While the obvious problem with "philosophical conversation" with DeeDee is that he doesn't know the basics of normal conversation, another fatal problem is that he doesn't know the basics of philosophy. This video is a great example of DeeDee missing the basics of logic. Rodi lays out a valid _reductio ad absurdum_ argument, sometimes called "proof by contradiction." The argument functions by showing how some proposition necessarily leads to a contradiction, so therefore the proposition must be false. DeeDee gleefully points out that Rodi's argument is "incoherent," meaning that it contains a contradiction! Well, duh! THAT'S what a proof by contradiction is. DeeDee couldn't make it to the first midterm exam in a high-school level logic class.

@@Winslow920 An ad hominem is a very specific logical fallacy. My comment doesn't fall under that category. I didn't say anything about Darth's argument. Just because you don't care for the comment doesn't make it something it's not. I simply stated what I find to be the case. But, even if you consider it an insult that doesn't automatically make it an ad hominem. There's a difference.
@@Winslow920 no, it's insults. Ad hom would entail OP saying darth's beliefs are wrong because darth is a gaping, salty vag. That's not what he was saying. He's saying darth is, his beliefs aside. You follow?

I struggle to think a deity wouldn’t strike him down for representing its position so badly and pushing others from that position. Yet alternately, the sheer amount of charity and patience that his interlocutors show him when they give him time to speak and waste their time. Borders on the supernatural.
These comments are all just ad homs or else they just demonstrate misunderstanding, yet you all think they're knock-down posts. For example, the Christian worldview states the Christian God gave humans Free Will to sin if they want to. So even if your personal attacks at Darth are correct, it wouldn't follow that God would strike Darth down for it. Nor would it follow that Presup is false.
Darth's real problem is that his interlocutors ARE actually listening carefully...and that he thinks patronising them with this demand will somehow make his fucked up arguments more coherent.
@@holygore Uh huh. As a presupper myself, I know the extent to which the average atheist debater listens. They tend to ignore pretty much everything they don't like or immediately understand (which is virtually every thing we argue)
Darth: What is it that's a non agent, non communicative concrete universal that all things derive and depend upon, seeing as you dont know it exclusively by reason or sense perception. Also Darth: I don't need gobbledygook. Answer me so a fifth grader could understand.😂
@@Winslow920 You may be right. But when I was a devout Christian, till I was 40, I would have been highly offended that someone would represent my God in this manner. I haven't read anyone saying this before, yet it is quite a glaring take-a-way, nonetheless, so I am not surprised :)
Yea the only acceptable not-God world is a world where there’s a god just like Darths….which we have no idea what it actually is besides it just accounts for and explains everything.
If I were to have to debate darth, I would always refuse to accept his definition of God because it doesn't match the definition of God used in the terms theist and atheist. Therefore, these terms do not apply to this definition of God. So darth always makes a category fallacy every time he asserts this god.
Another problem with “God’s Mind”: each thought is caused by a previous thought, what means a infinite cause-effect chain since he is eternal in the past. And if you say the thoughts are not caused by other things, then we must conclude the thoughts are just random!!
The fact that there is no apparent god much less a need for one pretty much speaks for itself. Just because there is a word such as "atheist" to describe those who appeal to that reality does not lend the position any less credence. All anyone claiming the contrary has to do is demonstrate said god and atheism is done for. Still waiting.
@@lightbeforethetunnel Circular reasoning. There are numerous claims regarding gods. No evidence though. You may attribute this to poor intellectual capacity, what's your best evidence for your god claim?
Rodi: ...and that's why God doesn't exist Darth: no you just admitted your reasoning is incoherent Rodi: no, that's not- Darth: SHAAAAT APPPP and let me preach! I'm right, you're wrong. Be a good boy and eat some Spaghetti-O's or something Me: wow. What a... ahem... good Christian man
I want to have my own dictionary full of words that only i known to get mad when people don't know definitions they have no way to know, been like darth sounds really fun.
