Why is D'Souza looked at as a credible or important person worthy of spoken time? He does nothing but coat rambles in fancy words and citations. He has nothing to say.

For those of you who were sick of that verbal pollution by the end of the last video, skip to 4.50. You won't miss much.

free market homicide? excuse me, douchebag, but this man gives 75% of his income to charities like OXFAM, do not for a second entertain thoughts that he is on the same moral level as the Nazis. fucking idiot.

@WalterTexieraLuis Responsibility is contingent upon ability to act. If I see someone drowning, and I'm an EMT who can swim, but I do nothing, I'm somewhat responsible for his death. But if someone drowns in Peru, I am in no way responsible. An all-powerful god could always help us but clearly often chooses not to. So that god either 1) Doesn't exist or 2) Doesn't care if we suffer. The may be a God who created the world but is not omnipotent, or does only one thing at a time.

@mombus

You talking about Oblabla?

[Sammo1357]

I thought I quite liked Dinesh on the scale of Christians. After watching a minute of this clip, I realized how exceptionally wrong I was

whoops.  apparently my finger didn't press the s key hard enough.

"pulling a Dinesh" is now defined, as far a my vocabulary goes, as someone who cannot or refuses to answer a question directly without skirting around said question.

@WalterTexieraLuis Because there is lots of suffering in the world, an all-powerful, all-knowing , all-loving god doesn't exist.

[WalterTexieraLuis]

Small mind.

Saying that, because there is lot's of suffering in the wold, God doesn't exist is sad.

Now, he mentions that there may be a chance that God exist, however it can't be the Christian God. Then any god that may have created this world, still created a world of suffering. Making any god that someone believe in a monster. According to his theory of "why" you can't believe in the Christian God. So we are here to serve ourselves and die. Thank you Peter for your great inspiring words
