Logic Lessons: Conclusion and Resources

Image
So many logical fallacies, so little time... In this series, I gave particular emphasis to some of the most frequent logical fallacies that I have encountered from atheists and leftists. There are quite a few, and some are even being "invented", but they are variations on a theme and fit into broader categories. I don't believe that there's a need to learn each and every fallacy by name. By the way, I suggest caution instead of tactlessly naming someone's logical fallacy during a friendly discussion. Especially when discussing Immanuel Kant while shooting a game of billiards at a biker bar. You'll probably look pretentious. But if someone is being a condescending jerk, go for it. Not at the biker bar, though. Yes, this happens! Like the guy who cries, "Libel!" while committing (documented) libel himself. Some fallacies are the monstrous illegitimate offspring of other fallacies. That is, they can be blended and compounded. There have

Are Atheists the Intelligent Ones?

Stolen with permission from Kirk Hastings This kind of thing is laughably fallacious. Every once in a while, someone will hit me with the claim that they are smarter than Christians simply because they choose to disbelieve that God exists and what the Bible says about them (Psalm 14.1, Proverbs 1.7, Romans 1.18-22). They are ignorant (willingly or otherwise) of the fact that some of the greatest intellects of all time have been Bible-believing Christians. Further, I have had some giggles by eviscerating fallacious remarks by someone claiming to be smarter than us st00pid dumb Xtians. My feeling is that people make this kind of claim simply to bolster their fragile egos and to gain some self-worth, which should come from a relationship with the Creator of the universe. By the way, it is ridiculous to worship the intellect, as if that was the sole measure of someone's worth!

American Christian Persecution - Again

Image
So far, 2012 has been a bad year for atheists and evolutionists . But you wouldn't know it, the way atheopaths are attacking anything Christian and trying to destroy it. (It's been tried for centuries, so we're not going away until we're all called home.) But loud misotheists and evolutionists still resort to childish stalking, tantrums, persecution and all sorts of other nonsense. With the assistance of political correctness and leftist activist judges, they have managed to make the public at large detest them even more. But it is not always bleak. Christians have preached in decadent New Orleans for quite a long time. But the police there tried to put a stop to their exercise of free speech and freedom of religion . The ordinance was blocked by a federal judge (there are a few with some sense), pending the outcome of a hearing. The atheo-fascist activist "Freedom from Religion Foundation" wants to strip away the rights of students in the Kountze

More Steps Toward a Police State

Edited 9-28-2012 Hatetheists will naturally laugh at the title and this article (even to the point of disagreeing with me for its own sake). Some people are too young, uninformed and/or looking for excuses to hate to be aware of what has happened in the not-too-distant past. Totalitarianism is not normally something that happens quickly. The erosion of liberties takes place gradually, and when tyrants rule, cowed people wonder what happened. One advantage of having free speech is the ability to sound the alarm. While we still can. The nonsense of politically correct speech is increasing. It is an excuse to stifle free speech. I was watching some comedy shows on some of those increasingly popular rerun channels. There were jokes in them that were innocuous for their time, and would be harmless today. But they could not be done on modern TV shows because professional racists like Al Unsharpton would be organizing protests in front of the network's headquarters. People live i

Killing the Evolution Werewolf

Evolution can be likened to a werewolf. It is unnatural, has no right to exist, destroys lives, perpetuates its own curse and should be put down. stock.xchng/busangane "How can you say that, Cowboy Bob? Evolution is a scientific fact!" Nope. Despite the rantings of Darwin's undereducated cheerleaders and fundamentalist stormtroopers, evolution is not a "fact", and it is not "science" . Sure, we are subjected to tendentious interpretations of facts shoved through evolutionary presuppositions and told, "Here is proof!", but actual examinations of the facts do not support it. Also, evolution is a belief system about the past using scientific methods; this is historical science, not observational science, and the two should not be equivocated . The philosophies of evolutionism have been applied to economics and governments, making it into a disastrous religion . Although proponents of evolution claim to have reason on their side, logic

What If Christians Acted Like Muslims?

Mohammedans attacked American embassies, killing an ambassador and other members of the diplomatic corps. (Note to B. Hussein Obama, "corps" in this context is pronounced "core".) Of course, it was sheer coincidence that coordinated attacks on American embassies happened on September 11, yes? Sure it was. And of course, they were perfectly right in rioting and killing people because they were "offended" by an amateur film that insulted Mohammed, never mind that the people they killed had nothing to do with the film. Some countries believe in freedom of speech (except the United States, where Mohammedans are being coddled more and more, on our way to Sharia law). Christians put up with a great deal of ridicule and outright hatred. What if we did not actually follow the teachings of the Bible? Washington, DC — The so-called "Reason Rally" had about one hundred nervous people in attendance because of threats by Christian radicals. Being
