How do we know GIIvideo is deluded

theRESPONDENT Says:

Dec 19, 2008 - Atheism is skeptical thinking. Solving a rubik cube is logical thinking. When you turn layers you know exactly where L prime right will be when you turned it. However there is none of this true logic in atheism. If there is please show me one. Until then its still a uncertain belief based on skepticism which i wouldnt account for

SmogFX Says:

Dec 19, 2008 - Atheism embraces reality through evidence, logic, science and skeptisism. But you mentioned true logic, care to explain? Does a deity have true logic or any religion? There is nothing wrong with skeptical thinking, it is how we develope through this world. Tell me why do you think skeptisism is bad? And why do you need true logic to be an theist, what gave you the impression of that?

theRESPONDENT Says:

Dec 19, 2008 - part 1 True logic or really just logic is method of using rules. 5+3=8 now if i go backwards 8-3= ? I expect to see 5 because the first math problem gave me that rule. When i mean logic i mean specific logic (or true) skepticism or the doubting, just because it doesnt seem right isnt really "true logic" its just doubting what may be reality I need logic to prove every point, because i found this really efficient rather than faith. Faith is really accepting what may not be reality

theRESPONDENT Says:

Dec 19, 2008 - As for atheism i havn't seen any real reasoning other than reality of my point of view of this universe. And I havn't seen any evidence or logic that says this is a true statement "there is no God". If there is please update me about it. Until than i see it as an uncertain statement

SmogFX Says:

Dec 19, 2008 - I think it is very irrational to base your perception of reality on this labeled true logic. I'm very interested as to how you evaluate whether or not something exists. How do you know that i exist? What rules and true logic do you use? At what point will that statement "there is no god" will be true to you? If something doesn't exist, what is the evidence of it's non-existence? Are you also uncertain about the statement "There is a god".

theRESPONDENT Says:

Dec 20, 2008 - I evaluate with my senses and rules (depends) I dont know if you exists, you may be a software bot for all i guess, however common sense works in handy too...sometimes All omncient view of the universe determines truly whether somethign does or not exist, same as if it is Of course there is uncertain conclusion if there is a God. How ever through my observation of time and logic i cannot explain the value of time (beginning) please watch "Logic on infintive time" therefore God did it =P

joshTheGoods Says:

Dec 23, 2008 - You reasoning is extremely irrational. You've basically just stated that if you cannot come up with an answer for something then "God did it." I hope your definition of God is "the unknown" otherwise you're just making the same tired "God of the gaps" argument. I believe in my message to you I showed why that line of reasoning is a mistake. I'm still waiting on a response to my logical argument for the non-existence of God! Everyone with any brains knows God cannot be proven, so drop that angle.

theRESPONDENT Says:

Dec 23, 2008 - Thats last comment of mine was a joke.... Besides i sent you a letter, and please dont be close minded and look over my arguements for infinitive timeline. People with true logical sense would never claim that "God cannnot be proven" unless its self contradicting to universes true laws. But there is no way you cant determine universe is only by certanity so would making any statement beyond your senses is irrational to me

nogogma Says:

Jan 11, 2009 - Faith is believing in things the intellect has already rationally confirmed cannot possibly be based on fact and reality but believing it anyway. Yes this form of faith (superstitious faith) is very harmful and dangerous.

CACBCCCU Says:

Jan 19, 2009 - Atheism is the delusion of seeing no need to keep powerful psychotic people in check by reinforcing their delusional notions.

1stoic1 Says:

Feb 18, 2009 - The delusions of those who are diagnosed as being delusional have not necessarily been proven false either (ie communicating with pixies). One is delusional simply by applying irrational beliefs to their worldview, which means that atheism is inapplicable. Theism has no substantial evidentiary support, therefore it is an irrational existential proposition which would make one delusional if upheld.

subnetme Says:

Mar 17, 2009 - Dude can you be even more monotonic? Besides being a stupid Christian?

ms1914 Says:

Mar 28, 2009 - First of all God is...period.... He is GOD!!! He can be or do or say whatever he wants! Second i have a question to all atheists and i beg you Please please give me an answer!!! If God did not create man and the universe where did eveything come from? and please dont say matter or an explosion or whatever.. Im talking about everything right down to microscopic organisms . an atom for instance where did that come from.Oh btw anything you say besides GOD.u must explain where it came from also.

ivorbigun20 Says:

Apr 2, 2009 - i honestly cant believe i am seeing such hateful comments to this person just trying to make a point. simply put i am shocked. now i don't believe in a religion but when you look at life guess what WHAT YOU BELIVE DOES NOT MATTER. if you are a person who lives his/her life as well as he/she can for that person and those around them then you are a good person. if the world acted upon this then there would be harmony. but no two people think alike so we get those who disagree

ivorbigun20 Says:

Apr 2, 2009 - but disagreeing and acting irrationally (like posting angry comments) are two completely different things. like saying "its bad enough your a Christian". this person is fighting for what he believes and i respect him for it. those who believe in a religion are not delusional. the ones who want to change the beliefs of other and in turn effecting there lives are the delusional ones. people who act like this cause wars and problems in society for example hitler diden't agree with the jewish.think

Hardglass52 Says:

Apr 10, 2009 - This is the most idiotic video ever. Atheism isn't a religion, its not a group, like you treat it. Atheists is just people who don't believe in godly entities. how is that delusional?

extape Says:

Jun 10, 2009 - Atheism isn't a thing you fucking idiot. It's simply a word to state a lack of belief in any god(s).

shreddez Says:

Jun 30, 2009 - How come rebuttal to G.I.I. videos is done so horribly and makes no sense whatsoever. Seriously, every single video done in response to his videos is awful. Hmmm. I wonder why that is?

shreddez Says:

Jun 30, 2009 - Sorry bro, that was awful

lovegoddessterri Says:

Aug 8, 2009 - where you high or drunk when u did this video that was awful :#

theunforgivn81 Says:

Aug 16, 2009 - Sorry, but unless and until evidence is provided to show that an idea is true, then it is perfectly rational to conclude that an idea is false due to lack of evidence. The default position regarding any idea is disbelief. We only believe once that belief has been justified.

supercow749 Says:

Aug 27, 2009 - I am pretty sure that is plagiarism using the definition of delusion without citing or crediting the source.

AnemosThrowback Says:

Oct 17, 2009 - "No evidence doesn't always equal DIDN'T HAPPEN"? You're saying that an event can occur without any evidence that it occurred? Okay. I just walked into your room and punched you in the face, and then I wrote a book about it. You didn't see me or hear me at any point during the event, you know that you're the only person in your room, and you didn't feel me punch you. The evidence shows that I didn't punch you but I insist that I did--after all, I have a book that says it happened, so I'm right!

AnemosThrowback Says:

Oct 17, 2009 - And you can't put atheists in "delusion bubbles." The bubbles are by definition religions. Atheism isn't a religion--it's a lack of belief in god(s). Atheists don't believe in fairy tales like religions since there's no evidence to support them (don't get me started on the bogus "holy relic" excuse--they're all fakes used for tourist attractions. If every alleged splinter of the cross found was real, for example, there'd be enough to build a rain forrest).

DivineTruthRedeemed Says:

Oct 25, 2009 - You had some good points regarding GII's biased argument. Saying all Christians are delusional and that they need to be discarded because their delusion is hurting us as a species is equal to saying that all Americans are arrogant fat pigs that cause all of the world's problems. The sad thing is the rest of the world actually believes that. However, you were wrong about atheism being a delusion bubble. Most atheists are decent people, which is more than I can say for people who say these lies.
