Magnets. How do they work?

That's not the Insane Clown Posse…it's Ray Comfort again, screwing up once more.

First, he complains about Richard Feynman (I know! Comfort vs. Feynman sounds a bit like Bambi vs. Godzilla), because he didn't give a simple answer to the question about how magnets repel and attract, but actually goes on at length about what are good questions before explaining succinctly that these forces are everywhere, we just take them for granted. It might be annoying if you want a one-sentence answer, but aren't willing to accept "go master Maxwell's equations" as that explanation.

Comfort's explanation is to watch this video. You will discover that it says nothing about how magnetism, but is only a cheap trick that he uses to hook people into his hateful evangelical baloney. This whole "everyone is evil" crap is Christianity's worst contribution to humanity, and it's the entirety of Comfort's schtick.

If Comfort tried that game with me, I'd take his box away, ask him to show me whether he's good or bad, and when it automatically announces that he's a bad man, ask him why I should believe one word out of his lying mouth.
