telltale trait that shows they know they're on shaky ground: their voices start to rise a few notes with every answer. Sometimes the range can be astonishing, putting them into falsetto range by the time they scream pejoratives and slam down the phone or stomp off a set. It's like they're all machine produced somewhere.

He didn't have a clue that he was spouting the same nonsense that was debunked decades ago. He relied on arguments from ignorance. He was utterly convinced that he was right and parroted nonsense whenever he was asked to prove his assertion.

I really like the atheist experience call-in show. All the hosts were good, but my favorites are Matt Dillahunty and Jeff Dees (for his "how dare you!" rants).
