Re: 5 Questions every Intelligent Atheist must Answer

[666sidewalks]

I like how in the christian video the letters are all gnarled and cracked like they're saying "Hey kids we don't use regular old bullshit letters. No way man. We got rock n' roll crazy letters. Who's hip now huh?"

[666sidewalks]

Do all christians not know what the words adaptation and evoloution mean? WE ADAPTED to our surroundings. The earth is more than likely not our own personal pimped out mansion.

[666sidewalks]

HA HA HA HA HA HA AHA HA HA HA HA HA. Fucking awesome. You just got added to the favourites list my friend.

[TheDSPsphinx]

Atheism is a belief because if you didn't have a belief then you'd be Agnostic... Its then a system because to not believe in a god would then imply many other things... but attacking english is a weak argument.... Ultimately there is no argument for why there absolutely cannot be any God in any form. All you can really do is say why you don't this religion "X" is true...

[BlenderBug]

@TheDSPsphinx atheism is a disbelief in an intelligent God. And sure you can classify it as a religion but that wont do you any good, because atheist recognize their own ignorance, while theist assume they have the knowledge to know beyond what we see.

[Appalachian85]

Get um!!!

[stoneycreek2010]

I can't believe you're serious. You're believe in evolution when there is no evidence for it - and you do not believe in G=d wnen His presence is everywhere - indeed pride makes people silly.

45:9 Woe unto him that striveth with his Maker! Let the potsherd strive with the potsherds of the earth. Shall the clay say to him that fashioneth it, What makest thou? or thy work, He hath no hands?

[destin325]

@stoneycreek2010

"You're believe in evolution when there is no evidence for it - and you do not believe in G=d wnen His presence is everywhere "

no, i believe in evolution because iv taken biology 1 & 2 (roughly 2x the thickness of the bible..and it only talks about living things....its called a subject)

his presence is everywhere? ...really? please do point it out and show us. You will be the very 1st person to prove with absolute certainty if you can.

[JonathanTheAlchemist]

@stoneycreek2010

-"You're believe in evolution when there is no evidence for it ..."-

Ever heard of the fossil record? Ever heard of genetics?

[stoneycreek2010]

@JonathanTheAlchemist

Ever heard about gaps in those fossil records (missing links)? Ever heard that genetic mutations have either no noticeable impact or cause degeneration?

Some more questions:

1. Where did the universe’s original matter come from?

2. How did life begin?

3. Where are all the supposed transitional fossils between the Precambrian and Cambrian periods?

4. Where did the dinosaurs come from?

[71TheHeretic]

Evolution is also survival of the fitest. Kudos smpunditz. Philos71 comes in with a preconcieved notion and his ideas much of which not based on facts and throws it out there trying to seem intelligent. YOU sir have done your homework.

[thoraxxx2]

i have too say that, you are one of, or possibly the most intelligent person i have ever seen on you tube, and more importantly atheism. I too use ants as my example whenever a christian tries to argue about god, && i have to ask are you a public speaker of some ?,because i think that you could make a lot of, Christians, Mormons, etc. seriously question their beliefs,, that is if they can get it into their closed stubborn minds "an open mind, has more in it" -thoraxxx2

[JoyeuxLj]

lmfao what a slap on the face to that other guy.

awesome response video man. :P

That "5 questions dude" was unaware of the fact that he basically contradicted himself by insinuating that atheists (supposedly) makes these irrational clams about the origins of things like religion does. LIKE RELIGION.! : /

It was one hilarious video I'll tell you that.

[esteban0321]

I got a bit of insomnia and stumbled on your videos. You are freaking awesome. You killed it in this video. I have watched most of the atheist video on YT and I consider myself reasonably intelligent (who doesn't). Very good dude. You make good points and I have even heard somethings I haven't heard before.

[ThEvilJackass]

I love this video XD

[jaiparcuz]

Very good respond smpunditz, keep making good videos.

5 starts

[kingofnothing26]

You also have to point out that morals are a view point, what is morally correct for a terrorist is not moral for a peace keeper, morals aren't right or wrong, they are a personal opinion of what right and wrong are.

[anjel5521]

GODDAMN, you're so intelligent. I love you. You made the most amazing points, I love you lol. I especially appreciated your example of the artifical and natural plant. Atheism ftw :D

[johnc7822]

This video requires a golf clap very good.

[Hellcat040369]

Well said smpunditz.

[onestone45]

might makes right with ur theory of moral evolution.. bcos when one person triumps over the other then natural selection has taken place after all it's all about survival

[smpunditz]

You don't know enough about evolution.

Evolution isn't about might makes right. It's about adaptation.

[skiddlecrumms]

@smpunditz Yeah, that is why I think the movie Pretty Woman perfectly exemplifies natural selection... sort of.

