The Church of Critical Thinking

[nocaffeine]

My uncle claims this site would "prove evolution is a lie" and scientists are lying or holding back information which proves that the Christian god exists. I'd be curious to know your thoughts on what this site and if you could last more than ten minutes without wanting to pull your hair out from the spastic font coloring and mindless pseudo-science drivel.

To me, that site proves that some people are smoking or drinking some very strange and probably ilegal substances way too often. Why is it that bleevers can never elicit their pet central thesis in clear, plain language?

Yea, that site is interesting, from a psychological perspective to wonder what weirdo did it and whether he's been clinically diagnosed with how many mental disorders.

After going through several pages, it becomes obvious the site is loaded with tons of logical fallacies and naked assertions. For example:

We have countless statues, paintings, petrographs, petroglyphs, magnificent temples and monuments from antiquity still standing to this day paying homage to all these "mythical" Gods and Goddess's. I've personally traveled the globe and have seen many up front and personal. I've taught myself three ancient languages leaving little room error.

Sorry my Christian brudders and sistas, but Science rules firm on this one. Ample non contested evidence confirms that these Gods and Goddess's were real, living and walking among us just as all ancient cultures claim. The bloodlines still exsist. Take a trip to Greece and check out perhaps the Pantheon on Acropolis. Quite a feat for that era - built for mythical Gods that didn't exsist? Are you sure?

If you played a drinking game where every time a naked assertion (claim with no proof) or a cause-effect fallacy (claim attributed to a specific cause that is not proven) you'd be drunk after two paragraphs and probably dead of alcohol poison after half a page.

Look at the paragraph above.. the amount of logical fallacies are astounding: Argument from (anonymous) authority: the writer claims to be an expert and "leaving little room for error" in his interpretation, but he doesn't even list his name or qualifications. He claims evidence is non-contested, but not only does he not cite the evidence, he doesn't cite anything at all, just vague references to "evidence" and we are supposed to take him at his word? The Pantheon is proof gods exist? How so? Seriously, this guy is living deep, deep in his own little world.

Yea, this guy is definitely out there:

FYI for FAQ regarding Grey Aliens

-- I've had a few "close personal" peeps inquire about the Grey ETs, now famous and thriving in the pseudo-hip pop culture that is the n4mayShun age. Um, yeah, they exsist, pretty much as dipicted. Yeah, they do perform bag tag and release operations including some unpleasant (so I've heard) hiney probing type medical testing.

They're basically biological robot type "worker bee's" that connect directly with a host via telekinetic wave structure. Kind of like, an Internet of thoughts... (All Humans, if we don't self-destruct, will be able to do this someday)... One often hears about Greys being indifferent, uncaring, benevolent. This is true because they're basically the epitome of Biological/Artificial Intelligence. They don't eat, sleep or have radical grey alien sex orgies. (one nevers hears about grey alien genitals, does one)

I always figured the Church Of Critical Thinking was a site similar to the Church of the Subgenius.(praise Bob)

Parody and then some.
