Here is a religion's definition of "God". GOD=The Universe. It shapes human growth and development by natural selection. So, let's see if that God exists. Does the Universe exist? Yes. Does it shape human growth and development by natural selection? Yes. Then, by definition, God exists.
And and, as if all the crazy shit religion believes and pushes and is responsible for, as if that weren't enough along they come to support, with all their heart mind and soul the a$$hole that is Donald J Shitzhispants. WTF idiots
Shut up: god Word says for day that thou eat of the fruit thou shall surely die so blaming god for one or thousands of deaths, also using false and western World religon which has been fooling People for thousands of years dos not make sense to me, also scientiest make so much clases againts god but not one Word against the devil who is the father of all lies, and the god this World it says satan is the Prince of the power of the air which is the médium which you are using to get your deception across,so using islam Vatican america who the bible describes as beast false prophets, whore who decieves the nations is utter rubbish to me.
Sam Harris's oversight of the One Hundred and four year REDUNDANCY, IRRELEVANCES, AND OBSOLESCENCE of Atheism is hilarious, 😂😂 Absolutely HILARIOUS.😂😂. I can't wait until the EMBARRASSMENT HITS HIM where it hurts him and his cohorts most, in their pockets. The irreversible outcome for all mentally lazy atheists has finally arrived Though yet to reach the attention of these overzealous intellectually insecure minnows, I'm thoroughly enjoying the hilarity of it all. The last laugh for us grateful GOD Confirmees is so underrated, I'm taking full advantage of the opportunity given me by the redundant rhetoric UA-cam videos they record to promote their irrelevant opinions. IT'S INCREDIBLY HILARIOUS. I CANNOT THANK SAM HARRIS and his colleagues for the opportunity to shove The Greatest Science known to man that has brought an end to the tiresome worthless rhetoric of the mentally lazy. KRIYA YOGA, THE GREATEST SCIENCE EVER INTRODUCED TO MAN, for it BRINGS PROOF TO OF GOD'S REALITY THROUGH DIRECT PERSONAL EXPERIENCE AND IT WORKS LIKE MATHEMATICS. A FORTY-FOUR YEAR VETERAN OF THIS MOST POWERFUL WEAPON AGAINST ATHEISM, AGNOSTICISM, AND DOUBTFUL MINDS, MADE AVAILABLE TO EVERY MAN AND WOMAN. Refusing to try Kriya Yoga only devalues your opinion dramatically, making your relevance useless, worthless, unacceptable, redundant, and OBSOLETE. YOU CAN'T DENY THE EXISTENCE OF AN OMEBA IF YOU REFUSE TO LOOK THROUGH THE MICROSCOPE.
I needed this.
it would be great to have ohhh, I dont know, a thousand leaders with similar views. Now I want to go to Denmark, just to experience the absence of a god.
Sam harris is my metaphorical god. 😅😅
Love this talk. Very wise
The Bible does say that God does those things. Isaiah 45:7 I make peace, I create evil, I'm the Lord thy god, I do All things... Also Dueteronomy 10:14-19 ( notice Dueteronomy 10:14 is what Paul horribly repeated in Romans 10:8) Also read Dueteronomy Cha 28.
1) The atheist supposed gotcha is that 9 million children died and they all went to hell. But this is not what Christians believe nor what scripture teaches. God is just and will judge according to how folks lived while on earth, nature, nurture and lack thereof. All of us are on our way to hell without Christ Jesus in our lives. There are a few exceptions.... 1) the mentally disabled 2) small children and 3) indigenous peoples who have died without hearing about Jesus. But for most of us, we have heard about Jesus and what we do or don't do with him is our greatest choice. Jesus died on a cross for all of our sin, our wrong doing, past, present and future. He has made a way so we can be made right again with God who is our Father in heaven. Prior to Jesus's sacrifice, God judged people by how they acted. Because all humankind is created in God's image, we all know right from wrong. I believe this logic will apply to those such as indigenous people. But for the rest of us, we get to choose Jesus! Concerning evolution, it is a fairytale that does not hold up to the scientific scrutiny. In fact, honest scientific scrutiny renders it impossible. Do you know a single scientific hypothesis using known biological mechanisms coupled with evolutionary time frames that might support common ancestry between any two animals from any two different family taxon?
