I see your assumption and understanding of Quranic verses are pathetically lacking. People will be judged for what they do by God, if prophet Mohammed was Allah, how will he be able to judge when he is already passed away? Your accusations don't make sense.

Comments from Athiests are repulsive. They claim to be humanists and for human rights, but defend the Chinese communist secular Athiests who carry out this genocide against innocent Chinese citizens for believing in God. Hypocrisy. Athiests carried out the most horrendous crimes against humanity because of Athiesm, which they can justify since their morality is subjective. Do Mao and Stalin who were Athiests wring a bell? Don't throw stones when your house is made up of glass.

That last line at 1:44:45 by Subboor summarized the whole debate. Subjective definition of morality is objectified via democracy. Alhumdulillah for Islam.

In Islam, God is absolute, eternal, no beginning, no end, timeless, no father, no offspring, no spouse, no co-founder etc. He doesn't share human attributes that defines weakness. E.g. Jesus (God) dying on the Cross or God of Judaism wrestling His own Prophet Jacob (in Jewish Bible) and get defeated.

By Asadullah Ali ( owner of Andalusian Project channel) Atheists often advance the argument that God’s Mercy is canceled out by virtue of eternal Hellfire. However, I’ve always found this objection wanting and more an evidence of the vacuity of those proposing it. How so? Because such an argument seems to redefine the concept of mercy entirely; twisting it into a juvenile trait uncharacteristic of any moral standard. Allow me to explain. Prior to getting into the notion of eternal punishment, let’s discuss what ‘mercy’ actually is. The concept of mercy today - when applied to those who have committed some sort of wrong - has come to be construed as a selfless act of forgiveness towards the wrongdoer, without any necessary reciprocating factor. Meaning, to be defined as ‘merciful’, one is obligated to release a criminal from punishment without any strings attached. But this isn’t mercy. To forgive a criminal who refuses to repent for their crimes is not forgiveness, but stupidity. Without the reciprocity of remorse and guarantee of reform, such “mercy” ultimately becomes a means of supporting criminal behavior and completely invalidates every ideal of justice ever conceived. Thus, the type of mercy that many atheists seem to have in mind is really no different than that of a child’s; one who seeks to evade reproach every time he’s caught with his hands in the cookie jar. In other words, It is an irrational plea for moral agents to sanction immorality. But how can a moral agent complicit and still be considered moral? Is that not a contradiction? But the atheist(s) reading this post may retort that I’ve strawmanned their understanding of mercy. But have I really? Because when examining their reactions to the Islamic version of Hellfire, it seems that I’m right on point. You see, in Islam, people don’t go to Hell for eternity because of one single finite criminal act, nor does God force them to remain in Hell arbitrarily. Rather, the punishment is eternal because the offense is eternally committed. This is stated in the Qur’an itself in numerous places, including the following: If you could but see when they are made to stand before the Fire and will say, “Oh, would that we could be returned [to life on earth] and not deny the signs of our Lord and be among the believers.” But what they concealed before has [now] appeared to them. And even if they were returned, they would return to that which they were forbidden; and indeed, they are liars. (Al-Qur’an, 6:27-28) Here, Allah states clearly that those who are being punished in Hell will never get a chance to leave, because He Knows they’re insincere in their remorse and desire to reform. They are far too arrogant to admit they were wrong in any meaningful way. It shouldn’t be surprising then that the Qur’an repeatedly emphasizes that Hell is for the “arrogant” (4:36-37, 4:137, 40:76, 7:36, 34:31-33, etc.). Thus, because these people refuse to accept God’s Mercy, it cannot be argued that God lacks mercy. It would be fallacious to state otherwise. That said, I expect a subsequent retort from atheists, such that it reveals yet again the vacuity of their objections. No doubt the following argument will be given: “Why doesn’t god just not create people he knows will go to hell? Or why not just make these people cease to exist?” And the answer is simple: because both these options would be a contradiction to God’s attribute of Mercy. By denying people their free will to make the choice to rebel against God for all of eternity - whether by refusing to create them or having them cease to exists - God therefore destroys any potential for Him to give His Mercy eternally. Remember, mercy requires the potential for reciprocity. And if there are no people willing to violate the rules and be given mercy, then such mercy ultimately becomes meaningless. In other words, claims that God “lacks mercy” also become meaningless, because this objection rules out the eternal potential for mercy to be given. In summary, there can be no mercy without justice - and no justice without punishment. But really, is this so hard to grasp? Or are atheists just projecting their own failure to comprehend what a Divine Being should be like? As far as I’m concerned, I don’t want to believe in atheists’ juvenile version of an “ideal god”. I’d much rather prefer to believe in an All-Merciful God where the word ‘mercy’ actually means something.

