The revisionists need only to rent Bill Cosby’s “Himself” to get a refresher course on what generation began to eschew anesthesia in childbirth.

I suppose this will be filed under “revisionist” history. This (along with many other examples) should be framed as reclaimed history since history is being reclaimed from the “Enlightenment” revisionists.

LOL.

I have seen numerous atheists use “facts” that are false. Unfortunately, most people never investigate what other people say.

I was once told by an atheist (who was being utterly serious) that ‘Christianity has killed more men than every war and plague mankind has experienced, put together’. It was baffling – he honestly believed that, and seemed stunned and in denial when it was explained what kind of numbers were involved in that claim, using the 20th century alone.

There’s other, more common myths. A tame favorite of mine is when an atheist tells me how horrible and disgusting Dominoes pizza tastes, and how they’d never eat such a thing. The moment I inform them that Tom Monaghan (The founder whose Catholic philanthropy they can’t stand) hasn’t had a controlling interest in the company for years, the pizza suddenly tastes better.
