      When I was young I heard this simple argument for agnosticism-
      How much do you know about the universe? Do you know 50%? Do you know 10%? Perhaps 1%? For the sake of argument, let's just say that you know 1% of the universe. You can check to see if I'm correct but, even at 1%, this would make you the smartest human being who ever lived. Let's give you the benefit of the doubt that you are indeed the smartest person who ever lived, even smarter than Alex O'Connor. Here's the question:
      Is it possible that God exists outside the 99% of knowledge you have about the universe? Conversely, is it possible that God does not exist outside the 99% of knowledge about the universe?
      There's a 99% likelihood that you don't know one way or the other about God's existence. Why must you then blindly choose to believe one way or the other? It's a false binary. You don't have to believe one way or the other. You can simply balance both possibilities in your mind and be amazed and awed at the wondrous 99% of the universe you don't understand.

      Hey Alex! Throughout your video you say something to the effect of “I’ve already talked about this”; would you mind linking to videos where you have talked about those subjects so that those wanting to follow up may more easily navigate to them? Thanks. Btw I’ve been watching your videos for the last 6 years and have only just subscribed for some reason. I might have already subscribed with a different channel, although I’m not sure. I’m Muslim, but your content has been a wellspring of reference points for my curiosity. You have a degree of what Muslims call adab, and so I appreciate your work.

      It’s a fundamental part of the Christian faith, and most other faiths for that matter.
      Calling Christianity death cultish makes no sense since Christians consider suffering in hell to be the absolute worst state someone can be in. And killing yourself is a major sin in Christianity anyway.
      Everybody has a responsibility to make the world a better place and do as much good as they can before they die. Killing yourself in some cult ceremony would completely oppose that.

    • @You2lessgetit
      @You2lessgetit Před 3 měsíci +77

      As a Christian I agree. God did not create us evil, He created us good. Everything He created in the 6 days (doesn't have to be literal), He called "Good." Including HUMANS. (Genesis 1:1-30) He knew something was off when He just created man, so He created a woman. That doesn't mean that man was bad but that something was missing and that is why He created women. Humans only become "bad" when they turn away from God. God created each of us with an amazing purpose and it is good, it is us that chooses to turn from it. And that doesn't mean we are "evil", it just means that we are not as good as God. And since you are comparing humans to a being that is infinitely good, we are evil. Not because we are evil but because God is so much more good than us, the gap is so big, that we are like evil. We are so far from the goodness from God, that our goodness is like the difference between saving a person from a house fire and setting a house on fire.
      It is not that we deserve suffering but that following Christ requires sacrifice.
      "In this world you will have many trials and tribulations, but take heart; I have overcome the world!" - Jesus
      In a world that is full of evil, when we choose good, we are natrually gonna suffer. "It is our light, not our darkness that most frightens us."
      However, for something like cancer that is uncontrollable, there is a scientific cause for that. Sometimes, there are things we just can't control. That is not that God doesn't care (psalm 56:8), but that unfortunate things such as sickness are a result of the fallen world we live in. With that sickeness that God didn't create, He doesn't just say "screw you, you deal with that.", He helps those who are in need. All He requires is that you follow Him, not because He only cares about those who follow Him but that He knows what is best for us, so if we follow Him, we are gonna be helping ourselves. It is like a doctor who recommends taking medicine, it is not that they only care about patients who take their medicine but they care about everyone and is providing a solution to everyone. It is the exact same thing as God. Because if you rely on yourself to help you, it is destined to fail. Sure, falling short doesn't mean you can't help yourself at all but you can't help yourself to the extent if you went to the one who is infinitely wise to help you. (Romans 5:3-5, Romans 8:28) It is not that we deserve the evil that happens to us, evil like cancer just happen and we cannot control that. But God has offered healing, but we choose to ignore God and that is why our suffering persists. We are ignoring solutions to our suffering, it is right in front of our eyes but we do not believe. "Then the diciples went to Jesus in private and asked, 'Why couldn't we drive it out?' Jesus replied, 'Because you have so little faith. Truly I tell you, if you have faith as little as a mustard seed, you can say to this mountain: move from here to there, and it will move. Nothing will be impossible for you.'" Matthew 17:19-20

