The Chinese word for devil Mogui: 魔鬼, is not made of tempter and garden. The first symbol 魔 means Magic, and the second symbol 鬼 means Ghost. I ran this by my Mandarin professor and through Google Translate, both conclude that Devil is made of the characters meaning Magic Ghost.
Ignorant Christians will say almost ANYTHING to back up their beliefs in fairy tales!
@Arsonfly ya it is possible, its possible that the catalyst that started the universe has nothing to do with divinity. I'm arguing that you can't rule anything out
Honestly, I don't think this AE show is sustainable. I have observed in Matt a sort of insanity creeping up in him that comes from talking to these lunatics all the time. If you talk to lunatics enough, you will probably become crazy like them. I quit talking to theists 100%. After years of trying to engage them with reason I just had to stop- it is too terrible to consider their beliefs any more than a few times a year. Best to just leave them alone and keep em out of government.
I used to be a Christian. Religions don't really make much sense to me anymore. If God loves us, why would he send us to hell just for not worshiping him? Sounds a bit like God has a huge holy ego. And if he's all-knowing, didn't he know that I was going to become an atheist and that I'm going to "go to hell?" What's the point of giving us an illusion of free will if our fate is set and God has a "plan" for us? "It's God's plan," says a man to his wife when their only child dies. No. Just no.
The Atheist Experience team are a bunch of hypocrites; they don't want reasoned sensible discussion or debate; if you make any relevant point they end up blocking you; clearly they just want the fundie fruitcake calling who will only be aware of this idiotic reductive literalist extreme interpretation of the Bible; this is old hat; debated down the centuries; they offer nothing new, only extremism and they become the same as the people they accuse
@ianmathwiz7 i do believe that the big bang is the most probable cause for the current universe in which we exist. my main point is that no one nows how or what created the universe or whatever existed before the big bang, or if there was anything in existance before the big bang to begin with. however unlikely, you can't completely rule out the possiblity of some supernatural force behind the creation of the universe.
@Dementeddizzy79 Right, but the problem is that nobody's disagreeing with that. I'm not saying that we can 100% rule anything out. Possible doesn't imply probable, though.
@ianmathwiz7 I call myself a athiest christian as I believe in the message of peace and love but I can`t stand the killing revenge evil nature of the old testiment. I agree with your approach be open minded but do not be gullable
@ianmathwiz7 Ive got a question about that. is i possible, theoretically, to see the begining of the universe if we were to build a telescope strong enough to see over X amount of light years away (X= age of space)? Because light moves at a constant speed, so when it reaches earth via telescope, could you theoretically see the begining of time and space?
@jtdude151 I suppose it's possible in principle, but there's a problem: Before a few hundred thousand years after the beginning, the sky was opaquely white, because there were no atoms to scatter light. We can't see past that point. Another thorn in our side is the uncertainty principle, which makes the early, Planck-epoch universe very fuzzy.
@Dementeddizzy79 I think most reasonable people can agree that making the jump from "we have no idea what caused the big bang" to "a magical trans-dimensional immaterial invisible space ape who we can telepathically communicate with using our feelings caused the big bang" is beyond insane to the point of genuine hilarity.
@Dementeddizzy79 as far as the evidence is concerned there is no "before" the big bang. Big bang = time zero. If something did cause the big bang, we can never know what it is. To assume it's a man in the sky with a beard is moronic.
@leakeg so to assume that a supernatural entity MAY have been the cause of the big bang is moronic, but to say that the big bang just happened makes sense (ie a magical explosion)? btw no one says that "god" is a bearded man in the sky that makes no fucking sense, i dont look up into the sky and expect to see a bearded man staring back
@Demented I never said "to assume that a supernatural entity MAY have been the cause of the big bang is moronic", read the post again you fucking dim wit. It may have been that, it also may have been a spaghetti monster in an alternate universe experimenting with a hadron collider. The point is we can never know, so to assume one hypothesis over another IS moronic. Also,many Christians believe god is exactly what I said - a bearded man who lives in heaven which is above the sky.
@Dementeddizzy79 You have to see the anger when these fake atheist zionist Jesus haters face people they can`t talk down to with valid points. I have to say it is a complete mystery but I do know for a fact the bible is not the work of God, we do know somthing or some event created the universe and life if people want to call that God it is just as valid as saying magic soup created life as athiests do
@ianmathwiz7 (Continued) something cannot come from nothing. its like your saying "well i dont know what created the universe but it definitely wasn't god... couldn't be" why couldn't it be god?
@agentdark64 'Something cannot come from nothing' according to our laws of physics...but God would exist outside of our laws of physics.
ps- Quantum physics suggests something can come from nothing- or at least that there is a way for energy to be converted directly to (sub atomic) matter.
@ianmathwiz7 sorry, that last comment was meant for the person who commented after you. however, getting to your question, you stated that "we don't currently know what caused it (the big bang)" and so i assume that you don't know what existed before the big bang either or how that came to be (the universe before the big bang) i am asking, that if you are uncertain about what existed before the big bang how can you completely rule out the possibilty of a higher power or creator of some sort?
@Dementeddizzy79 I don't rule it out completely; nobody's saying that there is absolutely no supernatural force behind it. Possible doesn't equal probable, however.
Also, if you don't know what caused the universe, how can you completely rule out something coming from nothing?
Here's a big question: What created the universe? If you think it was the big bang what caused the big bang? If you think that a magical explosion created the universe I think that believing in a higher power is just as plausible
@Dementeddizzy79 Plausible, yes but I would rather go with "We don't know what happened before the big bang but we're trying to find the answers." rather than "God is real, shut up and believe me."
@Dementeddizzy79 What caused God, then? Besides, the big bang isn't an explosion, it's an expansion of spacetime. However, we don't currently know what caused it. That means that the answer is "I don't know," not "God did it." Please demonstrate how a gap in our current knowledge makes the God answer any more plausible.
@Dementeddizzy79 I can give you evidence for the Big Bang, though. The four main pieces are, in a nutshell: the metric expansion of spacetime, the cosmic background radiation, the abundance of helium in the universe, and the distribution of matter at large scales.
@elibeth121 Then, why did the universe need a creator? There was no point in time when it didn't exist (after all, if the universe did begin with the Big Bang, then time didn't start "until" then).
@elibeth121 If we say that God always existed, why not save a step, and conclude that the Universe always existed? There is no need for a creation, it was always here.
Carl Sagan said pretty much the exact thing so many decades ago. Science has progressed so much since then and yet these fucking morons are still spewing the same logical fallacies. Creationists are immune to knowledge.