Are you god? If not, where did you get the authority to speak on behalf of god?
What is the highest scientific achievement that you've received? Have you earned a college degree in biology at any level? Bachelor, masters or PhD?
@@513morris No, I'm not the Creator God. Jesus said to go and share his good news.
@@chrisforry5268 - how did you confirm that was Jesus and not just humans. How did you confirm that those words from the Bible weren't inspired by the devil looking to deceive humanity? If you're not god, then why would you be so certain when speaking for god? If you think you're speaking for god, but you were really deceived by the devil, then what do you think is the punishment for that?
@@513morris I'd challenge you to pray to God with a sincere heart. Ask him for truth. Start going to a Bible believing church and see if the biblical claims line up with reality, the love, kindness, changed lives, selflessness, etc.
I'm an ex-Christian atheist and the likes of Sam and Hitch and the great Dawkins played a big part in my becoming one. What I absolutely hate now is people like the guy he talks to at 7:20-ish. Like, buddy... you are constantly talking from within the confines of a box you put yourself into. One thing I'd love to see is someone like Sam showing up in a LOTR costume for a debate like this and then constantly just talking in the context of LOTR. Like counter their arguments with stuff about Sauron and "as the great Gimli said" and such. And when they tell you you're being ridiculous for acting like things in those books are real, you'd just be like "See what I mean?"
Most people above average intelligence are atheists. Most people in US jails for violent crimes are religious. There are less than one percent of the US prison population are atheist's.
Please Dexter, spare me
Females are treated the way they were because early Jews and Muslims accepted the Garden of Eden story as true.
what were Muhammed's parents like?
One beard hair. 😂
Exactly. Either he doesn't care or he has created a world that he can't control.
I love this guy sunny bird. I'd like to be like sunny bird. Peace to sunny bird. If I were jesus I'd bless sunny bird. I'm not jeus and i'm pretty agnostic. you gotta be agnostic but they still call you atheist. the truth is there are more reason to doubt god than for believing in. personally I say fuck jesus and barbra bush.I hope she burns in hell.
We need 100 million people in USA thinking like this
OOOooo... the first guy keeps interrupting Sam! I'd slap him.
Common sense and logic is Sam Harris.
I've decided he's my metaphorical God 😅😅
Common sense and logic is Sam Harrison.
How are those refugees working out for Sweden? lol
WHO cares🤷🏻♂️😜
"Sweeden has let more refugees into its border....." lol. how is that working out for them?
Cluesless. I will just address his total ignorance about Christianity, and not the religious misrepresentations of it. 1. God does not cause all things to happen. Jesus said, Luke 10:31 KJV - And by chance there came down a certain priest that way: and when he saw him, he passed by on the other side.". 2. The suffering in the world is what man created, not God. Romans 5:12 KJV - Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:" Blame great, great,great, great,great great, great great grandaddy. Also, when Adam and Eve sinned, they did not seek forgiveness. Never said, "I am sorry". Didn't say "sorry", Even "My bad". Its God who initiated and provided reconciliation. That is why God kicked Adam out of the garden to prevent him from staying separated from him and unable to be redemmed. Genesis 3:22 KJV - And the LORD God said, Behold, the man is become as one of us, to know good and evil: and now, lest he put forth his hand, and take also of the tree of life, and eat, and live for ever:," 3. The miracles of Jesus are NOT used as a reason to beleive in Jesus. 2 Corinthians 5:7 KJV - (For we walk by faith, not by sight:)" Romans 10:17 KJV - So then faith cometh by hearing, and hearing by the word of God." Even Peter said about his experience on the Mt. of transfiguration: 2 Peter 18, "And this voice which came from heaven we heard, when we were with him in the holy mount. 19 We have also a more sure word of prophecy" The "word" is superior to the experience. 4. Nowhere does God says he has a plan for our individuals lives. The word "plan" or "planes" is not even in a bible. 5. God does not hear all mens prayers. John 9:31, "Now we know that God heareth not sinners: but if any man be a worshipper of God, and doeth his will,". 