Yeah I never liked Sam or Dawkins (aside from his actual Biology work, which is fantastic). To me proving or disproving the existence of god is a waste of time, and Harris’s critiques of religion boiled down to a lot of strawmanning. “Hey, this group of adherents to your religion is crazy. Therefore, your entire religion is crazy and should go away.”

Organized atheism is a religion, and a ridiculous one. It's like starting a "non plumber's union" or a "non-athlete club"

Boy we sure aren't plumbers! We never work on drains, toilets, or water pumps! Look at us not be plumbers! Stupid plumbers!

Like you Reed, I used to really like Sam Harris. I was a young atheist and he seemed rational and had a very calm way of speaking. I was blue pilled and ironically corporate media attacks against Sam Harris is what gave me the red pill. Sam Harris' descent into TDS was something to witness, dude is completely deranged at this point. I'm happy to see the mask coming off for a lot of these "liberals" whatever that even means today. I miss you on twitter, you were hilarious, I will be following you despite however many platforms ban you. You introduced me to Ryan Dawson and he is a fantastic source of information.
