I feel every post modern Christian goes through this experience if they stick to it throughout their childhood. I realized how bullshit religion was, I didn't believe anymore, I lost faith so I researched why I lost my will, and then I came back around and realized the wickedness of my own imagination is a lot less stable than the conception of God aka a perfect lord in my own mind and a perfect display of character to work off of.

It's so easy to be a naysayer/non-believer. It requires only doubt and little effort. In my life, I have a deep belief in God or a higher power, which requires openness and insight into actions by God that others would dismiss or ignore. God won't make you believe, or force you to acknowledge him, but asks for faith. There's no downside to living a life of a believer, but the atheist spins a web of negativity with NO upside. Make your own choice.

the title is delusional!

the universe doesn’t need a designer? what does it need then?

Him and Harris, biggest con artists on the 2010s. Harris caught lying in 4K. David wood breaks it down. Look into it if you are brave enough oh cowardly atheists

God is a Capitalist Fictional religious character & therefore is not present to care for 8 Billion mostly religious OVER-breeding Primates from Birth--Death, 0-99+ years old! SELF-Enslaved parroting Religious Zombies want EVERY shot in the ‘Glory hole’ 🕳️…as Capitalist profits on OVER-breeding Primates is sacred !

Still my top fave video clip of Christopher Hitchens. 💙💚💛💜

Turek seems more annoying every time I watch this debate.

“Since it is obviously inconceivable that all religions can be right, the most reasonable conclusion is that they are all wrong.” -Christopher Hitchens

Turek's Always Done An Anemic Job Of Making His Point.

OUCH!!

I get the impression, that, Mr Turek secretly agrees with Mr Hutchins.

I think the weakness in Hitch's first answer is that he opens the door to "society" deciding that murder of adults might be legitimate under some circumstances. After all, he concedes that the fetus is a human being, so he no longer can draw any lines based on age of the human being. Of course, society DOES legitimize murder in some situations - we call it the death penalty. But my guess would have been that Hitch opposed capital punishment. That is a guess though, so please someone correct me if I'm wrong.

But now those wonderful Indians are destroying monastaries. How is that one single bit better? No - I'm afraid almost EVERYONE turns out to be a hypocrite. It's bad when they do it - but it's ok when we do it, because... "we're right." I'm sorry - that does not work for me. The first tenet that civilization has to be based on is tolerance of others. Respect for their right to live their lives as they choose.

Well, Hitch's first answer isn't really an answer. Yes, we have a conscience. But the guy is asking WHY we have a conscience, if it's all just physical. My own answer to this is simple - I DON'T think it's all just molecules in motion. I think "mind" is the fundamental thing in reality, and "the physical world" is just the aggregate perceptions of our collective minds. We all KNOW - every single one of us knows - that it is possible to have perceptions of a very realistic physical world without there being ANY actual events going on in the physical world to create those perceptions. We call this DREAMING. So yes - mind can gen up perceptions just fine - there should be no debate about that. What this point of view DOES NOT REQUIRE is a deity. It doesn't rule out the possibility of one deity, or many deities, but it doesn't mandate that one or more exist. And it certainly doesn't give us a "story" about how such a deity or deities may have intervened in history. So I think our minds are something special, and they come equipped with a conscience (usually), and that's just how the world is - it's just as basic as any other thing we simply accept about the world because we can see it right in front of us. At any rate, if the question is an argument at all, it's an argument for the preeminence of mind - not for any particular theological paradigm. There is just no need to go all the way to either extreme position on this question. Of course if you wish to remain hard core materialist, then this particular question isn't a problem for you. You can just invoke evolution. We have a conscience because having them promotes our survival. Those of us who are born without them tend to get into trouble with their peers and get eliminated from the gene pool. Maybe not every single time, but often enough to make it relatively rare. Notice that it's not wholly eliminated - there are sociopaths and psychopaths among us. The process, be it because "minds or fundamental" or because of evolution, is not perfect. On the other hand, you could ask that if conscience is God given, why on Earth does he pass over some people? I guess that's one of those "mysteries of the big plan" that we don't get to be privy to.

