Current: How I suppress scientific inquiry

[aboylegolcom]

Weirdly, the only thing that made we wonder whether this was actually Edward Current's writing was the spelling of "strawman" as one word ... I think EC uses spellcheck Or maybe "spell check" ...

[weaseldragon]

Edward Current > EdwardCurrentFraud

[3point14rat]

... Hmm.

... Umm.

Poe's Law is so prevalent on Youtube, I have no idea if this guy is a true moron or is copying Edward Current's success.

Sadly, I think it's the moron option. The Edward Current's of the world can't help but let their intelligence creep into their work. This guy doesn't appear to have any intelligence that can creep anywhere. (Who else has the thinks religion has something to do with the missing intelligence?)

You got the 'fraud' part right anyways, dude.

[sidewallfusion]

I accidently landed on this video thinking it was one of Edward Currents great comedy creations. Please deduct 1 view.

[Sweet94ify]

You FAIL

[crabbieappleton]

I don't know which is worse: that Current's videos would actually get someone this upset, or that the quality of the response is so poor.

[z0mgwhut]

Do you know what upsets me?

Fucking slow scrolling text.

[JemmetGK]

So far I've never lost a debate against a religious individual. I keep pointing out evidence and you keep pointing to the bible.

Try answering a question of the univers without refering to the bible

Science has educated answers for "miracles" and a famous magician once said, "I can recreate any miracle from the bible." And has done so.

[blamekisser]

idiots and their idiotic gods on parade are sickening. I can't stomach any religion anymore. Will it ever go away, what a miserable life full of fools, reward/punishment religions, they all deserve to be laughed at and stop the crazy antics that make the real god if she exists look like an idiot when it comes to science. All religions make people stupid, Humanism is real every human on the same page no stupid walls of dogma that make thinking a sin .How more obvious ?????

[lornaferguson94]

i'm confused, is he a christian or not?

[MaRaX93]

edward current doesnt state what is scientific,reason does!so if u go post on his chanel god created people out of sand and made the earth in seven days,it is a logical reaction that u get banned,cause he probably doesnt wanna interact with stupid people...

[cham826]

Doesn't it say something that you're angry that he doesn't mark his videos as parody? If his videos can be that easily mistaken for legitimate Christian reasoning, how can you claim that atheists are always losing debates? Do you include the debates when the theist disregards every point of the non-theist and claims victory no matter what?

[Frankgone2010]

i gave this video 5 stars

[73elephants]

To put it another way, "don't get mad, get even".

At least that way you might offer youtubers some entertainment, instead of looking like a miserable sad git.

[73elephants]

EdwardCurrent does not present straw men. The parodies are accurate parodies of many of the arguments that Christians present. Indeed, Christians are often so silly that they are impossible to parody by exaggeration. For instance, the "bananas show intelligent design" argument.

If you are so upset by EdwardCurrent's parodies, why not try and beat him at his own game? Instead of coming on all bitter and "persecuted", why not make some parodies mocking atheist and anti-creationist arguments?

[shadow8602000]

Congratulations on furthering the stereotypical christian who thinks videos like this are free expression while anyone giving arguments to the contrary are "persecuting" you.

[TomSFox]

Err... you are the one making strawman videos!

[EdwardCurrentFraud]

What strawman is that? The fact that EdwardCurrent is putting on a show, and to top it off suppressing rebuttal. Yeah, he does so because he doesn't want to be exposed.

[TripsAplenty]

He doesn't want to hear your bullshit gathering of selected information compiled to appear as though it might have some scientific backing. Sorry bro, there is no evidence to God's existence. stop it, your making our species dumber by spreading this shit. Praise be to SCIENCE.

[mattsabbathx]

wow...just an awful video.

[EdwardCurrentFraud]

It's just text. Not much of any video here. If you disagree with this video you're just disagreeing with the facts. Facts hurt, man.

[mikooou]

Checkmate Edward Current

[Flyborg]

"..creationists who win all the time."

I lauged out loud a little. In science? You can't win if you never start the race. In court? Owned, repeatedly and completely, just as in science. On YouTube? Apart from censored videos full of bull****.. equally pwned. There's a 20+ part series called "why do people laugh at creationists". Ignorance of evolution is not an argument against it. Claiming to have "won" is not the same as actually winning.

[VortexDelta]

Laughing out loud? For crying out loud, I watched part of that 20+ series and the title is why do people laugh at creationist(s) plural. Not "a" creationist, but "creationists." Then it takes just a few samples of a couple of creationists and then states that it applies to all creationists. I have a book here that was written by a creationist that disputes the canopy theory that this video attacks, and this book was written a long time ago. So that video misrepresents creationists.

