I have been crazy busy lately, but I can’t put this off any longer. How can I possibly compete with David Smalley of Dogma Debate and Matt Dillahunty of the Atheist Experience? One guy is a publisher with a professional podcast, and the other guy is a leader in the atheist community with his own TV show. I’m just this guy, you know. So what can I do?
OK, so we’re all trying to win this race to raise $5,000.00 for Camp Quest Texas, to give secular kids a fun science exploration summer camp without all the mumbo jumbo of those Jesus camps. We do this every year, and everyone’s always happy. It a great activity to be involved with.
Anyway Dillahunty said that if he wins, he’ll dye his facial hair pink. Eh, big deal. We’ve already seen him in a dress. How much more Matt Dennis Rodman-ahunty do we need to see?
Smalley said if he wins, he’ll get a tattoo the gay equality symbol. He doesn’t have any tattoos, and he thinks that should be significant. If he were to get it as a tramp stamp, that at least would be funny. But otherwise, it’s time he had a tattoo anyway, and what’s wrong with that one?
I have already shaved off one eyebrow and one half of my mustache on the opposite side all for the sake of charity, and my wife found that very disturbing. So I’m not going to do anything like that again. She suggests that if I win, I should make a video where I recite the Lord’s prayer dressed as a nun. As a nod to Cal Worthington, I would also be willing to “eat a bug” in the same video. Over the next few days, I’ll probably throw in a few more stunts too. While I can see those as amusing, and I will do that, let me also offer something that will hopefully be more substantive.
Click the link to donate to my portion of this competition -if you can. If I win, and yours was the highest donation, then I will debate the theist of your choice. It doesn’t matter who that is, and it doesn’t matter who you are either. If you’re the highest donor, then I’ll debate whomever you chose -so long as they’re willing to do it. We’ll schedule a one-hour (maximum) debate on Skype recorded for posterity, with one copy uploaded to my channel -whether I win or lose ;-). We’ll have opening remarks, rebuttals, closing remarks, etc. Provided we can agree on a mutually acceptable moderator, the question being debated will by my opponent’s choice. Who my opponent is will be your choice. So click the link please.
As to the bug, I’d recommend going with a typical feeder cricket – they are easy to get (most pet stores have them), and they don’t taste too bad, they are fairly bland. Mealworms too. Ants taste sorta interesting, but they are small, and can cause some minor problems/discomfort if they bite your tongue in the process…
And yeah, I’m actually speaking from experience. 🙂 besides winning me a few bucks here and there, I’m fairly sure eating an insect or three probably saved me a few fights.
I’m really impressed with your writing skills as well as with the layout on your weblog. Is this a paid theme or did you modify it yourself? Either way keep up the nice quality writing, it is rare to see a nice blog like this one these days..
Fantastic goods from you, man. I’ve understand your stuff previous to and you’re just extremely wonderful. I really like what you have acquired here, really like what you’re stating and the way in which you say it. You make it enjoyable and you still take care of to keep it smart. I cant wait to read much more from you. This is actually a tremendous site.
