I agree that the arguments here aren’t very in depth, but they’re not trying to be. All these atheists are acting like they were promised some six hour thesis about philosophy, theology and metaphysics from a learned scholar. In reality it’s just a meme that was probably more so intended to make his fellow Christians laugh than to piss off atheists. A meme that atheists have and do use all the time.

@@calebmills6051 God created Adam and Eve to be perfect and made in his image. But he kept things like the knowledge of good and evil from them (hence the tree). In this state they could exist freely without temptation to do evil because they were not aware of it. By eating from the tree humans discovered the nature of evil and temptation (therefore sin). So God kicked them out. My assumption would be that God saw the fall of man and that the overarching narrative of the Bible is that humans must regain that. Since humanity was made in God's image, it leads me to believe humanity was God's pet project. This journey of redemption therefore must be undertaken willfully by humans to be like God. I'm an atheist but that's my interpretation of the narrative and how I would sell it if I was Christian This common Christian image of God as absolute perfection without flaw is contradicted heavily by the Bible itself and several alternative interpretations have been forwarded throughout history. It's pretty interesting really.

depends on what you think happens after death. if you believe there is a god, there is an afterlife where there is fairness. your grandfather suffered, but then could have experienced a joy of being free from pain. death isn't such a terrible thing if you believe in a god, but if you don't believe in a god, you have to face the cold harsh realities of genetics and nature. he lived a good life, and died a terrible death and that's it? i would say that's more upsetting than to think he was taken by a god who knows how good and loved he was. it's not about who deserves what, it's how do you choose to live life? bitterly and walking the world alone, or believing there is a higher power beyond this life

This is from the Old Testament. This shows God's will for progressiveness. For context, slavery was accepted as a normal practice in ancient society (but this is not an endorsement of slavery);, and God was showing people its time for progressiveness by regulating social behavior and justice. Morality progresses through time. The New Testament, particularly through the teachings of Jesus and the apostles, emphasizes love, equality, and justice, which surpass the Old Testament regulations.
@tigrederd29 күн бұрын
Consider yourself for the sake of the argument, that you are a Christian slave. God has put in the bible that your master cannot kill you. This was written to give you hope and survival under harshness of slavery that can happen (or might happen, hopefully never again) to anybody. This verse wasn't really meant for the slave owner, it is meant for the slave. It was written to provide solace that there are laws that offer you, the slave, protection. If the master kills you, they will be punished. Finally, New Testament obviously does not endorse slavery. "So in everything, do to others what you would have them do to you" (Matthew 7:12) Why become a slave owner? Do you want to become a slave?

@@nate_mccallisteri am an atheist, and i agree that it is a bad response, but it is not doublespeak. what he's arguing is that "good" is god's will, like a vase whose mold conforms to the appearance and functions of god's nature. then "evil" is just the distortion of god's will and nature, so a vase whose appearance and function is distorted. but i'd argue it is a bad argument. since man himself, built on the image of god, creates appearance and function, then it is impossible to distinguish god's will from man's will. man is as much creator of worth as god, so either 1. god has given up all will to man, and therefore his judgement has become irrelevant (thus god does not exist in practice) or 2. god does not exist at all. if we cannot prove 1 then 2 proves itself either way.

