The Best Ever Arguments Against Religion | 1 Hour Compilation ]

Would Neil de Grasse Tyson apply any of this formidable CRITICAL THINKING and LOGIC skills to the CAPITALISM, AMERICAN IMPERIALISM and ISRAELI ZIONISM for which he and his New Atheist Cult celebs are the perfect shills ? Imagine this obnoxious roadshow New Atheism " God Hating " the highest form of rationality in " OUR democracy " ! Also, I hope his New Atheism morals instructs Neil to be a gentleman around women. The same for Mr. Kraus ( " A Universe from Nothing " ) and the late great science writer Isaac Asimov ( whose son was identified as the King of Child Pornography in California ( ? ) ) . Ex Trotskyist Christopher Hitchens died a warmongering, Islamophobic drunk . Nope, nothing wrong here ! Clearly militant atheism is not the path to personal sanity and to a saner world . NOTE : Read now [David Asimov, son of the late science fiction writer Isaac Asimov, was arraigned in Sonoma County (Calif.) Municipal Court on Monday and charged with felony exploitation of a child and related child pornography charges. Asimov, 46, was arrested on Thursday, after members of the Santa Rosa Police Department seized more than 4,000 computer disks and videotapes from his Bennett Ridge home. "There were thousands of disks, thousands of videos," said Sonoma County Deputy District Attorney Gary Medvigy, who is handling the case. "Anything imaginable regarding sex between human beings and human beings, or human beings and animals, was there. Whatever your imagination can conjure up, he had it." ]

[ "Trump is desperate as Iran war spirals out of control " ]

The Neo-Nazi ZIONIST Jew regime in Washington , DC of Donald Trump and Stephen Miller and special guest star Benjamin Netanyahu -and THEIR docile mainstream news media -will never rally this mostly CHRISTIAN nation [ 200 MILLION + ] not Christian Nationalist , Christian Zionist , for ' Jew War III " in the Middle East extended to a NATO rescue mission for the warmonger embezzler V . Zelensky in " Greater Israel " Ukraine. The war against Iran , the people of Iran , the Islamic culture of Iran now defines the Trump presidency . And it is already a QUAGMIRE WAR as was the Vietnam War of the " Tumultuous Sixties " which ended in defeat for US imperialism and Saigon being renamed Ho Chi Minh City . And wisdom from the " Tumultuous Sixties " : " What if THEY start a war and nobody shows up ? " .

  But  do a GOOGLE SEARCH for  " Radical Ron's Blog Spot " . Steve.  READ  [ " There is no widely recognized or official public blogspot or active website titled " Radical Ron's Blogspot " . The phrase may refer to a nickname like that of former professional motocross racer Ron " Radical Ron " Turner , but he does not have a dedicated blog by that name.

[ ‘COMPLETE DISARMAMENT’: Trump says Board of Peace reached HISTORIC agreement ] Who will liberate " OUR democracy " from the Neo-Nazi ZIONIST Jew regime in Washington , DC ?

The Neo-Nazi ZIONIST Jew regime in Washington , DC and their docile ( but WOKE WARRIOR Democratic Party leaning ) mainstream news media will never rally the American people for " Jew War III " in the Middle East extended to a NATO rescue mission for the warmonger embezzler V. Zelensky in " Greater Israel " Ukraine. Most CHRISTIAN Americans ( some 200+ MILLION ) are not Christian Nationalists or Christian Zionist foaming at the mouth for APOCALYPSE NOW . Wisdom from the Tumultuous Sixties : " What if THEY start a war and nobody shows up ? " . Most of the decent CHRISTIAN people of the world are cheering for Iran , for the people of Iran , for the Islamic culture of Iran not for a " victorious " American imperialism and Israeli Zionism, not for bully , buffoon , bluffer American president Donald Trump and his senior partner in crimes against humanity , the world proclaimed war criminal , leader of APARTHEID Israel ,Benjamin Netanyahu. Together they have made the USA and APARTHEID Israel the most hated countries on the planet . How does that assure " NEVER AGAIN ! " ? NOTE :( Less than one percent of the American population are fanatical ZIONIST Jews ). @davidfrench507 5 hours ago Just free the Iranian people from these bastards. Perhaps these hypocritically designated" Axis of Evil" countries can liberate " OUR democracy " from the Neo-Nazi ZIONIST Jew regime in Washington , DC. ? Do not count on Election Day 2026 or Election Day 2028 .

[ "The God-Debate Every Believer Should Watch (Neil deGrasse Tyson vs Stephen Colbert) "] Nothing " poetic " about THE SCIENTIST as lackey for the capitalist ruling class !

How ludicrous these celebrity ATHEIST scientists, idolized by the New Atheism Cult New Hate group, who devote what is left of a mediocre career [ Neil deGrasse Tyson is famous for WRONGLY demoting the planet Pluto from the Sun's family , Richard Dawkins is stuck in his " Selfish Gene " time warp ] compulsively lecturing ( and for a greedy FEE ! ) the public on the non-existence of God , the foolishness of religion in general, and how stupid are people who go to Church on Sunday , with much venom directed at the Roman Catholic Church . Do the New Atheist New Hate group groupies , and their capitalist Culture of Narcissism, celebrity atheist scientists, ever apply critical thinking skills , apply their deified and often sophomoric LOGIC & REASON to the irrational and evil social system that employs them , to capitalism , American imperialism , and Israeli Zionism ? We shall see " The End of Science " before " The End of Faith . Nothing " poetic " about THE SCIENTIST as lackey for the capitalist ruling class !

Hi Ron,

I was browsing through a favorite art book and happened across this stunning sculpture of an Iranian (Persian) man created 3000 years ago!

The caption is timely as it describes the essence of the Iranian people which we’re witnessing today. 

“Here is an unknown man, centuries remote from us, yet he still confronts us with imperishable dignity, and assures us of the indestructibility of the human spirit.”

Talk soon,

—Steve

Ron, that is so interesting. Where did you ever dig up that wonderful "relic" of a child (our brother) who had every reason to believe in the promise of "The Space Age"?

Rick grew up and took to the air– getting his private pilot's license before his driver's license! He lived to see satellites launched... Men go to the moon... the Space Shuttles... the Voyager... The International Space Station... the Hubble Telescope... He was an innocent early "boomer" who had the advantage of "perceived" social clarity! 

He was lucky not to live in this age of technological tyranny... of global greed. The end of a romantic "Space Age". 

Talk soon,
