David Tucker ah yes, the only thing in the entire universe that can improve a human being... is a supernatural Bronze Age myth. Not art, or poetry. Landscape or beauty. Philosophy or sex. Heartache or forgiveness. Some made up magical deity from a book written thousands of years ago by desert dwelling goat herders and peasants. About talking snakes, dead men that don’t really die, virgins who can conceive, bushes that burn forever. Oh and don’t forget Noah’s Ark. Or are you one of those “modern” Christians who accepts that the _really_ stupid shit is of course not true, but I better be careful cos I’m STILL going to hell if I don’t hand myself over to this celestial authority. Or the BIGGEST insult: that withOUT this divine authority, I would have NO way of being able to discern morality for myself. You are a FOOL if you believe ANY religion or ANY thing that claims to contain “divine” bloody revelation. Religion is MAN made and it’s about time we moved on from all this archaic superstitious tribalism. Whatever you’re selling, I ain’t buying.

Miracles were a joke to Hitch. He just ignored them no matter what the evidence. Hitch who pretends to know the bible as he screws up on it over and over again including what faith means biblically. --"Faith is the surrender of the mind, it's the surrender of reason, it's the surrender of the only thing that makes us different from other animals. It's our need to believe and to surrender our skepticism and our reason, our yearning to discard that and put all our trust or faith in someone or something, that is the sinister thing to me. ... Out of all the virtues, all the supposed virtues, faith must be the most overrated”-- Christopher Hitchens Now, look at what biblical faith really means that Hitch the liar didn't even look at: Biblically, faith means trust. It's a trust by evidence seen. God asks that we prove things. To reason. To get knowledge. To study. God has nothing to hide. We develop trust from what is seen, and that which is not seen yet is trusted also because of the trust built up from what is seen. It's much like a human relationship. We don't trust much until a person has gained that trust from what is observed. The difference is though, God is not limited to human powers. He created us. Romans 1:20 For since the creation of the world God’s invisible qualities-his eternal power and divine nature-have been clearly seen, being understood from what has been made, so that people are without excuse. crossexamined.org/biblical-faith-vs-blind-faith/ www.truthortradition.com/articles/what-does-the-bible-say-about-faith www.revisedenglishversion.com/Appendix/16/Faith_is_Trust www.truthortradition.com/articles/faith-a-confident-expectation-of-gods-promises-coming-to-pass www.truthortradition.com/articles/hebrews-1-11-and-faith Hitchens always went into evasive word antics to avoid key questions like how we got the creation of the universe. Real science says nothing does nothing. Real science says if there was something there already it must fit with the evidence of what we know. We know the 1LT says there's a conservation of energy. It can change forms and neither can be created or destroyed. Creation cannot happen by natural means. The 2LT has various aspects, one being the universe is winding down, entropy. Usable energy is becoming less usable, so at one point usable energy was at its max. This all points to a supernatural creation, by a supernatural creator at a certain point in which matter, space, and time were created. When I read how it can happen otherwise, ALL the fools resort to science-fiction. Once a supernatural creation is accepted, then the next step is finding proof of what supernatural power did it. We can't even get science without God. The laws of nature only can come from a Lawgiver, God. Life only comes from life. Law of biogenesis. God is the reason for us and all we have. kzitem.info/news/bejne/q5-D166EmIuEi4o The odds are NOT there. kzitem.info/news/bejne/uGeVsXmMmnWqlHY kzitem.info/news/bejne/2o1vzZWts4x9pqA kzitem.info/news/bejne/xZqX14erraZmlKw

@@2fast2block This is just self serving nonsense. What we know is that the universe bubble we are a part of goes back to a small unit of time (the planck time), before it would converge into a singularity according to the classical theory of general relativity. But that doesn't take quantum effects into account, so before that the simple answer is we don't know what happened. It is perfectly possible, as some cosmological models propose, that there is a greater cosmos outside our universe that may be infinite and eternal, whatever that might mean outside of the laws of physics in this universe. In any case gods don't solve anything when you just hand wave away the need for any explanation of them. It is just an extra and vastly extravagant assumption that we can discard with Occam's razor. Worse, there is absolutely no connection between some fundamental substance outside of our universe and the prosaic god invented by ancient tribes who didn't know any better thousands of years ago. Even if we accepted the notion that some kind of deistic god existed you would still have all your work in front of you, as Hitchens said. And he is right. As to taking miracles seriously, there just isn't close to close enough evidence to accept any of them and the Christians one are really no different to the miracle claims of other religions in their absurdity and lack of evidence: No Mohamed didn't split the moon in two or fly around heaven on a winged donkey and no Jesus didn't rise from the dead or turn water into wine and there were not talking animals either. The fact that people who claim to be intelligent believe these preposterous unevidence claims is thoroughly depressing and not a good sign for our ability to cooperate in addressing the world's problems. Really, wake up already.

@@corneliuscapitalinus845Religion is a social construct created by humans thousands of years ago. Religion was created more or less to answer questions that early humans couldn't figure out. When a human saw lightning they came to the conclusion some god was causing that. Overtime religion became more of moral institution as human civilization became more complex. Most religions of the ancient era were polytheistic but the modern era gave birth to many monotheism''s, like Christianity and Islam. Religion for many centuries was instrumental in passing laws and determining who could fill government positions. All governments were theocracies. Until around the 17 and 1800's when many countries like the United States and France started a trend. Countries shouldn't be run by the clergy, but by intellectuals and elected officials. This led to a new ideology, Atheism, the lack of belief in any god/s. It is a far stretch to say that every single bad thing that happened was because of religion but almost every single war, genocide was caused in some part by religion. At this point religion is losing it's moral authority almost everywhere in the world and probably for best. However, forced Atheism is something I am against, especially when I see the suppression of Uyghurs and Tibetans in China. I definitely said something that was wrong or I oversimplified events so please feel free to critique this.

Hitch who pretends to know the bible as he screws up on it over and over again including what faith means biblically. --"Faith is the surrender of the mind, it's the surrender of reason, it's the surrender of the only thing that makes us different from other animals. It's our need to believe and to surrender our skepticism and our reason, our yearning to discard that and put all our trust or faith in someone or something, that is the sinister thing to me. ... Out of all the virtues, all the supposed virtues, faith must be the most overrated”-- Christopher Hitchens Now, look at what biblical faith really means that Hitch the liar didn't even look at: Biblically, faith means trust. It's a trust by evidence seen. God asks that we prove things. To reason. To get knowledge. To study. God has nothing to hide. We develop trust from what is seen, and that which is not seen yet is trusted also because of the trust built up from what is seen. It's much like a human relationship. We don't trust much until a person has gained that trust from what is observed. The difference is though, God is not limited to human powers. He created us.

I was just wondering if you would also apply that to Hitchens when he was stating the case that an intervention should have taken place in Rwanda against the genocide, and that Brittain did a noble thing in pushing back the liberian invasion of Sierra Leone, thus preventing another genocide.

@@nothingmatters321 If selling weapons to him was so bad; aren´t you happy then that it was decided by the coalition that having him in power was a huge mistake and he should have been overthrown? All the past blunders and crimes should, in my opinion, warrant a responsibility by those guilty of this crime to make up for this and overthrow the dictator that had been supported in the past. Every attempt to overthrow him in the past by the iraqi people had actually been prevented by the FOUR secret police forces Hussein had at his disposal (which you fail to mention). And you didn´t answer my question. Is it ``imperial violence´´ to apply the same need for taking responsibility in using intervention to prevent genocide, which is what Hitchens was arguing for.
