BasilMarket is Dead but Who is Still Alive? Hello to anyone who is still alive, It's been a while. I started posting here since 2007 and that's when BasilMarket started its prime. For some of you reading, you were finger painting and singing your ABCs back then. Then somewhere around 2010 to 2012 (It's all a blur), I began to not post here as often and surely... BasilMarket started to die. Today I come home and see this. BasilMarket, I'm sorry this happened to you. This whole thing is entirely my fault. I should have been there. I could have prevented all of this. I was too busy trying to live my life that I completely forgot that Basil is life. Now I'm here and I'm looking for survivors. Who is still in the game? I know most of you are lur

Once upon a time, Basilmarket was so peaceful and everyone was a friendly atheist. No one played Call of Duty MW. No one listened to Justin Bieber. Every thread, unlike today, actually had original content and original memes. It was a time when Basil fame actually had street cred. There were no trolls. In fact, the word, troll, didn't exist until new basil invented it. It was so especially awesome when everyone talked in third person or made their own signature. I remember

The Godliest Thread about Atheism and Religion for Science God forbid we have another thread about religion/atheism on Chat Island, but I digress. I will act respectfully when addressing your opposing views given that you do the same. This thread is an attempt for me with skepticism to understand the reasonings behind a perspective I currently view to be illogical and perhaps that's also the case vice versa. My goal isn't to convince people to atheism. My goal is for people to think and learn something. Will this thread make any lasting impact on most basilers reading this thread? Like any other debate on the internet, hell no; but it might for some people for I have faith. [header][/header] I'll start by asking the following. Why do you be
