Scientific theories are not, by definition, mutually exclusive, unlike religious belief systems. The "gods" of absolutist states are their leaders, so Marx plus Lenin or Mao or Kim whoever. Hope your refutation of logical thought are more considered in your book son. If they're not perhaps you'd do better listening and thinking than laughing smugly, and publishing. Just a thought(I'm an atheist, so I'm allowed to think)
@@brianbolger6313 none of your most important theories add up after hundreds of billions spent. To a thinking person, that means they're wrong. Relativity is clearly wrong. Evolution is clearly wrong. DNA is proof of design based on math.
Are you paying someone to teach you this stuff?
This is why Joe Rogan couldn't write a book that wouldn't read exactly like any book from any atheist in existence. Can you name one famous book by an atheist? How about the Communist Manifesto by Karl Marx?
"Communism begins where Atheism begins." ~Karl Marx 1850's
Not even 100 years after the inception of a government based in atheism, over 100 million people starved to death in Communist Russia between the 1940's and 1970's. Communist China needs child labor and corner cutting in production to keep up with nations founded in religion.
After 160 years, where is any proof atheism is better in education, workplaces, or even governments? What metrics are you measuring from? I have plenty of stats to defend religion...
@@deductivereasoning4257 Alas I find it impossible to see any relevance to my comment in your reply. Mathematics is a way of describing the universe. The structure and behavior OF DNA is therefore mathematically describe-able. This is informative of the origins and purpose of mathematics, but not of the proteins so described. I deduce, perhaps unreasonably, that a little honesty would prove a more useful tool for you than the vituperative rhetoric you attempted to employ above. If reason is truly your aim try, like any good scientist, to fault and refute your own argument. If you, honestly, cannot see the flaws then trumpet it publicly. But, please, don't put words in my mouth or anyone else's just you can argue against them.
@@brianbolger6313 math is fact, not a way of describing something. Only someone who sucks at math would reason as you do - this is why everything you reasoned afterwards is fallacious.
The math of DNA says a coin was flipped over 999 quadrillion times and always landed on heads. This is called empirical proof of design. And then, your DNA can hold electronic information better than any device man can make. Once again, proof of design to those that understand magnetism and information transfer...
"An atheist is just a theist who believes in one less God than a theist."
Uh yeah that's is just how word definitions work bro. This is just an attempt to win by changing the deffinition. The Detroit Lions are winners if you define winning as the courage to show up for a butt kicking.
Hahahaha. Gotta kill the lions in this😂. Your right tho
The Lions are Super Bowl champions. They just won one game less.
@@nicholasjohnson1075 the Lion's have even failed at losing. They almost had a record losing season, but they merely tied the record holder.
Quick question? When did the lions go to the superbowl?
That was pretty!!! 👍🤣🤣🙏
If you apply their polythesim argument to marriage: The only difference between a monogamist and a bachelor is one less wife 😂
😂😂😂😂😂
Their logic is extremely flawed.
Clever
@Kenny Bugh it's because the difference is more vast then ur making it seem. All home owners are homeless, they are just have one extra house. It's a total disregard and dismissal of the historicity of Jesus Christ vs the lack thereof for the other 100+ gods. It's a word game atheists high five each other with w/o making an actual point.
@Kenny Bugh one can make statements that on their face seem true, but because of categorical conflicts are in fact not true. To conflate an atheist’s position on a thousand topics from creation, sin, morals, law, or even having a metaphysic that even supports the intelligibility of these arguments/assertions with that of any theist is categorically different from comparing theists to theists and the same would bode for theists to polytheists. Crossing or whistling past categories does not a truth make. It would all actually be logically incorrect yet your claim was that there are “logically correct”; I guess in so far as you reject logic. Which by the way an atheist really has no metaphysic to ground that in to begin with.
Doug, I watch these for your hearty chuckles.
He's quite "Miracle on 34th Street" esque 🎅... You know in another life he would have made the BEST Santa, that chuckle is just the icing on the cake
Hahahaa ♥️😂🙏🏽
Yup big man , with a whole lot of thought . Thats something I don't wanna argue with
At this point, I'm convinced that Joe needs someone to challenge his willful blindness to the Truth.
Amen to that
He's paid to not change his mind
Joe's depth of understanding of the Christianity he rejects, like that of most people, is demonstrably very shallow -- believes Constantine gave us the biblical canon!
@@Sharsuils right! It would one thing if he had correct but incomplete info on Christianity, but he has inaccurate and slanderous propaganda instead
It really does seem like he goes woefully unchecked huh?! He comes across like a mad little kid to me, whenever he talks about Christianity. Like why the mad toddler routine, if you truly believe these things? The extra emotion, and complete lack of depth, suggests that no one ever challenges him to think logical about this. He just goes rampantly unchecked.
At 0:18 Rogan says this argument is a home run. What an idiot.
There are less than 1,000 jelly beans in the jar.
Rogan claims it is a home run to claim there are zero in the jar based on the logic that he just is believing in one less correct number of jelly beans than I am.
Moronic.
"“Some ideas are so stupid that only intellectuals believe them.”
-George Orwell
It is a home run. How do you not see it? It's arrogant for you to believe in one god just because you so happened to be born. Why is Krishna or Allah not the real god? You are just as wrong about our origin as the Muslims you would say are wrong.
@@dave9640
*"It's not a home run, but it's not nothing either."*
Well, thanks for trying to meet me partway. I wish I could do the same. But, I'm sorry, I can't.
Well, maybe not true. For example, you say,
*"It's what we call in Philosophy an inductive argument."* I'm not sure if it is or not. I'm not even sure what you are claiming is the argument.
*"If everyone believes the same thing, which is that their God is the right one and all of the other ones are wrong, it suggests (not proves, but suggests) they all might be equally mistaken."* I'll happily grant that God may not exist. I'll also refute the idea that 999 wrong ideas about God, implies anything about the 1,000th idea about God. It is like 999 wrong answers about 1+1 has nothing to do with the 1,000th idea about 1+1. Nothing.
*"Your task is to explain why they're wrong about their Gods and you are not wrong about yours."* Who made you the assigner of tasks? As I see it, I took it upon myself to comment on the ludicrous conclusion arrived at by Rogan and Dawkins.
*"One of the best arguments Christians can put forward is that Judeo-Christian societies tend to flourish, which suggests that their value system has merit."*
Arguments for what?
And I don't care about merit in the way I see you implying, I care about truth value.
Regards,
Sam
@@dave9640
That’s one of the worst arguments I’ve heard put forward. SMH
@@samdg1234 " I'll also refute the idea that 999 wrong ideas about God, implies anything about the 1,000th idea about God." That's the wrong framing, as you should know, since it's not 999 and then a 1000th... it not even 9,999 and then a 10,000th... It's not about the *AMOUNT* of claims, it's about the *equality* of the claims. Put another way, the jew when asked who is right and wrong, he'll say "The Jews are right, the rest are wrong", the Muslim when asked who is right and wrong, he'll say "The Muslims are right, the rest are wrong", the Christian when asked who is right and wrong, he'll say "The Christians are right, the rest are wrong"....