6. The bible does not say a snake was in the garden of eden. It says a "serpent", speaking to character of Satan, subtle. Also, Satan means adversary. There are over 20 different descriptive names for satan. Which is why he called a beast and calf. 7. During the "dispenation of grace" there are no prophecies one can observe to know about the return of christ. 8. The next thing in the bible to happen is not the return of christ but: Romans 11:25 KJV - For I would not, brethren, that ye should be ignorant of this mystery, lest ye should be wise in your own conceits; that blindness in part is happened to Israel, until the fulness of the Gentiles be come in." 9. The bible does not say we are made in God's image. It says Adam was. It says we are made Adams image. Genesis 5:3 KJV - And Adam lived an hundred and thirty years, and begat a son in his own likeness, after his image; and called his name Seth:" Fallen. A sinner. Rebellious. Thats enough. Yall are listening to a guy who doesn't even know the bible. Yet you are assuming he does while leading you astray because how he speaks. He is just like Satan - subtle. Ephesians 4:32 KJV - And be ye kind one to another, tenderhearted, forgiving one another, even as God for Christ's sake hath forgiven you."
It appears you are relying on authority for your argument. Sam and his colleagues are explaining that knowledge is not based on authority but on actual experience and investigation. See the difference?
@donaldwhittaker7987 Yeah, no. He is misinformed about the very basics of the subject, Christianity, which he is critiquing. An eight-year-old who attends Sunday school knows more.
Your god forgot to teach you how to spell clueless dummy
Are you god? If not, who gave you the authority to speak on behalf of god?
@@mlayton1904 an 8 year old attending Sunday school is receiving unwanted child abuse. I would not teach kids stuff about which I was totally unsure. Lying to kidd makes them distrustful later on, either that or very gullible.
So.many christians here crying lol
Remember that one time I go to sleep to Harris and Hitchens debates or lectures
When God allowed the slaughter of the Canaanites, etc, it was not ethnic cleansing. God also was very patient, allowing time for them to repent. Repent from what? Sexual orgies, child sacrifice and more. The evil was extreme. (Reference: Genesis 15:16 - In the fourth generation your descendants will come back here, for the sin of the Amorites has not yet reached its full measure). God is not a genocidal maniac. He is long-suffering and wishing no one to perish. Many argue that God is evil for allowing evil. But when HE wipes out evil, then they call HIM evil. SHM! John 3:16 ''For God so loved the world, that HE sent HIS only begotten Son! So that whoever believeth in Him, should not perish, but have everlasting life''. Jesus Loves you and wants to save you.
Pretend. Hang in there. You'll get to rule the world without ever bothering to learn how. Your Imaginary Friend will provide everything for you.
❤
I want my personal God of Reason to in private and in person to answer my prayers and tell me how does he like his coffee and booze before that and everything else in between ❤
❤
He is so incredibly inspiring, I can’t get enough of it ❤
❤
Reminds me of George Carlin in that he practices selecting just the right words and the right analogies to shape the absurdities about which he speaks. The people he debates don't seem practiced in their arguments. They believe particular ideas without serious reflection. Lawyers understand how to anticipate the opposition and thus argue more effectively. Harris does likewise.
2 Peter 3:3-7 [3]Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts, [4]And saying, Where is the promise of his coming? for since the fathers fell asleep, all things continue as they were from the beginning of the creation. [5]For this they willingly are ignorant of, that by the word of God the heavens were of old, and the earth standing out of the water and in the water: [6]Whereby the world that then was, being overflowed with water, perished: [7]But the heavens and the earth, which are now, by the same word are kept in store, reserved unto fire against the day of judgment and perdition of ungodly men.
These are serious charges. So, is this man as forthcoming about the unpleasant, sometimes disturbing & disgusting content of his own character as he is about what he pronounces as that of people of faith? Has he released a book detailing the deceitful & repugnant conduct of his own private life ?
