Sing a song, sounds like she's singing.
0:33
Sing a song sounds like she's singing.
0:36
Everything's going bad. Strand in the wind and the web
0:45
light is known, I begin again, said to my friend.
0:50
Baby. Nothing else mattered.
0:57
He was normal and a baby thing when he seemed broken hearted,
1:09
something within him from a moment that I first laid eyes on
1:20
him all day long on the edge of 17.
1:30
Just like the white winged the Sing the song sounds like she's
1:34
singing. Just like the white winged sing
1:41
the songs sounds like she's singing.
1:43
You maybe fools him when I am today.
1:49
Maybe I will go again tomorrow. And now the music.
1:57
There, what it was, hauntingly familiar.
2:04
When I seen you do it, I try to do for me with the words, with a
2:10
poor my voice, with a choir. And they mounted.
2:14
Nothing else mattered. Just like The Wind Winkers that
2:23
sings a song. Sounds like she's singing wing
2:32
the Sing the song. Sounds like she's singing Woo
2:34
woo woo SIM The Clouds Never Expecting When it rains.
2:44
If off the sea changes color of the sea it does not change, so
2:56
it's slow. A graceful girl of age I went
3:03
for with of Angel desire to peace on the edge of 17.
3:39
Sing a song Sounds like she's singing.
3:47
Sing a song, sounds like she's singing.
3:49
Oh baby, oh Terry, oh. Suddenly there was no one left
3:57
standing in the hall And a lot of tears out.
4:05
No one really ever put the ball at all.
4:11
Growing such important dancing down the hall.
4:15
Not to find an answer, just to hear the cold of the night
4:23
singing. Come away, come away, come away.
4:27
Just like a wild winger sings a song.
4:30
Sounds like she's singing. Just like a wild winger sings a
4:38
song. Sounds like she's singing
5:22
the. So where did all this energy and
5:48
space come from? The answer was found after
5:53
decades of work by scientists. Space and energy was
5:58
spontaneously created in an event we now call The Big Bang.
6:09
At the moment of The Big Bang, an entire universe full of
6:13
energy came into existence, and within space it all inflated,
6:23
just like a balloon being blown up.
6:29
So where did all this energy and space come from?
6:35
How does an entire universe full of energy, the awesome vastness
6:40
of space, and everything in it simply appear out of nothing?
6:47
The sun. This is where God.
6:50
Comes back into the picture the, the.
8:00
Soldiers, don't give yourselves to brutes.
8:02
Men who despise you, enslave you who regiment your lives, tell
8:06
you what to do, what to think and what to feel.
8:08
Who drill you, tie at you, treat you like cattle, use you as
8:11
cannon fodder. Don't give yourselves to these
8:14
unnatural men, machine men with machine minds and machine
8:18
hearts. You are not machines.
8:20
You are not cattle. You are men.
8:22
You have the love of humanity in your hearts.
8:25
You don't hate. Only the unloved hate, the
8:27
unloved and the unnatural. Soldiers don't fight for
8:30
slavery, fight for liberty. In the 17th chapter of Saint
8:34
Lucas is written, The Kingdom of God is within man.
8:36
Not one man or a group of men, but in all men.
8:39
In you, you the people have the power, the power to create
8:42
machines, the power to create happiness.
8:44
You, the people, have the power to make this life free and
8:47
beautiful, to make this life a wonderful adventure.
8:50
Then in the name of democracy, let us choose that power.
8:53
Let us all unite. Let us.
8:56
Fight for a new world, a decent world that will give men a
8:59
chance to work, that will give you the future and old age of
9:02
security. Like the promise of these
9:04
things, brutes have risen to power, but they lie.
9:07
They do not fulfil that promise. They never will.
9:10
Dictators free themselves, but they enslave the people.
9:13
Now let us fight to fulfil that promise.
9:16
Let us fight to free the world, to do away with national
9:20
barriers, to do away with greed, with hate and intolerance.
9:24
Let us fight for a world of reason, a world where science
9:28
and progress will lead to all men's happiness.
9:31
Soldiers, in the name of democracy, let us all unite.
9:53
Don't let your aim in the string and devote to the destiny.
10:18
Well, hello ladies and gentlemen.
10:19
My name is Brett Keene and you are watching and listening to
10:22
the Brett Keene Show for now, Warren, we're going to be doing
10:26
a lot of live game streaming, but I'm also going to talk about
10:29
religion, atheism, all the other religions out there.
10:34
And I'm also going to discuss philosophy, science, all while
10:39
playing a video game. So I hope that you guys are cool
10:45
with that. I feel like it'll give you more
10:47
to look at visually while we're having conversations and
10:52
talking. In the future, I might every
10:55
once in a while do a one-on-one with somebody or go on
10:59
somebody's podcast and stream it to my own channel.
11:03
Who knows? Right now we're in the process
11:06
of creating a character. We're playing the game Skyrim.
11:13
We. As far as I'm concerned, I
11:17
started out on Moral Wind and then I started playing games
11:20
like Oblivion, and then the Fallout series came out.
11:25
Well, the Fallout series was already existing.
11:28
I'm talking about the 3-4 dimensional version of it, like
11:31
Fallout 3 and Vegas. And then of course, Fallout 4.
11:35
Which by the way, Fallout 4 is, even though it's one of the most
11:38
criticized Fallout games, I felt that was probably the best.
11:44
And that's only because I was able to mod it, and also other
11:50
people continued to contribute much content to the game, so it
11:55
made it 100 times better than what it originally was.
11:59
How the modders are so awesome, including myself, that we were
12:02
able to actually create different alternative endings
12:06
for the game because. The one that Bethesda came up
12:09
with absolutely sucked. Basically you kill all the
12:13
different factions and if you end up becoming a part of the
12:20
institute, you're going to be a part of either killing your own
12:24
son in the game or. Watching your son die from
12:27
cancer, it was a pretty negative S ending after all that work and
12:32
time. So a lot of us got together and
12:35
we ended up making alternatives where you could save the father,
12:38
you could save your family. You could also democratically,
12:45
peacefully work out everything and any quest that tried to give
12:49
you some kind of moral dilemma. You always had a way out.
12:53
You could either talk your way out of it or you can do
12:56
something that it wouldn't end in negatively and you know, hurt
13:00
your consciousness. Well, I remember when I first
13:06
seen Skyrim, my son actually started playing it.
