Hey I heard that PZ Myers keeps 5 children locked up in his basement as sex slaves. There will be no benefit of doubters or devil's advocates here. Go forth and spread this truth for the sake of the children! /s

Ah, this would be the same PZ Myers who accused me of a catalogue of misogyny and hatred because he couldn't read a comment I wrote in Reddit properly and mistakenly assumed that my wife is unemployed.

Atheism+ is more religion than most religions.

brightcityvice · 2013-08-11T14:24:36+00:00

Due process? But witch hunts are so much easier!

Lonemango · 2013-08-11T15:03:45+00:00

This is atheism +, There is no room for critical thinking and doubt in this skeptics organization!

TracyMorganFreeman · 2013-08-11T14:11:54+00:00

I can understand finding critical examination and due process frustrating. I can understand some people find it difficult. I cannot understand just throwing it out the window/being against it.

There's a great quote I love by Christopher Hitchens: "The struggle against totalitarianism has always been the struggle between the literal and ironic mind."

These people, so-called skeptics, have no idea that they've joined a cult. The very same people who most claim to reason and doubt are actively mocking reason and doubt if doing so flatters their ideological preconceptions about the world. A child could see the irony in this but they cannot. You just can't make this stuff up.

"skeptics

Translating from crazy to normal.

Well guys, look what the Slymepit did with that "Stand with Jane Doe" pic. Have fun: http://www.quickmeme.com/Peezus-the-Pervert/?upcoming lol

Woah woah woah, just what exactly is going on here?

It seems like some tiny little uninteresting non-event in an elevator caused this whole ruckus with these insane "feminists". Now all the well known athiests are apparently rapists just magicall overnight. What the hell is "Athiesm+" I've never heard of it until really a few days ago.

All of this is truly insane and absolutely twisted. This feel like some bizarre mountain out of a molehill situtation gone completely out of control. What the fuck is wrong with these so called feminists? I don't know what these "feminists" are trying to do, but if its earn sympathy they are seriously screwing that up.

Dear atheist+'ers, please don't try and co-opt my and others non-beliefs for your social agenda, k, thx, bye.

Codeshark · 2013-08-11T17:44:40+00:00

The annoying thing about that quote is that saying "I can't give any more details other than he pinned me down and had sex with me as it would identify myself" implicitly accuses him of just constantly raping women.

"There will be no rational thought or due process here."

guywithaccount · 2013-08-11T22:28:01+00:00

"There will be no heresy here."

Also, if it happened the way the title suggests, it's a pretty clear case of libel. Time to hire a bloodthirsty lawyer.

Dronelisk · 2013-08-11T14:15:20+00:00

PZ meyers lol

Perpetual_dissident · 2013-08-11T20:32:59+00:00

Well, to me it's self evident that's a concerted effort to destroy someone's reputation, and imparciality and truth are at the very end of their list of priorities.

DavidByron · 2013-08-12T16:06:22+00:00

Guilty until proven female.

kragshot · 2013-08-14T06:21:56+00:00

It's all under the aegis of feminism trying to co-op/stage a coup on the skeptic community.

God help us; every one....
