I just left an innocent comment on a Michael Knowles talk ( can’t remember who he was with) saying I was an atheist & just believed in treating everyone as I would like to be treated. The responses came in thick & fast from Christians. I found it disconcerting that people don’t understand their beliefs are not mine. There was an underlying aggressive desperation to get me to try to have their faith. I do not believe but I have never said to a religious person you should not believe. Is it a form of Stockholm Syndrome they have? Our closest friends became born again after marriage problems but we never discussed it. They were our closest friends until sadly, they both died in their 50s. I do believe that the promise of a wonderful afterlife is the most compelling factor in religions.

[@corneliahanimann2173]

Well I don't think stockhold syndrome is actually a scientific thing, it is an observed phenomenon, but not something that actually gets real research on it. I would compare it more to a sunk cost fallacy, but not in terms of financial investmemt, but emotional investment. You spend so much time of your life making up excuses for why bad things happen, you accept on a deeper level, that there is an afterlife, so once you already came to accept so much, you tendnto further seek excuses to believe, than to do the reasonable turn around because so much emotional weight has already gone down the religion drain.

It is a statistical reality that the VAST majority of Christians were indoctrinated into their beliefs as children. (During my own brief time in church leadership, there was almost a constant crisis mode to bring the children in a quickly as possible before they became old enough to question what they were being taught.) Today, as adults, and having lived in an openly majority Christian culture, many Christians find the very thought of atheists abhorrent. Remember, they are taught before they are old enough to be skeptical they if they even THINK doubtful thoughts, they risk eternal damnation. I realize that Christians often like to lean on the image of superior morality and godly love and so forth, but that is some serious mind control!

[@discovery_uncharted]

It’s important to recognize that philosophical debates, such as those involving Matt Dillahunty, often center on arguments and counterarguments rather than definitive proof or disproof of God’s existence. Dillahunty’s main approach tends to rely on a lack of evidence argument (i.e., the claim that there’s insufficient evidence to justify belief in God). While this can be a compelling stance for some, it doesn’t necessarily “destroy” the concept of God, nor does it adequately address the positive evidence many point to for God’s existence. Here are a few reasons why his arguments may fall short and why belief in God remains reasonable: 1. The Universe’s Existence and Fine-Tuning: • The existence of the universe itself points to something beyond natural explanations. The fine-tuning of the universe for life-laws of physics, constants like gravity, etc.-suggests design rather than random chance. Prominent physicists like Paul Davies and others have acknowledged that fine-tuning requires an explanation that transcends naturalism. If the constants of physics were off by even a tiny fraction, life would be impossible. This suggests purpose and intelligence behind creation. 2. The Origin of Moral Values: • Without God, objective moral values and duties become difficult to ground. Dillahunty often argues for secular morality, but secular frameworks struggle to provide a foundation for why certain things (like murder or theft) are truly “wrong” beyond subjective preferences or societal consensus. Theism offers an objective grounding in God’s nature as the standard of goodness. 3. Historical Evidence for Jesus Christ: • The historical resurrection of Jesus is one of the most compelling pieces of evidence for God. Scholars across the spectrum agree on certain historical facts: Jesus lived, was crucified, and his followers claimed he rose from the dead. The empty tomb, the transformation of the disciples, and the explosion of Christianity all point to an event that defies natural explanation. If the resurrection happened, it validates Jesus’ claim to be God and offers strong evidence for His existence. 4. Experiential Evidence: • Millions of people across cultures and centuries have experienced God in personal, transformative ways. While this may not satisfy Dillahunty’s demand for empirical evidence, it is nonetheless real to those who experience it. Testimonies of changed lives, miraculous healings, and profound peace often align with belief in God. Dillahunty’s arguments often dismiss these points or rely on naturalistic assumptions that are themselves unproven. His stance does not account for all of reality, including the spiritual, philosophical, and experiential dimensions of human life. Ultimately, whether one accepts the evidence for God depends on their willingness to look beyond materialistic explanations.

[@eddieheron1939]

Getting off on those 3 points to discuss: A>The Universe >Why are we here >What happens when we die :- are all literally unknowns - perhaps you chose them, since it ‘lets’ you blab on about what is basically religion, essentially concluding NOTHING. On the topic of Abortion, I’m the father of 5 girls, 3 planned pregnancies and a ‘surprise’ that turned out identical twins. When the ‘4th’ was realised, we had accommodation, savings, employment and a health care system (United Kingdom) where there were no practical concerns. When it was realised there were twins, it went from a very minor disappointment - we thought we were over that phase in life, enjoying the 3 we had, to becoming a literal source of hilarity 😅 But, had we been e.g. Americans, and we’d already been in a marginal state of existence, struggling to feed, cloth, educate our 3, with literal fear of anything accidental or health situation impacting us, an unplanned pregnancy may well have initiated a State Of Panic - then TWINS - yikes! !! We can see ones ‘priorities’ may well have overriding degrees of relevance!

