Most people will hang on to their beliefs, because the new information comes slowly in tiny little chunks and so is easily disregarded in favor of…"
Hank Ronan replied to kaito girl's discussion 'i knew you answered a question like this before,,but i wanna know "What make you an atheist?"'"Two different words; theism refers to belief, gnosticism refers to knowledge, the words are not exclusive of each other. You can be a gnostic theist ("I believe and know a god exists"), an agnostic theist ("I believe a god exists, but…"

Hank Ronan replied to Keith Murphy's discussion 'How to debunk: "The universe itself is my proof... it wouldn't be here without God"'"There are no logical reasons the universe needs a creator to exist.

Hank Ronan replied to scLovely's discussion 'Are you more of a cat person or a dog person?'"I wouldn't characterize myself as either a cat or a dog person. I've had both (and ferrets and gerbils). My cats have been independent, outdoorsy, and have earned their keep by keeping the rodents under control. They grow up to become…"

Kirk Holden commented on Hank Ronan's blog post 'Religion is pure evil'"The problem with evil is that there is no evil. Evil in discourse means unequivocal, ultimate and certain condemnation from the purely good and purely just standard bearer. That would be god my son."
Allen Sneed commented on Hank Ronan's blog post 'Religion is pure evil'"Unreasoned world views are usually more dangerous than reasoned ones."