13:11
I didn't even realize at the time that it was from Bethesda
13:15
had been so long since Bethesda created a game, and been so long
13:19
since I played Fallout 3 and. Vegas and all that, that.
13:24
I didn't even know they came up with something new, and for
13:27
whatever reason, when I first like seen some videos of it, I
13:31
wasn't. It just didn't do it for me.
13:34
It just felt like it was more of a combat game from what I seen
13:37
on video. But then my son actually
13:40
purchased it and I watched him play it.
13:42
I seen him deal with the dragon at the beginning, the beheading,
13:47
the whole wagon scene, all that. And then running down the
13:52
Riverwood and you know, selling some items off picking plants
13:56
and all that. And I started to realize as he
14:00
made his way to White Run and took on his first dragon that
14:05
the game actually was a role-playing game and it was far
14:09
superior to Oblivion and Fallout.
14:14
And it's one of the reasons why Skyrim, of course, is probably
14:18
the greatest piece of work that Bethesda ever put together.
14:22
The games prior to it were good, but this one was, I would say,
14:28
100 steps up whenever it comes to graphics and depth and all
14:32
that. I mean, you literally felt like
14:35
you were in a completely different world.
14:37
Now some of you are going to probably be watching this video
14:40
and saying to yourself. What's the deal here?
14:43
How come you're not on the wagon?
14:45
Where's the beheading? Where's Ultra and all this kind
14:48
of stuff? Well, I I've got an alternate
14:53
start where I can choose where I begin at.
14:56
As you can see these are some of my mods that I created.
14:59
You're going to see a lot of my mods in this broadcast.
15:03
This is my family. I put them into the game.
15:06
I created each one of them. And.
15:11
You know, I enjoy. I've got.
15:13
I probably created over a dozen followers of my family as well
15:17
as friends. If you watch, you're going to
15:19
notice that my kids, my wife, my brother, my sister.
15:24
And then on top of it, my friend J Dubs is sitting over there on
15:27
that bench to the right and also a friend of mine named Mark
15:32
Felton. My friend Mark Felton, I told a
15:35
personal story about this a while back.
15:37
He. Actually was on his way to
15:39
college. I was 17, He was 18.
15:43
He was killed in an automobile accident because there was a
15:47
drunk driver who ran him off the road.
15:50
Almost killing this pregnant woman has but succeeding and
15:55
killing my best friend in the entire world, it's something
16:01
I've never been able to heal from.
16:03
This was a guy who. I grew up with.
16:06
I was literally, we were babies, grew up together.
16:10
He was like a brother to me. To be honest with you, most
16:16
deaths that have happened to my family, I never got over.
16:19
They say with time comes healing, but every time it's a
16:23
birthday or it's one of their birthdays or it's a Christmas,
16:27
I'm reminded of the loss. I remember when I used to be an
16:33
atheist and. Would think that I would never
16:36
be able to see them again. It was devastating, painful to
16:45
imagine that there was no purpose or meaning and that I
16:49
simply was never going to see those that I loved or cared
16:52
about again. You say your dog is a frostbite.
16:56
A lot of they say statistically that a majority of atheists are
17:00
young people. A lot of them are young people.
17:03
It's not until they get older. And start experiencing life and
17:07
experiencing good and evil for themselves, where they really
17:13
find themselves appreciating and taking the time that they have
17:17
as cherished. I've got your back.
17:22
I think a lot of my friends that used to be atheist, they had one
17:28
of the same kind of miracles happen to them that I had and
17:32
that scene life brought into the world.
17:35
For some people, when they watch TV or they I guess watch shows
17:40
or something like that, they they see children and babies
17:45
born in the world all the time on TV and I guess they just take
17:49
it as well. That's just a normal part of
17:52
life or whatever. And they never until they
17:56
actually hold their own child in their hand until they look into
18:00
the eyes of their own baby. And also look into the eyes of
18:05
the woman who bore their child while she's sitting there
18:10
holding your offspring. Something changes in the side of
18:14
you. They even say scientifically on
18:16
a biological level, from that moment you change.
18:22
I'm sure there's the rare amount of people out there that simply
18:26
don't have that instinct. They don't have that desire.
18:29
They don't. There are some people out there
18:32
that they don't see the miracle. They would be willing to abort
18:36
their child, or they'd be willing to have the baby and
18:39
then throw it in a dumpster in the cold of winter and not think
18:44
twice about it and then run off. There's people out there who
18:52
have absolutely no control over their willpower, and they
18:55
decide. That they want to go out and
18:58
have sex and be promiscuous, and then they wonder why it is that
19:03
nine months from that point on, they're going to end up having a
19:05
child. But whether they kill it or
19:08
whether they harm themselves in the process, it doesn't take
19:11
away the value of life, does it? It doesn't take away that a
19:16
miracle was basically destroyed. And I believe that every person
19:21
on the planet has that opportunity to experience.
19:25
Miracles. I think every one of us in life,
19:29
we've experienced miracles, but we took it for granted.
19:34
If we just think about how time in the universe works, we just
19:38
think about how if we would have went left instead of right, or
19:44
we would have made this decision over another thing.
19:47
How much of A butterfly effect, or how much impact our choices
19:53
have are not only ourselves. But everyone around us,
19:57
everything we do, changes the world and moves it forward.
20:01
And some things almost seem to repeat themselves and and take
20:07
us backwards. You notice that that's how much
20:11
impact we have. Everything we do is a part of
20:16
the universe. We are the eyes that actually
20:19
observe our universe and that observe our life.
20:23
We are. If Carl Sagan is right, and we
20:27
are children of them, the light, children of the stars, we are
20:33
the the Stardust. Then the Bible is right whenever
20:38
it says that God made us from the dust and the materials of
20:42
the earth. That's where the stars go.
20:45
The remnants end up falling onto a planet or world.
20:55
That's one of the things that I've always found amazing about
20:58
the concept of God. If you look at any other
21:02
religion out there now, a lot of people say, how do you know
21:08
which religion is right? How do you know what is true?
21:12
One of the fascinating things about the Bible, what the Bible
21:15
has in it for those atheists that don't get it.
21:18
And you really believe that if you looked into a Pagan religion
21:22
or the Muslim religion, if you can't see the difference between
21:26
Ed and Judaism and Christianity, then you're not looking hard
21:30
enough or you're just simply not looking at all.
