First day back to school.

[Cuddlefish]

And, my first order of business: start trolling my Philosophy of Religion class.

Ask me anything!

[LMNO]

Does God?

[Nephew Twiddleton]

What is the Philosophy of Religion?

[Cuddlefish]

Does God?

Does not God?

See how that works?

[Cuddlefish]

What is the Philosophy of Religion?

Read my above post. Repeatedly. There you go.

[Richter]

Is God HELLO?
/BGP

[LMNO]

Introduce the "Malevolent God" theory (God exists, but he's an asshole), and firmly stick to that position for the remainder of the course.

[the other anonymous]

What is Religion?

(We said trolling, not "have enlightening conversations" right?)

[NWC]

Precise trolling requires knowledge of the prereqs.

For instance, will people in your class have read Descartes, Spinoza, Thomas of Aquinas, St. Augustine, ect. already?

[Requia ☣]

Pick an ancient christian heresy and stick to it (the demiurgical and dualistic ones can be combined with the malevolent god approach).

AUGUSTINE OF HIPPO FTW.

[Prince Glittersnatch III]

Claim objective morality exists.

Argue that patriotism and religion are indistinguishable, then claim atheism.

The first person who asks you if you're a terrorist: give them a cookie.

Yeah, if you want a free trip to an allied country with questionable human rights records. Not that you'll get a good look at the scenery.
