surely virgin birth is a small ask.

What I found more interesting was that he completely dismissed the similar outlandish claims of islam.
He is a cultural christian, he believes because he thinks everyone in his own cosy world does. Just like all the smug plastic CNN presenters.

278. The Boundaries of Belief

Comment #205539 by the great teapot on July 7, 2008 at 12:35 pm

Clearly a multiple choice gone wrong here.
Are you
A, theist
or B, A theist.
The only explanation I can think of.

279. Muslims outraged at police advert featuring cute puppy sitting in policeman's hat

Comment #204702 by the great teapot on July 5, 2008 at 2:44 pm

Are we so blinkered as not to consider ....

You know he never answers that. Do not put him to the test.

Comment #204681 by the great teapot on July 5, 2008 at 1:52 pm

Anytime you would like to apologise will be ok with me.
Forget the above( you just have) .
Bugaboo, I am always saying shit I regret when I am tired, trouble is this site is so addictive I am always here both tired and drunk.

I find middlesbrough fc fascinating but I am only 80 percent sure its history should be compulsory in all uk shools.

288. Prayer refusal pupils 'disciplined'

Comment #204669 by the great teapot on July 5, 2008 at 1:21 pm

It is fascinating but only as an hobby.
Children have far more important things to learn.

289. Prayer refusal pupils 'disciplined'

Comment #204658 by the great teapot on July 5, 2008 at 12:59 pm

Bollocks to comparative religion, Religion has no more place in school than astrology.
I am fed up with this pandering to horseshite.
End it now. It may be of remote interest but it is not essential to education. Ditch the crap.
Nobody taught me astrology at school and that is culturally important.
Religion is a waste of tax payers money.

290. When too much Rapture is barely enough

Comment #204646 by the great teapot on July 5, 2008 at 12:35 pm

I was brought up in a "non religuous" household and also went to bed with the poem "If I die before I wake " but that is actually a nice thought, not quite the " I am alright jack but you're in deep do-do" that the rapture suggests.
I also used to go to bed with "sleep tight hope the bed bugs don't bite" ringing in my ear.
But who's sueing?

291. When too much Rapture is barely enough

Comment #204634 by the great teapot on July 5, 2008 at 12:04 pm

Funny thing is, I have lived now for 43 years and until a year a go I thought rapture was a dinosaur in jurrasic park. Now it would seem it is the american dream. How times change.

292. Prayer refusal pupils 'disciplined'

Comment #204630 by the great teapot on July 5, 2008 at 11:49 am

National service seems the only reasonable answer to me.
We of course would have to invade a few more countries to send them to to be killed in.
But it will keep them off Britains got talent and thats got to be worth it.

That would finally end the ....
"you guys are a tremendous example to the youf of today, pretending to be hoodies in Milton keynes is a far greater example to set than actually fucking learning something usefull"
comments once and for all.

293. Prayer refusal pupils 'disciplined'

Comment #204624 by the great teapot on July 5, 2008 at 11:40 am

i was forced to pray to allah once a week in my school in the north east of England twenty five years ago. Pleased to see nothing has changed.
(btw god=allah=god)
It was tacitly assumed back then , as now, a childs disobedience is without question punishable.

295. New Zealand man sells his soul to 'Hell'

Comment #203731 by the great teapot on July 3, 2008 at 12:59 pm

"CHIRISTIANS COMPLAIN SALE OF SOUL IN BAD TASTE"

This sort of thing makes my blood boil. All those europeans, sorry, christians- they all look the same to me, if they don't like it why don't they all **** off back home?

297. Muslims outraged at police advert featuring cute puppy sitting in policeman's hat

Comment #203323 by the great teapot on July 2, 2008 at 4:10 pm

There are plenty left, they just don't go shouting it from the roof tops.
As you well know decius.
That is why the distinction is important.

299. Muslims outraged at police advert featuring cute puppy sitting in policeman's hat

Comment #203296 by the great teapot on July 2, 2008 at 3:24 pm

Are Muslims the only people who can express an opinion?
No, that is why the police are at fault.
They should have just said "So what, we are very busy, we have to interview Mr Floyd about some very grave allegations we have just recieved."

8teist Keith Floyd is an English TV "chef"- Sorry with your bob the builder hat I forgot you mght be an ANZAC or Candian etc..

Comment #203291 by the great teapot on July 2, 2008 at 3:16 pm

8teist,
They may be second or third generation British.
And they are free to express their opinions.
I am at this moment in time writing a stiff letter to the Times about Keith Floyds habit of tasting his food with his finger -TWICE- without washing it, I hope I can count on your support, I have nowhere to go back to.
