  Sam Harris - On the Freedom to Offend an Imaginary God

  imo an excellent blog post by sam harris..... we are free to burn the quran or any other book, and to criticize muhammad or any other human being.

  let no one forget it.. most secular liberals think that all religions are the same, and they consider any suggestion to the contrary a sign of bigotry.

  somehow, this article of faith survives daily disconfirmation.

  gospel of jesus's wife is fake, claims expertscholar says papyrus fragment believed to provide evidence that jesus was married is a modern forgery.

  karen king from harvard university holds the papyrus fragment that has four words written in coptic, which are believed to prove jesus was married.

  To assault atheists as arrogant does not make the evidence go away.

  But you said "few" and that was an exaggeration.

  I'm sure that the number of non-violent Nazi party members far outweighed those who were directly involved in killing Jews. Were we wrong to speak out against the party because of the "few"?

  No one is angry. We are just sad that we live in a world full of delusional people.

  It's an insult to my father to call god by that same title. If he exists, he has shown himself to be completely useless.

  To borrow from Dawkins: "If he existed and chose to reveal it, God himself could clinch the argument, noisily and unequivocally, in his favor."

  So, save the condescending bullshit.

  Imaginary people hard to defend, so it's easy to just resort to violence to get your point accross.

  Perhaps not directly, leavingwt. But it seems to me like he should have left his opinion of the content out if he didn't want to be seen as apologetic.

  I don't think it says anything about the individuals, Tammy, but is rather a commentary on the belief system itself. So to insinuate that this would lead to racism isn't fair.

  But by referring to the video as "crude and disgusting," in the same breath isn't he defending their reaction on some level?
