B-b-but, it's bad people USING religion.... or something...

Reminds me of this excellent little animation from Nina Paley.

I had to pick #3, though.

Went with Harris. Because his comment says so much in so few words.

And I'm probably influenced by a long online debate I was reading last night. Actually a Comment section of a blog where believers and nons- were arguing.

Believers suggested atheists were a bunch of ignorant know-nothings, unqualified to snark about religion unless they had read, at least, all of Aquinas. Also claimed many non-believers had been converted by reading all of Aquinas, since his logic for God's existence was irrefutable. Etc.

One atheist said they had done exactly that and remained unconverted. Because Aquinas was obviously dealing off the bottom of the deck, since all his arguments proceeded from the assumption that God did exist. A problem common to all those Great Xian Philosophers so beloved by the admirers of the Emperor's new duds.

since 1) it had the fewest votes and 2) it sums it up perfectly. My second choice would have been Please Stop.

as it perfectly encapsulates the whole fundamentalists of any type meme that floats around here.

It was a tough choice, always is.

just to piss certain people off.
