Imagine the sheer amount of arrogance it would take, to reach the following conclusion: "God is all powerful, all knowing, and all loving - but he's having trouble convincing unbelievers of his existence, so *I* have to step in and HELP him!"

David showed arrogance going off the charts in this series.

@@Prophet.TaeTae144K "Look at the trees!" xD

[@stevewebber707]

@@Prophet.TaeTae144K I tend to argue that the evidence is all around us that the Christian God doesn't exist. And when getting to the details, much of the time a theist responds, "but we can't understand the mind of God." Implying we can't point to reality and consider whether it points to God's existence or not. An example being that we can't understand all the reasons God might need to create suffering, that seems excessive, and unneeded. I would tend to agree that if he was real, and the bible true, that his existence would be clearly seen. And it isn't. Congratulations that the bible calls you wise for believing in the bible I guess. I'm not going to give you a cookie for believing that line though. I would grant that truly wise people understand that they are sometimes fools though. So there could be a grain of truth.

[@GreatCollapsingHrung]

There are two possibilities. Grift or schizophrenia. Either they're aware that no god has ever revealed itself to them and they're using the claims to gain money and/or power, or they're suffering from mental illness and the 'god' they're seeing 'revealed' is a malfunctioning brain. The ones like Pack are clearly making money from their nonsense, so I'd suspect it's mostly grift.

The biggest reason I find your videos so interesting is the fact that I have always been an unbeliever. Quite inexplicably given the geographic and cultural realities of my upbringing in the bible belt. I've never really been able to understand the thinking of my religious family and friends and I find your videos extremely useful in understanding them better because they come from a place I can understand and let me work backwards into their worldview in a way. I'm not a recruiter and have no interest in helping others deconstruct but I am a normalizer. I find the insights you provide endlessly helpful in projecting the kindness, normalcy, and well grounded reasoning I feel that requires, even though I admittedly fall short of my own ideals at times. It can be really hard not to want to be right more than I want to be kind at times but I do pretty good at refraining from flinging poo, for an ape, most of the time. :) Thanks Paul!

I wouldn't say it's "recruiting" as much as it is putting information out there for those who are open to it. Of course coming from that sort of background you would want to spare others the many years lost to religion and help them transition easier and less painful. As an informed Atheist worldview is tightly knit to a critical mindset and look-at-the-facts-for-yourself approach I would be surprised if anyone in the Atheist community would actually try and "recruit" people to a secular worldview. We all know too well what manipulation by skewing the facts or hiding critical information, indoctrination (targeting the young or vulnerable), fearmongering, abuse of authority and all those other shady tactics look like.

11:50 This is actually a really good point FOR evolution... like yeah, I don't have the knowledge to design a full ecosystem from scratch, or even a single complex life form. But what I COULD do is pump some chemicals out onto a dead planet, and then just wait a billion years to see how they get along... presumably time is pretty meaningless to me at that point, so this would be a pretty good method. And even if I'm not sure what chemicals to use, or what kind of planet is best... well, just make a million of them and vary up the parameters, one of them should eventually work. Hey, why not just make a universe that kind of creates stars and planets all on its own, on loop, and mixes up all the chemicals and building blocks automatically for me too... that way I could have trillions of planets, all with random starting parameters, one of those is bound to work out eventually!

11:15 - "Could you have created this much (complicated and interdependent stuff) by yourself?" He makes a good case for the development of the universe and the life in it being a decentralized process with no single creative agent behind directing it. Though I say "good case" and not "great case" because the question of whether I could do it has little to do with whether something else could. It's a bad analogy and an appeal to ideas that feel good, not necessarily to ideas that *are* good. My inclination to believe that all that complexity and diversity is the product of a decentralized process rather than the work of a single intelligent agent is likewise a matter of intuition, just an idea that suits how I view the world. We approach the truth by considering the evidence, not by considering which ideas feel good.

As an ex-Christian the most tragic thing to see out of believers in a God is what this man speaks about. He's so convinced of his own belief and that it's true yet cannot prove it then has the gall to say everyone else is confused and wrong instead of introspecting and evaluating his beliefs. The thing that brought me out of my belief was I had to admit to myself that I could be truly wrong about what the truth is. I had to question and evaluate 20 years of Christian teaching. I had to objectively look at both sides of the story and weigh them both fairly. You can't do that when you are convinced your position is the correct one. That is what keeps so many people, regardless of their belief, from discovering truth. To find the truth you must be willing to change your beliefs because you will inevitably have false and misinformed ideas and beliefs. You must fit your beliefs around facts instead of trying to fit facts around your beliefs.

