Knowing that Matt & Johnny ask people to call in. It flies in the face of all their charter's requirements for having a 501(C). They're supposed to be education everyone, but Dillahunty has no advanced degrees, not in anything, and should at least have one in *Divinity* when it's the subject here. "Call in and be made fun of." "One more word out of you and I'm hanging up on you." Why ask people to call in at all? It's so Matt can try and make fun of them and then the cretins in the comment section jumping on Dillahunty's uneducated bandwagon.
@Dark Angel Your idea that education doesn't matter doesn't stand on its own merit, it can't. *Expert Witness* a person who is permitted to testify at a trial because of special knowledge or proficiency in a particular field that is relevant to the case. If there is no criteria for who gets to teach then you'd be right, it only matter the worthiness of the statements, but that idea itself is a self referential paradox in a dispute where no arbiter or Judge is present. Of course Matt Dillahunty without any education whatsoever is going to say, "My ideas about religion are just as good as yours." But I'm an expert, I have the most sacred Holy Cross in human history which rests atop Mt. Rubidoux. I've been through my own covenant (Jesus Christ's covenant) *four hundred times* with an open mind. Matt can't be right ever because 1. he has a religious axe to grind and that's seen 2. "I'm a *positive* atheist," and 3. "I'm an anti-theist." That's a hater.
There was an inkling of a point there that he was not articulate enough to develop. In theory the general citizenry of any country (even a capitalist one) has as a primary goal to get resources in order to survive, then keeping up becomes a secondary objective. However, in practice that is not how it works in the US. Like Matt said, even relatively poor people go out and get the new iPhone, fresh haircuts and expensive clothing because our economy is built to benefit those who do those things and it is one of the primary ways in which we compete (along with practical and social skills). Something along those lines would’ve been a much more interesting conversation, but as per usual Matt just endlessly berated him and titrated the conversation.

Alexander Hamilton from the treaty of Tripoli. ""As the Government of the United States... is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion -- as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity of Musselmen -- and as the said States never have entered into any war or act of hostility against any Mehomitan nation, it is declared by the parties that no pretext arising from religious opinions shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries." This document was endorsed by Secretary of State Timothy Pickering and President John Adams. It was then sent to the Senate for ratification; the vote was unanimous. It is worth pointing out that although this was the 339th time a recorded vote had been required by the Senate, it was only the third unanimous vote in the Senate's history. There is no record of debate or dissent. The text of the treaty was printed in full in the Philadelphia Gazette and in two New York papers, but there were no screams of outrage, as one might expect today." Alexander Hamilton from the treaty of Tripoli.

Always slays me when people call this a Christian nation, are shown the secular fundamentals of not just the laws of the land but the Constitution itself, and then go on to interpret the amendments using personal projection without a shred of historical context. It's (sadly) these people that underline the founding fathers' built in elitism, their lack of faith in the greater public to rule themselves, instead relying on representation. These people would never govern in good faith for the greater community. They'd persecute and call it their holy mandate to do so. Man are the next two decades fraught with uncertainty.
@Naukumaija Mau-mau I never said "inherently" stupid. If anything, I find the incidential stupidity I see around me a huge motivator for wanting better education etc.
and furthermore... both "Do not murder" and "Do not steal" were laws in many ancient codes that predate the Ten Commandments of the Bible. So, um yeah, the entire idea of those laws "coming from the Bible" is wrong
We've all been there, a conversation with a stead fast willing to die for what they believe in believer, that doesn't read the book or books that is the foundation for the belief. Frustrating and yet hilarious. I was talking to a catholic who said, "I think the KJV bible is the true interpretation and the only one you need" I had to point out that the KJ version is the protestant version. Il never forget the look of "OH 💩" on his face. 😂😂🤣
I always find it so fascinating that someone can call in believing that the ten commandments are rules directly from their god and then not know them. I mean, the most powerful thing ever tells you clear guidelines for what is right and wrong and you jsut don't bother to learn them?
