Matt Dillahunty vs Sye Ten Bruggencate

[Disagreeable]

A classic. The guy just assumes God and attacks atheism. The whole debate is hysterical however.

I have seldom seen a more one sided debate, because Sye wasn't debating, not only was he not debating, he emphatically said he can't be wrong, it's hard to imagine a more ego driven closed mind. He seemed genuinely baffled at any notion of objectivity or doubt MD expressed, even deeply annoyed by it. Again and again expressing everything in absolute terms.

When did the jesus fish become a shark?

You mean when did the symbol of a vulva, ichthys, turned into jesus fish?

It didn’t. The two stylized fish had completely different origins.

Nope, look at the xtians lap top.

Sye Ten is a presuppositionalist. Logic doesn't apply.

I don't know who either of these guys are. Not sure it matters to why I don't believe.

I saw Matt at a meeting for Seth Andrew's 300th podcast episode.  He was there with Aron Ra and some woman I wasn't impressed with.  Matt was religious growing up and considered becoming a pastor.  He seems to know the Bible inside and out.  

Sye Ten is an apologist and is quite annoying from the little I have been able to stand to watch of various "debates"

Matt Dillahunty was often on a PBS show in Texas called The Atheist Experience.
It is a call-in show.
There is always a cohost that sits with him, such as Jenn Peoples, Tracie Harris and a few other guys.
Matt isn’t always on. They take turns.

Mostly, the callers are christians. A couple of times, it was a priest trying to proselytize.
When a caller asks what is the point of the show, the response is, to spread a positive message on atheism, humanism. There are a million shows promoting christianity and no shows about atheism. Why does it bother the caller that there is one show on atheism.

It is a but like this forum, but it is a call-in show.

He sometimes does debates.

Also, he says that he was part of a church. Almost, all the hosts were hardcore christians.
Matt Dillahunty was studying to be a priest. All the church members were proud of him. The more he studied, the more he saw the ugliness in the Bible, the more he understood that faith is not a good reason to believe in something.
