  • Sam Harris is a master of analogy. I wish I had half of his eloquence, especially when I debate religion.

  • i agree, i try to watch as many debates on religion as i can, and try to soak up all the good arguments against theism, and then use them when i argue with theists. Analogies can be extremely powerful.

  • My favorite Sam Harris argument of all time! Making metaphysical claims without evidence (i.e. I believe you were Elvis in your past life) --> Have no way of disproving it, but it is of course nonsense. The idea of a personal god is just as believable as witchcraft!

  • A nice counter-weight to the more brutal style of both Dawkins and Hitchens.

  • lacks the shotgun power of Richard Dawkins. Sam Harris I find is much too kind. HAHHAHA

  • @JohanLindhe you're fucking retarded

  • @JohanLindhe Argument from personal experience is a logical fallacy. try again.

  • Svara på det här videoklippet... I felt God's prscence many times when I've been to places where I've been with many other Christians and when we have prayed for each other and for everything :) You get a feeling and you're just soo glad that you don't even know what to do :D You just want other people to feel that joy to! :D I really love God... :D and there are many cases when ppl hav been healed and such when prayed for ;) and also! Einstein said that there has to be a God ;)

  • @ThatGuyWhoSucksBoobz Just try to listen...

  • @JohanLindhe Code for: I don't have any. I'd rather have blind faith. :D
