Donall and Conall Meet Richard Dawkins

There's no evidence of God's existence if you don't count all the evidence of God's existence. Donall and Conall are having a hard time understanding this, so Richard Dawkins has stopped by to enlighten them.

[@druiz187]

"Did you really just argue that God can't exist because he is mean?" I lost it at that point. Well done, Lutheran Satirist.

[@azophi]

Yeah well obviously that’s not an argument against a God but it in an argument against the God of the (inerrant) Bible. To be honest I don’t find contradictions as a reason that convincing, but yeah

ACTS 4:12 Nor is there salvation in any other, for there is no other name under heaven given among men by which we must be saved.” There is only One Mediator between God and men, LORD Jesus Christ= 1 Timothy 2:5 For there is one God and one Mediator between God and men, the Man Christ Jesus. Hebrew 9:15 And for this reason He is the Mediator of the new covenant, by means of death, for the redemption of the transgressions under the first covenant, that those who are called may receive the promise of the eternal inheritance. Hebrew 12:24 to Jesus the Mediator of the new covenant, and to the blood of sprinkling that speaks better things than that of Abel. Hebrew 8:6 But now He has obtained a more excellent ministry, inasmuch as He is also Mediator of a better covenant, which was established on better promises. Ephesians 2:18 For through Him we both have access by One Spirit to the Father John 15:5 5 “I am the vine, you are the branches. He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you can do nothing. _________________________ Work of God = John 6:28 Then they said to Him, “What shall we do, that we may work the works of God?” 29 Jesus answered and said to them, “This is the work of God, that you believe in Him whom He sent.” _________________________ 1 Timothy 3:2 A bishop then must be blameless, the husband of one wife, temperate, sober-minded, of good behavior, hospitable, able to teach Paul allows bishops to get marry, but catholic church goes against paul.

But they will not tell you that the same chapter they quote says 1 Corinthians 7:28 "even if you do marry, you have not SINNED". The passage literally says "young women, young men" and a bishop is supposed to be a Church ELDER. Mic drop _________________________ Jesus said Matthew 23:9 9 Do not call anyone on earth your father; for One is your Father, He who is in heaven.

