Re: February 2012 Screwballs
It has nothing to do with religion or theology, but youtuber humphrey1967's pretty much defines "screwball" when responding to another user at http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sq3GGwgV7R0

Not that he's the only person to ever cry "racist" at any non-liberal who dares to even sneeze in Obama's general direction, but it's one of the more blatant examples I've seen in awhile.MrConsitution: How can he/President claim this in this video, I am amazed at how the American people can believe this President on what he says, follow what he does not what he says, he is a spinner and swinger at the same time, he sincerely believes he's right, but he is sincerely wrong!"
"humphrey1967: @MrConsitution And you are a racist, you source of news is from fox and people like you, ignorant, racist and moronic are what keeps this country from moving forward.

We're not used to seeing the name of Humphrey tied in with Screwballs around here anyway.

Re: February 2012 Screwballs
"Years ago, I mean decades ago, I read a quote about politicians performing quid pro quo favors for campaign cash, and whether or not we could prove it. The guy who was quoted opined that it was difficult to determine. He noted that in many cases, the payoff might not take the form of votes on legislative action -- those might be detectable, and so are avoided -- but could take subtler forms, like the question that is never asked at a hearing.
The media's doing a terrific job of not asking questions it doesn't want to know the answer to. It doesn't ask these questions in bulk, and the great volume of questions it doesn't ask makes it cheap to not ask questions.
And it passes these savings on to you, the customer." Ace

January feature up.
I'm still debating what to do about Little Miss Black Screen and her "response" (guffaw) vid. Since a lot of people would whine if I started beating up a little girl, regardless of how much a fool she was being, I figure my options are:
1) Forge post linked from the vid description of the original Jephthah vid.
2) Make a vid where she's refuted by Jephthah's daughter herself (voiced by Melanie Zens, who's about the same age too).
She has only 29 views now, and I imagine half of that came from here, so I'm heavily leaning towards 2, especially given how little time I have right now.

Re: February 2012 Screwballs
DJ decided to start February off screwy. (Like every other month.)
First, note this post.
Now compare this to the newest post, that is, the newest post at the time of my posting this, that can be found here
This starts with:
As if that wasn't bad enough, see what else I found in that last post.Previously I described several deceptive apologetic strategies. I want to highlight one more: The use of empty rhetoric utterly lacking in substance.
Please note that Mr. "I know too much" did not even recognize that David Marshall was saying how to pronounce the word "God" in various languages, and he's right! Arabic Christians refer to God as Allah and an Arabic Bible would have verses like "IN the beginning was the Word and the Word was with Allah and the Word was Allah."The reason I bring this additional deceptive strategy up is because Christian apologist David Marshall continues to spout off that there is one God who can be seen in every religion. I had asked him who answers prayers? His response:
Who answers prayer? God, of course. That's "Bog" in Russian, "Dieu" in French, "Shang Di" in Chinese (also other names), and "Allah" in Arabic.
Now if you read the link I provided he did not attempt to answer the difficulties inherent in saying this. He responded with rhetoric, empty rhetoric, that is utterly lacking in substance.
There are other problems with his rhetoric. As an evangelical Marshall does not think God through Allah authorized Mohammad to be his prophet, for Marshall would say God's prophetic word through Mohammad contains obvious errors. God through Mohammad wants Muslims to kill Jews while the God of the Old Testament called Jews his chosen ones and granted them Palestine as an eternal possession. God through Mohammad said Jesus did not die on the cross while God in the New Testament said he died and that he arose from the dead.
Instead, way too well-educated DJ goes on about how Allah and YHWH are not the same.
Note also the article is about arguments like Pascal's Wager and yet does not show the apologist today arguing that. Note also how the article ends.
Let's hope DJ's wife doesn't read what he writes.No wonder I maintain that defending the Christian faith makes an otherwise intelligent person look stupid. That's because these Christian apologists are emotionally engaged much like romantic love is blind.Last edited by ApologiaPhoenix; February 1st 2012 at 09:27 AM.
