I think Cliffe and Richard Dawkins should debate. Itd be so good, Cliffe would probably win. Please do it Cliffe. Like if u agree

[@deannavarro777]

Moral relativist: I don't believe there are moral absolutes. I wish Cliffe would ask, "Are you absolutely sure?"

[@Void100-v3x]

But even if he said "Yes" that wouldn't be a "MORAL absolute".

[@deannavarro777]

@@Void100-v3x It's self-refuting statement to say there are no moral absolutes because the relativist can't live it out when they experience indignation for something that is absolute evil like rape or murder.

[@Void100-v3x]

@@deannavarro777 Sure but in your first comment you weren't talking about that. It said "Are you absolutely sure?". That's not a moral statement.

[@Void100-v3x]

@@deannavarro777 Okay maybe I wasn't very clear. What I mean is you quoted the moral relativist saying he doesn't believe in absolute morals and than said that if Cliffe asked him "Are you absolutely sure?" that would be showing the contradiction. But just cause you don't believe in MORAL absolutes doesn't mean you can't be ABSOLUTELY sure about something ergo there would be no contradiction. See what I'm saying?

[@fishouttawtr]

The argument for moral relativism is absurd! If the whole world decided that having sex with toddlers or infants was ok...IT WOULD STILL BE ABSOLUTELY WRONG! there are other absolutes as well!

[@kingbob3486]

I'll tackle objective morals first. When we say "you should not" murdered that man in cold blood, rape that woman, or abuse that child. We are appealing to a non material truth that is not merely a personal opinion but a truth that regardless of education, genetics, environment or culture is something objectively "absolutely" true known by all. Now if there is no God from where is this immaterial truth founded? There is none! But we can't live that out. We know morals are real and objective.

[@cmo0429]

Genesis 1:27 So God created man in his own image, in the image of God created he him; male and female created he them. Amen, the only reason we have value, and worth is because God has given us value,and worth. Just look to Christ to see what your value, and worth is. God gave his life to save ours. There's no greater love than His love. Praise Him, and Him alone forever!

I'm agnostic, but I think that Cliffe would probably win in a theological debate. Dawkins is a biologists. If both were to have a debate on evolution, Dawkins would win. It goes both ways, but I think Cliffe is a better debater than Dawkins.

relative moral/truth is so wrapped around the kid's mind, and he tries so hard to reject God. He was trying really hard to defense his relative concept, but he's reaction shows differently. I pray that he may see the truth and embrace reality.

[@kingbob3486]

The fetus has the genetic identity as a unique human person and is living at conception. If you want to create a timeline that says at 9 weeks, 9 months, or 9 years a living organism with human genes can suddenly become human it is purely arbitrary and not based on facts... but since you are so wise...please define the absolute point at which a human becomes valuable.

[@JohnjOcampo]

At conception, a unique set of DNA has been created at that point. If you want to escape your responsibilities do to your actions then go ahead and kill that baby in the womb you coward.

Of course bats and turtles look similar to bats and turtles millions of years ago because they are of the same genus. If you think however that any of the animals you have named have remained unchanged for millions of years you are sadly mistaken.

this one was awesome and the guy at the end seemd really open minded and open hearted, you could tell he was really looking for answers. =)

[@TheWarDog11]

Fact? LOLOL!! That's NOT a fact, our FAITH teaches us to examine the evidence, your belief system teaches you to attack anyone who has the joy of the Lord in their heart because of the misery in your heart. You attack with NO facts and no evidence, so when you can bring a true set of facts as to why YOU believe what you believe and leave the childish language out of it, we can have a rational adult conversation..

[@SuperSlartibartfast]

I said that you don't understand modern thinking on abiogenesis and that modern theories don't assume life started at the cellular level. The beauty of science is that if we don't know exactly how something happened we admit we don't know than investigate using experimant and evidence and we're not afraid to change our ideas based on new evidence. You cannot ascribe a god to explain mysteries, where does your god go when we explain the mystery? How do you know which god is real?

[@rbrack54]

[@zachychan3]

@lion575 Wow. Based on your comment alone your the most intellectually honest person I'v seen this year, Well its no longer 2011 as off a few hours ago, But you know what im saying xD. I stand along side your least biased open minded point of view. Thanks

[@kingbob3486]

They don't assume life started at the cellular level because its a dead end! So they believe it happened spontaneously by some other natural way (with no rational postulates), meanwhile theists get ridiculed for attributing a Creator and are told they don't really understand the "facts of science." Life is a miracle and this miracle is either due to in the beginning God, or in the beginning nothing created everything.

