I'd just like to chime in from a "semi"-Christian perspective.
I don't appreciate how he goes to insult creationists by calling them "fucktards." They are human too, and its wrong to call anybody names. It really just makes the guy look stupid, no professional debater will directly insult the guy he's debating with, so why is he doing it. Now about his argument. Well, honestly I do definitely agree, you can't "just follow Jesus." The old testement is just as important as the new testement and to exclude one means you might as well not follow the bible at all. And I agree with everything he said really, i'm not going to argue with him, because I can't argue with him. So I just simply agree.
I personally feel like the bible is a colossal waste to read anyway. Its riddled with contradictions, shows just how evil God is, and isn't even followed word by word by almost all Christians (no not almost all, basically ALL Christians).
I identify as Christian, but I don't follow God. I'm probably as close to atheist as you can get, I'm just not ready to fully admit it yet. So I still continue to attend church.
Thanks for sharing the video.
