First of all, I came here to get the opinions of the people active in this community. I can look up a link in rebuttal to Kent Hovind's presentation so please don't just give me what I can find myself. If you want to reference a link in rebuttal excerpt the relevant point and leave the link for...

Since, as an atheist, having carefully studied the Bible and becoming a firm believer in it I have often entertained the scenario in which, upon Judgment Day or thereabout, when I get the formidable opportunity to witness the science minded atheists being informed of the obvious metaphysical...

It's funny to me, an irreligious individual of the rarest form of true free thought, that I see so many parallels with science and religion. Speculative excursion. What if there were no theory of evolution?

uh, well . . . I'm adding the formidably elongated Hindu test the Rig Veda to Pathway Machine. Or PM as we like to call it. Uhmm. Yeah. Not impressed, I'm sorry to say. First of all, online, all sources seem to spring from one, nothing wrong with that, but typographical errors, grammatical...

Origin of Life: "For at least three-quarters of the book of ages engraved in the earth’s crust the pages are blank." - The World We Live In "The initial steps . . . are not known; . . . no trace of them remains." - Red Giants and White Dwarfs Many-Celled Life: "How many-celled animals...

One of the most common misconceptions held by atheists is the case of the iron chariots. God, it is believed, wasn't strong enough to protect the people of Israel from the people of Canaan due to the former having chariots with iron scythes protruding from their wheels. The refutation: 1...

"A century after Darwin’s death, we still have not the slightest demonstrable or even plausible idea of how evolution really took place - and in recent years this has led to an extraordinary series of battles over the whole question. . . . a state of almost open war exists among the...

Has it not? Do you approve?

Someone, I don't know who, but thank you, brought up the tower of Babel in another thread. I missed it the first time and then found it later and started to make a response, but didn't have time, got distracted later and then couldn't find it again. If you made that post and would like to link...

Dystopian seems to suggest there is no real conflict with the Bible and science because the Bible is completely irrelevant. Would you agree? Let's start with the beginning. What is your take on the conflict, if any, assuming that you acknowledge one given the title of the forum, between science...

How many atheists here were once Christian? If you answered yes, would you like to see religion destroyed and the same question to those who said no.

I've read completely, in fact, published online and proofread three different versions of the Quran and I'm just completely unimpressed. It seems nothing more than a semi-illiterate attempt to endorse religion that is a sort of alternate culture and to mix that with a poor understanding of the...

The skeptic's challenge is this. Produce any alleged contradictions, imperfections, historical or scientific inaccuracies you perceive in the Bible and I will successfully refute them. The only rule is that you can give only one at a time per person. When I answer your first then you can provide...

What is the soul? The English word comes from a root that means "to bind," because the superstitious would bind the hands and feet of the dead to insure that they can't harm the living as the un-dead. This is a real sad case of the closest thing in the English language being close enough to...

The Bible is a terribly misunderstood work. Misrepresented by Christendom and slandered by the heathen, it is unfortunate that the meaning of the Bible is obscured by what amounts to little more than political propaganda from each side. If we set this aside, and we take an honest look at the...