But just because a being is sentient does not mean it has moral agency. Hence the example with the baby (sentient being) hitting a grown man(sentient being) vs the opposite. He didn’t get unbalanced, he paused and then tried to repeat himself because Subboor failed to understand what his standard for moral agency was.

veganath. It’s not good for anybody... that’s the main feature of Jahanam. And if you don’t want to suffer an eternity there, then be a believer and do some good and you’ll probably spend an eternity in Paradise. “But they who believe and do righteous deeds - those are the companions of Paradise; they will abide therein eternally.” (2:82) It’s a bit unfair to talk about the chance of an eternal suffering when there is also that of eternal pleasure. And being a plant-eater is allowed according to the laws of Islam, as all fruits and vegetables are Tayibat (Lawful).

@@jotesoft because Subboor Ahmad missed alot of his points and was arguing the same thing over and over again. The first point that religious persons are happier. Yes they are, but the premise is, that you really believe in god and the afterlive etc. Therfor when you don't believe in it you won't be happier by just pretending. It's a pretty awkward idea to think that this would work. It's like saying yeah, people who think they will get superpowers are more happy, so why does not everybody believe they get superpowers. And I'm sorry, but the worst thing was the point with the second evolutionary trajectory. When the definition of pleasure is"what is wanted when experienced" than there can't be sentience without pleasure or suffering as an opposite. And that has nothing to do with our non-understanding of the second trajectory but with the fundamental idea of decision making. For something to have a moral meaning there have to be options which can be chosen. And if pleasure derives from the "wanted" option there is by definition in every evolutionary trajectory pleasure.Otherwise there would be no evolution because no choices would have been made. And when different things lead to that pleasure the same moral code can be used, but leads to different actions that are morally "good" or "bad". And the amounts of times Subboor Ahmad repeated the same question just showed that he didn't understand the idea of that. And I have to admit I found it condescending towards Alex that he said he'd make the question "easier" for him, while he was the one not understanding the concept of pleasure that Alex presented. So yes, I think Alex won as well.

This is true even within Islam though. Some believe it is morally wrong to kill apostates, while others support it. Some Jihadists believe that murdering non-believers is 'good' while other muslims believe that it is morally abhorrent. Different muslims derive pain and pleasure from different things, and therefore use subjective interpretations of the Quran / subjective morality to define what is good and bad for themselves.

Sadiq Mohammad The fact that we can have pleasure from harming others doesn’t “unsubstantiate pleasure and pain being foundations for morality”. The point is that we (as sentient beings) intrinsically want to minimise are own suffering. From this follows that the best way to reduce suffering is to not cause suffering to other people.

He’s basing it off of a veiled view of ethics. So for instance, we don’t say “what will maximize MY pleasure and minimize MY pain.” Instead we ask “what will maximize pleasure OVERALL and minimize pain OVERALL throughout the whole system.” For instance, if I derived pleasure from killing someone, it would still be less than the pain it caused them. Therefore, when viewing the system as a whole, pain was added to the system we consider that bad. This is derived from utilitarianism, I’d recommend you start with Mills and Bentham to learn more.

