DOBBIE'S ATHEIST VIDEO LIST: July 2013

Quiz Show (Bible Contradictions)

09:53

Apologists have posted YouTube videos refuting the "Quiz Show (Bible contradictions)," the above video. But they also add words to scripture in order to do refute stuff! In my ever so humble opinion, these contradictions are good ones and hard or impossible for Bible theists to get around.

One excuse is that God didn't exactly "rest" on the seventh day. Instead "he ceased work and enjoyed his creation." Well, if that is what was meant, scripture could have made it plain. But it didn't make it plain. Instead it says rested, and that translation is in most Bible editions.

Besides, God saw that his creation was good on each of the successive six days. But the apologist says that now God ceased work and enjoyed his creation (words the apologist adds to scripture), on the seventh day.

In other words, the video refutations square the circle.

Here's one such one (right below). Judge for yourself if there's fancy apologetic footwork going on.

God vs. Science (animated Christian PR)

Dobbie's remarks: In this video, the Christian says evil is merely the absence of God. It sounds to me as if God can be absent. But I doubt the Christian means God's absenteeism! Further, the Bible itself says "God brings destruction," "God causes good and evil to happen," and "God brings a delusion." So evil isn't merely the absence of God.

Science vs. God debate

Dobbie's remark: I say science doesn't refute God exactly -- but it refutes some religious claims, such as the claim that the world was created in six days.
