The Rational Response Squad is a group of atheist activists who impact society by changing the way we view god belief. This site is a haven for those who are pushing back against the norm, and a place for believers of gods to have their beliefs exposed as false should they want to try their hand at confronting us.

Buy any item on AMAZON, and we'll use the small commission to help end theism, dogma, violence, hatred, and other irrationality. Buy an Xbox 360 -- PS3 -- Laptop -- Apple

Ouch. That was pretty painful to watch.

Most theistic proponents don't even support TAG, for reasons like this. Slick just spent 30 minutes making himself sound dense. Although, I'm noticing a parallel with Mr. M where he seems to think repetition of a flawed argument makes the argument better. :/

Everything makes more sense now that I've stopped believing.

Except that Slick thinks OA's first argument begs the question. Smiling

So Mr M is even denser than Matt Slick? Wow!
