I’ve noticed it a lot from these “rational” channels. They are always trying to label everything a logical fallacy, and to ridiculous results sometimes. I’ve seen RR call someone using the word “want” as an appeal to emotion when he was simply saying “we don’t want an infinite regress.” And that’s just one example of many ridiculous things that come out when you are too eager to label things as fallacies. In reality you should apply the principle of charity, if there is a formal logical fallacy then those are easier to call out. But often with informal fallacies they are so eager to call them out that they get the fallacy wrong, like the appeal to emotion example above. Calling out every possible fallacy you see, even when it’s not there, does not make you more rational.

As a former progressive and atheist for pretty much my entire life, I think the problem is that people on that side really think it's just hatred for gay people. They have never wrestled with the genuine arguments against homosexuality because you never hear it in the culture. All you hear is, "they are hateful" so if that's all you hear you're going to think it's true. You can be against homosexuality but also think that they should be respected as human beings. You don't have to hate somebody to disagree with their lifestyle. We have many sexual desires that society demands that you fight against, and not indulge them. No sex with kids, family, someone not your wife, your friends mother or sister, someone who is in a marriage even if you are single, animals. It doesn't matter if you have these strong desires and both people consent to the encounter, it is still wrong and society rightfully demands that you not give into those desires. Christians add homosexuality into that camp. There may be a strong desire, but it is a desire that you should not give into no matter how strong the desire is and no matter if there is consent between the parties. It is still wrong. It is disordered. And that's not a hateful position to hold. Stephen Woodford really proving GK Chesteron point that when you stop believing in God you will believe in anything. It's not rational to believe in God but it is rational to believe that a man become a woman just by thinking it lol.

He didn't 'create' homosexuals, just as he didn't 'create' the desire for Polygamy among many men. We must first establish that Evil isn't substantial, it's unsubstantial. Just as Darkness is not itself a substance, but instead the absence of light, evil is not something diametrically opposed to Good, but merely its absence. This is why we call it 'sin', denoting from a Archery term which means missing the mark. God made man perfectly in the image of God with no fault, with no potential for evil. Our nature was perfect, whereby Adam and Eve in the garden knew no shame for their nakedness and dwelt with God. But Goodness is only Good with the possibility of choice. This God gave Adam and Eve the choice of the Fruit of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. To choose this fruit, to choose evil, is to choose the absence of Good, in all senses. This is what Christians call the fall. The fall ontological stripped us of the full goodness of our nature, disposing us to debilitate towards the virtuous choice, which opens us to the error of evil. As a result of this corruption of nature, our faculties are disordered, each way unique to us. One struggles with Gluttony. One struggles with Pride. And one struggles in Lust towards the opposite sex. This imperfection of human nature, caused by our forefathers giving up of the blessed goodness of God, causes homosexuality. But God, knowing evil is evil, came to us in the Incarnation of Christ. He took upon flesh to raise it back up to what it once was: fellowship with God. Not only this, he raises it higher in utterly likeness to him, not merely in our nature but supernaturally. This is the Christian mystery. Christ came to solve to right the wrong of our First Father Adam, himself being the New Adam. He tramples down the wage of sin, that is death, with the Cross and Resurrection. He frees us by paying our debt and binding the debt keeper, Satan.

​@@joshuataylor3550 Peace good sir. The better questions to ask are why we have concupiscence and why we have free will. We have the tendency to sin because of the chronicle in Genesis 3. But that's not the be all end all. Adam and Eve freely chose to grab the fruit, prior to its ripe, appropriate time. They grasped at something that was going to be theirs, but it was not given just yet. After their banishment from Paradise, they freely chose God and continued to work out their eventual salvation, awaiting the day of Christ. We even recite on Pascha the Happy Falls of our Patriarch and Matriarch. It was from evil, imperfect goods and despicable things, by definition, that the Greater and Greatest good took place. Paradise was lost with a tree, gained with a Tree (the Cross). Now, similarly to Adam and Eve, one who sins, chooses something out of the right time and the right way. Yet, we can then freely repent and start fresh anew. We can await the Blessed Hope, and work with God to allow Salvation to redeem us fully. God, Love Himself, Goodness Himself, permits us free will that we may not be simply forced against our will to be with Him. It's for that very reason we can, though Lord forbid it, we choose our own damnation, eternal separation from God in Hell. Whether or not same sex attraction is from birth or by choice, we have the ability to access God's Grace, to make that free will choice to not simply seize on an imperfect fruit, out of season, to use an imperfect, inappropriate method and confiscate a treasure that pales in comparison to Treasure greater than we are focused on.

