- I was heading back to my car from an atheist rally and saw this street preacher and thought I would challenge him.
My speech at the Bring Back our Motto Atheist rally: • My speech at the Bring...
I think it's odd, annoying, and funny how some people usually religion believers or accommodationist unbelievers, get upset at me, or want to take issue with me, for "bothering" street preachers. Even, when they are out bothering everyone else, to begin with.
What they don't remember or choose to forget is when you bring your views to the public as is your free speech right, so to do others have a free speech right to challenge your offered beliefs. How can one not assume the Street Preachers who are out there willing to be bothered since they are so openly willing to bother other people themselves?

Don't think he was a preacher. Just a random guy with a sign.
Who was "preaching" the Bible.... Learn the difference between preacher and priest
They usually are. Nobody's with lots of free time.
Atheist Pride is what separates them from the Truth (God is Truth). For God resisteth the PROUD but GIVETH GRACE unto the "HUMBLE". They are full of pride that they think they already know the whole Bible just by reading it. If you are not saved you don't have the Holy Spirit. IF you don't have the Holy Spirit then you WOULD NEVER UNDERSTAND THE DEEPER MEANING OF GOD's WORD.
J Garcia amen
I just think he didn’t want to be rude. He sounds like he is trying be open minded and listen rather than being argumentative.
The beginning kills me xD
"How are you guys doing today?"
"Pretty good. I'm an atheist"
ArKimation that's not how you start every conversation?
JTCGiantz56 only with street preachers
+pyro light tbh just to fck with them I always say: pretty good, I am a satanist...
How else do you start a conversation with two morons eeeerrrrr "believers" holding stupid signs in a park? I think "wheelchair guy" showed pretty good restraint in the face of abject ignorance. Religion=Opiate Of The Masses. Have an informed day :-)
Ok that's exactly what satan thinks about you the unbeliever.

SNORLAX emerges ..
I'm glad that both of them were very calm and weren't yelling at each other like other debates I've seen
rns, wheelchair dude is very dominating. the other dude was calm because he was intimidated. fear is a part of it if you don't fear God how you going to do what he said. how cuz you not fear God when you know he made everything. and no fearing God Is Not the Only aspect and it's not the aspect that's going to destroy somebody's face or create it the other side of the flag is what's going to destroy or create the faith.
Stephanie Adams Being calm means youre intimidated???
Stephanie Adams you don't get to say someone is intimidated by a person in a freaking wheelchair. sorry.
if anything he wasn't intimidated, he was made uncomfortable by this man's infliction.
Joshua Rolsten
Not necessarily. You'll never reach a lost soul by yelling at them.
(Proverbs 15:1)😉
"Fear" God translates to have deep respect or reguard for God. We are supposed to have respect for Him because I believe he is the reason why we are put on earth and He sacrificed his Son; God the father (male) sacrificed his son (male) to cleanse us of our sins and save us from going to the fiery pits of hell.
Forget atheism, this guy needs to convert to noeatism
Wow, that took me a second to get 😂😂😂
So of the entire intellectual content of the video what you found fascinating enough to comment on it is the fact that he is overweight? Shameful.

