@@georgecrompton8663 It always amuses me how frequently I hear a flerfer with a British accent. It's like hearing an Ethiopian man with a Scottish accent. Possible but out of the ordinary.
@@ralfhaggstrom9862 Yes I think it did help. It gave anyone watching a good look at an alternative method of discussing this topic. It provided clear arguments that people can use to advance education and reason. So even if it had no effect on the caller that does not matter. Many watch this show. It only takes one moment of realisation about a point to pull some people out of the grip of their indoctrination and get them to look at things rationally. Matts way is good as well but more aggressive. So James is a nice counterpoint while still having some of the clarity of Matts logic.
I wonder if the short fuses of some of the more experienced commentators are simply because they've heard the same bad arguments 583 times. Well handled.
@Golden Knight no, I don't think so, unless you think Matt has become progressively more honest and self respectful. I'd say its the exhaustion of hearing the same stupid arguments year after year.
It's more like thousands of times, especially for Matt. Creationists don't update their arguments, most of them try to attack Darwin because they're completely ignorant of the mountains of scientific evidence accrued since Darwin.
@@88mphDrBrown yes and it's often worse than that. They have so little understanding of the scientific process and are so used to the religious mode of thinking that they think of a "darwinist" in the same way as they think of a "Christian"... a sort of devotional following of a dogma and its leader rather than an evidence based acceptance of a scientific theory.
Venom Supreme if you don’t believe in Jesus you go to hell it’s not rocket science, how could you compare religion with science? And how should we interpret, slavery, torture, misogynistic attitude against women that is in the Bible? Do I need a PhD in science to understand that? And by the way I’m so happy that you are having a good day cheers man.
Venom Supreme and by the way religious people have always been nutty, to believe a zombie story to be true, come on, the only way to believe that is by ignorance and physical threats.

