This conversation about a store that has a religious Christmas theme in the window and has received complaints.

Person 1: I'm atheist and I couldn't care less how they decorate their windows as long as the aren't discriminating against anyone in employment  or business practices.

Person 2: Why does it have to always be about Atheists, it's Muslims who complained.

Person 1: I didn't say it was about Atheists just giving the perspective of someone who doesn't believe in God or Allah or Satan for that matter....

Person 3: I assume you believe in atheism... There's no lack of belief. That's how ridiculous the argument is. You cannot shut off your belief system. Second, you have to believe in the importance of God to identify yourself as a nonbeliever. Atheism I thought was founded on logic, it has lost its way.

WTF? I'm sure that sounded good in his head. :no: So in this case I guess logic took the crazy train :biggrin:

Sounds like the crazy train just went express!  :biggrin:

Arguing with Christians is like playing chess with a pigeon.  No matter how good I am at chess, the pigeon is just going to knock over the pieces, shit on the board and strut around like it's victorious.

The truth is slow, but relentless. Over time it becomes irresistible.

I just read an interesting take on why low gas prices are bad for US oil companies.

It seems the Saudis are welcoming the low prices and are in no hurry to cut production and therefore raise the price. They believe that most of the new US production is in shale oil and that US companies can't continue to produce at such low prices. Shale oil is much more expensive to extract.

They think that eventually the US companies will have to dramatically raise prices or cut back in production and they will once again be the top producers.
