I know I’ve done this a million times, but it keeps coming up so I’ll keep pointing it out. The political left is doing EXACTLY what the religious are doing, yet they are completely blind to their own failures.
This time, we get a video from Atheist Experience, which I’ll link to below the fold. The caller claims that atheists are cherry picking, while doing nothing but cherry picking themselves, then the hosts start cherry picking too. It’s all absurd!
First, here’s the video if you want to go watch it.
Now I think the hosts do a good job dismantling the claims of the theist, but they simply cannot apply those same criticisms to their own political positions. They did bring it up, claiming “the religious want to force people to do what they want”, ignoring the fact that their own political side does EXACTLY THE SAME THING!
They whine that Christian nationalists want to take over the government, but SO DO THEY! EVERY POLITICAL PARTY DOES! Why are they so blind to that? I’ll tell you. Because they are only being critical of religion and not their own political and social cult. This is the problem and I have seen tons of YouTube atheists doing the same thing for years on end.
Why? Because they have every bit as much irrational faith in their own positions as the religious have in their own! They don’t have evidence for any of it, only claims!
I’m sorry, but claims don’t work for you any better than they do for the religiously delusional. You need evidence and you don’t have any! You just really like the idea, just like they said of the theist at the end!
They don’t get to vote on reality based on their fee-fees, which is all either side is doing. The religious really like the idea of a god, based entirely on faith,which is all they’re doing, so they insist that’s reality. The left really likes particular social ideas, based entirely on faith, which is all they’re doing, so they insist that’s reality.
Show me the difference between the two. Show me the difference between the two because I honestly can’t find any. It’s “I believe that there’s a magical man in the sky, based on feelings alone!” vs. “I believe that people can decide what gender they are at a whim, based on feelings alone!” Show me the objective evidence for either. It doesn’t exist.
Both sides are full of shit. Both sides really want to believe. Both sides try to force people outside of their echo chamber to comply with their wishes and dreams. Both sides are using the government as a weapon to push their own emotional agendas.
Show me where I’m wrong. I don’t think you can.
