You're pretty wrong on most things you said.
"anthony, dont care about it, some things make sense to you and some things dont. its good to have a belief even if you look crazy to others but as far as it goes, no-one has the right to judge you or anyone else based on beliefs."
Yes, but at the same time people need a reality check, especially when they are spewing bs about things they have absolutely no idea about. it's not about what makes sense, anything can make sense with enough convincing, it's about whats TRUE and whats FALSE, and that video is FALSE.
"the idea of this thread isnt to disprove ----- i would of posted this elsewhere if it was. "
Well then, im sorry to ruin your thread by injecting reason into it, but as long as i see bull, im going to call it. it's the way i am, whether the person is atheist or not is none of my concern, if it's bs, it's bs, and it should be corrected.
"now ive seen many new theory's make tend to make more logical sense whereas it may not to you. watch this for an example"
that video is way too long for me to watch at the moment, let me just ask you a few questions to see if the video is worth watching.
Is there any non-circumstantial, testable, and verifiable evidence in that video?
Are the ideas expressed in the video based off reasoned fact, or just opinion?
Are the people in the video qualified in the area the video is aimed to make the assertions they make?
"also you are being closed minded by only watching the first one, believing only you are correct"
No, i explained why i was correct, i provided evidence to support the few things i did address, i don't believe im correct, i know im correct based on the evidence i provided, verses the ZERO evidence they provided. i don't assume things.. ever. On top of that, if the first part of the video contains absurd amounts of bull----- the rest will also probably contain the same amount of bull----- im not closed minded, i just have enough common sense not to waste my time.
and by the way, i did skim through a few of them, most of it is pro-islam propaganda, and most of it is lies.
"just like alot of atheist who only get frustrated by listening to others who dont share the same beliefs, there is better things to worry about in this world and time"
This addresses that pretty well.
I don't care what your beliefs are, how badly you want to keep them, how much they mean to you, or what you think of people who prove you wrong, and you're allowed to think whatever you want, but when i see bs in this thread (and any thread for that matter), im going to call it. ive defended points on the anti marijuana side, the religious side, the republican side, and any side that people think im opposed too, because in reality, im not on anyones side, and i don't have beliefs that i hold onto, if it's true, ill believe it after it's been proven, whether or not it helps my argument, and if that means changing the way i think so be it. i don't have an emotional attachment to evolution, the big bang, marijuana (well, maybe a little lol) or atheism. if god came up to me right now and kicked me in the balls, and people saw the same thing, id have to believe in god. would i worship him? no, but id believe in him.
everything i said can be proven, ill site all my information from now on if you'd like, but im not going to stop calling bullshit. this is a discussion thread, right?

i love how the 2 lowest ratings are basically saying that he shouldnt be debunking things. that's life, if it's bull----- it gets debunked, people need to get over it.
edit edit: made it through 16 minutes and they are already using arguments from ignorance.. "idk how it happened, therefore, alien gods did it!" "that is a flat and strait surface, idk what it is, therefore im going to assume they're ancient runways for gods flying down in alien airplanes!"
