Do many Christians here admit to reading Bible-bashing websites just for the pure entertainment value of them?
Which websites do you prefer and would recommend to others? (And yes, I personally enjoy skepticsannotatedbible.com — but have you found any that are less cliched and don’t simply repeat the tired old classics?)

And which websites would you recommend for the classic flat-earth-type conspiracy theories, such as "Jesus never existed" or one that was posted as a Yahoo answer just minutes ago: "Most university scholars and historians will claim that Jesus existed just because the global religion industry makes sure that they do." [Anybody who has served on a state-sponsored university faculty in the U.S. or who knows anything about secular academia will enjoy that one. After all, university religion departments are such bastions of fundamentalist piety, after all!]

Which Bible-bashing websites do you consider your favorites, especially as an aid to teaching college students the answers to the more humorous and classic "Bible errors and contradictions" claims that they will be hear again and again? (e.g."bats are not birds’, "grasshoppers don’t have four legs", Pi doesn’t equal 3, "a whale isn’t a fish", "rabbits don’t chew cud")

(I appreciate your recommendations because I found that my students definitely enjoy reading and researching the classic Bible-bashing rants — but even more so the occasional new/novel diatribe. The majority of such sites are just the usual cut-and-paste cluelessness of the under-educated but occasionally one finds something new. And that is what I’m especially looking for to add to my revised syllabus. Plus, as the U.S. becomes less and less linguistically literate (with most universities no longer requiring at least four semesters of foreign language), more of the anti-Bible gripes are simply language-related ignorance — but some of them make for excellent translation studies.)


I love the ones where Christianity is bashed for not teaching sex edu, hence all the abortions by theistic youngsters

I like reading the ones lampooning stupid christian posts, as do my christian friends:

"Evolution says that we started out simple, and over time became more complex. That just isn’t possible: UNLESS there is a giant outside source of energy supplying the Earth with huge amounts of energy. If there were such a source, scientists would certainly know about it." for example.

I guess there are going to be idiots on both sides of the debate, its always good to laugh at idiots regardless of who’s side they are on :D

I know just what you mean. www.pocm.com is my favorite. Every few months or so I send them an email politely correcting them (usually embarrassingly so) on some thing or another. But in their favor, they do begrudgingly change a few things here and there. I figure after a few years I’ll have them converted altogether. LOL

Yes I do. I also like talking to people who are deaf and then accuse me of not wanting to hear what *they* have to say.
