"No True Atheist" The Thunderbird Of Pop Atheist Whines


Hey, I didn't make up that list of atheists associated with Jeffrey Epstein, he and they chose to associate themselves together, I'm just noting that Epstein seemed to enjoy their company and they his, not to mention that money and the flights on the infamous Epstein jet.  I'm no more responsible for that than Trump and Clinton and Stephanopolis, Starr,  Acosta, etc. etc. etc. for forming other such lists.    Now one of the most interesting things is which of those associates are now lying about the nature and extent of their association, as mentioned at Slate, that's something a lot of them also have in common, lying.  

I could also make a list of people who figure "no true atheist would do what these atheists are documented as doing."   It's the same list who are the first to pull that bullshit "no true Scotsman" line that one of Epstein's good buddy atheists popularized among atheists.  

And here's another:
 
At least two grant recipients in academia are standing by Epstein, saying he remains a friend: Krauss and Robert Trivers, a Rutgers University biologist. Trivers said Epstein is a person of integrity who should be given credit for serving time in prison and for settling civil lawsuits brought by women who said they were abused.

“Did he get an easy deal? Did he buy himself a light sentence? Well, yes, probably, compared to what you or I would get, but he did get locked up,” Trivers said. He said he got about $40,000 from Epstein to study the relationship between knee symmetry and sprinting ability. 

Trivers also said he believes girls mature earlier than in the past. “By the time they’re 14 or 15, they’re like grown women were 60 years ago, so I don’t see these acts as so heinous,” he said.

  1. A new variation on the "She looked 16!" defense. Except the charge is not statutory rape (alone) but human trafficking. On that there is no "age of consent."

    Sometimes I think the world is just run by weasels.

    1. If it were a Catholic priest who was credibly accused and the child being raped and trafficked was a boy, not one of these guys would have any problem seeing it for what it was. Though, infamously, Gore Vidal was OK with it even when it was priests who were accused, he claimed it was the boys fault, not much different from what this biologist said.
