Based on what Bill says on ML, I would say his view essentially excludes most every religious claim as unworthy of belief, and yet here we are. People have “irrational beliefs,” and they probably always will. Although I enjoy Bill’s show, especially RFM’s contributions, hearing him lecture people o...

Yeah. As someone put it: "Gay pride was not born of a need to celebrate being gay, but our right to exist without persecution. So instead of wondering why there isn’t a straight pride parade, be thankful you don’t need one." About a decade ago, a friend of mine was beaten in a restroom at a downtow...

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=aAl-Qn-nDjg It is a show that must occur, because in his dialogue with apologist Jacob Hansen, Bill was not allowed to tell his side at all, and was constantly interrupted and talked over incessantly which means he didn't develop the materials he planned to.

Snake oil salesman? Coming from a person who finds solace in a man that claimed he could remotely see objects from far away with a stone. A man that was in a courtroom accused of being a disorderly person. A man that redefined morality to be situational especially targeting infidelity. A man that p...

It’s almost as if he’s saying NDEs are subjective experiences which don’t have a strong (if any) link to reality. Dan, you really need some help coming up with basic coherent theses for your books. And yet the witnesses can't be mistaken. Weren't fooled into seeing plates and visions. Joseph's incr...

Coming from a person who finds solace in a man that ...