    5 hours after this was posted, Zoomer pinned a comment that claimed the video wasn't meant to be taken seriously. His video is a month old, he pinned the comment to deflect all criticism.
    Edit: This comment has become more popular than I thought, so I would like to clarify my position.
    Zoomer's video was out for 1 month before Alex's video and he received plenty of responses from other youtubers. For 5 hours Alex's video had been out and the only eluding to his video being a joke was that he pinned a comment that thought his video is a joke.
    I believe he did this for the sake of plausible deniability, he wanted to have people mock atheists for taking it seriously but have people feel like the video should to some degree represent atheists in a degrading way.
    Furthering this idea, he would post "RESPONSE to criticism of my atheism video" in which he backpedaled further, saying the video was a bad take because he was a shortform channel, making no acknowledgement that the video was ever a joke, because if he did he'd lose that plausible deniability.
    Don't bother flaming him for this, it just fuels the Christian persecution complex and gives him exposure. Instead, support secular historians like UsefulCharts and ReligionForBreakfast, especially since Zoomer doesn't like "some secular scholars".

      To me it amounts to “if things were any different, they’d be different” or the “this rain was finely tuned to fit this hole” metaphor.
      There are hundreds of thousands of planets in our galaxy alone that could sustain life. The logic doesn’t follow, and facts like this make the argument itself pretty weak.

      Well the fine tuning argument still holds owing to the nature of humans, that is well there may be thousands of planets in the galaxy that can support life, there are many fewer that could support complex life, and still fewer that could support intelligent life, and as far as we are aware, earth is the only planet ware intelligent life has evolved, we will define intelligent here as being smart enough to comprehend our own existence.
      In short though the theist and the atheist both agree on the central point of the matter, namely, that the probability of us having this discussion right now, under the circumstances is ridiculously, astronomically, infantecimally small, the primary difference though is that the atheist regards this as mere chance, and the theist regards it as divine providence .
      We could actually broaden this out to encompass not only fine-tuning arguments, but the argument of God supposedly not being discernible in the universe, since we only have a sample size of one we don’t actually know through what we can observe if a universe made by God looks substantially different from a universe which appears Spontaneously.
      Because though at its logical conclusion this line of argumentation points towards agnosticism, rather than theism or atheism, people don’t tend to bring it up that much.

      @danielwoodruff3118 Před 3 měsíci

      @@justanotheropinion5832 I want to preface this response by saying that I am not a credentialed expert in physics or cosmology. My knowledge on this topic comes from the scientific literature I've read in my personal study. I also don't believe fine-tuning is the most compelling case for the Christian God. However, to answer your question, the argument goes something like this:
      Modern physics recognizes a set of universal constants. These fundamental quantities are independent and not derived from anything else. Properties such as the strength of steel or the rate of heat transfer through glass are dependent. They are effects caused by a combination of other factors. Independent constants such as the elementary charge of a proton, the Planck constant, or the speed of light in a vacuum are not the result of other forces or effects. They are hard-coded at the most fundamental levels of reality. Modern science currently recognizes more than twenty of these constants.
      Fine-tuning arguments look at these and other factors that influence the nature of the universe. According to the fine-tuning argument, the exact quantity of each physical constant and the respective ratios must all be precisely as they are for life to exist. In most cases, the tiniest change to one of these constants would not only prohibit life as we know it but would make most forms of matter impossible too. Our universe is not merely tuned to allow for some kind of life, but it seems to be arranged in the only way allowing for any life at all.
      Again, I don't believe this to be the strongest case for Christianity, but it definitely carries some weight. Dr. John Lennox of Oxford University wrote a book on the subject I would highly recommend: Cosmic Chemistry: Do God and Science Mix? It's a scholarly read that dissects this issue in much greater detail.

An all-powerful god's favourite creation are these inherently flawed, evil beings and he ensures they suffer as that is what flawed beings deserve. That's a horrific concept, it would be like humans breeding a species, waiting for some of its members to do something we don't like and then punishing every single other being we breed for that action and then claiming that it's an example of moral perfection.
      It is not an atheist belief that we deserve to not suffer or have bad things happen to us, that is exactly what is expected in a world with no god. However, if there is a perfect, all-loving being, then this is the opposite to what one would expect