the Atheist when asked who is right and wrong, he'll say "I agree with *ALL* them about the rest being wrong". And when asked, what is the actual answer "everything" would reply "I don't know. I haven't been convinced of an answer yet."
So far, there has yet to be *ANY* religion that has produced any kind of *ACTUAL* widely convincing evidence of their claim, otherwise, there wouldn't be such a debate between religions. This is what _Suggests_ but does not "Prove" that at least they are all incorrect about something, if not everything.
"Your task is to explain why they're wrong about their Gods and you are not wrong about yours." - Obviously this only applies if you are one of the "Only my religion is correct and the rest are wrong/mistaken" people as they are the ones making a claim about their religion being correct.
@@zeek8918
Let's see if we can reason together.
You say, *"It is a home run."*
Should we not begin with clarity on what Rogan (and therefore us) are referring to as a home run?
It is to conclude that there is an irresistible inference that one possible answer among 1,000 possible answers *should* be ruled out because 999 out of the 1,000* has* (supposedly) been ruled out. This appears ludicrous. It certainly appears to me to depend on what your presuppositions are. If, for example, you assume there are no right answers - well then you don't have to even look at any of the 1,000. They have been ruled out before even beginning. If you are on the other hand assume or even perhaps know that there is a right answer - well then after the elimination of the 999, you know which is the right answer. And if you are open only to the possibility of there being a right answer, you have to look at all 1,000 before drawing your conclusion.
Have you heard of 'the cup' game? (32 second video) *th-cam.com/video/9bto_3Z1dqc/w-d-xo.html* It's not rocket surgery. What is the most number of guesses you require to *know* the answer? On what basis have you concluded differently about the 1,000 possibility question?
You go on to say, *"It's arrogant for you"* It is not clear from your usage that you understand what the word 'arrogant' means. I am not offended by the accusation. First, though, supposing you are correct, and I am in fact arrogant, what does this do to my point? Can an arrogant person not be correct in any truth claim they assert? And secondly, what have I said that causes you to believe that I am arrogant? With due respect to you, it appears you may be the one displaying arrogance. For example, from what statement of mine do you conclude that, *"you to believe in one god"* I don't see from what I've said here that you have any justification for drawing that conclusion. Do you do so because you consider it anathema that an atheist would point out flaws in the reasoning of another atheist?
Further with your comments, *"Why is Krishna or Allah not the real god?"* Where did I say that they aren't? and, *"You are just as wrong about our origin"* What comments are you reading? Where have I said anything about 'our origin'?
I leave it at that for now. I don't think I'll suggest you as an umpire for the world series given your generosity in awarding 'home runs' 🙂
Best regards,
Sam
Doug's final argument was totally enjoyable to watch
It made the video. Pointing out that they conveniently got a fact wrong in supporting their own worldview. “Teaching facts isn’t indoctrinating anyone.”
did he die in that fire?
@@nomdeplore7604 Truth makes you angry, eh?
@@justin10292000 no. you seem confused.
Rogan would NEVER have you on Doug. You cut through the BS too easily.
Ya'll talk about discussion like its a competition, which is worrying to say the least.
@@BlastinRope It’s not about competition. It’s just annoying how Rogan avoids Christian guests like the pandemic. He had on Steven Crowder before but he’s not a theologian.
Like the Greeks in Acts 17, some people live for speculation.
@@Joel-bg3cf We don’t have to “speculate.” Rogan doesn’t do podcasts with Christian theologians, but will bring on the staunchest antitheists.
@Kenny Bugh Ok bud 🤣 The same Dawkins who couldn’t remember the full title of Charles Darwin’s book _Origin of Species_ and said “Oh god…” while he struggled-during a radio interview!
I find frank tureks' question, 'if Christianity were true would you become one...', a great litmus test. Most people don't want there to be a God
thats kinda genius
Christianity is not true, so it wouldn't matter
@@dharmadefender3932 wdym by Christianity is not true? I'm advocating that Christ is worthy and reliable above any other.
@@jonathangrover3176 as to the existence of a God: where did everything come from? How do you get life & design from nothing? And as to being worthy of worship; please say who do you find more worthy of worship then Christ
@@jpvanstaden2595 What I said. Men don't rise from the dead
I think Joe likes listening to Dawkins because his voice sounds like he could narrate a children’s book.
😂😂😭😭🤣🤣🙏🙏👍
I lost all respect for Dawkins’ logic abilities when I heard him ask, “If God created everything, then who created God?” and acted as though that were a slam dunk argument against God.
It's a Smug question to tell people: YOU created him.
And John Lennox replied to Dawkins when he made that statement …”You’re assuming God was created. Well of course any created god is a delusion by definition!
@@LarJgripDawkins’ assumption is based upon Lennox’s assumption that a god exists. Since assumptions = truth to Lennox, Dawkins’ assumption is also equally true. Dawkins understands the hypocrisy of arbitrary truth and is merely playing w/in theist’s evidence-irrelevant logic bubbles.
@Kenny Bugh
So what’s your point then? If we follow your logic that a creator must have a beginning then who created the creator?
Either you’re ignoring that there must be an “uncaused cause” or, you’re suggesting that “everything” can come into existence from nothing. So if you think Dawkins argument is logically correct then perhaps it’s you that not understanding.
Here’s some more logic for you…whatever caused time/space and matter to exist must itself be something other than time/space and matter.
So my question to you is: why does anything exist at all?
@@brunorhagalcus6132
- everything that exists must have a beginning (cause)
- in order for there to be a cause, there must be an uncaused cause.
- everything exists, therefore there must be an uncaused cause.
The logic underlying their argument is something like this: 1+1 cannot = 2 because it doesn't = 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8, etc. In other words, if there are many incorrect answers to a question (does God exist, which God is real?) your answer can't be true either. Except...1+1 is 2, despite the fact that it isn't 3, 4, 5, 6 or anything else. The appeal to a preponderance of bad answers to a given question doesn't make any other attempt to answer the question wrong in principle. There is a right answer to everything - if you think I'm wrong show me why, don't tell me how many other people have been wrong on the same question. It means nothing.
YES! I wanted to write it, but you beat me to it 😎👍
Exactly. Complete and utter foolishness on their parts.
Can you lead by example? Can you explain why your religion is right? And why the 6-7 billion others are wrong?
I have to do it.... Boom shakalaka!!! 🙏👍😍♥️😭
Rogan has two settings. He's an open-minded fellow that usually treats those he intervews with courtesy and some times he's a dumb jock.
Bahahahhaaa!
He's where the stoner kids and locker room meet.
Open mindedness doesn’t equate or transfer as wisdom. Hopefully Joe and others like him will have their open mindedness towards hearing people like Doug.
Problem with an open mind it's like an open sewer, anything can enter, not much of anything good.
Love it! Joe would never want someone on like Doug to challenge his belief system.
