[0:00] Speaker 1: Hello, and welcome to my podcast. This is an audio
[0:04] Speaker 1: version of my videos available to make listening to my
[0:06] Speaker 1: stuff in the background easier than YouTube makes it. But
[0:10] Speaker 1: since my videos are primarily made for YouTube, there may
[0:13] Speaker 1: be occasional references to visual materials. If you'd like this
[0:16] Speaker 1: podcast ad free, you can join us on Patreon atpatreon
[0:20] Speaker 1: dot com slash Vice Rhino, Please enjoy. Hello and welcome
[0:25] Speaker 1: to my channel, Vice Rhino Here. Happy New Year, assuming
[0:29] Speaker 1: you made it to New Year scripting. Rhino wrote that
[0:31] Speaker 1: on Christmas Eve, because there are a bunch of holidays
[0:34] Speaker 1: this time of year, I say happy Holidays, not Merry Christmas.
[0:39] Speaker 2: Just kidding. I don't actually care. But I did pick
[0:42] Speaker 2: some bottom of the barrel crap to respond to in
[0:44] Speaker 2: order to go easy on myself so that I might
[0:46] Speaker 2: not have to work through all of the holidays. And
[0:48] Speaker 2: we all know that the barrel doesn't get much more
[0:50] Speaker 2: bottom than Matt Powell. Last time we heard from Matt,
[0:54] Speaker 2: he was saying that it's bad to have sex before
[0:56] Speaker 2: marriage because a high school newspaper said. So see what
[1:00] Speaker 2: he's got for us today.
[1:07] Speaker 3: I don't believe in the Big Bang theory, and in
[1:09] Speaker 3: this video, I'm going to give you ten reasons why
[1:11] Speaker 3: that is.
[1:12] Speaker 2: And I'm sure his patented water won't compress that small line.
[1:16] Speaker 2: We'll wind up in there somewhere.
[1:18] Speaker 3: Number one, because if everything was condensed down into an
[1:21] Speaker 3: infinitely dense hot point, everything that you see and that
[1:23] Speaker 3: hot point exploded, let me say, only smaller particles are
[1:26] Speaker 3: going to fly off. It's not going to construct larger
[1:29] Speaker 3: pieces of material. It's only going to shatter and break
[1:33] Speaker 3: down into smaller pieces of energy.
[1:35] Speaker 2: You're mixing up your terminology here, Matt. The hot dense
[1:38] Speaker 2: point that the Big Bang started with did not contain
[1:41] Speaker 2: any matter. It was energy. There were no atoms or
[1:44] Speaker 2: molecules or anything in the singularity. It was just pure energy.
[1:48] Speaker 2: The expansion of space is what allowed the energy to
[1:50] Speaker 2: convert into matter in the first place. It wasn't a
[1:53] Speaker 2: small thing exploding into even smaller pieces of that thing.
[1:57] Speaker 2: It was space itself expanding, giving the energy within it
[2:00] Speaker 2: more room to operate, thus allowing it to form sub
[2:03] Speaker 2: atomic particles and eventually atoms.
[2:05] Speaker 3: Reason number two would be that you cannot take a
[2:07] Speaker 3: small piece of energy or dust and convert it into
[2:11] Speaker 3: a boulder for example, or a planet for example.
[2:14] Speaker 2: It is impossible, Matt, please stop mixing up matter and energy.
[2:19] Speaker 2: One is physical stuff that you can touch. The other
[2:22] Speaker 2: gets counselor Troy pregnant in that weird episode from Next
[2:24] Speaker 2: Generation season two.
[2:33] Speaker 3: Perhaps Ideana Troy is pregnant. She she's going to have
[2:38] Speaker 3: a baby. Baby.
[2:39] Speaker 2: Matter takes up space. Indeed, a small piece of dust
[2:42] Speaker 2: can actually be converted into a boulder with the addition
[2:45] Speaker 2: of other small pieces of dust. Look up sedimentary rock.
[2:47] Speaker 2: Sometimes it'll blow your tiny little mind. Energy, on the
[2:50] Speaker 2: other hand, does not take up space. If I hold
[2:53] Speaker 2: my hand up thusly, it is in a state that
[2:55] Speaker 2: has more gravitational potential energy than if I hold it
[2:58] Speaker 2: down nustie energy same amount of space.
