Calling Video Professor a Scam
palmerj3 writes in to give some wider attention to a piece on Techcrunch today in which Michael Arrington reacts to Video Professor's desperate attempts to shut him up after he called Video Professor a scam in a piece syndicated by the Washington Post. As described by Arrington, the ways the company's site operates (differently depending on where a visitor comes from) are strongly reminiscent of the practices a Senate committee recently condemned. (Here is a detailed example of another, similar scam, from a not-naive victim. Video Professor's tactics sound even more deceptive.) Video Professor seems to react with belligerence, not to mention legal threats, towards any hint of criticism. Please share any direct experiences you have with this outfit.
Never heard of them here in Sweden. And no, they don't run their commercials in Sweden (not that I watch TV anymore).

They do; they have the right to make bigoted comments about atheists, right back at them.
I reserve the right not to be a bigot. I support even Atheists in free speech and choice of religion or non-religion. But I call one a bigot when they are being a bigot, which is my right as well.
Making bigoted comments about Christians or Atheists is a violation of the civil rights of the USA, and the human rights of the UN, and International Rights as well.

Sure because Christians don't make any sense, right?
Stephen King is a Christian and he makes his living writing books that don't make any sense and are hard to follow, and thus since they are so badly written (as you point out Christians are poor writers who write badly written statements) they don't even make the New York Times bestsellers lists.
But in this case, Stephen King does in fact write good books and statements that make sense and are easy enough to understand that almost all of his books are best sellers.
I support civil and human rights of everyone and every protected group. I added in the line "even Atheists" to show that unlike what you accuse religious people of doing, I support every religion and even Atheist and non-religious people and treat them the same via equal rights. Thus I am not a bigot who treats one group differently from another.
Not all Atheists and non-Religious people agree with you either in your statements. I am glad to have met them who oppose your statements.

Thank you, that was my original point.

Yeah you'd like to think so, but you are wrong.
