Mehmet, you have to decide between the true God Who is Love and a god who is alone! You will never worship the true God Who is eternal Love, If you believe in a god of loneliness, who couldn't love anyone before creating the universe! If God needed to create anything in order to have a chance to love, then He would had been necessitous! God is not necessitous! God is the Eternal Life! You need to make a choice between Love and loneliness! I wish you Love for your Life!

[@tomshepperd3535]

@• Haha yes, fair enough. The universe is made with intent because of the fine-tuning of it. It's fine-tuned to support the mechanics of life. There is no rule that an electron has to exist, or a proton has to exist, or that gold has to have the properties of metal. On the flip side, the idea that something can come from nothing is preposterous and requires just as much faith to believe as one claims you need to have to believe in a creator. Or the religious belief that consciousness is just an illusion that sits on top of a chain reaction of mechanical processes. There is a chain reaction of mechanical processes, but quantum theory has already shown us that consciousness is not a result of this but instead is affected BY it. The chemical universe merely acts as a filter through which consciousness is able to experience and express itself.

I used to be an atheist and to believe that UPB is a valid system of universal, objective morality. So, everyone prefers to be alive (we ignore those who kill themselves) and to not be aggressed upon. I could agree to this. But why should I care about someone else's preference? They say, because that preference is universal. But why should I care about a preference being universal? How do I derive the "should" or "ought" of my behaviour from the fact that people seem to prefer not to be aggressed upon?

CS Lewis was an atheist as well and wrote about objective God morale law. I think you’ll relate to him on a personal level and you’ll appreciate the logic he displays within his books. I don’t write that articulate so I apologize.

[@calcifiedinnerbaldur]

Another question that is raised in the problematic Atheistic worldview (one among *many*) is how does finite matter (i.e. a human being to an Atheist) have access to objectivity? Finite matter can't have access to any form of objectivity, because that's self refuting. If finite matter can claim to have knowledge of objectivity, then they're claiming to have access to universal states of affairs. All they can do here is push the problem back a step, because if they're honest the logical follow up is that they must claim to have no knowledge of anything objective.

Thank you for these wonderfully articulated arguments Jan. I'm glad you mentioned Kant's Ding an sich, because I've tried to wrap my mind about it as I first heard of this theory from John Vervaeke. I believe Lewis addressed this in his book Miracles: If the feeling of certainty which we express by words like ”must be”, ”therefore” and ”since”, is a real perception of how things outside our own minds really must be, well and good. But if this certainty is merely a feeling in our own minds and not a genuine insight into realities beyond them, if it merely represents the way our minds happen to work, then we can have no knowledge. Unless human reasoning is valid, no science can be true. - C.S. Lewis God bless you!

And in a world of randomized transmutations and an infinite universe, somehow the stars just aligned. Aside from the obvious classification of species, one mathematical impossibility is nearly every macro-organism having symmetry and very little diversification in features. The perfectly identical pair of eyes on every macro-organism is one such example. And in a world where we also hold significant genetical similarity with bananas, fruit flies and chickens - we have no fossil records to indicate anything before the advanced eye that can render light into images.

@@HaqiqaSeeker So in essence, the worldview of Darwinism does not add up. And we are presented with the issue of an endless cycle of questions that eventually leads to nothing. It eventually leads to either the Big Bang or creationism. One comes from an intelligent mind that is already supernatural, therefore it has a reason to perform a supernatural feat. Meanwhile the other world has no spirituality or supernatural phenomena. So when nihilism and Darwinism is brought to its logical conclusion, the individual will eventually circle back with the rest of us and realize the same thing. In the beginning, it truly was God.

[@Samuele-hm2jv]

If you want to get his attention comment on newer videos cause this one is old

[@IkarusZmedieval]

The best debunking of atheism that I saw.

All of his reasons come down to personal incredulity.

Have you heard of a youtube channel called "Kill(ss)ing Asuka"? Dude made a bunch of videos supporting physicalism and went absolutely crazy.

[@jordanmcmillan9271]

Also something to add, what explosion in lived life experience has ever created anything? In my experience any "big bang" has resulted in utter destruction, but surely this explosion billions of years ago that no one has observed created all life as we know it... riiiiight...

Besides a communist society, I can't think of a society in history that didn't believe in some kind of deity.

Knowing nothing about philosophy, I've always thought Neil DeGrasse Tyson was full of it.🙄

This is why you are not an atheist the same reasons why i am not. I have also debated with lots of atheists over the years. They do not give any good reasons to be one, or to leave faith in Christ. The opposite tends to happen, once you get serious in the debate the atheist draws out a hypothetical superficial belief in God, and then shuns it.

How can you establish logic absolutes are correct if you dont have access to absolute knowledge?

