In this episode I discuss what I feel are some of the worst (and most common arguments) for Christianity.
*Please keep in mind that all everything I say here is my subjective opinion, and is intended to deconstruct fundamentalist/evangelical/conservative Christian ideologies from an ex christian perspective*
01:04 | "Either god created us, or we are here by random chance"
03:26 | "God exists because you can't disprove him"
05:17 | "Objective morality proves god exists"
10:52 | "The bible is true because the bible says it"
11:51 | "Everything that exists was created. Therefore god exists"
14:04 | "You're not educated enough"
18:41 | When the arguments won't work...they turn to thought-terminating cliches

You will literally never change anyone’s mind by pointing and laughing. You’ll only make them believe harder. If you really have any interest in changing someone’s mind you need to be empathetic.
There’s no point trying to change the mind of someone who actively goes out and argues for why Christianity is true when there’s far more fence-sitters you could talk to.
You’re not wrong. but read that line again. “I suppose it’s improper to…”
I also contend it’s not my duty, obligation, or place to try and change anyone. as long as they do their thing where it doesn’t impact me, then their beliefs are none of my business.