@clash15054 ай бұрын
The religious beliefs of Adolf Hitler, dictator of Nazi Germany from 1933 to 1945, have been a matter of debate. During the beginning of his political life, Hitler publicly expressed favorable opinions towards Christianity, but later totally rejected it. Most historians describe his later posture as adversarial to organized Christianity and established Christian denominations. Hitler was born to a practicing Catholic mother, Klara Hitler, and was baptized in the Roman Catholic Church; his father, Alois Hitler, was a free-thinker and skeptical of the Catholic Church. In 1904, he was confirmed at the Roman Catholic Cathedral in Linz, Austria, where the family lived. According to John Willard Toland, witnesses indicate that Hitler’s confirmation sponsor had to "drag the words out of him … almost as though the whole confirmation was repugnant to him."
@sinkorswimstars4 ай бұрын
It's clear that Hitler manipulated Christian beliefs to support his worldview. As the above commenter mentioned, there is really nothing in Hitler's life that indicates a practicing Christian. Even per Wikipedia, and it's cited sources, "Hitler and the Nazi party promoted "Positive Christianity",[41] a movement which rejected most traditional Christian doctrines such as the divinity of Jesus, as well as Jewish elements such as the Old Testament.[42][43] " this is certainly NOT Christianity, and is absolutely heretical. The moment he rejects Jesus' divinity, which is a tenet of all basically all true Christian forms, with their beliefs outlined in the Nicene Creed (council of Nicea), then you cannot consider them as "Christians". Now, to claim Hitler as "atheist" is ambiguous. But again, you can see he would schrewdly approach religion, and use what fits best, he was pragmatic. Here's a quote for you: "BBC historian Laurence Rees characterises Hitler's relationship to religion as one of opportunism and pragmatism: "his relationship in public to Christianity - indeed his relationship to religion in general - was opportunistic. There is no evidence that Hitler himself, in his personal life, ever expressed any individual belief in the basic tenets of the Christian church".[44]" Truly ask yourself, was Hitler a deist? Very well could have been. Was he secular? Agnostic or atheist, that just manipulated religious teaching and customs to get what he wanted? Very well could have. But we don't know, clearly. But with his apparent disdain for Catholicism and other aspects of Judeo-Christian culture, it seems like this may have been the case. And to end off on this quote: "The historian Geoffrey Blainey wrote that Hitler courted and benefited from fear among German Christians of militant Communist atheism.[189] "The aggressive spread of atheism in the Soviet Union alarmed many German Christians", wrote Blainey, and with the National Socialists becoming the main opponent of Communism in Germany: "[Hitler] himself saw Christianity as a temporary ally, for in his opinion 'one is either a Christian or a German'. To be both was impossible."[189]"

Other than the blatant cherry picking, it refutes nothing and makes the implication that Scandinavia would be in the same place as China without Christianity.

NO evil = no free will. Only having one option (to do good) is the same has having no options. No freedom. For humans to be truly free, they must have not only seen evil, but experienced it to truly understand its nature and in order to truly appreciate the good. The Buddha began his path to enlightened because he went outside of his palace and saw the evils of poverty, disease, and crime. If he stayed inside his palace his whole life, and didn't experience any evil, he would never have evolved into an enlightened being who understands and appreciates the nature of the good. Its the same with Christianity. Had God not let Adam and Eve stray, they would've remain ignorant, and non-appreciative of what good is.

Because all sins cause harm to either yourself or other people. Lust- Causes you to start seeing people as objects, can get in the way of your life or in your friendships/relationships. Sloth-Laziness, self explainable Gluttony- not only are you being selfish by eating more then you need to but your stuffing your body with a bunch of unnecessary food, typically junk, causing harm to yourself. Wrath- self explainable, intense anger to a person usually doesn't lead to good stuff Envy- doing harm to yourself by not appreciating what you have Greed- self explainable Pride- Not as simple as just being proud of your accomplishment, instead it's a very extreme version of that. You believe that you need nothing else and that your one of the best. You end up getting a self centered attitude with pride

@@JohnDoe-nq5dt First of all, something cannot be "easy to answer" and "difficult to explain" at the same time, those are mutually contradictory. Second of all, I'm not sure what you're even talking about because there are no "atheist questions" in either of my posts. The initial claims from the video are: 1. Secular scholars don't 100% agree on every single thing, therefore all of their opinions are worthless. 2. Christians don't 100% agree on every single thing, but this is fine because they agree on the essentials. My first post is pointing out that saying both of these things at the same time makes you a hypocrite. CptDawner for some reason decides to reply with something I already mentioned, completely not understanding what I even said apparently, so I decided to point out that "we agree on the essentials" is not even true in the first place by listing various _Christian_ questions that Christians do not agree on. And according to the video's own logic, because this is the case, we can discard all Christian opinions. Thus, I don't know what "atheist questions" you're talking about. The only question _I_ asked was whether CptDawner actually read my post properly. If you'd like to actually have a proper conversation about the above issue, feel free to actually say something of substance. But popping in with "It's so easy to answer atheist questions, but I'm not going to because actually it's difficult to answer atheist questions," is just a waste of time.

