Why I haven’t posted about “Vox Day” in ages November 21, 2008

…because it’s just too damn easy. Take for example, his most recent post as of this writing. It’s great, starting with a link to WingNutDaily, advocating violence against Richard Dawkins, and shilling his own book–all in two paragraphs:
I’m not surprised that someone should shoot himself after reading The God Delusion. The thought of suicide has to cross any intelligent individual’s mind upon reading it and realizing that there are literally hundreds of thousands of dim-witted individuals eligible to vote who genuinely believe TGD to be a masterpiece of science, philosophy, and reason rather than the insubstantial bit of intellectually fatuous, snipe-and-dodge evangelical atheism it actually is. Such a waste. It’s tragic to think that after reaching the correct logical conclusion to Dawkinsian moral logic, the unfortunate young man didn’t see fit to shoot the pretentious Archbishop of High Church Atheism first. . . .
Now, obviously the young man wasn’t particularly intelligent or he wouldn’t have found Dawkins’s shoddy logic and nonexistent scholarship to be the least bit convincing. But the possibility of this sort of thing happening is one of the reasons I wrote The Irrational Atheist – readers may recall my assertion that sociopathy and suicide are among the logical consequences of rational atheism – and arranged for free electronic copies of it to be made available to anyone who might like to peruse it. In fact, Dawkins and company really should embrace TIA; its exposure of their fallacious arguments just might save their lives from one of their pathetic young converts one day.
Isn’t that sweet? His post is just a pathetic little lament that no one takes him seriously. Why won’t Richard Dawkins respond to my Very Important Self-published Totally Legitimate Free Online Book? it practically screams.
Poor Vox: he tries so hard to be relevant, but even Ann Coulter-style ravings, desperate attempts to get links from PZ Myers and threats of violence don’t make anyone care what he has to say. I might feel bad for him if he didn’t deserve every bit of his pathetic obscurity. He can’t even manage to be Jonah Goldberg.
Vox shouldn’t worry to much, though: he’ll always have FtK.
[Update: I should have realized Vox found a publisher for the book he's giving away free. On Amazon, you can by his book together with Liberal Fascism. It's like Christmas for intellectually dishonest, lazy hack writers!
Also, from Vox's publisher, this screen shot:
After that hillarious last line, I now don’t need any Christmas gifts: what more could I possibly need?

HAPPY HOLIDAYS, BENDER!
or should I say, Merry Xmas?
Happily Holidays, Merry Xmas, it’s all good!
And may we all avoid the perils of Robot Santa!
Your mistletoe is no match for my TOW missile!

Ha ha ha.
Even my sister, who is pretty conservative and Christian, says that Vox is an embarassment to the religion.
Vox day is satire, right. He can’t really the drivel he writes. Please tell me it’s a joke.
