I just stumbled across this, but I think it’s an excellent addition to “you’re doing the same thing you criticize”, which I think we realize happens all the time. This comes from an old Atheist Experience video, and it’s contained only at the beginning, although it’s probably a decent enough video to watch all the way through. So first, you’ll get the video itself, watch the first bit where Matt is talking about morality, and I think you’ll see where the problem is. Otherwise, I’ll explain below the fold. Ready? Let’s get to it!
Ran into another video today by A.B. Higashi, who is kind of in the Dan McClellan camp of an expert who isn’t necessarily on-board with all of the religious claims, and he put out a video on “how do we know Paul was real?”
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.
I just saw a video over on Matt Dillahunty’s channel, which I’ll link to below, about a new “secular religion” called Mystrikism. He went through some of the stuff on their website, which I’ll also link to below, but I had a lot more to say on the subject.
This is not remotely the first time I’ve seen it, but yesterday, it really hit home just how pathetic a lot of atheists are when it comes to Jesus mythicism. Remember, I am not stating that no Jesus ever existed, I simply point out that we have no evidence whatsoever for any real Jesus, such that even if there was a real Jesus, we couldn’t say anything demonstrably real about him.
I ran into this yet again, in another throwback episode of The Atheist Experience. Matt really has problems not understanding the words that come out of his own mouth.
I know it was a complete waste of time, but I went looking for “most rational modern Christian apologist” on Google and I’m really depressed at what I found. I had to add in “modern” because without it, all you get are old dead dudes from the Middle Ages or before, and it’s really sad that those are considered the best Christian apologists of all time.
As I’ve gotten older, I’ve lost all respect for bullshit. I don’t put up with it anymore. I’ve got more important things to do. Nowhere is this more true than in discussions online, where people will just throw crap at the wall and hope it sticks and when it doesn’t, they just make excuses.
Yesterday, Matt Dillahunty put up a video on his channel where is pulled his standard political whiny nonsense, the same stuff that I’ve pointed out many times in the past, and, amazingly, his entire comment section lit up and most people were saying the same thing that I’ve been saying for years!