While I (inner circle, regular Bible reader) can understand the meaning and context to most of the answers to each argument, I don't think the majority of "answers" really answered anything. It often just posited an opposing point, without sufficient supporting evidence. The answers with quotes from Church fathers and Bible quotes were the best responses. Every answer to each of these questions should tie back to those things in some way.

well i mean i guess he simply got that wrong lol but in Christian theology, the allowance of evil is intricately tied to the concept of free will, a fundamental aspect of human existence. God's plan involves granting individuals the freedom to make moral choices, even if some choose to engage in wrongdoing. The existence of evil, therefore, stems from the exercise of free will rather than a direct act of God. The redemptive narrative in Christianity underscores the possibility of transformation, forgiveness, and the ultimate triumph over evil through divine intervention and human choices aligned with God's will.

It will help you see which politicans are lying to get your vote and which are more trustable. If you're ever in an argument with someone, being aware of logical fallacies will massively help you. You may also notice how you unintentionally use logical fallacies from time to time without knowing it. After being aware of them, discussions will become easier and you may avoid to fall for lies or false arguments.

While you have a valid point yourself I do not think it qualifies to replace the original point, but could be layered onto it after the original is stated for reinforcement. I say this because numbers are very powerful and when you have a strong statistic to illustrate in favor of your stance you should absolutely use it (and have your source ready to share, which they will definitely ask for). 3% of wars being caused by Christianity means the rest of the world is the cause for 97%. That is an extremely condemning number and is impossible to justify by an atheist.

But I would say it is much more complex. Statistics is a complex topic, while the main reason for most of the wars in history might not be cited as religious, the governments involved might be religious, and the reasons for their political stances might be religious...I'm not saying it is. After all only 20% of the world identifies as non-believers... I believe, Take America in the Middle East, the reasons will not be cited as Christian or religious, but are committed to by a Christian nation(arguably at least). Now I dont know the stats cited here, but I doubt the remainder is secular or atheist causes necessarily. It's probably political, nationalistic, etc. This might be a black-and-white fallacy where just because it's not (directly) Christian doesn't mean it's automatically atheistic causes. You wanting to pin the rest of the 97% solely on atheists is like me pinning the American civil war on Christianity, just because most people involved were Christian (dont know if they actually were just making a point) as the war itself has nothing to with that, so that would be ridiculous, it's the same the other way around. Just because a war is not because of Christianity doesn't automatically make it because of atheism, or even if it is between atheists doesn't mean it's because of atheism. There are a plethora of reasons and stances. The main point atheists make regarding this I believe, is that Christian or religious people aren't inherently more moral or good people, not necessarily (although some atheists probably hold this point) that all wars are because of religion.
@definitelynotsarcasm5 ай бұрын
Additionally wars mostly happen either to gain resources or influence. To say "oh it was religion" misses the mark to me as an excuse would be used to start it. Honestly, even the crusades (at least some of them) were simply to stop the aggressive expansion of muslim powers into Europe.

I find it interesting how in this video, in response to the "Evolution disproves God" argument, you say that there have been religious thinkers in the past who have concluded that the Genesis story is not literal, but in a more recent video about heresies, you say that anyone claiming that the bible is not literal follows "liberalism" which is a heresy. So in order to answer the athiest argument, you had to use a heretical one. Again, very interesting.

psychology has shown that we tend to believe in just world, where justice generally prevails and people are eventually compensated for fortunes and misfortunes but this also means that we're prone to thinking that the unfortunate people must have done something to deserve their fate when study participants are asked to explain why there are poor people, raped victims, cancer patients, traffic accidents' survivors, people with congenital birth defects, natural disasters' victims they twisted facts, or invented reasons that people caused their misfortunes themselves... rather just being victims research suggests that this belief is a coping mechanism that derives from the belief in just world

