I feel dumber for having listened to D'Souza. Deafer too; could he stop yelling for five seconds?

edit: Oh man, he just invoked Occam's razor for the existence of god. Someone get this man a clue.
edit 2: Upvoting for self-destruction of Christianity.

D'Souza, LOL

heh. was the first thing i noticed.
keep watchin'. gets better.
i'm playlisting them all now, and updating this embed.

D'Souza spends the entire debate shouting, quickly, while gesticulating, switching hands on the mike, shifting his weight, constantly in motion.
and i don't think most of you need me to explain why. dannyboy sure doesn't, nor does he bother to point it out.

this is Dennett giving somber testimony, and D'Souza trying to sell a used car.

i literally cannot watch this. dennett is, as per usual, tremendous, but d'doucheface is too painful and illogical to listen to.

wow, i hate this denish guy, what a mindlessly aggressive idiot.
check out the youtube comments on these vids, the majority believe denish 'pwned' dennett...
also, the Q&A at the end is pretty interesting (for anyone who feels they can't bare listening to denish's rant)

He used Occams' Razor so awfully gahd! my head hurts! >_<