Holy Father, keep through Your name those whom You have given Me, that they may be one as We are. Jesus said call no one Father but still catholics call *pope holy father. Sad _________________________ Whenever a catholic argue about mary being the mother of God Use this to defeat the argument. Luke 8:21 But He answered and said to them, “My mother and My brothers are these who hear the word of God and do it.” Matthew 12:46-50 46 While He was still talking to the multitudes, behold, His mother and brothers stood outside, seeking to speak with Him. 47 Then one said to Him, “Look, Your mother and Your brothers are standing outside, seeking to speak with You.” 48 But He answered and said to the one who told Him, “Who is My mother and who are My brothers?” 49 And He stretched out His hand toward His disciples and said, “Here are My mother and My brothers! 50 For whoever does the will of My Father in heaven is My brother and sister and mother.”. Mark 3:35 For whoever does the will of God is My brother and My sister and mother.” John 19:26-27 26 When Jesus therefore saw His mother, and the disciple whom He loved standing by, He said to His mother, “Woman, behold your son!” 27 Then He said to the disciple, “Behold your mother!” And from that hour that disciple took her to his own home. ( Jesus basically said John is the son of mary, and mary is the mother of John from that time onwards). By the way sarah is the mother of all proof=Galatians 4:21-26. _________________________ We should not pray to apostles Romans 1:25 25 who exchanged the truth of God for the lie, and worshiped and served the creature rather than the Creator, who is blessed forever. Amen. Acts 10:25-26 25 As Peter was coming in, Cornelius met him and fell down at his feet and worshiped him. 26 But Peter lifted him up, saying, “Stand up; I myself am also a man.” Acts 14:15 15 and saying, “Men, why are you doing these things? We also are men with the same nature as you, and preach to you that you should turn from these useless things to the living God, who made the heaven, the earth, the sea, and all things that are in them, Revelation 19:10 10 And I fell at his feet to worship him. But he said to me, “See that you do not do that! I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren who have the testimony of Jesus. Worship God! For the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy.” Revelation 22:8-9 8 Now I, John, saw and heard these things. And when I heard and saw, I fell down to worship before the feet of the angel who showed me these things. 9 Then he said to me, “See that you do not do that. For I am your fellow servant, and of your brethren the prophets, and of those who keep the words of this book. Worship God." Colossians 2:18 18 Let no one cheat you of your reward, taking delight in false humility and worship of angels, intruding into those things which he has not seen, vainly puffed up by his fleshly mind, You cannot go to Father through saints nor mary, you can only go to the Father through Lord Jesus Christ= John 14:6 Jesus said to him, “I am the way, the truth, and the life. No one comes to the Father except through Me. Ephesians 2:18 For through Him we both have access by one Spirit to the Father. Holy Spirit intercedes for us=Romans 8:26 26 Likewise the Spirit also helps in our weaknesses. For we do not know what we should pray for as we ought, but the Spirit Himself makes intercession for us with groanings which cannot be uttered. And CHRIST as well=Romans 8:34 34 Who is he who condemns? It is Christ who died, and furthermore is also risen, who is even at the right hand of God, who also makes intercession for us. Hebrews 7:25 25 Therefore He is also able to save to the uttermost those who come to God through Him, since He always lives to make intercession for them. It's Christ and Holy Spirit who intercedes for us not apostles _________________________ Apostles are allowed to marry, 1 Corinthians 9:1-5 1 Am I not an apostle? Am I not free? Have I not seen Jesus Christ our Lord? Are you not my work in the Lord? 2 If I am not an apostle to others, yet doubtless I am to you. For you are the seal of my apostleship in the Lord. 3 My defense to those who examine me is this: 4 Do we have no right to eat and drink? 5 Do we have no right to take along a believing wife, as do also the other apostles, the brothers of the Lord, and Cephas? If Peter (peter is cephas read John 1:42) the so called "first pope" was married, why does the catholic church doesn't allow "pope" to marry? _________________________ The so called vicar of christ/ pope/holy father Peter called himself a fellow elder in 1 Peter 5:1, and as per the qualifications of elder in Titus 1:5-9 the elder is allowed to get married; then why does the "pope" is required to be celibate and catholic? ( when Peter was neither celibate nor catholic). 1)Peter was not perfect human nor was he a perfect disciple 2)He sank down while walking on water 3)Our Lord said to peter get behind me satan 4)Peter reject our Lord 3 times 5)Our Lord rebuked Peter for calling fire from heaven 6)Our Lord rebuked Peter when he cut of the soilders ear 7)Paul rebuked Peter for being hypocrite because he was acting different in front of Jews and different in front of gentiles. 8) Moses messed up, and he was a important part of Bible ( that's why he never entered the promised land), 9)David messed up ( and he has the Holy Spirit), 10)King Soloman messed up, 11) Saul messed up and God regretted the decision (1 Samuel 15:10-11). Hatrick (Saul then David then Soloman back to back messed up) 12)The apostles run away a day before Lord Jesus got locked up. 13)The early church messed up Rev 2:18-20, 1 Corinthians, Galatians. 14) Apostle John when receiving Revelation worshiped an angel and the angel said "see you do not do that. Worship GOD" Revelation 22:8-9 If these great people could mess up, why do you think the catholic church wouldn't mess up. _ Galatians 4:21-26 21 Tell me, you who desire to be under the law, do you not hear the law? 22 For it is written that Abraham had two sons: the one by a bondwoman, the other by a freewoman. 23 But he who was of the bondwoman was born according to the flesh, and he of the freewoman through promise, 24 which things are symbolic. For these are the two covenants: the one from Mount Sinai which gives birth to bondage, which is Hagar- 25 for this Hagar is Mount Sinai in Arabia, and corresponds to Jerusalem which now is, and is in bondage with her children- 26 but the Jerusalem above is free, which is the mother of us all. Sarah is mother of all, Not mary Also the Church has many name like Christians, Evangelists, Children of God, Believers, servents of God, bride of Christ, but not once the Church is called catholics Changed the 10 commandments by deleting 2nd commandment, and dividing the 10th into 2 commandments.