I get that argument, but at that point all we are really arguing about is the question "Is there a divine entity of any kind at all", and you argue "yes there probably is because etc etc". And that is great, I find those arguments interesting, but like, thats not what i came here for. I came here for "okay why is christianity, specifically, right". If we agree that a divine entity exists, then its again the 4000 and 3999 gods question, to which basically all religions (christianity included) say "yeah okay uhhhh... we think *we* are right

"It's true that Hitler's public statements opposing atheism should not be given too much weight, since they obviously served Hitler's political purposes to tar political opponents. However, in his private monologues, he likewise rejected atheism, providing further evidence that this was indeed his personal conviction. Perhaps even more significantly, he had complete faith that Providence had chosen him to lead the German people to greatness. It's clear through his personal monologues that he rejected Atheism, but while confessing faith in an omnipotent being of some sort, however, Hitler denied we could know anything about it.

Nothing is good or bad, shit i realise that while im trying to defend gods existant im kinda going against it since god created hell for bad people and heaven for good people, well i guess its impossible to defend something made up by the church to make extra money and manipulate people n gain political power “Why does he let bad things happen at all?” we as humans are not capable of seeing beyond our own suffering, or others suffering, only god is able to see the bigger picture, in the end we cannot feel good in absence of suffering.

The argument isn't "Your geographical location influenced your belief, therefore your belief is false." The reason someone holds a belief has nothing to do with whether or not it is true. The argument is "If a god exists and reveals themself to all people, we would not expect geographical location to be the primary indicator for religious affiliation. Location _is_ the primary indicator for religious affiliation. Therefore such a god does not exist."
@PppPlyr23 ай бұрын
First of all, location is not the primary indicator for religious affiliation; there are a multitude of factors that may influence what someone believes, but it all comes down to what someone chooses to believe. If it wasn't so, we wouldn't have individuals or minority groups who go against the majority culture. Presenting one factor as the primary indicator for religious affiliation neglects the complexity of reasons for why people believe what they believe. Second, you're presenting a false dilemma: either everyone believes the same thing, or God doesn't exist. You're forgetting a third option. Yes, God has chosen to reveal Himself to all nations, either through Scripture, the human conscience, or the natural world. However, mankind still has the free will to reject God and create their own religions, because even though they don't want anything to do with the one true and living God, they cannot get rid of their need to believe in something. It would be akin to arguing that because there is a real Dollar, no counterfeit dollars could ever exist, but since we have counterfeit dollars, therefore there is no real Dollar. If anything, the existence of counterfeit dollars underscores the necessity for a real Dollar, because if there was no real Dollar, how would you know if it was counterfeit? You don't even need to use God to prove this. I bet that most people know that eating fast food is unhealthy and will kill you slowly if eaten excessively, yet they still do it. The problem is not that people don't have knowledge, but rather that you need to explain why people act a certain way in spite of what they know. TL;DR - False dilemma; even if God made Himself known 100%, people could still reject Him because of free will.

it's been so long since i found myself falling down the christian vs. atheist debate youtube rabbit hole, but now i remember why i climbed out in the first place - videos like this one that are just overflowing with contradictions, strawman arguments, logical fallacies, etc. etc.. so thanks for reminding me that i don't actually want to be here. 👍

While I do not think this video was a good one, nor am I even sure that there's a God, I want to point out that I don't think those two particular statements necessarily contradict each other. I've often heard God proposed as a being who, though beyond science in both capabilities and presence (for example existing on some other plane or in some non-physical form), can and does influence the material world by usage of these Godly abilities. For many consider God the creator, with ultimate influence over nature; not of it yet involved in it. You could consider an artist or a computer programmer as an example: not of the thing they create, certainly beyond it, but also with great ability to affect further outcomes should they so wish.

@Claire-tk4do I understand, but anything that affects the physical world can be tested, even if its ultimate origin is unknowable. After all, we don't know why the laws of the universe are what they are, but we can still measure them precisely. Or to use your programmer analogy, the faith-healing claim is that the we live in a programmer's simulation with code that says "if they worship me, I'll sometimes heal them miraculously". That claim is testable, even if the origin of the code isn't. And unsurprisingly, every time it's tested, it ends up being no better than random chance.