I'm not a fan of Rogan, but I think he would gladly do it. As hofficated as Joe is, I've definitely seen him be willing to have his beliefs challenged. I think the main issue would arise where we, as believers in the absolute Sovereignty of God and His right to save whom He pleases, differ with other believing Christians. To Joe, it's all about one belief system being favored over another. For the Christian, it ISN'T about having weighed one belief system or religion against another; it's the reality that God apprehended our lives against our fleshly will.
That's something that sounds like absolute foolishness to the unregenerate man.
@@lamb4078 weird, because there isn't a single video I've seen that has someone one to refute his atheism . just hasn't gotten around to it yet in his years and years of taking about pokemon, ufc, toilet paper, airlines, mushrooms, politics ..... right
@@lamb4078 It sounds like 'foolishness' because they don't like it. It's about preference more than logic.
@@andrewtaylor1737 I think the heat entertaining maybe two years ago when Jordan Peterson and reactionary ideas were becoming more prominent with their whole thesis of returning to God.
I’m not sure what changed but it seems like Joe Rogan is occupying that weird space where he’s not willing to be distributors with wealth while also not being a conservative or Christian.
I don’t think he knows of any famous Christian apologetics to bring to the table as well. This is what he thinks and he’s just buying famous people to talk to about it.
Darkens isn’t it same position where he can garner wealth by disagreeing with Christianity but can’t win arguments against focus him which in my opinion is light Christianity. So it seems like people are engaging with arguments they know they can win rather than debating.
@@lamb4078 where's the link to Rogan debating an actual Christian? I'd love to see that video.
These two spent all this time merely stating that there are different religious beliefs. Very profound for them.
Pastor Doug's reaction videos are some of my favorites! I love to see him get tickled. I hope those in his circle can get him on the Joe Rogan show! Would certainly be epic
I hope Joe seeks God while He may be found
In Jesus Name. Amen
🙏
Is God going somewhere?…..
@@jaquirox6579 no but soon we are! And that's the last ticket untill he returns with his Bride!
@@calvinGhicks Well of course. But the wording of soon is all in God’s time. And every single generation of Christians, thought that they were literally on the brink of our Lord coming to take us all home. It’s pretty culturally common for Christians. But we are to have our focus on doing God’s work here, and not be the frozen chosen, just staring at the walls doing nothing, because we think “God’s almost here!”. God wants us to go to work for Him and His mission. I hear what y’all are saying, but isn’t that the wrong focus? The focus is the great commission yah?
The one question I would pose to Joe is, "why don't you always do what you think you *should* do?"
"gee... I wonder if there might have been a flood"
this man has is the master of one-liners
“Beware of those who claim to be neutral because they always have an agenda” Doug Wilson
There’s always a Bias
That statement makes, less than "no sense". If someone is *not* "Neutral" then they kinda by definition "have an agenda". So the statement is "Everyone has agenda, and those that say they don't are just *LIARS!* "... Yeah, great way to poison the well with anyone who is genuinely undecided.
@@dementare you missed the point. neutrality is a myth! You ether a child off God or a child off Satan (nothing in the middle) and you do the will off your father.
@@arthurb2005 Do you understand what reading comprehension is? I would like to think so, but your comment to me is evidence you don't. The 2nd sentence in your comment and the 3rd sentence in mine, *BOTH* state that.
Also great job at removing free will from the equation as well. *SMH*
@@dementare lol
Children of Satan do not have free will they are slaves to sin!!! Neutrality is a myth!!! you don’t need to believe in God to understand that self evident truth. Mr. undecided.
I really like your reaction videos. Very educational and entertaining at the same time
They just demonstrate their utter folly.
It's like they call themselves dog owners, but they just happen to have 1 less dog than the dog owner who owns 1 dog.
That would be called incoherent folly and basically lying to yourself.
The fool has said in his heart there is no God.
Narrator: “He stated the verse with such conviction, with unwavering faith. Little did he know that the words he spoke, the faith he had, were not instilled in him by some unseen, all knowing cosmic entity, but by the people he trusted along his journey to mold his understanding of reality. His faith, precious as it was to him, originated from the ideas of men. His God, despite his claims, could not take credit for what he thought, what he felt, for if any such being truly existed they too would know no such Devine power had ever approached him here in this reality we all exist within, but people had, and with them, their ideas, their beliefs. No, his faith was not in a god, but in the people he loved, admired, faith that they spoke truth because they also spoke with love. As humans always have.”
@@Wolfman453 you seem to be just as religious as everybody else. the Zeal of your statement proves it and if not then..from there the reasonable question is , why bother?
Everybody's entitled to their own opinion of course but I'm not so convinced that your opinion is not based on your own presupposition to arrive at your own conclusions...
There's too many things from what I imagine your general framework
Is based on your word choices, that have gone on unanswered.
@@Wolfman453 naw. I have a personal relationship with God. I sought Him and he very directly revealed himself to me.
@@enoch3874 eh, we all have the stories we tell ourselves I guess, difference is I could take or leave the one I’ve created here. I’m not married to it or claim it to be truth. To me it’s just a representation of how it sounds when another human has convinced themselves they are quoting the arbiter of reality.
@@jessemorgan2009
Could you ever demonstrate to anyone else this relationship of yours manifests in reality independent of your mind? Because i can tell you all about my relationship with my dad, and to validate that claim I can show you photos, video, dna, hell I can introduce you, so if you want to convince a human in my position that you aren’t just saying words that sound nice to you, you’ll have to produce something tangible, quoting things wont get you there. Because at the very least we aren’t so foolish as to be that easily swayed by an obvious deepity.
Keep doing these reaction videos! These are so good.
Thought provoking. I’d love to see Joe and Doug smoking cigars and just having conversation.
Doug would thrash him with words and Joe would cop out with objective knowability, then Doug would give him the suplex him with historical reference and scripture.
I don't think Joe is equipped enough. When it comes to philosophy and religion, he still needs to drink more milk to comprehend the basics of the subject. Hitchens, a brilliant guy, was even caught off guard. And Joe? 😅
it's incredible how much atheists think they know and how prideful they can be about what they think they know. I come from a tribe in Nigeria called the Yoruba who also have a Diluvian origin story that has been shared for many centuries before we met the first Christian. So you mean to tell me that all these unrelated tribes the world over had the same origin story but the atheists choose to get bent out of shape about the one in the bible? Or maybe the best explanation is that the biblical story is true and it's primary purpose to shed light on God's judgment and mercy.
So, why do Hindu's believe in millions of gods? Why is there story so different from yours? Did they get it right or wrong?
Spot on Dapo. I'm Igbo.
@@hectorespinoza3446 Then it's up to you to investigate. Most religions are based on some form of truth but gets really flawed quickly. Find what makes Christianity unique and get on your knees to worship in spirit and truth.