I really enjoyed the conversation. I appreciate how the host was so respectful. This was a perfect example of how a conversation should be between two people who disagree.
I really like how my fellow Brit is trying , to understand the way the caller thinks, his point of view, and trying to explain to him why he's wrong without mockery, I think with indoctrination , you have to have sympathy, and try to reason with these People, this is refreshing.
This is one of those trite comments that no one is going to challenge _on principle…_ but in practice, I don’t think you realize how human we all are when it comes to the limits of our patience. If you personally can be this patient after years and years of dishonest and difficult callers, then good for you, truly. But I’d wager that most people don’t have that level and strength of patience, and that’s just reality.
I think this guest had incredible empathy and made real headway with the young man calling in. That was the best tack to take in this scenario, and the guest knocked it out of the park.
"God is real...and my evidence is in Genesis" Does he really think that he's the first guy to present that argument? Does he really believe that all atheists will go: Oh shit, I didn't know that. Thanks for clearing that up. Sadly, I think that's what he thought was gonna happen
~ Two years later, and still shameful to hear the nonsense the callers still bring in 2019! Thank you, Russell and James, and please keep up the great work and keeping a level head and patience with willful ignorance. BTW, Most Saints fans are educated, and as I grew up in New Orleans, I sincerely apologize for the caller from that great city. Cheers, DAVEDJ ~
Their expressions were hilarious. They were waiting for him to give his evidence, and you could see the thought process: "Okay, he's naming some Bible verses in order to lay the foundation and now he's going to give his...wait, that was it?"
I know this is an old video, but i would love to see James Croft make more appearances on AXP and Talk Heathen. Unlike some people (Matt), he doesn't start an argument with the caller and yell at him and beat him down. He listens to the caller, and before he challenges him, just asks him some questions. And he treats him with total respect. THIS is a prime example of what we atheists need more of in the community.
I like the technique of questioning out a deconstruction of beliefs instead of stating alternatives. James Croft is an excellent host. He even left the caller validated in his beliefs. More flies with honey......
I really like the empathetic and respectful way the English fellow interacted with this caller and the way he genuinely seemed to try and understand the callers experience and position. I think this approach can be more beneficial in promoting meaningful discussion.
“And what do you think about the countless scientific evidence that shows us the earth is much older than 6,000 years?” “Well that evidence has to be proven to me...” but he doesn’t need his bible evidence proven to him 😔🤦♂️🤦♂️
I'm game, dear boy!! *“Why everyone is a Creationist.”* and thus a believer in God. Whether one asserts a young or old earth, random mutations Vs design, evolution, fine-tuning or chaos, *my major premise is: we inevitably must all be Creationists* Creation(ism) the buzz word of critics, is broadly defined as a belief that a supernatural reality brought into existence all time, space and matter by an act of freewill. Cynics mostly materialists and evolutionists, believe also on faith, that the natural world is all there is, or ever was. Proponents cleverly but fallaciously, centre their attack on fundamentalist religion, which maintains a young earth and a literal 6 day creation. Whether one comes from an atheist or theistic worldview however, we can only explain “why there is something now rather than nothing” from a faith perspective. Darwinian Evolution Vs Creation is of course a false dichotomy since the former says absolutely nothing about origins (creation). *The true debate is really about Darwinism Vs Religion.* Moreover, the former is moot in addressing the fundamental question of origins and existence, as I assert in premise 1) below. 1) There are only two possibilities: For anything to exists now, some previous physical state or states, a) have existed eternally in the past, or b) were created ex nihilo (i.e from nothing in the finite past) This is a *religiously neutral* observation but has profound implications from a metaphysical or transcendent explanation. 2) In whatever past configuration, matter/energy must exist in dimensions of time and space. 3) Position 1b) is the consensus of science (cosmology), mathematics, philosophy (logic) and reason. 4) For atheism to be the default position, then some form of matter/energy must have always existed (be eternal in the past) But this claim I will assert, is not supported by the evidence nor logically possible. 5) *Mathematician* and genius inventor, Dave Hilbert asserts that Infinity [as in infinite past time] is just an abstract idea. *Infinity neither exists in nature nor provides the basis for rational thought.”* An infinite future while a possibility, would be a *potential* infinite but an infinite past if it existed, would be an *actual* infinite. If you dont support Hilbert’s several arguments that there is nothing in the natural realm that can be identified as an actual infinite, I’d like to hear it! 6) Having abandoned his static model *Einstein’s cosmology* embraced the theory of relativity which identified an absolute beginning for all space/time. Atheist cosmologists like Hawking and Krauss recognising the implications of this theory, have retreated into the realm of fantasy to invent natural explanations of how everything came from absolutely nothing in the finitude of past time. There versions of nothing is actually some thing which is refuted by 2) above! 