As a shameless atheist (or at least agnostic) scumbag who got this video in my recommended, here’s my live rebuttal to the first quarter of the arguments here, as I watch it: 1. This is true, but it’s not a rebuttal against atheism (that God doesn’t exist), it’s a rebuttal against anti-theism (that belief in God is a net negative on society). I don’t think religion is necessarily evil, I just don’t think it’s logically justified. 2. See number 1: I want counterarguments to atheism, not anti-theism. 3. You just completely ignored the point of the argument here, and that a lot of people AREN’T atheist because of birth: they were raised religious, but realized there was no justification for their beliefs when they became an adult. Meanwhile, by far the most common reason for belief in Christianity is because one’s friends and family are Christian: it’s a tradition, not a logically-reasoned belief. 4. Atheists can’t know whether a specific worldview is true, but they can reason it out through logical reasoning and a cause-and-effect approach to morality. Meanwhile, there’s no logical reason why someone would believe in one religion over the other: like I said, it’s a tradition, nothing more. 5. That’s not an explanation, it’s just an excuse: “Well of course you can’t prove that an angry old man created the world, the 2000 year old book I got this information from specifically said no one can prove his existence!” By that logic, you might as well believe in the Tooth Fairy. 6. Do you have any source for the possession claims, other than a book filled with anecdotal evidence from someone who has every reason to lie about this? And the evidence of NDEs being real experiences is, to put it lightly, highly inconsistent: some people seem to accurately remember small details, others don’t even come close. 7. What about the literal factual inconsistencies in the Bible, like how it describes Goliath dying in two completely different ways (a contradiction so egregious that most translations retcon the second death into being Goliath’s brother)? 8. I would take any claims of early Christian knowledge with a massive grain of salt: there is very little evidence that people like St. Ignatius ever actually met the apostles, let alone were able to attest to the Gospels actually being written by them. As it stands, by far the most reliable interpretation of the Gospels is that they were written a few decades to a century after the events they claim to describe, and likely based on at least a couple earlier manuscripts (hence the large amount of near-identical passages). 9. Just because there’s a lot of debate over how the Gospels altered the story of the historical Jesus, that doesn’t mean that the Gospels are a completely factual account of events that actually happened (an idea that’s highly unlikely, to say the least). 10. That’s not proof that Jesus was actually God, it’s just proof that the Gospels wrote Jesus as if he was the son of God. You might as well say that Mark Zuckerberg founded Facebook due to being rejected by his girlfriend, when the only evidence of that is how Aaron Sorkin wrote it in The Social Network. I’m gonna stop here: my mobile KZbin comment box can’t handle the wall of text I’m writing here, and I honestly don’t have the energy to write any more. Suffice it to say, if these are the brilliant arguments you’re starting off your hypothetical anti-atheist debate with, you need to find better arguments.

This is a tiktok level video and not an actual scholarly analysis. The claim atheist nations/leaders are the most murderous is insane. Many conflicts in history slaughtered 100% of their enemy. Just because more people existed in the 20th century isn't an argument for a higher rating on the murder scale.

Fellow atheist/agnostic scumbag here. I think the video and comments agreeing with its viewpoints are enlightening to read, but yeah, it's very hard to prove anything when it seems the two sides are drawing from very different bases of evidence. For instance, for atheists the Bible might not seem like a reliable source of information, while for some theists it might be irrefutable. Add to whether things are literal or metaphorical, and I find it's very hard to remain objective when objectivity itself is defined differently.
@dw3yn6935 ай бұрын
To 4 i would answer that you are wrong in there being no logical differences in religions. Theology is a real thing and the different branches of religion wager a real debate amongst themselves about who is interpreting the bible right. Wether you think jesus is the messiah or the nature of jesus soul the importance of muhammad and who his rightful successor was etc. it’s not just blind tradition but also a question who has the better arguments for their case and thus the resulting religious beliefs. To 5. Thats just the answer to the argument that science cant proof god. Are you saying he is misrepresenting the argument again ? Because the argument itself is refuted quite well by saying that science concerns and can only concern itself with the already existing material world. It can’t explain its ultimate origin

