Doubting Thomas And Darwinists | Chris-OK | The Atheist Experience 933

The Atheist Experience 933 for August 30, 2015 with Matt Dillahunty and Jen Peeples.
Caller discusses doubting Thomas in scripture and makes assumptions about people accepting evolution and what he calls Darwinists. The hosts then talk about the evidence for evolution. The discussion bogs down on the peer reviewed science, the caller calls just claims, whereas the hosts point out everyone can replicate the claims and the experiments.
WHAT IS THE ATHEIST EXPERIENCE?
The Atheist Experience is a weekly call-in television show in Austin, Texas geared at a non-atheist audience. The Atheist Experience is produced by the Atheist Community of Austin.
The Atheist Community of Austin is organized as a nonprofit educational corporation to develop and support the atheist community, to provide opportunities for socializing and friendship, to promote secular viewpoints, to encourage positive atheist culture, to defend the first amendment principle of state-church separation, to oppose discrimination against atheists and to work with other organizations in pursuit of common goals.
We define atheism as the lack of belief in gods. This definition also encompasses what most people call agnosticism.

While I’m passionate about science, evolution isn’t relevant to atheism and the hosts aren’t experts. Further, he really just kept repeating him self, he didn’t engage with any of the information, he just dismissed everything and asked what the “proof” was. The world has moved on, we understand evolution at an intimate level and it’s helped propel science and medicine. This man benefits from it, even though he doubts it.

    Chris: I'm Doubting Thomas and I want to see the proof for evolution. Evolutionist: Alright, here's some of the most recent research done on fossils. C: But these are claims, I'm Doubting Thomas, I want to see the actual evidence. E: Ok, here's the methods they used so you can replicate the findings. C: But I don't have the skills to replicate these claims you've made. I'm Doubting Thomas, I want to put my fingers in the holes. E: Well, we could go and look at the fossils, if that helps. C: Sure. E: Here's a piece that's been dated as around 300 million years old. C: Why is it in a glass case where people can't touch it? I'm Doubting Thomas, I want to touch it and find out for myself. E: Surely you understand that this is a fragile piece of prehistory and an untrained person could irrevocably damage it. C: But I'm Doubting Thomas, is your Darwin afraid I'll find something? E: I guess a small inspection could be allowed. Here, touch it but make it quick. C: I tried to find a hole to put my finger in because I'm Doubting Thomas but it crumbled into dust. E: What?! That was a priceless fossil with years of research to be gained from it! C: I'm Doubting Thomas, you can't judge me for trying to find things out and being reasonable, isn't that what your science teaches? Are you against science? E: Oh this is gonna net me so much trouble. C: Guess without evidence your Darwinism is now bunk huh. I could show you my church and the truths we hold. The actual hard truths, none of these fragile cyanseez. E: Can I at least do the same, doubt your claims and find out for my own? C: Don't you fucking dare doubt the Lord!

When you mention they actually have to DO SOME WORK they get angry because they’ve never had to do any work! So they assume that like them, everyone else is just making everything up as they go! When you ask them how they think the device they are using was made by being a “doubting Thomas” they just ignore it because they just see the practical applications of science as technology are just simple toys that were created through magic one day!

    @Tyler B. Atheism is simply a response to an assertion or claim of theism. Atheism is the null hypothesis which asserts that an affirmative proposition must meet a burden of proof before the proposition can be accepted as true. The theist is making an affirmative claim, and with any affirmative claim, the null hypothesis states that the affirmative claim must not be accepted as true until such time as the person making the claim meets his burden of proof with the provision of sufficient evidence.

    It’s interesting, isn’t it, that, even though he doesn’t explicitly admit this, he is dismissing out of hand everything the opponents offer him as “just claims; I can’t see the evidence myself” even when methodologies and replicability literally disprove this argument-yet he expects us to suspend the same level of skepticism against his ultimate argument which is Christianity, and which really is comprised of just claims, with no replicable methodologies.

    That’s not logic, it’s just saying that people who believe in gods have absolutely no way to demonstrate it so they have to rely on ignorance of reality. This isn’t a personal issue. It’s factual. Problem is people who believe in gods do so because they’ve been told to, so they’re too lazy to actually do any fact checking! The caller boiled down to “this is hard for me to understand so I’m going to rely on ignorance and obedience to dogma! Meanwhile if evolution wasn’t real we would have the field of modern genetics. But again people who are proud to say that they’re sheep don’t care about the facts of a matter, just about how they feel. People have said “they don’t care if the world is flat or a sphere” while they demand that everyone believe it without doing any work. People don’t believe in gods because the ones who say we should utterly refuse to even attempt a demonstration of what a “god” is because it’s personal to them. So it’s a caller saying he doesn’t care about what’s true.

    Using the terms “Darwinist” and “Evolitionist” show one thing - you’ve done utterly insufficient reading into the topic you want to discuss. If the caller is going to be this lazy, I’m not sure I’d waste my time on them until they’d lifted a finger beyond just calling in. Saying that, I’d have definitely dropped him by about minute 5 as, by this stage, he’s shown such a blindingly obviously level of dishonesty that he can just take a running jump. He’s just another theist lying for his so-called god. It’s pathetic.

    That’s one thing that drives me crazy is trying to get theists understand that my atheism has absolutely nothing to do with the theory of evolution. I grew up in a very Christian family who made sure that I never learned about evolution in school. I had read the entire bible over and over again by the time I was an adult and it is the Bible itself that caused me to stop believing. From countless obvious contradictions in the Bible, to immorality and slavery in the Old Testament, to every apologist having terrible arguments, one day I realized that not only did I have no good reason to believe the Bible, but I had plenty of reasons not to.