This man has a phenomenal capacity of naïveté about human nature! Does he not realize he is attempting to imitate the God whom he 'proves' is not there?!
Sam Harris, after all these years should have changed the thinking of the world by now.
Sam Harris is a gold !!
Watching Harris snap the claws off Shapiro's bickering swipes at logic was strangely satisfying.
I thought Sam and ppl like him was the start of a movement. But its 2024 and we've went backwards since Sam made these speeches.
Quando eu mudar de nacionalidade, vocês verão as distrações!
Well this is obviously false ... assume for the sake of argument no allegiance to "YHWH" and merely take "the deity" as being "The Tao" or "The Logos" or "even the Deist God "of Jefferson ... The laws of physics are what they are. Life is possible because of this. According to Sam's lights, every time a child gets sick or someone gets malaria, or tectonics move and cause a tsunami, what? the deity is supposed to suspend the laws of physics? that's just sloppy thinking. And its anti-rational and inconsistent logically. It's completely intellectually lazy to just say, "Well, I don't know how to reconcile the two so God (or whatever) just doesn't exist" The thing is, Sam is an educated PhD in neuroscience, and he fully knows that cancer is a mutation of information (telemere length mutation). He knows, furthermore, that it is a mutation of information using processes of entropy and noise upon which other physical systems make life on earth possible. So this is just polemics. He has no real point of substance, or refuses to engage with the philosophical hard problem, so he behaves philosophically like an 8th grader. Sam is (in this video at least) a complete bullshit artist. I suppose this is good for selling books though. There is no substantive argument "against" religion here , although those may be formulated, but this non-sense isn't it. Ah, if only God (or whatever) were as moral as Sam.
You’re deliberately taking his comments out of context. His arguments in this video are not “merely taking the deity as being the Tao” or any deist god. They are addressing the idea of a personal deity who is supposedly omnipotent, omniscient and omnibenevolent- the god that most monotheists believe is true. It seems like in order to address his arguments you’re deliberately strawmanning. Your comment should start “Assume for the sake of argument that Harris is saying something different so I can score points….”
I think that these days many believe the bible because if we are actually here alone and there is no 'god' saving the world, it is far too scary for them. It's a clinging onto something that can 'fix or help' us. Religion is definitely a fear based system.
@@Lenergyiskey358 now your OP would be based on your confirmation biased perception. Death is a fear for both atheists and theists so the thought of being no longer here doesn’t get solved with or without religion universally. Also there is a clinging to things being fixed by both atheists and theists. Note how there are some of both thinking that science can fix global warming - ironic because it was science that caused global warming. And you fail to realize that atheists also work from fear, atheists often use the concept of “if you believe in god you are stupid” and many atheists are afraid of being stupid. It’s a bit more of a self centered concern but one based on fear. You don’t want to acknowledge that these things are common to humans not just a group they belong to.
Move to Sweden then asshole
Haha
It bothers me greatly that I can only hit on "Like" once...
"If God is willing to prevent Evil but not able, then God is not omnipotent, if God is able but not willing, then God is malevolent...". Reductio Ad Absurdum - example, Greek Philosophy.
The age of subscribing to the dictates of Parables, Prose, Fantasies and Fables, prescribed by morality signalling hypocrites who presume to speak on behalf of a Celestial Patriarch, in whose "name" they cast aspersions, judgements, condemnations and prejudices, while claiming that these are "God's verdict", is over. Conciousness has recognised an authentic awareness of progressive, evolving knowledge, free from the conceit and contrivances of an ultimatum based superstitious hysteria, promoted by people who claim the authority of fabricated pieces of primeval Myth and Fiction, and want Humanity to believe, that these are "Divine", that I won't have, and it is the original repudiation. The first rebellion against mental slavery comes from saying ; it is Man-made, it is Not "Divine".... What is written in the Bible, Quran and Torah, is clearly not the best that Humanity is capable of in the ethical domain....