@ If you listen to likes of Lawrence Krauss, Brian Cox, Neil deGrasse Tyson, they’ll detail the Universe pretty much all expanding with an increased rate such that every other Galaxy will venture beyond where the light from them will never be seen from here. When I say ‘here’, our sun will burn out in another 4-5 billion years. Even the finally remaining Black Holes will evaporate by way of Hawking Radiation, though that will take actual Trillions of years - to reference this 3rd rock orbit time reference.

[@thedaemonator3244]

I think that the fact that we don't know the origin of the universe, whether and what meaning life has, and whether something exists after life - or more specifically that we can demonstrate that religious claims about the answers to those questions are incorrect - is an especially damning piece of evidence against our religious beliefs.

[@randybaker6042]

Step right up Matt or anyone else wanting to take up the mantle. Believers aren't all the same. Why play with the easy fish? Matt's first gotcha moment (and he did look like quite pleased) was the reference to believers encroaching on the civil realm. Trying to pass legislation. If he played that game with me, I would laughed. I would have told him that it was Puritan minister (certainly a believer) in 1600's America who established the first society on the planet specifically based on separation of religion and civil affairs. And we're talking an original colony that became a state. In 1600's America, over a century before the glorious founding fathers. One of the reasons that Puritans minister was threatened with imprisonment and banishment was because he was saying atheists belonged in the government. 1600's Puritan America. Now of course, the force he was up against were his fellow Puritans. The Puritans in the original colonies were as divided as it gets, to the tune of imprisonment, banishment and even execution. I'm sure Matt and all the rest of the atheists on the planet would have established the first society on the planet based on separation of religion and civil affairs, but sadly, there weren't enough of them to have such impact on the world stage. That Puritan minister also said no person could claim authority over interpretation of scripture. So Matt, explain to the class exactly what impact separation of religion and civil affairs along with teaching no person can claim authority over interpretation of scripture has on the bulk of your arguments. You're the enlightened one? A modern guy? Again, we're talking enough Puritans, Quakers, Jews and Atheists to make up one of the original chartered American colonies 400 years ago. They were also opposed to the taking of the native peoples lands and slavery and actively tried to do something about both. So Matt and all your like-minded, gallant warriors against religious encroachment into the civil and social realms.....gather round and welcome to the party. We believers who have been standing opposed to religious encroachment into the civil and social realms and who have been at the forefront of every single advancement in human rights in American history welcome you to the party. We don't care if you believe in gods or not. What we do care about is if you want to live in a pluralist society that attempts to allow individual liberty of conscience for everyone. We understand your frustration with believers who operate under authoritative interpretation of scripture under the auspices of divine inspiration. They imprisoned, banished and executed my kind, much more that your kind. But you are constantly arguing with the easy fish. The theist/atheist debate doesn't have to have anything to do with religion. And I can tell you right now, you are welcome to discuss it with me anytime (it's no really a debate), but I have to warn you ahead of time, what I believe in is the ultimate cheat when it comes to argument. I believe in the ultimate creator. I make no claims of proof or that there has to be one. It's simply what I believe in. I have my reasons and the word reason can be taken literally. But there is no argument against the ultimate creator concept. A person could claim there is one and another person could claim there is not but neither can lay stake to those claims. Anyway, your first gotcha moment in the video obviously does not apply because of documented history.

Hi Kenneth. There is a difference between evidence that you don’t accept, and no evidence. Of course there are many kinds of evidence for many religions, but one is free to evaluate such evidence as too weak, or unreasonable, to accept. For example, Dillahunty generally refuses to consider mathematical ’arguments’ for any deity. It’s just a choice about rejecting evidence. Could there be an absolutely correct proposition for which there is no evidence that you will accept?? [The answer to this is easy for anyone who has been around humans much.]

That is a silly assessment because it moves the burden of proof to Saint Matt D. I am sure you have such convincing evidence that St Matt D will accept it.

[@toreoft]

Matt Dillahunty's argumentation is not fundamental, because he refers to the social; what people say, what people, what people think mean and as a means of power, different religions, etc. Totally irrelevant. The FUNDAMENTAL question is: Is there a creator of all that is visible - the Ununiverse? And the answer is: What is created never makes the creator directly visible, as a carpenter is not directly visible in the chair he made. But the existence of a chair indirectly indicates a carpenter. Observable evidence for a Creator or Generator behind the Universe cannot ever exist, because if we got such a thing, it would disprove what it tried to prove. It would be similar to saying that the carpenter IS the chair that he made. The demand for such kind of observable evidence is a self-reference problem, and can therefore never be resolved. Proof of a Creator is not accessible with observation, because a generator is always different from the generated: So when the generated is the observable, then hence the generator is unobservable. And additionally an object cannot create itself, because then it would already have existed when it was created. So therefore Reality and its objects have a Creator.