Street Preacher was respectful, so was the atheist no issue here.
United Marxist Association atheist came looking for an argument. Preachers wasn't doing anything to him.
Darth Vader difference between a argument and a debate
Darth Vader. You are an idiot. If someone pushes their belief on people in public, then he is asking to be debated. I find street preachers offensive.
If an Atheist stood around claiming that there was no god, I doubt any religious or believing person wouldn't let it go unchallenged.
So stop talking crap.
The TubeJacker oh look, I'm sure you're fun to hangout with.... Do you know the difference between pushing a belief and simply preaching it? No you don't. Preaching is all about teaching and trying to CONVINCE people to convert, not FORCE, CONVINCE. You have a CHOICE to simply ignore them and walk away, or go and listen to what they have to say. Educate yourself idiot.
The TubeJacker No it's not at all. Preaching is educating people and trying to CONVERT them. The CHOICE of believing what is being preached is yours not the preachers. No one is forcing you to do anything, all that is being done is trying to CONVINCE people to join their faith. "If I wanted to hear that crap I would go to church". The point of preaching is to preach and convert people that aren't of your faith, why would they try to convert people of their own faith at their church? No one is asking or forcing YOU to listen or be near the preacher. In your situation, if they're on your property just ask them to leave. If they're not on your property, I don't know what to do about that.
Atheist in Wheelchair refuses to believe in healthy diet.
bob john Sounds like a Babylon Bee article
That was a very stupid comment
Most fat people know how a healthy diet looks like, but decide to eat unhealthy stuff. Most smokers know that smoking is unhealthy, but decide to keep smoking.
Losing weight and quitting smoking is very hard, because both are addictions. Losing weight is even harder. Want to quit smoking? Just don´t smoke anymore. That´s hard, but after a few weeks it gets easier. When you want to lose weight, you still have to eat, you can´t just stop eating.
i don´t blame fat people who can´t manage to lose weight. I blame those wo aren´t even trying.
littleblazer355 it was pretty funny. 😄
@@unglaubiger5645 Most believers know it's rubbish but still keep believing. There is no conviction whatsoever in this "Street preacher" and the other ran away knowing he was out gunned
I respect both these men for listening to each other, not interrupting
Matt Dilhunty built a whole community based on interrupting callers and hanging up on them. It's pretty easy to do when you have a 2 on 1 talk show and then claim you won the argument.

lookingfordanny Well you have to remember he was unprepared to answer. There are better answers than he gave. The guy in the wheelchair already had his questions ready. Being anxious and not knowing what to say in this case is irrelevant to what you are saying
Tom Riddle Do not make excuses for this sign holder. If you are out holding a sign and are devout of faith you ALWAYS remain prepared for questions. Especially simple ones pertaining to the sign he holds.
Kai Kwon Fu Wrong!!! That was a dumb comment.
Tom Riddle Yes, yours was a very dumb comment, and you are even more stupid for not realizing the lack of logic. You must be one of those people that is too stupid to realize you are stupid.
Any street preacher must be ready to defend the faith with confidence.

I did not judge him so quickly at all , I watched the whole video , listened to everything he had to say , all his replies and responses , then after viewing all that , i then made a judgement and expressed my opinion.

“The Gospels of Paul”... yeah, this guy really know his stuff.
@Antioch Carrillo Paul the founder of Christianity
It was sarcasm... Rightly so. There are 27 books in the new testament... only 4 are called the gospels. Furthermore, there was no Matthew, Mark, Luke or JOhn walking around with JEsus and recording everything that he said or did. The gospels are just stories passed down through generations for hundreds of year not eyewitness. of those 27 books in the New Testament, Paul is accredited for writing more than 14 are diretly attributed to Paul. That's the irony and why it can be called the gospel of Paul. You would not have much of a bible if you only read the 4 Gospel of Jesus books.
Furthermore, let's not get caught up in semantics. Saying the "Gospel according to Paul" is not difference than saying "The gospel according to Luke". Dude in the wheelchair just worded it differently, yet it is very accurate especially considering that the gospel means nothing more than the teachings of Christ.
@@can_you_guess_my_new_username Way to cover for someone who clearly doesn’t know his stuff. Is there a club or something all you guys are in??
@@falchionwielder785
Christians do the same thing and that is why there is a need for the "club" called Christian Apologetics.
btw, I am not atheist.
@@falchionwielder785 except he clearly does know his stuff. Everything he said regarding Paul was verifiably true. The fact you are concentrating on him saying “the gospel of Paul” rather than the actual content of his arguments, says everything about your own lack of understanding. Semantics is a thing, and if you refuse to acknowledge that then I’d say you fit quite well within the ‘club’ of Christianity.