Category error huh?...So would you say that Darth is pleading that his god is special? Honestly, Darth gets very defensive when people point out that placing God in the transcendental necessity category is special pleading. He'll swear that it's not, but if God is both necessary and exists outside the physical world, he _would_ be exempt from objections that could be raised against other entities. Still, no matter how you spin it, it would fit the definition of special pleading. So, why not answer honestly and say, yes, my God is special? My guess is Darth knows taking that route would commit him to having to provide an argument for both the necessary nature and transcendent properties of God. It's much easier for him to just assert they're definitional and throw a bitch fit if the person he's talking to pushes back on it.
I presuppose there isn’t a god. There can only be truth if there is no god. To believe in a god is irrational. You may not believe me, but you’d be irrational if you didn’t. Until you remove the filter of your irrational world view, you cannot see the truth. Happy to help you, Darth, when/if you are ever ready.
Ah the standard presupp tap out, shifting to the “How do you know” line of lame bickering, Darth must be into S and M because he keeps getting destroyed yet keeps coming back for more
In Darth's mind, if he's yelling and ranting like a lunatic, he wins. If the other guy is yelling and ranting like a lunatic, that guy's crazy and he wins. If he rage quits, he wins because his presence is a gift to mankind (Absolute narcissistic trait). If the other guy rage quits, that guy's a total loser. If other people mute or kick him, it's because they are cowards with no argument. If he mutes or kicks other people, it's because they're "just trolls". He will refuse to debate anyone his own size like Jack Angstreich (someone who will effectively bully him back). He thinks people should not be "argumentative" in a debate, and he thinks screaming "don't overtalk me" is a mature way to deal with being interrupted.
18:52 It is so funny that Darth doesn't understand that he is being told the "revealed to me" argument. You would think that a guy who uses the "it's revealed through a flower" argument would not know that argument is being used against him but with different words.
Why does anyone platform Darth? You're never going to get a decent, useful, argument with him around. No one of any ability is going to subject themselves to that much of a pointless waste of breath.
so basically, Darth defines God as a necessary being without actually supporting his claim as to how God is defined. Then Darth tries to use that unsupported definition of God to brow beat R0DI. Just complete dishonesty on Darth's part.

Bingo. He does this often. If he has mod powers himself he’ll kick the person much sooner than this and give the patented “This is what they always do” speech. Darth is the Trump of apologetics.
10:50 "We aren't defining god into existence, we are merely saying god is the one and only absolute" That's exactly WTF you're doing!!!! Defining god into existence!! Honestly..Darth can barely follow his own assertions. He never says he's making an argument. He just gets-off on saying "your not understanding" as many times as possible.
Not to mention how many time he says "by definition" ... It has to be done with intent. It seems in troll like fashion he get's a kick out of being so obviously contradictory and obnoxious done to provoke a negative reaction from others. Saying you are not defining something into existence while you use "by definition" as a defense over and over makes you want to slap him about the neck and face.
I don't see what's so hard to understand about how the beginning of something is simple and not complex. You don't learn physics until you understand basic arithmetic. Yoy don't build a car until you understand combustion and gasses. I love how they use big sounding meaningless words to confuse and then try to act like you're dumb for not understanding. But when you use simple words and they don't understand, it's still you with the problem. I swear the only tool they have is projection. It's embarassingly bad.
The same hilarious bullshit where someone who doesn’t agree with Darth is just not understanding Darth. So he repeats and repeats and repeats to program his audience to believe his opponent doesn’t understand him, as opposed to just disagreeing with him.
Darth dodging is amazing, no wonder Jrunning is so good at disengaging. To be the best presupps you must know the 5 rules, dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge.
Funny how that when the other person mentioned a "universal structure" DD said "how do you know that?", but DD can spit attributes of God, HOW DOES HE KNOW THAT?
Why don't they shut this prick down? No interruptions? Okay, but that goes both ways. Non-stop questions? Well, stop and answer some yourself because by Darth's own measure he could be justifying Islam. He has more to answer for than an Athiest.
