[kvasir]

Just to save you some time, no evidence was presented.

[YAYCONFORMITY]

This is just a poor man's Matt Slick... and Matt Slick is kind of a poor man's Matt Slick.

[casparuskruger]

The presup's motto is "If ever accused of putting forth a circular argument, make a bigger circle.

[MagicDragon]

I'll save you the time... Matt embarrassed Velo... You can sum up the entire debate like this: Velo refused every time to directly answer any question Matt asked... I'm serious, count it out... I stopped counting at 28 times... also, Matt answered every question Velo asked and then Velo accused Matt of not doing so... Velo sounds like an extreme narcissist and most likely a sociopath... There, that's it...

-If spaghetti doesn't exist then the flying spaghetti monster doesn't exist.
-Spaghetti exist
-Therefore the flying spaghetti monster exist.

[TsonAmos]

Matt: Can we agree that there are two possibilities, X and not X?
Tyler: Provisionally, yes.
Matt: What provisions?
Tyler: Let's just move on.

[yowut]

Mr. Vela is all hot air with a endless side of word salad.

[mileswright]

I watched this debate when it came out and a few other times over the years. I'm rewatching it again now with the knowledge that Tyler has in fact deconverted. It's really an interesting look at how people change their minds

“I don’t have enough faith to believe that things just are, but I’ll quite happily believe that a magical being that created everything and cares about who I sleep with just on faith.”

[Vivi]

So a whole ten minutes in and it's nothing but presupposition, strawmen, and word salad. Off to a fantastic start. 🙄

[djchudsteeldevils]

Tyler could definitely convince someone that already believes

[Wraithknight]

Tyler - you've been talking for 16 minutes, and I lost interest after 3. Seriously, who are you targeting this towards...

[ivatio]

Just started watching. Is the christian guy reading a script?

[tothetuneofwaffles]

I can’t believe a whole hour into this debate and Vela can’t agree about X and Not X. 🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️

[philj]

Love how Tyler thinks he has Matt on the ropes. Delusion: exhibit A

[JCW]

Even if I grant 99% of what Tyler said, as soon as he said the Bible doesn't condone slavery, he lost all credibility in my eyes.

[Imrightyourewrong]

If I have children and my goal is to have a loving relationship with them what would be the best way to achieve that goal?

A: Meet them and explain my goal.
B: Not make my existence clear but instead "reveal" my existence by logical arguments not supported by evidence.

[a.d.prayer]

Tyler's argument is one big beautiful word salad.

[booyah]

Tyler: So what you’re saying is...
Matt: NO
