Which means you put false words in the other person's mouth and then you say how they're wrong. It's like knocking over a 'straw man'.

For...I just loved Berlinski's double standards. For his first consideration he admits that religions have committed atrocities throughout the ages and seems to be fine with that. Then he turns around and says atheism is worse because they did the same thing. Not that his examples actually proved his position. Hitch easily swept them aside with his reasoning and the facts. His second consideration was that atheism is dogmatic. WTF? Aside from the fact that he gave no evidence for this position he came to conclusions about its effect on science that are just insane. Obviously this man has no idea where the word 'dogma' comes from. His third consideration about atheism's relation with morals was again deftly swept away by Hitch, but more than that he completely failed to demontrait religion's superiority in that area.Nicholasnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-362590194397112658.post-40426652485633177252010-09-21T06:32:11.000-04:002010-09-21T06:32:11.000-04:00well, im glad both berlinski and the presenter dis...well, im glad both berlinski and the presenter disqualify themselves.mlonnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-362590194397112658.post-23260133542922454262010-09-21T01:21:19.000-04:002010-09-21T01:21:19.000-04:00master of straw? don't get itmaster of straw? don't get itAUburnt2acrispnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-362590194397112658.post-33598370996863629332010-09-20T18:53:14.000-04:002010-09-20T18:53:14.000-04:00David Berlinski equals the master of straw.

Does he think we actually are forced to behave morally? It seems obvious we are not forced to be "good." Otherwise there would be no action ever committed that is "wrongful".<br /><br />All this time I wanted to ask him wtf he thinks atheism is. He doesn't seems to believe in anything more than a "higher power" if even that.<br /><br />Poor guy is so confused...shepnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-362590194397112658.post-54591350781725457262010-09-19T13:24:17.000-04:002010-09-19T13:24:17.000-04:00an mp4 of this would have been nice.an mp4 of this would have been nice.Your name (required)noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-362590194397112658.post-12945149671282797922010-09-19T12:34:48.000-04:002010-09-19T12:34:48.000-04:00I agree with the woman in the audience that burste...I agree with the woman in the audience that bursted into laughing at the startAnoniempjenoreply@blogger.com