What’s wrong with multiple absolutes? I would suggest that the forces of physics are absolutes, and they do not effect each-other, rather, they effect other things (matter), and the stronger of any set of forces wins out (or combines together) to determine the results.
1: If I remember correctly, the creator-creature distinction was one of van Til's feeble tricks to 'demonstrate' that Man and God are similar but never identical. It thereby presupposes the existence of gods as well as the act of creation and as argument is therefore a circular fallacy. Furthermore, the distinction claims to explain why the intelligibility of life, the universe and everything is by definition not accessible to Man thereby demonstrating that Diaper Dontovertalkme claiming to know god in all her intricacies is not human. 2: "By what means do you know etc...." bounces right back at DD and then you get the non-informative answer "by special and general revelation" which always makes me laugh. Next. 🤣
10:00 This is the worst moderator ever. He just said that Rodi hasn't had the opportunity to speak on his own and then on the next statement asked Darth to continue speaking. A good moderator would have said since Rodi hasn't had enough time to speak on his own, he would then allow Rodi to speak.
All declarations are in some degree arbitrary. There is always epistemic uncertainty. Darth thinks he has a solution based on a divine revelation. ROFL What should I do with all the other divine revelations in history?
Hell jesse was in there rubbing Darths balls with a mink glove…. ‘OK Darth since RODI has not had a chance to lay out his position, would you like to do it for him?’ ….. WOW
Very one sided modding. Darth can interupt as much as he wants and when the other pushes back the mod said "Darth let him finish. He's wrong but let him finish"
Well technically a mod isn’t supposed to be there agreeing or disagreeing and taking 1 side or the other which clearly was happening the mod in this case and most others is really just Darths guard dog.
Its funny because even if Darth was able to demonstrate that Brodis' or anyone's position is incoherent that still doesn't get you to the existence of God let alone the Christian God. Gods existence or non existence does not depend on what any of us believe.
God can’t be singular. Because if Angels are also timeless and created before the universe, then they have existed as long as god has. That seems right to me.
A concrete universal can be a mind like ishgabobleslerfingshins can be a mind or a concrete universal for that matter. Because we do not even know if a concrete universal exists much less if it does it has to be a disembodied mind seems a really huge jump to that from it must be something we call "god".
If minds are contingent (as they are) then they cannot be ultimate. For Darth to say God is a noncontingent mind is to equivocate on the word mind. In our universe, an efficient cause always acts upon a material cause. For Darth to say God is an efficient cause that creates the material cause is to equivocate on the word causation. Ultimately Darth's special pleading explains nothing and, in fact, only deepens the quandry unnecessarily.
Your problem regarding the topic of minds is, you're taking what theists say about God, then you're critiquing it as if what theists said about that topic are univocal statements about God. And that's not the case. We can only speak analogically about God from our finite and ignorant perspectives. As humans, who probably don't even possess one percent of all the knowledge that is possible, regarding the reality of God. When we say, the mind of God, that refers to the supremely rational and mind like, transcendentally necessary ultimacy. And you cannot critique that negatively, because you don't know what the full nature of that is. You have practically nothing to work with for a critique! Due to the hiddenness of God, and how God operates mysteriously, apparently. _For Darth to say God is an efficient cause_ That's not a univocal statement about God. Its analogical. _that creates the material cause is to equivocate on the word causation._ That's a non sequitur. We haven't answered the question of what is the nature of God and God's creative actions. _special pleading explains nothing_ There is no special pleading. You don't even have a coherent critique to begin with. _and in fact only deepens the quandary unnecessarily._ That's a non sequitur.
@@ChessArmyCommander So blah blah blah, we made it all up and theres no way of telling what is reality! Is that what your saying? I mean, we gave god a mind but no dick and balls? Seems unfair. Poor thing.
@@ChessArmyCommander You’ve just laid out the argument that you believe in something that you can neither explain nor understand yet it is the foundation of your worldview. Congrats. You have no idea what it means for God to be a mind. You have no idea what it means for a mind to create a physical universe. Your belief explains nothing.

