Typical Closed-minded Atheist

This comes about in response to being told, hundreds and hundreds of times over the years, that my having once been a believer, and then reading and learning enough to have become a non-believer, but then NOT going back to being a believer again when confronted with familiar, shitty, long-ago-debunked arguments for Christianity, indicates conclusively that I am CLOSED-MINDED. Sound familiar? Changed my mind on something huge, definitive, and life-changing, and not going back? "CLOSED-MINDED!!" Read on: ——————————————— Website and blog: http://www.nonstampcollector.com Bluesky: @nonstampcollector (I basically quit Twitter/X.) PATREON:   / nonstampcollector   Don't Buy Me a Coffee: despite the inclusion at the tail-end of this video, I decline all coffee now. I deleted my account at that site, so that link won't get you anywhere. I wasn't exactly drowning in coffees. Appreciation, though, to those who did buy me a coffee at any stage. AD: Hell isn't real, but hard drive crashes and computer thefts are. I've been using Backblaze online backup for longer than I've been on Youtube. I fear neither hell nor total data loss. Try it here: https://www.backblaze.com/cloud-backu... . It's the only thing I've ever advertised, and I'm proud to do so knowing that it will very likely truly save someone's ass someday. Maybe yours. —————————————— I, like millions of others, was open-minded enough to have thought my way OUT of Christianity. Those who would criticise someone like me as being "closed-minded" aren't really getting what it means to truly look at ‘both sides’ fairly, as they so often insist that I should. Looking at both sides was what got me out of faith. I know I’m not alone in having the label "closed-minded" applied to me for having looked carefully at arguments that went against everything I wanted to believe, so much so that I had no choice but to relinquish the worldview I defined myself within, and enter a world that seemed utterly bereft of any stability or familiarity. Yeah, real "closed". An earlier version of the script for this video included the famous quote about a mind, having been stretched by a new idea, being unable to return to its original dimensions. Once you've gone past ascribing godly infallibility to the bible texts, for example, and instead seen them for the purely human, flawed, mistaken, and naturally imperfect documents that they are, one can't simply go back to pretending that those tell-tale signs of their lowly origin are not really there. I’m hoping that this character (on the left) can be equally as infuriating as the guy I had interviewing Dr. Finch in my 2010 “Special Investigation: Evolution” video. (Remember him? "Not even ONE!") That guy PISSES PEOPLE OFF! Well I’m not sure that this was worth the wait or not, but it’s what I’ve got. I hope it meets with general approval. It's one for the choir, I know. Well, the choir has been very good to me. VERY SPECIAL THANKS to my most outrageously-generous supporters on Patreon: Anthony Guthrie Josh Science rocks Not to diminish, of course, the very very kind and generous support of many others, also. I truly appreciate that you'd want to help me get these things out.
