Raw Story – September 8, 2009:

The mother of a Kentucky high school football player is furious over the Christian baptism of her son during what he said was supposed to be a school outing to eat a steak dinner and see a “motivational speaker.”

Instead, Breckinridge County High School football coach Scott Mooney took 20 of his players on a trip to a Baptist revival, where eight or nine of the students underwent the Christian ritual of baptism, according to published reports.

Michelle Ammons, mother of 16-year-old Robert Coffee, said she’s upset that nobody ever asked her consent to take her son to the August 26 religious ceremony. She added that she’s even more upset with the school district superintendent Janet Meeks, who was at the revival and did not object to the coach including his students.

    #40, Dr Dodd, you still haven’t provided any proof. Waiting…

    #40, Dr. Dodd said – “You are looking for a miracle where only simple observation is required.”

    Not a miracle. Just some proof. Still waiting on that.

    So far you’ve provided bad poetry, and have ignored any questions posed to you. OTOH I suppose it might take a miracle to actually get a coherent response from you.

    Please post something other than calling us blind. If you have something real to say, say it. If not, post your apologies.

  3. Dr Dodd says:

    You’ve been given all the information you need. How you choose to use it is up to you.

    No apology required.

    Just for fun – you prove there is not a God.

    “You’ve been given all the information you need. How you choose to use it is up to you.”

    Except that proof. Still waiting on that. Nope, no proof posted yet.

    Oh, and just for fun, you prove there are no unicorns. If I propose that a mythology is in fact true it’s up to me to prove it.

    So, you still don’t have that proof I take it. Very sad. Oh, I know, why not post again that I’m blind or can’t see what’s clear to you, or that I should prove that Zeus doesn’t exist (sorry, not sure what your gods name is, was is Odin?)

    Anything but actually posting proof.

    #Number 6 said “…or that I should prove that Zeus doesn’t exist (sorry, not sure what your gods name is, was is Odin?)”

    I don’t remember the source, but I saw once “We’re all atheists about most gods, I just take it one god further”

  6. #46 says:

    I’ve never understood why the justification of there being a God is that life is far too complicated for it to have just happened. If life is so perfectly planned that it couldn’t have happened on its own, wouldn’t a God who created that life be even more perfect and complex to just exist on its own? How then could he have just appeared? Does that mean God needed a God to create him?

    Read the Aquinian proofs of the existence of God, then get back to us. Nothing is cuter than an atheist who labors under the illusion that he can actually think.