Just for the records and using his logic: from the GDP per Capita it follows that Allah is the one true God, and thus Jesus is the second greatest prophet after Mohamed.
To tag on to what Matt said about the Ten Commandments, most Christians not only don't know what the first commandment, the second commandment, etc., say, they also don't know that the first version where those come from was done away with when supposed-Moses supposedly broke the supposed tablets. The second version he supposedly carved to replace them is only vaguely like the first version and is mostly about observing different feast days.
i always ask a "believer" of the bible, "what are the 10 commandments". so far not a single person i know in my life has been able to answer it correctly off the top of their head. so i always follow that up with "how seriously do you take your religion if you have no idea what the 10 main rules are to follow"?
The reason most Christians don’t know the Ten Commandments because it’s in the Torah and they only pick the anti gay part of it and the term the Ten Commandments. But they don’t know anything about what they reference. They also ignore that there are 613 commandments and lots more that they ignore all together.
One of the most important reasons the founders wanted to separate from England was because the King of England was also the head of the Church of England and the founders didn’t want to be told by a king which religion to follow. This is literally the entire reason we are not a Christian country, we are a secular country who just happens to have the biggest GDP of any country. This caller’s entire argument is shredded by this one fact.
why would having the most money and weapons mean your imaginary friend is real and that we should all do what he says, even when what he says is evil or makes no sense?
Arguably the US would have a stronger economy under a secular nation as religion would not be standing in the way of progress. If the US started out secular back in the 1600s, that modern day America is probably 50-100 years ahead of where we are now. More progress = more economic growth

Dont disagree with matt on most of this. Except the male to female ratio in this country is almost 1:1. The OVERWHELMING majority is Christian. Not really the same thing. You cant say the religion it completely disconnected with day to day life here. Granted separation of church and state. Though you cant say religion is completely separate from politics (Abortion?). Politicians who are pro life may not quote the bible directly but you cant say the influence isnt there. Life used to be VERY hard for people. We cant even imagine how hard. Average life span 30 years? Death of infants common place. Rampant disease, poverty, hunger, etc. How much of Religion got people through? Even Matt cant answer that. Would an Athiest nation be better? Dont know. It may not be. It may be far worse than people think. Well people are rational right? No no they arent. It's easy to be moral in safety and security with a full stomach and no ailments or pain that you have to live with.
Wow! The commandments and laws both have don't steal and don't kill! How crazy! Who would've ever thought that people would think killing and stealing are bad and include them in nearly every legal or moral code ever created?
idk if i think Matt handled this well... in getting verbally hostile like that is pragmatic (regardless of the fact that he was right, in everything he said)... I know he's only human, and definitely deals with this stuff a lot more than your average person... so I'm trying not to be too hard here... but i just wonder if it would've gone better had he was able to refrain from blowing up at the guy. idk this also is something i think about myself, too. I've had instances of getting angry when people are dishonest with me like that and act like they're interested in having an open, and honest discussion about something, but aren't... and I'd get angry and sometimes raise my voice, and curse... and i at least almost always regret it once i calm down, if not always... I guess my questioning how Matt handled it is also questioning myself.
@@Sneed_formerly_chucks i don't think you're right. he's talked about it on other videos, and normally is calm. and he has expressed regret for some of the times he's done it, but it could be the case that getting positive reinforcement from people for that might have made him less prone to try to keep his calm at times. however, i don't think he does it, intentionally, to get views. there are many times he tries to keep his calm, and many of those times he does a far better job than i would have, even with frustrating callers.

When 1/2 of a dispute is people brutalizing the other half then we know the rules of evidence have radically been twisted in favor of the sadistic wretch.
This is brutal. Like an episode of Oz when Adebisi gets a new cellmate.
To be fair, at 7:33 Ray said "Thou shalt not murder, thou shalt not steal." and Matt accused him of trying to name the same commandment twice with "murder" and "kill".
Yeah that was just a miscommunication that wasn't immediately rectified and the convo got a bit derailed
It's been awhile since a truly highlight reel-worthy Matt smackdown. Fucking loved this.