[MrPlaid81]

Well done, sir!

[thebuttonsonmykeyboa]

nice video man

[innernaut]

Nicely articulated...

[fireflygirl246]

nicely done, good vid

[uberformance88]

LOL "Riddle me this" FTW

[lookit87]

Well done.

[watchzeitgeist]

agreed, well put my friend. Los Lobos need is just another in a long line of Theist who think that if you make your self sound condescending enough, it some how lends weight to tired ass shallow arguments.

[teo829]

Awesome rebuttals man. Your remarks were clear, precise, and direct and you made that other theist dude look foolish. Athiest for the win. Subscribed!

[tonydhelms29624]

A very well put argument. Nicely done, sir.

[hgryphon]

Your spelling and grammar are from another dimension. That's good proof right there.

So you want to play pretend? Okay, let's play "what if." "What if" the world were just a little bit different? Life would be different. It may be very similar to what we have now, or it may be very different. But so what? What does that prove or disprove?

You're still asking people to believe in magic and imaginary beings.

[superzerox1]

Nicely done sir. That last minute was.... immaculate. hahaha

[sydgetspolitical]

Man, you really put it out there. Great video.

[kristofori]

Good points, I would also take a look at the 2nd Law of Thermodynamics, it can be expounded upon into this discussion.

[Joseph565112]

Excellent video, so true.

[boobmcnutt]

2:45 ...that was a damn clever variant on that argument smpunditz. Consider it stolen.

[PsyKad]

/clap I'm too lazy to make a response video to philos71 myself, plus you did a much better job than i would have. Well done!

[emeralds222]

I like your demeanor. I don't have such patience

[totdos]

A fantastic video and well argued. Just proving to me once again that atheist are usually the ones with common sense and intelligence on their side. I'm glad I'm an artiest and to be in this assortment of like minded individuals, our goals, morals and views are light years ahead of the ignorance, fear mongering and prejudice that a theistic life would have condemned us too. I am henceforth a subscriber

[Yakovich]

Nice work

[NekoD3m0n]

good job

[supermandan85]

Read or buy Marc D. Hauser's "Moral Minds", it's a great book.

[mandangalo18]

good stuff +1 subscriber

[chlebek428]

thankyou!

[MutwaTeachings]

shoved down their cross humbing throats.

[Stegocephalian]

Great video. You seem eloquent and intelligent, and so, it seems the webbot attacks just gained you a new subscription!

This is the unintended consequence that the naive people attempting to censorship on YouTube seem not to have realized - with the information on this bot attack spree being spread by freethinkers with lots of subscribers, we who subsribe to them can find people like you much easier, thus actually gaining you new subscribers, and helping your cause in the long run. :)

[Ekendil]

The guy who made the video that he is replying to is a complete muppet. He does not know anything about atheism, science or even his own positon..

[limegreensquid]

What a douche bag, i mean just from his appearance and they way he expressed himself while asking those arrogant questions.

Excellent video, and - as far as my own personal judgment counts - perfectly argued.

And exactly - who's asking more of who, the ones who want us to believe in this infinitely magical being that no one has ever seen, but gets to decide which of us is good or bad in its opinion? Or in the natural processes of life that we can observe ourselves every day of our lives?

[evolsteveve]

#4: Socrates would be proud.

[CaMaster]

good on ya mate

[voidless42]

Well thought out response. I had considered responding to philos71 however, after watching your video I don't believe I could match your eloquence or presentation. Thank you for doing such excellent work.

[heethen1]

Really great video, I'm glad I subscribed

[a300pilotster]

good job bro.

[ambir]

Theist expect me to believe in talking snakes and donkeys....

[godlessblackguy]

5 stars *****

[LEV1ATHYN]

Well done sir

[narudis]

lol tore him a new asshole.

[Riketz]

That was freakin awesome.

[satanicmoose]

this guys pretty sharp

[cfytcf]

Calm lucid articulation will always swat aside the kind of vids the believers post. Well done.

[XBuLLetSotHEhEARtX]

Nice vid man

[hunkamonkiman]

Great video! *****

[krunchee22]

bloody superb sm

[helgihg]

Very, very good.

[oduwatcher]

Nice video.....great ending!

[squazzymoto]

You should write a book.

[HiAdrian]

Great responses, 5/5.

[AfrSkin]

Great vid! Man its too bad this didn't make it to the olympics.

[TheDarkestAbYsS]

That was a fine piece of work.

[438MillionBC]

Your a smart dude, to say the least.

[snipermagoo]

You're pretty damn good at presentation, sir.

[cozmikzen]

sorry u missed out on the first week of the olympics. still 5 more tho. good luck!