7) *Philosophically* nothing is non existence. An infinite past would demand an infinite regress of past physical states (including the unproven multi-verse theory -See BVG theorem). Moreover, any collection formed by successive temporal events cannot be an actual infinite. Infinity is just a abstract concept, one whose value can never be attained. Moreover, one cannot bridge an infinite amount of time since all available evidence shows time travels linearly. If time was infinite in the past, logically we could never have reached this current point in time (the impossibility of transiting an infinite regress of past events). Ergo the finitude of past time demands a creation event. *Conclusions* 1) From any worldview perspective,, the birth of creation from nothing is a miracle that denies scientific explanation. As such we must ALL believe in a “virgin birth” aka existence from no existence. 2) Unless one wants to entertain mindless electrons and protons as the basis of ultimate reality, one is left with the only plausible alternative i.e. ex nihilo creation. Since X cannot create X, the physical realm cannot create itself nor can an abstract Law like gravity cause or create anything (sorry Dr Hawking), Nor Krauss’s quantum vacuum, which is not nothing! 3) One is inevitably left with a cause outside of time space and matter. That is a spaceless, timeless immaterial (and thus a supernatural) reality.) 4) In choosing to create an awe-inspiring, abstract law-abiding, mathematically defined, rationally-intelligible universe, its cause must be rationally intelligent, powerful and personal. 5) Moreover, by creating an incredibly complex, conscious, intelligent being like us, who can question his own existence, marvel at the beauty and biodiversity of creation, with intelligence to decipher its laws and the exquisite math’ that underpins those laws, this is not just any deity, this is a God who cares, who created us and the universe for a purpose. 6) *Whether a certain chapter of a religious text is to be read literally or allegorical is irrelevant to God’s existence and role in Creation.* Clearly Galileo was right in declaring *_the Bible teaches us how to go to heaven, not how the heavens go* Moreover, dear friends, the Bible is a library of books containing many literary genre but was never meant to be a book on science. 7) To cynically suggest Creation in Genesis may have taught an obsessed Darwinian disciple, real science is quite laughable. A science that is “counter-intuitive”, dependent on biased assumptions about homology, numerous fakes, huge gaps in fossil records without any evidence of how life started, a rejection of design and based on dubious historical evidence, is hardly factual. 8) Just how God may have chosen to create man, such as “from the dust of the earth” is irrelevant to His motives and purpose. Moreover, the fact we’re still in the 7th day of Creation would imply a non-literal interpretation of such events!! 9) Moreover, the level of sophistication, design, embedded information and intelligibility in all aspects of creation, totally destroys any suggestion it all came about by blind, random, unguided and mindless processes. The choice is simple: Faith-based common descent or a common DESIGNER. Deep down we all know which is the more believable worldview. 10) Lastly, can anyone truly live out Dawkins’ claim we’re just slaves to a selfish bunch of genes living a purposeless life of pitiless indifference? Everything that truly human nature cant be isolated in a test tube like: beauty, joy, love, wisdom, truth, morality, justice, meaning, hope and destiny, From all the evidence above, I just don’t have enough faith to believe mindless matter is the only game in town! And deep down I believe you don’t either!!
@@byteme9718 -- Yes, but did you read the twist and turn, stream of consciousness he cut and pasted? Ok, i only got through half the first paragraph, but i'm sure he actually wrote it.
Matt would have stopped him cold right after his opening assertion and asked him how he knows the bible is true. Then he would have pinned him down on the question whether faith is a reliable path to truth. Matt is great, although I like Tracy even better. She also pins checkmates the believers quickly but somehow manages to remain nice while doing it.
Sometimes it is about what is best for the caller. Matt is fun to watch as a spectator because he destroys the caller. These hosts take another approach, a more subtle and maybe one which trigger critical thinking better in certain types of believers.
I'm actually not a fan of the more aggressive tactics that Matt uses. I think these two being much calmer and more willing to explore what things mean is more beneficial. The trouble with Matt is while he is correct in most of his assertions, many people don't learn from just being shouted at or cornered, no matter how "stupid" they might be. It's like a kid believing in fairy tales, you don't shout at them, you explain to them calmly about reality. Tracy is good too for sure, but Matt is definitely too assertive for my personal preferences.
@@Spamhard exactly. He has good reasons for what he believes to be good arguments (which they are) but those arguments aren't necessarily good for the caller or religious viewers. Forgive my phrasing I'm going on 3 hours of sleep for two days in a row.