[3:02] Speaker 3: There is no way to convert these small materials. This
[3:06] Speaker 3: infinitely dense hot point that they claim that the Big
[3:08] Speaker 3: Bang was.
[3:10] Speaker 2: The only person claiming that's exactly what the Big Bang
[3:12] Speaker 2: was is you. Everyone else at least understands the difference
[3:15] Speaker 2: between matter and energy, and I am aware that matter
[3:18] Speaker 2: could be looked at as a form of frozen energy
[3:21] Speaker 2: thanks to the equals mc squared thing. But Matt's not
[3:24] Speaker 2: ready for that level of physics yet.
[3:26] Speaker 3: Into gigantic pieces of rock.
[3:30] Speaker 2: You know, I really like how the planet you chose
[3:32] Speaker 2: to show while saying the words gigantic pieces of rock
[3:35] Speaker 2: is Saturn, notably one of the gas giants. Sure it's
[3:39] Speaker 2: got rock in its core, but it has been described
[3:42] Speaker 2: as being more of a slushball of ice, rock and gas. Yes,
[3:45] Speaker 2: that is splitting hairs. But maybe at the very least
[3:48] Speaker 2: we could teach Matt the difference between the rocky planets
[3:50] Speaker 2: and the gas giants. I don't have high hopes, but
[3:53] Speaker 2: surely it's worth a try, isn't it.
[3:55] Speaker 3: The third reason is that you cannot convert dust to water.
[3:58] Speaker 2: Depends on whether that guy from Nile Redd is around.
[4:01] Speaker 2: Dude has made cinnamon candy out of styrofoam, drinkable alcohol
[4:04] Speaker 2: out of children's craft glue, and hot sauce out of
[4:07] Speaker 2: vinyl gloves. Point is, I bet there'd be a weird
[4:10] Speaker 2: chemistry way to turn ordinary household dust into water. Yes,
[4:13] Speaker 2: I know, ordinary household dust is different from space dust,
[4:16] Speaker 2: but I don't think Matt knows that, so it doesn't
[4:18] Speaker 2: matter for this point.
[4:19] Speaker 3: Again, in the Big Bang Model, they claimed that energy
[4:23] Speaker 3: or dust was compacted down and then exploded and converted
[4:27] Speaker 3: into all of the elements on the periodic table, including water.
[4:31] Speaker 2: Dude, come on, you have the periodic table up in
[4:35] Speaker 2: your video right now. I will give you five thousand
[4:39] Speaker 2: dollars if you can point me to the element of
[4:41] Speaker 2: water on that table. This is an avatar. Water is
[4:44] Speaker 2: not an element. Water is made up of the elements
[4:47] Speaker 2: hydrogen and oxygen.
[4:49] Speaker 3: And that is impossible for that to have happened.
[4:52] Speaker 2: Right because water is not an element. But also all
[4:55] Speaker 2: the other elements weren't there either, because the aforementioned pure
[4:58] Speaker 2: energy thing.
[4:59] Speaker 3: Reason number four would be that there are certain elements
[5:01] Speaker 3: that you cannot compress past a certain point.
[5:04] Speaker 2: Here it comes here comes the water can't be compressed
[5:07] Speaker 2: part Okay, out with it, Matt.
[5:10] Speaker 3: Take a gallon of water, for example. Could a gallon
[5:12] Speaker 3: of water fit inside of or be compressed down into
[5:16] Speaker 3: a dot that is smaller than a period on a page.
[5:19] Speaker 2: Nope, And nobody is saying that it ever was. Just
[5:23] Speaker 2: because you don't understand the difference between matter and energy
[5:26] Speaker 2: doesn't mean the Big Bang was impossible.
[5:28] Speaker 3: Absolutely not that it is impossible. So there's no way
[5:31] Speaker 3: that all of the matter that we see existed as
[5:33] Speaker 3: energy previously and was condensed down into a infinitely dense
[5:38] Speaker 3: hot point.
[5:39] Speaker 2: But did you hear the part where you said it
[5:41] Speaker 2: existed as energy previously? Why would it matter how much
[5:45] Speaker 2: water can be compressed if the thing that was actually
[5:47] Speaker 2: compressed was not water, but was the energy that would
[5:50] Speaker 2: exist if you converted all of that water into pure energy.