21:33
And I'll explain why. If you were to go in the library
21:38
right now and you were to grab a Quran, or you were to grab some
21:41
kind of book off a mythology shelf having to do with Zeus or
21:45
Hercules or any one of the Pagan gods, let's.
21:49
Go. You're going to find that the
21:51
book will describe for you how that God interacted with
21:56
mankind. And then the story is basically
22:00
at an end. It tells you a fantasy version
22:04
of what happened to those gods. Many of the Pagan gods were
22:08
absolutely annihilated and destroyed, some of them
22:11
destroyed by Titans. Well, we know for a fact that
22:15
that didn't happen. None of the Titans actually ever
22:18
existed, and we never actually witnessed Zeus or Hercules or
22:25
any of those forms of God's die. But whenever it comes to Jesus
22:29
Christ, we actually have an over and abundance of historical
22:34
evidence that Christ actually existed.
22:36
So we have the history there, and we also have the bodies, the
22:41
dead bodies of many of the writers and those who
22:45
participated in the Bible. To make matters worse, when you
22:50
read the story of like Hercules or something, or Mithra, the sun
22:56
God, or any of these things that appear to have similarities with
22:59
Christianity, these are entities that usually got one book
23:06
themselves. And how do I put this?
23:11
All right, I'll go with it. I'll go with it this way so you
23:14
can understand. When you read the Bible, you're
23:17
not reading just one book, you're reading a collection.
23:21
There's over 80 to 100 books out there.
23:24
Some of them were not canonized and each one of them were
23:28
written by a completely unique person, an original person.
23:33
As where if you were to read the Quran that supposedly was
23:36
written by one single person, that one person got the narrate
23:41
and invent and completely attribute whatever they wanted
23:45
to their concept of God. When you read about Hercules or
23:49
Zeus, you've got one book by a writer who created the fantasy
23:54
and the story, and there's a little bit of lore behind it,
23:58
but you don't have an entire legacy of book after book after
24:04
book, of generation after generation doing this.
24:10
The most the other gods ever were given, besides their one
24:15
story hit, was some of them had temples built to them and that's
24:21
it. They don't have a bunch of
24:24
unique witnesses. According to the Bible, Moses,
24:29
Joshua, David, all the way up to Malachi, all these different
24:35
figures, Adam and Eve, every single one of these people claim
24:40
to have actually witnessed God and interacted with them.
24:45
For thousands of years humans have claimed to have
24:49
interactions with the God of the Bible, but if you go to look at
24:54
any of the other gods, they have one single book.
24:57
There isn't several books written about one God.
25:00
Even in the Pagan religion where it's all about outside gods,
25:06
none of them have their own collection of stories where
25:10
people carried it on. It's one of the reasons why
25:13
paganism is dead. There isn't 10 books about Zeus
25:22
and 10 different authors and writers, unless you count these
25:26
fantasy TV shows that clearly indicate that it's mythology.
25:32
The Bible does not do that. It was written by real people
25:38
who claimed to have real experiences.
25:44
All right, so I hope you're enjoying the gameplay so far.
25:48
Time to get lost, friends. Looks like my family is doing
25:55
pretty good. I made a video recently where I
26:00
talked about a challenge for Christians as well as atheist.
26:06
And the challenge was, is that if two Christian parents and
26:10
their children were kidnapped along with two atheist parents
26:14
and their kids were kidnapped and the hostage taker basically
26:19
said you have a choice, you can either willfully die for the
26:24
other parents children or you can die right now, which one
26:29
would you do? Basically, the atheist could die
26:32
for the Christian children and the Christians could die for the
26:36
atheist children. Unfortunately, the Christians
26:39
out there I have discovered in the last year that a majority of
26:45
my supporters, those who donate to me as well as watch me, or
26:51
usually a majority atheist. Yes, How do I know this?
26:57
Because I put up a lot of polls and a lot of surveys and I
27:01
posted things like is God real? Is God dead?
27:07
Does God never existed? And 90% of the votes were people
27:12
who didn't believe in God. So that tells me that a lot of
27:16
the people who are actually paying attention to my community
27:19
as well as watching my videos are non believers.
27:23
Why would Christians vote that there isn't a God, right?
27:26
It's logical, it's rational. So I found that out and then I
27:32
did my challenge video because I was interested in hearing what
27:35
atheists and Christians had to say.
27:38
And unfortunately, not one single Christian, except for
27:41
TTOR, which is a friend of mine who is a Christian, a young
27:46
earth creationist who actually said that he would die for the
27:49
children of atheist and he would willfully die.
27:54
He did say that he would fight to the death before his life is
27:59
ended. He's not just going to stand
28:02
there and let himself be killed, which is perfectly fine.
28:05
That's OK. I don't expect anybody.
28:08
Just stand there and let somebody take you out or hurt
28:11
you. Well, about two or three
28:18
atheists have responded so far, and both atheists have said that
28:24
they would die for the children of Christians.
28:29
And I asked them to explain themselves.
28:31
Why would you die for Christian children?
28:34
For why would you sacrifice your life, especially believing that
28:39
once you're dead it's over? Because these particularly
28:42
specific atheists, they don't believe there's an afterlife,
28:47
obviously, they don't believe there's a God, they don't
28:49
believe they have a soul. So why would they give up their
28:54
their existence? Why would they allow their gene
28:57
pool to be completely deleted off of the earth for strangers
29:03
and most likely kids who are going to end up being believing
29:07
in God anyway? One atheist described to me that
29:15
it's because this is how nature made him.
29:19
Nature made him willing to give sacrifice.
29:23
He says that according to evolution and nature and a court
29:27
and according to the psychology of tribalism, that Christians
29:32
are a part of this tribe, that he actually has people in his
29:35
family who are, that he considers a part of his group.
29:41
So if he dies, it helps the genes move forward.
29:48
That was his explanation. And that's fine.
29:51
If you want to use psychology and say, well, you're in a tribe
29:56
so you're willing to die so your tribesmen can continue on, well,
30:02
there's a problem with that, isn't there?
30:05
Because the fact that the Christian children are young,
30:08
you have no idea if they're going to contribute to the tribe
30:11
or not. You don't know if in the future
30:15
they become evil or psychotic killers or they end up being the
30:19
very reason why your tribe gets wiped out.
