I'll tell you what I think is funny.

[Cainkane1]

The call in TV program Atheist Experience is located in Austin Texas and one of the main debaters is an ex Minister.

[Freethinker]

What is funny about it?

[Ysidro]

Is this post-modernism? I don't get post-modernism.

[HarryKeogh]

What is funny about it?

The ex-minister's name is Donkeyballs Inmaface

Maybe I should have said ironic instead of funny.

[Tricky]

What's ironic? Lots of ministers lose their faith. Who better to explain the inconsistancies of religion than one who has studied religion in depth?

Is he a master debater?

I thought it was Phil McCracken?

[Monketey Ghost]

Shouldn't this be in humor?

Phil McCracken... that's hysterical. Heh! I love joke names. :roll:

Is that because you think of Texas as less likely to be atheist? That may be true in general, but Austin is (in comparison) a very liberal, artsy town, with sensibilities more like you'd imagine for a coastal city than what you think of for Texas.

[Lord Emsworth]

Just can't lay off preaching, eh?

[Ron_Tomkins]

Son, there's nothing funny about that. There's nothing funny about the Lord. THE LORD GIVETH AND THE LORD TAKETH. AND WHEN THE JUDGEMENT DAY COMES, HE WILL CHOOSE! HE WILL PICK AND CHOOSE! OOOOOHHH HE WILL CHOOSE AND WHERE WILL YOU BE? YOU GOTTA BE WITH YOUR FATHER! YOU GOTTA BE WITH YOUR MOTHER! YOU GOTTA BE WITH OUR SISTER! YOU GOTTA BE WITH THE SEED OF THE LORD!

THE LORD HEARS YOUR PRAYERS! HE WANTS ME TO TELL YOU THAT YOUR PANCREAS IS GOING TO RECOVER! COME HERE! THOU SHALL REPENT!! THOU SHALL REPENT!!!!!

[Mister Agenda]

Stop giving me flashbacks!

[Ron_Tomkins]

Would you settle with flashforwards then?

[Monketey Ghost]

I would! What will the future be like for me, Ron? Does my daughter grow up to be a physicist/jiu-jitsu champion/cellist/dancer? Will I be wealthy thereby? Will the next Star Trek movie be any good, or should I save my money?

[Ron_Tomkins]

Yes to all

Thank you. That will be 700 bucks

[Fnord]

Is he a master debater?
No ... just a cunning linguist.

[Monketey Ghost]

Whatta ripoff. I'm going to a genuine psychic.

Other than misspelling "lawd-ah", that was pretty good.

[Radically Rethinking]

Yet another Reason Why Texas Doesn't Suck.

[Olowkow]

Robert Price, the "Bible Geek" has two PhD's in religion related studies, was a fundy, now an atheist and an expert on the bible. He goes to church in North Carolina (IIRC), just because he likes the company. Dan Barker of the FFRF, was a fundy preacher for 20 years, now a big time atheist organizer.

And Matt Dillahunty of the Atheist Experience and Non Prophets was studying to be a minister, but began asking too many questions. Bright guy, and one of the best atheist defenders I have ever heard.

Do you think my fwiend's name is funny?
Does it make you laugh when I say his name... Biggus... Dickus...

[Darth Rotor]

Austin Texas is a haven for moon bats, liberals, and atheists, if Texas has one.

It's also a great town.

Mo fruitbats, mo flavah!
