I LOL’d IRL. The cat was alarmed.

I would be slightly offended at the notion of us having preachers and a trinity, but it seems pretty clear who his targets are here. I don’t even know who that “father figure” guy is he was talking about, but the context is telling.
It’d take some sort of hypocrite who claimed to believe in free speech but didn’t mean it to vehemently go after this kind of video. But then, I only say that because I have a sneaking suspicion what some comments on it will be like…

I must say that the ‘Learn to pray so God hears you’ advert would possibly be more effective on a different site to this one.

Brilliant.
“I’m not suggesting that Pat Condell or Thunderfoot are likely to hole up in a compound with their most ardent disciples and instigate some kind of mass death effect….”

Stuff like that is why somegreybloke is the ONLY Youtube channel I’m subscribed to (well, except for the guitar and ukelele stuff…)
Watching some smug blowhard pontificate at his laptop camera for 10 minutes is not my idea of time well spent…

Christ, I bet this guy (That Grey Bloke) must find it infuriating to deal with fans. This is his first video I’ve seen and already I can see myself anxiously awaiting an awkward silence after a sentence that didn’t quiet finish.

Neither Thunderfoot nor The Amazing Atheist are English. They’re both American. However Condell is English.

Atheism is a minority faith position.
Apparently.

No. It’s “These three YouTube Atheists are bloviating jerks with fans who worship them uncritically, and The Amazing Atheist is especially obnoxious.” Hardly a canard.

The Father incomprehensible, the Son inconprehensible and the Holy Ghost incomprehensible, indeed.
