Revision as of 05:20, August 7, 2016

Conservapedia challenges the atheist Kyle Kulinski to come up with a real argument for atheism given his "best argument" for atheism" is a non-argument.

Kyle Kulinski says the best argument for atheism is:

Where did the God who created all this intricacy and complexity come from? Because by definition that God would would need to be way more complex and way more intricate. Because in order to create all of this complexity, you have to be more complex and more intricate if you you have the ability to create all of this and yourself exist and be super complex and intricate.[1]

Kulinsk's video is directed towards deists. Yet, it is very common for deists to posit that God is eternal.[2][3][4]

And of course, Judaism and Christianity have always declared that God is eternal.

For example, below are some Bible verses declaring that God is eternal:

  • “The eternal God is your refuge, and underneath are the everlasting arms....” (Deuteronomy 33:27).
  • “He [Jesus] entered the Most Holy Place once for all by his own blood, having obtained eternal redemption...who through the eternal Spirit offered himself...” (Hebrews 9:12, 14).
  • “...We are being renewed day by day...So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal” (2 Corinthians 4:16, 18).
  • “Jesus Christ came into the world to save sinners...[that] Christ Jesus might display his unlimited patience as an example for those who would believe on him and receive eternal life. Now to the King eternal, immortal invisible, the only God, be honor and glory for ever and ever. Amen” (1 Timothy 1:15-17).

Universe is not eternal: Theistic implications of the 1st and 2nd laws of thermodynamics

In the articles below, theists point out that the First Law of Thermodynamics and the Second Law of Thermodynamics point to the universe having a divine origin:

Atheism merely offers pseuodoscience in relation to the origin of the universe

See: Atheism and the origin of the universe

Question: Will Kyle Kulinski repair the gaping hole in his atheist bubble?

Now that Kulinski's "best argument for atheism" has been throughly debunked and there is now a gaping hole in his atheist bubble, will he desperately cling to an even weaker "best argument for atheism"?

Alternatively, will Kulinsky bow the knee and admit that atheism is a sham?