i feel sad that i seen that intelligent man have to resort to telling a caller to shut the fuck up. I follow this show with zeal now, because i love how the hosts show most atheists that they are not alone and that we dont have to take this religious persecution any more.
@MrSumbody69 but i also understand how infuriating it can be listening to these sheep that are just following the crowd and hoping they are right in the end. That is a sad existence if you ask me.
Atheists listen up! One day you will have to give an account for the works you have done while here on this God forsaken earth. The day is coming when the Lord is coming back to judge the living and the dead. Those He has called will be taken up to the heavens and those left (two workers in the field, one taken the other left, two in a bed, one taken the other left, two at the mill etc..) will wish for death rather than face God's final wrath. Repent and live or follow Satan to the pit.
@mandrillx Friend, it is not my business ultimately to debate with unbelievers, prove disprove or otherwise; which is why I eventually stop responding to onslaughts of ridicule and leave the person in God's hands.. my goal is to be a messenger and witness nothing more nothing less. If you want a debate there are plenty of theists who are up to the challenge--I don't use my knowledge of theology and science in that manner because it furthers division and sows hatred among fellow men.
@haz020190 No man has the ability to convert. You perceive it as an attempt to do so. You err in this manner. My hope is someone will hear the message, turn against their sin and see the Lord does not want them to perish. I know many who love preachers-especially of the Word; so again you err.
@haz020190 No.You didn't listen. I don't have (nor does any other ma for that matter) the supernatural ability to convert anyone--neither did any of the supernaturally gifted Saints who were given certain supernatural abilities. Padre Pio for one was given the gift of bilocation and prophecy. Only the Lord can bring about a conversion through the Holy Spirit because it deals with matters of the heart. All I can do is plant a seed in your mind--get you to think about your salvation.
@psalmsurfer1 so your aim is to put the seed in someones mind and that through the process of thinking about god they eventually convert to christianity?? correct??
so your ultimate goal is to (directly or indirectly) cause people to convert, lead them to it, whaever phrasing you whish to use.
that is your goal is it not??
if it is. and you can disagree with my label all you want. id say that is the same as trying to convert people
@haz020190 But you miss the point. Only God can do the actual conversion. I can preach to your until you're ready for prune jice in the nursing home but if you still remain unbelieving then its obvious at that point I could not convert you correct? So you see, only the Lord has that power via the Holy Spirit. Read any conversion story of all the spiritual greats (Saul of Tarsus, Augustine etc) and you'll see what I mean.
@psalmsurfer1 So it's essentially God's choice whether to try to convince me or not? In other words, God's the one that picks whether I'm going to choose to go to Heaven or Hell. So he's torturing people for no other reason than because he didn't bother to try to convince them. Also, what was that about free will?
@ianmathwiz7 Check it out. God doesn't convince you. He works in you through the Holy Spirit and you gradually come to be enlightened. You see things in a different light, you come to believe as they say. Its not typically a one-time event. Conversion is usually gradual. You yourself choose heaven or hell; not God. Torture? People torture themselves. God tries people, tests them, but does not tempt them. He allows certain trials in order for people to draw close to Him. Don't debate-you'll lose.
@psalmsurfer1 He's still working through people, though, which was my point; if this process is necessary for me to come to him, why hasn't he done so? By refraining, he is essentially damning me to Hell without even trying.
As for "people torture themselves," that's ridiculous; you don't blame the victims for what's happened to them. I'm deciding right now, "I don't want to be tortured." Now, the ball's back in his court; if he wants to torture me, he can. Is he going to?
@ianmathwiz7 He will come to you first. It is said of conversions: Man doesn't seek God until God first seeks man. I was a sort of prodigal son;that is my testimony. Raised in the church- catholic school altar boy dioscean boys choir kissed a cardinals ring almost went to Rome to sing for PJP 2. Fell away severely as I got into teen years became a slave to my bad decisions for two decades plus..3 years ago God re-entered my life and restored me. I didn't ask Him to it just happened inside me.
@ianmathwiz7 BTW- It is a crucial mistake to surmise you know what God's plan is..never make that fatal mistake. The Lord said "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, As the heavens are higher than the earth, so are my ways higher than your ways and my thoughts than your thoughts"- Isaiah55
