“Why do creationists lie?” Since: Jun 07
Location hidden |
What does it mean when religious groups gang together and pay for anti-atheist campaigns online?
Forums posts, slanted blogs - the dirty world of religious propoganda is what I'm talking about. Not the crazies who copy and paste, but the malicious. Who are the people that are willing to lie about another group for money? How can they reconcile their dishonesty with their assumed religious beliefs? We have all seen godbots - crazy people who lose all arguments, because they are crazy. But theism is big business. These cults are getting smarter and employ PR people to "spin" science questions away and spread their propaganda through the press. The most active appears to be the Discovery Institute. Even though this is an Atheist forum, we should expect believers from all faiths to come by and try to indoctrinate us. However we get high proportion of Discovery Institute Creationists. People like the infamous Buck Crick, Educated What, Grameen Ferox (aka Educated What). Some of these propoganda posters will assume an atheist identity and attempt to draw atheist fundies out of the woodwork (none have fallen for it yet) Some create "cute" personalities to try and hide their Creationist potshots (nanoanomaly). I want to try and understand this class of 'human being" and I use the term loosely. What makes a human being compromise their principles and become a universal lying machine? |

Their belief that lying for Jesus is perfectly acceptable! The ends justifies the means!

Judged: 1 This is an important point. To lie so openly and shamelessly is what I find amazing. I think these clowns know that they are spinning propoganda. It's been about long enough time for them to realise that they can't win any fact based arguments here. So their tactic is to flood threads with misinformation, deliberately long posts. To try and "win" by exposure - similar to a common email spammer. |

Judged: 1 1 1 These people ruin the experience of a forum - the mutual sharing of ideas, based in reality. Having to read quotes from the disproven bible and ignorant views on homosexuality, atheists, heck f8cking communism and hitler too. This is getting plain silly. Propoganda merchants need to be called the f*ck out. |

Judged: 1 Your beliefs I don't care about, you can be as ignorant and stupid as you like. But when it comes to you spreading filth, well thats a different matter entirely. |

Judged: 2 2 2 Sorry filth in your eyes is not considered filth to others. Christians will spread information about God whether you like it or not. It's our right and our freedom. |

Judged: 2 2 2 This thread actually shows what a desperate lunatic you are to go to the extent of making things up and making this about me. Very laughable Satanist, but what happened to your preaching about ignoring me. You can't! Every time you respond to me, make up threads, and twist words, I know I have gotten to you. Bwahahahaha! |

Judged: 3 3 2 why do you assume that they have principles contrary to what they are doing? your principles allow you to slander people, and I do not think you have sold out in so doing - I think you are being true to yourself and your views. If you would document your charges it might help. one only knows when you are slandering onesself, and not when you are slandering others. your accusatory style makes you suspect, and weakens your case - especially since you seem to specialize in providing no proof for your accusations. it would be a pity if you are like the little boy who cried wolf too many times, and the last time it is a wolf. we would like to be warned by a messenger whom we can trust, and who documents his warnings sufficiently. you accuse and accuse, and where is your proof? same with your statement that there is no god. where is your proof? you must make assertions. it could be that you are correct, but it would not be because you have proof or evidence, it would be just a good guess. people like you weaken the case you try to make, by being obscene and by being a false accuser in one instance. you have to be a good boy all the time to be believable, and you have to document your accusations. try it, you might be smart enough to do it. can you find out who the folks are who are trained to do this propaganda for the Discovery folks? many of us would be delighted if you could prove it. it would serve as a fair warning then, and not as alarmist wild accusations. I do not think BC has many principles to sell out, and Ithink he would rave on even if not paid by anyone. that is just my guess. |

Judged: 3 3 2 that was to ewhat. I do not like him either. tell me how your being obscene and silly advances the discussion. seems to me it drives it further downhill. that is the trouble with overconfident hard atheists, too often. they are as puffed up with pride as many of the fundies are. they do not have to prove anything - if they say it , it must be true. and they get to insult people, but cannot be criticized themselves. the two extremes deserve each other - but decent agnostic atheists do not deserve to have the good name of atheism tarred by being "represented" by the arrogant atheists. |
