A religious person full of shit you say? Well, as long as the organized branches of christianity never lie to further their agenda or financial well-being everything should be ok. :hmm:

I used to think there was something good about these people, even though they were wrong. I thought they had something good in their hearts. Most of these people are just filthy liars. Deceitful pieces of religious shit and what's really disgusting is they KNOW they are full of shit. I could almost give them a pass if they were simply mistaken, but they are FRAUDS. Fuckin churchy douche bags.

Sounds like the boy was an Atheist all along.....why did he have to lie? Does he realize that he has given a bad name to Atheists?

You're obviously a much better human being than all those "Fuckin churchy douche bags" could ever hope to be.

This is probably the most stupid thing I've ever read on the internet. And I have read lots of youtube and foxnews.com comments, the bar was set pretty high.

But I guess it shows how gullible and wanting for something to latch on to the faithful are, an 'atheist' (your comment, not mine) was able to author a book that millions of them lapped up.

He wrties: 'They should read the Bible, which is enough. The Bible is the only source of truth.

Quite the atheist.

Most stories I hear about people visiting heaven or whatnot are often said to have taken place during a person's sleep and dreaming, while they're "dead", or when they're under the influene of something.

I guess if you saw him, you saw him...

Many Atheists encourage people to read the bible since it will open their eyes to how batshit insane the bible is.

"I like to think of Jesus like with giant eagles wings, and singin' lead vocals for Lynyrd Skynyrd with like an angel band and I'm in the front row and I'm hammered drunk!"

O'r Jordan's stormy banks I stand
And cast a wistful eye
To Canaan's fair and happy land
Where my book deal lies

The kid is going to clean up a second book explaining why his first book was crap. He has laid the foundation for a lucrative future of endless preacher babble.

Or you saw a remembered image that your brain showed to you.

The brain shows us pictures of what we've seen before, no matter how briefly.

the truth is always some third way. He means something particular by FCDBs. Those types exist. It does not make all believers frauds. If he wants to believe that it does then he is wrong, but at the same time his condemnation, which has some truth to it, does not mean he holds himself to being superior. Some religious people are frauds and pointing it out doesn't have to imply that one thinks oneself better. I don't think drawing that inference is anymore fair than saying all believers are frauds.

<--changed below for accuracy!!

Many Atheists encourage people to read the bible since it will open their eyes because they are closet Christians!
