Haha! Oh wow.
I think I need a Doctor facepalming. Hang on.
:docpalm:
There we are.
I think my opinion on "movement" atheism is well known so I won't go on. ...but is there really any point to this sort of stuff? Can something as bizarre an idea as Atheism TV even have an impact? What do its subscribers (on XBMC or whatever) get out of it? What is the end game? De-conversion? Dopamine?
The show did field one call, from a young man whose thoughts were so muddled (he was introduced as devout, then explained he was questioning his faith, then said he’d been dead for a week, then said he often thought the world would be better off after he died) that it’s not really fair to criticize. But it’s worth noting that Dillahunty repeatedly suggested he was dealing with a prank caller but refused to disengage and make time for a caller who might have done a better job of representing himself; it was more important to score rhetorical points off someone clearly not equipped to play.
