Craig should have no qualms about the existence of the tooth fairy. I have seen many, many examples of the work this creature has done. Tooth under pillow one night and the next morning there’s money in it’s place! Over and over again. I’m not talking about a story handed down through oral tradition. I saw the teeth and the money first-hand.

Comment on Believer’s Comments HERE by Jeff Miller http://backyardskeptics.com/believers-comments-here/#comment-104291 Wed, 30 Mar 2016 16:26:43 +0000 http://backyardskeptics.com/#comment-104291 Now I see there is a “contact/comments” link and a “believer’s comments” link. However, a quick scan of both sections looks like everyone posting is a god believer attacking the site. I do not fall into that category. It would be nice if there was a neutral comment section for people who like your site to post comments or suggestions. Keep up the good work. Thank you.

Believers of what? I believe in lots of things but I don’t believe in organized religion. That is why I am here. I thought this was where people who read this website could post comments. Is there a place that people can post general comments?

2/13/16 John Kasich: “We Shouldn’t Try To Fix Climate Change Because That’s The Creator’s Wish”
This is indeed the title of the article but Kasich does not say anything stupid like that in the actual article. I doubt he really said that. I am not familiar with the website it was published on. If you insist on fact based evidence in general then you should have the same standards for items that you quote in your website. If you are not sure about the source then either don’t post it or post a disclaimer. This is my first visit to your website.

Comment on Believer’s Comments HERE by anonymous http://backyardskeptics.com/believers-comments-here/#comment-104288 Sat, 26 Mar 2016 16:55:06 +0000 http://backyardskeptics.com/#comment-104288 Many of these comments and replies are people arguing, accusing, and insulting one another. I think we are forgetting God’s principle goal in creating this world and sending His son. GOD IS LOVE.

God’s love is perfect and is for anyone. God’s love is not arguing and insulting one another but rather building each other up in order to pursue God. God’s love is perfect and when we pursue it we have a shot at that same purity and peace. I understand that many of your beliefs differ but just know that even choosing not to follow Jesus DOES NOT MAKE HIM LOVE YOU ANY LESS OR STOP LOVING YOU.

That in itself is amazing. Someone who loves us so much that when we disobey him or turn our back on him STILL LOVES US just the same. I definitely want that kind of love.

Gods are not male, or female. If any exist, they would be genderless. It is so simple. Not one “holy book” mentions gods creating with their generating organs. Not one. And most gods are single and celibate anyway. It’s all waving arms and thundering pronouncements. Most parents wave their arms and thunder. Even kelp under the ocean can wave. And the results……parents win a few and kelp just dance.
