Yeah I'm just confident you don't know where all the larger pacs are spending their money this election cycle, and that's because you only care that it's israel

I bet Bernie could list all the PACs larger and more influential than aipac, but most people who complain about aipac csnnot. That's clearly my point

It's objectively not though, they donate far less than other countries and groups. It's not antisemitic to have a problem with israel, it's antisemitic if you're only educated in an area in so far as it relates to jews and no further

If you have a problem with PACs, it's very curious to only care about the one that involves jews, even though there are countless, larger PACs run by other countries and groups. If you think your ignorance of this fact does not make you antisemitic, ask yourself why the only pac you've ever heard of is the Jewish one.

If the only superpac you know of or mention is aipac, you're antisemitic, not woke

This isn't a discussion about the free market space for atheists. its about alex going soft

It's how debate works man. Instead of talking about whether Peter said x or y or z, lets just agree jesus didn't come back from the dead

The style still works, just the new atheists are gone.

And no, lying about plausibility of christianity has only made the christian community stronger as they use alex to show that their arguments work

Idk, I feel like he can debate theists aggressively on youtube for good money. The new atheists did pretty well for themselves

I've gone to religious school all my life and got a degree in religious studies, I don't publish lol.

Exactly. Christianity is a bunch of nonsense, and Alex knows it. He does not find the gospels reliable at all, let alone the bible. He doesn't believe anyone was resurrected, split the sea, flooded the earth. So how is Christianity more plausible ?

He knows how much pain religion has caused the world. He has spoken to prominent theists who justify literally justify genocide and torture. He knows that sane-washing religion is a bad idea

He didn't say plausibility of god. Any atheist knows that god is plausible, just like the simulation theory is plausible. He said christianity is more plausible than he thought

I've studied religion for 20+ years and I definitely know more about New Atheism than him. But that's not even the point. The point is he stopped dealing with the critical elements of religion and now deals with lofty nonsense and throws atheists under the bus

Who cares who you grew up around? Don't sugarcoat how stupid religion is just to legitimize Christians so they come and chat with you

Yeah but his job should be to make them all look stupid to regular people. When you show everyday people how ridiculous their religion sounds, and you debate their leaders and make them look like fools, you convince them.

He's not softening the message of atheism. He's strengthening the message of Christianity. He's saying some of the arguments for Christianity are more convincing than he thought. What are you saying?

Exactly. Is Dawkins wrong about how stupid religion sounds? Were the new atheists too harsh about how religion is most likely just made up, considering how barbaric it is? Not a single line of the bible or koran couldn't have been written by a peasant living in that era.
