An excellent short film that explains the problems inherent in arguing for the existence of any particular God(s) and why faith has no place demanding agreement or punishing disagreement. :
This is the sort of thing we should probably point to the next time a True Believer™ argues that the evidence for God is all around us.
Beautiful.
Nice. I’m posting this to a few friends who might profit by it.
It’s a hugely central point. I’d love to see Christians defending why their mythology should be normative, instead of just assuming it should be.
DOF, because the Bible says so.
Jesus loves me, yes He do,
‘Cause the Bible tells Him to,
Little ones to Him report,
They are weak, but He’s a sport.
I can understand almost everything about a Christian who tries to convert people. I understand that they truly believe, and I understand that they might feel compelled to believe by the own personal experience and I even understand that they’re only trying to help by trying to convince me that God exists.
But it boggles my mind how someone who believes in God will look genuinely surprised that I don’t accept their “evidence” without question. It’s hard to imagine the thought process that brings them to the point where they think their arguments will be effective.
This video (and the last one about evolution from the same guy) should be required viewing before anyone begins a discussion about ID/Creationism or the existence of God.
subscribing in case a Christian stops by.
Webs, I know two Christians ballsy enough to approach the event horizon of this film, and they would likely take two different approaches to it. Hope we get to find out.
We won’t find out what their approaches are, unless they post before they get too close to that event horizon…