Science doesn't care what you believe or not! 😂 Science and superstition are binary words. End of debate. 😊

[@A15fifteen]

Ahhh yes Mr. Matt D. It was a little over a year ago that we was wrecked by Mr. Andrew Wilson. Wonder if he is still butt hurt. I recommend checking it out. Matt didn’t stand a chance, and he knew it, which is why he of all people raged quit, ha!

[@valerielhw]

Well, Matt, I break your stereotypical mold. I consider myself an _atheist_ in regards to the Biblical God and an _agnostic_ in regards to whether there is some other type of God. I am pro-life for _scientific and ethical reasons,_ but I am most definitely NOT a one-issue voter. Even though I strongly oppose unrestricted abortion, I will vote for pro-legal abortion candidates if they support universal healthcare and other social safety nets.

[@sunyata4974]

That is a shallow understanding of science and religion. Science can only seek falsifiable relative truth, while religion seeks unfalsifiable absolute truth. It is foolhardy to lop off absolute truth! Religion provides reason and framework for science. Evidence of God or ultimate reality is everywhere. It is the fundamental substance of the universe. Citing bad practice doesn't invalidate the principle. Not everything that counts can be counted.

Matt Dillahunty is the epitome of the atheistic shrug where he is unable to offer any answers, he can only drill into other people's answers. And that gets us nowhere.

[@Glasschin2.0]

Because the burden of proof is on the person making the claim. It’s the theist job to prove a God.

[@KendalSmithy]

​@@Glasschin2.0 That's what they all say. The theist doesn't have to prove anything because the evidence is blindingly obvious - our existence. It's the atheist's job (burden) to prove that the universe doesn't have a creator but that it created itself.

[@Marquisla]

⁠@@KendalSmithyyou can say it’s blindingly obvious but it’s SOOOO not obvious. If gods existence were obvious nobody would question it, that’s the whole point. Even most christian apologists will say god is hidden, and that’s apparently the point of faith. There’s no having “faith” in something you already know to be true, knowledge trumps faith. If you don’t know god exists but you have faith, then it isn’t obvious god exists, you just have some subtle intuition that makes you think he exists. The atheist standpoint ISNT that God doesn’t exist, it’s that they’re unconvinced as to the existence or nonexistence of God. Atheists admit that they don’t know god does or doesnt exist, but there are many moral and logical contradictions in the Bible which suggest “the christian version” of God doesn’t exist, although some kind of god may. Also many people consider god “to be” the universe, and you have no explanation as to how god came into being, the burden of proof is on you to prove god exists and created everything, how could the burden of proof not be on you? You’re the one who actually has a set belief, I’m the one who’s keeping an open mind. Atheist is a broad term that includes both agnostics and anti-theists, most atheists I know are agnostic, Dillahuntt is agnostic (although tbf Dillahunty does make some anti-theist claims without evidence on occasion but not in this video).

[@KendalSmithy]

@@Marquisla The hiddenness of God is inevitable if the Bible is true. Let's try to imagine if God, in His immense power and glory, really was obvious and real to all of humanity. What would our position be? Would we still be free agents, able to make our own decisions and choices? I don't think so. Therefore God must hide Himself and allow us the ultimate free choice if, as the Bible claims, He created us in 'His own image' - with freedom of thought, creativeness, the ability to make decisions and choices, even if they're unwise and harmful, etc etc. Regarding the so-called 'problems' with the Bible, the vast majority can be explained or rationalised. And the moral objections are flawed because, in the absence of an ultimate moral rule maker, morality is ultimately subjective, which means those objections are non-sequitur.

If Matt can destroy the resurrection of Jesus Christ he has won but unfortunately 3 days in atomb with 3days of decay surrounding Jesus Body he rose from death and ascended back into Heaven 40 days later if he can show this did not Happen Historically he has won has anyone disproved the resurrection did not Happen? i think not it happened ( Historically the eyewitnesses were not liars) and he is wrong, and hells firewood will be his end.

Of course that deserves a thumbs up. Someone has been doing their bible homework. ❤⭐⭐⭐💜 OK ??? Now get yourself a PhD in physics, philosophy, psychology, sociology or some other field of your choice. Then you can quote 1 Corinthians 13:2. *If I have the gift of prophecy and know all mysteries and all knowledge, and if I have all faith so as to remove mountains, but do not have love, I am nothing.* . . . I quite often feel like nothing.
