We use faith daily. When you get in your car and believe that it will get you where you are going safely. What about believing that you will wake up tomorrow or that you won't get killed when you walk outside. What worked today is no evidence that it will work tomorrow...
They don't believe in a "god" and yet they have set all this stuff up in disproving that "god" does not exist. Your time and effort could very well be spent on something else that is way more important than just not "believing" in a "god."
You know I always though BS was an acronym for bullshit. However, then I heard Brian Sapient speak. I guess in the end it doesn't really matter because both amount to crap!
So, you are jewish, muslim, or christian? Either way, you follow ancient writings, which are obviously false, and are reassured because a lot of other people believe it also. Do whatever helps you get through the day, but don't try to pass off these total fallacies as true.
Indeed. Sapient exchanges dialogue with only very weak opponents, both theist and atheist alike. He gets shredded otherwise, even by tards like Laura Ingraham. He was called out to debate 'theism is a mind disorder' on neutral web sites by other atheists and dodged it. Of course he likely considered their dissenting opinion as trollish or Xtians in disguise-nice easy cop out. He also needs to brush up on the difference between an ad hom vs insult, and criticism vs straw man.
Wait, why even bring guys on this program? He clearly doesn't know what the FUCK his talking about, and is just making bowl shit. WOW. Macro, Micro???? haha it's like calling every step a macro step, and walking a mile Micro Walking. hahaha
I dont know a single Christian who views the interviewed person as one of them. He is the furthest left, least Christ-following person who CLAIMS to be a Christian on youtube. You may as well have interviewed an atheist for this. :o\
the firefly guy seems like a really nice dude. but I'm not sure he thinks a whole lot about things. Honestly.... these were standard atheist questions and he'd never heard them LOL.! One sided debate. And yes... by definition it was a debate.
this was a very well done debate/conversation. I was very happy to see a christian/atheist talk about this topic and not get out of hand. Very well done guys. Glad to see a rational and friendly conversation.
Evolution is real. Babies grow into adults. we see that. I have yet to see a bird give birth to a snake. I have not seen any transitional forms.
Genesis states.,."it is finished" meaning "it" (creation), was finished, nothing more to be done. No Evolution. The Bible was written over 1600 years, by more than 40 authors, on 3 different continents in 3 different languages. these authors spoke on hundreds of controversial subjects and penned their words with agreement and harmony.
Again this proved absolutely nothing,when your supposed jesus said "it is finished"that meant his life on earth was finished.This never pertained to evolution.Again you ridiculous creationsits and christians just make it up as you go along.
Wel according to you it was thru magic,but iof you actually cared to do any research you would know how they got here.But you are lazy and dont want to hear th cold hard facts.
Both science and math has proven Evolution impossible, and if you disagree, then post the Math equation for probability here?
Science proves it wrong by experimentation.
Never once have scientist been able to replicate one living molecule which would contain information for survival and regeneration, the way it was suggested, using the said chemicals that would have been present over 60 years with the worlds leading scientists using replication labs.
To be rational, is to have sufficient evidence in order to deny a Creator.
Which the so called squad do not have.
In fact they act totally irrational in responding to challenges, such as Prove your Biological Origin, or The consciousness is non materialistic, As is Gravity but it exists so how could a materialistic universe produce such intelligence of the non material?
hey Brian, I believe you're wrong about the term "facts" in Science. The terminology of science for words like "theory" and "fact" are actually different from everyday language. It's actually quite confusing, even for atheists like me who believe in Science and not religion.
You cannot say that God is perceived as the same as man, because as stated in the Bible, a day to man can be more than a thousand years to God
everything as we know it has a beginning and an end, but Humans can only think so far, and God existed forever and we cannot comprehend such ideas because we know everything has a beginning and end
I'm talking practically. I believe the organized worship of a supernatural being will become extinct in the next couple hundred years. Logic, reason and the global community are hard things to resist for very long.
Dr.Suess speaks of the who's who live in whoville.Who is to say they dont exisst at said place?The bible also says many things that right now are being discredited as false.You believe it because you are a follower of fantasy.
what is false? I've found that most of the time its not that the Bible is wrong, its an unbelievers misunderstanding. The Bible, in it authentic form, is Gods perfect word. Christians are no better than anyone, some are far worse than unbelievers. Trusting God does not make anyone better than anyone else, it saves your soul. DNA is information. Information can only come from Intelligence. A code is useless without knowledge and intelligence. One love brother
Okay you said absolutely nothing when it comes to proving those claims.DNA is not evdidence for god and you havent even come close to making your fantasy world a reality.