[5:53] Speaker 2: And do you remember my little demonstration earlier about how
[5:56] Speaker 2: much space energy takes up? Now, I'm sure it does
[5:58] Speaker 2: get wonky when space gets up as compact as it
[6:00] Speaker 2: was the Big Bang. But that is why we pay
[6:03] Speaker 2: the quantum physicists the big bucks, because that is just
[6:05] Speaker 2: beyond me. And while I do like to think that
[6:07] Speaker 2: I have some degree of humility, I don't think it's
[6:10] Speaker 2: a stretch to say that If it's beyond me, then
[6:12] Speaker 2: matt here just doesn't stand a chance.
[6:15] Speaker 3: Reason number five is that chaotic explosions do not create
[6:19] Speaker 3: orderly systems.
[6:21] Speaker 2: And what makes you think that the Big Bang was
[6:23] Speaker 2: a chaotic explosion? My understanding is that it was the
[6:26] Speaker 2: initial expansion of space. It's not that the little dot
[6:29] Speaker 2: of energy exploded within space, it's that space itself began expanding.
[6:34] Speaker 2: This gave that little ball of energy more room to
[6:36] Speaker 2: do things like form particles just the subatomic ones at first,
[6:39] Speaker 2: but quickly moving onto hydrogen atoms, and then we YadA, YadA,
[6:42] Speaker 2: YadA through a whole bunch of it, and we get
[6:44] Speaker 2: the universe that we have today.
[6:46] Speaker 3: Think about it. We live in the Milky Way galaxy.
[6:48] Speaker 3: It is an orderly system. We have a solar system
[6:52] Speaker 3: with planets that go about in a specific orbit.
[6:55] Speaker 2: It's just gravity, Matt. Like, do you remember those big
[6:58] Speaker 2: funnel things that used to be all over shopping malls
[7:00] Speaker 2: that would encourage you to race quarters around them. The
[7:03] Speaker 2: ramp that you drop the quarters down sends them straight,
[7:06] Speaker 2: but because of the slope toward the hole in the middle,
[7:08] Speaker 2: they curve around in a fairly orderly fashion. The only
[7:11] Speaker 2: reason they fall into the middle eventually is because they
[7:14] Speaker 2: lose energy to friction and air resistance. But what about
[7:17] Speaker 2: in space?
[7:18] Speaker 3: But in space, wouldn't it be a different scenario based
[7:21] Speaker 3: on the fact that the space and the air in
[7:24] Speaker 3: the space is much different than the air we have here.
[7:28] Speaker 2: Right you are, Matt. The air in space is different
[7:31] Speaker 2: from the air we have here in that there isn't
[7:33] Speaker 2: any or rather, the particle density in space is sufficiently
[7:36] Speaker 2: low is to qualify as no air. But I'm not
[7:38] Speaker 2: sure that Matt is capable of understanding that distinction, so
[7:41] Speaker 2: we're just going to pretend that there's just none there
[7:43] Speaker 2: at all. The planets also aren't rolling along on a
[7:45] Speaker 2: physical surface, so there's no energy loss to either friction
[7:48] Speaker 2: or air resistance, which means that planets just continue along
[7:51] Speaker 2: in their orbits. I guess I should clarify the analogy.
[7:54] Speaker 2: As Matt himself showed in his video, gravity is basically
[7:58] Speaker 2: a curve in space time, which is often visualized in
[8:00] Speaker 2: a similar fashion to my analogy. The Sun, being the
[8:03] Speaker 2: most massive object in the Solar System by a lot,
[8:06] Speaker 2: is the hole in the middle of the coin vortex.
[8:09] Speaker 2: The planets are the coins. Space time is the surface
[8:11] Speaker 2: of the vortex. The planet's orbit the way they do
[8:14] Speaker 2: because the Sun's gravity is creating a massive version of
[8:17] Speaker 2: the coin vortex in the fabric of space time itself,
[8:20] Speaker 2: but because there is no energy loss due to friction
[8:22] Speaker 2: or air resistance, the planets just keep going in their
[8:25] Speaker 2: orbits for the most part. Collisions, encloses encounters with other
[8:28] Speaker 2: massive objects like Jupiter can definitely cause them to shift,
[8:31] Speaker 2: but as long as nothing interferes, they pretty much just
[8:33] Speaker 2: keep calm. And carry on. No divine intervention necessary.
