This is absurd. I at least have a modicum of respect for people who are anti-reform, but anti-charity is insane. We cannot help everybody, therefore we should not help any? What is the disadvantage? Dependency? THEY ARE SICK. OF COURSE THEY ARE DEPENDENT. Justifying capitalism? Maybe, but repairing some of the harm our society does is necessary, even if some people try to use this to justify its perpetuation.

Really, you're just an ass who doesn't want to part with a cent of his precious money.

'did exodus turn atheist?'

Don can speak for himself, but he now identifies as an agnostic, which is actually an epistemological stance rather than a metaphysical one, and is thus compatible with either theism or atheism.

I am myself an agnostic atheist in regard to some concepts of God like deism or pantheism, but a non-agnostic atheist regarding others, including the God of so-called 'ethical monotheism' (e.g. the Abrahamic faiths), since such a deity can be logically shown NOT to exist.

Speaking of which, I know I may have asked this on the other video, but might as well do it again!

What kind of beer do you prefer?

@TritonAlias How about a statement then

The singularity is the rapture for people who still hold the religious compulsion

[TritonAlias]

Are you seriously trolling YouTube (even rhetorical questions require question marks)? I'd spell out some grunting noise here, but some of have realized the inefficacy of grunting for communication; we use words now.

[LeopardFrogPilboxhat]

are you idiots seriously pondering the singularity. Ugghhh

Does anyone know where donexodus has been?

Don's contributions to the show were awesome. Saw his evil side

ExtantFrodo (well, of course, you must be extant - Frodo Lives!):

Yep, yours is a real kickass god, way more omnipotent than that piddling little upstart Yahweh. Its truly baffling how that puny tribal dipshit still has such a large fan club, when there so many more impressive deities to choose from.

But get THIS -- MY God makes a factorial googolplex to the power of e x pi of universes per every Planck Time interval!!!

Can YOURS do THAT?

Didnt think so!

na na na NA na!! [tongue out]

[ExtantFrodo]

my omnipotent god is WAY stronger than any theists omnipotent so called god. :-)

My god makes gazillions of universes every freaking nanosecond . Billions and billions and billions of them. in fact there's no end to the universes he make because many of them are self replicating universes that make billions and billions and billions of universes. And all that before he even THINKS of moving. People don't know omnipotence for real. HEHE.

Thanx for the reading tip re the Burton book, Triton. I'm certain i will find it quite fascinating... er, no, scratch that.

Regardless, i have certainly (oops) found the exchange between you and ExtantFrodo (great user name) to be quite fascinating & informative. I feel i really have nothing to add to it, but at least i'm free to compliment both of you for its high quality....oh, shit, i did it AGAIN!

[owlcowl]

Sharp observation, TritonAlias (son of NeptuneAlias?): Infinity is by its nature beyond human cognitive reach, so it really functions as a conceptual placeholder. So when theists describe god as "omnipotent", they dont really mean it, since in the interest of theodicy, they must perforce admit all manner of limitations & constraints on god's actions, automatically nullifying omnipotence, aseity, & the first cause argument. BUT THEY STUBBORNLY REFUSE TO ADMIT THAT IS EXACTLY WHAT THEYRE DOING!
