      But God isn’t a morally perfect being, even if we grant his existence.

      Hitchens should just say
      “i don’t know what created the universe, but just because it is an unknown i am not going to give credit to the nearest deity.”

      Then you and hitchens are one in the same, except for the wit, of course.

      Fat man waddling past at 6:49 sums up the fool on Hitchen’s right.

      Mentally inept? “kind of hope of?” Use the spell check and ‘try’ not to look like such a dumbass. Saying YT is a heaven for posters to have hope of legitimacy, then make your own post attempting to gain the same legitimacy you’ve shown such disdain for? Hypocrite much?

      Shew fly, don’t bother me.

      Youtube seems to be a haven for mentally inept jesters like you to have some kind of hope of legitamcy in a fraction of the useless garbage you spout.

    9. observer75 Says:

      Hitchens is so …
      Hitchens is so ignorant, limited, and earth bound. If it weren’t for his wit, he wouldn’t have any supporters. Luckily he can toss a funny or two out once and while and retain his dopey comedy central educated audience.

    10. sk8progression Says:

      Can you blame …
      Can you blame anyone of them? After the postulation of such absurd, beyond doubt assertions made by every religious practice known to man as if they were demonstrable fact. Then to say they have authority over YOU because they have God on their side? Are you suggesting Muslims have the RIGHT to kill you if you break the rules of THEIR holy book? Do you see the reason for the animosity? How angry does it make you feel to know that there are people who believe they have divine authority over you?

    11. zero33AD Says:

      You know what, …
      You know what, you’re absolutely right. Im sorry, I kinda lost it a bit. I just feel strongly about what I believe, and I see so much animosity towards Christians on YT.

    12. sk8progression Says:

      Do you even read …
      Do you even read your posts before you post them? After that diatribe you really want to talk about decency and politeness?

      Don’t worry, you sound just like every other banana man fundie that posts here on YT. But since you’re all about justifications, how can you postulate the existence of an indemonstrable entity solely on faith?

      Give up the “hope” of something else after you live here and start living this life, I assure having one life to live increases it’s meaning & value 100 times over

    13. zero33AD Says:

      Its amazing how you …
      Its amazing how you athiests cant find a drop of decency and politeness when you talk to others about truth.
      You all sound like mini-Dickie Dawkins and are as lost as him too. I truly pity you.
      Im amazed you dont have your heads buried in study trying to find your way past the problem that you CANNOT justify ANYTHING in a universe of chance and accident. Poor you.

      I’m going to call a spade a spade; christians are idiots.

    15. sk8progression Says:

      And you’re side …
      And you’re side stepping the original issue. So I’ll try and steer you back in the right direction.

      If you can prove, without logical fallacies, that the universe was created, you’d prove that there was a creator.

    16. sk8progression Says:

      ‘There is no reason …
      ‘There is no reason to give credit to objects for our existence.’

      See what I mean?

    17. sk8progression Says:

      And as your friend …
      And as your friend already said, the reason I can’t interpret the Bible is because it wouldn’t keep the story straight. Now what kind of dishonesty does that add up to?

      It means you’re all the same, you believe in wishful thinking stemming from an inability to cope with reality and rather than “critically think” about a situation you take the first “feel good” story to come your way and assert it as fact thinking because you read a book you’re qualified to speak on subject of origins.

    18. sk8progression Says:

      Are you seriously …
      Are you seriously drudging up the talking snake episode as a defense? A week to respond and that’s all you’ve come up with? Who are you going to for advice because they’re probably more warped than you.

      I asked because I knew exactly what kind of BS you we’re capable of delivering and that was the purpose of the question.

      It’s so easy to get you creationists to spout completely subjective BS as an unequivocal answer to anything. Effectively cornering yourself in BS.

    19. Seekmosttoprophesy Says:

      You should learn …
      You should learn what the issues are before you go making judgments about people you don’t know anything about.

      There is no reason to give credit to objects for our existence.

    20. Seekmosttoprophesy Says:

      The provision of a …
      The provision of a Savior being born of woman and the need for it has been around since Adam and Eve which is older than any other teaching. If you knew what I was going to say, you did not need to ask. There is no other religion that covers everything since the beginning of time as the Christian/Jewish teaching does.

    21. Seekmosttoprophesy Says:

      The fact that the …
      The fact that the elements of the universe are the interchangeable nanoparts that are used to store the billions of digits of directives that make life forms what they are is the proof that the entire universe and the interchangeable elements that it is made of are created by the same Designer as the life forms.

    22. Seekmosttoprophesy Says:

      The proof that I am …
      The proof that I am alive because of God’s provision that He gave Himself is that there can be no imperfection within a perfect God without having such a provision. The fact that people are able to sin is proof of the provision and love of God.

      It’s sad to me that people can listen to Hitchens and still go believing in God. Do these people just shut off their brains when he talks or did they not have one in the first place? self centered morons

    24. sk8progression Says:

      So which are you? A …
      So which are you? A deist or theist. If you hold the deistic view, how do you know the Judaic version of God is the right one? How do you know it’s not the God of the Hindus, Greeks or any other theistic culture. How do YOU know you chose the right one? That question applies to the theistic as well. I think I know what you’re going to say but I’d like to hear it from you.

    25. sk8progression Says:

      Ok. So you’re a …
      Ok. So you’re a creationist. You’ve just pushed the question back. But I’m always up for more insight into the mind of the devout.

      “Creation is evidence of a creator.”

      If you can prove, without logical fallacies, that the universe was created, you’d prove that there was a creator.

      Give it your best shot.