[8:37] Speaker 3: How could a random explosion create something like that?
[8:40] Speaker 2: A random explosion didn't. The Solar System formed from a
[8:44] Speaker 2: single dust cloud. Now that's not household dust, Matt. Interstellar
[8:48] Speaker 2: dust is made up of a bunch of elements and compounds,
[8:50] Speaker 2: but mostly hydrogen, which mostly ended up in the Sun.
[8:54] Speaker 2: This dust cloud was spinning, so when the dust accumulated
[8:57] Speaker 2: to the point where the Sun and planets formed, everything
[8:59] Speaker 2: had moment, so they just continued spinning in the same
[9:02] Speaker 2: direction that the cloud was originally spinning.
[9:05] Speaker 3: That is impossible only if.
[9:06] Speaker 2: You ignore physics, which you know, I guess you kind
[9:10] Speaker 2: of do. So, sure, it's impossible that physical things followed
[9:13] Speaker 2: the laws of physics.
[9:15] Speaker 3: Reason number six is that explosions destruct things. They destroy.
[9:20] Speaker 3: They're claiming in the Big Bang model that we came
[9:23] Speaker 3: from a rapid expansion or an explosion. If you have
[9:27] Speaker 3: an explosion that occurred from an infinitely dense hot point,
[9:30] Speaker 3: it is going to wreak havoc on whatever is in
[9:32] Speaker 3: its path. It's not going to construct a solar system.
[9:35] Speaker 3: Like I mentioned in the last point, it's not going
[9:37] Speaker 3: to create order out of chaos.
[9:41] Speaker 2: You know, it is wild just how little he understands
[9:44] Speaker 2: about the Big Bang. I know it is a confusing topic,
[9:47] Speaker 2: to be sure, but he doesn't even seem to be
[9:49] Speaker 2: up to speed on these super simplified explanations that science
[9:52] Speaker 2: communicators give to lay people. Given that the Big Bang
[9:55] Speaker 2: was the initial expansion of the fabric of space itself,
[9:58] Speaker 2: what exactly does Matt think would have been in it
[10:00] Speaker 2: it's way for it to destroy?
[10:02] Speaker 3: Reason number seven is that dust cannot start a fire.
[10:06] Speaker 2: My God, that is so free idiotic. Matt, come the
[10:10] Speaker 2: f gone man. So many directions. I could take this like,
[10:14] Speaker 2: I could point out that he's thinking of household dust,
[10:17] Speaker 2: when in reality, most interstellar dust is hydrogen, notably a
[10:22] Speaker 2: very volatile element that is very easy to ignite. Remember
[10:26] Speaker 2: a few years ago, when Matt was making his same
[10:29] Speaker 2: idiotic point about water not being compressible. I did that
[10:32] Speaker 2: experiment where you use electrodes to turn water into its
[10:34] Speaker 2: component parts hydrogen and oxygen. Well, before doing that, I
[10:38] Speaker 2: read multiple articles on how to do that, and every
[10:42] Speaker 2: single one contained warnings about just how flammable hydrogen is,
[10:46] Speaker 2: so use extreme caution. I could also just leave him
[10:49] Speaker 2: with his assumption that this is the same as household dust,
[10:52] Speaker 2: and then point out that dust bunnies are extremely combustible,
[10:54] Speaker 2: to the point where they often appear on lists of
[10:56] Speaker 2: common household fire hazards to look out for. I could
[10:59] Speaker 2: point out that there would have been many elements present
[11:01] Speaker 2: in the dust cloud that the solar system formed from,
[11:03] Speaker 2: and some of them are incredibly likely to produce fire,
[11:06] Speaker 2: like sodium. Make some sodium dust and get it wet sometime.
[11:10] Speaker 2: It'll give you an impressive little fireworks show. But at
[11:12] Speaker 2: the end of the day, Matt is talking about the
[11:14] Speaker 2: formation of the sun and saying that the dust won't burn,
[11:17] Speaker 2: therefore the sun wouldn't ignite. So I could point out
[11:20] Speaker 2: that gas heats up when compressed, and eventually such heat
[11:23] Speaker 2: would be enough to ignite the hydrogen. But that's also wrong.
