      I wonder how the christians would react if they actually read the old testament, where their god is alleged is to have ordered genocide. Repeatedly.

    If Boyle's Law for the Expansion of Gasses were to inspire genocide would that make it untrue? Of course not. This is an "argument from consequence", a logical fallacy. Things are not true because their consequences are desirable and things are not false because their consequences are undesirable. This kind of motivated reasoning is, in my opinion, one of the main ways in which religion encourages fallacious thinking.

    Social Darwinism is not Darwinism. As soon as I heard that term, I knew that AIG was full of it. Social Darwinism is largely the designation of a series of disparate social theorists who saw in Darwin's theories a "Scientific" vindication of their own theories of certain people or societies being more fit and therefore deserved their eventual superior status.

    • @dougt7580
      @dougt7580 Рік тому +1

      Correct. Darwin's ideas were hijacked by people who already believed the human species could be divided into "superior" and "inferior" races and used to further legitimize their belief. And in many of their cases the origin of their racist beliefs was the Bible, and asserting that human races are simply the descendants of the various sons of Noah. AIG is trying to lay the blame of social Darwinism on evolutionary theory to disguise the fact the real culprit is largely thanks to their stupid book of Bronze Age middle-eastern fairytales.

      Darwin's books were burned because in one of them, "the descent of man, and selection in relation to sex" (1871) he demolished both Gobineau's and Spencer's racisms. Hitler had little to do with the choice of books itself, it was done by various actors under the direction of Alfred Rosenberg.

Hearing that all these ppl had the same upbringings made me feel that innate trust. That kind that eases you like when you were a Christian meeting another Christian, & a lifer private school kid meeting another lifer private school kid. It's that solidarity that makes the conversation a tad easier when deprogramming your religion you were indoctrinated into

I have never met a Young Earth Creationist, I don’t think we have them over here and the concept is just absurd. Your and Aron Ra’s debunking is most amusing, in the shorter video format. Please keep the longer format for the serious anthropology.