And these are the intellectual heroes of atheists🤣🤣
Said who? See *_UNLIKE_* religion... Atheists only have *ONE* thing in common with other Atheists... they both said "No" when asked "do they believe in god?". That's it, it's not like we have pastors/preachers/deacons/bishops/Popes that claim to be "Divinely Ordained". At "BEST" we have people that many aspire to from the *MERITS* of their *ACTIONS.* Of course there are Idiotic Atheists, there are Idiots in *EVERY* group, and if you think *_YOUR GROUP_* doesn't have Idiots... surprise *YOU* are one of them.

Keeping doing these videos and Doug will surely be on Rogan soon enough :)
This is good Doug....I love that you are dipping into western culture and providing your perspective / reaction. As we reach out to this world people like Joe Rogan and Dawkins are on the minds of those we talk to and setting the example of how to think / respond even in part is helpful. Would love to see more....I know you have other content out there that helps us go deeper into these arguments and world views.
Wow you are hilariously right. Im loving your content. All glory to Jesus
Can't really explain it...I just love seeing this man Crack up at ridiculousness.

Yyyup 😂
this is the best response video of yours i've seen.
This is a demonstration of how the gospel and the Christian worldview are foolishness to the world. They laugh and mock. They just don't get it at all. So sad truly.
Foolishness altogether
Well it would help if there weren't two thousand different Christian theologies 😭😭😭... It's just one book! 🤣... Recommendations?.... Read it!!! The truth is in there! 🙏😍🤣
Well... That's enough internet for one day.
So what I’m hearing, is that his family failed to explain God to him, and raise him up in the fear and admonition. And when other people brought other religions to him, they failed again to explain heresy to him.
All of this explains why he has the theological depth of a 5 year old. Because he literally was 5 when this happened, and no one discipled him past it, or through it. And then as a grown adult, he never put the work in himself, to seek the truth either. Very sad.
@Kenny Bugh Right because everything came from nothing right? Oh wait, that's scientifically impossible. And if you think saying "big bang" explains anything, what made that bang?
@Kenny Bugh What kind of evidence for the existence of God are you looking for Kenny ? Evidence is gonna be determined by what you believe is real. What’s real according to your worldview?
@Kenny Bugh Dear friend, you have many questions, and I can see that. If you ever genuinely want answers, many Christians like me are happy to answer them and explain them. But majority of us aren’t interested in random jabbery haha! So u won’t find a boxing match, if that’s what you seek. Hope you have a good night. ✌🏽

