Debate with a guy who thinks UFOs are a sign of Satan

Post by chitoryu12 »

The video is "UFO In FSX? AMAZING Footage!!", which depicts a UFO at Area 51 in Microsoft Flight Simulator X. I noticed a guy named fatfredzo made a comment here.
GEEWIZZ dosen't any one ask why there are so many camera views of this plane? SATAN isa fallen angelthat can transform hisself into an angel of light. He has decieved the world into believing he dosen't exost. but now this is just more deception. UFO"s started to show up right after Isreal got thier land back in 1948. read your bible
In other words, he said that the "alien spacecraft" are signs of Satan's anger at Israel. I responded with:
So UFOs are signs of Satan? Goddamn creationists taking a text made hundreds of years ago as truth...
Basic stuff, right? Easy to understand, right? Not to this guy!
thats funny ypou said god damn but you don't like him so you use his name to damn me . that s funny. if you read the text you'd change your mind as to how you damn things , but youll figure that out as you evolve right?
He turned my response to "I hate God and because I evolve, I'll become smarter! LOLZ!1". Eh? My response?
You honestly have made absolutely no attempt to read ANYTHING on evolution, have you? I've read the Bible practically front to back. And I never said I hate God. I just don't believe in Christianity. However, I loathe people who refuse to read up on evolution and then tout it as false.
He remains a blathering idiot who can't spell properly.
so you too assume that i'm not learned on evolution? funny well im very well studied on the falsehood and find it absoultely a joke that any thing human could believe such a theroy
And my way of defending this "theroy" was:
You find it a joke that it could take millions, if not billions, of years for creatures to change in order to adapt to new enviornments? Adaptation is a common sense concept. Evolution is simply the continuation of that concept over a long period of time. How is it a joke?
Now, I understand if I may have gotten the basic concept of evolution wrong, but I'm just working off what I know and have inferred of it. Have fun creating your own responses to it. If you find the video on YouTube, feel free to respond to the debate yourself.

It doesn't take millions of years to change.... Neither do speciation require millions of years..... Just something to head off further nonsense.

The problem with arguing science is this.

Dumb it down enough that they can understand it, and they twist and find loopholes to say you're wrong.

Attempt to explain it to the best of your own, meager scientific comprehension, and they think you're bullshitting them as "That isn't evolution" or some other form of attack.

Ah. Thank you for that bit of knowledge.

I still haven't gotten the hang of this topic of debate. The most I've had before this was a girl who thought that according to evolution, every primate should have become a human at the same time.

I wouldn't be too shocked at anything he has to say. Take a pause and think for a second, the guy thinks that UFO's are from Satan. Where do you even start with that...

Recycle him?

Seriously, this guy is far too far gone to try and change his mind through debate. There isn't any point in trying to explain evolution to this delusional fundamentalist moron, you just won't get through.

Far too much time on their hands.

Seriously, that argument was doomed before you started it. You don't need our help to develop your debating style, you need to start from scratch and try to identify which people are worth debating and which people would be a waste of time as they barely reach the intelligence of an amoeba.

I know of very few fundies who even believe in UFOs (Too much "science" invovled in that, and besides God would never let us pollute other beings with Sin), let alone attribute them to Satan.

Well, cliché aliens DO engage in anal probing...

Jokes aside, I too agree that "debating" this funfie will get the OP nowhere.

Yes but I don't see anyone campaigning on school boards to change the public school curriculum to include "Satanic UFO Theory."

Then again, Intelligent Design seemed pretty far fetched a few years ago, too, so I guess it's best not to take any chances.

I find it more fun to watch his responses. I want to see how far he goes before he starts going all fire & brimstone and quoting scripture. Of course, it's hardly as bad as my best friend's mother. She went from "Jesus wouldn't do that," when her kids wouldn't clean their rooms to "God will strike you down!". Now she's one of those people who honestly believe that Jesus was perfect and completely without sin or wrongdoing, and that if she goes to church four days a week her house will magically fix itself.

It makes a bent sort of sense, if you buy the basic fundie view of the world ( which of course is batshit insane in itself ); I understand it's not that odd a belief among them. They think that we, and we alone were made in the image of God; therefore anything both nonhuman and intelligent has to be demonic. If there are alien races, they must be demons or other servants of Satan.