Literally the ONLY fat guy in a wheelchair that I could possibly respect.
I am not always in a Wheelchair. As I am on and off depending on my foot's nerve damage for a Big Rig accident when I was a Truck Driver. But I am happy you could respect me, for my mind.
Oh okay Damien when i think of fat guys in wheel chairs i think they are meme wise (they got so fat they needed the chair) but at least you are respectable man.
You need more exercise, weight loss will help your foot.
That is true:)

Fear does not always mean "scared of" it Also means respect
It means reverence
Fear:an unpleasant emotion caused by the belief that someone or something is dangerous, likely to cause pain, or a threat.
It referred to something bad
@@cboy-ou2hr God is all powerful. If we do not fear God, it would be difficult to obey His law. He is the King, the ultimate power to put things in order. God is a loving God but He also has His wrath. Not a careless wrath but a just wrath against sin. If we see God as only "love" without fear, then we wouldn't believe in His punishment, thus not believing in Hell. You can love, fear, and respect God all at the same time.
God does not need threats to draw people to Him. He is too pure for that. God loves unconditionally. He created us and understands everything about us. Which is why he would not send his own children/creation to a fiery place for eternity if they didn’t “obey”.
I'm an Athiest, but I don't see the point of walking up to somebody and attempt at changing their life perspective.

No, that comment I made was wrong, we were all wrong to make fun of God. We should be thankful of him for giving us a second chance even if we were bad to him. The universe was not created by itself, it needed something to be created. If there was someone that could create the universe, it would have to be God. If you ask God for forgiveness, and try to read the Bible more and more, you will have wisdom of what God's character actually is. You will feel God more and more like I do all the time.
*cries in logic
Even if a man was mute and stood there with this sign it would bring glory to God
Ah, the old
"I know it's true because the bible told me so". How do you know the bible is right? "Because it's the word of god". How do you know it's the word of god? "Because the bible told me so"
argument.
That's some solid reasoning.
you people think it all has to do with the Bible... "oh because the Bible says this" " its because the Bible says that"
I don't live a Christian lifestyle because of a book. I live a Christian lifestyle because of my experiences... and no man can ever tell me otherwise
Jc Sosa what if a woman told you
"man" as I'm human being.
hahaha but that was good
Well, what is for you a christian life then ? Is it just exactly the same as what I would call a "normal and good life" with some prayers morning and evening and going to church on sunday on top of it ? Seems to me you're just living a nice good life, and wasting some of your time praying to the imaginary man, while you could actually use that same time to continue doing some good like the rest of the day, no ?
Why could you not live the same life withOUT jesus christ ? (and actually do even MORE good cause you would have more time for it)
the fact that I pray to my God bothers you in what way?
I do plenty good, but never enough to satisfy everyone... I also do plenty evil because I'm human, which is why I pray to my God. I go to him, as a son would to a father.
I think you should spend your time "doing good" rather than commenting on my comment, don't you agree?
If you don't believe, then you don't believe. Just keep it that simple.
ohhh no. i need to assert my dominance over the believers. You religious? IDIOT. You think it's possible God exists? IDIOT.
jk, but that's how atheists act.
Lort Cipe Because thats how religious people act.
Mynawone Bidness This logic can be used for religious people too, if you believe, then believe. Don't go out there in the public telling people they're going to burn for eternity. This is a lot worse than an atheist giving you evidence for why your religion is false.
The pursuit of knowledge is not aided by the belief of anything entirely unsupported by empirical data.
Therefore I cannot condone religion, but those who choose to surrender their free time to a deity should at least know that their God is just that, THEIR God. They made him and they can keep him.
I actually disagree...I think it's healthy to seek the truth, so NO, it isn't that simple. If people go on believing a falsehood for all of human existence, I think that's a deterrent from human advancement. People will be better off knowing the truth rather than believing in something that isn't there. They'd be better off because once you can start to understand facts and evidence, it leads to the ability and drive to achieve more knowledge.
This was so damn cool ... Would love to talk anime and comics with that wheelchair dude!