Thanks, Doug.

I give Dawkins props for creating the term “meme” and that’s where it stops.
👏👏👏
@Kenny Bugh not really. If you follow it to its logical conclusion you get chaos.
@Kenny Bugh yeah but I actually do believe Allah exists…
@Kenny Bugh ok, but this doesn't make a Christian an athiest because they believe in one more God than an athiest.
It's not a very sound arguement. And it doesn't even disprove Christianity or any other religion
@Kenny Bugh the two words are completely opposites of each other. They mean different things.
Just because I don't believe in alla doesn't make me an athiest. Not believing in any god does
The “home run” was actually a foul ball.
A strike out.
More like a swing and a miss
A weak pop up …
All you have to do is bend the flat earth and you have a round one. Why do I like that quote so much? 😄
How many forms of philosophy are there? They never ever apply the same standards to themselves
Exactly what I always say… if your whole reason to not believe is to essentially have an excuse to say “nothing matters”… then why care about anything at all? In particular why care what someone else believes? I have never mocked an atheist outright upon hearing they are not a believer. Every time… but every time… it’s them who start it. Almost like if THEY were sent on a mission to convert!
Very astute!! 🙏😍🤣
I think Joe Rogan should have Doug Wilson on the show to discuss. Would be fantastic.
love it
Is it just me? But it seems like those that struggle the most with their faith or belief in God and Christ, or have animosity to the church and Christian culture, are those that grew up Catholic.
Well it is Lucifer's Church!! 🤣🤣🤣
The fact that joe thinks this is a home run argument lmao

They’re not though, the “everyone is an atheist” argument is known as a fallacious argument and even those militant don’t abide by it.

