Frank B. Finite

A "True" Atheist

 

Lay off of the crusades for goodness sake! (Part 3)

Welcome to the third and final installment (and if you call it a "trinity", I will have your named wiped from my fan club roster and you will be black-balled from every coffee house across the nation!) of why appealing to christian atrocities to discredit christianity is really a logical fallacy.

Now, this article is going to be short and direct, but it must be said, and said by someone.

Let's just say that if we keep score of how many human animals permanently lost their consciousness as a result of the actions by other human animals of the two competing ideologies - atheism (hooray!) and christianity (boo!), then I have to say that our score stinks worse than a pile of used rental bowling shoes at closing time on Sunday night!

 

 

In fact, let's pretend that we are keeping a bowling score when counting the number of human animals who permanently lost their consciousness. And let's even give ourselves a handicap. Let's count only the 20th century for our beloved atheism, but count ALL of recorded history for those killed in the name of Christ.

If atheism bowled a 300, then christianity (even with our ENORMOUS handicap, which is like giving the fundies gutter rails!) scored only a measly 39.

Ouch!

Do you see what I am getting at my fellow atheists?

I think we need to close the snack bar, stop the music, switch off the ball return, unplug the pinball machines, return the shoes, flick the lights, turn off the sign, lock the doors, and close shop on this little topic.

It seems that this is a sleeping giant that we would rather not awaken.
