Atheists are what??

by Karen on February 11, 2009

When it comes to liars for Jesus, there is none greater than Ray Comfort.  Take a look at his answer to the FFRF’s billboards, a billboard promoting his new non-interactive anti-atheist site:

Billboard 1

Trina Hooks, the Atheist Examiner, has already slapped that site around here, here and here,  including Comfort’s new(ish) lie about what atheists are (emphasis mine):

Let’s start with the obvious… An atheist is someone who does not believe the existence of deities.

The atheists I know aren’t addle-minded enough to suppose that nothing “made” something. But for Comfort, the use of this type of language sets the stage for his creation (or intelligent design) agenda. It is irrelevant to him [Ray Comfort] whether what he is saying is true. But what better way to introduce his house builder analogy, which, if he told the truth about what atheists think, would prove to be a non sequitur.

Truer words have never been spoken. Ray Comfort really does not care if what he says is true.  As long as it fits his agenda he’ll say it.

That’s photoshopped. What’s the source? Not that Ray Comfort isn’t a liar of course. He _knows_ that’s not true. I’ve told him myself.

Wow, some people not only don’t understand evolution, but refuse to. It’s quite sad.

Lies make baby Jesus cry.

Well, it’s far easier and comfier to believe that ‘God’ made everything than to put in the intellectual effort to attempt to come to grips with the reality.

Saying that ‘nothing’ made ‘everything’ (aside from being a non sequitur) is a banal and simple-minded dismissal of science. You can pretend all you like that Santa Claus exists, but reasonably scrutiny will show otherwise…
