Atheists lose their minds over Dr. Sylvester James Gates making Neil DeGrasse Tyson desperate to hold on to Atheism

The comments section on YouTube to my video Dr. Sylvester James Gates makes Neil DeGrasse Tyson desperate to hold on to Atheism was ablaze with Atheists losing their mind—sadly, they blazed so hot that it all came to a quick end.

A certain “Joseph Stokes” stated, “Religion remains the cancer of the intellect of our planet. The religious people were likely afraid of the dark when young and still are. Pitiful!”

I replied:

Friend, your comment is an obvious expression of your childish hatred since 1) “Religion” is far too generic a term for your statement to mean anything, 2) belief in the Bible brought about the scientific method and most of its fields of study, 3) your reference to “religious people…likely” having been “afraid of the dark when young and still are” is a logical fallacy known as an ad hominem. Please reconsider.

A certain Ted LeMoine commented:

Ken Ammi please name 1 correct idea we use today that Religion has given to science. When you’re done I’ll name a bunch that science has taught religion

I replied:

Friend, I am afraid that you are committing that which is a known as a category mistakes. It would be like asking me to name one scientist who uses a microscope to survey the heavens or a telescope to explore the cell. Or better yet, asking me to name one restaurant’s chef who can build a nuclear bomb—after all, cooking and building nuclear devices both involve chemistry. Also, you seem to also be setting up a false dichotomy between “religion” (whatever that is) and science (whatever that is).

Sadly, this person did not reply: I would have gladly gone into texts such as Genesis 1:1’s accurate description of our time, matter, space universe and into the very history of science the methods of which is premised upon a Judeo-Christian-Biblical worldview-philosophy, see Atheists on the Christian / biblical basis for science.

A certain Lifter85 decided to take time out of their day to write, and I quote in full:

No, people like you are the cancer.

I replied thusly:

Friend, what do you propose be done to such a cancer?

Ken Ammi I read the Bible, The Torah, The Quran, The Kybalion just to name a few… however i wanted truth over lies , slavery and deception so I found the thread of truth that connects them all and the true code and message it is telling humanity. … and yea it aint about religion, it’s about the universe and spiritually that has not one iota dealing with mythical things that all religious ppl proclaim as God and kill each other over it and damn every one to hell who don’t believe the mental n spiritual slavery.. and yes Christians take the biggest cake when it comes to babbling and annoying hipocritical people who actually have no spiritual understanding. … if u are a Christian , trust and believe u are not thinking for urself, and u have no clue of the Universal truth that governs all of us… im no muslim and I don’t agree with most of their schools of thought when dealing with ppl who don’t believe as them… but what makes Christians worst than muslims is that muslims follow all of their faiths teaching (for the most part) and not only will kill for that belief but will sacrifice themselves for that belief, while Christians pick n choose of what they wanna follow and believe and will kill for personal means and bigotry and find something in the bible and make it justify their actions in there own head but won’t dare die for what they believe, and then wanna push their bull[****] on every one else , and damning everyone else to hell… dude wake up… I grew up in the church and after going to bible school and reading and studying the bible cover to cover I knew Christianity is the most false of all religions on this planet and it is a cancer corroding humanity’s spiritual and peace on this planet… the propogators of Christ scream “Jesus is Love” “forgive ” but never do they seek peace.. they teach the bible then enslave u and steal money and reality. .. Wake the hell up… think for urself… and stop preaching a to ppl who don’t wanna here it, at least muslims leave u alone if u leave them alone, but Christians are fukn annoying! like The Creator of the universe needs ur help to make ppl believe … smh… use ur brain and ur spirituality u were born with…

Ken Ammi

Friend, apparently you wanted truth and your spirituality led you to condemn everyone who does not agree with you. For example, over the past two millennia there have been billions of Christians and you call them all “babbling and annoying hipocritical people who actually have no spiritual understanding” and you actually claim to know that Christians “have no clue of the Universal truth that governs all of us.” But apparently you do know the Universal truth that governs all of us and it has led you to behave in a hypocritical manner (even while you condemn hypocrisy).

I am not sure why you compare Islam with Christianity but I believe in facts and the fact is that the “Encyclopedia of Wars” was compiled by nine history professors who conducted research for a decade and they conclude that Islam, which has only been around for about 1.5 thousand years, has been involved in half of all “religious wars” of the past 10,000 years (and that does not count terrorist acts).

So, you claim to have found the Universal truth and now you “pick n choose of what” you “wanna follow…for personal means and bigotry and find something in” whatever the Universal truth is “and make it justify” your “actions.”

Obviously, you are very angry and filled with hatred but upon what premise do you condemn anything at all?
Also, that which you claim is the one truth, the Universal truth?