The Young Earther must, by necessity, and by the same standards of scriptural acceptance that they use, believe in a Square or Rectangular Flat Earth under a domed ceiling ("the vault of Heaven"). (Remember, the 'four corners of the Earth', and the 'ends of the Earth'). Sad.
Look up the meaning of 'vaulted ceiling'. Or roof. Unless you want them to apply the other definition of 'a secure box (usually underground)'? Now that would REALLY be bizarro. Think how they would try to turn themselves inside out arguing that we are in God's Big Underground Box! Ha! Priceless.

Jeez, we all have dreams and detailed thoughts about things going on in our life, often related to problems with other people at work, family members or situations causing us stress, anxiety, etc. I In my recent experiences, I woke up suddenly with this overwhelming, crystal clear course of action for the larger issue stressing me out. To be completely honest, I already knew the 'right' answer, but didn't want to do it for other reasons, but still knew the 'right' answer would be correct in the long run. This inner conflict and stress is why I had multiple "dreams" about it. This is just normal human stuff. Nothing supernatural about it.
Pureflix is spammed in basically every video that even mentions any religion. Im so annoyed by it. As if there wasnt enough religious programming out there already.
In the first chapter of the Silmarillion it says that the world was created when Melkor went against the divine song of the other Valar and their discordance spilled over into the void and took a form of its own. Clearly that's irrefutable evidence that we should all give our praises to the great Illuvatar.

It's weird to me how creationists are so sure carbon dating doesn't work and always go to that point with no evidence that it is true, and yet they also are somehow always unaware that carbon dating is just 1 of many different types of dating methods they use, and that if carbon dating says something is say 20,000 years old, that there are other dating methods that can be applied to that that will also say it is about 20,000 years old. Of course scientists don't only have 1 and only use 1 dating method otherwise we wouldn't be able to tell how accurate it is.
If a supreme being made a book for the purpose of guiding humanity, it would be clear, easy to understand and make sense. The Bible is none of those things.
Though I grew uo religious, I remember the story of Moses best from the interprative Dreamworks film. Concerning the scene with the staffs turning into snakes, I assumed that the two guys knew sleight of hand and the art of distraction (I know there’s a better word, but it’s late). So yeah, the guys knew some fancy tricks to fool the people, and Moses used ACTUAL magic.
Just how f appealing..... This guy has direct talk with Jesus But somehow Jesus, God etc remained silent here millions of people begged to be saved. Yet there was silence and millions perished in Concentration camps. As one victim written: "If there is a God, It will be for MY mercy"
The point of peer review is that anyone scientist can verify the claims of another scientist and there must have to be a giant cover up to let the entire scientific community remain silent about the incorrectness of a paper, even more because there would unlikely be a reason to do that! Moreover, if a scientist were caught lying about that, his career would be over!

Did I just watch a psychology session? The caller at least got a nice counseling
But did it help ? .....................
@@ralfhaggstrom9862 Yes I think it did help. It gave anyone watching a good look at an alternative method of discussing this topic. It provided clear arguments that people can use to advance education and reason.
So even if it had no effect on the caller that does not matter. Many watch this show. It only takes one moment of realisation about a point to pull some people out of the grip of their indoctrination and get them to look at things rationally.
Matts way is good as well but more aggressive. So James is a nice counterpoint while still having some of the clarity of Matts logic.
@@VestigialHead You are right. But I mostly thought about that DEXXXXXX caller. ................
I must have missed this episode. I've never seen the guy on the left! Keep it up, fellas.
Yeah that dude seems cool.
This is new to me as well. I hope we get more .
he's made a couple of other unrelated videos.

