1) Go back to Africa and help those lazy starving NIGGERS, YOU GOD
DAMNED RACIST, ANTI-CHRISTIAN CHILD KILLING ADVOCATE TRAITOR!
By: John D. Wentzky
Nominated: Al Klein
Seconded: Yang
------------
2) The following verse from the Book of Mormon discusses the existence
of the spirit contradicting Darwinism. Darwinists have a flat earth view
of reality.
By: Aaron Kim
Nominated: Mike
Seconded: Wexford
------------
3) I provided evidence from our source book, the Bible. I expect you to
do the same from your source material. Your own unsupported personal and
private opinions are irrelevant.
By: Pastor Frank
Nominated: Enkidu
Seconded: Al Klein
------------
4) Why do you think Catholics have a need to KNOW the bible oh so well?
Catholics don't use the bible as a crutch or as a weapon. Why do you?
By: Bob
Nominated: Sara Brum
Seconded: Uncle Vic
------------
5) Then I'd say it's better to follow this religion, as following that>
commandment alone would practically guarantee you'd be a much better
person than an atheist would ever be.
By: Gabriel
Nominated: Uncle Vic
Seconded: Liz
------------
6) In response to:
So far as I can remember, there is not one word in the Gospels in
praise of intelligence.
-- Bertrand Russell
That's because the Bible isn't about intelligence.
By: Pastor Frank
Nominated: Enkidu
Seconded: John Baker
------------
7) I'm also like that with every other Religion. I finally realised why
the guys in alt.atheisim (I spelled it with a small a that time) dont
believe in any of the paranormal stuff I do-because they put the same
standards of "show me the evidence" onto everything. Perhaps I should
start a new investigation with that view.
By: Seon Ferguson
Nominated: Michael Gray
Seconded: Richo
------------
8) *****.
You *AR* an idiot.
By: John D. Wentzky"
Nominated: Smiler
Seconded: Yang
------------
9) I like it when a writer is perfectly clear; makes it very easy to
"plonk" him without much thought.
By: Michael
Nominated: Michael Gray
Seconded: Pat Kiewicz
------------
10) I found Mr. Conrad's fossils from the internet. I dig the internet,
not the earth. You just need to find promising evidence and prove your find.
By: Lin Liangtai
Nominated: Panama Floyd
Seconded: Ye Old One
------------
11) Maybe they [NT books] were written that late the fact that we cant
know for sure shows how unreliable scripture is.
By: Seon Ferguson
Nominated: stoney
Seconded: Michael Gray

Here are the rules for the Quote of the Month Contests.
RULES
1. Only atheists and agnostics may participate in the contests.
2. A quote is a valid entry for the contests if:
a. The quote is a brief piece of text
b. The quote has recently been written in alt.atheism (verifiable),
and is original (no quotes by famous authors, for instance)
c. Nomination of the quote is made by an atheist or agnostic
in alt.atheism
d. Nomination of the quote is supported by at least one other
atheist or agnostic in alt.atheism;
e. The quote is not nominated or seconded by the person who wrote it
in the first place (no one is allowed to nominate him- or herself,
but a person can vote for the quote he or she wrote.)
3. There will be two categories: 'Atheist Quote of the Month'
and 'Theist Quote of the Month'. The category for which a
quote must be nominated must be mentioned by the atheist or
agnostic who wants to nominate it.
If a quote is miscategorized (e.g. an atheist quote is mistakenly
nominated in the Theist QOTM category), the quote will be re-directed
to appear in the correct category, with approriate notification.
4. Nominations can be made until five days before the first of the
next month. If quotes are nominated after this period, they will be
considered as entries for the contest of the next month.
* When making a nomination, please use this format for the subject
line:
"aa - <A or T as applicable>QOTM Nomination (was: <original thread
name>)"
5. Each atheist or agnostic who visits alt.atheism has one vote to
cast for each category (two votes total).
6. Voting starts 5 days before the end of the month. During the month,
votes will be ignored. This way, all nominees will have equal chance of
winning.
7. The two winning quotes will be published in the QOTM Archive.
SUMMARY
A nomination must contain the following information:
1. The lines of the quote.
2. Who wrote it.
3. Who nominates or seconds the nomination of this quote (that's you!)
4. Which category this nomination is for.
5. The word "nomination" MUST appear somewhere in the subject line!
6. The original thread title must appear in the subject line.
Publish the nomination or support for a nomination in a designated
thread, preferably called "[T/A]QoTM Nomination for [month]." You can
also e-mail it to me (see below).
VOTING
1. In the last five days of the month you can cast your vote in both
categories.
2. Votes must be placed in the designated thread.

Can't vote for John D. Wentzky.
There is nothing in his post that suggests he has a religion. I were a
theist myself, I would probably fear he was satan himself:)
Boy is he bad!
Can't vote for Aaron Kim either.
He isn't bad like Wentzky, but surely every other theist must think
he's nuts,
Now This #3 is what I would call a "normal theist absurdity"
My winner of this mont is Frank,
who takes the word of any unknown translater over ours
(so we won't have to take the trouble to reply)
3) I provided evidence from our source book, the Bible. I expect you to
do the same from your source material. Your own unsupported personal and

Agree.
That's one of the things about Christianity. They act like

7) I'm also like that with every other Religion. I finally realised why
the guys in alt.atheisim (I spelled it with a small a that time) dont
believe in any of the paranormal stuff I do-because they put the same