@REENOU812 Yes you're right. Organized religion is bad and I hate it. But you can't deny that individual people who are spiritual have done a lot of good;
Martin Luther, Gandhi and Mother Teressa to name a few.
I think organized religions are evil they manipulate the masses.
But at the same time that does not change the fact that there is a God and that some people saw past the B.S. of the religions and served Him for the good of humanity.
Firstly, you initially write about spiritualism amongst 3 people, Matin Luther, Gandhi, and Mother Teressa. You also stated I can't deny individual people that are spiritual have done alot of good. Huh? Did I miss something? I didn't know I was in a discussion of "individual people who are spiritual" doing "a lot of good"
I guess that is where you attempted to take the discussion from people being spiritual to stating matter of factly, there is a god. Fail.
Great clip. Sucks that everytime firefly and many others can't answer a question and their own short comings in logic are exposed they back into that corner of saying "well, thats just what I choose" :(
Well, if we are on the subject of grammar, thestrtingline48, you need to capitalize your sentences and you need an apostrophe in "isn't." Also, just saying "idiot" is a fragment. And "wanna" also isn't a real word. Try looking it up in a dictionary; it's not there. So you just made yourself look like a fool. Don't attack somebody's grammar if you can't even defend your own.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
it all comes down to this;if you have told one lie,your a liar. if you have stolen even once your a theif. if you have looked with lust,your an adulterer and you have to face GOD on judgment day! rev.21v8-says ALL liars will have their part in the lake of fire. no theif or adulterer will inherit GODs kingdom. you must repent or you will perish!
OK, i don't agree with the theists position but that fire fly guy sounded like a nice chap, I think your tone could have been a little bit nicer?, you might have even had a better response!.
I know it is hard, but we do have a responsibility to be responsive to ppl and talk to them on there own merits, I feel anyway.
The earth is only 6000 years old. The earth is the center of the universe. The sun revolves around the earth. The earth is flat. Birds have four legs. Men are created from dirt. Women are created from men's ribs.
it is painful, but firefly515 doesn't seem pathetic. He seems like an average, somewhat rational Christian. He's not saying I have bullshit science to disprove evolution, he's just saying he believes because of faith. He says, he's not sure about macroevolution, he just thinks there's a God.
Bruce, Laura sounded like an idiot. She barely even let Brian talk. Whenever Brian wanted to respond to her question, she just screamed above him. Not to mention she attacked Brian personally more then she made valid points about her religion. She was a douche.
This comment has received too many negative votesshow
I just watch (Laura Ingraham VS Brian Sapient) they made you look stupid, Why do you guys call yourselves (Rational Response Squad) what is rational about a question could never be answer like (something from nothing) (what made it that made it) this is beyond our comprehension, how do you rationally respond to that question, fucking idiots!!!!!!!!
These doors well not stay closed no longer the church of jesus christ has fallen it is time for a new church to be open the members of church of jesus christ of ladder day saints you have failed and now you shall be closed make room for the new world order church and the community of saints are now of your sins repent!
Just try to push this christian around and ai reveal your number for i still to this day call my self a prophet. Anyone who goes with me shall eat and drink with me any one who spits on me shall be spit on from the truth. Your church might be a place for accussion but my church is a place of rest and relaxion it is time for my church to be finally built amen.
lol the toaster anology is this crucifying you on the cross like jesus was should be your analogy.
You think every christian is going to back down? You think every christian wants to let you slap him in the face? I am different i am of the new order and i dont let anyone slap me in the face. If you slap me in the face i kick you in head and then i beat out of you with the word of God amen.
In the absence of science ancient civilization wrote stories to fill these scientific voids.We don't know the true orgins of life on earth and we may never know.Why would we look to ancient civilizations from the Middle East for answers?
You probly dont believe in spiritual healing either.
You are free to believe in what you believe in you have choice and decission and free will but let me ask you something who put in your mind that there is no God? Truly i say to you you have fallen angel around you and anyone who goes near you shall be cursed amen.
National repsonse we all know you came here to just talk about your website who gives a damn about your website your trying to prove people there is no God Correct with that you well have war on your hands the people of this world make this world to me your are another cult leader trying to prove there is no God. Firefly is a good guy and i stand by him and raise him up as peter was raised up by Jesus.
Paul said Jesus changed this that you no longer have to go by this law the crowd grew angry and said bad names to Paul. They even though they were wrong believe to this day in order to be a jew you have to be circumcised in fact now the idiots of this world we live said it would protect you from hiv and Jesus said those who accept christ are just as blessed as those who are circumcised.
A true christian stands up for not be cause it is right or wrong because it is Gods will to be done and not his own. Paul says in the new testament that two crowds were debating on the law of the land that anyone who is going to be jewish would have to be circumcised.
When a blind man was asked to put his eyes in the water of gallilee he did so. Jesus said it is your faith that has made you see jesus did not say it was the water that made you see.
Many people look at people who are christian as people who have to earn there way to heaven. By tithing, doing good deeds and through water alone. These are hpocrites.
Jesus said your tithing does not save you and who do give your tithing to the crowd said ceasar then give what is ceasars to ceasar and give what is Gods to God.
Let me stop this speaker real quick as i put him on hold first off christianity is someone who believes and recieves in jesus the christ. Ok we have done now.
Next to be a christian does not mean you need to get baptized for water alone does not to save you jesus quoted this in then in the new testament is your faith that saves you.
Im a Satanist. Heres faith! If god doesnt exist then neither does Satan. How does god exist? look around you. how did that tree get there? how did we get here? how did the moon and stars get there? Science can give there oppinion. They can never make a positive answer on how the galaxy got created!