Also I dont get why you athiests love to preach against the belief in god when it's a "beneficial lie" in your perspective just like human rights. You dont see athiests preaching against human rights. Now religion is actually beneficial to society unlike athiesm, which takes away purpose, hope, justice, right and wrong, selflessness, appreciation of design. So why do you lot have a double standard when it comes to God? Aren't human rights just as made up as god in your belief? ohhh damn!! You got me! I'm gonna stop believing in this fairytale now, bc since you called it a fairytale, it must be a fairytale!!!! Life has no purpose, I'm not born for any reason other than to reproduce and survive, and if I see no point in that, then I must be a mutation, bc of my nihilistic belief, that life really is pointless. I think I'll stay true to my belief and k¡II myself, unlike most athiests. You really convinced me!! Why should I believe in god?its not like I have reason to right???? Clearly selflessness is just an illusion, me wanting to help a dying man on the side of the street is misplaced compassion, it'd be ridiculous and of no benefit for me, and that compassion must come from a hidden selfishness inside of me, being used wrong bc in this case I wont gain anything by helping this person who has nothing to offer. Compassion, selflessness doesnt actually exist. Purpose doesnt exist, design doesnt exist, right and wrongs dont actually exist, GOD DOESN'T EXIST!!!!!!! BS aside. What you call a fairytale is the entire history of humanity. Atheism has barely any part in human past, and you can't prove otherwise. You're the one living a made up story FILLED with plot holes and inconsistencies. I believe in God bc I believe humans do have a purpose, we do have an understanding that right and wrongs exist, we appreciate design of the universe, we understand compassion and selflessness which doesn't come from selfishness as darwinians would have you believe. I believe the universe doesnt have an infinite past. I believe whatever is infinte must be the necessary cause (it has nothing that caused it to be, but always was) I believe that necessary cause must be unchanging, and I believe that necessary cause that is unchanging and infinite must have intention, for the dominos to fall (cause and effect). What would be absurd is to deny things you believe in. I'm not gonna deny human rights, or the creator, and in not gonna deny logic by believing there was this "point" that was changing for infinity or no time at all, until suddenly it exploded just bc!!! and expanded into what is the universe now. I believe whatever it was, whether it was a point, that exploded and expanded into the universe as it is, must have been created, bc something that changes cannot have an infinte past. I will not deny logic, and I will not deny purpose, selflessness behaviours that clearly exist in the world, I wont deny rights and I wont deny things that are wrong from being wrong no matter what the majority believes, whether it be r*pe, or k!IIing humans based on their skin colour or accepting g@¥ rights. These will be wrong no matter what the majority believe in. Goodbye.

What I noticed is that there is a fundamental problem with Alex's argument that human rights are objective by the example given about a town who believes blue to be the best color without justification. The only thing Alex asserts that makes the color blue to be objectively the best in the town is that the majority deems it so. So when an outsider or an oddball comes and argues that it is rather yellow that is truly best, than the only way the town can defend it's stance is that because enough people collectively believe in it, than it must be objective. This is still subjectivity. All he's done is extend that from micro individual subjectivity to macro subjectivity. Just because a large number of people believe in it, it does not mean it is morally objective. Imposing the will of the majority may lead to a problem indicated by John Stuart mill known as the tyranny of majority. It also does not not consider human nature. When it comes to complex decisions, humans may differ varyingly with a myriad of differing opinions. People do not always collectively agree upon certain actions. In our societies in the west today we merely adopted a culture of what secularism deemed as morally wrong and right. Although most don't claim it to be objective, those who oppose this system are ostracised, socially shunned or even physically chastised. Furthermore living in a hedonistic and individualistic society, Alex has assumed many collectivist human traits which to an extent oppose a liberalistic mindset.

Apparently, Subboor's explanation went over Alex's head. Alex's justification for human rights is not due to the intrinsic reality of the concept, but its utilitarianism for maximizing pleasure which is supposedly objectively measurable. The fact that the variable can change from human rights into a belief in God that also maximizes pleasure is exactly the same type of justification, which would be an incoherent position for an atheists to hold because it's a mutually exclusive belief with respect to their worldview. It doesn't matter whether either is intrinsically true because that was never the reason for Alex's justification. But he's also waffling here because he actually does believe human rights exist in the sense that there is some intrinsic truth to the concept otherwise he wouldn't believe it exists in the first place, which he doesn't believe exists for the concept of God. So he's towing the line between it being a useful concept and being true just to effectively delude himself into believing that there is a basis to his belief, which is the entire point of the lack of justification.