Oh Man. My sphincter kept spasming just listening to this. That had to hurt.
Hi! Long time. I hope you are doing well.
@@zemorph42 Still kicking, so could be worse! ;-)
@John Broadhurst Yeah. He trained me to clean up his bodily functions every day and to provide him more material with which to produce said bodily functions.
Matt should perhaps charge us for all the sphincter clenches he's inducing in the listenership.
He should have bowed out gracefully, when he still had the chance, but that would have required having a modicum of intelligence, and honesty.
That's the problem, they can't just bow out. If they give one inch they might lose their magical sky daddy and might lose an eternal half-life of bowing at his feet. They are so convinced and have so much to lose (in their minds of course) that they have no other option than to double down even in the face of rationality, reason and mountains of evidence.
yeah...instead he got owned then buried.
Caller: ‘You can’t say that in a public forum’.
I’m fairly certain that a call in show thats free to watch on the internet can be called a public forum.
I laughed most of the way through this episode it was very entertaining to see you guys just own the shit out of this caller
Bet you $10 the caller immediately went to study the 10 commandments after the call 🤣
You will lose, the caller is a super lazy person, isn't that obvious.
@@murali-alive lol perhaps you’re right
I like the “if my engine is better than your engine” argument. Let’s forget Non-Christian Japan makes the best engines
Alexander Hamilton from the treaty of Tripoli. ""As the Government of the United States... is not in any sense founded on the Christian religion -- as it has in itself no character of enmity against the laws, religion, or tranquillity of Musselmen -- and as the said States never have entered into any war or act of hostility against any Mehomitan nation, it is declared by the parties that no pretext arising from religious opinions shall ever produce an interruption of the harmony existing between the two countries."
This document was endorsed by Secretary of State Timothy Pickering and President John Adams. It was then sent to the Senate for ratification; the vote was unanimous. It is worth pointing out that although this was the 339th time a recorded vote had been required by the Senate, it was only the third unanimous vote in the Senate's history. There is no record of debate or dissent. The text of the treaty was printed in full in the Philadelphia Gazette and in two New York papers, but there were no screams of outrage, as one might expect today."

75% of our GDP is consumer spending, keeping up with Jones’s, and to covet.
Don't forget the whole credit card debt. Huge problem in Canada and USA.
@@RideAcrossTheRiver I don’t know about Canada, but in US, credit and it’s limit or rating is the currency.
"I'm getting ready to own you, like a slave!" LMAO Matt wants all the smoke haha!
Religious countries seem to have the highest occurrence of poverty, crime and incarceration. Secular countries have the highest cases of individual freedom and happiness. Simple verifiable facts, goodbye, Ray
Conversing with someone confident in their ability to make specious assertions is one of the most depressingly hilarious interactions in the modern world.
Astrology nuts do it too. Tell them Mars is a rusty, dusty, frozen desert with one-third the area of Earth and 11 percent its mass. The astrology nuts will say, "but everything is connected, so it's not important what Mars is ..."
What a spanking!
Always slays me when people call this a Christian nation, are shown the secular fundamentals of not just the laws of the land but the Constitution itself, and then go on to interpret the amendments using personal projection without a shred of historical context. It's (sadly) these people that underline the founding fathers' built in elitism, their lack of faith in the greater public to rule themselves, instead relying on representation. These people would never govern in good faith for the greater community. They'd persecute and call it their holy mandate to do so. Man are the next two decades fraught with uncertainty.
Well, there's that religious nut bar just elected to the U.S. Supreme Court...
I've never been more impressed by the founding fathers foresight than when you just put that the way you did just now.
It has become if they say it enough times then it will become true. The religious right of the US is working really hard to make so.
@Naukumaija Mau-mau I never said "inherently" stupid.
If anything, I find the incidential stupidity I see around me a huge motivator for wanting better education etc.
@Naukumaija Mau-mau I don't know if they thought of others as inherently or incidentally stupid.
There's a big difference.