[@t13596]

Science doesn't know everything and doesn't claim to know everything. The Big Bang is an example of this. It's not the universe didn't come from nothing it's that science doesn't really know that far back. What science does know about the Big Bang is that it wasn't an explosion like people who don't understand its claim. The Big Bang is an expansion of the universe that is still going on today and can be observed. Also another thing this video says evolution can't be seen and it's something science accepts which is false. Evolution can be observed I have an evolutionary trait on my arm for one so I can personally observe it. Also, humans have Neanderthal DNA especially like 3% related to Neanderthals on average if you are caucasian.

[@elliottberkley]

@@t13596 Science doesn't know anything. Scientists reach conclusions based on experiments or they theorize. They say man has very close DNA to a primate but neglect to mention it is the same percentage to rodents. Evolution is taught in schools as scientific fact even though it is not fact. Without an experiment and a conclusion it is just theory. As far as observing adaptation and jumping all the way to all life comes from a puddle, I would argue that irreducible complexity can not be ignored. The human body may exist without a limb like your arm, but it needs all hormones, cell function, temperature stabilization, individual organs with functions and so on, to work as one, for a human to survive. To believe that these things either came about one by one or all at once is a leap of a theory, not a fact.

[@t13596]

@@elliottberkley You haven't really done much research, have you. Newton's theory of gravity is also a scientific theory but look up the word scientific theory. Also, it's not a bad thing to teach evolution in schools and it is observable and we do have fossils look into the evolution of horses and you will find there is actual fossil evidence. Also, this whole idea that everything has to be observable by science lookup universe expansion. Science doesn't know how the Big Bang happen and that's really the best answer rather than having religion tell you God did it. And the Big Bang really isn't the correct either it was more like an expansion. But really look up these things like the evolution of horses and universe expansion.

You can observe evolution by artificial selection under laboratory conditions in bacteria, viruses, insects and if you have a few years to spare and a lot of resources even some mammals (ex. that one experiment to domesticate foxes). Scientists have also observed many examples of evolution in the wild ranging from tree moths in England changing color during the industrial revolution (after the trees got sooty, in just a few years black moths replaced bark colored ones) to flu viruses adapting to vaccines, which is why we need a new vaccine every year.

[@AlexanderRM1000]

@@withlessAsbestos Imagine denying evolution after >150 years of an unfathomable large body of accumulated evidence and accusing people who disagree with you of denying evidence... because in 2000 years of Christian history priests and theologians have never done that even once. Google isn't working for me at the moment so I can't fact check that but from first principles I'd expect, in the absence of natural selection, the average chromosome should lose useful information from one generation to the next as a result of random mutation, although I don't know if it would get shorter. Evolution by natural selection isn't a teleological process but rather a constant push against entropy and has an upper bound- that's why humans have vastly fewer useful genes than say corn, we're not "more advanced" than corn but simply stumbled on a really interesting way to use those limited genes. Evolutionary biologists have known all this since something like the 1930s and the key parts (that evolution isn't teleological at least) are covered in high school biology at least where I went to school.

[@slossboss]

@@AlexanderRM1000 I personally won't believe in evolution no matter how much data you try to throw at me. Darwin's third chapter of the Descent of Man is the most racist, degrading, disgusting, scientifically inaccurate piece of literature in all of science. That alone puts atheism into question because it ultimately denies love, divine or human, as the force that gives everything meaning and substance and instead treats it as a chemical reaction in the brain. Certainly there is genetic drift. That has created a wide variety of life within their kinds of life. But I am not an evolved monkey and a dog doesn't come from a fish or bird from a dinosaur (also known as a dragon by the way). To say that humanity came from apes is the most insulting and demeaning thing that has ever been said about humanity. To say that robs us of our divinely given dignity, changing our existence from who to what, from being to thing, from people to animals, from imagebears, co-creators, and stewards of Creation to meaningless biological soup. When a person is dehumanized in any way, all evils become morally acceptable. You can treat them however you wish. You can murder them, abuse them, and violate them for any reason. You can label them, degrade them, and insult them, after all, they're not important and intrinsically valuable. What then of justice for those who have been wronged? What then of compassion for the hurting and mercy for the weak? The state you believe in leads to barbarism, nothing more and nothing less. God is mean?