@@daleandrews9356 The earth really *is* flat, good to know.
I wonder if the short fuses of some of the more experienced commentators are simply because they've heard the same bad arguments 583 times. Well handled.
It's gotta be, the further back I go on these videos they seem much more patient.
@Golden Knight no, I don't think so, unless you think Matt has become progressively more honest and self respectful. I'd say its the exhaustion of hearing the same stupid arguments year after year.
It's more like thousands of times, especially for Matt. Creationists don't update their arguments, most of them try to attack Darwin because they're completely ignorant of the mountains of scientific evidence accrued since Darwin.
@@88mphDrBrown yes and it's often worse than that. They have so little understanding of the scientific process and are so used to the religious mode of thinking that they think of a "darwinist" in the same way as they think of a "Christian"... a sort of devotional following of a dogma and its leader rather than an evidence based acceptance of a scientific theory.
My brain would melt after a year of being a regular host on this show
I honestly feel sorry for the damage that religion do to people.
Venom Supreme You are free, isn’t enough reason to be happy?
Venom Supreme if you don’t believe in Jesus you go to hell it’s not rocket science, how could you compare religion with science? And how should we interpret, slavery, torture, misogynistic attitude against women that is in the Bible? Do I need a PhD in science to understand that? And by the way I’m so happy that you are having a good day cheers man.
Venom Supreme and by the way religious people have always been nutty, to believe a zombie story to be true, come on, the only way to believe that is by ignorance and physical threats.
Well that is NOT what your bible says. Do Muslims go to hell do Buddhist to go to hell? Get your pseudo facts right.
I feel sorry for the damage religion does to society as a whole.
The British man is so lovely, genuine and patient. 💜
It's like a scientist explaining how an engine works to a slug.
Scientist: I got a gizmo here. With this gizmo you can travel 75 miles in an hour.
Slug: 75 mph? Fuck off. Not even possible. And if you moved that fast, the wind alone would kill you.
It’s not the explaining that’s the problem.
It’s the lack of understanding.
I recently removed the shell from my racing snail to make him faster…if anything, it made him more sluggish.
I really enjoyed the conversation. I appreciate how the host was so respectful. This was a perfect example of how a conversation should be between two people who disagree.
This British guy is off the charts good.
This guy with the glasses is amazing. He is so gentle and discerning. I love it.

But I have faith it's evidence. *pikachuface*
This caller is a scary example of how badly people can think ... or not think about things.
I really like how my fellow Brit is trying , to understand the way the caller thinks, his point of view, and trying to explain to him why he's wrong without mockery, I think with indoctrination , you have to have sympathy, and try to reason with these People, this is refreshing.
Who decides when to be tolerant and when not to be?
Where is the line?
This is one of those trite comments that no one is going to challenge _on principle…_ but in practice, I don’t think you realize how human we all are when it comes to the limits of our patience. If you personally can be this patient after years and years of dishonest and difficult callers, then good for you, truly. But I’d wager that most people don’t have that level and strength of patience, and that’s just reality.
I think this guest had incredible empathy and made real headway with the young man calling in. That was the best tack to take in this scenario, and the guest knocked it out of the park.
This conversation is going right over this guys head.
I’d wager every conversation ever does.
Young earth creationism: a damning indictment on the US education system.
James is fast becoming one of my favourite AXP presenters!
"God is real...and my evidence is in Genesis"
Does he really think that he's the first guy to present that argument? Does he really believe that all atheists will go: Oh shit, I didn't know that. Thanks for clearing that up.
Sadly, I think that's what he thought was gonna happen
I love this kind of conversation. No condescending tone and no berating comments. This is what i call an argument.
Yeah until you hear the same crazy cap for the 500 the time!
~ Two years later, and still shameful to hear the nonsense the callers still bring in 2019! Thank you, Russell and James, and please keep up the great work and keeping a level head and patience with willful ignorance. BTW, Most Saints fans are educated, and as I grew up in New Orleans, I sincerely apologize for the caller from that great city. Cheers, DAVEDJ ~
Their expressions were hilarious. They were waiting for him to give his evidence, and you could see the thought process: "Okay, he's naming some Bible verses in order to lay the foundation and now he's going to give his...wait, that was it?"
Young Earth Creationist: "I have a personal relationship with jesus."
Jesus: "Whats a young earth creationist?"
Or a relationship with me…😂
Could have just asked the caller where he thought gasoline came from
james' british politeness and pleasant composure shines through brilliantly here... 👍
It’s nice to see different approaches with these callers. Hopefully reaches as many people as possible.
I know this is an old video, but i would love to see James Croft make more appearances on AXP and Talk Heathen. Unlike some people (Matt), he doesn't start an argument with the caller and yell at him and beat him down. He listens to the caller, and before he challenges him, just asks him some questions. And he treats him with total respect. THIS is a prime example of what we atheists need more of in the community.
"Here's PROOF that the biblical version of events is true! It says so here!"
"Says so where?"
"Here! In the Bible!"
Sure. You've converted me...
I rele appreciate the engagement here.
I like the technique of questioning out a deconstruction of beliefs instead of stating alternatives. James Croft is an excellent host. He even left the caller validated in his beliefs. More flies with honey......
Took the words out of my mouth.
I love this part and how they handle the situation, they are essentially trying to ask this guy to think about it himself
I love this British guy!

