`We are responsible for the earth, all existing life on it and the entire nature of this beautiful planet. Our earth suffers increasingly from the effects of overpopulation. The effects caused by it are based on the increased CO2-emission caused greenhouse effect. The devastating outcoming effects we now experience in the form of climatic change, increasing natural disasters, tempests, volcanic eruptions, earthquakes, hunger emergencies, wars, people migrations etc.` If you want a BABY or young child ..go to poor ,hungry areas and ADOPT one or more . please save the planet
there's no overpopulation problem. all of us could fit perfectly in texas. i'll have six natural birth babies. thats how im saving the planet. wanna get rid of polution? sure, but not people. the more the merrier
@@SNORKYMEDIA Burden of truth don’t work like that ? So , no proof “ you say “ to support you are a soul , living in a fleshly body that turns back to dirt…. So we know with proof our bodies turn back to dirt. That is established ? No or Yes! Yes! Dust unto dust . God breathed the breath of life spoken in Begenning of Genesis . Kjv-Genesis 2:7 “7.And the Lord God formed man of the dust of the ground, & breathed into his nostrils the breath of life & man became a living soul.” This is truth about when man die’s . That body made to last housed in that body forever , until Adam sinned! and back to dust it goes. That soul goes to one of 2 places , since then . The breath of life is the soul! So your have no proof that you are minus a soul . Except to die in your sins & wake up in hell. you are a soul living in a body . So ya just assume there is you not a soul? To believe that is to lie to you soul. To not obey the Gospel message . And die in your sins is to send your soul to hell for that choice . And death is the revealer when that happens to a soul that turned down life everlasting . Understanding this gives hope to that soul who is offered the Gospel message . Sin & Those fallen angels pacify you to hell !!!stop listening to them. Obey the Gospel, continue in a new body after death of our old body .
@@SNORKYMEDIA Either be convinced you are one of the many sinners that is guilty of sins against GOD & you are drawn to the sinless ,all righteous ,Kind Saviours goodness by the Gospel message of the Lamb of GOD, “Jesus Christ “ . That his innocent blood shed at the cross for your sins can & will save you for the repenting & believing that He alone can & will save you for the asking. Or wait till just before the after life takes place minute’s before & seconds after soul slips from your body waking in seeing HELL . That’ll be confirmation Your assessment of the after life is no fairy tale matter . And you made the worst decision of your existence on this earth. After a true conversion in believing the Gospel message happens ,his spirit of truth leads & guides you in your time left on earth sharing Gospel with the whosoever’s that are lost & you staying read up in his holy word with the Holy Spirit teaching you his Word . That’s the other confirmation that you’ve made the best decision of your life. FOR you & angry bird !
Matt loves to cite Stephen Pinkert, but I think Pinkert's conclusions only exist in la-la land. Personally, I used to enjoy fantastic healthcare in the USA. For my family of 4, I paid about $400 per month, with a tiny deductible. Thanks to Obamacare, I now pay $2,000 per month, with an annual deductible of $14,000. This basically means that my family has NO healthcare. Aside from flu hots, I have to pay cash for all healthcare, which means my family effectively has no healthcare. Meanwhile, my neighbor, a worthless crackhead who works under the table and reports no income, gets 100% free healthcare at taxpayer expense. That is certainly not an improvement for my family.
25 years ago, my daughters were itty bitty, and they had friends of the same age a few doors away. One day, the neighboring family was over for a cookout. At some point, the mother said she needed to leave for catechism classes. She was a Lutheran who was converting to Catholicism "for the childrens' sake." I asked the Dad, aren't you going too?" He said, "I dont need to go to church; I'm already Catholic!" As somebody who endured 12 years of catholic schools, I could only burst out in laughter over his honesty. Among all christians, there is nobody more ignorant of the buybull than so-called catholics.
Am a deist...I think am lazy in a way. To avoid overthink how the world began, I like imagining there was a God who made the universe and left it to its own devices... That way, I am at peace ✌️ What I do not take kindly to is religion; purporting that a god wrote a book. He could have easily put those instructions in our DNA or something instead of writing them in one language and have humans translate them to their own languages
I heard AronRa say once, (paraphrasing): When religion has less power, the nicer theists are. The more power religion has, the more theists become mean and hateful. When they don't have much power they are forced to be nice. - (end paraphrase). He is correct.
2 nat’s telling all other Nat’s , we are here by random chance . Some Nat’s know better . Other nat’s insist on casting sand pebbles at the giant Mable wall Called the Word of God. Then celebrate that they explained the creator away ???? . But the marble wall of Truth is untarnished . KJV-Rom. 10:17 Heb. 11:6 Heb. 11:1 Heb. Ch.11 Matt.24:35
Your bible is a worthless pile of superstitious garbage. It’s so easy to disprove it over and over again, yet your cultish ignorance continues on in defiance of truth. Science works to banish human ignorance, like your religion. The only way it still survives is because of violent threats and political manipulation.
Question for Matt. Who has accepted Fauxci as lord and savior. How is that vax knowledge? We now know without doubt. Fauxci lied and people died. They lied about masks. They lied about the vaccines and boosters. They lied about the origins. They lied about funding the gain of function research that made the virus. And even in this event you made a crack about those that trusted the science. Unlike you who trusted the government politicians. Trading belief in "god" for a religion of government is still self delusion.
@louseveryann2181 I do not show up to a county council meeting and rail about federal spending either. Care to guess why, as I am guessing you will need hints. Tell us you smoke poles without telling us you smoke poles.