[11:27] Speaker 2: Most of the heat produced by a gas cloud that's
[11:28] Speaker 2: in the process of becoming a star comes from the
[11:30] Speaker 2: friction of the molecules bumping into each other, which, yeah,
[11:33] Speaker 2: is that whole compressed gas is heat up thing. But
[11:36] Speaker 2: as more matter is added to the gas cloud, eventually
[11:38] Speaker 2: the gravitational forces are so strong that the hydrogen atoms
[11:41] Speaker 2: are forced to merge, forming helium atoms through fusion. And
[11:45] Speaker 2: releasing massive amounts of energy in the process. This is
[11:49] Speaker 2: the ignition point where the gas cloud goes from being
[11:51] Speaker 2: a protostar to a full blown star, and the energy
[11:55] Speaker 2: released through fusion is enough to stop the gas from
[11:57] Speaker 2: collapsing further. But hey, I'm not exactly surprised that Matthew
[12:01] Speaker 2: Air in space Powell thinks of stars as burning like
[12:04] Speaker 2: a campfire rather than releasing tremendous amounts of energy through
[12:07] Speaker 2: nuclear fusion.
[12:08] Speaker 3: Think about it, You've got nuclear fusion in space. The
[12:11] Speaker 3: sun could energy exploding just cause the Sun to come
[12:17] Speaker 3: into existence nuclear fusion. You cannot get a fire from nothing.
[12:23] Speaker 2: Oh damn. He knows this is nuclear fusion. He just
[12:26] Speaker 2: doesn't know that nuclear fusion is not a fire. You're
[12:30] Speaker 2: almost there, Matt. You just need to put like some
[12:32] Speaker 2: effort in.
[12:34] Speaker 3: These elements would have worn out and broken down, deteriorated
[12:37] Speaker 3: and shattered into non existence. They would not have constructed anything.
[12:42] Speaker 2: Okay, Yeah, he has not got the slightest idea what
[12:45] Speaker 2: fusion is. Fusion is literally the construction of heavier elements
[12:50] Speaker 2: from the lighter ones. A hydrogen atom is basically just
[12:53] Speaker 2: a proton and an electron. Usually there are variations, but
[12:57] Speaker 2: that's the common one. And from here I know I'm
[12:59] Speaker 2: going to be ignoring electrons and neutrons and focusing on
[13:01] Speaker 2: the protons. Things get complicated when you start asking where
[13:04] Speaker 2: the neutrons come from. So I am simplifying things. But hey,
[13:07] Speaker 2: I'd be surprised if Matt even knows what a neutron is.
[13:10] Speaker 2: So let's not confuse the poor guy. If two of
[13:12] Speaker 2: those single proton atoms fuse, we now have an atom
[13:15] Speaker 2: with two protons. An atom with two protons is called helium.
[13:20] Speaker 2: So we have just constructed helium from the fusion of
[13:24] Speaker 2: hydrogen atoms, and that process continues up the chain all
[13:28] Speaker 2: the way to iron. But that's past where our sun
[13:31] Speaker 2: is at now it still mostly turns hydrogen into helium.
[13:33] Speaker 2: Point is the Sun is currently constructing things through the
[13:37] Speaker 2: process that Matt says couldn't construct anything. And what's more
[13:42] Speaker 2: is that while he was saying that it couldn't construct anything,
[13:46] Speaker 2: he showed a graphic that was clearly part of a
[13:48] Speaker 2: national geographic documentary showing the construction of helium as I
[13:52] Speaker 2: just described it.
[13:53] Speaker 3: Reason number eight is that nothing can travel faster than
[13:56] Speaker 3: the speed of light. According to the Big Bang theory,
[13:59] Speaker 3: everything was candense down. Everything that you see, all the stars, planets, galaxies,
[14:03] Speaker 3: and oceans, what's condensed down as energy into this infinitely
[14:07] Speaker 3: dense hot point. And then in a billionth of a
[14:10] Speaker 3: billionth of a billionth of a second, it went from
[14:13] Speaker 3: the size of that tiny point to something billions of
[14:15] Speaker 3: miles across, no joke. That is what they claim, and
[14:18] Speaker 3: that is trillions of times faster than the speed of light.
