Here's an idea: FIRST make your points, THAN start insulting the guy instead of vice-versa. Thats usually the giant, glowing red flag of nothign more than an attack video. As for your actually fallacies, Brock doesnt commit any. 1. He's already made several videos giving evidence for belief in God. 2. You didnt cite any specifics where he actually made attacks on people, you just gave video titles which most of the people watching WONT go to watch and confirm.

@GermanConquistador08 0.5) We made our points, 1) where? 2) I think the video is specific enough 2.5) More like satire 3) gave plenty of examples 4) so the point stands 5) right...it was an example of a fallacy 6) there were examples, and good, jackass is what I was goin for 7) Right...again, we were giving an example of the same fallacy he commits. Glad you think so, that was our point exactly. 8) I'm well aware we were committing fallacies. That was literally the entire point of the video.

@AHughman08 7. "we were giving an example of the same fallacy he commits. Glad you think so" -See this is what I'm talking about with the cut and paste bit. Youre selectively editing this narrative. Dont you find that a bit hypocritical? Wrong even? 8. "I'm well aware we were committing fallacies. That was literally the entire point of the video." - Than why bother making the video in the first place? Again it doesnt help anyone.

@GermanConquistador08 It's incredible how much you don't get it. Watch my follow up video, maybe that will help.

The problem with brock and so many other christians is that they look at athiests and agnostics as a problem. Why is it a problem for other people to have there own beliefs?

Christians are the ones tackling other people with their beliefs, not the other way around.

@GermanConquistador08 My horn always deserves the finest tooting.

@AHughman08 "right...it was an example of a fallacy" - That..doesnt even address my point so..yeah I dont have much to say on that matter. "were examples, and good, jackass is what I was goin" -But dont you find that a bit sophmoric and damning to your cause. I mean, a Chrisitan looks at this and gets a horrible impression of atheists, and any serious atheist looks at this and is horrified by the immaturity of their fellow atheists. Who are you helping by making this video? What is accomplished?

[GermanConquistador08]

@AHughman08 "More like satire" -Satire would be if you were so overtly aggressive BUT incompetent in your presentation that it would be clear to anyone that you didnt believe what you were saying. No, its not satire its just straight up immaturity. 3. ALl you did was put up the video titles. You dont cite where in the video he makes those fallacies you just put up the titles and making childish insults after them. 4. Yes but it doesnt do much for your point of contention.

[GermanConquistador08]

@AHughman08 1. The videos "Atheist knows God exists." "The Atheist padded cell" Theres a couple others but those are just two. Now I'll be the first to admit, hes not the greatest apologist when it comes to bringing the science to the table thats not his specialty and its certainly not what he claims to be his image. Hes more on the social and political implications of Christianity and atheism and thats clear from all of his videos. 2. Well it wasnt, sorry you cant figure that out.

[GermanConquistador08]

@AHughman08 "We made our points" -No, you didnt actually. First thing you siad FIRST thing was an insult you scoff and sneered when starting your explaination showing your contempt which is like I said a glowing red flag that you really dont care about the facts, you just wanted to insult the man. And you even admit "we never bring ourselves to take your videos seriously." I'm sorry but if you feel this way, you should either grow up and NOT make videos or admit you're just making fun of the guy