30:23
There's so many variables that could happen with the kids who
30:27
survived due to your death that you have no idea if they're
30:34
going to have a positive impact or a negative.
30:37
So what that tells me is that you are in the atheist with
30:41
faith. You believe that your life will
30:44
actually mean something. You believe that your death will
30:48
somehow positively impact humanity in some kind of way, or
30:54
at least a small group of it isn't that fascinating.
31:00
By answering that way, you basically believe that your
31:04
fate, if it were sealed, if you were destroyed, it would somehow
31:09
make the world better. Because when you look at
31:17
children, ladies and gentlemen, as I said in the very beginning
31:20
of the video, all children are beautiful, right?
31:25
They're all beautiful. But unfortunately, after time,
31:28
some kids will stray away. They some kids will become evil.
31:34
Some kids will get into drugs, some kids will commit violence,
31:39
some kids will walk into a high school and kill everybody.
31:42
You don't know. Some kids will go on to be the
31:46
President of the United States and then lie to its people over
31:50
and over and over. As far as you know, that kid
31:53
could end up being the Antichrist.
31:58
We can all hope that the kid would grow up and be the next
32:01
Albert Einstein, right? So the atheist has faith.
32:06
He has so much faith that he's willing to die for children that
32:11
he doesn't even know, because that's the hypothetical.
32:15
That was the question, would you die for a stranger's children,
32:20
especially if they had a a completely different spectrum or
32:24
in theological position? And you said yes.
32:31
Now, my friend Adam, he argued that there might be a lot of
32:34
atheists that they're willing to sacrifice themselves because of
32:38
something that I brought up a while back.
32:41
You see, according to stats, atheists already have the
32:45
highest substance abuse and they also have the highest suicide
32:49
rate over all religions and beliefs and views out there.
32:56
So if that is the case, then to do a sacrifice isn't really so
33:01
much for other people, but it's to basically rid themselves of
33:07
the negativity or what they find wrong with this world.
33:11
They're getting rid of themselves so they don't have to
33:13
suffer or feel pain anymore. That's why I would suspect
33:17
someone would commit suicide in the 1st place, right?
33:20
Because they're sick of life, they're sick of the system and
33:25
the way everything's set up. But a majority of atheists have
33:29
a higher suicide rate compared to all religions combined.
33:34
So that's another motive on why somebody that is non believer
33:38
would be willing to take themselves out.
33:40
Not just because they have the sense that they did something
33:44
altruistic to help others, but they didn't want to live in the
33:47
1st place if that makes sense. I mean if you had a choice, if
33:52
you knew you were going to die and you wanted to die, would you
33:56
rather hang yourself? Would you rather cut your wrist
34:00
while sitting on a bathtub or have your life actually mean
34:05
something for a temporal moment in time where your life actually
34:11
saves the lives of others? That's kind of a good trade off,
34:16
isn't that? You don't want to live, you hate
34:18
life, and now you get to give up your life and somehow it's going
34:23
to be good for somebody else. You know?
34:26
That's how a lot of people who commit suicide end up thinking
34:29
anyway. Did you know that people who
34:32
commit suicide usually tell themselves that life and the
34:36
world would be better without them?
34:41
They think if they destroy themselves, that everyone would
34:47
be happier. What?
34:48
Do you need to take? Because sometimes a person who
34:51
commits suicide feels like they're a burden on the world, a
34:55
burden on the planet. How do I know that?
34:59
Because I myself, I suffer from severe depression, and I've also
35:02
had people I love commit suicide.
35:05
So I know what it's like to feel like a bird.
35:08
And I know what it's like to feel as though you're just not
35:12
doing enough, That maybe you're more of a problem than you are
35:16
good, that you're more of the problem than the solution.
35:19
I know what that feels like. And then it goes back to looking
35:23
into the eyes of my kids and looking into the eyes of my wife
35:27
and realizing that as long as I'm alive, I get to experience
35:31
the miracle, the miracle that is life.
35:38
So the atheist tried to argue with me and basically say, look,
35:42
you know, it's a part of the tribal thing.
35:45
It's a part of the psychology. It's a part of, you know, trying
35:49
to move the tribe forward without even knowing if it's
35:54
going to have that effect that they're looking for.
35:59
Then the question, of course, goes into this.
36:03
What happened in the environment?
36:05
What went darn with evolution and variables and then
36:10
abiogenesis, which is the beginning transition into
36:13
evolution? What happened in the environment
36:18
that made a human even have the ability to think like that or
36:23
even philosophize about life and death in the 1st place?
36:29
What made this happen? What made it to where a person
36:37
thinks that their genes are? Somehow it's better.
36:41
Off. I'm still here.
36:41
What do you? OK, let me, let me try to put it
36:45
this way. You see, I'm here.
36:48
I'm sitting here playing a video game.
36:51
When you look at this video game, you all do realize when
36:54
you're watching and looking at it that this game, in order for
36:58
it to exist, it requires a person who imagined it up.
37:05
OK, the story didn't just come into existence all by itself.
37:09
It didn't just the game didn't just appear on the store
37:12
shelves. Someone actually wrote a story.
37:16
And then a bunch of people came together and they created
37:20
scripts and codes and information in order to make
37:24
everything that you see in this imagery work.
37:28
What do you want me to carry? All the visual, all the color,
37:32
all the textures, they created this and because of the creation
37:38
of it, it also created the tone and the effect that it has on
37:41
your emotions and feelings. They gave you so many
37:45
alternatives that it left you with the ability to choose on
37:49
how you want to play. You can be an evil character,
37:51
you can be a good character. You can do all these different
37:55
things all right. Now, if I were to ask you this
38:01
simple question of can any of these characters actually create
38:07
themselves? Can any of this game come into
38:11
existence by itself? You'd say no.
38:14
What if I were to ask you? Can something dead or inanimate
38:18
create this, this game that we're looking at right now that
38:21
I'm playing? You'd say.
38:23
Well, of course not. It requires a mind, it requires
38:28
intelligent people, or the game would never exist, right?
38:35
Of course. I mean, that's you'd have to be
38:38
stupid. But what if you were in a room
38:41
with somebody that didn't believe in game developers?
38:44
Or a person who doesn't believe in writers and all that?
38:48
Or that there's someone outside the monitor or the computer or
38:52
the game actually looking in. While I'm playing this game,
38:58
time and space and matter is completely different than what
39:03
I'm actually experiencing because I'm outside the game and
39:07
the console or PC game or whatever the hell you're
39:11
playing. We're on the outside.
