We would have agreement on 10,000 different objects! The only object that we would disagree on is when people claim the universe, 'look at the trees', hearsay in a book, or a logically fallacious philosophical argument is evidence that an unembodied MIND with power to speak universe's into existence from nothing and simultaneously read the thoughts of everybody in that universe just popped into existence from nothing!

[@carlgranados7106]

What the title should say is "I Don't Have the Balls To Live Without a Fairy Tale to Give My Life Meaning and Be a Good Person". Being an Atheist doesn't require faith unlike religion. It's accepting life as it is, caring for others because it's the right thing to do, loving for it's own wonderful sake, and having the balls not to lie to ourselves in order to make ourselves feel better and superior.

[@philb4462]

I think this is a very effective presentation of arguments which vary from problematic to downright awful. I would encourage anybody to look at both sides of the argument not just the side you agree with. I have heard very convincing rebuttals to most of what Turek says here. I advise anybody not just to think these are good arguments until you have heard at least one counter to them. Only when you have heard both sides should you make up your mind. I think Turek is an impressive speaker and he's certainly given me some things to go and look up, but nothing here that I find remotely convincing regarding the existence of a god or the truth of Christianity.

[@MartinHindenes]

I've seen several rebuttals of the cosmological argument and the argument of fine tuning but they always seem to fall flat or require belief in unproven theses like a multiverse, string theory or a continously rebirthing universe.

[@philb4462]

@@MartinHindenes Then you haven't heard what I would consider the best rebuttals. I've actually not heard a rebuttal that relies on a multiverse. They can include these things as options but that's not the same thing as relying on them. My rebuttal doesn't use it at all. The thing is, at best, the cosmological argument and the argument from fine tuning can lead you to hypothesis that God did the things the proponent points out. A hypothesis is not evidence. You need evidence to demonstrate a hypothesis is correct and no theist I am aware of has ever put forward any actual evidence to support their hypotheses. Apologists present these arguments as evidence but they are merely assertions devoid of evidence to support them. What's worse is that to consider them at all, apologists have to use cherry-picking and circular reasoning.

[@ChicagoLights]

On the topic of Pharoh and God “hardening” his heart, could we also interpret it as symbolic in the sense that God didn’t physcially harden Pharohs heart but symbolically did through Moses? As in like each time God proved Himself through the actions of Moses (The staff turning to snake, the water turning to blood, etc.), Pharoh saw it and got upset and didn’t want to believe in the God of Israel therefore symbolically God hardened Pharohs heart even though not physcially? I think that’s a good explanation for the reasoning why it’s phrased like that. And the choice of words would be what Frank Turek said about the heart being heavier than a feather.

Maybe you should ask why the Pharoah rejected God and reject Him over and over again. Ever tried to tell a know it all teenager what they are to do? When you oppose another person's will their hearts are hardened in a sense that they don't want you telling them what they should do!

[@Random_Art822]

Am a Christian but to explain things from the view of an atheist psychologically I think their lack of belief in God stems from A. The evolution of the world from science without the help of a supernatural encounter (at least that's what they think)...or B. The sense of free will they get knowing that they could live life as they wish without the judgement of a higher being....I think for the most part it has more to do with B than A because a lot of religious countries are also advanced with medicine and science but they still believe in God. B is the main reason for their lack of belief ...and I get it. Take for instance a kid who's parents just won't let him do anything fun.. it really bums the kid out and sometimes he d wish he wants or has no parents either way u wanna put it. in actual sense he needs them..just like God we don't want God... because of his judgement...but we need him. I don't know if that makes sense and why do need him? Because we need a standard for morality..and don't tell me why humans can't be a standard for morality... that's because we are humans with opinions you tell me yours I tell you mine. Humans cant be a standard for morality. In summary of this God does exist.... even the atheist has it just at the back of his mind deep within his mind he knows that According to his beliefs 95% of the time there might be not a proof of God's existence ...but then they know that maybe just maybe there a could be that 5% chance that God does...but then again that's the Whole point of God's glory to make that 5% counts in regards to the 95%....I mean he shows up when we least expect he doesn't need to prove his existence anymore than a boy needs to prove his a boy or a girl needs to prove she s a girl...his essence alone speaks of him.

