Quotes from RRS posters of the year. Unofficial.
I was curious as to what some of the best quotes from RRS posters you liked. They can be serious. They can be funny. They can be the ridiculous things theists say.
"We are a nation of Christians and Muslims, Jews and Hindus -- and nonbelievers."Obama

"God both created logic (as we know it) and sustains it...and logic in its ultimate form is an attribute of God. As mentioned, we both presuppose logic, and my proof is that by asking me these questions you are appealing to logic to do so, using logic to do so, and then you expect a logical answer. We both presuppose logic, but the one that can't justify it commits the fallacy, and that sir, is not I."
"Experiments are the only means of knowledge at our disposal. The rest is poetry, imagination." Max Planck
"The Bible is the only one we know of that is infallible; it’s the one I use. Any statement that is not in harmony with the Bible is so obviously in error it’s funny."

"God is omnipotent, omniscient, omnibenevolent, - it says so right here on the label. If you have a mind capable of believing all three of these divine attributes simultaneously, I have a wonderful bargain for you. No checks please. Cash and in small bills." - Robert A Heinlein.

You folks have all been in school... Cite your sources!!!
Seriously, though. Do the little -- Person's Name thing at the end. It'd be even better if you'd link to the thread.
I think this thread is a great idea. I'm submitting my own signature.
Atheism isn't a lot like religion at all. Unless by "religion" you mean "not religion". --Ciarin

Books about atheism
but they did cite their sources... the title of each post has the name (first 2 exnilhole, and 1 paisley)
What Would Kharn Do?
"I have faced my own mortality more than once. I am comforted by the fact that when death comes for me, it'll be one big step, and then it'll all be done. I will never again feel pain, hunger, sadness, loss, or fear. I will once again be a part of the expanding and ever-changing universe, of which I have been a part since its inception. I, among all the potential humans carried in the bodies of my mother and father, was lucky enough to experience life, and I have done my best to experience it well and thoroughly. My death will both separate me and unite me with the universe. When I die, I will have lived the best that I could, and experienced more joy than the trillions of other eggs and sperm who never get the chance. I am lucky. I am privileged, and I am honored. I take my stroke of dumb luck very seriously, and I feel like I owe it to myself to make the most of it."

I'm not sure whether that is more funny than scary or vice versa.
What is scary is your avatar. I hope I never piss you off.

If by some twist of fate this conflict results in a bare-bottom spanking, I request vidz plz.
I think it is scary that someone takes archaic writing to be infallible over observed reality and considers everything that conflicts with it to be in error. That type of reasoning or should I say lack of reasoning has more in common with the Middle Ages than a modern society. This comes from a poster, eXnihilO that is trying hard to be our big brother and bring us heathen infidel heretics back to Jesus. This kind of comment convinced me he had cotton in his ears and was wearing blinders. Or he is like the little kid and Santa, I know he's real, I know he's real.
If you haven't read his logic and reasoning visit the thread - A More Important Question, starting from Post #7.
Or the thread he started called Atheist Indictment: Logic

I hate when people make a paragraph out of one sentence.

that works. His mad prose flows like Kerouac's original scroll, off on some wild journey through the dark he knows not where...