We have never seen these universal constants under divine conditions and therefore cannot possibly say they would remain constant under such conditions.

[@Uryvichk]

Assuming you have infinite time (or "time," attempts, whatever), it's actually inevitable that you would eventually create a universe superior to this one (by human standards) by just randomly fiddling with variables. Just keep turning one knob a little each time, and it'll happen eventually. And the thing is, if you argue God didn't need to do that, well... we only have God's word on that. Maybe He just lucked into this whole universe thing and is trying to take credit. That's certainly what I'd do. Also if someone ever asks you one of those "Are you capable of [vast difficult thing]?" questions, just say yes. "Yeah, if I had God's power and were in God's place I'd design a better universe than his, you gonna give me God's power and a fresh universe to prove it? Because I will. Just say the word when you're going to grant me omnipotence." Nevermind that the question itself is trivial; all you have to do is say "I'd make the exact same universe as this, but without cancer." Same thing with anyone claiming no one can improve on their holy book; just take out one sentence of some really bad stuff and you've "written" a better book, Borges-style.

[@iriswaters]

@@Hunpecked yeah that definitely seems a thing. I am more interested in the fact that it's a Christian saying it, given that one of the more common apologetics is that our tendency to believe in gods is itself evidence that there must be a god. But even more so, there's the whole line of thought around "all know that God exists, so that none can honestly claim ignorance". The whole notion that there could be even ONE non resistant non believer makes the entire concept of hell unequivocally an act of pure evil(even moreso than it would otherwise be). And if belief requires overcoming a natural resistance to belief, then non resistant non believers should be the norm, not the exception.

[@Irisarc1]

I don't know why they think I would not change what I believe if presented with irrefutable facts. I have done this innumerable times in my life about other things, important things.

Exactly. I'm fully open to the possibility that a deity exists, and it is free to show up and demonstrate that, but I have no reason to believe one does otherwise.

[@martinmckee5333]

@@Hhjhfu247 I do not expect to ever be convinced of the existence of a god. However, I do not accept the lack of evidence as positive evidence for non-existence. That would be committing a black swan fallacy. Our knowledge - as humans - is far too limited to make an assertion of the form, "if we haven't seen it, it doesn't exist."

@@biggregg5 I was responding to a comment - now no longer visible - it seems that posited that the lack of evidence could allow us to know - with certainty - that God did not exist.

This guy (Pack) is a terrifying god imposter. I can see him burning people at the stake.

[@onedaya_martian1238]

Even today, there were people blowing shofars outside the Capitol in Washington DC on Jan 6, expecting god to disassemble the building supposedly like in the fairy tale about Jericho. If Pack were a mulla he likely could have got some people to fly a plane into that building and hit it this time.

David is truly an author of confusion. I, like you Paul, was a fundamentalist Christian for most of my adult life and it was only when I started to read books other than the Bible with an open mind that I began my journey away from religion. Reading the Bible with a critical mind also helped me to see that it's just a big book of Bronze Age fairy tales. I have lost count of the number of times people like David deliberately lied to me and went out of their way to deceive me when I was a Christian. They are willing to lie for Jesus.

actually, when he talks about the diversity of insects, to me it makes perfect sense they all come form a common ancestor and evolve in parallel. and when i think about a grand designer, it almost makes sense, but then you think, why design so many completely different things when all you want is friends in heaven? what has a wasp got to do with salvation??

Got to love your movie knowledge! If I had that god-like power to create I would create evolution... and sit back and watch. I am pretty sure I did actually create the universe.. wasn't even there before I was born. Some really good acid may have helped with the creativity though.

[@lee11991964]

Whenever I listen to David Pack giving his "overwhelming" evidence for God I cannot help wondering who he is trying to convince, the atheist or himself...the "evidence" he presents is circular and in a lot of cases childlike, he has presented absolutely nothing that would make a clear-eyed person think he has a point, look at the way Paul has deconstructed his arguments with ease. These arguments are aimed at theists who want to be reassured, and Pack fills this need for them.

As a storyteller I am capable of worldbuilding all kinds of fancy stuff, and well, if I would have divine power then I would have no issue to do so on a universal scale, and of course I have not to micromanagement everything, I simply can set systems into motion that develop all on their own plenty of variations... basically just like evolution does.

[@theflyingdutchguy9870]

There's such a thing as the poetic use of words. I might use the word soul meaning that which could be considered to be the essence of a person, the amalgamation of personality, views and actions making them the individual they are. Doesn't mean that I think there's an inbuilt undetectable permanent phenomenon, that was "created" at conception exists.