Doug needs to be on an episode of Joe Rogan.
Dawkins is one Mao away from believing his is the god made by himself to save everyone. Ridiculous takes on Joes podcast.
None of this addresess the appearance of design that Dawkins says is an illusion. Using occams razor one might say the appearance of design shows we have a designer.
Before you take your next flight, would you want the maintenance crew to read 10 fake manuals, the 1 manufacturer's manual or no manual at all?

0:15 As stupid as saying that everyone who works is unemployed, he's just unemployed for 99% other jobs. 😂 Who can even say this nonsense?
Only people who are trying really hard to justify their rebellion against God.
Yeah... except people gladly accept other jobs exist and they are also totally fine and correct to do. Do you believe other religions are correct?
@@hectorespinoza3446 That has absolutely nothing to do with the point he was trying to make. He is talking about being employed and unemployed. Not acknowledging the existence or nonexistence of a job.
@@gch8810 Do you accept all the religions of the world and believe they are correct?
@@hectorespinoza3446 Again, irrelevant to the point that Ron was making. Stay within his analogy if you are going to try to refute it. Don't add new things to it.
The fact that he’s still speaking about this topic shows that he can still find God.
Arrogance is blindness
The ending 👌👌👌👌
Dawkins' supposition also rejects reality: Time and time again cultures have rejected traditional religions and embraced Christianity. Billions of people throughout history have rejected all sorts of deities to embrace one. Why would they do this? What convinced them that the God of the bible was superior?
and what about those that haven't?

@@jonathangrover3176 I do no find anything of the sort. You must be thinking of something other than Christianity.
@@jonathangrover3176 I would encourage you to do the same. I notice contemporary culture holds a great deal of misinformation, dare I say, willful ignorance about the various exploration and colonial periods of world history and the experiences and motives of major figures involved.
@@jonathangrover3176 Yeah. I suspected as much. Zinn by his own admission had a decidedly partisan slant in that work. Huge grain of salt with that one. Meacham is a bit better.

Taking a look at the lives and work of David Livingston and John G Paton are also worth your time.

St Augustine (Check out Jonathan Dickinson, too), Jamestown / Williamsburg, Boston, Philadelphia (especially Freedom Hall), Valley Forge (VFNHS a personal favorite). Lexington, Yorktown, Saratoga, Fort Ticonderoga, King’s Mountain (another personal favorite). . . and we're just about out of the Revolutionary War period.
Make time for Mt Vernon, Monticello, and The Hermitage. Then its time to spend a week in DC. Call ahead to get formal tours in, especially Washington Monument, Nat'l Archives, Library of Congress, the US Mint, and the Holocaust Museum.

The very best way to garner attention to yourself is to declare yourself an atheist.
Or post a video about atheists and pause it to make noises, apparently
All I am seeing from Dawkins is taking effective arguments to put in to question his position turned around on religious people's. It's quite a trick if you have never heard these leveled before but obvious if you have and they fail to land when turned around. The spear seems to only penetrate one way. The lack of imagination on his part and dare I say plagiarism is amazing.
Doug, I think you missed out on the most obvious of logical rebuttals of the 'I just believe in one less God than you do' trivial claims.
The flaw in this reasoning is so moronic, it is astounding the anyone is taken in by it. HELLO Joe Rogan?
There are millions of males that could have been your biological father. You believe that one is. You don't believe in any but one. How sensible is it for me to suggest that I, believing that you don't have a father is just me believing in one less potential father than you? Or, you believe that 1+1=2. There is an infinite number of wrong answers to that question, eg. 3, 4, 5 ... etc. Does it seem reasonable for me to assert that your belief in 2 being the correct answer is just you believing in one less incorrect answer than me and that therefore it is reasonable to assume that the answer 2 is just as incorrect as all the others on the mere basis that any other 'answer' is wrong?
Agreed.
Yeah, it's ridiculous. I was an atheist for most of my life and I don't think that they even care if the argument makes sense or not, the point is just to mock the "pious Christians" that Joe so despises, as he has mentioned in the past. They want to make Christians feel like "you're no better than me," and they're right, we aren't better people, but I can say that thanks to God I'm better off than I've ever been before, even in my darkest hours.
Joe can prove scientifically who his father is lol. You are believing one improvable thing and shunning a countless amount of other improvable things, which is 1 less then an atheist. Therefore you are closer to an atheist than you might think. Also, i think a lot of atheists are more so on the fence, leaning towards there not being a god, but not confidently holding a solid belief either way
Also it's really not an argument Atheist used it's more of a joke. You find it hard to believe other religions we find it hard to believe all religions. We just go one step further.

