The Atheist Blogger

A few days ago I published some quotes from a Muslim who has contacted me to try and convert me away from atheism. I’ve continued the conversation with him just to see where it goes next, and in all honesty it is pretty entertaining. Every time I try to end it, he just says something even more outrageous that I feel compelled to email back and get him to explain his views. So again, for your enjoyment, the deluded stylings of Abu:

If human evolution was taking place why fir example haven’t the people of Antarctica (eskimos) over a thousands of years evolved by growing body hair like the polar bears so it naturally keeps them warm.

Erm…because they already had clothes to keep them warm? Since short-haired Eskimos don’t die out there isn’t an over-abundance of long-haired genes going around the Eskimo community. I guess we’d better demand they all live naked from now on and see what happens a million years down the line…perhaps not.

Science is concrete evidence whilst a theory is just a theory open to opinions. So please let me differentiate the difference between science and scientific theory because homosexuality, darwins (human) theory are scientific THEORIES.

Yet another misunderstanding of the difference between scientific theory and scientific fact. Scientific fact is an observation that we know happens (i.e. Evolution), scientific theory is our understanding of that fact (i.e.Theory of Evolution). A theory isn’t open to any opinions at all. People might like or hate a theory, but that doesn’t have any affect on whether it is true or not…

Also, I love how homosexuality is now a theory. That’s a big blow to the gay community…”I’m sorry guys, but you can’t PROVE you really are gay…”
