I thought it was pretty funny- considering most of the people here aren't atheists anyway. As for Vitz's arguments- they are the desperate attempts of a religious man to come to grips with an idea he cannot fathom. When you cannot really deal with an idea- you can change the meaning of things to make it go away.

I know WHO I would want to spend eternity with, if I had the chance to spend eternity with anyone (a chance that does not seem very likely to me, as the idea of anything residing in an eternal form with a personality seems a bit ridiculous)- and atheists and agnostics are the best company and the nicest people. Can you imagine being stuck with uncongenial fundamentalists for all eternity? Why they would make anywhere they were Hell, even for themselves. They do not seem to be happy people. Must be all that worrying about other people's business.

Vitz really has a hang-up about fathers! I suppose that is why he keeps converting back and forth! Here he gets on his bible and gives more scriptual proof that God is a male!

The psychological significance of the fatherhood
of God helps to maintain
the complementary understanding of the sexes.


So more of Vitz's scientific work from catholic.net
