His arguments are full of logical fallacies.

@leewinter28 You didn’t read or understand what Zerv said. Zerv didn’t say there isn’t a god. Zerv said Ben thinks free will is the best argument for a god. In attempting to mock Zerv all you have done is make a bit of goose of yourself and in no way refuted Zervs comment. Try again

@leewinter28 Fair enough, the only problem you now have is that free will is an illusion and Ben is most definitely clever in his use of debating techniques but this is not a means by which you measure intelligence only an expression of the training he has put into debating tactics.

@leewinter28 There is sufficient evidence in the field of cognitive neuroscience that your sense of “free will” is just human consciousness ie brain activity. Absolutely no requirement for a god whatsoever.

@leewinter28 Ben has openly admitted in public his aim in a debate is to humiliate an opponent. He regularly debates junior college students and I can’t count how many times he has used logical fallacies in these debates, but yes apparently he does have an above average IQ.

@leewinter28 If you had just a shred of evidence for your assertion then it might have some weight but unfortunately it doesn’t and is just as easily dismissed. I have no problem with Bens cleverness/intelligence just his character.

@leewinter28 I just haven't seen these debates, all I have seen is rather poor debates where fallacious argument one after the other flows. Admittedly very quickly. It's called a gish gallop and he is very good at it.
