Penn Jillette kinda forgets that atheism doesn't include deities.

None of these videos are insightful, clever, or funny. The puppets are very annoying, the voice hard to hear. If you really thought the world needed your dorky commentary, why not buy a microphone and give us a lecture? Or do you sound like an idiot too?

I thought this video might be good. Why did I watch this piece of shit?

You should change the name of the video to 'Creationist Cunt Fails to Make a Coherent Argument.'

@FillTheirVoid

Yes it is incredibly sad and what's more you are even sadder / more cowardly / evil to worship a being that would purposefully (you have admitted this) bring such misery on his own creation.

[urmommaisfattt]

@seansalvador1 ok. :) gl in your life.

@seansalvador1

Cowardly? No, it is impossible to reason with an individual who insists upon making absolute moral claims ... and yet denies absolute morality.

Your arguments do in fact consist of "it's not right for the supreme and infallible God to do whatsoever He sees fit because my pitiful, subjective, fallible, arbitrary, irrelevant, and baseless opinion regarding it says so".

Survival itself is arbitrary my friend ...

It's really quite sad once you think about it.

@FillTheirVoid

How can it be arbitrary and a mechanism of survival? Don't you know what the word 'arbitrary' means? Clearly you don't! I explained that it is not arbitrary without refutation from you.

Are you just upset because no murderous (you admit this) superpowered patriarch has assigned meaning for your life on your behalf?

The only argument I made against your definition or a generic god is lack of evidence or reason, not simply because I don't like it!

[seansalvador1]

@FillTheirVoid

Those are demonstrably not the arguments I have made. I will take this misrepresentation along with your cowardly reluctance to continue as a concession.

What I have actually said is that if your version of god exists you would be evil or cowardly to worship it. I don't believe it exists because it is an extraordinary claim (like all other gods) with 0 evidence.

I merely demonstrated how there can be no god with those attributes I specified. Many claim this god exists.

@seansalvador1

No, I've spend too much time already arguing back and forth with you, without getting anywhere.

Your arguments consist basically of "It's not fair for the Creator to create us the way He wants because I say so"

and "I have morality because I say so, even though it's an irrelevant, arbitrary, and meaningless mechanism of survival ... for no real purpose"

It's not really capturing my attention at this point. Anyway, it's been amusing lol