SHA BOOGIE

Ken Ammi … dude u just clearly said Islam is only 1, 500 yrs old and is responsible for all the religious wars for the past 10, 000 yrs… Exactly what I’m talking about… Dude u just clearly made some s[***] up that u think benefits ur argument. .. smh… Universal truth has nothing to do with religion whatsoever, we human beings made up religion. .. the truth is just the truth… but hey.. u guys keep fighting over God (which is totally contradictive ) cause all of you are sleeping and brainwashed, Christian n Muslims alike… smh

Ken Ammi

I know not of what you speak. How is it that I “made some s*** up” when I provided you specific data points along with a citation? Now, you claim to have found the Universal truth and I asked but upon what premise do you condemn anything at all? And also upon what premise do you claim is the one truth, the Universal truth?

Shawarmi Kebabistan

whether God is real or not, any sane person shouldn’t just believe anything without proof. This scientists are doing the world a favor by trying to prove without a doubt whether a God really exists or not.

Ken Ammi

First we are told that God is not scientifically accessible and then we are told that scientists are trying to prove without a doubt whether a God really exists or not. Also, the scientific method itself was established by theists (mostly Christians). Also, since there is no such thing as a field of science that seeks to prove without a doubt whether a God really exists or not then the scientists doing so as misusing their position as scientists. Also, the majority of that all of us believe we believe without proof (though we may have some evidence).

Finally, by stating that “any sane person shouldn’t just believe anything without proof” you are claiming that anyone who believe things without proof is insane and you are holding everyone to standards of truth, ethics and logic yet, how do you demand standards of truth, ethics and logic beginning with something like that nothing caused nothing to explode, that this resulted is human by accident and that our brains haphazardly evolved for survival by accident and not necessarily to ascertain empirical truth?

Wait, how is Neo-Paganism considered Atheism? At their hearts, both Neo-Paganism and Paganism implied the belief and reverence in Nature or manifestations that represent an aspect of Nature. Did someone forget to inform the Atheist community that you actually needed to be SPIRITUAL in order to practice Neo-Paganism???

Ken Ammi

Great question friend, when you listen to Atheist evolutionists it is clear that they “reverence in Nature or manifestations that represent an aspect of Nature” since they view nature as our creator. Thus, the replace awe in God with awe in nature and this is paganism. Also, no one “forget to inform the Atheist community that you actually needed to be SPIRITUAL in order to practice Neo-Paganism” since many have such as Sam Harris the Buddhist Atheist mystic (who does not like the terms Buddhist or Atheist), Michael Shermer stated that his study of evolution became Atheism spirituality that is also holier than thou, “far more enlightening and transcendent, spiritual, than anything I had experienced in seven years of being a born again Christian” as he put it. See my article, “Atheism Spirituality”: http://www.truefreethinker.com/articles/atheism-spirituality

The person who posted this video doesn’t seem to understand what atheism is. It’s a position, not a belief or religion or anything that you would logically “hold on” to. It’s simply the position of “you have not proven your God claim, and until you do it makes no sense for me to believe it”. That’s not to say that a lot of atheists don’t have beliefs that they attach to that, but that’s an individualistic outcome and not relevant to the actual position itself. It’s merely innocent until proven guilty (in this case, the prosecution is accusing God of existing, and the atheist position says God is innocent of the accusation of existing until proven otherwise).

Ken Ammi

Friend, I am unsure upon what authority you define “Atheism” for everyone. Now, even if it is simply “a position” then one can “hold on” to that position or not. Your premise is that you will not believe in anything that is unproven and yet, the very core of your worldview is unproven—that is the very nature of properly basic beliefs. Now, you are clearly implying absolute standards of truth, logic and ethics but upon what premise do you do so?

T Anyan

a·the·ism ˈāTHēˌizəm/Submit noun disbelief or lack of belief in the existence of God or gods. synonyms: nonbelief, disbelief, unbelief, irreligion, skepticism, doubt, agnosticism; nihilism “atheism was not freely discussed in his community” Lack of belief is not the same as an assertion, it merely means you have not been given enough evidence to believe a specific claim. I don’t define atheism for everyone, the dictionary does. Belief may not be the best word here because it encompasses too big a spectrum, so I’ll correct myself and replace “belief” with “faith”. I’m not implying anything in terms of absolute truth; I don’t subscribe to solipsism. There is a threshold of evidence though that is typically regarded as objective truths that we can all agree upon, and that threshold is greater as the claim gets more fantastic (ie.. an ancient book that claims to be true and speaks of miracles and events that defy what we know of the natural world today, requires greater evidence than simply it’s own assertion that it’s true). You aren’t wrong that you can “hold on” to a position, so maybe I misspoke there. A position is far more fluid to change than faith though, as more often than not positions are open to change based on evidence (especially in the case of any skeptical position which includes atheism).