no, alex fully acknowledges that human rights are not an objective truth. humans want to do what they think gives them the most pleasure and causes as little suffering as possible. and thats is fact about human nature. you cant want to do something that causes you to suffer, unless that suffering is pleasure for you, which then means it isnt suffering anymore. there is nothing wrong about saying that its objectively true that humans want to have as little suffering as possible. so you simply use that to make laws. the reason you cant replace human rights with god is because human rights would be based on a concept that exists objectively in humans, which is maximization of pleasure. if you were to replace it with god and not believe in god, then its literally the same as replacing it with a stone. human rights are based on a concept which is intrinsically true within human nature. religion in this case would be literally something made up (if you were to not believe it like a lot of people do and that was also part of the argument), and this does matter because then you could also say you made up a stone with texts on it which say that rape is awesome and slaughter is celebrated but its totally fine to believe in it because you say so. it doesnt work that way with human rights because humans wanting to maximize pleasure is a fact, which human rights would be based on. its simply a natural fact in this context and not comparable with believing in god since that wouldnt be.

@Xe Zey Yeah I know. He begrudgingly admits that human rights can't be morally justified because it's simply a useful construct that when enforced would allegedly maximize human pleasure, or more generically, maximize “the common good". His justification for its existence is the latter. But, so what? Moral nihilism asserts that objective standards of morality don't exist in Reality, i.e., that morality isn't ontological. So then what is a human right if it doesn't at least implicitly enforce a moral ought as the term implies? It loses all its meaning. He's incoherent.

@@ScarredRomeo i dont see the problem. lets say its nihilistic. that doesnt mean we shouldnt have those laws. theyd still be useful because we as humans want to maximize pleasure. whether theres a point to us wanting to have maximum pleasure is irrelevant to whether we want to live with laws that allow for maximizing pleasure. we simply want to because we want to. we wouldnt need objective morals to justify that we objectively want to live with maximized pleasure.

​@@TimeattackGD I think many people miss the point. This isn't a question about having laws. It's a question of whether human rights *in the common sense of the term* can be justified from an atheistic worldview. That some society can have such and such laws that exist to enforce the rights of some humans so that their pleasure is maximized is not what is meant by the term. It is a universal that presupposes something intrinsic to the human condition. Alex alleges that some maximization of human pleasure (whatever that entails) is sufficient to determine human rights. He underlies this with the notion that every human being seeks pleasure, which is effectively a first principle of Natural Law ethics, though it is probably put more accurately as, every human being seeks what it believes to be good for itself, and seeks to avoid what it believes to be evil for itself. But the latter is subjective, and only when that good or evil can be classified as objective can anything like *human* moral agency and *human* rights be justified. If he believes that moral agency is subjective, then he is being incoherent when talking about *human* rights.

chris chow yes, look up the definition. A theist believes in a God or multiple of ANY form. Which is the complete opposite of an atheist. The question is not about quantity or form of God here. That comes afterwards. The main difference between theism and atheism is belief and disbelief, where majority of the world do believe in a higher power. Therefore, based on your principle of “majority prevails” you should believe in a God to be a practicing “atheist”.

I don't think Alex ever went to a non western country. He just assumes that a person living in India or Saudi Arabia weather muslim or non muslim would think that pain and pleasure is the criteria by which we determine what is moral. Which simply isn't true. Morality where I live in for people of any religion or non religion is simply self evident. Even an atheist here would say homosexuality is objectively wrong just as atheists in the UK think incest (with contraceptions) is wrong. It has nothing to do with pain or pleasure. Now what right does he have to impose his worldview of deriving morality from pain and pleasure to the rest of the world to many parts of which this idea is simply alien! This is exactly what the colonizers did 300 years ago. Why do we have to conform to your paradigm of morality? Why can't the opposite happen? Also about humans in a different possible world having no pain receptors, I think Alex understood what Subboor was saying but he just pretended not to. It's just like humans trying to imagine what a 5th dimension would look like. Just because we cannot conceive it in our minds that doesn't mean it is not possible. It's called the ego centric predicament. Imagine trying to describe what the experience of color is to a born blind. Similarly, just because we cannot imagine us with a different sense(?) other that pain or pleasure that doesn't mean it is impossible. Hey, if darwinian evolution is true, then it came up with our sense of pain and pleasure, why would something different not be possible? They would just have a different way to be sentient or whatever word they come up with to describe their experience. If you time travelled to before the emergence of life, you wouldn't be able to conceive any sense of pain or pleasure then either.