Really, it's another aspect of the extreme black-and-white view of the universe these people have; you are either exactly like them, or a servant of Satan. Nobody's just different, nobody just disagrees with them. Some of them don't even think that other people are mistaken; if you disagree with them, you are knowingly choosing to serve Satan; the rightness of their beliefs is so "obvious" that you can't honestly disagree with them.

Rather like hardline Marxists/Communists; some of them called disagreement with them "false consciousness", and in places like the USSR stuck those who disagreed with them in mental institutions to "cure" them. Rather like those camps where they force gay kids to pretend to be straight, if you think about it.

Of course not, but it has the "virtue" of being original, and lacks the possible excuse of indoctrination a Biblically sound insane proposal would have.

"The Devil done sent dem UFOs to probe me" ( :lol: ) is something this guy is coming up with all on his own...

That's because UFOs aren't part of science, so they don't have any need to explain it away. If and when there is evidence for extra-terrestrials, then you will have tons of these loons screaming they are satanic, and other tons trying to sound scientific while saying the same thing. For now, most of them point to science when it comes to UFOs, but that doesn't mean they will not do a U-turn once that science starts to disagree with their world-view.

Yes, I have encountered these lunatics before. You debate them for the entertainment value, because they only offer reversed target practice (because of the low standard, you will get stupider if you try to debate them rationally).

He responded again. This time, he's gotten even crazier.
OH wait i'm sorry you said you 've read the bible practiaclly front to back. so you haven't taken 72 hours to read the whole bible? yet you have come to a conclusion about christianity. YEp you eveloved alright .Well i'll have to make my self easier to understand so your primative mind can hear what i'm signing with my cave paintings.
Yep. Now he thinks that people who aren't Christian and don't think UFOs are evil are "primative". Now even I'm questioning my judgement in talking to this guy. Of course, I had to respond.
You're simply assuming that you're right because you're a Christian and I'm not. You also need to make yourself easier to understand because your pathetic English is making my eyes bleed. You have not come to any conclusions about evolution. I may not have made my point yet, but neither have you.
Standard hypocritical fundie babble. I seem to recall a good number of short-lived debaters on this site who tried to claim that they made their point already, when they hadn't, simply as an excuse not to argue.

Maybe the members of this board should focus all of our distaste of these kind of people until that hatred manifests into a large beat-stick that we can use to put some sense into these people.

You know, unless you've left key points of this discussion out (and I doubt that, given this guy's MO), you're basically arguing with someone who is incapable of forming a properly spelled, properly structured sentence, let alone able to stay on topic and deal with a single point you've come up with however weak or strong it may be. This is a classic ad hominem with no substance whatsoever. You can see the guy is drooling on his keyboard from the way he writes.

Usually I try to restrict any debates I am forced to have with those who at least make the effort to show that they have a functioning brain. This guy's answer to everything is "I'm a Christian so I win". I'm not sure what your goal is at this point, unless there is an audience reading your postings that you hope to sway.

A) Nail the SOB on how he changed the subject
B) Demand he demonstrate his claimed education on evolution since we all know he's lying and his "study" of evolution was nothing more than reading creationist pamphlets, reading creationist webpages and listening to his preacher.

I would, but now he's got a friend! Agent00228 has responded in place of him, making me wonder if it's a friend, sockpuppet, or related only in arguement.
I'v seen crack pot's like u. U stupid foreners, trying to make a name for yourself. "Evolution"
U try to understand the world like your dominate.
Have'nt U ever wondered? "What if I'm wrong?"
Of course ur not going to think that u shallow piece of crap.
If U want to be right, get rid of ur peanut and get a mind!
Yes, evolution is a "foren" concept, not in any way proven by science! And only a shallow piece of crap could ever spend months on evolution and finally decide that it's correct! So, I follow up with:
I haven't wondered that I'm wrong because I've read up on my subject. I've done experiments and checked conflicting arguements, which were later disproven. All the religious bigots have done is read the basic concept, turned it into a simplified, yet wrong, form, and struck it down while touting their text as truth.
I was telling the truth. I not only did evolution in class, but I also read up on it in my spare time to validate some concepts.

So, the polls are out. Is this guy a sockpuppet, friend, or unrelated?