@ianmathwiz7 Part of the answer to why hasn't he done so is you may not be ready..what I mean by that is spiritually ready.Is your heart open to letting Him in? Do you have pride or ego issues? Think you know everything? Love secret sins of the flesh? Covet material things? Sometimes people need to realize a need for God first before God will present Himself to them. Most times it is to the humble person. If you have no humility you may not receive this favor until you learn to have it.
@psalmsurfer1 I don't know what God's plan is; that's why I'm asking that. What plan could possibly have me tortured forever just because I never ended up being ready for God to work his magic? You pretty much confirmed my suspicions; it's entirely up to God whether I convert or not, and it probably won't happen until I'm ready. Well, who decides when I'm ready?
@ianmathwiz7 I'll leave you with Jesus's words:Let not your heart be troubled: you believe in God, believe also in me.n my Father's house are many mansions: if it were not so, I would have told you. I go to prepare a place for you And if I go and prepare a place for you, I will come again, and receive you unto myself; that where I am, there ye may be also. And where I go you know, and the way you know, I am the way and the truth and the life. No one comes to the Father except through me" -Jn.14
@ianmathwiz7 See? You jest too much. Joke etc..You just confirmed you're not ready.You claim in your videos to be intelligent and rightfully so you have academic knowledge, but in the things of the spirit you are still a boy.You're young though-- on your journey--quest for knowledge whatever..just know this..rants and symposiums will not gain you salvation. They will not help you in time of trials and suffering.
@psalmsurfer1 That was certainly tongue-in-cheek, but it had a point; why should I believe something just because it was in the Bible?
I never denied that I wasn't "ready," but I do wonder by what process I become "ready?" And why did God set it up so that not only do I need to become ready, but that I may never become ready in time, and be tortured forever just because he didn't make me ready?
Of course, you're just going to see this rant as confirming your position. If that
@ianmathwiz7 I see your point fine--I'm not here to debate or argue with you--rather to be of assistance in any discernment if I am able. Ironically- it is when you stop asking "Why" is when the answer shall be revealed to you-- albeit on God's watch; not your own time.
@psalmsurfer1 isn't it kinda mean for you to be happy in Heaven while others burn? Would you feel no pity? How would you "live" with yourself in Heaven? If I don't believe in God, how does that make me Satanist (I don't believe in Satan either)?
@SiftyFix How do they live with themselves? Well, according to the Bible, God will brainwash the saved so they can't pity the damned (Revelation 21:4 And God shall wipe away all tears from their eyes; and there shall be no more death, neither sorrow, nor crying, neither shall there be any more pain: for the former things are passed away).
@SiftyFix Friend, heaven is not a guarantee for anyone. Not even a believer. It is because I feel pity and compassion for fellow men that I even comment in this forum so you err in your statement. Friend, even Satan and his legion are believers. There are no exits or atheists in hell. Demons are the best theologians. They know more about Jesus then men on earth. Just read the New Testament for proof.
What worries me is that this creationist movement is limited to US right now, but if they get too much power they`ll try to influence last liberal islands like EU. That can`t be allowed to happen.
Check out my videos "Religion is Ridiculous" (specifically Christianity)....Good stuff, rate it! Christians I CHALLENGE you to watch with an open mind. Atheists watch the vids and give them a thumbs up! Help spread the truth!!
This happens when a person don't listen to one word of the other person, as he is perfect, is never wrong and has to be right. Take completely aside the need of a discussion in a garbage, therefore makes spend time for nothing and also for that, doesn't show any respect at all. How somebody wouldn't snap?
Please religious people, give us some break sometime. It's very hard to have patience with something that doesn't respect you and/or doesn't seen to be listenning...at all.
What's wrong in America? 90 percent of the callers sound either retarded or insane or both? I feel I lost maybe 20 IQ-points just listening to that caller! (Luckily I'm a european with a few IQ points to spare, but still...it's scary to turn on these videos!:)
@winterstellar Well, as I am sure you were not so unfortunate to hear, we don't really value education here. Our teachers are not paid for the work they do, programs for kids are constantly cut from school, and whole districts of school systems are closing down, or defunding due to lack of support. In short, it's our schools. Our schools suck, and are constantly the victims of government cuts in favor of going to war against islam. So, go to war with Islam, or fund our schools? Who won? Tell me.