Good discussion. My only problem, get rid of the music that automatically plays when you go on the rationalresponders website. That sheis is annoying.
Hooray Rational Responders. I'm still having discussions with Christian acquaintances over your debate with Ray and Kirk for ABC.
the only thing i despise about the rational response squad is that you guys want to end all religion and thats just wrong. if i were given a button to press to end all atheism i would deny it no doubt because its wrong to take away your guys' beliefs so why do you insist on taking that faith away from us? i hope you guys at rational response do read this though. atheists and theists have to atleast learn to live with eachother in this world rather than argue about the existence of another world
probably the first time i've respected the rational response squad. ive always respected atheists, so dont get me wrong. but having a reasonable, respectful conversation is the best thing we can do rite now. all we're doing is bitching at and threatening eachother.
Hi Brian! I just like thank you for your great efforts to free USA from christianity. I've been very concerned about the state of your country. You guys are probably the only hope there, so my best wishes to you!
I like how firefly keeps dodging the questions about his beliefs by saying "I can't prove gawd's existence to you", "We could argue about this forever" and such.
I agree with one thing firefly said, I can't prove to you there is no God and you can't prove to me there isn't. The Bible says "taste and see that the Lord is good". In other words, you have to experience it for yourself... if you don't want to, that's your choice.
ii1only...it is one thing to have faith, it is another to use circular reasoning to hold to one faith over another, ie the bible says the bible is inherent, therefor the bible IS inherent. Also, just because one cannot prove a negative, does not mean the negative therefor exists or is a reality by default. True, one cannot disprove the bible god, and it is also true than one cannot disprove that I have invisible magical pink unicorns that live under my bed.
There's no need to disprove or prove that He exists. If you have invisible unicorns under your bed, I won't say you're wrong. I'll just say I don't see them. Man has walked on the moon, but many claim to have evidence against it, who's telling the truth? No one knows except NASA. God's real to me, if you choose not to believe it because of theory or "scientific evidence" then don't believe! I'm gonna keep praising Him until the day I die. He's real & nothing anyone says will change that!
ii1only,,,you go boy. As for evidence no one has walked on the moon, well, those people are called conspiracy theorists not fact finders. And like I said, belief in god is one thing, believing the bible is the true and literal word of god just because the bible says so, is ludicrous and can be disproven. Unless of course you give up your reason, logic, rational, intellectual honesty and integrity. THEN of course you can assert it is inherent.
Now with that I can agree with! My belief in God is based on my personal experience. the Bible is an encouragement (as any bible for any religion is) but is not my reason for believing in God. anyone can pick up a book called 'the Bible,' but it doesn't mean they're gonna see or hear God! The Bible isn't a magic wand that makes people believe in God!
The southern guy was nice, with good intentions. But in the end of it all, he hadn't a leg to stand on. He was more or less saying "just because science PROVES something, doesn't mean it's a fact/real." That is just silly. Did you notice his many silences after certain points? Nice fella though...
I will come to your temple with burnt offerings and fulfill my vows to you-
vows my lips promised and my mouth spoke when I was in trouble. I will sacrifice fat animals to you and an offering of rams; I will offer bulls and goats. Selah Come and listen, all you who fear God; let me tell you what he has done for me.
he has preserved our lives and kept our feet from slipping. For you, O God, tested us; you refined us like silver.You brought us into prison and laid burdens on our backs.You let men ride over our heads; we went through fire and water, but you brought us to a place of abundance.
Come and see what God has done, how awesome his works in man's behalf! He turned the sea into dry land, they passed through the waters on foot— come, let us rejoice in him. He rules forever by his power, his eyes watch the nations— let not the rebellious rise up against him. Selah Praise our God, O peoples, let the sound of his praise be heard;
For the director of music. A song. A psalm.Shout with joy to God, all the earth!Sing the glory of his name; make his praise glorious!Say to God, "How awesome are your deeds! So great is your power that your enemies cringe before you.
All the earth bows down to you; they sing praise to you, they sing praise to your name."
Some questions have no answers....yet,unfortunately human beings have a knack of inventing answers and we're still playing and evolving answers invented by primitive man,,,,ummm,kind.
These days we have to accept that religeon was created by human beings as somewhat of a security blanket. That blanket isn't needed anymore. To believe in God is reassuring, but to honestly believe in a christian god, or a jewish god, to me is pointless. If there is a God "he" doesnt interact with human beings and anything "he" has said was inserted by the flaud mind of human beings. Religeon has lost its way.
Nah, that's just impatience with willing ignorance. I get that a lot, with both theists and atheists. Atheists have just as many unsubstantiated preconceptions about stuff as theists, they're just on different subjects.
Science is still evolving, while religion relies on old books and a bunch of unproven, completely far-out stuff in the bible. The church burned people who though that the sun didn't revolve around the earth (and not the other way around, like it actually is). Trying to say that science can't prove everything now doesn't mean it never will. Whereas, the whole god and religion thing becomes less and less believeable with the more we come to understand.
ahhhhhh dude for real ask me these questions cause firefly dude is not prepaired...its a shame i live in colombia...really dont make this one sided ask a strong believer...coward
yeah i believe in God and there is nothing in this world, or words that will convince me other wise..pretty much mr.sapient i must say that most of your arguments are shallow and not very clear...pluss the whole outburst of laughter and the childish pink poney comparisons...comon amaze me
for real....do u really feel like ur doing the right thing...and hey if u want to sound seriouse then u should consider changing squad to like team or like group jst dont make it saound like a cheerleader.

