“Wait my viewpoint is being challenged a bit too much, let me talk to don again”

[KarlBunker]

"I only want to talk to the guy who has less experience in dealing with fools like me." Chicken much? 🐓

[lassebongo]

Ten years later: Seth, are you embarrassed by this call?

[Beacon]

Apologists continually fail to understand that religion is not the source for morality.

[AvaEFF]

These people terrify me. They are openly admitting to having no empathy.

[ARoll]

This dude really thought he had a gotcha, and made himself look idiotic

[roseredthorns]

My moral standards are based on compassion and consent and better living for as many humans and non-humans as possible, it's not that hard

[ketorising]

This is a great illustration of why I don’t get into discussions with theists. The dishonesty is numbing.

[christiangeiselmann]

I start to find people who argue that they need God to behave ethically (meaning e.g.: not kill or enslave others) pretty dangerous.

[sfprivateer]

Lady teacher: Seth, how much is 3 x 4?

Seth : Umm... I wanna talk to Don!

[heidihaw]

Omg he went back to wanting to talk to Don at the end. That’s so funny 😂 😂

[Childfree]

Since Seth has no problem with slavery, let him volunteer to become a slave under those same conditions. But somehow, I don't think he will. 🤔

[perks]

The biggest question of all is why do these idiot callers feel the need to try and defend slavery?

[joshsheridan]

My dog is not a pet, she's a valued member of my family.

[tekbarrier]

Kind of weird that he talks about how he can't just outlaw brussels sprouts because he finds them disgusting, yet in the Bible, God prohibits people from eating certain animals because they are supposedly disgusting

[starfishsystems]

Secular morality is somehow a Bad Thing? But that's where we developed concepts like democracy, gender equality, racial equality...

We didn't get those from religion. Religion teaches uncritical obedience. How is that moral in any way?

[geraldammons]

Wow. I hope this caller does not ever hold me responsible for anything. He cannot distinguish good from bad.

[Ghalaghor_McAllistor]

Every theist who tries to defend slavery always sees themself as the slave owner which is a very moral thing to do, just like genocide is okay when a god tells you to genocide according to the bible.

[AndrewWilsonStooshie]

What a shifty character. He only wanted to speak to Don because he assumed Don was less experienced at argument.

[theotakux]

I never actually 'facepalm' in reality, but I genuinely did when the guy said 'more evolved'.