Sirach 42:14 "A man's wickedness is better than a woman's goodness; women bring shame and disgrace." Saint Epiphanius “Women are unstable, prone to error, and mean-spirited.” Panarion (also known as, Against Heresies) 79.1.6 Saint John Chrystosom “The woman taught once, and ruined all. On this account therefore he says, let her not teach. But what is it to other women, that she suffered this? It certainly concerns them; for the sex is weak and fickle, and he is speaking of the sex collectively.” Homily 9 on First Timothy “Man was first formed, and elsewhere he shows their superiority.” Homily 9 on First Timothy “God maintained the order of each sex by dividing the business of life into two parts, and assigned the more necessary and beneficial aspects to the man and the less important, inferior matter to the woman.” The Kind of Women who ought to be taken as Wives “Hearken about the women of old; they were great characters, great women and admirable; such were Sarah, Rebekah, Rachel, Deborah, and Hannah; and such there were also in the days of Christ. Yet did they in no case outstrip the men, but occupied the second rank.” Homily 13 on Ephesians (Ephesians 4:24) Saint Augustine “I don’t see what sort of help woman was created to provide man with, if one excludes procreation. If woman is not given to man for help in bearing children, for what help could she be? To till the earth together? If help were needed for that, man would have been a better help for man. The same goes for comfort in solitude. How much more pleasure is it for life and conversation when two friends live together than when a man and a woman cohabitate?” De Genesi ad literam (The Literal Meaning of Genesis) 9.5.9 “… woman was given to man, woman who was of small intelligence and who perhaps still lives more in accordance with the promptings of the inferior flesh than by superior reason. Is this why the apostle Paul does not attribute the image of God to her?” De Genesi ad literam Book 11.42 “… the woman together with her own husband is the image of God, so that that whole substance may be one image; but when she is referred separately to her quality of help-meet, which regards the woman herself alone, then she is not the image of God; but as regards the man alone, he is the image of God as fully and completely as when the woman too is joined with him in one.” Letter to Laetus (Letter 243.10) Saint Thomas Aquinas “But woman is naturally of less strength and dignity than man …” Summa Theologica, Volume 1, Question 92, Article 1, Objection 2. (Read it here.) “As regards the individual nature, woman is defective and misbegotten, for the active force in the male seed tends to the production of a perfect likeness in the masculine sex; while the production of woman comes from a defect in the active force or from some material indisposition, or even from some external influence. Such as that of a south wind, which is moist, as the Philosopher observes” (On the Generation of Animals 4.2). ”

RR doesn’t understand the nuances in Catholic doctrine between Just Title sl-v3ry, and ch-ttel. The former has many restrictions, and can be justified by certain circumstances, whereas the latter cannot be justified ever. Today, both would be immoral, bc the circumstances for justifying it are no longer applicable. As for the Old Testament, whereas it included some elements of the chatt3l version, we know that God permitted some evil actions like div0rc3, in the OT, to avoid greater evils. The reason why the Apostles didn’t mention it in the New Testament (but it is mentioned in the Tradition of the Church), is bc they were not primarily concerned with it. It would have put a bigger target on the early Christians’ backs. It was common in the Roman system, so instead of saying to stage some type of rev0lt, they said to act good, do witness to the Gospel, and in Christ there is no sl-v3 or free. It was eventually fizzled out of Rome after Christianity became legal, and in the Middle Ages ot was replaced mostly by serfdom, until the Age of Exploration, where the Popes concurrently condemned it.

Atheism has a single, negative proposition. All you can really do with a negative proposition is attack people who support the positive. And that can be a perfectly fine thing to do, there are plenty of bad cults out there that deserve to be attack. (Though I suspect someone like Mike Winger is more inclined to risk their ire than most atheist commentators, who prefer less litigious targets.) The structure of a belief system tends to shape the emotional drive behind it. Atheists can be just as positive about the world as anyone else, but they can never tie it back to "god doesn't exist." Maybe an atheist wants to promote science, but no science or math communicator would find it helpful to periodically remind their audience that god doesn't exist. It doesn't help you promote reason or rationality; your single axiom is only relevant in debates on whether God exists and doesn't even help settle those. It doesn't help you promote any secular moral values because the lack of a singular moral canon is a problem. You can't so much as do an atheist food channel because your burger doesn't taste any better when god doesn't exist. And then Stephen has to support #currentThing politics in his atheism, because while atheism has no positive claims to advocate, political movements always do. The ideologues bring a positive emotional message, thus dominating the discussion, and politics ruins everything.

I don’t understand how atheist believes people can “be born in the wrong body”. That’s a very religious concept.

Whether anyone likes it or not, the concept of a soul being the seat of someone's being is a pervasive element of western society. Just because imagery uses an idea does not mean the user of said imagery believes in the idea. We do this all the time when we say feelings come from the heart. This is obviously not the case in reality, but we do it because of cultural context and shared history.

We know that upon conception, the fetus is living, human, and a whole organism. But is it a person? What makes something a person? Things like consciousness or brain function can be found in animals, yet they are not persons. Is it rational thought? This is what separates human thought from animals’. However, an infant does not have rational thought yet. Therefore, anyone arguing that a fetus isn’t a person would also be arguing that an infant isn’t a person. Most philosophers agree. And that is absolutely an abhorrent stance to take. I would say that a person is an individual member of a rational kind. A human being would have a rational soul, and therefore, it would be wrong to k-ll them from conception to natural death, with few exceptions such as self defense. The violinist argument is equally bad. The baby has a body too. It only works in cases of r-p-, where the woman doesn’t choose to do an act, which has the primary end of procreation. However, even then, there’s a difference between ordinary and extraordinary care, which would completely debunk the whole point made. If you say that leaving an infant in a field to d-e is wrong, even if the woman didn’t want the b-by, then it’s also therefore wrong to have an abo-on. In cases of the life of the mother, since it is evil to do a wrong to produce a good, direct would be considered wrong, whereas indirect would be fine. The best argument is probably the self defense argument. However, the problem again would be that self defense isn’t supposed to be direct; and indirect instead.