      I think it comes from the opposition of the Roman Catholic Church in Germany, and many Protestant churches, towards the Nazis, right from the formation of the party in the 1920s; and the Nazi party's desire to have the church subordinate to the state (because they opposed any and all independent power structures). And then you've got prominent Nazis, such as Bormann, who hated the Semitic origins of Christianity.
      But, of course, that doesn't mean that the majority of the party, including senior members, weren't Christian. They just weren't part of any extant church.
      "The Party stands on the basis of Positive Christianity, and positive Christianity is National Socialism ... National Socialism is the doing of God's will ... Christianity is not dependent upon the Apostles' Creed ... True Christianity is represented by the party, and the German people are now called by the party and especially the Fuehrer to a real Christianity" - Hanns Kerrl, 1937
      The plan to "de-Christianise Germany after the final victory" described by the likes of Anton Gill(1) wasn't one to make Germany an atheist state, but one to abolish any church that wasn't The Party.
      (1) Anton Gil is a British author who wrote fiction and non-fiction, including three Assassin's Creed books under a pseudonym. He won the H.H. Wingate Award for non-fiction for The Journey Back From Hell, an account of the lives of survivors of the Nazi concentration camps.

      as a Christian I disagree. Faith is to hold to the beliefs which your rational mind has accepted. that means that you hold onto your beliefs even while your mood might lean in a different direction. I will agree with you however that there is no proof for Christ, or the creation of the universe for that matter. There is also no proof against both of those things. The problem with desiring proof is that it is impossible for proof either for or against the creation of the universe to exist. Proof is a scientific concept that says that based on certain evidence there can be no doubt of the subject in question. Since science is merely the rules we attribute to the universe based on the evidence that lies around us, we can never PROVE the origin of the universe or the existence of a God. Inside a created universe we could never find the creator just as in a painting you could never find the painter. This is not to say that there is not evidence of a creator, there is evidence both for and against but it is my conviction that the evidence for a creator, namely Jesus Christ the three personal God is far more likely.

      @docterwithane8300 thank you for your reply. I basically agree with you. And have to admit that all my deeper feelings tells me there is something more than what we just see. I am pretty sure there is some creator, I am also convinced my consciousness will live on. But for all purpose I live my life as if only the known material world exist, just by being the best person I can (even if I make plenty of mistakes).
      I can't say there is not a God or some kind of consciousness especially looking upon my life and how it looks like I am "helped" by something I can't understand, but that could just be a statistical flux and maybe I am just luckly . Anyway it would be easy to fall into superstition or even madness if we start to believe everything that seem "unusual" is coming from some higher entities. I guess we will see in the next life anyway.
      So for me if I say I have faith my consciousness will survive it is based on my strong feelings. Otherwise if I have faith I will remain on ground due to the force of gravity or even that I have faith that atoms exists that's more like trust in science, mathematics and whatever I can use as a proof.

It's often misquoted/translated as "Money is the root of all evil." Which I would NOT agree with. Money is neither good nor evil. Also it is not the root of EVERY evil, just a good deal of evil. In the pursuit of money, to gain fortune, fame, power, and control, people have committed terrible things. As for your last statement, I would disagree. I don't think knowledge or intelligence is any indicator of the morality of a person. Many unintelligent and intelligent people have done evil things. One could even make an argument that a more knowledgeable person is capable of greater evil.

      except for the fact he was spreading abit of misinformation though the video since he did not in fact understand the bible of the christian religion , for example the slavery argument , the new testament (the teachings Of Christ) overwrite everything in contradiction with said teachings from the old testament , which is why we have 2 and it is also why the bible is more like a colection of books than one huge book , anyone could write a bible , but not the new testament , if you get what im sayin

    As a war veteran, I must say that i saw a few things i wish i hadn't. Stuff like little kids getting shot in the head.
    So either god can't stop those things, which means he isn't all powerfull and therefore by definition isn't god, or that he is simply evil, in which case he shouldn't be prayed to. If he isn't all powerful, and therefore not god, then theists must believe that there is in fact a god that controls this almost-godlike being, which allows that being to let little kids die, so that god is in fact evil.
    We always joked about how there are no atheists in foxholes, which is true. Even i found myself praying when under artillery fire, but that didn't stop my buddies from getting blown up.
    Let's just say that i stopped praying after a few months.

      And something to consider. Suffering doesn’t stop in a world without God. But the Bible teaches that one day God will wipe every tear away and there will be no more crying and sorrow. God gives the chance to see those brave men again, in a new world where that won’t happen ever again.

After all, it's entirely based on the faith of people, like some people will have a high amount of faith, some will have no faith. I like to hear the points of other people and understand what they think because honestly, I find its a healthy thing to understand what your peers think instead of immediately combat their points, thats what Islam promotes, respecting the ideology of others and understanding them. For his points though, I have no input as I'm merely a follower of the religion but not someone who debates religion, hope this helps! :)