A bit after 27:00 Aron - "Ken ham now lives in Kentucky.." Wag - "Good!" Aron - ".. But originally came from Brisbane." Wag - "We're sorry!" And this and the following 'thankyou' and its reaction in turn is why Aussie audiences are great. But wait! According to flat earthers, who are largely Believers, Australia doesn't exist so Ham couldn't have come from here and thus does not exist. Hooray!
1:16:08 C'mon Matt, you can do better- "Climate Change" (formally known as AGW), is a misnomer, wrapped in red herring, slathered with Canard sauce, bundled with unfalsifiable anti-Science.
Did you even read what I wrote? LOL, Is English not your native language? When did I say, "Ice Ages never happened?" ------ Do you know what unfalsifiable means? That's just one the many reasons why greens don't use AGW anymore. Oh, haha, I get it, you're one of those people that equivocate the natural evolution of the Planet for billions of years with what they call "climate change' FKA Anthropogenic Global Warming. (There is no such thing as a 'greenhouse effect'; colder can't make warmer, and, you literally can have too much CO2, it's based on a negative feedback. CO2 is a life giving gas. ) What greenies do now, since it's been shown that AGW is BS, ( NOT ONE global disaster has came true since the predications started in the 60's ) they've shifted from AGW to "climate change.' ( Because, no shit, right, everyone knows it's been slowly changing for billions of years. ) Even most theists believe that! So now, when people express skepticism towards AGW or what everyone colloquially now calls 'Climate Change,' CC cultists will then exclaim, "what do you mean, dolt? Climate doesn't change, lol?" Or, that, "it's just changing and we have to do something about it, go vegan and stop using gas, because reasons!" CC is a Saul Alinsky tactic, used as a grift to swindle carbon tax credits to large companies and countries. CC is a misnomer; a fink. Pollution is our current problem (thanks, third world!), not "Climate Change" FKA AGW. Go Nuclear. Eat meat. _____ Matt has been around a long time, even he knows what I meant by that.
The Ark Encounter had the potential to be a WONDERFUL museum about flood mythology, general mythology, meteorology or ACTUAL history, but... what a waste...
if you think Matt and Aron are the most reason and rational people in the world, you need to meet and research more people (Frank Turek, William Lane Craig, David Wood, Andrew Wilson, Lee Strobel, J.W. Warner, and many, many more.
@@digitalscale76 you believe in abiogenesis as credible, plausible, r true, you may want to backtrack your retort on 'someone's favorite fable getting picked apart' . Also, deflection , bait and switch fallacies spotted . try again home slice :)
@@robertgroen2197 quit projecting your faults onto me, I do not hold any beliefs nor do I believe in anything. I only observe evidence. You keep yapping and spamming comments brining in zero proof for your fairy tale claims. Youre a wannabe apologist, my condolences. You also look worse than me after 3 days of ket and coke. Religious defense is nothing but fallacies at best. You have belief with no evidece, I have mountains (literally) of evidence and no belief.
@@digitalscale76 All they have left IS projection. Because they know they're done. With the constantly admitting science is superior to fairy tales, and rationality superior to gullibility... It's tiring. They keep digging their own grave and proud of it. Silly frightened children.
@@robertgroen2197 I dont believe nor I hold any beliefs. Belief is the most dishonest position you can take, with no evidence and against any and all evidence. Your imaginary dictator is not real. Provide one piece of evidence supporting the existence of your sky papa and claim your nobels prize.
Interesting how time seems to be the main requirement for simple desert people's stories to be deemed the word of gawd. They quite rightly mock Mormonism, Scientology etc., but it's different when it's their stories being laughed at. 😂
If anyone proficied WW1 (And I don’t personally call it a proficy) it was Otto Von Bismarck when he said this to Kaiser Whinhelm II “Some damned foolish thing in the Balkans” could set off a widespred European war now if I’m not mistaken he added to that a timeframe of twenty to thirty years until the powder keg that was Europe at that time was to blow. At least Bismarck was more specific about his predictions which is the problem with the Bible which is never specific about anything when it comes to its proficies.
My wife , our son and i and our friends at our Fundamental Baptist Church are value producing human beings creatwed in God's image , we are not filthy apes . Our ancestors are Adam and Eve , not some slimy creature that ' supposedly ' crawled out of the ocean a billion years ago . Jesus is the truth and he is alive today , for he has risen . Darwin was a lying blasphemous con man , snake oil salesman , perverted finch molester , son of the devil and he and his ridiculous psuedo science lies are dead .
The Ark made for the ark encounter is not seaworthy and has a fraction of the animals it should have. With regard to the fact that the undertaking required outside contractors, Ken Ham says Noah could have hired outside contractors. I would not undertake a job facilitating my drowning in favor of a 'perfect' plan for 'perfect' people.
I think the guy with a schizophrenic father was desperate because he clearly wasn't asking for help from qualified people, but the very fact that you two were there and listening to him, and even letting him know he wasn't alone would do tremendous good for him. One of the tricks religion employs to trap people is creating a sense of community, and there's no doubt that atheism needs to foster that sense as well. Matt showed that he could maintain that with his own parents, without judgment, despite the lack of reconciliation. What religion uses as a deliberate tool of high control can be used by atheism as well, not to control and reinforce dogma, but to let people neck-deep in religious circles know that they're not alone and there's hope for them.
By nature, we must unify because that is what we evolve to do. Evolution isn't merely a survival of the fittest, it is necessarily how life achieves homeostasis with nature. Theism is a denial of human nature because if you believe it, suddenly you must accept that you were created in something else's image, and must relegate human advancements to the whims of some invisible, immortal, all-knowing sorcerer. Evolution suggests that we become better over time because our survival necessitates it, while religion attempts to offer a shortcut in exchange for eternal submission on pain of death for anything less.