Jonatan D You cannot compare shiism and sunnism when it comes to athiesm vs. islam vs. christianity and etc. it is thoroughly *proven* that shiism essentially split from *mainstream* Islam due to initially the difference in *political* views as to who should have been the rightful successor to the caliphate. Secondly, this theological difference between both strands did not emerge until almost 200-500 years after the coming of Islam, where followers of shiism began to interject completely *alien* beliefs and practices, and making their own innovations to *mainstream* islam. Other than that essentially 80-90% of the Islamic adherents follow mainstream islam, with all these various groups being peppered left and right in small numbers, but no *evidence* of their existence can be found in the original texts. Out of the remaining mainstream Islam, there are varying schools of thought based on *law* . Which is completely and absolutely fine as opposed to theological difference. Because laws can be interpreted differently based on one’s knowledge and intuition, except for issues over which the Quran and hadiths are explicit. What matters is that the *theology is the same*

59:00 I disagree with Alex's logic about rape in Evo2. He said rape would only be accepted if everyone, including the victim, felt it was okay, and hence it wouldn't be rape anymore. Here he has moved goalposts. Question is about rape ONLY, not consensual sex. And his imagined scenario where even the victim wants the sex isn't rape to even start with. So he has not addressed the question at all. He should have tackled a rape situation in Evo2 that can still exist even if the people considering the pleasure/pain didn't feel any worse off for raping. and that would be for example if the victim was a different species.

Rape means non-consensual sex. Non-consensual means at least 1 party did not *want* to have sex. If there is evo2 where no one feels worse off from being raped then why would they not consent?

Morals are subjective. If you believe rape is wrong then that just subjective opinion (and most people agree with this opinion) This is not like 1+1 = 2. It is not something can be measured. Morals are created by societies over time Also, rape is not always considered to be wrong by all societies in all circumstances. In wars, men most of time forcefuly took enemies women as sex salve or wives without their consent . Even muslims did that in wars, where they took the females of infidels they conquered as wives or slaves. In many ancient societies, parent even choose the wives or and husbands for the kids without consent. The children have to agree (specially if she female) without any objection.

@@killermoon635 You can make a pretty strong argument why women in that case are justified of being forced to be slaves for the man and compelled to do sex with the man that otherwise used to be hostile to her nation, because she choose a man as a life partner that tried to kill that man that now took her as slave, she also implicitly at least supported the killing of such a man, so as a "repairation" for such wrongdoing, shes justified to become a slave of such a man.

"They follow but a guess and that which they themselves desire, whereas there has surely come to them the Guidance from their Lord!" ~ Surah Najm This whole debate is summarised by this verse... All Alex did was presented assumptions, not a single proof was presented... Too much pseudoscience for my liking... he needs to realize that Science without proof is not Science... Also, I found tons of contradictions in his arguments... E.G He said at 57:00-59:00 "Anything can't be placed in it" to basically maximize pleasure, the concept of God can't be thrown in but I have a question for him what about Gay people? If their sexual activities give rise to new diseases? and has the highest number of cases for STDs will it be included in the list of things which maximize pleasure??? He kinda answered it by saying that people who don't believe in 'truth', 'truth' being the Science or proof in this case, will do whatever they want anyway... So what does it say about our current society? Are we people who value the 'truth'? Given what I stated above is reality. What we witness is the total opposite... On human exceptionalism, offering the slightest bit of superiority to humans means you don't really believe we are animals after all... What's so special about our evolution? Given plants, animals are also sentient beings and have the ability to express the pain in their own ways? Also, it's Hypocritical if you are going to say that yeah this bit applies to us but not this bit, It's a complete package you can't pick and choose. Either we are special or we are not! There is no in-between... At the end what he basically said is mob rule is the 'objective truth'... People who commit suicide actually think they will find pleasure in it but according to our knowledge, it isn't the case... Death is the most painful experience the human body suffers from, Survival of the fittest and all that other jargon... What he said is if enough people find suicide to be acceptable, it would be morally alright to accept suicide and do nothing about it and by saying that he throws out evolution right outta the window and all this pleasure BS collapses on its head... I'm gonna edit my comment later on as I have more to say... But this debate went nowhere... Peace!