@the81stviewer No, the military industry is huge and powerful in America, so let the kids grow up morons and gun food in wars..and you can always import scientists, smart people from elsewhere, like you do..(Virtually none of the US nobel-laureates in sciences were actually american born,americans tend to do very different things than science. LIke doin time in prison,one in eight prison inmates in the whole world is an american in America! Another huge US industry there,prisons..EUROPE FOREVER!
@winterstellar the average I.Q. of human beings is slightly above retarded making the masses easy to be led, and the educational system, by design, continues to be dumbed down. coincidence? Hummmm...
@sepiasiren No, I don't think it's any coincidence either. Of course there's as usual more than just one motivation, one reason, but making people buy stupid crap is one reason for wanting to dumb people down. Other, more sinister reasons are almost certainly there too.
@winterstellar Well the show is practically a magnet for religious people that think they can show these Atheists a thing or two. So it just so happens that they get a lot of REALLY bad arguments.
@Blackfriday420 I checked your channel before replying, and it looks like we're into much of the same things, (Richard Feynman, for one. So of course I'll just interpret your little joke as a friendly joke among reasonable equals. Had the comment's grammar been retarded third-grader style,yet old, and fantasy creatures like "gods" or ghosts or unicorns had been mentioned, I'd leave him. BUT If he had been one of theses american tribes of homescooled BillyBobs trollin,I would have wasted him! : )
Would someone tell me if this show is presented on cable or just the internet? I'd like to watch these episodes in a more timely fashion and don't know where to go to see them. Thanks.
@leedsl001 If you live in the Austin area, it's on Channel 16. Otherwise, you can go to the website at atheist-experience dawt com, and it tells you how to get to the ustream channel where they stream it over the internet.
Religion is nothing more than a joke. Reasonable discusion about morals and belief structures based onit is deplorable. A cancer should be pugered and decimated. Not sat down with and given tea and cookies to discuss it's relevance. Just destroy it. Atheism is the cure.
It cracks me up how religious people actually think that their claims even belong in the ring with the scientific method. It's like a professional heavyweight champion vs an amateur featherweight.
@psalmsurfer1 Actually humans created science. Science is the process humans have created to objectively observe and measure the world. So far, there is no reason to believe that a god is needed to explain natural phenomena.
@TheCircle000 Wrong again. Humans developed methods in which to study science, which itself is a separate entity from human existence. Did you create yourself? Did man create natural laws? Biology? Chemistry? Geo/quantum physics? So far there is no reason to believe God is NOT responsible for it. Until scientists can prove this to believers they should remain silent and remember their own limitations by virtue of being human.
@psalmsurfer1 There is also no reason to believe god IS responsible, or any reason to think any intelligence at all was necessary for such things to be true. Until religions can prove this to scientists, they should remain silent and remember their own limitations by virtue of being invented by humans.
@psalmsurfer1 I think again that you are mixing up the laws of nature and the scientific method. The LON are not apart of the man made scientific method. Hence the name Biology, "logy" meaning "study". It is our way of studying the universe from an objective view. Furthermore it is not scientists that have the burden of proof when it comes to validity of religion. Religion is by default going to be false to objective thinkers until religions provide evidence to support their spectacular claims.
Matt totally demonstrates his insecurity at 30 seconds. I love how it's totally fine for Matt to interrupt somebody but OH Boy, don't you dare interrupt Matt!! What a bunch of Losers this show is. But I'm glad there on, cause I love to Clown these fools.
@UnknownUserName4267 How in the world do you get me bragging about my intelligence in that comment? This ain't a spelling contest Genius, and that's not a spelling error, it's a grammatical error. It looks like you're little philosiphy turns out to be Crap!!
@ironman197268 For what it's worth, "philosiphy" is a spelling mistake. Also, what exactly do you mean by his philosophy? If you mean atheism, you can't make that inference just from his correcting your grammar.
@ianmathwiz7 That was on purpose genius, I love to do that to little pedantic clowns like you. I wasn't talking about Matt's philosOphy, I was talking about unknowns. Can you not see who I was directing my comment at?
@ironman197268 I knew you were directing it at UnknownUserName, and that was my point. What do you mean by "his philosophy?"
