The Atheist Experience 26.25 with Apostate Prophet and Secular Rarity : kzbin.info/www/bejne/qGPbqoxud7KLeM0

[@northernlight8857]

I recognized your voice straight away. I hoped it would go better. It kinda stranded. Awesome that you called in.

[@cvs-podcast]

Hey! Did you catch it on Atheist Experience first, and then come over here? My version has better audio--and I included the funny screening process (pronouns, Canadian Catholic confusion, etc.) LOL

[@jkm9332]

Well done, my brother. You had them wanting to end that call as soon as possible.

[@cvs-podcast]

Thanks.

[@jkm9332]

@@cvs-podcast love the way you think

[@philgonzales1218]

“Un-Cascaded first cause.” So nothing? 1:26

[@JacksCrazyStories]

Hey David you did great! Have you read Ed Feser's book on the 'Five Proofs of God'?

[@JacksCrazyStories]

I'm not sure that I agree that Hindus accept the uncaused first cause because they are pagan polytheists.

[@cvs-podcast]

Thanks. No, I haven't read any Feser yet. It is not clear what Hinduism teaches about the uncaused first-cause. I am certain some Hindus are Monotheists, while most are Monists. Let's chat about these questions and more on a livestream. Book it here: calendly.com/cvs-podcast

Apostate prophet is a good channel. Very genuine and honest atheist

[@cvs-podcast]

Seems like a very nice guy, yeah.

I didn’t appreciate the smug take at the end from the hosts but boy did you not get anything useful or substantial out. Keep working on the script, it’s rough. Also recommend looking up what perfect is defined as, your end bit was goofy. Pure perfection…..

[@cvs-podcast]

To correct, as far as possible, the inadequate character of the concepts through which we must formulate our idea of God, the first step is to distinguish created perfection into two kinds, viz., mixed perfections and pure perfections. A pure perfection is one whose exact concept does not include any note formally expressive of defect or limitation; the content of the idea is entirely positive. The idea of a mixed perfection, on the contrary, formally or directly connotes, along with what is positive in the perfection, some privation or deficiency. Examples of the former are power, truthfulness, will; as an instance of the latter, materiality may be offered. For, though the reality that belongs to matter is, of course, a participation of existence and activity, yet the concept of it connotes the imperfections of that particular kind of existence which is composite and subject to disintegration. Again, personality is a pure perfection; for, as Catholic philosophy teaches, though the finite character of human personality comes into play in the awakening of self-consciousness, yet limitation is not an essential constituent of personality. All terms that stand for pure perfections are predicated analogically of God, and are designated attributes in the wide sense of the word. When terms which signify mixed perfections are predicated of God, the analogy becomes so faint that the locution is a mere metaphor. www.newadvent.org/cathen/02062e.htm

@@cvs-podcast great, but this is all a human perspective, not dictated by the thing referenced, so once again, not substantiated. I know you can’t substantiate this claim, so I don’t expect you to. The big question always boils down to “why do you believe this?” I know you’re a very inquisitive person, so am I, but I stop at the point of saying “this is true” without the evidence to support the claim. Keep working on it though. I would also role back a bit on claiming these things you believe as “having to be true”. Be more humble and say you strongly believe it. Just a more honest take in my opinion.

I actually like Apostate Prophet. He seems like a genuine dude. Also, hilarious. You live in Canada and you’re Catholic, therefore you must be Canadian Catholic 😂

[@cvs-podcast]

Haha, it's absurd. Here's proof that I am not that "Canadian Catholic" guy who calls in to the Atheist Experience all the time: kzbin.info/www/bejne/d4TLZ6VoqtKKjMU In the comments section of my first call, the rabid Atheists accused me of the same thing dozens of times: kzbin.info/www/bejne/mKTEh4Wnj5mAgcU
