Hey rationalmuscle nice videos you have in your channel, keep doing. Just one question: what are the name of the music an artists you put in the start and during the video? Sorry for my english.

[rationalmuscle]

Thanks man! That's Radiohead's "2 + 2 = 5".

[supowit]

Not bad.

I'm fascinated by the theist's obsession with "why." It is impossible to objectively answer "why" questions in cosmology. We only attempt to answer "how" questions.

Thanks supowit!

@markgg1 It's not a claim it's testimony because it's their faith that they're attesting to. And tesimony is the highest form of evidence apart from judicial and legislative notice, as of God for instance. It's not about what my idea of God is for me and my morals it's about shared human experience, an objective moral foundation on which the law can rely.

Peace.

@beyondrunning I wrote a reply, and lost it... maybe a sign! Anyway, the point is this. A person may sincerely believe they had a NDE, but without the proof how can me and you believe them? A claim needs to be backed up evidence. There has so far been no evidence for NDE we can verify, or any evidence for god.

The only way to prove something is evidence. How can I and others take what you say seriously? The lack of reasons you can provide, is another reason to not believe a claim you make.

@beyondrunning It doesn't matter how sincere a person believes it. People can be wrong about things. A person who claims to have had a NDE can never prove it to others. We are fallible creatures, and our senses deceive us sometimes. Just half an hour ago I though I thought I saw a mouse running across the floor in the dark. After searching the whole place I found nothing. Maybe it was there, but maybe I imagined it. The issue is how could I ever prove to you that there was a mouse. I cannot.

@beyondrunning Its a valid argument. These proposed miracles you claim are all things that may have happened by sheer luck. Cancers do sometimes cure themselves. People who have just died can be resuscitated up to even 20 minutes.

This is the thing: If Jesus had the power to heal all sick people, why did he only heal the ones he came across? God could prove his existence right now by curing every case of AIDs (his wen creation by the way according to you) easily.