​@@lubu2960 Does destroying your environment for your own survival counts as intelligence? Also, we being 'more' can be argued all day long. E.G humans are the only living creatures on earth which commit suicide, what does that have to say about our so-called 'Intelligence'. It also goes against the very theory of evolution, why would an organism want to kill itself??? It sounds to me we are dumber than the most animals out there... As I said before either you say humans are unique or they aren't, you can't pick and choose bits from a human being unique and then choose some bits from humans not being unique...

Don't say what you do not know to be true. That is one big difference between theists and atheists. The first group claim to know the absolute truth about life and the universe while the second are trying to search for it using evidence and basing their opinions as the evidence changes.

Not really, as Alex stated he's not making laws he's just stating something that we have scientific evidence for which is animals can feel pleasure and pain and therefore they have a moral worth, what is wrong with that? Feeling pleasure and pain doesn't imply moral agency however to have moral agency one does need to feel pleasure and pain, it's very common to just have the former and not the latter.

Moral exceptionalism is a given. A thing that thinks it has morals thinks it has the right morals whether it is an atheist, a hindu, a shark, a dentist or a star. The evidence for this is that judgements about the rightness of morals is itself a moral judgement. So something that thought its morals were wrong could only do so based on its morals and that's a contradiction. The kicker here a consistent set of moral values maybe be impossible in practice. And what good are morals if they aren't practiced?

@Planck M. I never claimed that my argument justifies Alex's claim that animals don't have moral agency. Good and evil, right and wrong are concepts of human minds. They aren't objective. If they were objective then there would be some reliable method we could agree on for deciding ethical questions that wasn't dependent on the person applying the method. I am open to counter arguments, not mere assertions, but reasoned arguments based on clear premises. So if you have one for objective morality I'd like to hear what it is.

Because God existing would have tangible implications and change the foundations of the entire scientific model. It would be different if people spoke of God in the same way they spoke about human rights (most people don't speak about rights in a way that have universal implications), then it really wouldn't matter, but it is spoken about it in a different category. There are people who do think about religion in that way (as in it's nice to believe in), but others use it far more literally and want to change scientific bodies of work.

The moral agency for animals argument. I loved it. And yes animals do have moral agency.

I believe what Subboor was attempting to convey to Alex was that Pleasure and Suffering are not universal or laws of nature in such categorization as Gravity or Time. Pleasure and Suffering were contrived by sentience, Pleasure and Suffering necessitates sentience, but sentience does not necessitate Pleasure and Suffering. Alex was attempting to utilize the incomprehensible to substantiate his beliefs in regards to maximizing pleasure and minimizing suffering i.e. propel a erroneous principle that can not substantiate his premise.

I am referring too if the worlds species or simply humans had evolved in a contrasting mode, the feeling of pleasure and suffering might not even exist; something can be aware of its existence and have emotions i.e. sentience but that does not mean pleasure and suffering are always going to be apart of that sensational and emotional spectrum. Edit: There are many living species that do not experience pleasure or suffering, do your research.

How many tests has mother earth done to know that air comes under her tail and blocks the bird from flying further and if the tail turns the bird can turn right or left so how many tests are done for mother earth to evolve something that worked perfectly ?? Can we see mother nature practising these tests in our lifetimes ? No...Whats the intelligence behind all this ?? We just know how this ability of flying works since what 200 years ago ?? and even that idea of flying we stole from God XD..we are creating something from something that God already created for us..and still 2020 we know nothing with all our quantum computers and intelligence together we havent even been on the bottom of the sea on our own planet we cant even fight a corona virus people run like chicken all over..we are limited beings trying to play God.
