Making the news today....

Yet another atheist blah, blah blah..

This man loves to sanctimoniously pontificate against people of faith on matters of morality... and yet..,,,

 

 

 

I am offended by “sanctimoniously” and “pontificate “

I would have been much happier with “this guy is an arsehole” as arsehole does not have any religious associations

 

“Sanctimonious “

“making a hypocritical show of religious devotion, piety, righteousness, etc.: They resented his sanctimonious comments on immorality in America.”

“Pontificate”

“Speak in a dogmatic manner

 

 

And yet???

I love the example of ONE bloke, a physicist, who is a bit of a perv apparently, versus millennia of shite in the name of some silly superstition

I chose my words very carefully and very deliberately, I thought they described his manner perfectly.

I think Krauss’ beliefs and theory’s ARE definitely a form of religion, his own hypocrisy makes him ‘fair game’ IMO.

anyone and anything is game my friend and open to criticism. i'm just relieved i would no longer be burned at the stake for expressing obvious facts, never mind opinion?

[westphalian]

oops, sorry Timon, i thought you were referring to me and not Krauss. Hey, i don't mind either way. all good fun

Trump is an easy and obvious target. More disturbing is how one of his predecessors gets a totally free pass.

Funny, but I vaguely remember Bill Clinton being semi-impeached for some of his sexual indiscretions? We also didn't have a tape of Slick Willy admitting to sexually assaulting woman.

When all else fails, bring in a Clinton or 2. It never gets old.

Aye, at least Clinton tried to deny it. Trump's a melt, a shambolic version of a human and a terrible president.

I know. It’s like all Clintons ‘sins’ have been washed whiter than snow (at least by CNN and the media)
Trump isn’t ‘likeable’ enough to pull that off.

You see Ti, I don't think it is. Everyone knows that politicians are a bunch of shitehawks. It's just that Trump has the audacity to not even pretend that we're being taken for mugs.  Next level fuckery.

Mate, they're all arseholes.  Unless Bernie Sanders makes it, we're all doomed.
