Its hard enough, I would imagine, to defend religion using intelligent rhetoric and, y’know, logic. But as bad as your average believer might be, Ray Comfort makes the lot of them look barely bright enough to breath.

So, apparently the bar is set so low at the ‘Examiner’ that you don’t even have to be coherent to get published. It isn’t his position I’m talking about, just his thought pattern.Anyhow, I will say this. At least the man is honest. You won’t find that a whole lot in this age of “I’m [...]
I doubt thats what he was irritated about. I doubt he was annoyed at the idea that he might ask for help. He was annoyed at the idea that he might have asked for help from his fairy godmother, or the monster under his bed. Wouldn’t you be insulted if someone, in all seriousness, chided [...]
