Possibly of some interest. Trigger warning: very frank sex talk.

He gets creepier and creepier.

Can you imagine the Warrior heads that would be exploding if Shermer wrote these exact same words?

Wasn't Richard Carrier that guy who dumped his wife so he could become a PUA ?

There is a chance that this tells us more about you than them.

Carrier has gone so off the rails it seems like it's all just a massive troll job. I don't think it is, but it's just so bizarre.
How clueless does Dick have to be to post such graphic sexual content in the blog by FTB's resident octogenarian purist Ophelia Benson?

Aye

I've deduced what's meant by the term "intellectual artillery" and identified some likely targets.

I don't mind frank talk about sex, but probably B&W isn't a good place for it.

Spunkmaster Richard Carrier issues an apology for being too detailed and explicit while talking about what amounts to using women as toilets.

It appears to be all about treating women as toilets (very literally) and hating and mocking them at the same time. It’s hard to see how that can help poisoning men’s attitudes to women…and the stuff is ubiquitous. Not a happy thought.

Sounds like the Warriors are turning on each other.

It's comical how Ophie admits to critiquing something she's never seen. Apparently the irony is lost on her.

This is revolting and defamatory behavior.

Oh man, Ive so been waiting for this **** to come up - I was thinking theyd at least wait until Randi was dead.

But what if it's true? Wouldn't that make it justified and righteous? Why you do you assume a priori that Randi is telling the truth and his accusers are lying?

 

[d4m10n]

What accusers? I've not seen anyone named.

You may want to read the link in d4m10n's post, where one "Richard Carrier" is quoted.

 

[d4m10n]

We may safely assume that Carrier's insinuations of pedophilia are false because he was not an eyewitness nor does he cite any eyewitness accounts. Instead, he passes on baseless rumors, much like the authors of the gospels and those who spread them throughout the Greco-Roman world.

Damn it, where's Michael with my popcorn?

And yet you've chosen to spread it further...

We may safely assume nothing. Carrier may be protecting the eyewitnesses, who know their claims are true, but cannot prove them, and naturally wish to protect their identities against the inevitable backlash from haters who don't understand why it's so important to tell the truth in the form of insinuations and baseless rumors.

The hypothetical eyewitnesses which you just made up? Are they hiding in Carl Sagan's garage?

Are you seriously going to argue that it is important to tell the truth in the form of insinuations and baseless rumors? If so, what is your argument?

As I said, use your own judgment.

"Just asking questions". Carrier's a real piece of ****.

I think Prestige was being sarcastic.