Hi GDP? Yeah! Go religion 😂 jk
I love how these callers are so ill-informed on their own book. 😆
Wow, Matt was in fire!! Easily in top 3 "best rebuttal"
Absolutely owned!! Great job Matt!!
and furthermore... both "Do not murder" and "Do not steal" were laws in many ancient codes that predate the Ten Commandments of the Bible. So, um yeah, the entire idea of those laws "coming from the Bible" is wrong
Well, Matt murdered that argument.
All Matt needed to do was tell the caller to watch videos of "Black Friday" to prove his point about "Keeping up with the Joneses"
We've all been there, a conversation with a stead fast willing to die for what they believe in believer, that doesn't read the book or books that is the foundation for the belief.
Frustrating and yet hilarious.
I was talking to a catholic who said, "I think the KJV bible is the true interpretation and the only one you need"
I had to point out that the KJ version is the protestant version.
Il never forget the look of "OH 💩" on his face. 😂😂🤣
I always find it so fascinating that someone can call in believing that the ten commandments are rules directly from their god and then not know them. I mean, the most powerful thing ever tells you clear guidelines for what is right and wrong and you jsut don't bother to learn them?
If you’re ever looking up the definition of ‘beat down’...just reference this video.
Ray, your ideas are bad and you should feel bad. I love it.
Great job guys and I do love the hat
Hey, ROFL... I like Johnny.
He is the comic relief that is 180 out from Matt's merciless verbal killing.
This is a GREAT DUO..... this two !
Just for the records and using his logic: from the GDP per Capita it follows that Allah is the one true God, and thus Jesus is the second greatest prophet after Mohamed.
this is the most comprehensive putdown on this show ever :D:D:D:D
To tag on to what Matt said about the Ten Commandments, most Christians not only don't know what the first commandment, the second commandment, etc., say, they also don't know that the first version where those come from was done away with when supposed-Moses supposedly broke the supposed tablets. The second version he supposedly carved to replace them is only vaguely like the first version and is mostly about observing different feast days.
Ray is from the Mile High state. I think he is high AF
This is like the bar scene in A Bronx Tale. Now yous can’t leave.
i always ask a "believer" of the bible, "what are the 10 commandments". so far not a single person i know in my life has been able to answer it correctly off the top of their head.
so i always follow that up with "how seriously do you take your religion if you have no idea what the 10 main rules are to follow"?
Can we say "epic slapdown"?
"You're an idiot" Say it again Matt! "You're an idiot" ahahahaha! Priceless muh dude!
Hilarious segment! Ray in Colorado, please do your reading before calling in.
Matt is the “Kung Fu Grandmaster” of ACA.
US GDP per capita ranks 13th, behind Qatar, Brunei, Kuwait, Norway....
Man! Matt schooled him!
Loving Johnny P. Angel more and more every time I see him. More Johnny.
Yes. He's smart, not intimidated by Matt, and he's funny!
hahaha this was the funniest and worst argument i've seen in the 1000 years i've been watching the show
The reason most Christians don’t know the Ten Commandments because it’s in the Torah and they only pick the anti gay part of it and the term the Ten Commandments. But they don’t know anything about what they reference. They also ignore that there are 613 commandments and lots more that they ignore all together.
Good point
How dare they force this caller to answer questions with yes or no. That's persecution.
/s
Africa is very religious and is huge with wide open spaces with hundreds of millions of people but there GDP is a joke.
This was, among a great selection, one of Matt's best moments here. Just my opinion though...
LMAO. This was great
Although many collers deserve to be hung up on, I do love it when callers are left on long enough to see their argument be fully demolished.
Collars too
You don’t even have to say fuck Jesus, you simply have to say Jesus Christ when you bang your thumb… 🤣
One of the most important reasons the founders wanted to separate from England was because the King of England was also the head of the Church of England and the founders didn’t want to be told by a king which religion to follow. This is literally the entire reason we are not a Christian country, we are a secular country who just happens to have the biggest GDP of any country. This caller’s entire argument is shredded by this one fact.
I so much enjoy callers like this one and the way Matt owns them..