[14:23] Speaker 3: That is scientifically impossible. Nothing can travel faster than the
[14:27] Speaker 3: speed of light.
[14:28] Speaker 2: That is not actually traveling faster than the speed of light.
[14:31] Speaker 2: Believe it or not. The whole nothing can go faster
[14:34] Speaker 2: than light speed thing is about things moving through space.
[14:38] Speaker 2: But remember, the Big Bang was the expansion of space itself,
[14:41] Speaker 2: not an explosion within space. There is no speed limit
[14:45] Speaker 2: on how fast space can expand, at least not one
[14:47] Speaker 2: that we're aware of yet, so this does not violate
[14:50] Speaker 2: that physical law.
[14:51] Speaker 3: Reason number nine is the first law of thermodynamics. Believe
[14:55] Speaker 3: it or not, you cannot get something from nothing. A
[14:57] Speaker 3: lot of people think that you can, and a lot
[14:59] Speaker 3: of people assert that the Big Bang was something from nothing,
[15:03] Speaker 3: that there was literally nothing in that infinitely dense point
[15:08] Speaker 3: nothing created everything. Some people do espouse that.
[15:11] Speaker 2: Not what the phrasing you're using. They don't, But you
[15:14] Speaker 2: know what, I've seen Matt Powell use the relevant Stephen
[15:16] Speaker 2: Hawking quote in the past. So let's have it here.
[15:19] Speaker 2: Because there is a law such as gravity, the universe
[15:22] Speaker 2: can and will create itself from nothing. But here's the thing.
[15:25] Speaker 2: Creationists will often claim that we can't have the laws
[15:28] Speaker 2: of physics at the beginning of the universe, because then
[15:31] Speaker 2: it wouldn't actually be nothing. So we have two options here.
[15:35] Speaker 2: Either the laws of physics exist in this primordial nothing state,
[15:38] Speaker 2: thus allowing for the beginning of the universe as proposed
[15:40] Speaker 2: by Hawking, or they do not, in which case the
[15:44] Speaker 2: laws of thermodynamics also do not exist, leaving us with
[15:47] Speaker 2: literally nothing stopping something from spontaneously forming out of nothing.
[15:51] Speaker 2: But also, that's not what most cosmologists believe. Despite what
[15:54] Speaker 2: Matt said.
[15:55] Speaker 3: How is that possible? How is nothing going to explode
[15:58] Speaker 3: and create everything? That is so ludicrous. This shows that
[16:02] Speaker 3: there had to have been an external force that created
[16:05] Speaker 3: and that leads into point number ten.
[16:07] Speaker 2: Well before point number ten, I just want to ask you,
[16:09] Speaker 2: why do you think that that external force has to
[16:11] Speaker 2: be God. The thing is, we don't actually know what
[16:14] Speaker 2: came before the Big Bang. There are many cosmological models
[16:17] Speaker 2: that all deal with it in one form or another,
[16:19] Speaker 2: and some of them do have what amounts to external
[16:21] Speaker 2: forces causing it, which are not gods. Okay, so now
[16:25] Speaker 2: let's see what point number ten is.
[16:27] Speaker 3: That you cannot get an explosion from nothing.
[16:31] Speaker 2: Mm hmmm, hmm huh. So it's not so much that
[16:34] Speaker 2: nine led into ten, it's that nine is the same
[16:37] Speaker 2: as ten. Though this isn't the first repeated point here.
[16:40] Speaker 2: Two and three were essentially the same, for example, with
[16:43] Speaker 2: two being that you cannot convert dust into a boulder
[16:45] Speaker 2: and three being that you cannot convert dust into water. One, five,
[16:49] Speaker 2: and six were also essentially the same. One was that
[16:51] Speaker 2: explosions create smaller particles, not bigger ones. Five was that
[16:54] Speaker 2: chaotic explosions don't create orderly systems, and six was that
[16:58] Speaker 2: explosions destruct things rather than construct things. If we remove
[17:02] Speaker 2: the duplicates, that's half of his list, which is actually
[17:05] Speaker 2: kind of weird. Five is an okay number for a
[17:08] Speaker 2: list like this, So why wouldn't he just give five
[17:11] Speaker 2: reasons he doesn't believe the Big Bang there's still really
[17:13] Speaker 2: dumb reasons, but at least then it wouldn't look like
[17:15] Speaker 2: he was stretching to come up with enough reasons to
[17:17] Speaker 2: fill a list.
