Ricky getting it right.

I prefer to ask for proof that I'm not god and then proceed to declare that I'm god.

Prove I can't fly? I would be afraid someone would throw me off a roof.

The burden of proof isn't on us. End thread. Checkmate life!

No, they'd push you off a cliff.

Please, more Ricky Gervais quotes.

I think the thing here is that they don't believe that they 'came up with' Christianity. Many of them think that we're all born agreeing with them and then move away from god later in life. So as far as they're concerned, we're the ones who came up with the funny idea.

Burden of proof arguments are weak. We all wake up in the morning and go to work/school, atheists and theists alike; we all believe our lives have some value. Religious folk have a clear, if childish, metaphysical basis for what they do. What about us atheists?

I like Ricky Gervais as much as the next guy, but this is a point that Sam Harris (or insert any atheist, ever) has pointed out no less than ten times.

What really grinds my gears is when people think that the evidence of the universe indicates that there is a god, and so they refuse to accept that the burden of proof is on them. Since they think the evidence is on their side, they question me as to why I am ignoring the evidence.

Sadly there is a way of proving it, which is throwing him out from top of a building. I really wish I can do this to the fundis from every religion, and pitch one liner from a cheap B rated movie like, "Who's gonna save you now?" But never the less, I understand this method is the other side of extreme as well, and it didn't work out during the cold war era... so... put down your pitchforks and torches please.

I think Ricky Gervais is great, but I find him one of the most fucking obnoxious of the well-known atheists.

His heart is in the right place but, whether or not he thinks his thoughts and conclusions are original, they aren't. And there are other people who have said what he says far better, with far greater eloquence, dignity and character.

He just seems a bit boorish and heavy-handed when it comes to atheism. And there are cleverer people, people whose lives are spent on the subject, to whom we should be paying this attention.

I've said it before, I'll say it again... Ricky Gervais is my favorite atheist.

He has gotten it right twenty times before with this pic.

I love Ricky Gervais, but despise the image quote trend on this subreddit. Downvote.