*"Also it's really not an argument Atheist used it's more of a joke."*
*WOW* So you agree with me that it is not a 'home run' as stated by Rogan, 0:33.
In one of the gospel that was removed by religious authorities, Gosp of Thomas Saying 30-

Everyone is a murderer, some have just murdered one less
"The fool says in his heart, “There is no God.” They are corrupt, they do abominable deeds; there is none who does good." Psalm 14:1
Dawkins argument in just plain embarrassing and I can just imagine actually atheist philosophers dying a little inside everytime they hear it.😅
I always ask atheists this after they call me delusional for believing in a God,
Me:"so you dont think thier is a God I take it?",
Them:"No, hes a rediculous idea for weak minded sheep and sinpletons",
Me:"do you have any proof he doesnt exist?"
Them: you cant prove a negative duh
Me: you can but you cant prove that one, so you just beleive your idea to be truth without an objective fact?
Them: I'm not making a claim, the burden of proof is on you
Me: you claimed god doesnt not exist, that's a claim, seems like neither of us can proof conclusively with science our claims......welcome to a fellow believer in one less god than me!
Them: *usually its something with profanity
@@scottwall8419 neither of you can prove your claims, therefore...you win? What?
I kind of wish this series wouldn’t have happened until NQ November lol
Didn't think it was possible to not understand what Dawkins was saying, but it seams, if you really try, you can avoid the whole problem, by just being totally clueless on what the point was.
Joe and Richard be like, "What facts can we just fabricate and pretend are true?" Lol.
The hoops people jump through to deny Christ is nearly mind numbingly endless.
@@loremaster234 Naturally. Romans 1:18. All humans are constructed knowing their Maker and knowing they owe worship and obedience to their Maker. But they 'suppress.' The Greek word for that communicates that they expend great effort to suppress. Like, imagine a giant spring that's so big it takes every muscle in your body to hold it down. That's the measure of effort humans routinely expend to deny what they already know to be true. These two clowns are trapping themselves in a self-evident tar-pit of absurdity. It's what humans have to do in order to deny Christ.
It doesn't take many hoops at all to jump through to deny Christ. It all comes down to fear and the unknown. The power of belief is massive and can also be scary as hell to watch from the outside. Its also how so many awful things happen everyday across the world. Its what they genuinely believe to the core. There is no true critical thinking involved. You cant critically think your own beliefs. Its terrifying. Thats why. I grew up in Pentecostal church and it has forever scarred me of how terrifying beliefs and the effects can have on so many.
@@Daddy-ep8ng It all boils down to how you believe, or the means via which anything that's believed is believed. There is a rationality intrinsic to every human. The human problem is that everyone has varying degrees of capability related to their own rationality. The mind-bending reality is that no one can explain a first cause. Can there be an effect without a cause? Of course not. Nothing comes from nothing. To say otherwise violates the law of noncontradiction. If that's so, then why isn't it natural for one person to convince another person that Christ's explanation of the uncaused Cause is correct? Well, believing Christ Himself -believing what He says- isn't something anyone is capable of doing on their own. (Eph. 2:8). Before anyone says that's circular reasoning, we need only compare and contrast the irrationality of humans with the rationality of the created order. The evidence is plain in natural revelation. (Rom. 1:19, again). What's more, is that the more the human denies the things that are plain, the more irrational they become. (Rom. 1:24; Dan. 4:33). Animals aren't rational. If a person wants to keep on stubbornly knocking their head against the wall and deny it's there, they'll be allowed to lose their minds. This behavior is called "suppression." The Greek uses a verb for suppression that indicates the mashing-down of a mighty spring. It takes alot of mental effort to deny things that are self-evident. (Rom. 1:18).
The issue with pentacostalism has to do with what spirit we're dealing-with, here. Is it the Spirit of Truth that installs a living, saving faith and real belief in what Jesus says is true and a real trust in Him and His words, or is it another spirit? Any other spirit will deceive. (1 John 4:1). The way to test these spirits is to compare their truth claims to the claims of the Word, since Jesus really lived and taught specific ideations. (Acts 17:11; 1 Thess. 5:21). So, there is a mandate to measure truth claims systematically against Scripture, as the Bereans did. No amount of emotional experience can verify anything factual.
I remember a Pentacostal woman who came into our church service and sat for a while, then got up and proclaimed, "The spirit has left this place," before exiting prior to the sermon. Well, if she's referencing a spirit of emotionalism and irrationality, I certainly hope so. I wish she'd stayed and listened to some exposition of God's Word. But sadly, she didn't.
I was in a conversation with an atheist some weeks ago. He admitted, as did Einstein, that there had to be a First Cause to all that is. But, he denied that a "singularity," or whatever label used, could be known, because there's no common point of reference. I would say that of course we, in ourselves, can't know. We would need a witness, at least. There was a Witness. A man, actually. The means, or sign, by which His word is verified is the "sign of Jonah," as He Himself said. His death, burial and resurrection.
At MIT some years ago, they attempted to "beam" a molecule, and advertised it as "Star Trek" tech. In reality, they used tons of electricity to make a facsimile - proving that all matter must have two elements to exist: data and energy. Or, Word and Power. (John 1:1-5; John 1:14). So, we see an all-knowing, or omniscient Word, and unlimited, or omnipotent Power.
So, we're not talking about fear at all. (2 Tim. 1:7). The spirit of fear is deceptive. And we're not talking about lack of knowledge, either. We're talking about what is known. The Christian faith is inimitably rational. (1 Cor. 15:1-8) (1 Cor. 2:1-2). What's easy to see is the irrationality round-about us. It's not irrational to rely upon eyewitness accounts of the events validating the truth claims of Jesus of Nazareth. There's more historical record of His death, burial, and resurrection than there is of the life of Julius Caesar. Humans either believe Him, or not. But belief can't be spurious. There's lots of broad-path options out there about Him that aren't true. But, He is the only Way. (John 14:6). And few find it. (Matt. 7:13-14).
I was an atheist many years ago and I listened to the reasoning of this man. After much research and coming to the conclusion that no other cultures existed without religion I knew it was foolish to think this generation was smarter in anyway. Then I became pagan. When I discovered that evil pervades that I seeked out goodness. One day a opened the Bible and began to read. God was revealed to me that day, through Genesis. Since then I’ve continued reading and have never turned back. I will teach my kids that humans worship false idols for the day someone asks them if they know other religions exist.
As a Christian, I do not deny the _existence_ of other gods, only that they are false gods. Zeus and Odin and the gang, for whatever powers they may yield, are not the very ground of being, as the Christian God is. They are contingent, created beings, as is all else in the cosmos.
Joe Rogan needs to put the bong down.
Actually North Korea is not atheistic. The Kims are god to them. It's very similar to Pharaoh.
Not at all
@@johnnybagofdoughnuts4193 are you saying the North Koreans don’t worship their Dear Leader and view him as a living god?
@@hawt_fiya yes. Comparing the Pharaohs to the Kims is like comparing Jordan Peterson to Charles Dawkins. Ridiculous
@@johnnybagofdoughnuts4193 you are missing the point. In Egypt pharaohs we’re kings but regarded to be the pope of the gods and in such regarded as close to a god you can by the people.
Regardless it is the same story as all religion and is a form of controlling people. When your leader is supposed to be appointed by god or actually is god. It is easy to keep the masses at bay when you have the link to their afterlife.
@@johnnybagofdoughnuts4193 Egyptian pharaohs were kings of Ancient Egypt, and were considered gods by their culture. Their titles equated them with aspects of the likes of the hawk god Horus, the vulture goddess Nekhbet, and the cobra-goddess Wadjet.

