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.
