    Unbelief, too, is rooted, not in proofs and arguments, but in the heart. In this respect believers and unbelievers are in exactly the same position. Their convictions are integrally bound up with their whole personality and are only a posteriori supported by proofs and arguments. And now, when the two parties oppose each other with these a posteriori proofs and arguments, the position of believers is not less favorable than that of unbelievers. God is sufficiently knowable to those who seek him and also sufficiently hidden to those who run away from him. “There is enough light for those who only desire to see and enough darkness for those of a contrary disposition. There is enough clarity to illumine the elect and enough darkness to humble them. There is enough darkness to render the reprobate sightless and enough clarity to condemn them and to render them inexcusable.”

      -“Unbelief, too, is rooted, not in proofs and arguments, but in the heart.“
      Blood and muscles are in my heart. No unbelief is found there.
      -“In this respect believers and unbelievers are in exactly the same position.“
      All you are really saying here is “we believe what we believe and don’t believe what we do not believe.” Sure, we are the same in that respect. But that says virtually nothing.
      -“Their convictions are integrally bound up with their whole personality and are only a posteriori supported by proofs and arguments.“
      Proofs have nothing to do with it. Proof is a math thing. Arguments do matter, although I find many theists do not offer arguments. They offer appeals to faith and personal revelation. The arguments that are occasionally provided are demonstrably false or fallacious at worst and unconvincing to most people who don’t already believe at best.
      -“the position of believers is not less favorable than that of unbelievers.“
      I would say it is quite less favorable. We have about as much evidence for God as we do for Bigfoot, maybe even less. There seems to be a huge disconnect in standards between peoples’ theological beliefs and the more mundane beliefs they have about what’s happening in their day to day lives.
      -“God is sufficiently knowable to those who seek him and also sufficiently hidden to those who run away from him.”
      How do you explain apostasy? How do you explain people who have genuinely searched, who have hit their knees and asked for answers, yet still cannot find good reasons to believe?

    Good video, but at 27:11 you should keep following the description of what is moving the car drilling down into quantum physics. Science can not tell us how the car is ultimately moving or what matter even is. Science can only describe what matter does and how it can be manipulated. We as western Christians need to revisit the concept of fundamental energy back out of matter and attribute it to God alone. Paul declares energy (eternal ability to do work) is evidence of God working in creation. Romans 1:20 "His Eternal power and divine nature clearly perceived in creation."
    That is why we witness a dead initial creation in genesis, and dead created Adam. Eternal energy and life is Gods attribute, energy is not equal to matter, rather matter contains energy, they are separate things. Said another way, with out God nothing moves, or is alive. Christian cosmology is exactly opposite of secular. Secular cosmology starts with in actual infinite substance containing all the energy in the universe called the singularity. Secular cosmology progresses from light to dark, energetic to entropy. Christian cosmology is opposite; it starts with Dark, Void Chaos then progresses towards light, fullness, Law as God applies more power into the universe.

    Most people unthinkingly accept the false premise that the opposing categories are religion and atheism. The actual categories are true religion (historical biblical Christianity) and false religions (including atheism). Atheism and other false religions produce oppression, abuse, perversion, cruelty. Biblical Christianity has produced freedom, charity, protection of and respect for women and children, care for the sick and elderly, etc. It's ridiculous to claim that Christianity is barbaric simply because islam is barbaric; there's no connection. There *is* a close connection between atheism and mohammedanism-- And both are oppressive because they oppose God and His law, and reject His Son and the Gospel. Those who reject God can't help but lie about the facts of history; they have to maintain their delusion.

    In atheism you cannot account for unchanging laws of logic or objective truth and morality. The rejection of the truth of God is utter folly. Why do people reject God? Because we do not want to be accountable to His rule and reign over our lives. God must first change our hearts through the hearing of the gospel message: that Jesus Christ, the God-man, came into the world to save sinners. When our rebellious hearts are changed then we will acknowledge the truth of God and willingly submit our lives to King Jesus. Friends, repent and believe the gospel!

      Theists are ignorant because they need an invisible external being to tell them what is right and what is wrong. They are incapable of figuring that out themselves.

      The god of the bible says one thing. The god of the islam says another thing. Krishna, another, Ganesha, Bramah, Kali etc., another. And that’s how theists all around the world fight each other over whose god is the real one, while they threaten atheists with hell and brimstone depicted in each of the different books they believe holy.

    Great video, but the part about homosexuality, transexualism (not transvestitism) is erroneous.
    Homosexuality is not a disorder because of the vast amount of evidence proving it to be a natural mechanism in nearly all species. There is a chromosomal and hormonal disposition regarding homosexuality. The same goes for transexualism.
    It doesn't take a miracle to know this, this is well established.

    This was an interesting video, I had never heard of the cult of reason before I'll have to look into it.
    There is a point at the end that I take issue with. After correctly identifying Dawkins morality as bankrupt for it's support of infanticide, cannibalism and the like. You claim that we cannot judge the morality of God. You assert that a god would be moral and just if he cast every liar to the eternal flame.
    Such a position is ludicrous, God is a just and loving God. This does not square with a being who would inflict endless torment on a rudementary being such as myself who told a lie out of fear or to spare the feelings of a loved one. Even if I had told a lie out of malice it would not be worthy of an hour let alone an eternity of torment
    I readily admit that I am not worthy of heaven, but any god that found me worthy of hell could be nothing but a heartless and evil monster worthy of disdain and rebellion rather than worship.
    The good news is that the true God, the God of the Bible, the God of Abraham and Jacob, the Creator of the Universe. Is not a god of torture but a God of Love who causes the rain to fall in the wicked as well as the righteous.

      Jason Kehoe - your assertion that science comes from god lacks a very important t detail... evidence.
      Science exists as a man made process to which things can be proven to a high degree of certainty after applying repeatable test after repeatable test until to the point where the testing produces the same result again and again. No god can even make it through the first round of scientific scrutiny and testing because no sufficient evidence has been presented that would allow further testing.
      Contrary evidence is about the closest you will find. Contrary evidence being that numerous other faiths profess a belief and faith in a deity, using similar language and similar emotional based rationale as all religions do.
      There’s plenty of evidence for man made gods dating back to early humans. There has yet to be sufficient evidence to prove any particular god. Asserting knowledge of a god, which you further asserted created science, is a baseless, unprovable claim because you cannot prove the existence of the god that you claim created science.
      You don’t get to inject a figment of your imagination in front of the timeline of human existence and invention of science and assert - without evidence - that this god of yours did it
