“There is no evidence for the existence of God”
Trent Horn’s new book Answering Atheism has finally been released. Over the next few weeks I’m going to be posting one of his short videos responding to the common claims of Atheists:

Every single point made here has been refuted over and over again. This looks like a book of zombie arguments.
I had to laugh when he placed belief in UFOs on a similar level to believing in a bearded friend in the sky.
He should read the bible more. Jesus’s temptation on the roof of the temple springs to mind. He should then read Occam’s razor, then Hitchins’ razor.
Take a few deep breaths, then accept the fact that someone confidently tells you that something is true does not make it true, regardless of how comforting the fairy tales are.

It would be much more convincing if you gave an example of such a refutation.

Really? I would have thought the Drake Equation would have at least kept you open to the possibility that there was other life out there. I even recall Dawkins suggesting that he could believe that life on earth was seeded by an alien intelligence (although, of course, he couldn’t possibly believe that such an intelligence was God).

I’m not quite sure what you’re getting at here, but I can assure you Trent knows the Bible extremely well.

C’mon… try and keep the the insults a little more veiled….
It also boggles my mind when I’m told that people live a life of faith because it’s comforting. To quote G.K. Chesterton, the Christian ideal has not been tried and found wanting. It has been found difficult; and left untried.