[Ninga0809]

very well arguement my man

[staplexsauce]

very well done 5/5

[1234sebastianz]

pause at 1:45

[PissedOffAtheist]

*tear* that was beautiful

[dave28lax]

Shame about not being able to make the Pwnlympics. The vid you're replying to is what I'd call pseudo-intellectual bollocks, and definitely deserves pwning.

Also, you've been watching TheoreticalBullshit, haven't you?

[smpunditz]

Yes I've watched his videos.

[TILLEYJS]

Good video!

[DAIGORO14]

Love your videos well done.

your speech has a very strong uplifting logic to it.

[Atheistblindchick]

5/5 and favourited!

[MonsterMo44]

that last 30 secomds of the video was pure pwnage on your part

good video man

[h20polorules]

Theists seem to have no sense of time. Most will agree that there is such a thing as microevolution, but they won't agree to macroevolution. How does that even make sense?

Good video.

[UnDeitized]

Brilliant and priceless

5 stars my friend

[HonestDiscussioner]

Wow, I've heard of that 5 Questions for Every Intelligent Atheist video before, but I had no idea it was that well made, or that incredibly stupid. To me, he was like a pee wee players starting in the NHL and thinking he was going to destroy everyone easily, yet didn't realize he could barely skate.

While those two things were surprising, knowing you I'm not at all surprised at how well you pwned him. Sorry this couldn't make it into the Olympics.

[shanoxilt]

This was a good video. :D Um...I do not have anything else to say. XD

[8BitBinary]

Hi smpunditz.

[smpunditz]

hi 8bitbinary

[montrealpsycho]

"How do morals evolve?"

That's an easy one. Just the same as two humdreds years ago, it was perfectly moral in the USA to own slaves. Just like it was moral fifty years ago to forbid interracial marriages.

[clawdfrawg]

You could have been a contender, to bad about the upload thing you should get a prize for schooling the tool.

[dsexocet]

Great video. It's a shame you didn't get this into the Week 1 pwnage Olympics. It would have definitely made my top 5 - I'm very sad & have watched every entry.

If it's any compensation, I think you'd have come up just short as there's a couple of entries which are really special ... still ... 5 stars, great work.

[worldlystone]

Pwned!!!!!

[boony68]

I may not agree with all of your points but you still did a good job of refuting him.

Wonder whats up with youtube ?

[DeimosSaturn]

philos71 is a tumbling dickweed. These five questions have been answered dozens of times to him, I'm sure, but he is absolutely not interested in a reasonable two-way dialog with an atheist. His video is just amateur apologetics tips for christians to use. philos71 is just such an enormous asshole who can't bare to listen to someone correct him on his stupid horse shit.

[MotionFur]

1:45

"Yes it is."

That was EXACTLY what I was thinking when he said that.

[SGTAVideos]

Great vid

[ownedu101]

5 stars

[SoullessAtheist]

One point he made is incorrect. Evolution doesn't have any "goals". Even survival is not a "goal" of evolution. Survival and the desire to survive is an emergent property of a species that succeeds since without that emergent property the species will cease to exist in rather short order.

[miksedene]

Wasn't a fan of the final "theists want me to..." segment. Twould have been more appropriate to narrow the scope to him in particular.

Still, I really like the rest of what you were saying.

[miksedene]

I'm so glad you made the point about assigning attributes to God. Admittedly it only works for the cosmological argument and not for those who think God's existence (and attributes) can be derived by analogy from the world but it's by far one of the most compelling points in most refutations against theistic arguments.

[mathmexican4234]

*out of whom :) lol just pickin on ya, good vid though, i hate that guy

[smpunditz]

You know what I knew I was supposed to say whom when I planned out that piece of footage at the end however by the time I got to it I still forgot.

I'm not in the mood to redo shit to get rid of trivial grammar errors. Call me lazy.

[mathmexican4234]

ok, LAZY! jk, na i was just being difficult haha, i like your vids man, keep it up!

[slipcurve]

That was a good reply.

When the video went "that's not a stupid question if you think about it", I went "Yes it is" at the exact same time you said it! I guess we think alike! (I'm flattering myself of course)

[smpunditz]

You'd be surprised how often I get that.

[gothatfunk]

love your videos dude.

[Seiji338]

What video is this a reply to? I found a bunch of similar videos but not one with the clips shown.

His video made claim that the phrase "God of the gaps" was coined by Richard Dawkins. I had not heard this claim before and did a quick search. Wikipedia and Theopedia both credit the term to "Henry Drummond, a 19th century evangelical lecturer."

[smpunditz]

You should be able to see a link beneath the video.

[Seiji338]

Never mind, I found the video with the new title.

[smpunditz]

Thanks for the information. I annotated part of it into my video.

[Katalyzt]

Perfectly said/done smpunditz ★★★★★

good points as always

Wow : ) Thank you very much.
