Hi Derek,
Just read this, and it’s nice to see that someone else loathes this horrible little man as much as myself. His Acorah rant clearly showed a man who was both defensive and offensive with his opinions, something that to me clearly demonstrates an individual who is deeply unsure of their own beliefs. I cannot believe this man gets any respect whatsoever, or that his pathetic rhetoric holds any ground, but unfortunately, to many, it does. Kudos on the smoking blog, too, I now realise that sensible people DO exist on the internet, they’re just a bit thin on the ground.

Hi Derek,
I only recently watched Louie’s interview. I wasn’t impressed with his tirade in the least, the same way I am not impressed by anyone who feels the need to completely exaggerate their opinions when they know they have an audience. Around here, we call that “Little Man Syndrome”. A person’s belief is not necessarily a fact. Any rational person knows this. It’s really hard to suffer a person who thinks that because they speak the loudest, that they win the argument. I hate giving this a lot of attention because, clearly, that was Louie’s objective.

The main reason that prompted me to write was you anyway, not Louie Savva. I only wanted to say that there are sooooo many people on the Internet who like to rant but very few have held my interest until you. It’s very refreshing to find someone who has a legitimate argument, well written and thought through and can actually punctuate above a third grade level. Thank you for not sleeping through high school English!

By the way…I tend to agree with your argument. Well stated.

What are my religious beliefs Debbie?

…Yeah, I didn’t think you’d know.

Well, well… engaged in radical assumption, sweeping generalizations, a complete lack of any semblance of rationality – while projecting an attitude that implies that you hold a monopoly on it, and a shameful lack of understanding of your own belief system… Hmmm… I’ve got it! You must be an atheist! You certainly fit the common bill.

How embarrassing for you.

What an idiot YOU are! I do not like to call myself an atheist…as Sam Harris says, Atheism is not a philosophy; it is not even a view of the world;it is simply an admission of the obvious.In fact”atheism” is a term that shouldnt even exist. No-one ever needs to identify himself as a “non-astrologer” or a “non-alchemist”…Atheism is nothing more than the noises reasonable people make in the presence of unjustified religious beliefs.
Anyway..read his book…along with Dawkins. Thank goodness some people, like Louie, are prepared to speak up. I even like the fact that he doesnt tolerate nonsense…have you ever tried talking to someone who belongs to a religion? Looke at Ted Haggard…he is the scariest man…but this evangelical priest…is in the news for drugs and homosexuality…he confessed, by the way, in case you believe in him too.
Question everything…even your motives for believing,,you owe it to yourself!!

Hi,
Refreshing to meet someone who’s not taken in by Louie’s awful rhetoric. I’m actually an old acquintance of his, who gets a little tired of his rudeness and inability to appreciate anyone else’s point of view.

His crusade against parapsychology is also conducted in a grossly unfair way, given how decent the community was to him. It not his critcism I hate; its his manner and the assumption that the world’s divided into rational people (i.e. him) and irrational (everyone not as extreme as him)

Thanks,

Matt.