39:13
We're like the God looking in. We're able to see what the
39:16
figures are doing. We're able to see what their
39:20
choices are in their decisions, right?
39:23
I'm not omniscient or omnipresent.
39:26
It's just that because the game is set up in a certain way, it's
39:29
interface, I'm able to watch it and see what is happening,
39:36
right? I can actually see the
39:38
characters and their choices and all that, and I can assist them.
39:43
Now I set up the code and script for my followers to protect me.
39:48
What do you need? What if I had not put that in
39:51
there? You want me to carry it?
39:52
I also gave them the ability to wear.
39:54
They wouldn't die unless I personally killed them.
39:59
The NPCS will run with me and they will protect me with
40:03
everything they got. I give them the weapons, I give
40:08
them the clothes, I give them all the resources they are
40:11
required and they fight for me. They do what I basically.
40:19
Set out for them to do. I had a goal.
40:23
I gave an objective purpose and meaning to these characters.
40:26
Their purpose and existence is to protect me and follow me till
40:32
the end of time, at least in the game.
40:36
Now some of you are probably asking what did you mean about
40:38
the whole space and time thing? Well, because I'm outside and
40:43
I'm in a completely different dimension than inside of my
40:46
computer, time for me is different.
40:49
Hours go by longer moments and choices have more impact, but
40:55
inside the game, time is different.
40:59
Within an hour, this game can go from daytime to night time, but
41:04
the characters will never notice.
41:06
They will never be able to contrast the difference between
41:09
their time and my time because of where they are in their
41:13
limitations. To me, that is how I view God.
41:19
I view God as being the guy who's outside the monitor, and
41:23
we're the ones that are in the simulation and that God has
41:26
designated people to be in our lives.
41:29
That will protect us, talk to us, hold us, love us whenever we
41:33
need it. They're not NPCS, though.
41:38
They're not robots, because God's ability to code is the
41:44
goat. He's the boss, so he's much
41:48
better than anything Bethesda can come up with, obviously, and
41:53
that should be expected. If you believe that there's life
41:57
out in the universe, and you believe that there's entities
42:00
that have existed far longer than humanity, then surely if
42:04
they're humanoid or sentient or don't require the same physical
42:09
form as us, they'll be affected differently from things like
42:14
pain and suffering. They can experience it, they can
42:18
observe it if they put themselves in the position or
42:21
come down to our level, and there's that.
42:30
But the point is, ladies and gentlemen, is that these
42:33
characters, they wouldn't even have the ability to protect me
42:38
or follow me around unless I had went in and coded them to do so.
42:44
So how do atheists explain their own coding?
42:48
How did the coding happen? They would try to describe it as
42:53
it was a natural act. It was something that just
42:56
happened because of the environment and variables.
42:59
Really. Does any of you think that
43:03
something like Skyrim, which is less evasive, less technology,
43:09
less technological, could come into existence by itself?
43:13
Do you think that these followers can program
43:16
themselves? No.
43:18
There's only two ways that these characters could create
43:24
themselves in this entire world known as Skyrim, or at least
43:28
region. You would require a living
43:32
sentient person outside of it to code it and script it.
43:36
Or you would require an artificial intelligence, but
43:43
even an AI or artificial intelligence or even an alien
43:48
would require some kind of explanation on why it exists in
43:52
the 1st place. And we would have an
43:53
explanation, Wouldn't we, at least for the AIAI exist because
43:58
we designed it, we programmed it, and it's going to respond
44:02
accordingly, and it's going to go and grab the information that
44:06
we asked for because we programmed it to be able to do
44:11
that. If we didn't, it would just
44:13
simply be an empty, blank browser.
44:20
So this is one of the main reasons, ladies and gentlemen,
44:23
why I believe in God, and I also believe that God actually coded
44:29
morality into us. And just because the morality is
44:32
coded into us, we've also been programmed to be able to seek
44:37
alternatives to the moral code that has been put in there.
44:40
Just like Skyrim, you have been set to be able to have the
44:47
choice and the alternative to fight for good, save the people
44:53
from Dragons. Or you could just mind your
44:56
business and farm all day and let Dragons come in and pillage
44:59
and set your settlers and people are on fire.
45:03
You could become the Dragonborn, or you could become the
45:06
Nightmare of Tamriel. It's your choice.
45:11
But you've been coded with all these abilities.
45:14
You've been coded not predetermined or set to do these
45:19
things, but the creator, the developers, they knew when they
45:23
were making the game. They knew that with all these
45:27
options, you'll either do really cool things.
45:31
You'll either be the most awesome good guy ever, the
45:36
killer of Dragons, or you'll be running around sniping people
45:43
with your bow or killing innocent people and doing all
45:47
these things. Now let me ask you something.
45:51
Knowing that, could that make the developers evil?
45:57
The developers created you a good game.
45:59
They gave you all the resources, they gave you all the abilities,
46:02
they gave you all the instruments and equipment.
46:05
And you choose, instead of being the Dragonborn, taking all the
46:09
choices and alternatives that lead towards good, you choose to
46:13
do bad things. Why?
46:14
Because you're bored. Or maybe you've got
46:17
psychological problems and you've decided that you want to
46:20
do evil shit. Does that make the developer
46:24
evil? Oh.
46:29
I'm still here. Does that make the designer of
46:36
the game bad? If you choose to do something
46:40
bad, ask yourself that. We've stopped the designer,
46:48
created the game. He's given you every resource
46:50
possible to be whatever if you want to be.
46:53
You can be the best version of yourself, or you can be the
46:58
worst. Now let's say the developer is
47:04
watching your character, your avatar, your NPC, and you
47:11
continue to kill and destroy and you continue to take out
47:16
character after character, killing quest givers and people
47:19
who are trying to give you goals and objectives and you keep
47:23
killing everything around you. So one day the creator decides,
47:28
all right, this is a failed attempt.
47:32
This character is not good, and it's 'cause nothing but
47:38
reckoning and wrath and destruction in the world I
47:42
created. So the designer of the game
47:47
decides that you need to be deleted, that you need to be
47:50
removed out of it because you won't change, you won't make
47:55
good choices. You continue to get off and
47:58
hurting and harming people and animals and everything around
48:02
you. We stopped.
