2018-04-02 14:00:50 UTC

2018-04-02 14:00:55 UTC  

he was very anti-PC

2018-04-02 14:01:26 UTC  

he was always speaking out against islam

2018-04-02 14:01:38 UTC  

He was a commie?

2018-04-02 14:01:47 UTC  

I always took him as more of a libertarian kind of guy.

2018-04-02 14:02:34 UTC  

I wonder if any of those people knew what they were getting into when they were called to that meeting. scary stuff

2018-04-02 14:03:25 UTC  

yes he was a trotskyite

2018-04-02 14:04:10 UTC  

though im not sure if there was a context to it

2018-04-02 14:04:16 UTC  

his brother was also a communist in his younger days

2018-04-02 14:04:27 UTC  

christopher wrote about thomas paine a lot

2018-04-02 14:04:30 UTC  

he admired paine

2018-04-02 14:04:46 UTC  

paine was one of the philosophers of the american revolution

2018-04-02 14:04:50 UTC  

an englishman

2018-04-02 14:04:57 UTC  

he wrote the rights of man

2018-04-02 14:05:32 UTC  

but he also supported reparations and things like that

2018-04-02 14:05:39 UTC  

there is a good chance he would have reevaluated some of his views if he saw what was happening today

2018-04-02 14:06:02 UTC  

you know who is brother is?

2018-04-02 14:06:08 UTC

2018-04-02 14:06:34 UTC  

and strongly religious

2018-04-02 14:06:52 UTC  

i was talking about Christopher

2018-04-02 14:07:06 UTC  

Was the brother an outspoken atheist too?

2018-04-02 14:07:14 UTC  

Peter wasnt

2018-04-02 14:07:22 UTC  

Peter was a communist in his 20s though

2018-04-02 14:07:24 UTC  

I'm curious what makes atheists turn atheism into a religion.

2018-04-02 14:07:41 UTC  

Islam is the religion of peace change my mind

2018-04-02 14:09:03 UTC  

oh dear

2018-04-02 14:09:06 UTC  

somoene i talked to said the cosmological argument convinced them god was real

2018-04-02 14:09:07 UTC  

lol

2018-04-02 14:10:08 UTC  

It could be that Atheists don't really tackle the philosophy of religion

2018-04-02 14:10:20 UTC  

it's all about empiricism

2018-04-02 14:10:37 UTC  

you rarely hear atheists give good arguments against Thomas Aquinas for example

2018-04-02 14:11:23 UTC  

I'm not an atheist, but I'm not religious either, I think it's a pointless debate

Outstanding Red Team. We'll get you a keg of beer for that one.