[17:19] Speaker 3: Not only do some people think that there was nothing
[17:21] Speaker 3: in this infinitely dense hot point, but that nothing caused
[17:26] Speaker 3: it to explode. It just happened to explode for no reason.
[17:29] Speaker 3: What if I claimed that nothing caused something to explode
[17:33] Speaker 3: in this room where I'm filming, you probably wouldn't believe me, right,
[17:36] Speaker 3: I'd say that's a little bit crazy.
[17:38] Speaker 2: Is there a spot in that room that contains a
[17:41] Speaker 2: nothing that is similar enough to the nothing that may
[17:44] Speaker 2: have existed before the Big Bang to be comparable? My
[17:47] Speaker 2: guess is on no, So I'm not sure why that's
[17:50] Speaker 2: a relevant comparison. I'd still call you crazy, though.
[17:54] Speaker 3: What if I said nothing caused a detonation to take place.
[17:57] Speaker 2: Then that's the same as the last example used, except
[18:00] Speaker 2: you are less specific about the location. I'm not sure
[18:03] Speaker 2: what the distinction is here.
[18:04] Speaker 3: These are just some of many reasons why I reject
[18:07] Speaker 3: the Big Bang theory and I accept creation science as
[18:10] Speaker 3: being true.
[18:11] Speaker 2: And every single one of those reasons was based on
[18:14] Speaker 2: a severe lack of comprehension of some of the most
[18:18] Speaker 2: basic scientific concepts, like the idea that a hydrogen cloud
[18:21] Speaker 2: in space is different from the dust bunny under your bed.
[18:25] Speaker 3: I believe that God created the world. I do not
[18:29] Speaker 3: believe for a second that the world created itself.
[18:32] Speaker 2: And based on just how little you understand of the world,
[18:35] Speaker 2: I think the fact that that's what you believe is
[18:37] Speaker 2: actually reason enough to be an atheist. That is our
[18:39] Speaker 2: positive argument. Guys, we can win all the debates.
[18:42] Speaker 3: Now.
[18:42] Speaker 2: Hello, hi, and welcome to the super serious Philosophical Debate Institute. Tonight,
[18:47] Speaker 2: we will be debating the proposition God does not exist, which,
[18:50] Speaker 2: of course we all know means that the atheist in
[18:53] Speaker 2: our debate carries the burden of proof for opening statements.
[18:56] Speaker 2: Here's this guy. Hello, Hey, hi everyone, God doesn't exist.
[19:04] Speaker 2: Exhibit A. Matt Powell. He believes in God. Okay, I'm
[19:12] Speaker 2: done with my opening statement. Now I'm done. Now, thank
[19:15] Speaker 2: you so much for that this guy. Now for the rebuttal,
[19:17] Speaker 2: we go to some theologian. Nope, I'm good. God is
[19:23] Speaker 2: dead and Matt Powell has killed him.
[19:25] Speaker 3: And if you're going to argue with me about it, look,
[19:28] Speaker 3: you got to argue with the science. I am referencing
[19:31] Speaker 3: the sciences as my authority on this matter.
[19:34] Speaker 2: I'm sorry, did you just reference the general concept of
[19:38] Speaker 2: the sciences as your authority on this matter? I know
[19:41] Speaker 2: this hasn't exactly been my most rigorous video source wise,
[19:45] Speaker 2: but if you go through the playlist of Matt Powell
[19:47] Speaker 2: videos that I've responded to, holy there are thirty of them.
