If only more people realized this...

I was reading a webcomic the other day, and this one is about the "Atheist Apocalypse." No, it's not what you think. For one thing, the four horsemen are of Science, Progress, Reason and Equality. Contrasts a bit with the religiously inspired horsemen like Death and War doesn't it?

Here is the comic, it's too large to post here.

My rhetorical question of the day is what do people have against this? *sigh*

Makes me think of "all that could have been" and such.  

[Lethkhar]

I think a better question is why Christopher Hitchens is the horseman of equality. That guy's a douchebag who doesn't respect human rights.  

[[-Erik-]]

Against the horsemen or against the comic?

If it's against the horsemen, then all I have to say is that humanity is still too ignorant to understand all these new scientific terms and formulas.

 

[Daffodil the Destroyer]

I love it! Who was the third Horseman? I don't recognize his caricature.

 

[B1g_crunch]

It's true though, it's basically saying that with christianity destruction will be the end, but atheism is the beginning and will save us all.

Richard Dawkins~
heart heart heart


I've fawned over that mans ideals ever since I saw him make an idiot out of a certain FOX "opinionated news" programs host.

 

[MiniSiets]

FYI if anyone's curious, the four horsemen are Richard Dawkins (obviously), Dan Dennett, Sam Harris and Christopher Hitchens.

I totally lol'd at the excessiveness of some of the art. That horse with the writing on it "If then A->B"... omg. rofl

Bill O'Reilly later claimed victory in that "debate" while he was talking to Kirk Cameron.

Dawkins honestly seemed caught off guard by the level of ignorance he was facing.  

[MiniSiets]

Yeah, apparently O'Reilly thinks that he wins when he can get his opponent to answer "I don't know" when in fact that is Dawkins' main selling point.

In all honesty though I don't think Dawkins did a great job during that debate, but it wasn't really because he was wrong about anything; he just isn't equipped to deal with manipulative and dishonest people.

Yup. 3nodding That's why he refuses to debate creationists, much to the dismay of Ray Comfort.

Speaking of which, Thunderf00t owned that guy. He didn't even really debate him; he just explained the basics behind his opinions and let Ray Comfort look like an idiot. Ray Comfort has no idea what he's talking about.

Yes, the banana guy. xd

He wants to debate Charles Dawkins, and has been pressuring him to do it for years now.

I don't know anything about the guy, so I'm just curious; what do you base that opinion on?

BTW, I linked the comic on my Facebook. rofl