+leo jaimes Legally. I am blind. Literally and mentally, less blind than anyone thinking god exists in a capacity greater than a sense of morality.
Ibn Muhammad God is a male. In the Bible it refers to "He". He meaning a male. In Genesis it speaks of ho God gave adam control over his women eve. When we think of a King, we don't think of a women. We think of a man. The queen is like the King but when we look at the two we always look at the kings dominion over the King. It's just simple logic. When a person fixes a car, the first gender that comes up is a man. God gave adam dominance and superiority over Eve.
The atheist just came and happy trigger questions to the preacher without really letting him answer. Anyway no answer will ever be enough for an atheist.
Damn dude didnt know what hit him lol

This is what happens when you go and preach without knowing the God you serve.
Zack Joseph this also happens a lot when people dispute people who have read the Bible... only the atheist usually understands the Bible for what it is and doesn’t immediately believe everything in it without challenging the script.
I think you should be ashamed of this comment. What he is doing by going out on the street to preach is something that a good proprtion of American "Christians" are too cowardly to go do it themselves. He actually handled it well. Remeber that only the Holy Spirit can convert, it is only our duty to share the Gospel.
At the end of the day we are all a bunch of bananas
Kudos on both for a reasonable discussion. I quite admire that christian for being willing to take the questions seriously and try to answer them. I didnt expect that from a man with a "FEAR GOD" sign.
I'm an atheist and I find it funny that the title lets everyone know the dude is in a wheelchair. I expected a disabled person, not a morbidly obese dude.

I would never call an atheist a fool, imagine being able to throw away dogmatic programming that was likely meted on him since childhood?
who the fuck cares? this guy is smart
This guys is actually very civil, I see a lot of atheists vs Christian debates turn into telling and cursing. I would love to see this guy sit down with Jeff Durban. I’m sure it would be a very intelligent conversation between the two.
I believe that Fear means respect, not literally be afraid of him
First, I am thankful they were able to have a very civil conversation without violence. Second, the "street preacher" was not prepared at all. As a Christian myself, I cringe at these people who try to witness without any answers. Peter said to ALWAYS be ready to give an answer for the reason of the hope that is in you. If you're gonna preach, you might want to know what you're preaching about.
it's so sad that most Christians know nothing about God or his word
Not really so much sad.....as it is hilarious.
It' inevitable. Those who do study the bible usually become atheists.
The Bible is a true book. Christianity is a joke
William Stephens/ Christianity in America is a joke
William Stephens *The Bible is a true book."*
Yes, the bible is a bundle of pages of paper with printed text on them. Why are you stating the obvious?
This is the most chill atheist/religious conversation ever!
The atheist is asking questions and using reason to try to fully understand the Christian. I love that I can follow the conversation and nobody is putting anyone down or even getting angry on either side. This is how the world needs to work.
I’m gonna be completely unbiased here, even as a Christian. There’s no way to prove God is real, and there’s no way to prove he isn’t real. It really does depend on your faith and what you believe. And that goes for any religion. But it would make peoples lives a little easier to know more about their religion before they go in front of an atheist rally to defend it. For ANY religion, like I said. Respect both sides, everyone was calm, everyone has their own beliefs. No hate.
Westin Vines there are literally whole books on how your god isn't real and there backed up with facts Christians only Have one book and it was written by multiple men that weren't at the events talked about in the book and has been manipulated by every kingdom sense it was first written it holds no facts
The only way to prove God isn’t real is to ask one to search all of the corners of the universe which isn’t possible so there isn’t a way to prove God isn’t real...
Matthew Ezell - that is a dishonest assumption and quite ridiculous too.
Westin Vines - thats the most honest comment by a christian that Ive ever read. Youre wrong of course, but at least youre honest.
People tend to bring up the notion that Science and God a cannot correlate
Idk if I'd more surprised if Jesus actually walked on water or if this man walked at all
[DVNE] Apollo- he probably ate satan and his ballsack got stuck in his beard
Lmaooo SMH
Hahaha
[DVNE] Apollo- Yes he does walk he had a big rick accident that made him unable to
Apollo- It’s funny because this guy uses his disability to an advantage to have people feel some sympathy for him, and take his statements to dole degree of credibility. Lol, he literally writes about himself in the title as “Atheist in a wheelchair”, that’s a bit saddening.
Many of us that are not christians have a much deeper understanding then they do themselves--its the level of consciousness that determines what you can access and see
This street preacher is not ready to preach the word. He needs more time to have confidence when challenged.

Whatever happened to "study to show thyself approved?" Be prepared to defend the Truth. This guy may actually be doing the Faith a disservice.