I really like the empathetic and respectful way the English fellow interacted with this caller and the way he genuinely seemed to try and understand the callers experience and position. I think this approach can be more beneficial in promoting meaningful discussion.
If I was obeying things from my dreams, I'd be in jail.
These people who claim to have "a personal relationship with jesus" have nothing more than a two-way conversation with themselves.
That's true. And prayer is just a sophisticated way of talking to your own damn mind
"It might seem circular to you, but it makes perfect sense."

You guys are so polite.

“And what do you think about the countless scientific evidence that shows us the earth is much older than 6,000 years?” “Well that evidence has to be proven to me...” but he doesn’t need his bible evidence proven to him 😔🤦♂️🤦♂️
LOL Russell Glasser is hilarious! Great host
Straight to Genesis Chapter 1 verse one for "proof" of God. This has to be the most damaged caller ever.
I'm game, dear boy!! *“Why everyone is a Creationist.”* and thus a believer in God. Whether one asserts a young or old earth, random mutations Vs design, evolution, fine-tuning or chaos, *my major premise is: we inevitably must all be Creationists* Creation(ism) the buzz word of critics, is broadly defined as a belief that a supernatural reality brought into existence all time, space and matter by an act of freewill. Cynics mostly materialists and evolutionists, believe also on faith, that the natural world is all there is, or ever was. Proponents cleverly but fallaciously, centre their attack on fundamentalist religion, which maintains a young earth and a literal 6 day creation. Whether one comes from an atheist or theistic worldview however, we can only explain “why there is something now rather than nothing” from a faith perspective. Darwinian Evolution Vs Creation is of course a false dichotomy since the former says absolutely nothing about origins (creation). *The true debate is really about Darwinism Vs Religion.* Moreover, the former is moot in addressing the fundamental question of origins and existence, as I assert in premise 1) below. 1) There are only two possibilities: For anything to exists now, some previous physical state or states, a) have existed eternally in the past, or b) were created ex nihilo (i.e from nothing in the finite past) This is a *religiously neutral* observation but has profound implications from a metaphysical or transcendent explanation. 2) In whatever past configuration, matter/energy must exist in dimensions of time and space. 3) Position 1b) is the consensus of science (cosmology), mathematics, philosophy (logic) and reason. 4) For atheism to be the default position, then some form of matter/energy must have always existed (be eternal in the past) But this claim I will assert, is not supported by the evidence nor logically possible. 5) *Mathematician* and genius inventor, Dave Hilbert asserts that Infinity [as in infinite past time] is just an abstract idea. *Infinity neither exists in nature nor provides the basis for rational thought.”* An infinite future while a possibility, would be a *potential* infinite but an infinite past if it existed, would be an *actual* infinite. If you dont support Hilbert’s several arguments that there is nothing in the natural realm that can be identified as an actual infinite, I’d like to hear it! 6) Having abandoned his static model *Einstein’s cosmology* embraced the theory of relativity which identified an absolute beginning for all space/time. Atheist cosmologists like Hawking and Krauss recognising the implications of this theory, have retreated into the realm of fantasy to invent natural explanations of how everything came from absolutely nothing in the finitude of past time. There versions of nothing is actually some thing which is refuted by 2) above! 7) *Philosophically* nothing is non existence. An infinite past would demand an infinite regress of past physical states (including the unproven multi-verse theory -See BVG theorem). Moreover, any collection formed by successive temporal events cannot be an actual infinite. Infinity is just a abstract concept, one whose value can never be attained. Moreover, one cannot bridge an infinite amount of time since all available evidence shows time travels linearly. If time was infinite in the past, logically we could never have reached this current point in time (the impossibility of transiting an infinite regress of past events). Ergo the finitude of past time demands a creation event.
*Conclusions* 1) From any worldview perspective,, the birth of creation from nothing is a miracle that denies scientific explanation. As such we must ALL believe in a “virgin birth” aka existence from no existence. 2) Unless one wants to entertain mindless electrons and protons as the basis of ultimate reality, one is left with the only plausible alternative i.e. ex nihilo creation. Since X cannot create X, the physical realm cannot create itself nor can an abstract Law like gravity cause or create anything (sorry Dr Hawking), Nor Krauss’s quantum vacuum, which is not nothing! 3) One is inevitably left with a cause outside of time space and matter. That is a spaceless, timeless immaterial (and thus a supernatural) reality.) 4) In choosing to create an awe-inspiring, abstract law-abiding, mathematically defined, rationally-intelligible universe, its cause must be rationally intelligent, powerful and personal. 5) Moreover, by creating an incredibly complex, conscious, intelligent being like us, who can question his own existence, marvel at the beauty and biodiversity of creation, with intelligence to decipher its laws and the exquisite math’ that underpins those laws, this is not just any deity, this is a God who cares, who created us and the universe for a purpose. 6) *Whether a certain chapter of a religious text is to be read literally or allegorical is irrelevant to God’s existence and role in Creation.* Clearly Galileo was right in declaring *_the Bible teaches us how to go to heaven, not how the heavens go* Moreover, dear friends, the Bible is a library of books containing many literary genre but was never meant to be a book on science. 7) To cynically suggest Creation in Genesis may have taught an obsessed Darwinian disciple, real science is quite laughable. A science that is “counter-intuitive”, dependent on biased assumptions about homology, numerous fakes, huge gaps in fossil records without any evidence of how life started, a rejection of design and based on dubious historical evidence, is hardly factual. 8) Just how God may have chosen to create man, such as “from the dust of the earth” is irrelevant to His motives and purpose. Moreover, the fact we’re still in the 7th day of Creation would imply a non-literal interpretation of such events!! 9) Moreover, the level of sophistication, design, embedded information and intelligibility in all aspects of creation, totally destroys any suggestion it all came about by blind, random, unguided and mindless processes. The choice is simple: Faith-based common descent or a common DESIGNER. Deep down we all know which is the more believable worldview. 10) Lastly, can anyone truly live out Dawkins’ claim we’re just slaves to a selfish bunch of genes living a purposeless life of pitiless indifference? Everything that truly human nature cant be isolated in a test tube like: beauty, joy, love, wisdom, truth, morality, justice, meaning, hope and destiny, From all the evidence above, I just don’t have enough faith to believe mindless matter is the only game in town! And deep down I believe you don’t either!!

