Another manipulative shock film by the banana man, Ray Comfort. This movie seemingly is to remind us about Hitler.

He poses some really difficult questions to people on the street. He says, "It's 1945, A German officer is pointing a machine gun at you and telling you to drive a bulldozer forward. There is a huge pit with people in it, some dead some half alive. He tells you to bury those people alive. He is going to shoot you if you don't do it. Would you do it?" The answers get intense. There are extremely shocking images of dead people.

THEN AT EXACTLY 13:22 there is a dead baby shown and Ray Comfort says, "How do you feel about abortion?". Need I say more? Yes. This film is a con that compares fucking ABORTION to the Jewish Holocaust.

Watch it then rise up.

This situation is similar to the one with Rebecca Watson and the "Elevator Guy". Was she too hard on him?

Is it worth our time trying to reason with the emotionally minded people that are religious?

2011-06-09T09:22:00.000-07:00

By Philip Sober

I'm an atheist and have been out spoken about it and heard all the nonsense regarding that fact by the religious, such as, I'm a fundie atheist or atheism is my religion, etc... but lately I've questioned my own tactics. What i mean by that is this, as an atheist, I'm also fairly scientific minded, for an uneducated layman that is.

I've come to the rational belief, in the philosophy of bio/environmental determinism. Now with this belief system I've come to the hypothesis that perhaps there are two types of thinkers, ones that are biologically determined by brain matter, logically minded and the emotionally minded. And that while there are some logically minded people that have been brought up in religion (myself included) they generally find there way to a more rational view of life.

Is it worth our time trying to reason with the emotionally minded people that are religious? We find it frustrating beyond belief trying to understand why anyone would believe in such Woo Who Bullshit and in the same way they will never be able to follow the rational, logical road to atheism. Their brains are biologically incapable of working in the mind set of reason and logic to such a degree that is necessary to follow such a path as their emotional part of their brain keeps canceling out that rational path.

I'm not saying they are incapable of all reason, just not to the ability that say "we" are. That being the reason it is that most of the scientific community and higher educated people are atheistic or non-religious. It's not that education causes the lack of belief but that the brain function of these people that leads them to more rationally minded fields, is also the same that leads one to atheism.

Anti-Abortion Groups Push To Outlaw Contraceptives By Redefining Personhood: "pA fringe anti-abortion group, Personhood USA, has been startlingly successful at pushing forward legislation across the country that would redefine life as beginning at the moment of fertilization, effectively outlawing contraceptives like birth control pills. Although the medical community has long been in agreement that fertilization does not mark the beginning of a pregnancy — [...]/p"