Most of this is great. The evolution quip probably needs clarification, though. The term 'evolution' can refer to either microevolution, macroevolution, or universal common descent. Universal common descent is the one that can't be seen by anyone in a laboratory, and needs to be inferred by looking at historical evidence...the same way people validate the authenticity of the Gospels. The part at the end with Dawkins saying God doesn't exist because he's mean might be a bit of a strawman. I've only heard Dawkins use God's 'meanness' to say that the Bible shouldn't be the source of our morality, which is a different subject. But one could still argue that God doesn't exist because he's claimed to be omnibenevolent but there are reports of him being evil, the same way you would reject the accuracy of conflicting witness testimonies. The real issue would be Dawkins not understanding divine justice, which you only mentioned in an offhand sentence.

Perhaps the evolution quip needs clarification, but since nobody denies microevolution, and since the entire engine of the theory of macroevolution, random genetic change leading to more advanced organisms, is the opposite of everything observed, it wasn't worth muddying up the joke to make that point:-) As for your second point, Dawkins spends the majority of "The God Delusion" depicting the Triune God as a murderous bully not worthy of our faith, so it's far from a straw man.

Right, so you ignore a God which could do these miracles (afterall, He did create the universe) in order to prove that God can't exist.

[@Goabnb94]

HulkRemade We do see miracles today. They aren't famous because they haven't been documented quite so infamously as they are in the bible. We just can't prove that we do see them, because miracles, for obvious reasons, cannot be predicted or reproducible in a controlled environment where it can be confirmed. But they obviously don't happen every single day in every single place. Statistically speaking, you or me are unlikely to see any. There are thousands of made up Gods...but how many have had such a large group of believers for such a long time? 99% of Gods were believed by a few people groups, for a relatively short period of time. But this illustrates another point - why do you think so many cultures believe in an intelligent being (eg a God)? I mean, sure we can explain why they worshiped a sun God, but why did they think there was a sun God in the first place? What is the connection between natural processes and linking that process to a God? Take what you will from it, but I believe its because there is a God, and they knew it, although they didn't know how God worked and so they associated the sun to a God and so on. I mean, I don't accept that they see the sun rising and explain it through by saying God, unless they believed a God existed first. And why have so many seemingly isolated cultures believed in a God as a common factor? Yes I do believe God would create a giant universe. He created it to show His majesty, so why would He just create our local galaxy? And no, there was no "evidence planting" - that is only for somebody who believes in the Young Earth theory. Genesis 1 is not a historical recount, it is poetic language. Illustrating that the writer certainly believed God created the universe, like all Christians do (or should), but is not historically detailing the events, only poetically describing them. Yes, I do believe God created the universe 13 or so billion years ago, and that what we describe as "the big bang" was actually what God was doing. Our scientific theories just don't include God, and I can understand that. Actually, you'd be surprised how many atheists use this logic. It may surprise you, but quite a few atheists don't actually truly understand atheism. They are more concerned about attacking theists and using shotty logic they don't even understand (its what they managed to google) to try and belittle theists. Instead of actually researching what they believe and having intelligent debates with those with opposing views. Richard Dawkins has led a whole bunch of atheists to do this, and many, atheists even, call out the errors in the God Delusion. Don't get me wrong, its not one sided, there are many theists who do the same thing. Basically, they are more interested in trying to convert the other side and belittling those who don't convert, than actually discussing their beliefs. No we are not done. That is not a sufficient reason to not believe in God, and I believe you misunderstood my comment. You can assume there is no God because of lack of evidence, but that does not mean "its stupid to believe He does". That is not how conclusions are made. And the entire point of my comment was merely to describe how the "impossibility" of miracles is not sufficient evidence for or against God.