James displays extreme patience here
Guy has no idea what evidence is. Hope he never serves on a jury.
Matt would have stopped him cold right after his opening assertion and asked him how he knows the bible is true. Then he would have pinned him down on the question whether faith is a reliable path to truth. Matt is great, although I like Tracy even better. She also pins checkmates the believers quickly but somehow manages to remain nice while doing it.
Sometimes it is about what is best for the caller. Matt is fun to watch as a spectator because he destroys the caller. These hosts take another approach, a more subtle and maybe one which trigger critical thinking better in certain types of believers.
I'm actually not a fan of the more aggressive tactics that Matt uses. I think these two being much calmer and more willing to explore what things mean is more beneficial. The trouble with Matt is while he is correct in most of his assertions, many people don't learn from just being shouted at or cornered, no matter how "stupid" they might be. It's like a kid believing in fairy tales, you don't shout at them, you explain to them calmly about reality. Tracy is good too for sure, but Matt is definitely too assertive for my personal preferences.
@@Spamhard exactly. He has good reasons for what he believes to be good arguments (which they are) but those arguments aren't necessarily good for the caller or religious viewers. Forgive my phrasing I'm going on 3 hours of sleep for two days in a row.
@@lazyh-online4839 Yeah, agreed. If you're just looking for someone to "get dunked on", Matt is alright. But he's definitely not swaying many minds, he's mostly preaching to the already converted (if you'll excuse the phrasing, lol).