0:12 No one says that 0:24 That is just wrong. Hitler and Mao were religious. Hitler was a Pantheist. Mao spoke against religion in the form of the religious leaders using the faithful, not against god or belief itself. He saved many religious sanctuaries during the revolution, which would've otherwise been destroyed by the mob. 0:33 You completely fail your strawman. I can be/become an atheist anywhere - You can only become a christian where the word of christianity is spread. 0:40 1. Humanism is a religion 2. You don't need faith for a world view - Those are two different things. I don't need faith in anything to be a nihilist. 0:50 Yes, science only deals with stuff that exists... Your point? Science never 'disproves' anything as the burden of proof comes with the claim. Saying god doesn't exist isn't the claim that needs evidence. 1:15 I ain't paying 30€ for that book. 1:25 Okay let's list a couple, maybe you can explain them: How long does gods anger last for? Forever (Jer 17:4) or not forever (Micah 7:18) Were humans created before (Gen 2:18-19) or after (Gen 1:25-27) animals? How much did David pay? 50 (2 Sam 24:24) or 600 (1 Chr 21:25) shekels? 1:39 Another point that no sane human ever brought up as an argument 1:45 Now you just argued against the gospels? Okay? 2:07 Now he did claim that he was god (John 10:30) 2:40 What about James tho? Paul didn't really have anything to do with anything in the beginning. 2:50 As the bible isn't taking a clear stance you can make arguments for both side, but tbh even if the bible allows slavery... It has nothing to do with the argument itself. 3:10 same as before 3:35 Does that make him good? Because he gives and takes life? Idk, it also feels like it's failing the point. 4:00 Yes, people are more likely to become atheists with a higher standard of living. This happens everywhere, not only in christian societies. Also - Those countries aren't atheistic, they just aren't deeply christian and haven't been for hundreds of years. The rise of fall of those nations had nothing to do with their religiousness. 4:20 Well it is a good gotcha if someone is unprepared - But it's not an argument in any form, yes. 4:30 Please explain why. Why is a godly creator more likely than a random event. Mind you, before the big bang there was no such thing as time, so why is something happening in an infinite amount of time less likely than a creator just existing. 4:40 Not sure what morons says this, god is based on faith and science can't disprove faith. That is by definition not possible. Yes, the curiousity about god and nature lead to science. Yes, almost all centers of learning where held by theologians and the church. Doesn't proof anything tho, as it has nothing to do with the argument. 5:15 Why is there a why? Also -> If we don't know something then a lot of people will tell you that it's proof of god. It's always the point we fail to understand (yet) which is used as proof that some greater being (god) must(!) be behind it. 5:27 God is the creator of evil (Is 45:7) I cba to do all of them so from now on I'll just do those I feel like - If anyone takes issue tell me which one specifically to address. 6:08 Funny little thought experiment - But you can do that with science aswell and it's just as funny. It neither proves nor disproves anything. 6:27 Because he created it (Is 45:7) 6:37 Well back in the day you got people in line with fear. A bit more bs that I cba to react to 7:20 Yes, parts (like holidays) were taken from other religions. It helps people ease into it as they already know more about it. It wasn't a 1:1 copy of another religion tho. 7:30 Yes, you're completely right. Who are the idiots claiming that faith is the opposite of logic? It's on two different levels. 7:50 How old is the world? How does it work with such a small amount of time and why did it slow down so extremely? Also how big was Noahs Ark? 8:12 It took over a small part of the empire. One of which was Constantine who made it rather popular in the elite circles of the empire and Theodosius I. who crushed the pagan west and basically forced it to convert after the 394 battle of the frigidus. But yes, Christianity also had a major spread without war. 8:20 I will be honest - I've never heard anyone say this. That just doens't make any sense at all. 8:25 This is also a mood point, the amount of denominations neither proves nor disproves anything. 8:32 Yes, a guy named Jesus existed. Since we are there already... What about his brother? Anyone heard something from James recently? The church seems to have just gone with Paul the Roman after instead of James who was supposed to be the heir of the christian movement. 8:50 Well yes, that is what faith is about. Again anyone seriously trying to use this as an argument is a clown.