You don't learn physics until you understand basic arithmetic. Yoy don't build a car until you understand combustion and gasses.
I love how they use big sounding meaningless words to confuse and then try to act like you're dumb for not understanding. But when you use simple words and they don't understand, it's still you with the problem.
I swear the only tool they have is projection. It's embarassingly bad.
He's a terrible excuse for a human being.
Amen!

The same hilarious bullshit where someone who doesn’t agree with Darth is just not understanding Darth. So he repeats and repeats and repeats to program his audience to believe his opponent doesn’t understand him, as opposed to just disagreeing with him.
Darth dodging is amazing, no wonder Jrunning is so good at disengaging. To be the best presupps you must know the 5 rules, dodge, duck, dip, dive and dodge.
Funny how that when the other person mentioned a "universal structure" DD said "how do you know that?", but DD can spit attributes of God, HOW DOES HE KNOW THAT?
Why don't they shut this prick down? No interruptions? Okay, but that goes both ways. Non-stop questions? Well, stop and answer some yourself because by Darth's own measure he could be justifying Islam. He has more to answer for than an Athiest.
Hard to talk to two narcissists . Great job . Great Job Rodi. Like 👍 talking to a two six year olds.
Has DD decided what he is going to do when he grows up? I hope it doesn't involve children, the elderly or food.
If Jesus employed DDs methods, Christianity would’ve been dead by about 50 AD
Good ol' "Knowledge must be revealed by definition" arguement.
Dawkins is the king of "shifted burden of proof"
What’s wrong with multiple absolutes?
I would suggest that the forces of physics are absolutes, and they do not effect each-other, rather, they effect other things (matter), and the stronger of any set of forces wins out (or combines together) to determine the results.
1: If I remember correctly, the creator-creature distinction was one of van Til's feeble tricks to 'demonstrate' that Man and God are similar but never identical. It thereby presupposes the existence of gods as well as the act of creation and as argument is therefore a circular fallacy. Furthermore, the distinction claims to explain why the intelligibility of life, the universe and everything is by definition not accessible to Man thereby demonstrating that Diaper Dontovertalkme claiming to know god in all her intricacies is not human.
2: "By what means do you know etc...." bounces right back at DD and then you get the non-informative answer "by special and general revelation" which always makes me laugh.
Next. 🤣
Maybe someone should ask him how he can tell the difference between revelation and a bone pressing on his brain.
People need to call DD out more on this category error bullshit. Its special pleading, plain and simple.
You can know the Universal Structure exists the same way you know the Sun exists.
Communication is not necessary.
LOL
Has Darth ever labeled the "category" his god claim goes into that distinguishes it from any other bullshit?
@@markpalmer9844 Or maybe to him it's in the category of "things I claim that reveal but refuse to manifest"?
10:00 This is the worst moderator ever. He just said that Rodi hasn't had the opportunity to speak on his own and then on the next statement asked Darth to continue speaking. A good moderator would have said since Rodi hasn't had enough time to speak on his own, he would then allow Rodi to speak.
All declarations are in some degree arbitrary. There is always epistemic uncertainty. Darth thinks he has a solution based on a divine revelation. ROFL
What should I do with all the other divine revelations in history?
The universal structure doesn't exist because...?
Darth’s critical weakness, a parrot.
Haha, this was too funny
I guess according to Darth, filibuster = explaining your position.
Rodi basically saying it was revealed to him and darth can’t handle that. I’m dead lol
Jesse is very bad at modding
Yeh he’s so bias
Hell jesse was in there rubbing Darths balls with a mink glove…. ‘OK Darth since RODI has not had a chance to lay out his position, would you like to do it for him?’ ….. WOW
He wasn't modding, he was ball-gargling.
How do you know this rock exists? Did it communicate to you?
Very one sided modding.
Darth can interupt as much as he wants and when the other pushes back the mod said
"Darth let him finish. He's wrong but let him finish"
Yea I don’t see how he was ‘wrong’ either but that was supposed;y just settled upon.