James has a very interesting accent....It seems to have a lot of different places merged into it. Mostly various combinations of English dialect, but I could even hear a few Americanised twinges.
So much better tan Matt refusing to listen to his callers

The Young Earther must, by necessity, and by the same standards of scriptural acceptance that they use, believe in a Square or Rectangular Flat Earth under a domed ceiling ("the vault of Heaven"). (Remember, the 'four corners of the Earth', and the 'ends of the Earth'). Sad.
Look up the meaning of 'vaulted ceiling'. Or roof. Unless you want them to apply the other definition of 'a secure box (usually underground)'? Now that would REALLY be bizarro. Think how they would try to turn themselves inside out arguing that we are in God's Big Underground Box! Ha! Priceless.
Not sure where the observation was from, and whether he was observing it himself, but also possible (if far enough North), Aurora Borealis.
The 'four corners of the Earth' refer to four quadrants on a disk-shaped Earth. The Bible says the Earth is a circle.

Jeez, we all have dreams and detailed thoughts about things going on in our life, often related to problems with other people at work, family members or situations causing us stress, anxiety, etc. I In my recent experiences, I woke up suddenly with this overwhelming, crystal clear course of action for the larger issue stressing me out. To be completely honest, I already knew the 'right' answer, but didn't want to do it for other reasons, but still knew the 'right' answer would be correct in the long run. This inner conflict and stress is why I had multiple "dreams" about it. This is just normal human stuff. Nothing supernatural about it.
It would have been nice had the hosts gone into details countering YEC assertions.
If you don't believe in carbon dating it doesn't matter because I can just have faith that it's true and you have to respect my belief.

WHY did a pureflix ad come up before this video 😂
Pureflix is spammed in basically every video that even mentions any religion. Im so annoyed by it. As if there wasnt enough religious programming out there already.
Those ads are exceedingly annoying. However hilarious their subject matter may be.
In the first chapter of the Silmarillion it says that the world was created when Melkor went against the divine song of the other Valar and their discordance spilled over into the void and took a form of its own. Clearly that's irrefutable evidence that we should all give our praises to the great Illuvatar.

The hosts were using too many big words for this caller.
It's weird to me how creationists are so sure carbon dating doesn't work and always go to that point with no evidence that it is true, and yet they also are somehow always unaware that carbon dating is just 1 of many different types of dating methods they use, and that if carbon dating says something is say 20,000 years old, that there are other dating methods that can be applied to that that will also say it is about 20,000 years old. Of course scientists don't only have 1 and only use 1 dating method otherwise we wouldn't be able to tell how accurate it is.
If a supreme being made a book for the purpose of guiding humanity, it would be clear, easy to understand and make sense. The Bible is none of those things.
“You found a thing that proves what you think?” Hahahaha

Though I grew uo religious, I remember the story of Moses best from the interprative Dreamworks film. Concerning the scene with the staffs turning into snakes, I assumed that the two guys knew sleight of hand and the art of distraction (I know there’s a better word, but it’s late). So yeah, the guys knew some fancy tricks to fool the people, and Moses used ACTUAL magic.
Just how f appealing.....
This guy has direct talk with Jesus
But somehow Jesus, God etc remained silent here millions of people begged to be saved.
Yet there was silence and millions perished in Concentration camps.
As one victim written: "If there is a God, It will be for MY mercy"
The point of peer review is that anyone scientist can verify the claims of another scientist and there must have to be a giant cover up to let the entire scientific community remain silent about the incorrectness of a paper, even more because there would unlikely be a reason to do that! Moreover, if a scientist were caught lying about that, his career would be over!
I am not going to throw sticks at the ground any more, just in case.