Kazayan Raawban ....because he lacks one of fivefold gifts of ministry: Evangelism. This guy thinks he’s doing something good for God but what he’s really doing is advertising for a chat with other Christians. He’s not prepared to evangelize.
YEP,
AGREE!!
We must be learned and of good understanding.
Guys, Jesus said he was the Truth.
So if you search for the Truth you will find Jesus Christ.
It is only a stupid religious zealot who thinks that how convinced he seems will compel me to believe as he does. I don't care how convinced an apologist seems. The 9/11 hijackers were convinced, utterly convinced, and yet you don't see me converting to Islam. I once spoke to a Christian man who said that if a Mulsim man broke in and put a gun to his head and said he'd shoot if he didn't renounce Jesus and accept Mohammad, he would choose to die. He ACTUALLY thought he was going to impress me by telling me this, with the strength of his faith. Well I wasn't impressed at all. All that did was make me think less of him, to think he was no different than a 9/11 hijacker, ready to die for his stupid religion. If you think that's a good way to convince others, by impressing upon them how convinced you are, think again.
even christian scholars/preachers who think they are well-versed in the Bible have barely scratched the surface of that book. and not to forget some people dont realise they are knowledgable in false doctrine and not the real truth of the bible.

Ugh same
Why did he do that?

That's one laid back atheist ...

Same here Josh 😂😂

I'd be like nigga I challenge you to walk.
Edit: to everyone mad about this comment it's a joke I respect both parties and their opinions calm down
night wing why you gotta make me laugh?
How dare you.
night wing what he could have done also is ok , in the name of our king Jesus Christ get up and walk. If it turns out that he is just lazy, tell him it is a blessing he can still use his legs
+Bossa Bassa Yes, good idea, let's just close all the hospitals and ask Jesus to heal the sick and the lame. Health care legislation? Who needs that! - We have your magical wish zombie. What faster way is there to prove gods are false than to see what happens to us in time of need? Jesus allows a hurricane to kill hundreds of people and destroy the homes and businesses of tens of thousands of people, thats fine right?
GirlDevils. hell, hitler killed more then that. also, god will always be real as long as people like you continue to speak his name. i never hear of big foot anymore, but god is always coming out of someone's mouth. if god isn't real, then let him chill with big foot. I know he's lonely by now.😂😂
I accept the possibility of a god...just not man’s twisted little perspective of him.
The preacher was so calm and respectful because he feared the sigma male energy radiating from the atheist
brandnewsentence
"Sigma male 🤓"
The religious gentleman seems confused. He is not speaking from his own experience. He is speaking about something.
ToXiC Corpt do you know how to fuckin spell
he dropped the Bible lol
While talking about fearing god, but didn't seem to worried about it =P

