I was thinking about trying to debate him on his show. What would be the point? You aren't going to change his mind. Guys like that aren't looking to debate whether they are right. They only debate to make other people look stupid. Shapiro is another one of the same ilk. To these guys debate is a popularity contest. Side: obvious

but hope is not lost if I can manage to show that he is factually wrong enough Neither of you care about facts, and having the right answers doesn't make a blind bit of difference anyway. Politics has never been about facts. At least, not in my lifetime. Side: but you hate Christians

Thank you for telling me what I care about I gave you my opinion based on multiple conversations made over a three year period. I'm actually fairly well qualified to comment on what you care about. Even though I actually told you what you don't care about. The complete opposite of what you said I did. Side: but you hate Christians

I gave you my opinion based on multiple conversations made over a three year period. I'm actually fairly well qualified to comment on what you care about. On that premise, I am also qualified to comment on what you care about. What you care about and don't care about are obvious judging by the fact that I have witnessed you cling to your preconceived notions of what the facts are for the last three years by distorting and abusing terminology. Your primary debate tactic is to deflect what an opponent says by picking out certain words and attacking their terminology, often changing their entire argument into whatever you want it to be. Also you create your debates with loaded language so you can claim you meant or didn't mean this or that based on convenience. Side: obvious
On that premise, I am also qualified to comment on what you care about. Yes, but there are also other factors at play, such as you being an adolescent, argumentative idiot who usually doesn't understand the half of what he is talking about. Your primary debate tactic is to deflect what an opponent says by picking out certain words and attacking their terminology No, my primary debate tactic is the law of reason. The law of reason says that science is an ideology, because it follows the fundamental principles of ideology. It makes conclusions about the nature of being and/or the universe itself and it supports those ideological principles through the worship and/or application of a god value (i.e. evidence). Conversely, you have no understanding of the law of reason. You simply believe something and then stick your fingers in your ears when it gets pulled apart by someone else.

That's a lot of shit coming out of your mouth for something that's supposed to be on the other side of the digestive system. Well, you preach about facts and science, but in reality you always end up illustrating that you're just another petty adolescent troll, with no real insight or arguments. You essentially just repeat things other people say, and when they are challenged in real time you revert to name-calling and temper tantrums because you're not intelligent enough to actually think about them.

I seem to remember explaining to you how and why science can never guarantee anything in the present moment. It takes measurements which fall into the past as soon as they are obtained. Hence, there is always the possibility that something (or everything) has changed in the timeframe between something being "evidenced" and the present moment. Further to that, there is another criticism to be made about material evidence, which is that it can only be interpreted through the lens of the dominant ideology. That is, people are restricted from obtaining more knowledge by their very own biases in the present. The difficulty theories like natural selection and relativity had while in their infancy illustrates this, but even the initial scoffing scientists did when presented with those theories only scratches the surface of the problem. If a school of fish live in a pond in your back garden and notice ripples on the water every time it rains they might eventually try to figure out why they see ripples. If they get really clever they might take measurements of the ripples to try to figure out what is going on. But even that ideology is going to leave them perilously short of ever figuring out why it rains. Like the fish, people are boxed in by both their physical environment and their cognitive biases. Measuring the ripples is unequivocally a better idea than worshipping the almighty ripple god, but it's still fairly shit as a serious method of discovering what is going on.

It takes measurements which fall into the past as soon as they are obtained. The past is linked to it's own future in ways that make it easier to "guarantee" things. It's called causality. people are restricted from obtaining more knowledge by their very own biases in the present. Science is a "religion" that tells you not to have beliefs, and thus it is the opposite of a religion. t's still fairly shit as a serious method of discovering what is going on. Then why are you jumping to insane conclusions like "life created reality" based on a laymen's level of interpretation of fairly shit methods? Side: obvious
The past is linked to it's own future Linked by variables which do not necessarily even exist in the past. It's called causality. No, the art of predicting the future is not called "causality". That's called soothsaying. Science is a "religion" that tells you not to have beliefs So science has told you not to believe in the big bang, or the boiling point of water, or the colour of the sky? Shut up. Your childlike replies are just frustrating to even read. You cannot argue that you believe in science and then argue that science is the opposite of belief because that's something commonly known as a contradiction. Then why are you jumping to insane conclusions like "life created reality" I did no such thing. Christ, you're such a pointless little troll. I put forward an idea. I drew no conclusions. I put forward an idea and asked other people to consider it. Shut your mouth. You're literally an annoying, persistent adolescent troll. Side: but you hate Christians
