Atheists Launch No Lives Matter Movement

Sounds like someone attempting to lampoon atheism and evolution based on the incorrect assertion that the former is nihilistic and the that latter is random.
I strongly suspect the creators are fully aware of what they're doing. Sites like this rely on other people not realising their articles are satire and spreading the links, getting the site clicks and therefore advertising revenue. I personally consider them all fraudulent on that basis.

Actually, the site is pure humor, as far as I can tell, based on current news and events, (i.e.):


FBI Hires Top-Rated Italian Bodyguard Hiluigi Clintonelli To Protect Ghislaine Maxwell

It's the kind of humor that's so stupid, it's funny.

I'm fully aware of the range of material Babylon Bee (and it's competitors) put out and some of it is indeed very funny. None of that changes anything I said though. It isn't really satire if the audience doesn't know it's satire.

It's true that not everyone is capable of identifying, or even appreciating humor the same. But like an art, people can become more familiar with it, by seeing it more often.

:p Talk about a faux pas, Dr. Tyson! Reminds me of the time I wrote 'Noah' instead of 'Moses'.

Did you know that since 2014 Saudi Arabia has considered all atheists to be terrorists? Yeah. Go Saudi! Go...go...gogogo Saudi!

Man I sure am glad I'm not a terrorist.

He says he isn't, or !or precisely, he is not sure

Don't be sorry, i added some humour to my post

Really?
I haven't read much of his stuff lately, but if that's the case he's substantially changed his tune. Oh well, unimportant, really. I don't much care for the New Atheism thing...

Nah, that's always been his thing.
He has a rating he uses, whereby 1 is a gnostic theist, and 7 is a gnostic atheist.
He rates himself a 6.9, and is therefore an agnostic atheist.

I'd rate myself about a 6 on his scale for comparitive.

Dawkins scale - Hmolpedia

Doesn't sound like his opinion has changed much since he wrote The God Delusion.

It does sound like he considers himself agnostic with opinions