[@kingbob3486]

Slik: the value you place on a human being is so subjective its scary! Hitler expressed his value of human life, and so did Mother Theresa. You seem to think that it really doesn't matter what side of the aisle you take, its merely subjective and your own opinion determines their worth of others. Dr Martin Luther King opposed this idea that regardless of your prejudice we are all valued equally by our Creator. btw: if you are arguing against humans life being valuable then why oppose eugenics?

[@SuperSlartibartfast]

Nobody is suggesting that the first life was cellular, I'd have though with your medical background, you'd have known that. As for life from no life you presumably believe we're made from clay.

[@LeoRegum]

When you use your critical thought and end up at a conclusion that God is 'obsolete' you are arriving there not because that's actually true but for the same reason a robber doesn't run into the police. You (and I) as a sinner are deserving of hell because of your breaking of God's law, not because you are intelligent. Admit it, you really don't want to find Him. You are dead in your sin. (context: Ephesians 2). I pray you'll turn from your pride and listen to what the other side has to say.

[@oliakara8851]

if moral relativism is true how do you make any judgment at all? if the guy says that it was right from his perspective and wrong from my perspective, does it make your perspective superior than his? and if it is superior, what makes it so? in north Korea they starve people but they are only wrong from my perspective. how are they culpable? this guy needs to live in north Korea to give up his moral relativism to understand that starving is not the same as feeding.

[@geniusofmozart]

Evolution does occur by natural selection. Natural selection occurs with the help of mutations. There are countless helpful mutations that you can simply search them up and you'll find hundreds of them. You should learn to inquire independently. I'll give you an example of one though: look at elephants and how mutations mean that there is variation in the population, and how hunters only shoot that ones with long tusks. Ergo, there is a mutation for shorter tusks, it's simple biology.

[@SuperSlartibartfast]

Since we've not been looking very long and probably not in the right places it's not surprising that we haven't a good theory for abiogenesis, we don't even have a well agreed definition of life in the first place. But just because we don't know something doesn't allow you to claim a god did it, do you believe that the Sun or Moon are gods as many cultures believed? You can't show it's a god let alone your god.

I have seen spong and he is a joke, his arguments are a joke, and he couldn't stand up to a 7 yo Christian in an honest debate, matter of fact, he refuses to debate Ravi Zacharias, Dr. David Ragan, Walid Shoebot, etc.. So, using him is a worthless argument. Now, when you are ready to have an honest dialogue I will be here, but until you knock off the angry, childish behavior, and actually come up with true verifiable facts, I don't wanna deal with you. Sorry, but I have enough children at home.

[@kingbob3486]

You already agreed that the scientific community lacks evidence for abiogenesis so I'm not denying the scientific method I am appealing to it for biology. As for proving God, thats impossible. The evidence I appeal to is existence of: logic, justice, objective morals, a finite universe, order and design, the life, teachings, and resurrection of Jesus of Nazareth, freewill, purpose, as well as biblical prophecy verified by the dead sea scrolls, and for me personally the witnessed changed lives.

[@SuperSlartibartfast]

You quote Darwin out of context who did NOT say the evolution of the eye was impossible you should check the full quote before yo post anything else. Trilobites were not the first animal to have eyes, the protist euglena has photo-receptors on its cell membrane. If you read a little of the creatures of the Burgess shales you'll find plenty, unrelated to the trilobite with quite advanced eyes.

[@almiaquinn225]

Praise Jesus!

[@TheWarDog11]

A no show? I don't see how that can be. Just look around, I see God's power and influence everywhere. It seems to me that you are either willfully ignoring it, or you are blind to it. I have had many miracles in my life and have seen the power of God. HOWEVER, you say you have proved that God does not exist many times, I haven't seen your proofs, so please enlighten me as to your proof.

[@kingbob3486]

First you are wrong that God encourages these things. But more importantly you are proving my point. You are appealing to my conscience that I should feel that these are objectively wrong. You don't assume that I or anyone else are ok with these things because you know that we know, just like you do that there is more to this truth then personal bias.The logic of your argument is derived from a theists worldview. You can't live as if the opposite of your belief is also true.

