don't know how much to shake people's cages yet.

I like some of the videos from this atheist guy in NJ, and thought this was a good one to share with you folks here.

I don't do or watch "House", don't have a real TV set, just a black box in the corner that plays what my computer or video device tells it to play.

first God made you an atheist or let you choose to be that to be a burden/test for the people who believe. Their trying to 'save' you is them exercising their free will to be kind and loving as their god taught them OR performing their role as God intended it to be as in convincing you that you are wrong and God is real plus he loves you and stuff.

Nice and neat circular logic.