[19:50] Speaker 2: What am I doing with my life? Anyway? If you
[19:53] Speaker 2: go through that playlist and look at the sources, I
[19:55] Speaker 2: often have dozens of high quality academic sources that refew
[19:59] Speaker 2: every thing that Matt says. And if you actually watch
[20:02] Speaker 2: the videos, you will quite frequently find that Matt just
[20:05] Speaker 2: flat out lies about what his sources say in order
[20:07] Speaker 2: to make his point, with some instances being so bad
[20:10] Speaker 2: that I suspect him of actually having modified the articles
[20:13] Speaker 2: that he's referencing in order to get his screenshots. As
[20:16] Speaker 2: far as I can tell, Matt doesn't believe a single
[20:19] Speaker 2: thing that is actually supported by science. It would not
[20:21] Speaker 2: surprise me in the least if he were to come
[20:23] Speaker 2: out as a flat earth tomorrow. That's it for this one.
[20:26] Speaker 2: Today's Common Today comes to us from Bill Cook four
[20:28] Speaker 2: seven sixty eight, who says, I'm sure Rhano knows this,
[20:30] Speaker 2: but while a small subset of Christianity believes a literal
[20:33] Speaker 2: reading of Genesis is important, most do not. Believing that
[20:36] Speaker 2: stars existed before the earth does not disprove the Christian God. Indeed,
[20:41] Speaker 2: I do know this, but the majority of the people
[20:43] Speaker 2: I respond to here are of the persuasion that do
[20:46] Speaker 2: insist on taking Genesis literally, and the video that I
[20:48] Speaker 2: was responding to that you were commenting on is put
[20:51] Speaker 2: out by an organization that is explicitly Young Earth creationist. Typically,
[20:55] Speaker 2: I tailor my videos to the God that the people
[20:56] Speaker 2: I'm responding to actually believe in, but I don't always
[20:59] Speaker 2: make a c that that's what I'm doing. Thanks for watching.
[21:02] Speaker 2: I'll be back next write it with more, but if
[21:03] Speaker 2: you need to get your rito fix in before then.
[21:05] Speaker 2: My livestream was service every Wednesday eight thirty Eastern on
[21:07] Speaker 2: my other channel, The Watering Hole. Thanks for Piper for
[21:09] Speaker 2: being my editor, and special thanks as always to my patrons,
[21:11] Speaker 2: who are the vinyl gloves that get turned into the
[21:13] Speaker 2: hot sauce that is my channel. If you'd like to
[21:16] Speaker 2: risk ingesting something that Nile redmaid, you can join us
[21:18] Speaker 2: on patroon for as little as a dollar per week
[21:20] Speaker 2: over at patreon dot com, slash vice Rhino, or by

[21:23] Speaker 2: can be found at links adviceround dot com, which is
[21:25] Speaker 2: also where you'll find links to my other projects if
[21:27] Speaker 2: for whatever reason you want to send me stuff my
[21:29] Speaker 2: pobox addresses in the description see you next time.
[22:00] Speaker 3: But in space, wouldn't it be a different scenario based
[22:02] Speaker 3: on the fact that you know the space and the
[22:05] Speaker 3: air in the space is much different than the air
[22:08] Speaker 3: we have here. They believe that rocks evolved, that you
[22:12] Speaker 3: had smaller rocks that somehow morphed into larger rocks that
[22:16] Speaker 3: out of his mouth go burning lamps and sparks, the
[22:19] Speaker 3: fire leap out. The dinosaurs they discovered have the dragons
[22:23] Speaker 3: they discovered have chambers in the back of their head.
[22:25] Speaker 3: It's where they can breathe fire. But that's just a
[22:26] Speaker 3: couple things. I mean, if it's about survival of the fittest,
[22:29] Speaker 3: and we evolved from African Americans into other Americans, what
[22:33] Speaker 3: about the African Americans that are still alive today. Well,
[22:36] Speaker 3: I don't see anything wrong with quote mine. I believe
[22:38] Speaker 3: if we study history. You know the Confederates were able
[22:41] Speaker 3: to shoot pterodactyls t rex. They had short, stubby arms,
[22:46] Speaker 3: and apparently now the chickens able to do a handstand
[22:49] Speaker 3: with those arms. Think about this. We have more in
[22:51] Speaker 3: common genetically in cera areas with a gorilla than with
[22:55] Speaker 3: an ape. Yet they say genetically we evolve from apes.
[22:58] Speaker 3: We can tell based on genetics. Honestly, John, I don't
[23:01] Speaker 3: know a ton of technical terms. I'm very simple when
[23:04] Speaker 3: it comes to science. I just enjoy simple science.
