      Funnily though, Bill is right and he also says why. The appeal to common belief is a reasonably good argument. It's also an argument against the existence of any specific God, as most people don't believe in it whichever it is. The appeal to common belief is not a proof, it's an evidence-based indicator. But then, there are no proofs for anything that refers to reality.

      @@careneh33 It absolutely depends on how much people know about a topic. As they pointed out, there was a time where the absolute majority of people thought the Earth was flat, or the sun revolved around the Earth. This is because people didn't have access to the tools that allowed us to know more about it.
      In the same way, the vast majority of people believing that a god exists means nothing, because 0% of those people have the tools to verify those things.
      Regarding "natural" topics you could kinda make an argument, since education and access to the internet has helped us learning a huge amount of general knowledge, even intuition improves the more you learn about the world. But we have no way to investigate if the supernatural even exists, so god claims have no weight no matter the amount of people believing it.
      Making these mistakes is what lead us to learn about logical fallacies, and that's why we know this is one too.

    Notice how flustered Billy got when Matt yelled at him. He almost started crying because of how it triggered him. Going forward he would tend to only call when there were female hosts and only called to insult them thinking they wouldn't be able to yell at him the same way. Shannon taught him a very serious lesson about what happens when you try to talk down to someone just because they are female.

  • @gousc2622
    @gousc2622 5 лет назад +8

    Johnny was attempting to create a strawman in his argument. Whenever he rambled he was trying to create his strawman, like when he said "YOUR COUSIN THE BACTERIA." He's taking the statement from evolution that if you go back far enough in evolution, every plant and animal (and bacteria) came from a common ancestor and shares similar DNA and science says every living creature is your "cousin". So by his strawman, if you kill a bacteria in your bath tub, it's the same as killing another human being or a pet because those are cousins to humans. This is a great example of dishonesty in apologists. Matt did state that morality is based on the WELL BEING OF THINKING BEINGS. Bacteria is not a thinking being.

      He didn't seem to have a problem with cousin incest anyway, which just goes to show that either his morality is drawn on completely arbitrary lines, or it's based on well-being because he deems cousin relation incest to have a low enough chance to impact the well-being of potential children for it to be acceptable.

Ask them who has the current top music single and they're a damn sight more likely to get that right than the university professor in the chair who never listens to the radio. Ask them something about quantum mechanics and they won't have a clue.

      You do realise that when you have kids everyone takes a big risk.
      There is *no guarantee that any child will be born perfect* .
      QUESTION;
      Should parents, who have a chance of passing on a horrible disease
      to their children, be legally prevented from having children?
      FYI; Obviously it would be illegal for a brother & sister to have kids
      for we know that this comes with a "huge risk".
      If they don't have kids all you are left with is the "argument form icky".
      (you find it gross)
      Also in the "middle east" you have multiple generations of cousins marring
      cousins with each generation increasing the chance of having
      damaged children. (not the same risk as a one off event)
      The science backs this up or else "secular" countries would have made it
      just as illegal for cousins to marry & have kids as they do for a brother & sister.

    Back when i was a fundigelical YEC i thought i had tons of evidence and study and solid arguments.
    That was mostly because I was indoctrinated and immersed in it in every part of my life. I wasnt exposed to opposing viewpoints, or arguments outside the strawman atheists made up by apologists.
    Taking apologetics classes and listening to the wiser, older people absolutely destroy the atheist strawman is pretty convincing when youre young and youve never heard an honest, real argument against your position.
    Plus I was homeschooled, and all of our fruends were either from the christian homeschool community or from church. Literally everyone i knew believed this stuff.
    Even still, I always had doubts. But i would convince myself that i must just have doubts because i didnt yet understand fully.
    Of course by the time I got into my teens and started asking questuins and getting literally shouted out by grown men in bible studies for my questions, it started to crumble.
    I'll never forget the first time it happened. The bible study was discussing the concept of the "sin nature", and I asserted that no one in the group actually believed that humabs were inherently sinful. They said that they did in fact believe it, sin was inherited from Adam, there is no one righteous, etc. So I clarified "so you believe that every person is BORN inherently sinful?" Of course they said yes. "And the punishment for sin is death and eternity in hell?" Yes. "And Jesus is the way, the truth and the life, and no ine cimes to the father but through him? We are saved by grace through faith?" Yes. "And if you don't make a choice to put your faith in Christ, then you are condemned?" Yes.
    "So then miscarried babies, babies that die in childbirth, and very young children go to hell?"
    All of a sudden there was all sorts of consternation. They tried to say that the faith of the oarents covered the child until they reached the "age of accountability". So i said "Oh, so only the miscarried babies of non-believers go to hell?"
    It turned into quite a debacle lol.

    I have researched Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity since I was in high school because I discovered a mathematical error in it in physics class when I was a junior in high school. The fact that Einstein made an error was not particularly surprising to me. It was a complicated subject. The fact that other scientists all came to believe Einstein's error was not really surprising. Einstein's error inspired scientists to make nuclear weapons. The fact that scientists will not discuss Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity is not surprising. They are paid trillions of dollars by governments to say that Einstein's Special Theory of Relativity is true. But, in a larger sense, Einstein's Special Theory is a mathematical description of a miracle. If atheists and scientists want to have a miracle, it seems to me that they will be allowed to have a miracle. Jesus had miracles. That would seem to indicate that scientists are not breaking a law of God by having a miracle. But we common people are still required to live in something called reality. If a pilot of an airplane has a slower clock than an observer on the ground, as Einstein's Special Theory says he would have, then the pilot of the airplane would believe the airplane was traveling faster than the observer on the ground would believe. But scientists all believe what Einstein's equations show, that the pilot of the airplane and the observer on the ground would get the same speed for the airplane. That is what Einstein's equations show. Einstein was the smartest person who ever lived. All scientists know that. But the question remains, Why can't scientists explain the reality of the pilot getting a faster speed for the airplane than the observer on the ground. Lest there should be any atheists who do not think Einstein's equations do not show that the pilot and the observer on the ground get the same speed for the airplane, here are the equations.
    x'=(x-vt)/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)
    y'=y
    z'=z
    t'=(t-vx/c^2)/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)
    inverse equations
    x = (x'+ vt')/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)
    y = y'
    z = z'
    t = (t' + vx'/c^2)/sqrt(1-v^2/c^2)
    v is the speed of the airplane and is the same speed from either frame of reference. Show me an atheist or a scientist who will discuss this.

    1:14:18 I would make the point that trying to have children while knowing that you will pass on a genetic defect that seriously undermines the wellbeing of your child is immoral. And unless there are ways to effectively mitigate these risks people should withhold from having children. Legally they are still within their rights, but I don’t think there is a moral justification for this.

    • @HumansAreShitFactories
      @HumansAreShitFactories 6 месяцев назад +1

      So you’re saying that by having children who will have a chance of suffering in life is immoral? It appears so. The reason for the suffering is an inherited genetic defect. I would make the point that having children at all is morally repugnant because genetic defect or not, they are guaranteed to suffer and die. Anti natalism is a thing.
