Atheist Delusion
In 2016, Ray Comfort's "The Atheist Delusion" won the award for "Best Science Film" at the International Christian Film Festival.[1]
References
Dawkins non-debate in the Debates section
Sorry but it seems notable that Dawkins, who debates frequently around the world, refused to debate Comfort despite a very large monetary incentive"
Actually, no. His standard response to creationists who want to debate him is "That would look very good on your CV. Not so good on mine." Generally, debates between scientists and anti-science loons are not a good way of show who is right, because of Gish gallops among other things. It is completely unsurprising that Dawkins will not debate Banana guy. That Comfort is willing to pay big just shows how desperately he wants recognition. --Hob Gadling (talk) 11:16, 14 December 2020 (UTC)
- Can somebody please explain how a non-debate is a debate? Comfort wanted a Dawkins debate on his CV, but he can't have that, so he needs to have "not having debated Dawkins" on his CV instead, as the next-best thing? --Hob Gadling (talk) 07:14, 16 December 2020 (UTC)
"...and preaches in Huntington Beach, California."
The wording "...and preaches in Huntington Beach, California" is unclear. It could refer to him preaching in a church. Actually, according to his face book page, "If you're ever in Huntington Beach, CA we preach every Saturday, Lord willing, at the base of the pier from 1:30-3:30pm." Alas, I could not find a reliable source that discusses this, but there are a boatload of videos on youtube showing him doing it. --Guy Macon (talk) 18:30, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
- I just looked at some more unreliable sources and found a lot of them talk about Comfort criticizing Westboro Baptist Church. One example:[1] Does anyone know of any reliable sources that cover this? --Guy Macon (talk) 18:51, 18 December 2020 (UTC)
Banana
The thing about the banana is blatantly false and clearly biased. It was his parody of atheism...he didn’t “learn” anything about bananas. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 67.7.47.136 (talk) 16:43, 30 December 2020 (UTC)
- Got any reliable sources saying that? Poe's Law is relevant here. --Hob Gadling (talk) 10:00, 2 January 2021 (UTC)
