1. Jillette wrote a book on how to cheat at cards. Worse, in it he suggested that if invited to a low stakes card.....

……game and, faced with hours of playing with a potential small reward and, if upon arriving at the game you spotted a purse in the hallway with sufficient cash in it, you should just steal the cash and leave. The cheating at cards and simple theft were, in his mind equivalent crimes, so the theft was just an expedient.
He is low-life scum and nothing he says, in my opinion, changes that.

2. Now it's important enough that Johnny was an atheist for any believer to give up their religion. I mean, if Johnny

did it, so should everyone! NOT! And I'm speaking as a non-believer. I would never try to convince someone to give up their beliefs because Johnny did.

I have never understood the importance of celebrities' thinking and how it affects us. Every election, these people take sides. In fact, every time they open their mouths on a subject unrelated to their occupation or their mission in life, we instantly think of them as experts and use them as examples of how to vote or live independent of their real knowledge as compared to anyone else. They instantly become experts whether or not they know more than other people. Name recognition is not equal to expertise or even intelligence.

3. He was a big contributor to James Randi ...

... and put up the million dollars for the psychic challenge.

4. Well of course; only self-deluded people are theists. And Johnny wasn't one of those.
