If you have a couple hours, read THIS. If you close the page before getting to the end of all the chapters, you will have proven to yourself that you do NOT have an open mind.

http://whydoesgodhateamputees.com/

I haven't had much time to read this, so I've only gotten through 4 or 5 chapters, but something is becoming increasingly obvious the more I read: this guy is the Michael Moore of atheism. He keeps pulling out quotes (which he doesn't really cite properly to begin with), attaches crazy ideas I doubt he even believes, and then before readers have a chance to think for themselves, he attempts to steer them into one of two bullshit conclusions. (One of which he knows the reader will reject, but is only there to make the other conclusion seem acceptable by comparison.)

He tries to twist reality and keep people from thinking for themselves about the evidence. He constantly tries to demean and belittle people who may think different in an attempt to drive more people to accept his propaganda, after all how many people will stand there and be laughed at when they can just go along with the crowd. Needing to rely on insults like this just reveals how weak his position really is.

Even the title of this book is something I'd expect from Michael Moore. It's designed to imprint a suggestion on the reader's mind. If it were in any way 'fair', it would have been written "Does God hate amputees?". By starting off with "Why does God hate amputees?", it's jumping to the conclusion that he does hate them, and hoping to drag the reader into that prejudged conclusion.

Everything I've read so far has him taking an extreme position, in hopes that even the 'fair, open-minded person' will get caught in a trap of trying to compromise between two views. This is done so that the person gets drawn to the position he really wants them to be at while making them think they have come to a 'fair' compromise. By essentially making someone lie to themself, it makes the twisted reality all the more difficult to realize and correct.

He is so transparent it isn't even funny. How blind does a person have to be to accept what this guy is saying?

The Bible does a bit more than "mention" slavery, it in fact condones it as far as beating your slave within an inch of his/her life.

But I sure as FUCK do not base my atheism on the bible. Especially because I never read the dumb thing in the first place!

Oh... I guess I have my answer...