[Flyborg]

It focuses on individual claims, including most, if not ALL of the most popular ones. Of course since creationism isn't science, there are tons of different claims. I don't see why it matters that you "have a book" which disagrees. Obviously a creationist book disagrees with the conclusion of a video SPECIFICALLY about creationist argumetns being nonsense. I'm not exactly shocked.

[buffdaddy3144]

Google "index of creationist claims"

talkoriginsdotorg addresses every claim ever made in detail.

[fingerlengthsapart]

Atheists now just need to learn sarcasm! Especially when it applies to the point.

[b0necrusher]

Wow, that was an awesome video. Unfortunately if you look at the older comments on his videos, there are a lot of Christians and others who made half-decent points, and those comments have remained up there for months. So, what's the problem again? Is it that something you wrote got deleted, and that pissed you off? At least be honest about it. Because anyone can go to those comments and see for themselves that your claim is BS. (Meanwhile, most Christian videos don't allow ANY comments.)

[EdwardCurrentFraud]

Hi, I'm Edward Current Fraud. I only do documentaries on subjects that are related to real issues. The only real issue I believe in is abiogenesis and evolution. So, you claim that abiogenesis hasn't be observed? Bogus argument! Abiogenesis is true because we are here. So you say that evolution is only interpretation of fossils and not a fact? Bogus. We are here so that means evolution is true. Tooltime is entertainment. Don't bother me now.

[SeenAndNotSeen]

I was wondering- I saw the Edward Current video where he drank poison to prove his faith. At the end, he died. I was wondering if this was real. If it wasn't, I am outraged that Edward Current would trick his viewers into believing that he died! I for one thought that Ed had actually died and then posted the video of his own death. However, I'm having some doubts, and I think he might actually be alive. We should petition Current for a disclaimer and an apology!

[SeenAndNotSeen]

But I guess that devoting a channel to abiogenesis and evolution (and religion, politics, and some music) is more ridiculous than making a channel debunking an obvious satirist.

Anyone stupid enough to think he's for real doesn't deserve to be forewarned.

Now, is this account a joke, too?

[EdwardCurrentFraud]

I don't know what you talk about? Everyone believes that Edward Current is real. Look at comments on his videos. That proves it. OK. Now, you must believe in abiogenesis now. OK?

[SeenAndNotSeen]

I just said that the people who think he's for real are rather slow-witted. I didn't say they don't exist. The fact that so many people are so gullible is doubly funny. It shows what people will believe without even checking basic facts, like how his channel says his videos are parodies.

Many are fooled- Christians and atheists alike. Why spoil the party? Were you suckered in, too?

I'm glad you named your account as such, because now, every time you leave a comment, people will laugh at you.

[twooffour]

Everyone knows that Tooltime is entertainment (or rather, home improvement tips presented in an entertaining way), great conclusion Sherlock, but does everyone know that it's not real entertainment, but fictional entertainment, and HOME IMPROVEMENT is the real entertainment?

Edward's videos, at the end of the day, are also entertainment. They aren't "real issues", just comedy videos on the net. Why bother about it, if you only talk about "real issues"? Idiot?

[SeenAndNotSeen]

PS: Please change your video description. I was under the impression that you were the real Edward Current. You identify yourself as such in the description and in the video, so I had prepared pages of notes to refute you. Not until I read your channel description did I realize that you were acting under an assumed identity.

I was considering making an "Edward Current Fraud Fraud" account, but I will not follow through with those plans if you would just clarify your purpose and true identity.

[EdwardCurrentFraud]

You should stay unseen as abiogenesis stays unseen. Do you know why abiogenesis stays unseen? IT stays unseen because no have time machine. If have time machine can travel to past and see abiogenesis. But you know what, abiogenesis is real despite it's unseen and you are not seen. Do you know why? We are here. That proves it. Abiogenesis need not be disputed.

[SeenAndNotSeen]

" IT stays unseen because no have time machine. If have time machine can travel to past and see abiogenesis. But you know what, abiogenesis is real despite it's unseen"

I gather that English isn't your first language.

[SeenAndNotSeen]

It has come to my attention that TBS has been rebroadcasting a TV series about Tim "the Tool Man" Taylor. Supposedly, he hosts a home improvement show called "Tool Time," but he makes a complete mockery of the subject.

However, I have dug up some dirt and found out that he is a fraud, not a tool man, and just an actor and comedian.

I am concerned that people new to TV will think his show is real. Nowhere is the audience warned that it is a comedy.

Could you create a "Tim Taylor Fraud" account?