The smugness and self-righteous superiority of these Reddit atheist types always annoys me way more than their arguments ever could.

The word "homophobia" was problematic from the very beginning. First, it uses the suffix "phobia" which means "fear of", so that anyone hearing the word for the first time would naturally assume that it means the fear of something. But most people who use the word "homophobia" aren't referring to fear, but rather to hatred (or at least distaste or prejudice) -- even though in many cases, there is no hatred on display at all. I've always considered it to be a propagandistic word that's so problematic as to be basically meaningless.

@jimbarino2

Of course its propanda, the phobia suffix is used to imply that whoever you are applying it to is not against somehing for any rational reason, but because they are irrationally afraid of it. It is a way to shut down debate before it can start, sort of a "Have you stopped beating your wife?" question. BTW, the word irritates me grammactically, as well. Homo is from the greek work for "same" - "homossexual" means "same sex". So "homophobia" would mean "fear of the same", or fear of people like oneself. It makes no sense.

Agreed for the most part, but you want to be careful saying plainly "Women do not have penises". They can and will bring up so-called "intersex" conditions in which some biological females are in fact born with partially or non-functioning penises, to rebut that. Naturally, that wouldn't justify their own worldview (that someone can be a woman just by *identifying* as one), but it would effectively refute this particular claim of yours. I usually define "woman" as an "adult human female" when they challenge me in turn, with "female" being someone whose body naturally developed largely toward the function of bearing children. This would include those who due to aging, defects, etc. cannot fulfill that role entirely but who nevertheless developed largely toward the function.

Yes. Intersex is an interesting case, because unlike the trans identity/gender stuff, this actually deals in biology. And then the question becomes are there really two sexes or not?

The atheists that are woke would claim they are seperate sexes however. I think 2 sexes only makes more sense.

Thank you, Trent Horn, for teaching the same Truth that the Church has always taught. I am very sorry that Steven Woodford attacked you, and that he was so smugly confident as he recited falsehoods about Catholic teachings. You did a fine job rebutting him, without calling him names -- oh, no, I take that back -- you did call him an "apologist." God bless you and yours.

Guys, remember... just because someone has a cool English accent, doesn't mean they are smart or honest. Case in point.

It’s a pretty low tier English accent, as far as English accents go tbh

Ironic that he talks about freedom when he's from the UK.

At least they're not trying to imprison political opponents in order to manipulate elections.

Liked watching Stephen thru the years. He's intelligent, sincere & dedicated, albeit wrong. He, Alex O'Connor & Drew (GMS) are my favorite yt atheist apologists because they're sincerely examining truth using reason & logic. Sometimes their presuppositions trip up their logic as does their passion in defense of their core values, but they're using the same tools from the same toolkit as we all do. It's just that they're using a hammer to remove a screw. Catholics use a screwdriver. Welcome back, Trent. Missed you. You're always in my morning prayers. 🌹🙏

Problem with him using a hammer is the screw is already driven into the wood, dude couldn't even keep up with the Pope's releases on blessings.

He's not sincere.... watch his discussion with Carl Benjamin about British politics.

I cannot imagine thinking that RR is sincere. Maybe you mean sincerely biased.

The new set. The editing , gangster Pope.... chefs kiss

You see me.

Good to see you back Trent. Your studio looks great!

I really enjoy the channel glow-up, and I think it was the right move. Saying that, I am going to miss the simplicity of the previous images and photos, some had a level of authenticity and humility that felt like fresh air. I'm sure this next stage will also be spectacular! And more so because the content never fails to deliver :) 🎉

It's important to be charitable i reccomend you watching Jordan B Cooper video on name calling and the culture war.

@@EnglishLock My remark is not uncharitable. Its an old fable, look it up. The lion, tiger and donkey.

These are exactly the rebuttals I was thinking of when watching RR's video. His whole skit either doesn't apply, or if it does he concedes something he would never concede if we agreed. By his logic, if we stop "being homophobic/transphobic" he'll have to stop "being christphobic" and believe Christ is the risen Lord. This is obviously silly and of course he would think so as well but its weird how they seem to make exceptions to logic when it comes to LGBT issues and feelings are involved.

Excellent! Been eagerly awaiting new content.

Holy cow, great lighting and set!!

Good work Trent. The dichotomy between you two is striking and you did a very good job at showing all of the venom and bias oozing through his facade. Also, the camera and set look amazing!

Oh no not bigotry, destroyet of worlds.

Trent, the quality of this video is amazing! Keep up the good work!

The video quality looks great Mr. Horn!

One side cares more about what they are called that the other side.

Funny how Steven tries to school Trent on what the Catholic church teaches, LOL!

Great Video again Trent! Also, love the new setup!

The studio is looking beautiful ❤. May God bless and keep this channel