These callers remind me why I am not a Christian.
Your head looks better without that hat MATT.....maybe a better hat would look better.
This is the most epic takedown ever!
why would having the most money and weapons mean your imaginary friend is real and that we should all do what he says, even when what he says is evil or makes no sense?
Anyone in doubt of the truth of your comment should actually read the bible.
It seems he doesn't know the religion he belive in and doesn't know the country where he lives xD
Where is the drop in GDP over the last few decades as "nones" has gone from 2% to 20+%? This should mean our GDP has gone down approximately 20%.
“Own you like a slave “, quality!
Arguably the US would have a stronger economy under a secular nation as religion would not be standing in the way of progress. If the US started out secular back in the 1600s, that modern day America is probably 50-100 years ahead of where we are now. More progress = more economic growth
Actually adultery is a crime in many states.
Yea...but state laws have nothing to do with the US.
That is a bad faith argument you are making.
@Cpl Hicks 5 where it is a felony, 17 where it is a misdemeanor...and zero of them enforce that law to begin with.
As they know if they do they get sued, the case goes before SCOTUS and their law gets struck down as unconstitutional.
That is a hornets nest no one wants to stirr these days 😏

There is a bunch of white males reunited for a very important ceremony after creating a very important document; at the end, one of them reads at loud: "We the people, in order to..." etc.
In the back, away from all the commotion, stand a woman, a native of the land, and a black fellow. She: "I don't see any woman...". Native: "They took my land and killed my people...". Black man: "They took me away from my land, and I still got chains in my neck..." And then we have Ray.
That dude got his ass handed to him.....Damn!!!
Dont disagree with matt on most of this. Except the male to female ratio in this country is almost 1:1. The OVERWHELMING majority is Christian. Not really the same thing. You cant say the religion it completely disconnected with day to day life here. Granted separation of church and state. Though you cant say religion is completely separate from politics (Abortion?). Politicians who are pro life may not quote the bible directly but you cant say the influence isnt there. Life used to be VERY hard for people. We cant even imagine how hard. Average life span 30 years? Death of infants common place. Rampant disease, poverty, hunger, etc. How much of Religion got people through? Even Matt cant answer that. Would an Athiest nation be better? Dont know. It may not be. It may be far worse than people think. Well people are rational right? No no they arent. It's easy to be moral in safety and security with a full stomach and no ailments or pain that you have to live with.
Though shall not make cowboy hat jokes.
1st Ammendment of the Texas Constitution.
Just as I read one of them
It was hard not to lol.
I ALMOST feel bad for this caller. This was embarrassing
Got here late, what's up with the cowboy hats?
Wow! The commandments and laws both have don't steal and don't kill! How crazy! Who would've ever thought that people would think killing and stealing are bad and include them in nearly every legal or moral code ever created?
idk if i think Matt handled this well... in getting verbally hostile like that is pragmatic (regardless of the fact that he was right, in everything he said)... I know he's only human, and definitely deals with this stuff a lot more than your average person... so I'm trying not to be too hard here... but i just wonder if it would've gone better had he was able to refrain from blowing up at the guy. idk
this also is something i think about myself, too. I've had instances of getting angry when people are dishonest with me like that and act like they're interested in having an open, and honest discussion about something, but aren't... and I'd get angry and sometimes raise my voice, and curse... and i at least almost always regret it once i calm down, if not always...
I guess my questioning how Matt handled it is also questioning myself.
@@Sneed_formerly_chucks i don't think you're right. he's talked about it on other videos, and normally is calm. and he has expressed regret for some of the times he's done it, but it could be the case that getting positive reinforcement from people for that might have made him less prone to try to keep his calm at times.
however, i don't think he does it, intentionally, to get views. there are many times he tries to keep his calm, and many of those times he does a far better job than i would have, even with frustrating callers.
Irans laws are based on morality. Its just based on different morals to what you believe in.
"I'm getting ready to own you like a slave". Bam, that would be a devastating blow to someone with a brain. Ray is not one of those.