Yeah, sure that was on purpose; that's very believable. Are you always this condescending? Because all I did was point out a spelling mistake and politely ask you a question. But, I guess you're just too fucking retarded to grasp that.
@ianmathwiz7 Well it didn't take you long to start dreaming. He said, "People that brag on their intelligence are usually stupid." I was not bragging on my intelligence in my initial comment. Then he says that my spelling (grammatical) error confirms that. So his Philosophy, Claim, Opinion, whatever you want to call it, isn't true. If you don't understand that then you're the retard.
@ironman197268 How the hell is his perceived relation between grammar and intelligence a philosophy? That's what led me to believe that you were referring to something else.
@ianmathwiz7 Maybe you should just give up the Philosophy thing, it's got nothing to do with his perception of my grammar. You are bursting with lies here.
@ironman197268 I just *said* that it's got nothing to do with his perception of grammar...ah, never mind.
Evolution? I believe that it's the best and most well-supported explanation for the diversity of life on Earth that we currently have to date. Which is basically a roundabout way of saying, "Yes, I do."
@ironman197268 "What a bunch of Losers this show is. But I'm glad there on, cause I love to Clown these fools." Should this be interpreted to mean that you consider yourself to as smart or less smart than the foolish losers that you enjoy clowning. If not, then its blatantly clear you are wilfully attempting to elevate your intelligence above those in the video and that you take pleasure in advertising that you are doing so - in other words; bragging about being smart. Search: Dunning-Kruger.
@AgeOfScience You guys just do not want to give up the smart thing do ya? Everything you just said is your opinion and I could care less. I was not bragging about how smart I am, I don't care what you say. I disagree with Atheism in the biggest ways, and these clowns are probably the biggest organisation of them. It's one of my missions in life to add to their frustrations and anxieties (clowning, make fun, give them evidence of God in a sarcastic way, etc.) it's not bragging on how smart I am.
@AgeOfScience These guys are also the biggest organisation of Cowards as well as clowns. Their youtube channel called me a troll, and then in the most Cowardly fashion blocked me. And, to add to their cowardliness, they deleted all my comments. And I could also care less about dunning-kruger.
@ironman197268 Exactly--what's more cowardly then sitting in your own studio screening phone calls from theists. At least Dawkins and Hitchens debated in public forums where one is given x-amount of minutes to say his peace then the other goes. These guys have the luxury of hanging up when they disagree so they always have the last word. The ultimate coward operates this way.
@psalmsurfer1 Absoulutly, and that's exactly what they did to me on their channel. They responded to my latest comment and said "F*** off, you worthless creationist troll!!" And then "hung up" (blocked me) and removed all my comments. If they claim I'm a troll, you would think they would want to leave up the evidence of it, and certainly not delete it?
@ironman197268 Par for the course, but as St. Paul said," we war not against flesh and blood but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."
@ianmathwiz7 He never mentioned atheism in his comment so what lead you to believe that's what I was referring to? You're not as observant as you wish you were, you didn't catch my grammatical error that I typed on purpose right after I purposely misspelled philosiphy, "you're" instead of "your." For me to be condescending the way you're asking would mean that I'm lying about purposely misspelling a word, so your question about that is Garbage.
@ironman197268 I wasn't referring to your purposely misspelling a word. Do the words "genius" (used in the snarky, condescending manner) and "clown" ring a bell to you?
@ianmathwiz7 You didn't politely ask me anything. Calling somebody out on a mistake and asking a question right after that is not "Politely" asking. You're just another typical wishful thinking atheist Dreamer!!
Ideally, Science has no agenda. No "I'd rather have this be reality." Instead there is a neutral stance. Whatever is palpably and testably real, and everyone is invited to repeat the experiment and try to prove me right or wrong, is welcomed! The unknown becomes a puzzle to be solved. And the currently "known" becomes something to verify. This latter attitude is how Newton, Hawking, Feynman et. al. earned their Nobel prizes.
xD i know i just commented saying that i wouldnt watch it but i did go to shock of gods response, and it seems the site that he promotes no longer has the video, what a coincidence.
@super3slug Ha ha, I know. I honestly was surprised when shockofgod found my channel. Not only did he set the video response, but he commented several times on this video and my channel. But yeah, total fail with the video. I did get a chance to watch it; trust me, you're not missing anything.
But, but, there's no proof of a multiverse. So there... I think my head just exploded.

