“Christian subway ads exist and New Yorkers couldn’t care less, just like we don’t care about Dr. Zizmor’s potions or ZONI’s English lessons.” So how come we can’t apply the don’t care attitude to what Hannity says?

Ya gotta remember that SH isn’t talking to NuYawkers who actually ride the subway. He’s peppering the many easily-delude-able people, who watch him uncritically, who have probably never been in a subway anywhere, with outright lies. Out of their ignorance, those folk will swallow ‘most any swill poured out. SH’s cynical fomenting of “outrage” ranks right up there with “death panels” and “birthers” to whip up the emotions of the fact-free stunted beliefs of the ditto-heads. But facts about pro-Christian ads, as represented and described here, don’t cease to exist because they’re ignored.

electronic cigarette represents the entire problem in a microcosm. Obvious bigots like Hannity, anyone who isn’t already a bigot themselves will see right through it. But EC’s argument is superficially compelling — until you actually pay attention to what is going on here.

If atheists ask for equality, they are accused of hypocrisy, of asking for “special rights”. This is a time-tested technique of oppression, isn’t it?

Besides, electronic cigarette: agnostics are always saying how “nobody really knows” and that one ought not to share their opinion with anyone else — but isn’t that what YOU did just now? Act like you know (that we don’t know) and push your opinion on us???

Anyway, “nobody really knows” shows that you don’t even understand what atheism is. Atheism IS the belief that nobody really knows. We just don’t say that everything is a coin flip. Nobody knows, but we can assign probabilities…

The whole point to the article is that Christians have been advertising on the trains and nobody gave a stuff – Hannity is claiming a double standard which doesn’t actually exist.

In other words – the “atheists” you are trying to paint as objecting so mightily to Christians trying to convert people have been putting up with it for years on the subway without much comment.

Maybe if you were more concerned with the truth than masturbating about how reasonable an agnostic you are, you might have noticed that in the post.