Hello. I am an atheist. I define atheism as suspending any acknowledgement as to the existence of gods until sufficient credible evidence can be presented. My position is that *_I have no good reason to acknowledge the existence of gods._* And here is the evidence I must consider when evaluating the claim by theists and as to why I currently hold to such a position. 1. I personally have never observed a god. 2. I have never encountered a person whom has claimed to have observed a god. 3. I know of no accounts of persons claiming to have observed a god that were willing or able to demonstrate or verify their observation for authenticity, accuracy, or validity. 4. I have never been presented a valid logical argument which also employed sound premises that lead deductively to a conclusion that a god(s) exists. 5. Of the 46 logical syllogisms I have encountered arguing for the existence of a god(s), I have found all to contain multiple fallacious or unsubstantiated premises. 6. I have never observed a phenomenon in which the existence of a god was a necessary antecedent for the known or probable explanation for the causation of that phenomenon. 7. Several proposed (and generally accepted) explanations for observable phenomena that were previously based on the agency of a god(s), have subsequently been replaced with rational, natural explanations, each substantiated with evidence that excluded the agency of a god(s). I have never encountered _vice versa._ 8. I have never experienced the presence of a god through intercession of angels, divine revelation, the miraculous act of divinity, or any occurrence of a supernatural event. 9. Every phenomenon that I have ever observed has *_emerged_* from necessary and sufficient antecedents over time without exception. In other words, I have never observed a phenomenon (entity, process, object, event, process, substance, system, or being) that was created _ex nihilo_ - that is instantaneously came into existence by the solitary volition of a deity. 10. All claims of a supernatural or divine nature that I have encountered have either been refuted to my satisfaction, or do not present as falsifiable. ALL of these facts lead me to the only rational conclusion that concurs with the realities I have been presented - and that is the fact that there is *_no good reason_* for me to acknowledge the existence of a god. I have heard often that atheism is the denial of the Abrahamic god. But denial is the active rejection of a substantiated fact once credible evidence has been presented. Atheism is simply withholding any acknowledgement until sufficient credible evidence is introduced. *_It is natural, rational, and prudent to be skeptical of unsubstatiated claims, especially extraordinary ones._* I welcome any cordial response. Peace.

With that being said, when Yah created everything, everything was at its mature growth with the information in dna to then grown and reproduce at His desired rate. Also the word day that was used in Hebrew was Yom, which represented a 24 hour day. Lastly, we only know the round trip speed of light, not the direct speed.

Dr. Turek says that he thinks some of these denominations are good because people like to worship differently. "For ye are yet carnal: for whereas there is among you envying, and strife, and divisions, are ye not carnal, and walk as men? 1Co 3:4 For while one saith, I am of Paul; and another, I am of Apollos; are ye not carnal?" and "Now I beseech you, brethren, by the name of our Lord Jesus Christ, that ye all speak the same thing, and that there be no divisions among you; but that ye be perfectly joined together in the same mind and in the same judgment. 1Co 1:11 For it hath been declared unto me of you, my brethren, by them which are of the house of Chloe, that there are contentions among you. 1Co 1:12 Now this I say, that every one of you saith, I am of Paul; and I of Apollos; and I of Cephas; and I of Christ. 1Co 1:13 Is Christ divided? was Paul crucified for you? or were ye baptized in the name of Paul?" also "For first of all, when ye come together in the church, I hear that there be divisions among you; and I partly believe it. 1Co 11:19 For there must be also heresies among you, that they which are approved may be made manifest among you." You see here that the only good division is one that comes in accordance with the bible and against heresy. If you then have a division that is according to mere carnality, that is not good for either and is not the sort of division God wants. If the division is to protect the purity of the church, that is good for those who are not going astray, but bad for those they are being forced to separate from. You don't get a good division that is an improvement on that unity for both groups. God wishes for unity in His people, but not at the expense of right doctrine or failing to purge the church of evil men who refuse to repent. It disturbed me that Dr. Turek said this.