48:03
What is it? You and your friends are going
48:06
to complain. Obviously you can be like, but
48:09
if you love me, you'll let me stick around and do all this.
48:17
You may even asked a question. Why did the creator even do this
48:24
for in the 1st place? Why did he put me here?
48:30
Why does the creator expect me to follow these rules or do
48:34
these things? Why?
48:36
Why can't I just? If this designer and programmer
48:39
loves me so much, then why can't I just do what I want to do and
48:46
get away with it? Well, it's because you've made
48:51
every other person in the game miserable.
48:56
You've done a bunch of unnecessary things.
48:59
You've been given every opportunity in the world to do
49:03
something good. You chose not to.
49:11
So it seems to me that the only option is is that you're
49:14
deleted. You're removed.
49:16
Do I feel bad about it? Why should I feel bad about it?
49:20
A character being deleted that had no intention or interest in
49:26
ever doing anything good or doing anything right?
49:32
And then the next question I have to ask all of you is, if
49:39
the character of the avatar did not have coding set in place
49:43
where it was allowed to do good and evil, then what kind of
49:47
character would it be if you didn't put any script or code in
49:51
it for it to have these options or abilities?
49:55
Well, it would be defined as dead, wouldn't it?
50:01
There wouldn't be any life. It would be a character that
50:04
doesn't have any parameters or doesn't have any objective.
50:08
It doesn't have any meaning or purpose.
50:11
If there's nothing to fight, if there's nothing to do, if
50:16
there's no quest, if there's no goals, if it's as empty as
50:19
Fallout 76, then what's the fucking point?
50:25
The point is, is that you get to experience life, and life is
50:29
good or evil. Life is whatever you make of it,
50:34
right? That's the meaning of life for
50:42
the atheists out there who say, well, there is no objective
50:44
morals, isn't there? When you play the game, don't
50:48
you see that it's been programmed, It's been set up
50:52
that there's a system in place. Everything from your environment
50:56
to the fire that you see there, everything around you, is
51:02
completely and utterly coded. If you were actually living
51:08
within the simulation or within the program and you were not
51:12
aware that there was something outside of it, you would think
51:16
that this is the only one true life, right?
51:20
That's what atheists say, don't they?
51:21
They say this is the only life I have.
51:25
This is the only existence I have.
51:28
There's nobody on the outside of the monitor.
51:30
There's nobody looking in. There's nobody who coded things
51:34
and set things together. OK?
51:40
And like I said earlier, if there's no code, if there's no
51:42
script, there's no point, then the game means nothing.
51:48
And if the game means nothing, then you mean nothing, right?
51:53
If there is no good or evil, there is no code.
51:57
Then you're simply a bunch of pixels on the screen and that's
52:02
it. If anything,
52:23
I've asked people repeatedly. I've asked atheists, why do you
52:30
think we have pain receptors for?
52:35
Why do you think we have this ability to feel and the non
52:40
believer will respond with a very surface response, let's say
52:45
well if we couldn't feel then we wouldn't comprehend pain or when
52:49
we're hurting. OK, but why does that exist?
52:55
For why is it that whenever my character is hit with a sword,
52:59
or I hit another character with my sword, the blood splatters?
53:05
Why is it that the characters that I hit or crush with my
53:09
shield scream out in pain, or at least respond as though they're
53:15
suffering or hurting? Well, it's because they were
53:24
programmed to. If I didn't have my little
53:27
health bar and I didn't hear the screams or yells and didn't hear
53:30
the sword as it slashed, if I wasn't able to experience the
53:34
sound and the visual, then I wouldn't even know, right?
53:42
And it wouldn't be much of the game.
53:44
If you couldn't do that, if you couldn't plant food, if you
53:50
couldn't be able to block with your shield and do all these
53:56
things, then what would be the point?
54:01
It's an interesting conundrum, isn't it?
54:06
In order to feel as though you've accomplished something,
54:09
you have to get through hard times.
54:12
In order for me to feel as though I've achieved something,
54:15
I need to be able to get the Dragonstone right.
54:22
I need to face a dragon that will most likely be very painful
54:27
for all those who are experiencing it.
54:30
But if I take out the dragon, then I become the Dragonborn.
54:35
If I don't face the conflict, then how do I know what is good?
54:42
I have to experience something bad in order to be able to
54:45
experience the good that comes from it.
54:49
That's interesting about good and evil, right?
54:53
If you are able to have a conflict with something evil or
54:57
bad, and you're able to morally accomplish or achieve getting
55:02
beyond that thing, to accomplish the reward that follows, whether
55:07
it be on a psychological level or mental, physical, whatever
55:13
the case, right then you feel good.
55:19
It makes your your body and your mind feel good.
55:22
I did something good. Although it's terrible if
55:26
somebody comes up to you and says, you know, there's a dragon
55:31
that runs around and it kills all these people and it does all
55:34
these horrible things. We need your help.
55:40
Well, if that didn't that event didn't happen, then you wouldn't
55:45
be able to have the future experience of being able to stop
55:49
it and actually understand what it's like to live in a world
55:53
without such evil doing these things in the 1st place.
56:00
Of course, there's always a possibility that you'll face the
56:06
dragon and you'll be too weak, You'll be too uneducated, you'll
56:11
be too nubish, and you'll die at the hands of the conflict.
56:21
The atheists would see that as game over.
56:28
The Christian of the Simply reroll, start over, or
56:33
resurrect. How do you see it?
56:40
Do you start? Do you reload?
56:42
Do you reload from your last save?
56:47
Keep on going? Or do you just say there's no
56:52
point, it's over. Game over.
56:55
Turn it off, shut down your PC, shut down your game and it's
57:00
over the back to the original challenge of survival, right?
57:08
Why would someone allow themselves to be killed for the
57:13
children of somebody else that they don't even know, and
57:18
especially someone who has a a vastly different theological
57:22
view than themselves? If you really believe that the
57:26
game is over, then what's the point of what you did for these
57:32
kids? Do you think that the game is
57:35
over for you, but the existence continues to go on, The game
57:39
continues and doesn't require you?
57:41
You're not necessary for the world and time and space to
57:46
continue. You're not relevant anymore.
57:49
Just because you have died doesn't mean that humanity
57:53
doesn't continue to prevail. But you're just.
57:57
You're less than that of a spoke in the wheel or the machine.