Honestly, I don't think this AE show is sustainable. I have observed in Matt a sort of insanity creeping up in him that comes from talking to these lunatics all the time. If you talk to lunatics enough, you will probably become crazy like them. I quit talking to theists 100%. After years of trying to engage them with reason I just had to stop- it is too terrible to consider their beliefs any more than a few times a year. Best to just leave them alone and keep em out of government.

I used to be a Christian. Religions don't really make much sense to me anymore. If God loves us, why would he send us to hell just for not worshiping him? Sounds a bit like God has a huge holy ego. And if he's all-knowing, didn't he know that I was going to become an atheist and that I'm going to "go to hell?" What's the point of giving us an illusion of free will if our fate is set and God has a "plan" for us? "It's God's plan," says a man to his wife when their only child dies. No. Just no.

@ianmathwiz7 i do believe that the big bang is the most probable cause for the current universe in which we exist. my main point is that no one nows how or what created the universe or whatever existed before the big bang, or if there was anything in existance before the big bang to begin with. however unlikely, you can't completely rule out the possiblity of some supernatural force behind the creation of the universe.
Dementeddizzy79 1 week ago
@Dementeddizzy79 Right, but the problem is that nobody's disagreeing with that. I'm not saying that we can 100% rule anything out. Possible doesn't imply probable, though.

