Q: Why do you hate faith?
A: Why do you hate reality?
Q: What do you think of Buddhists/Hindus/Sikhs/Jedi etc.?
A: I have no problem with any of them, as last time I checked they weren't trying to take over the world.
Q: Do you use a teleprompter or read from a script?
A: No. I know what I’m going to say. I don’t need to read it.
Q: Why don’t you answer comments to your videos?
A: I get an avalanche of e-mails every day and I reply to as many of those as I can. If I started replying to comments as well I’d have no time for anything else.
Q: You don’t know what it means to have faith.
A: I don’t know what it means to you, and I don’t want to know. That’s kind of the point.
Q: You don’t understand Christianity/Islam.
A: I don’t understand smallpox or typhoid either, and I’m equally disinclined to get acquainted with them.
Q: Why shouldn’t I be allowed to raise my kids religious if I want to?
A: The same reason you shouldn’t be allowed to beat them with a knotted rope.
Q: By antagonising religious people, aren’t you making it less likely they’ll agree with you?
A: I don’t want them to agree with me. I want them to shut up and maybe see a doctor.
Q: How do you respond to atheists who say you're too crude and simplistic?
A: They're probably right, as usual.
Q: Are you academically qualified?
A: No. I left school at sixteen. My first job was washing dishes in the revolving restaurant on top of the Post Office tower in London for five shillings an hour.
Q: Why do you attack Christianity when Islam is a bigger threat?
A: Because our indulgence of Christianity has encouraged Islam to claim equal status and threaten our freedom.
Q: Why is multiculturalism a racist ideology?
A: Because it discriminates on the basis of ethnic origin, encouraging immigrant cultures to tread on the values of the indigenous majority, while calling any reciprocation racist or Islamophobic.
Q: Do you support the BNP?
A: No. I don't support any form of racism.
Q: How do you vote in elections?
A: In the past I've always voted for the fattest candidate on the basis that they'll take up more room on the House of Commons benches thereby giving me more democracy for my valuable franchise, but now that Britain is being turned into a vassal state of a federal Europe I'll be voting UKIP.
Q: Why aren’t you a YouTube partner?
A: Because I don’t want ads on my videos. I don’t want people to think I’m trying to sell them something.
Q: You sell T-shirts and other merchandise.
A: Many people asked for them, just as they asked for the book of transcripts, the audio podcast and the subtitles. They didn’t ask for intrusive ads to be plastered over every video.
Q: I live in the American Bible Belt, and I’m afraid of social repercussions if I tell people I’m an atheist.
A: Well, I guess you’ll have to spend the rest of your life living a lie. Good luck with that.
Q: No, seriously. People would treat me like some kind of leper.
A: Take it as a compliment.
Q: My friends would disown me. My family business would suffer.
A: OK, you win.
Q: I’d lose my job.
A: All right, we get it.
Q: Can I book you as a guest on my radio/TV show?
A: Thanks, but I’ve got better things to do than explain myself over and over again. You can read interviews here and
here where I’ve tried to summarise what I’m about. If there’s anything to add I’ll let you know.
Q: Which books would you recommend?
A: All my favourite books are listed here
Q: Prove God doesn’t exist.
A: That’s a tough one. Show me how it’s done by proving Zeus and Apollo don’t exist, and I’ll use your method.
