Interview with the freethinker

Post by Sanjay »

Here's an interview with Zach

He mostly talks about atheism because it is an interview with an atheist magazine or blog or whatever it is.

It's an interesting read and I thought the subject came across quite well.

Indeed. And it seems I fall into another Jewish stereotype that I didn't even know about.

Also, regarding the exclusive comic..

collect'd! Maybe I'll release the next edition of the the complete Zachives soon.

This happens a lot to You People, I've noticed. It reminds me of a quote by Josef Mengele where he says something like "it was the Germans or the Jews" but I don't quite know why. I think part of it's because I don't know many dumb Jews.

I always find it so uncomfortable to agree completely with someone. I always sit there and think... "nope, not one thing where I can really say 'this is totally wrong'." Particularly the idea about not being atheist or agnostic stood out for me, because it's been one of my beliefs for some time that neither position really adequately describes what I believe, and it's funny because I always got the impression that Zach was like a hard atheist. It's pretty much this interview and the one with Kevin Rutmanis, ex-bassist for the Melvins. Buzzo also had a good one but he says a couple of funny things. Like not watching Seinfeld.

I don't really know how to respond to this post.

It's half-joking, half-serious, half-irrelevant. Don't concern yourself so much with these things.

I think he's referring to his strange post rather than the Zachterview.

Although not an atheist I also find that it weakens their position if they are aggressive about it. For example, Richard Dawkins book, the God Delusion trips over itself and falls in a ditch due to being overly aggressive. Also the man apparently didn't read the Bible before trying to disprove it, which isn't the tactic I would have used.