@ianmathwiz7 Ive got a question about that. is i possible, theoretically, to see the begining of the universe if we were to build a telescope strong enough to see over X amount of light years away (X= age of space)? Because light moves at a constant speed, so when it reaches earth via telescope, could you theoretically see the begining of time and space?
jtdude151 15 hours ago
@jtdude151 I suppose it's possible in principle, but there's a problem: Before a few hundred thousand years after the beginning, the sky was opaquely white, because there were no atoms to scatter light. We can't see past that point. Another thorn in our side is the uncertainty principle, which makes the early, Planck-epoch universe very fuzzy.

@Dementeddizzy79 Sure, but you can't completly agree either that a god is the only scenario.

@Dementeddizzy79 I think most reasonable people can agree that making the jump from "we have no idea what caused the big bang" to "a magical trans-dimensional immaterial invisible space ape who we can telepathically communicate with using our feelings caused the big bang" is beyond insane to the point of genuine hilarity.

@Dementeddizzy79 as far as the evidence is concerned there is no "before" the big bang. Big bang = time zero. If something did cause the big bang, we can never know what it is. To assume it's a man in the sky with a beard is moronic.
leakeg 2 days ago
@leakeg so to assume that a supernatural entity MAY have been the cause of the big bang is moronic, but to say that the big bang just happened makes sense (ie a magical explosion)? btw no one says that "god" is a bearded man in the sky that makes no fucking sense, i dont look up into the sky and expect to see a bearded man staring back
Dementeddizzy79 1 day ago
@Demented I never said "to assume that a supernatural entity MAY have been the cause of the big bang is moronic", read the post again you fucking dim wit. It may have been that, it also may have been a spaghetti monster in an alternate universe experimenting with a hadron collider. The point is we can never know, so to assume one hypothesis over another IS moronic. Also,many Christians believe god is exactly what I said - a bearded man who lives in heaven which is above the sky.

@agentdark64 'Something cannot come from nothing' according to our laws of physics...but God would exist outside of our laws of physics.
ps- Quantum physics suggests something can come from nothing- or at least that there is a way for energy to be converted directly to (sub atomic) matter.

@ianmathwiz7 sorry, that last comment was meant for the person who commented after you. however, getting to your question, you stated that "we don't currently know what caused it (the big bang)" and so i assume that you don't know what existed before the big bang either or how that came to be (the universe before the big bang) i am asking, that if you are uncertain about what existed before the big bang how can you completely rule out the possibilty of a higher power or creator of some sort?
Dementeddizzy79 1 week ago
@Dementeddizzy79 I don't rule it out completely; nobody's saying that there is absolutely no supernatural force behind it. Possible doesn't equal probable, however.
Also, if you don't know what caused the universe, how can you completely rule out something coming from nothing?

Here's a big question: What created the universe? If you think it was the big bang what caused the big bang? If you think that a magical explosion created the universe I think that believing in a higher power is just as plausible

@Dementeddizzy79 Plausible, yes but I would rather go with "We don't know what happened before the big bang but we're trying to find the answers." rather than "God is real, shut up and believe me."
forfreedom61 1 week ago
@Dementeddizzy79 What caused God, then? Besides, the big bang isn't an explosion, it's an expansion of spacetime. However, we don't currently know what caused it. That means that the answer is "I don't know," not "God did it." Please demonstrate how a gap in our current knowledge makes the God answer any more plausible.

psalmsurfer1 2 weeks ago
@psalmsurfer1 So it's essentially God's choice whether to try to convince me or not? In other words, God's the one that picks whether I'm going to choose to go to Heaven or Hell. So he's torturing people for no other reason than because he didn't bother to try to convince them. Also, what was that about free will?
ianmathwiz7 2 weeks ago 2
@ianmathwiz7 Check it out. God doesn't convince you. He works in you through the Holy Spirit and you gradually come to be enlightened. You see things in a different light, you come to believe as they say. Its not typically a one-time event. Conversion is usually gradual. You yourself choose heaven or hell; not God. Torture? People torture themselves. God tries people, tests them, but does not tempt them. He allows certain trials in order for people to draw close to Him. Don't debate-you'll lose.
psalmsurfer1 2 weeks ago
@psalmsurfer1 He's still working through people, though, which was my point; if this process is necessary for me to come to him, why hasn't he done so? By refraining, he is essentially damning me to Hell without even trying.
As for "people torture themselves," that's ridiculous; you don't blame the victims for what's happened to them. I'm deciding right now, "I don't want to be tortured." Now, the ball's back in his court; if he wants to torture me, he can. Is he going to?

@ianmathwiz7 He will come to you first. It is said of conversions: Man doesn't seek God until God first seeks man. I was a sort of prodigal son;that is my testimony. Raised in the church- catholic school altar boy dioscean boys choir kissed a cardinals ring almost went to Rome to sing for PJP 2. Fell away severely as I got into teen years became a slave to my bad decisions for two decades plus..3 years ago God re-entered my life and restored me. I didn't ask Him to it just happened inside me.

@ianmathwiz7 BTW- It is a crucial mistake to surmise you know what God's plan is..never make that fatal mistake.

psalmsurfer1 2 weeks ago
@ianmathwiz7 Part of the answer to why hasn't he done so is you may not be ready..what I mean by that is spiritually ready.Is your heart open to letting Him in? Do you have pride or ego issues? Think you know everything? Love secret sins of the flesh? Covet material things? Sometimes people need to realize a need for God first before God will present Himself to them. Most times it is to the humble person. If you have no humility you may not receive this favor until you learn to have it.
psalmsurfer1 2 weeks ago
@psalmsurfer1 I don't know what God's plan is; that's why I'm asking that. What plan could possibly have me tortured forever just because I never ended up being ready for God to work his magic?

