Well damn. Oops! Should I take mine out?
ReplyDeleteYou were first. I didn't see it.
ReplyDeleteI think there was some sort of simultaneous action, actually. I refreshed about a minute before I posted, but when I hit "publish" yours appeared above mine. I know my timestamp has to be from about when I started writing...since it's certainly not when I finished! haha
ReplyDeleteI answered his questions in as few words as possible, specifically so I couldn't be quote-mined.
ReplyDeleteGod: Doesn't exist
The Bible: Just a book
Heaven and Hell: Neither exist
Sin: A made-up concept
Salvation: Since sin is made-up, we have nothing to need saving from
Jesus: If he existed, he was just a man.
Pretty hard for him to misinterpret that. So I suspect he'll just ignore simple answers like that, and tell us what it really is we believe. Like usual. Whatever the point of this post, it isn't for honest research for his new book.
Rando:
ReplyDeleteRay will still find a way to quote mine you.

And I think it would go something like this:
God: exist!
The Bible: Just a book?!
Heaven and Hell: exist!
Sin: A concept!
Salvation: sin - need saving from
Jesus: he existed. was just a man?
Oh noez!
This question was an epic fail after "God:". Ray still can't understand that atheism is not a religion and has no doctrine. For example I have a buddhist friend and aside from the fact that we both don't believe in god, we disagree on most every other spiritual topic (i.e is there such thing as a a soul, reincarnation, etc. ). Ray's oversimplified brain is trying to put us in a tiny little box . My guess is he wants to present his book to other christians in a way that makes atheism look like a religion.
ReplyDeleteWhy not let ray get a couple juicy ones.
ReplyDeleteGod: All atheists are required to watch South Park with a religious zeal. Therefor the visualization of god is uniform throughout the atheist community as a small fuzzy dwarf with a monkey tail and bad teeth.
The Bible: If by bible you mean any book written by Dawkin's then of course I know it line for line.
Heaven and Hell: Heaven is Saturday night, Hell is Sunday morning.
Sin: (see sat. night)
Salvation: Salvation is like finding a $20 bill on the floor of a strip joint after you've spent your last single.
Jesus: mows my lawn.
haha! I love it, someone should post it. On a side note, did anyone notice that this post of Ray's has 0 comments. Is that normal?
ReplyDelete^P.S. Terry - We all know Obama is the antichrist and we are voting for him anyways.
ReplyDeleteNaw the zero comments is a little weird. Then again maybe its just the fundies commenting so far and ray doesn't wanna let that through.
How about just:
ReplyDeleteGod: No
Bible: No
Heaven & Hell: No
Sin: No
Salvation: No
Jesus: No
Ray is a Christian R.L. Stine? Ha ha ha.
ReplyDeleteYou know, we get the impression that Ray writes a lot of books. Too bad he is a hack author- The only advertisement his books get are on TBN and his site.

ReplyDeleteOf course, Stine is a better writer. And much scarier.
ReplyDeleteAnyone who responds to this post can get a free copy of the book. Oooooooooohhh.
ReplyDeleteSee that "officially believe" junk? My money says he tries to play up the fact that we don't all agree on absolutely everything in a negative way.
ReplyDeleteEither that or he'll take our similar responses and call it a dogma.
Very nice, Ray. I love direct questions so I shall expound on your requests:
ReplyDeleteTell me, what do atheists (officially) believe about:
God:The Bible:Heaven & Hell:Sin:Salvation:Jesus:
I, and only I, because there is no official atheist dogma, believe that if there were a devil, he would have invented all those concepts to keep you fucking idiots busy and easy to control.
Check my next post for clarification.
Thank you.
I'm in a hurry and don't have time to read through all of the comments, so if this has been said, sorry.
ReplyDeleteRay's blog has become like a web 2.0 site where the users (commenters) provide all the content and he makes money off of it. I would never answer those questions for him, especially on his blog, because I do not want to put money into the pocket of that lying sack of crap. Also, he will just distort it all anyway.
Gotta run.
