"I notice you didn't answer my questions.

'Second of all, how is loving everyone dangerous to your immortal soul?'

That's explained in the video."

Great stuff, very insightful fellow. :)
Subbed. :D

You deserved this subscription purely because of your "fine tuning" video :)

I like the way you posted about 911. You were smart in asking people to read the NIST report. I am a firm believer that the government story is a total fabrication, but I think anyone that is posting or asking questions should be commended. Good job

I agree with oneismorethannone.

Really loving the ensuing discussion concerning anarchism, bitbutter, and hoping for more in the future, which I've no doubt will be provided. Far more intellectualy engaging than that boring God nonsense, don't you think?

nice vids mate. :) but why the extreme bias? it's almost mentally suffocating. if you're going to teach, teach because what you teach deserves to be taught, not because you want to bolster your own opinion or view. everyone has some bias, but allow people the opportunity to reason for themselves and come to their own conclusion. don't just add more noise to the world. i understand the religious fanatics, believe me (emphasis); but part of breaking that tradition is teaching people to think for themselves. show all sides of the problem. of course, i've only watched your philosophy videos, and they are..... ok.... they could be better than ok if you were more detailed and open to different views in your vids. christianity vs. atheism gets old pretty quick. so, some expansion would be nice too. but anyway, good job and keep up the good work. :)

Glitchtube is STILL fucking me over. I'll try again.

In response to your comment on Theoretical_Bullshit's video, You just conceded my point by saying that the intentionality of a designer or user is what gives rise to oughts.
migkillertwo (4 months ago)
unfortunately for the both of us, Glitchtube is fucking up with the comment sections (2 maintenance sessions a week and they haven't fixed shit in the past few months).

You say that God's design is a descriptive statement, not a normative statement. But the problem is that when you start out with the intentions and purposes of an agent, you are very much so starting out with an ought. Brakes ought to function the way that the owner needs them to.

if your an atheist what could you hope for but the dismantling of mankind? All my past ancestors said they lived in an era when there was trust and no lock makers raking in the bucks. SIGN of the TIMES, you are not evolving you are devolving, please show me what you believe in and I will educate you with laymen s terms , dont be so narrow minded as to say that some arguments have chipped away from My faith. That is far from true.

Dear Mr. Bitbutter, thankyou for your thought-provoking and intellectually rigorous vids; they are much appreciated. I was wondering if you might be able to post a video on Pascal's Wager, and your opinion on it? Please do not feel obliged; I am simply grateful for your work so far. Yours, barmyarmy.