I guess that is where you attempted to take the discussion from people being spiritual to stating matter of factly, there is a god. Fail.

Well, if we are on the subject of grammar, thestrtingline48, you need to capitalize your sentences and you need an apostrophe in "isn't." Also, just saying "idiot" is a fragment. And "wanna" also isn't a real word. Try looking it up in a dictionary; it's not there. So you just made yourself look like a fool. Don't attack somebody's grammar if you can't even defend your own.

Paul said Jesus changed this that you no longer have to go by this law the crowd grew angry and said bad names to Paul. They even though they were wrong believe to this day in order to be a jew you have to be circumcised in fact now the idiots of this world we live said it would protect you from hiv and Jesus said those who accept christ are just as blessed as those who are circumcised.
Makkoblue 4 years ago
A true christian stands up for not be cause it is right or wrong because it is Gods will to be done and not his own. Paul says in the new testament that two crowds were debating on the law of the land that anyone who is going to be jewish would have to be circumcised.

I agree with one thing firefly said, I can't prove to you there is no God and you can't prove to me there isn't. The Bible says "taste and see that the Lord is good". In other words, you have to experience it for yourself... if you don't want to, that's your choice.
jj1only 4 years ago
ii1only...it is one thing to have faith, it is another to use circular reasoning to hold to one faith over another, ie the bible says the bible is inherent, therefor the bible IS inherent. Also, just because one cannot prove a negative, does not mean the negative therefor exists or is a reality by default. True, one cannot disprove the bible god, and it is also true than one cannot disprove that I have invisible magical pink unicorns that live under my bed.
IaintNoGood 4 years ago
There's no need to disprove or prove that He exists. If you have invisible unicorns under your bed, I won't say you're wrong. I'll just say I don't see them. Man has walked on the moon, but many claim to have evidence against it, who's telling the truth? No one knows except NASA. God's real to me, if you choose not to believe it because of theory or "scientific evidence" then don't believe! I'm gonna keep praising Him until the day I die. He's real & nothing anyone says will change that!
jj1only 4 years ago
ii1only,,,you go boy. As for evidence no one has walked on the moon, well, those people are called conspiracy theorists not fact finders. And like I said, belief in god is one thing, believing the bible is the true and literal word of god just because the bible says so, is ludicrous and can be disproven. Unless of course you give up your reason, logic, rational, intellectual honesty and integrity. THEN of course you can assert it is inherent.
IaintNoGood 4 years ago
Now with that I can agree with! My belief in God is based on my personal experience. the Bible is an encouragement (as any bible for any religion is) but is not my reason for believing in God. anyone can pick up a book called 'the Bible,' but it doesn't mean they're gonna see or hear God! The Bible isn't a magic wand that makes people believe in God!

If there is a God "he" doesnt interact with human beings and anything "he" has said was inserted by the flaud mind of human beings. Religeon has lost its way.

Science is still evolving, while religion relies on old books and a bunch of unproven, completely far-out stuff in the bible. The church burned people who though that the sun didn't revolve around the earth (and not the other way around, like it actually is). Trying to say that science can't prove everything now doesn't mean it never will. Whereas, the whole god and religion thing becomes less and less believeable with the more we come to understand.