@psalmsurfer1 That was certainly tongue-in-cheek, but it had a point; why should I believe something just because it was in the Bible?
I never denied that I wasn't "ready," but I do wonder by what process I become "ready?" And why did God set it up so that not only do I need to become ready, but that I may never become ready in time, and be tortured forever just because he didn't make me ready?

If not, then its blatantly clear you are wilfully attempting to elevate your intelligence above those in the video and that you take pleasure in advertising that you are doing so - in other words; bragging about being smart.

@AgeOfScience You guys just do not want to give up the smart thing do ya? Everything you just said is your opinion and I could care less. I was not bragging about how smart I am, I don't care what you say. I disagree with Atheism in the biggest ways, and these clowns are probably the biggest organisation of them. It's one of my missions in life to add to their frustrations and anxieties (clowning, make fun, give them evidence of God in a sarcastic way, etc.) it's not bragging on how smart I am.

@AgeOfScience These guys are also the biggest organisation of Cowards as well as clowns. Their youtube channel called me a troll, and then in the most Cowardly fashion blocked me. And, to add to their cowardliness, they deleted all my comments. And I could also care less about dunning-kruger.

@ironman197268 Exactly--what's more cowardly then sitting in your own studio screening phone calls from theists. At least Dawkins and Hitchens debated in public forums where one is given x-amount of minutes to say his peace then the other goes. These guys have the luxury of hanging up when they disagree so they always have the last word. The ultimate coward operates this way.

@psalmsurfer1 Absoulutly, and that's exactly what they did to me on their channel. They responded to my latest comment and said "F*** off, you worthless creationist troll!!" And then "hung up" (blocked me) and removed all my comments. If they claim I'm a troll, you would think they would want to leave up the evidence of it, and certainly not delete it?

@ironman197268 Par for the course, but as St. Paul said," we war not against flesh and blood but against principalities, against powers, against the rulers of the darkness of this world, against spiritual wickedness in high places."

@ianmathwiz7 He never mentioned atheism in his comment so what lead you to believe that's what I was referring to? You're not as observant as you wish you were, you didn't catch my grammatical error that I typed on purpose right after I purposely misspelled philosiphy, "you're" instead of "your." For me to be condescending the way you're asking would mean that I'm lying about purposely misspelling a word, so your question about that is Garbage.

@ironman197268 I wasn't referring to your purposely misspelling a word. Do the words "genius" (used in the snarky, condescending manner) and "clown" ring a bell to you?

@ianmathwiz7 You didn't politely ask me anything. Calling somebody out on a mistake and asking a question right after that is not "Politely" asking. You're just another typical wishful thinking atheist Dreamer!!
ironman197268 3 weeks ago
@ironman197268 Actually, I did. I was fairly courteous in both my correcting and my question. You're just a totally condescending prick.
I'll admit to being an atheist and a dreamer, but where exactly do you get wishful thinking?

@ironman197268 You call it insecurity, I call it anger. Who can blame him though? After an irrational claim like that I think I would lose it too.

I always fathomed at how these guys put up with the idiocy of ignorant religious nuts without a spat of anger.

Ideally, Science has no agenda. No "I'd rather have this be reality." Instead there is a neutral stance. Whatever is palpably and testably real, and everyone is invited to repeat the experiment and try to prove me right or wrong, is welcomed! The unknown becomes a puzzle to be solved. And the currently "known" becomes something to verify. This latter attitude is how Newton, Hawking, Feynman et. al. earned their Nobel prizes.

xD i know i just commented saying that i wouldnt watch it but i did go to shock of gods response, and it seems the site that he promotes no longer has the video, what a coincidence.

@super3slug Ha ha, I know. I honestly was surprised when shockofgod found my channel. Not only did he set the video response, but he commented several times on this video and my channel. But yeah, total fail with the video. I did get a chance to watch it; trust me, you're not missing anything.

@ianmathwiz7 Shockofgod is watching you. He is subscribed to my channel as well, and many others. The dude is freaky if you ask me.