[@SuperSlartibartfast]

It doesn't disprove a designer just an intelligent designer. It does though support evolution. Living creatures evolve by using existing structures. As for your slime and mud idea you either don't understand evolution and abiogenesis or you're putting up a straw man argument.

[@JohnjOcampo]

So evolution created life, got it lol.

[@JermaineJHaggerty123]

wow! THIS IS SO AWESOME!!!

[@TheWarDog11]

Prove that there is no God. I mean, if you are so smart (and you seem to think so) prove your position.

[@kingbob3486]

I'm happy to breakdown each of those passages in the context they are given, but unless you concede that objective morals do exist then you have nothing to complain about. Everyone can do whatever they want ultimately because nothing is wrong is objective morals don't exist You can't square subjective morality with reality. This is plain and obvious because you know what evil is! Is your conscience telling you the truth about reality or are you deluded?

[@brijprasad9530]

conscience came before law!

[@russellkumar1177]

Human life is a journey to Heaven for which the fare has been paid by Jesus Christ in advance! The preacher who uses the Bible ( law, history, prophecy, poetry, gospels, letters and revelations ) is only a tool. The world was made through Jesus Christ. Sin has deformed us but Jesus came to transform the body, soul, and the spirit and our twisted minds too. see www.gotquestions.org

[@JamesAnthonyBro]

Moral realatvism doesn't exist we all have that one thing we all consider to be of ultimate worth to us this is what it means to worship for a atheist it's a worship of self but that's something we all as human beings have done at some point in life so the title "Atheist" doesn't even make sense if were being honest with ourselves, now when it comes to absolute morals there doesn't have to be a overwhelming vote by a group of people in societies to know if something or someone is wrong or right in their worldview therefore all we have do is use the conscious​ mind God gave us which leads to objective morals followed by truth being exclusive in other words truth is not what you as a person make it out to be that's basically the lie have been told lead to believe by their college professors but this is what happens when students on a college campus are misinformed about what is true concerning these subjects.

[@SuperSlartibartfast]

If you want to use this argument you just show that your "intelligent designer" is a terrible engineer. Why would he put a laryngeal nerve in a giraffe fifteen feet long when it only needs to connect structures inches apart? Why construct mamalian ears from the bones of a reptillian jaw?

[@Daracon1010]

Lol Cliffe would "probably" win? Of COURSE he would win. Richard Dawkins is extremely overrated, and he's not philosophically astute at all. He's a biologist... he knows nothing about philosophy.

[@SuperSlartibartfast]

What about gentile slaves, often prisioners of war, who made up the majority of slaves? They were bound to their master in perpetuity as were their children and subject to harsher treatment than Hebrew slaves, I suspect you know that which is why you quoted only Hebrew slaves Or the fact that a father could sell his daughter into sexual slavery (Exodus 21:7-11)? The rules for the practice of slavery are explicit in the Bible but we don't practice it now so how can morals be absolute?

[@SuperSlartibartfast]

OK if you won't accept what I say about abiogenesis and the scientific method. Why don't you prove that a god created the universe and prove it's the god you worship. Quoting the Bible doesn't count as proof nor does an argument from incredulity.

[@SuperSlartibartfast]

Deuteronomy 7:2, Deuteronomy 13:15,1 Samuel 15:2-3 among others makes me believe that your god does encourage these things. You have failed also to show that morals are A). Objective (They're certainly not in the Bible) and B). That we need any sort of god to be moral in the first place.

[@ycat0]

So, according to you and your ilk, God has given us freewill and critical thought to exercise as we see fit. God has given us the greatest gift among all of the animal kingdom, and then he punishes us for using it. We freely choose to make decisions that are contrary to the word of a being that critical thought makes obsolete. We are apparently sent to eternal damnation for using what we are given by a God that won't get off his arse and prove himself to us? What a great and rational God.

[@JohnjOcampo]

Relax you can have your separation from God after all, enjoy 👍🏻

[@TheWarDog11]

as I said before, you want to talk in a mature dialogue I will be more than happy to speak with you, but until you stop with the typical atheist bitterness, I don't wanna talk with you.

[@SuperSlartibartfast]

Objective morals don't exist. Take slavery, do you suppport slavery? I'd hope not yet for thousands of years it was an everyday fact of life, and still is in some cultures, indeed the Bible supports it. What armies do on the battlefield is constantly changing, how we treat those in prison, child marriage or our attitudes to the death penalty all have changed over time.
