The New Atheism (by Norman Geisler)

Philosopher Dr. Norman Geisler dicusses the New Atheist movement and their fallacious thinking. People like Richard Dawkins (The God Delusion), Christopher Hitchens (God is Not Great), Sam Harris (End of Faith), and Daniel Dennett (Breaking the Spell) come to mind in this movement.

Dennett is far above the other 3 in intellectual prowess. How can you possibly put Dennett in the same category simply because he wrote a book on religion? It wasn't even a polemic, like the other 3 wrote, it was an account of how evolution could have produced religion.

@Alexdurrant7 Have you read Dennett?! Have you seen him in interviews and debates?! He's a putz! Look what happened when Craig tore him apart. Dennett had ample opportunity to respond to Craig and he didn't: watch?v=TL0HQk32hlk. Dennett is a dodger. He just doesn't understand religious issues and he's not much of a philosopher.

Talking to a christian is like talking to a fish. There is nothing there. They open there mouth and down the rabbit hole we go. Delusion has griped it's claws to deep for reason to release them. They want to be Wonderland.

@scotttebben Talking to you is like talking to a shallow-brained child. No matter how much evidence you're shown you refuse to listen.

I know I already uploaded this video before. But this video quality is much better.

@theism77

You dont need faith, you need to stop filling what you dont know with a god and start saying what really is the case. You dont know.

One question how does the immaterial bring about the material?

@girtkaz

This is patently wrong.

[girtkaz]

@Alexdurrant7 "Debates are demonstrative of nothing but the oratory ability of the speaker. ..." only if one cannot follow the argument apart of speaker.

@Alexdurrant7

Hear, hear! That's exactly right.

[Alexdurrant7]

@girtkaz Debates are demonstrative of nothing but the oratory ability of the speaker. It's only the pseudo-intellectuals that act as though formal debates actually demonstrate anything more.

[MsCoralline]

Why did you block ClumsyRoot from commenting? That action seems to be typical of creationists here on YouTube, and it has been noted elsewhere. None of the secular posters have a problem with people expressing views. Perhaps because the evidence backs them up.

@Alexdurrant7

It's amusing that "cosmological philosophy" would be of any interest, rather than rigorous science.

[girtkaz]

@MsCoralline ".... Krauss attempted to address Craig's stupid arguments. ..." no it was becouse Krauss demonstrated how poor thinker he is if you watch the debate once more you will notise that Craig does not argues against science that is what disarmed arguments of Krauss. I posted the begginnig it was enough evidence for disshonesty of all that but if you want my analyse of his arguments whrite privat no need to spam here. I doubt you want consider it deep.