Comment for a 3 year old video lol I adressed an atheist with the book of ecclesiastes I got him with the argument that if he things all things are meaningless then he thinks their is nothing beyond human consciousness and cognitive thought, Remember Solomon says all is vanity, all is meaningless and repetitive what is done shall be done again their is nothing new under the sun. I pointed to all forms of philosophy I knew, the only argument he responded to positively was the scriptures, yet he didn't want to adress the issue of spiritual blindness not being born again and seeing the light for himself it was like he feared being wrong. The atheist point is basically nothing is true everything permitted except God you have to prove that! Well satan has his puppets just like God has servants too, many of them won't admit they're just anti everything and rebels without a cause and they need to face the truth adress the big question and just talk it out with God and make peace with him. Many have near death experiences before then. My response wasn't logical or emotional but reasonable I told this guy "I can't explain to someone that's blind. Why would I risk my eternity just to prove God is real when it would just harden your heart more?" Well skepticism has definitely shown us that it's serving destruction they literally exist because they think when babylon crumbles and the chips are down they're going to be made the new priests of the new system, if they studied the history of Russia and saw what happens to the political activists and prostitutes for social justice and Marxism, they'd abandon it and attack the puppet masters but by then it's too late. Sadly the devil doesn't keep promises, and neither does this world keep anything sacred. They'll be lined up against the wall and shot along with homosexuals Trans activists etc. Back to the atheist I spoke to, I told him what he would do to a Nihilist like Kefka from final fantasy 6 he said he would kill him. He figured out the logical end for skepticism and atheism, but doesn't see it, Unfortunately. The argument never ends for these types they have to evolve like nietzsche said or be destroyed by their own emptiness and despair. I'm not an atheist because I'm not blind, I've seen the light and God's truth is brighter then all the lies of this world. Facing the truth that life is more then just Material gain. My best life is in eternity when I go home to be with God forever and ever.

An established mindset is a spiritual remembrance, it comes from personal beliefs and connection to the Most High. Jesus saves and supports those who wants Him.

Im not an atheist because i believe an ultimate justice exists in the afterlife forever

[@lucianmacandrew1001]

So in other words, you believe God because you want God to exist, since otherwise, it would not be fair. Not really an argument.

[@JoeHinojosa-ph8yw]

@@lucianmacandrew1001 Oh yes I DO WANT ULTIMATE JUSTICE TO PREVAIL by an Omnipotent, Omnibenevolent Agent ie God. But this universal ideal maybe hard wired into our brains . As a Christian mystic I've had many transcendent experiences. Psychologically these could be explained away as the power of the mind to contrive visions of deity. But not all experiences. One time to prevent a car accident my car was stopped and went backwards all by itself. I didn't touch anything. Hard to attribute it to just psychological self manifestation. I'm not arguing with you. Maybe I'm arguing to myself because I am the only witness.

[@lucianmacandrew1001]

@@JoeHinojosa-ph8yw No, but you could attribute it to something being wrong with your car. There are many examples on COPS of cars starting to drive by themselves. My father drove of the road, out of the forests came 4 trolls, and lifted the car out of the forest. Now, he know what he saw, but he still does not believe in trolls, he believe there must have been a natural explanation.

[@georgedoyle2487]

(Relativism, strictly reductive materialism, militant atheism or philosophical naturalism): “The belief that there was “nothing”, and nothing didn’t really mean “nothing” as there was no such thing as meaning, and then nothing much happened to nothing except nothing and then “nothing” or the blind, mindless, ultimately meaningless accidental arrangement of “something” suddenly magically exploded for no reason whatsoever, creating everything, and then a bunch of everything suddenly accidentally rearranged itself -- definitely for no reason whatsoever -- into self replicating bits which then turned into something that meant everything. But ultimately it didn’t really mean everything or anything as everything is ultimately meaningless.” (Atheism) And they mock other peoples beliefs!!

In the same way that a rabbit cannot magically appear out of nowhere from a magician's hat, so likewise the universe. *_Something_* cannot come from nothing. This logic or form of reasoning is accessible to everyone imho. Or at least to me. It's a good enough reason to believe in God. Just saying...

The transcendental argument: We have a module (possibly more than one) that recognizes the self and thereby perpetuates it. The self is a biopsychosocial construct. Logic is axiomatic, based on intuition that formed because they improve our survival odds in our evolutionary past. Given those rules certain things follow. Reality may not even at its core abide them, but the world we live in does so we formed a set of logical intuitions that do. Invoking God is just an appeal to magic. That it's harder (or even impossible in the OP's view) to rationally justify claims of knowledge, moral prescriptions or prohibitions is merely an appeal to consequences. Not claiming absolutes does not strip us of the means of saying, for example, charity is morally preferable to recreational homicide. And the arguments in support of charity are objectively superior to arguments for the later moral prescription.