" this shit is over." - Bobby hemmitt

Wild guess but id say the italian mafia took a distant back seat to the drug cartels a long time ago.

That’s an interesting response that I’ve heard before but fundamentally I still think there is validity to the initial question

"Mysticism is the claim to the perception of some other reality---other than the one in which we live---whose definitionis only that it is not natural, it is supernatural, and has to be perceivedby some form of unnatural or supernatural means." -Ayn Rand-

I don't have that daemon or what ever the fuck he says

I do not know and I do not care. This has become my mantra of late. Having lived for 70 years on this planet and having been interested and integral in my role as a human, I finally arrived at this place. I was involved and excited about two things early in life. Those two things were politics and religion. Around my forties I dropped out of both. I could see no reason for continuing in them.. After this, I had an epiphany that had been ruminating for decades in my mind. My conclusion was that since no one consulted anyone before being thrown into this thing called life, we could all be considered either prisoners or slaves or both. Therefore, I am not a citizen of any place and I do not care what happens to the human race. I am simply passing the time until the day when I am no more. Some have told me that my outlook is depressing and dismal. On the contrary, I have found it quite liberating. I do not have to wrestle with nor fear anything in this existence. I perceive it all as one would perceive going to the movies. It is simply entertainment.😀

God does not give you what you desire. I love when religious, Magic Jesus theologians, lose an argument, they quickly resort to pointless threats from a non exsistant being. "Apollo is waiting for the right momment to strike" "Posideon will cause a storm." "God wills it." And the BEST belief that a christian holds dear. "The father, son, and holy ghost are one." That is called multiple personality disorder.

This man was pure Class damn 😮

♦"Religion began when the first scoundrel met the first fool." ♦"Only fools revere the supernatural myths just bc a book claims itself to be the holy truth." ♦"The delusional religious fools are cocksure and the intelligent full of doubt." ♦"The religious believe by the millions what only lunatics could believe on their own." ♦"It's easier to fool people than to convince them that they have been fooled." ♦"It's difficult to free fools from the chains they revere."

Unfortunately in life, for many orators it's either style over substance or substance over style. Hitch was a rare breed who had style and substance together.

me tooo

I'm against abortion, but it is killing a child. I just disagree with people saying it's a parasite

Christopher is derived from the Greek name Christóforos, meaning “bearer of Christ.” This name is composed of two ideas: Christós ("Christ") and phero ("to bear, carry").

At the end when the guy said “God gives you what you desire”. I think a more accurate sentence would read “God gives you your desires”.

'Why don't you just stay at home?' I do...then you knock at my door and try and force your bronze age superstition upon me.

Why was that little sh*t Turek ever on the same stage as Hitchens?

He’s not arguing that abortion is a punishment like god destroying cities Abortion is to spare it the suffering usually of being deformed or having no quality of life..arguably, life be the punishment.

stalling, stalling, avoiding, avoiding etc etc

We’re still having this talk 2024 15 years and it’s got worse hitch was right

Ridiculous. Just pure baffle.

read science speaks by peter stoner and discover how wrong are atheists or perhaps read the bible

Hitchens is saying Islam plagiarises Christianity and Christianity plagiarises Judaism and he might possibly say that Judaism plagiarises an even earlier previous religion, what i dont understand is how far back can you keep saying that and what exactly lies at the beginning of that process..??? Serious question please answer..???

So what is his answer?

I never knew that nimrod debated Hitchens.

Missing you Hitch.

Photons have no Mass,Frank...so don't measure time or space..they are essentially infinite..

To say the Universe needs a Cause is a Fallacy of Composition..the Universe didn't come from Absolute Nothing..Frank and Craig are wrong

The Universe needs no Cause...The idiot Frank The Crank is a Liar ua-cam.com/video/gAD7H_dzOUM/v-deo.htmlsi=pHL2eBchJo_giLLV

A hero of multiculturalism and freedom! What we did to our allies the Kurds was appalling and there should have been consequences and tribunals.
