YouTube personality "Professor Plink" gets triggered by Christian fundamentalist on X. Sure, the Xian (pun intended) is quite impossible, but Plink comes across as a stereotypical "angry atheist", which at least I thought was kinda funny when I watched it early in the morning with Red Bull Summer Edition caffeine flowin´ in mah veins.
But OK, maybe Plinko has good reasons for his anger, but he really should try to be more "chill"...
I´m probably a Dinosaur Panentheist (according to the Xian´s typology), but that´s me!
On second thoughts, the account of "From Darwin to Jesus" on X looks fake or fake-ish, so perhaps Plink and other angry ateistas do have reasons to be upset. "From Darwin to Jesus" claims to be an ex-atheist, but I find that hard to believe, since he seems shocked by on-line atheists and refuses to even debate with them, suggesting that he is really a life long member of some fundie subculture. Also, his description of atheists sound like typical fundie stereotypes, suggesting he was never one himself. Finally, he seems to have changed his politics, as well, from liberal/libertarian (?) to hard-core Alt Right, at the same moment that he converted to Christianity. Not impossible, but still questionable. I´m speculating, obviously, and there is always a chance that he is the real deal, but if so, my guess is that he´s fairly unique...