[@HulkRemade]

Goabnb94 "We do see miracles today. They aren't famous because they haven't been documented quite so infamously as they are in the bible." So, we don't have records of miracles, but quite perfectly, they're in the Bible. And I'm supposed to believe it?

And why have so many seemingly isolated cultures believed in a God as a common factor?" Maybe perhaps because they are farmers that believe in superstition...It's easier to believe in God because you don't have to deal with loss as badly. It's less terrible when somebody dies when you think that they will be up in heaven with the giant sky creature. " Genesis 1 is not a historical recount, it is poetic language. Illustrating that the writer certainly believed God created the universe, like all Christians do (or should), but is not historically detailing the events, only poetically describing them." You can say that, but that doesn't mean it's true. For 3000 years people believed that. Why didn't God say the Earth was 13.6 billion years old in the book so everybody could know that this was the book and rejoice? Also, the Bible says the Earth is flat. "They are more concerned about attacking theists and using shotty logic they don't even understand (its what they managed to google) " I don't google stuff, well I do, but I usually watch a ton of stuff and research a lot. If there is no evidence, then it's stupid to believe in a God. Why not believe in a giant invisible flying spaghetti monster? That IS how conclusions are made.

[@Goabnb94]

HulkRemade I create a pill and claim it cures cancer. Testing reveals insufficient evidence of curing cancer. Whats the conclusion? I can tell you this, its nots "its stupid to assume that your pill cures cancer." The conclusion is "there is not enough evidence to accept the existence of God." Or that the pill cures cancer. Why not believe in the flying spaghetti monster? Well, sure go ahead. Unlike God, however, there is absolutely no evidence for it. Yeah, I think what you fail to understand is that although God has not been proven scientifically,it doesn't mean there is absolutely no evidence supporting the claim that He exists. Therefore, that is not a valid conclusion. Well, when I mention google, I'm talking about people who search for what they think is correct, and take the first link that agrees with them. I'm also talking about people who quote bible verse claiming the say one thing, without quoting the next verse because it actually disproves the point they are trying to make. There are just some blind atheists out their who think they know philosophy and theology from a 10 minute google search is what I meant. Actually, when it comes to Genesis 1, its only been in the last 400 or so years that people have taken it literally and the Young Earth Theory began. And the point of the bible is not to state every single fact, it would have to be massive. Basically, the bible was never intended to be a science textbook stating facts. It is merely describing what has happened. Genesis 1 simply details that God created the universe, and in what order. The original manuscript does not detail the time as days, only as time. And I ask you, where does the bible say the Earth is flat? Because Isaiah 40:22 states the circle of the Earth - indicating the belief of a spherical Earth. Yes, I understand how superstition is established, but what thought up the idea of a God? Ancient people may have believed that a storm came because they didn't worship a certain God, but where did the first concept of God come from? If a storm comes, whose idea was it to say "maybe somebody summoned this storm because they weren't happy with us, so lets make them happy" and if the storm stops when they kill somebody, they think they have to kill somebody as a sacrifice to appease a God. But who though it was a God that bought the storm? The sun has always been here while life has existed, so which early human suddenly decided that it must be a God controlling the sun, or that the sun is a God that needs to be worshiped in order to rise? When humans were able to start questioning how the sun rises and sets, who said "well, maybe its this like supernatural being we have never experienced before that we need to worship or else they will stop rising the sun"? Do you get what I am saying? Sorry, what I mean is that I certainly do believe miracles do happen in this day and age. I'm not trying to say you must believe in miracles. All I am saying is, if God exists, they are possible both today and in Jesus' time. If God doesn't exist, then they aren't possible. Instead of saying miracles are impossible and therefore Jesus never did any therefore there can be no Christian God, which already assumes there is no Christian God in the first place, how about proving the Christian God doesn't exist. I get you don't accept that the miracles happen. But that fact alone cannot prove the bible is wrong or that God doesn't exist. But I hear it all the time from atheists.