“I came up to some people on the streets and immediately started blasting their beliefs and releasing an onslaught of rhetorical questions upon people who were in no way ready for an altercation with an atheist”
Omg! I am such a huge fan, Damien!
Thanks for your support.
Wow, not to be insulting, but the religious guy is such a sheep. Basically all his answers were along the lines of "well because the Bible said..." He's totally incapable of objective thinking on his own.
ThePhrozenPhoenix yeah he wasnt very prepared
Actually you don't have no grounds to say that you can think objectively. You only think subjectively.
David Padilla I’m not religious but you’re 100 percent spot on, that’s what makes the argument completely shaky, nobody has an objective answer and we all have to rely upon our own anecdotal experiences.
Caligulaboi 420 Actually, Christians do have an objective standard that's outside of us. His name is God, the Almighty Creator. Everyone in this world agrees that certain things are right and others wrong. We are able to comunicate and reason. That did not come from an unguided and purposeless universe. It came from God. We can chose to believe or not, that does not change the truth, that a Allpowerefull, Allknowing, timeless, immaterial, spaceless and super inteligent Being created us all. Atheist and all there other denominations chose to not believe it. They prefer to believe that nothing created everything. That we are all just stardust.
Well, what do you mean by 'thinking objectively', David? You may be conflating different concepts here.
"Christians do have an objective standard that's outside of us. His name is God, the Almighty Creator."
You're asserting it. I'd like something other than assertions. Not only that, but the physical universe, reason, and logic are fairly objective, wouldn't you agree? E.g. evaluating the law of non-contradiction isn't just subjective for the atheist.
But ThePhrozenPhoenix was talking about thinking for yourself without too much emotion, bias or prejudice. He wasn't talking about moral standards or anything philosophical like that.
"Everyone in this world agrees that certain things are right and others wrong. We are able to comunicate and reason. "
Yup.
"That did not come from an unguided and purposeless universe. It came from God."
Demonstrate it.
"We can chose to believe or not, that does not change the truth, that a Allpowerefull, Allknowing, timeless, immaterial, spaceless and super inteligent Being created us all. Atheist and all there other denominations chose to not believe it. They prefer to believe that nothing created everything. That we are all just stardust."
No, I can't choose to believe. No more than I choose to believe I can fly. It isn't a choice in any simple sense.
Not only that, but many atheists don't believe 'nothing' created everything. I don't believe that, because I don't know what caused the Universe. Was it an event inside an eternal multiverse? Was it the 'Big Crunch' where a dying universe gives birth to a new one? Is it because without no time cause and effect breaks down (as it's necessarily temporal) and you get uncaused effects? Quantum mechanics may be the answer to that. Are we in a computer simulation constructed by a super race?
....and in typical fashion the religious guy mumbles and stutters while making no sense in trying to explain something he so whole-heartedly believes and bases his life on.
I was expecting a fight but they were actually very civil, goddamn it
Loving how the Atheist uses 'THE BIBLE" for illustration!! LMAO!!
I feel bad for that wheelchair
pin ball reyes LMAO 😂
Mark Araujo oh shit
pin ball reyes that guy in the wheelchair his God is Hostess cupcakes
LMAO. XD
i chose to talk about the wheelchair, not the debate between that christian and atheist
Believing that the thing that created you and has control over every single aspect of the universe will make you suffer in the most ultimate torment and pain for all of eternity just for the relatively infinitely small thought of doubting the validity of something that has no supporting evidence is psychological torture and immoral to tell children or people who are vulnerably gullible and fearful.
Good grief, do you punctuate?
+Specter - well said. Like to hear a religious response to that.
I thought it was a catchy sentence. Though there could have been a comma between "evidence" and "is psychological".
Mortilum Indeed, but no other punctuation was needed. :)
+Jon Iwanyszyn That was more interesting than the whole video. Great life story. I am kind of in a similar boat as you were..I need to come back to God. thanks for sharing
“whats a god?”
“uh yeah..”
Wheelchair guy even had half his brain tied behind his back and he still won.
The church needs to be so much more prepared for this kind of situation. I am a Christian and a missionary and I am saddened to see that a "street preacher" is unable to stand up for what he believes in.
andres maldonado it's in his heart.
What is the church Andres? I already know the answer, just checking to see what you would say.
Lostand Found the church is the body of Christ. People who follow Jesus Christ willingly. People who love Jesus and accept him as their savior.
The only thing the church teaches to church members is how to molest little boys
ReptileMan 0912 buddy are you like 5 years old or something? Lol
WHOA! Thanks for pointing out that this atheist is in a wheelchair! I almost get that mixed up!

I like how not a single comment criticizing this guy has anything to do with his argument about God, only his weight and his wheelchair.
Just typical Christians showing how intolerant and immune to rational discussion they are.
pretzelfrog Cant beat them? Make fun of them and completely distract everyone from the real issue. Do we not learn this in middle/high school?
miguelr246 I'm sure Jesus would of mocked him and called him a lard ass for disagreeing with him too, right?
pretzelfrog I listened to him, he makes sense
pretzelfrog he is shunning God cuz he has a body he isnt satisfied with. your paradox is broken
pretzelfrog Jesus wouldn't have done that, hell as an atheist I hold you can learn things from Jesus. I am not denying that. The way he handled people, those who cannot love their brother cannot love him, or do unto others as you would have done unto you. Jesus is the pinnacle of the peace loving hippy culture. Look at what happened to him too. He was killed. Bob Marley - got shot. MLK - killed: Gandhi - killed. Malcolm X: murdered as well. It's proof that The people who promote peace are killed.
This looks like a GTA cutscene.
LOL
