Ray Comfort demonstrates the technique of squeezing the lower part of the shaft before enveloping the head with his mouth

Ray Comfort is a New Zealand-born, deep-cover atheist, working to demolish the creationists from within. Examples of his works include the banana fallacy, which he is now claiming is a hoax by atheists.[1] His name also sounds like a kind of Laz-E-Boy.

Together with his hetero life mate, Kirk Cameron, he produces the Way of the Master series of TV, radio, and internet articles. These peddle the concept that the way to convert people is not with intellectual arguments or clever rhetoric, but to lay a massive guilt trip on them the way the "master" Jebus would have done.

Most of his arguments against evolution and atheism really aren't worth the time and effort to debunk; he'll just keep coming back with more (or maybe even the same ones).

Contents

Publications

Comfort manages to churn out about 5 books a year, but they are typically light weight in both size and intellect, so this is not really much of an achievement. A lot of his "work" is public domain material he has taken from elsewhere, collated and published. For example, his "Some dead guy" Gold: Pure. Refined. books are just collections of that person's writings or speeches.
