Six reasons why I think Stephen Fry is Absolutely Fabulous [View all]
Actually, I don't have six, and they're not neccessarily about Stephen Frye. This is really a response, in a way, to Fr Brendan Purcell and his totally worthless response. Worthless because hardly any one is listening. The age of print is dying. It's all about social media to the new generation.
Stephen Frye goes on a rant and it's posted on youtube. It gets millions of hits and is talked about all over the net. Fr Brendan Purcell writes a response for The Irish Catholic and yawns pursue. Winner: Stephen Frye. Loser: God. It's been commented before how the new age of communication has freed the semination of ideas previously oppressed by the powers that be. That's why certain theocratic countries are having fits about the internet.
Atheism is the big winner in all this. If not just atheism, but freedom of thought. The old "Believe what I say" dogma is being questioned. God is found wanting. Reality is found to be fascinating beyond belief, and God no longer fits. At least not in the way the old Holy Books describe him. The future looks good.