58:08
I'm going to say something that's going to piss a lot of
58:10
people off, but sorry, I got a little hungry there.
58:20
My son brought in some pizza. If you decide to allow your life
58:26
to be taken instead of the lives of the children, aren't you
58:33
necessarily saying that a world where you exist isn't going to
58:39
benefit for the better? Because you're saying that the
58:44
world needs the children, but the world doesn't need you?
58:51
If you don't mind you're atheist.
58:53
How did you come to that value system?
58:57
How did you determine that the life of strange children that
59:01
you've never even met or know have more value in existence
59:08
than your own? And take a sip of my coffee.
59:15
I want you to think about that. It's so dark.
59:36
So dark, Where did these emotions come
59:54
from? Are these instincts?
1:00:03
That's the go to explanation for everything.
1:00:05
When it comes to the atheist, evolution did it.
1:00:10
We have survival instincts and we have tribes and we got to
1:00:15
fight for each other or we won't survive, right?
1:00:21
But why do we got to fight for each other in the 1st place?
1:00:25
And why did humans even get to the point where they thought, oh
1:00:29
we need to get together and help each other?
1:00:33
There's a lot of animals out there.
1:00:36
When they see one of their group get jumped on, they don't do
1:00:41
shit. They run off or they just
1:00:43
fucking stand there and watch. Now to be fair, I have seen
1:00:50
countless times where humans stand around and watch people
1:00:53
get raped. I've seen humans stand around
1:00:56
while a little kid is being beat to death.
1:01:00
I've seen humans stand around and all scratching their head
1:01:06
wondering if they should do anything, and it seems like
1:01:09
nowadays when people see something bad happening, the
1:01:13
only thing that comes to their mind is not the instinct to save
1:01:17
them self or the person who's being victimized.
1:01:21
But the question is, how quickly can I get out my fucking cell
1:01:25
phone and hit record and stream the whole thing for views on
1:01:29
YouTube? Never mind that you might get
1:01:34
shot or killed because you're standing there recording this
1:01:38
shit, or maybe you're actually a part of the group that's doing
1:01:42
the killing or the suffering, right, so you don't think that
1:01:47
you're in any kind of danger. There's no consequences.
1:01:51
Isn't that odd the way a lot of people think?
1:01:54
I really believe that the Internet causes some people out
1:01:58
there or a majority of people who spend too much time on it, a
1:02:02
form of mental illness where when you think you're on a
1:02:05
computer, you're in fantasy land, like you think there's no
1:02:10
consequences or there's nothing that's going to happen to you
1:02:13
anymore. You literally assume the role of
1:02:17
a a God like entity. You think that you're safe and
1:02:22
that you can say and do whatever you want.
1:02:28
And when you're out in public and you see that there's a car
1:02:31
accident that happens and the first thing you do is, oh wow,
1:02:36
I'm going to have to record all this so people can experience
1:02:39
it. And you don't think, oh man,
1:02:43
somebody might have died, somebody's kid is dead,
1:02:47
somebody's mother or father, brother or sister is laying on
1:02:51
the fucking cement bleeding to death.
1:02:54
No, Alls you can imagine is the more I get on film, the more I
1:02:59
record. Somehow you feel as though you
1:03:06
benefit from it. So I'm not.
1:03:12
I guess the reason why I mention all that, that dark shit that I
1:03:15
just said was where is that tribalism attitude that people
1:03:21
talk about? It seems to me that when people
1:03:24
run into buildings that are on fire to save babies, there's not
1:03:29
a lot of people like that in the world.
1:03:32
That seems like a very rare type of person, right?
1:03:36
Have you ever watched one of these building fires where
1:03:40
somebody screams, there's children up in there, they're
1:03:43
trapped? Like 100 people will stand the
1:03:47
fuck around doing nothing but one person out of the group who
1:03:54
you would never even expect that perhaps comes off as an
1:03:58
outsider. A stranger is always the one
1:04:01
that runs in to get the fucking job done, but everybody else
1:04:05
stands around and they record or put their hands over their mouth
1:04:09
and goes Oh my God. So it doesn't seem to me that
1:04:15
the tribe thing is a really good explanation for anything, is it?
1:04:20
Even with animals, they say, oh, we've actually seen video
1:04:25
footage of animals. More and other animals have
1:04:28
died. I watched the video where a dog
1:04:31
tried to cross street and it got fucking smoked.
1:04:34
It got hit and it basically got its legs mangled and they could
1:04:38
not move itself out of the road and cars just kept flying past
1:04:42
it. And another dog decided to cross
1:04:45
the road, put itself in danger. It bit its buddy on its fur and
1:04:52
dragged that other dog off into safety and sat there and and
1:04:56
basically mourned it as it watched the other dog die.
1:05:00
It was sad, it was horrible, but it was beautiful at the same
1:05:05
time because you've seen that dog do something that you don't
1:05:08
often see dogs do. I can't tell you how many times
1:05:11
I've seen dogs kill cats. I can't tell you how many times
1:05:15
I've seen a dog die or an animal die, and then the other animals
1:05:20
don't do shit. In fact, they're waiting for it
1:05:22
to die so they could fucking eat it.
1:05:25
And they don't give a rat's ass about the dead animal that's
1:05:28
laying there. They don't mourn it.
1:05:31
They don't have a funeral. There's no ritual, no candles
1:05:34
lit. They just fucking eat it.
1:05:37
Or believe it or not, there's some animals that will actually
1:05:42
go up on the corpse of another animal and fuck it.
1:05:45
Or piss on it or wipe their ass. Just recently in the news, there
1:05:49
was a homeless guy who was going around shitting on dead possums
1:05:53
on the road. I kid you not.
1:05:55
Look it up. It's on Google.
1:05:59
So when atheists tell you that the groups do this and they
1:06:04
fight for each other in order to preserve the tribe, it's a
1:06:08
fucking lie. It's a lie.
1:06:12
The only reason why people keep each other around is because
1:06:16
they think that somehow the other person will benefit them.
1:06:19
It's not because they care about them, or love them or respect
1:06:22
them. They keep people around because
1:06:25
they think that if they get in some shit, that person will take
1:06:28
care of them. But the moment that they don't
1:06:32
think the person's useful anymore, they fucking let them
1:06:35
go. So is that really love?
1:06:38
Is that really survival of the fittest or instincts?