I know I altered the playing field slightly here by changing “belief” to “faith”, so that’s on me for not being more explicit in my original comment.

Ken Ammi

Friend, selectively quoting one single (uncited) definition of Atheism does not answer whence you got the authority you define “Atheism” for everyone. There are many academic/scholarly definitions of Atheism including that it is a positive assertion of God’s non-existence. Also, some Atheists, such as Michel Newdow, claim that it is a religion, the Atheist author of the evilbible site has written that Atheists who define Atheism as a “lack of belief…” are a “few morons” who are “so damn stupid” for doing so. So again, whence have you gotten the authority to define “Atheism” for everyone? And by the way, “the dictionary” is not a citation but an appeal to an uncited supposed authority.

Now, either your every statement implies that you hold to some concept of absolute truth or else you might as well stop commenting. You see, you wrote to inform me that I was wrong and you are right so that is either absolutely the case of you are merely interpreting random bio-chemical neural reactions within the brain of an accidentally and temporarily existing bio-organism, you, whose brain haphazardly evolved so as to increase the chances survival (for some unknown reason) and not necessarily to ascertain empirical truth while you sit atop a spinning rock, orbiting an average star in the backwaters of an accidentally and temporarily existing universe—in which case, what is the point exactly?
I asked upon what premise do you hold me to absolute standards of truth, logic and ethics?

T Anyan

For f[***]’s sake dude, do a little work yourself instead of criticizing me for not citing what was clearly a copy/pasted definition. It’s the first thing that shows up on a Google search and it’s from Merriam Webster. Not satisfied?

Ken Ammi

Friend, please mind your manners. Well, you clearly disagree with other Atheists. Now, you have pinpointed the problem with modern day pop-“research”: type something into a search engine, simply copy/paste whatever comes up first and then demand that all adhere to your authority (or that of Merriam Webster). So I am not satisfied? No, because I have gone through the trouble of compiling various definitions of Atheism from various scholarly sources and so I know that you are conveniently avoiding the, perfectly valid, ones which include the “affirmation of God’s non-existence definition. These are by me:
http://www.truefreethinker.com/articles/%E2%80%9Catheism%E2%80%9D-what-d…
http://www.truefreethinker.com/articles/atheisms-sects
http://creation.com/atheism#definition
http://creation.com/atheism#atheism-variations

Lastly, I see that you are avoiding dealing with the issue of you interpreting random bio-chemical neural reactions within your brain and also avoiding upon what premise do you hold me to absolute standards of truth, logic and ethics. That, or so it seems to me, would be a more interesting discussion than citing and quoting dictionaries back and forth.

Sound Logic

Lmfao yeah Suffering, pain and death is all around us. Must be your God a work huh? Smh moron.

Ken Ammi

Friend, your comment is a conclusion so please elucidate how you reached it, show your argument.

TheBlackIdentity

Ahh yes. More proof religious people are the trash of humanity. If anything this just proves that this so called god is just a computer programmer. You’d need to be a complete and utter tard to start worshiping a computer programmer but whatever. lol

Ken Ammi

Friend, it is saddening and astonishing to encounter people who are so utterly saturated with pure hatred. May I recommend you deal with your anger problems before attempting to engage strangers online?

TheBlackIdentity

You already wrote this. xD Explain why I’m angry! If anything I’m entertained by your stupidity. 😀

Ken Ammi

How am I supposed to explain “why” you are angry? Only you truly know why. So then you triple down on anger by taking yet another childish school yard bully tactic and one that is logically fallacious at that since even if someone is stupid it does not mean that they are wrong on the issue at hand: even a broken clock is right twice per day.

TheBlackIdentity

So basically you’re saying you worship a computer programmer or more likely a team of them and I should respect your decision to do so? Yup! you’re an idiot. 😀

Ken Ammi

Friend, if that is the sort of conclusion that makes you pleased with yourself then I pity you.

TheBlackIdentity

I haven’t seen you make a single worthy argument yet. The title of your video already shows you’re a fool. lol

Ken Ammi

“…it is very easy for a man to seem to himself to have answered arguments, when he has only been unwilling to be silent”–City of God, Book 5, Chap. 26

TheBlackIdentity

So where is you argument? You posted this video and gave it a title to imply that scientists found God’s handy work but you’re unwilling to accept the simple implication of this theory. That God doesn’t exist. Yo’re worshiping a computer programmer who,to top it all off,has no incentive to tamper with the simulation thus all your prayers are just wasted time.

Ken Ammi

Well, you cannot pigeonhole me into accepting the premise that “God doesn’t exist” (a claim for which I would like to see evidence, please). Now, who is the “computer programmer”? Also, why would prayer be wasted time? After all, computer programmers can manipulate the code whenever they want.

And that, as they say, was that.