This has nothing to do with the video but please listen if you want to otherwise leave it alone and ignore it. Hello my name is Justin and I'm a fellow Christian and Apologist but I'm also a college student. I'm not a closed minded Theist as I have nothing against Atheists or unbelievers as I speak to them often to understand their reasons for unbelief but we as Christians are convinced of God's Existence due to many real factors). I'm not trying to convert anyone or convince anyone to become Christians as that's The Holy Spirit's job to help people believe but only explain why I believe in Jesus Christ. There's actually evidence of God's Existence in Christianity. First of all there's proof that Jesus of Nazareth existed in history since the writings of Tacitus, Josephus Flavius, Pliny the younger and other historical documents prove that He was living two thousand years ago that even scholars both religious and Atheists agree with historically speaking but not that He's The Divine Son of God because obviously they don't. I'm going to give you historical and archeological evidence for God's Existence as The Scriptures have prophecies that predate the events recorded in them by several millennia including Matthew, Hosea and Zechariah which prophesy accurately of the people of Israel becoming a nation again after over 1900 years of being scattered around the nations since the destruction of the Temple in Jerusalem in 70 A.D. spoken of by Christ in Matthew 23:29-24:3 and returning to their homeland after The Holocaust with Jerusalem as their capital in 1948 exactly as Jesus The Christ said. The prophets including Daniel spoke of the time where several world empires would arise and fall including the Babylonian kingdom, Medes and Persians, Roman Empire, and Saladin and the Muslims which went in consecutive order for the past few millennia. The people of Israel becoming a nation after The Holocaust in 1948 (ironically the melting point of gold as God compares Israel to gold that's tested in fire in Zechariah 13:8 and Jeremiah 16:15) exactly how Jesus The Christ said would happen since God us everything to come in The Scriptures and not just because people were working towards as Atheists claim which are impossible for any regular man to predict. Just before anyone says Christianity is a white man's religion made to oppress blacks during slavery you obviously aren't aware that the first Christians were Jews in The Middle East and that Christianity just like any religion can be used by evil and corrupt people to oppress others but you forget that the first Abolitionists/Civil Rights activists were Christians who sought to abolish slavery, racism, segregation, injustice and prejudice throughout American history. Jesus The Christ loves you enough not to give you what we all deserve which is God's Wrath by His Own Blood. Charles Darwin didn't originally come up with The Theory of Evolution over 200 years ago as it is mentioned in the writings of Ancient Greeks who believed in Demons that gave knowledge to philosophers. Evolution makes no sense when nothing has evolved after thousands of years of human history and supposedly the first creature came from primordial sludge several millions of years ago funny how they won't believe that God an Eternal Almighty Spirit Being created us from the Earth) which came from a supermassive expansion of matter at high temperature that inexplicably created everything in the known universe that supposedly came from nothing billions of years ago. How did the organs evolve before there were bones, skin, substance and how did any creatures see before eyes evolved? I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" I've studied evolution and abiogenesis in the past and read Darwin's " Origin of The Species" and I'm not convinced of but not macro or micro Evolution because there's no evidence of it nor clear observable examples of it where living creatures evolve into other kinds of species plus the fact that fossils don't show evidence of evolution and genetic entropy rules out evolution. The question begs how did two genders evolve from a common ancestor with a perfectly hospitable and sustainable environment with breathable oxygen and resources to survive on inexplicably? Atheists have the burden of proof to explain how everything came to be and why our existence is possible without the Existence of God from an godless perspective just as Christians have to provide evidence of God's Existence and the validity of His Word. Evolution requires life to already exist in order to take any effect in living organisms so it doesn't account for the existence of Life and reality. Also evolution is impossible because it goes against The Law of entropy and the second Law of thermodynamics because evolution makes things better whereas nothing continues to get better but decays and turns to absolute destruction in the end. Mark Ridley an Evolutionist said "No evolutionist whether gradualist or punctuationist uses the fossil record as evidence in favor of The Theory of Darwinian Evolution as opposed to special Creation". God's Existence is made perfectly known and observable in the universe as demonstrated in His Handiwork in the intelligently designed manner that Creation was made, human consciences and consciousness historical and archaeological evidence of God's Word being valid history, fulfillment of Bible Prophecies God in His Holiness and Righteousness could give us what we deserve in Hell for our since but He's merciful to give us free will to choose to accept or reject His gift of salvation by grace through faith in His Son Jesus. I don't mean this is any condescending manner but if you'd like to discuss The Scriptures with me or have me listen to your view on anything my instagram account is Savage Christian Kombatant.

Hell does not now exist (all the dead are asleep except a very few, e.g. Moses and those resurrected when Jesus died). There will be a hell when Jesus returns the THIRD time to Earth. The unrighteous dead will be resurrected and immediately destroyed by fire (including Satan and the fallen angels). Hell is a brief moment (maybe a few days at most?) when all unrighteousness will be burned up, totally annihilated. God is love and just, so He cannot punish people eternally for sins they committed in this brief lifetime.