Upon investigation it does appear that these days only the heavily indoctrinated view Kim Kong Un as a living god. But the fact remains there are some that do so technically OP is correct.
Joe is sitting across the table from a “yes man” that is simply agreeing with his worldview. I suppose it helps that he has an accent? Thespian. He’s merely playing a part? Lol🤓

God made His choice to die for all. It's their choice to receive Him. Pray they make the right choice.
All glory to Him! Amen! He is the author and finisher of our faith.
I think the fact or highly likely, that all cultures throughout civilization believed in a Higher Power, a Creator, or gods in the heavens, would point to the knowledge of the Creator, that we are created beings & a great starting point for someone to seek out truth which I believe w/ an open heart & definitely prayer leads only to Yahweh, the God of Grace & truth. Peace to the body of Christ
Th response/reaction vid aptly matched the depth of the vid being reacted on.
This is not a criticism of Doug, but of the shallow conversation between Joe and Dawkins.
So basically this guy is saying god doesn’t exist because sometimes other people believe in other religions. Yeah that makes sense. Real well thought out argument.
Rogan and Dawkins seem giddy at the idea of just telling kids there are many religions, many schools of scientific thought, as if conflating highly variable opinions and contradicting beliefs is a good thing!? God commands the Christian to bring up a child in His Word for a reason, so that child will have a foundation based in Truth that transcends the confusions of man.
And every other religion that has ever existed has made similar claims as do all other religions now. He is merely pointing to the fact that the convince Christians have in their faith is as unsupported as all the others.
@@cameronlapworth2284
But he is not telling the differences. He is just telling many cultures have gods so no culture is right. Trying to put God with the rest.
What the God of Abraham sets appart is: son of God, Jesus, redemption, foregiveness, healing alias the gospel.
@@Esico6 all of which have as little evidence as any other religion. Unicorns have a horn on their head. There's the claim now what are you left with? A claim with no evidence. The fact that most people believe in the gods of their parents and the religions that dominate in their culture suggests that if all these people can be convinced of different beliefs and attest to personal religious experience then we cannot rely on faith as a reliable mechanism. We need to find some other. That has thus far not been forthcoming. Lots of claims zero evidence.
Lol how can you watch this whole video and say...yeah anyway my religion got it right though...that's literally the point of the video! Every religion thinks they got it right and the other guys are wrong. You can't all be right, but you can all be wrong.
God doesn't believe in atheists. Romans chapter 1.

They are gossips, slanderers, God haters, insolent, arrogant and boastful; they invent ways of doing evil; they disobey their parents; they are senseless, faithless, heartless and ruthless.
Whenever someone refers to the writings of Gilgamesh in refuting the Bible I ask them is they have read the writings of Gilgamesh? Or if they have even read the Bible in its entirety? They never have. They are just regurgitating what they have heard someone else say or what they picked up off the internet. The more I read scripture the more I see mans arrogance which leads to his ignorance in their rejection and hate of the One True GOD.
