Darth is objectively wrong that there was never a widespread belief in Flat Earth. He's simply wrong about it. He says to look up the work of some random scholar. Does he not realize that you can't just blindly believe what some random scholar says? There are competing opinions among scholars which are backed up by stronger historical evidence. The issue is: Darth does know what he's talking about regarding presup, but he has a massively inflated ego regarding other topics he isn't actually as knowledgeable about.
Darth's arrogance regarding the Cosmology debate is absolutely disgusting, particularly given his wide-ranging ignorance on the topic combined with his refusal to allow anyone to debate for any competing position in his presence.
“Everybody in the room is punished” - except darth himself. He spreads punishment like a wrathful god who caught people eating some juicy fruit, kicking ass and chewing gum, the only time he’s not on a excessive monologue.
Here's a thought- if we define God as "that which is necessary for reality to exist", then yes, God must exist; but if we then acknowledge that any of the other characteristics that are often associated with him- including that he is a "him", a person in some sense- are irrelevant to this definition, then we can also say that God does not exist in that he does not necessarily have those other characteristics. Otherwise we would be smuggling them in without justification. This means that the term "God" is not a very useful one, because it has baggage that only confuses the issue.

The 2nd half of this - when Darth explained the same, very simple point to the atheist over and over for over 30mins, and he STILL couldn't track that he's begging-the-question is a great example of how atheists are blinded on this issue. Because let's be real, nobody can be that dumb and still function in the world. There is something else going on. He's being blinded in some way that's abnormal.
Why don't you give darth a call and REVEAL to him your GODLY REVELATION that the earth is flat? You know...the thing you claim you can't be wrong about? I'd LOVE to hear you let darth know he's wrong lolol
Darth still out here deceiving atheists. "How did you come to believe in no creator god?" Well, here "creator god" is just a category label (AKA a group of gods consisting of Allah, Yahweh, God, Brahma, etc) and Darth has said in other conversations that category labels like "reality" or "the universe" are abstract and thus do not actually exist. So Darth's question is really "How did you come to believe in concrete (AKA no abstraction)?" The answer is obviously because they actually exist in reality. Congratulations! You have just completed the first community college lecture on Darth Dawkin's Word Salad 101.
It's moments around 3:00 when Darth makes numerous false assertions about a topic he hasn't researched at all which destroy his credibility and actually damage the reputation of Presup. He said "even the Greeks knew Earth is a globe in ancient times because they measures shadows, etc". This is widely known to be a begging-the-question fallacy in the globe vs flat debate because the exact same results, mathematically, are obtained by presupposing a local sun and flat earth... instead of a distant sun and spherical earth. This is not even a remotely difficult to comprehend point, it's just Darth's unwarranted arrogance on the issue holding him back from even doing cursory research on the issue. Why? Because it isn't being presented to him by academics. Darth idolizes academia and irrationally excludes research into anything they don't talk about, particularly if he lumps it into the group of "conspiracy theorists" (all of whom he writes off as crazy prior to investigation with guilt by association fallacious reasoning) I don't criticize Darth's approach to this issue to be mean, but simply because it needs to be said. He is behaving in a parallel manner as the atheists he despises. He's engaging in all the same pseudoskepticism and should know better.
What's worse is the way Darth makes all these fallacious & false assertions about Cosmology, always followed by "WE'RE NOT GOING TO GET OFF TOPIC ONTO FLAT EARTH" when people rightfully rebut what he declared. I've noticed this is a common pattern of behavior among prominent debaters who are Heliocentrists. THEY make assertions about Cosmology, but if anyone dispute what they're saying? Well, then that's going off topic... for directly address what was asserted. If he doesn't want to talk about that issue, then fair enough. But then he needs to stop making declarations about it. If he decided to make declarations about it, then he needs to stop gaslighting when people rebut him by falsely claiming they are changing the topic when they're clearly didn't.

This is not even a remotely difficult to comprehend point, it's just Darth's unwarranted arrogance on the issue holding him back from even doing cursory research on the issue. Why? Because it isn't being presented to him by academics. Darth idolizes academia and irrationally excludes research into anything they don't talk about, particularly if he lumps it into the group of "conspiracy theorists" (all of whom he writes off as crazy prior to investigation with guilt by association fallacious reasoning)
I don't criticize Darth's approach to this issue to be mean, but simply because it needs to be said. He is behaving in a parallel manner as the atheists he despises. He's engaging in all the same pseudoskepticism and should know better.
What's worse is the way Darth makes all these fallacious & false assertions about Cosmology, always followed by "WE'RE NOT GOING TO GET OFF TOPIC ONTO FLAT EARTH" when people rightfully rebut what he declared.
I've noticed this is a common pattern of behavior among prominent debaters who are Heliocentrists. THEY make assertions about Cosmology, but if anyone dispute what they're saying? Well, then that's going off topic... for directly address what was asserted.
If he doesn't want to talk about that issue, then fair enough. But then he needs to stop making declarations about it.
If he decided to make declarations about it, then he needs to stop gaslighting when people rebut him by falsely claiming they are changing the topic when they're clearly didn't.
Lol YOURE A FLAT EARTHER LOLLLOLLLOLLLLLL
