"I don't doubt that there was an actual rabbi named Yeshua who may be the source of an oral tradition around which a new sect of Judaism coalesced in the first century, but there is very little about him to be found outside the Biblical canon…"

"William,
Hey there again. It's Brandi Williams who goes by the name Debra Stevenson after my dear cousin who I am staying with along with my husband for a while. Maybe till the end of the summer. I haven't seen her in so long. …"

"I don't think it's so much that they're taking the texts at face value, more they are trying to figure out what are the actual teachings of Jesus and what were later additions. Many argue that Jesus was real and there's a…"

"Old thread, but what the heck. The genealogies are different, I think, because they are inventions by different authors. Matthew traces the family line only back to Abraham, while Luke goes all the way back to Adam. Since both go…"

D.O.S commented on M604's group Winning Arguments!
"Roy,
I have no problem with that at all.
Jason is correct a God that alternates between playing hide and seek and search and destroy is far from impressive.
:)"
D.O.S commented on M604's group Winning Arguments!
"Roy,
Another thing you might point out since they are quoting scripture is that according to scripture God is an untrustworthy bastard. God admits to being deceptive. Check out Ezekiel 14:9 and Thesselonians II 2:11 among others. A supreme being who…"

"Roy,
Gravity can be measured. Various experiments have confirmed its existence. It can be observed, though indirectly. It is quantifiable in various ways. How do you quantify/measure God. What experiments have been or can be conducted to determine…"
D.O.S replied to Dallas (on hiatus)'s discussion I Don't Believe in Atheists, by Chris Hedges in the group Nexus Book Club
"That basically concedes a number of myths and stereotypes. What does atheism have to do with fundamentalism or imperialism. Atheist individuals can be either of those but not atheism. And he does care where it comes from. He intentionally…"
D.O.S replied to Sandi's discussion ADOPT AN ATHEIST CAMPAIGN in the group Atheist News
"I wonder if we offer ourselves for adoption will they pay our bills for us?
Didn't Hemant Mehta (not sure if spelled his name right) already sell his soul on e-bay?"
D.O.S replied to Johan Fruh's discussion Things in science that made you go "wow!" in the group Atheists who love Science!
"Research on Absolute Zero. The idea that absolute nothingness is probably not even possible is fascinating to me. The fact that we have not been able to produce the lowest possible temperature, on at which even sub-atomic particles cease motion is…"
D.O.S replied to Dallas (on hiatus)'s discussion I Don't Believe in Atheists, by Chris Hedges in the group Nexus Book Club
"Hey Dallas,
I read that piece of shit when it first came out. Saying I was very disappointed with Hedges would be gross understatement. I'd read various articles and another book by him previously so I had a good impression of him. The…"
D.O.S replied to Hugh Kramer's discussion The Religious Right claims a victory in the "War on Christmas" in the group Atheist News
"How about Happy Incest Day. God the "Father" did fuck his own mother in order to give birth to himself, the "Son." And lets not forget the cheating aspect. Mary was supposed to be engaged to Joseph at that point.
There's…"
D.O.S replied to Hugh Kramer's discussion Deepak Chopra apologizes to Richard Dawkins in the group Atheist News
"Ditto. He should apologize for being such a waste of human flesh."
D.O.S replied to Hugh Kramer's discussion Deepak Chopra apologizes to Richard Dawkins in the group Atheist News
"My first thought was that his most recent books aren't selling well. I usually prefer giving people the benefit of the doubt but Chopra has proven himself to be a media whore and charlatan over and over again. I just see this as another of his…"
D.O.S replied to suzanne Buzz's discussion Should people get their morals from a loving new testament Jesus? But disregard Yahweh and genocide? in the group ORIGINS: UNIVERSE, LIFE, HUMANKIND, AND DARWIN
"There are numerous passages where he comes across as a complete dick. He routinely insults his own disciples. He makes a woman beg and agree to become one of his followers before healing her child. He curses and kills a fig tree for not yielding…"