1:06:42
Or is it just you keep a motherfucker around until their
1:06:46
usefulness is out of time? To where the hell do all these
1:06:58
emotions come from? You always hear people talking
1:07:01
about, oh, I'm more logical and rational than you.
1:07:05
I'm in the science and you're fucking stupid and you believe
1:07:08
in sky daddies and fairy tales. Well, that's interesting to
1:07:13
hear. Thank you for the insult.
1:07:14
But where the fuck do you think that logic and rationality comes
1:07:19
from? Do you even know what logic and
1:07:21
rationality is? And if you do know what it is,
1:07:24
how did it come into play? How did such a word and its
1:07:28
definition come into existence? What variable in the environment
1:07:33
created such a concept? Let's get.
1:07:37
Going What was it that happened in evolution that makes you
1:07:43
somehow think that your monkey blood and monkey DNA and juices
1:07:47
are your fucking lizard? Part of the brain is somehow
1:07:50
better than the next dumb animal standing right next to you?
1:07:55
Why is it that someone who thinks that their life has no
1:07:58
meaning or purpose, Do you notice that?
1:08:03
Have you noticed that when looking at atheists as well as
1:08:06
looking at transgenders and looking at these different
1:08:08
groups out there who are usually against God, they're the first
1:08:13
ones to suggest that suicide is the solution?
1:08:18
They're always ready for a government that's about anarchy,
1:08:22
to let them do whatever the fuck they want, from stealing to
1:08:25
killing to destroying. And in the end, they actually
1:08:30
somehow see themselves as morally superior and more
1:08:34
intelligent than everybody around them.
1:08:36
Why is it that stupid people always think that they're more
1:08:39
smarter than other people? And why is it that it
1:08:43
consistently shows that people like this who are pathetic
1:08:48
fucking bottomless slugs tend to be the most narcissistic, where
1:08:54
they think that everything about them is more important than
1:08:57
everybody else? I can't tell you how many times
1:09:01
I've seen transgenders fight each other as well as atheists
1:09:05
fighting each other, and then they have the audacity to say,
1:09:08
well, you Christians disagree with each other and fight.
1:09:12
There's a difference between having a disagreement with
1:09:15
another person who just happens to be in your club or your
1:09:19
group, right? And then there's another
1:09:22
difference where you try to tear their self esteem down and tear
1:09:26
down their identity, Tear down them as a person emotionally and
1:09:31
mentally and physically right? If two religious people find
1:09:36
themselves in a room together and they're arguing about is
1:09:39
Jesus God or is he's a son of God, Are we under the
1:09:42
commandments and all this and they start getting loud about
1:09:44
it? There's a big fucking difference
1:09:47
between that type of behavior and wanting to slip the other
1:09:52
person's fucking throat simply because they have a different
1:09:56
version of atheism than you, right?
1:09:59
I don't know. I am I fucking crazy for
1:10:01
thinking that way. But there's a difference between
1:10:05
an adult disagreement or degree to not agree type of deal over
1:10:10
that of somebody who fucking absolutely won't become friends
1:10:13
with you, won't respect you, won't want to hang out with you
1:10:17
unless you think exactly as a carbon copy like they do.
1:10:22
Isn't that weird? Yeah, it is.
1:10:37
It's it's very weird, isn't it? Oh goodness.
1:10:48
Eating sausage pizza over here. You know, if I were to ask you
1:11:14
all right now, why is it that when someone dies that you know,
1:11:21
that you've met, that you've spent a lot of time with?
1:11:25
Why is it that you go to a funeral and you cry?
1:11:28
Why do you look down at the body of that person that you remember
1:11:33
having experiences with and feel so fucking bad and terrible?
1:11:38
Some of you will cry. Some of you will get sick to
1:11:41
your stomach. Some of you will wish that you
1:11:44
could join them wherever they went at that point, I think.
1:11:48
You can go now. I want you to ask yourself
1:11:52
something, and why not? If there isn't a God that coded
1:11:57
compassion, sympathy and love inside of you.
1:12:01
Do you believe that love and that compassion, that sympathy,
1:12:06
that loss, comes from the environment?
1:12:12
Do you think that the dirt beneath your feet, the wind and
1:12:16
your hair, the gravity that holds you down, the variables of
1:12:24
the environment when chemistry hits, chemistry somehow made
1:12:28
that happen for you? Those experiences, those that
1:12:33
qualia that feeling whenever you see someone you love create
1:12:40
something beautiful and you remember that in your brain.
1:12:46
Have you ever wondered where the fuck is that information stored?
1:12:50
It's almost like you're a projector, isn't it?
1:12:53
Like you're you're able to rewind the the information in
1:12:57
your head and relive it. There's a lot of people that
1:13:01
sometimes rewind their future and go back into the past and
1:13:07
then go on living in their past. They rather live in the
1:13:10
experience that they that's already come and gone as opposed
1:13:16
to move forward. Where the fuck does that come
1:13:21
from? Can anybody explain to me what
1:13:25
happened in the environment or what happened to your monkey
1:13:28
brain to cause you to give a fuck about what's going on
1:13:31
around you in the jungle? What does it matter?
1:13:37
Do you think that whenever a fucking ape sees another ape
1:13:42
that had hung out with or even had made it with, that ape goes
1:13:46
off and gets destroyed? How long will the ape feel bad
1:13:49
about it? And if it does feel bad about
1:13:53
it, why does it feel bad? What about bananas?
1:13:56
And eating fucking lice off of your own hair causes you to be
1:14:01
able to experience joy and happiness, or even the desire to
1:14:07
mourn your dead. This might come off really dirty
1:14:20
and weird, but I often wonder why a duck, whenever it's
1:14:24
walking around a pond and it finds another animal that's
1:14:28
dead. Perhaps another dead duck?
1:14:30
What the hell is going through its fucking head that makes it
1:14:33
think it's a good idea to hop up on that dead duck and fuck it
1:14:39
like a necrophiliac? Why would it do that?
1:14:44
What's going on in this fucking duck brain that makes it want to
1:14:47
do that? All right, ladies and gentlemen,
1:14:58
my name is Brett Keene and you've been enjoying my show.
1:15:03
I'll be doing some more live streams in the future and we
1:15:06
will philosophize and talk and all that shit.
1:15:09
Cool, huh? All right.
1:15:14
Hope you enjoyed.