Goabnb94 It's possible to at least denounce the credibility of the Bible. Isaiah 11:12 And he shall set up an ensign for the nations, and shall assemble the outcasts of Israel, and gather together the dispersed of Judah from the *FOUR CORNERS OF THE EARTH*. Isaiah 40: It is he who sits above the circle of the earth, and its inhabitants are like grasshoppers; who stretches out the heavens like a … Proverbs 8: When He prepared the heavens, I was there, When He drew a circle on the face of the deep... From Genesis chapter 11: 4 Then they said, "Come, let us build ourselves a city, with a tower that reaches to the heavens, so that we may make a name for ourselves and not be scattered over the face of the whole earth." 5 But the LORD came down to see the city and the tower that the men were building. 6 The LORD said, "If as one people speaking the same language they have begun to do this, then nothing they plan to do will be impossible for them. So it's saying it's possible by building a tower to reach heaven although we have space shuttles in space all the time. Revelation 7: And after these things I saw four angels standing on *FOUR CORNERS OF THE EARTH*, holding the four winds of the earth, that the wind should not blow on the earth, nor on the sea, nor on any tree. I remember somewhere it talked about the ends of the Earth although the Earth has no end and such. If you remember the story in which God stopped the sun, this is really confusing because then God stopped the sun from turning which isn't possible. The bible says slavery is God's will and that you can hurt a slave as long as he doesn't die The bible says that women should submit to their husbands and their husbands have dominion over them.

[@MildlyRabid]

Yep, that’s the issue with arguing from the Bible. Nevertheless, the Resurrection account was written by people who by their own words did not believe in it at first. We tend to forget ancient people were just like us. They might not hae known exactly how a brain shuts down (for that matter, we hardly do), but they did know that when a guy is dead-he dead. The ancients weren’t some unexplainedly gullible goofs: they were reasonable guys who saw something impossible. That’s the point.

Wait….biblical accounts of rising for the dead can’t be based on witness accounts because the Bible wasn’t written for a long time after that

[@joe5959]

The accounts were preserved until it was written

[@drowningincats3921]

@@joe5959 not sure you wanna go with that angle. Did you ever play “Telephone” in school? One child tells another a simple sentence, the sentence is quietly passed down the line of kids and by the time the last one repeats the sentence it’s not anything like the original sentence. This happens to humans within minutes of communication, but then you put that situation into an area of the world that had multiple languages intermingling and wait a millennia, there may be some misunderstandings. Especially due to Christians being forced to hide their faith during all the various wars and times of turmoil where they were still HEAVILY persecuted.

[@ertawanderer1062]

um no. all of the gospels were written within 30 years of the death of Jesus. 3 of them were written by eye witnesses and one was a transcription from multiple eye witnesses. the rest of the new testament was all completed within 50-60 years of the death of Jesus so within the lifespan of a single generation

Christian Anarchist You dont believe the Word of God? So why did Jesus die?

[@ShonaMcCarthy]

marklar2012 Most theistic evolutionists take God's word seriously. This is why they're reconciling it with the available information in allowing for Evolution. Having said that, even if someone was completely Atheistic and disbelieved the Bible completely, they could still open up a news paper and know that man is sinful.

[@marklar2012]

Shona McCarthy Those who believe evolution and Bible are fools because it cannot work together. All of the gospel is about Jesus who died for the sins because the wage of the sin is death and evolution claims that death existed before men so it is false and foolish.

[@r.c.apologist2008]

marklar2012 I do believe the word of God, but I know the genre and context of different styles of literature. Judges 4 for example is the account of the battle of Deborah, but Judges 5 is a poem with some things that didn't happen in Judges 4. There is metaphors and parables used to describe truths.

[@ShonaMcCarthy]

marklar2012 Well yes the gospel is to be taken with absolute seriousness, but there's nothing in theistic evolution to contradict the concept of sin. As I said, anyone can be sure of sin since they themselves sin daily. So there is nothing intrinsic to theistic evolution that must contradict the Bible or the Gospels in any way.
