        @Corkin02 @neiltyson Religious people are already pissed off. They don't have the guts to accept reality & believe the lies of god.

        @Corkin02 @StingrayTom3000 With people like Karen Miller (TN) & Kim Davis in KY, why should their religion be tolerated?

        @StingrayTom3000 Like most religious people, @Corkin02 can't handle opposing views so he blocks. Closed minded religion at it's best.

        @jjpott @StingrayTom3000 @Corkin02 Just blocked me too. Hysterical. Another bampot unprepared to have a sensible, respectful debate.

        @StingrayTom3000 @locdog573 @neiltyson God gave us free will, so man chooses, good, bad,or nothing until something bad happens in life.

        @tigrrr63 @StingrayTom3000 @locdog573 @neiltyson free will isn't given by a God. No need for a God in that concept