Wrong because Darth and the mod disagree
Well technically a mod isn’t supposed to be there agreeing or disagreeing and taking 1 side or the other which clearly was happening the mod in this case and most others is really just Darths guard dog.
Darth thinks "by definition" is a way to find out something about the real world?
Darth presupposes his fundamental foundational entity but criticizes those who do the same because it isn’t the same one he chooses.
Darth, I’m rubber you’re glue, anything you can do my god can do better.
Poor sad little Gary Milne humiliated himself again
Yes. We're all good at something!
‘We’re not defining god into existence, we’re just saying God is the thing which necessarily exists’ …. OHHH ok Darth thanks for making that clear. 🙄
Dd is such an old sideshow what a joke
Darth is getting a taste of his own medicine
Darth complains when someone talks over him, but he does it to others all the time.
Its funny because even if Darth was able to demonstrate that Brodis' or anyone's position is incoherent that still doesn't get you to the existence of God let alone the Christian God. Gods existence or non existence does not depend on what any of us believe.
I honestly don’t know why people still give Darth Dorkins the time of day.
When Darth can’t refute a point he claims the opposition is not coherent.
Waiter .... We're gonna need some extra croutons to go with all of this Word Salad please !!
This Rodi guy is a master troll 😂
He just doesn’t let anyone talk.
Smoke some mary jane FIRST. Then Darth starts to make some SENSE thru the haze. ☁️☁️☁️
What a grotesque. My head hurts from listening to that Darth guy.
It's crazy how Darth only talks to people who over talk him. You'd think maybe he's the problem, but nah, that's not possible.
God can’t be singular. Because if Angels are also timeless and created before the universe, then they have existed as long as god has. That seems right to me.
I didn’t think Darths god is ‘singular’ anyway isn’t it in 3 parts isn’t he always saying that?
A concrete universal can be a mind like ishgabobleslerfingshins can be a mind or a concrete universal for that matter. Because we do not even know if a concrete universal exists much less if it does it has to be a disembodied mind seems a really huge jump to that from it must be something we call "god".
If minds are contingent (as they are) then they cannot be ultimate. For Darth to say God is a noncontingent mind is to equivocate on the word mind.
In our universe, an efficient cause always acts upon a material cause. For Darth to say God is an efficient cause that creates the material cause is to equivocate on the word causation.
Ultimately Darth's special pleading explains nothing and, in fact, only deepens the quandry unnecessarily.
Your problem regarding the topic of minds is, you're taking what theists say about God, then you're critiquing it as if what theists said about that topic are univocal statements about God. And that's not the case. We can only speak analogically about God from our finite and ignorant perspectives. As humans, who probably don't even possess one percent of all the knowledge that is possible, regarding the reality of God. When we say, the mind of God, that refers to the supremely rational and mind like, transcendentally necessary ultimacy. And you cannot critique that negatively, because you don't know what the full nature of that is. You have practically nothing to work with for a critique! Due to the hiddenness of God, and how God operates mysteriously, apparently.
_For Darth to say God is an efficient cause_
That's not a univocal statement about God. Its analogical.
_that creates the material cause is to equivocate on the word causation._
That's a non sequitur. We haven't answered the question of what is the nature of God and God's creative actions.
_special pleading explains nothing_
There is no special pleading. You don't even have a coherent critique to begin with.
_and in fact only deepens the quandary unnecessarily._
That's a non sequitur.
@@ChessArmyCommander So blah blah blah, we made it all up and theres no way of telling what is reality! Is that what your saying? I mean, we gave god a mind but no dick and balls? Seems unfair. Poor thing.
@@ChessArmyCommander You’ve just laid out the argument that you believe in something that you can neither explain nor understand yet it is the foundation of your worldview. Congrats. You have no idea what it means for God to be a mind. You have no idea what it means for a mind to create a physical universe. Your belief explains nothing.
@@ChessArmyCommander We hardly know anything about the nature of God, but we know one exists and which God it is. Yup, that makes perfect sense.
