Comments by "Sole Doubt" (@sole__doubt) on "Evolutionary biologist says 'it's pretty straightforward' to define what is a woman" video.
"When women weren't allowed to vote.." You mean the good ol days when the country was running like a swiss watch. *edit - I know the watch analogy isnt the best but it gets the point across. ;)

@salsabilahmedshrestho960 the last person I trust about any religious subject is a religious person. Thats known as a conflict of interest. You really thought you made sense with your comment huh? Lol incredible.... :)

@totallyanonymousbish9599 Yes certainly by comparison. Look into essentially any empire in history and you'll see when they allowed women and minorities into positions of power, that empire crumbled soon after. The last one to crumble was the English empire, but it happened to the Egyptians, the Romans, etc.

@salsabilahmedshrestho960 You're a muslim, so the last thing you are objective about is islam. Thats what is known as a conflict of interest my friend. As soon as you say you have "faith" in a religion, you tell everyone that you are no longer able to talk about that religion in an objective way.

@salsabilahmedshrestho960 "Oh so the only person who can objectively advocate for the existence of god should be an atheist?" I didnt say that, but essentially that is an extension I what I'm proposing. If you wanted to get objective news about a football team, who would you go to? A fan or someone who couldnt care less about the team? We both know the fan is NOT going to be nearly as objective as the other guy who doesnt care. Why? Because the fan has a "conflict of interest." :)

@salsabilahmedshrestho960 " Do you even understand how conflict of interest works? someone has to "gain something" to have an conflict of interest." You're gaining your ability to continue your belief system, which religious people, in particular, take extremely seriously. Thats what you are gaining and evidently its important to you. "Secondly, just because someone is inclined towards a view doesn't mean they can't, for the sake of argument, be neutral. That's another, wrong assumption in your part." Your just wrong about this. No on can be neutral, but a religious person is the least objective about religion. I cant believe I even have to mention something so obvious. "That is why I am saying go and look for these kind of people who explain it from a neutral pov. Abdullah al andalusis video about existence of god is argued from the most neutral pov No one is completely neutral its just impossible for any adult human to not have biases and prejudices.

@bobserrano8130 yes indeed. ;)

@lijewy "Wow I've never seen a person using that expression" youve never heard of an anti-theist? "you shouldn't have written 'god/religion' but just 'religion' since you're just then saying that people have some idea of god... therefore it follows that god must exist You can beleive in god without being religious though. Thats why I put both. " I think your assimilation of the two object that are god and religion is flawed" I can live with that. Im only seeking to convey, not convince. "Dismissing anyone's religious knowledge has no impact on anyone's knowledge of god" When the person is religious and uses religious material as evidence, it certainly does have impact. "Also, if god doesn't exist then everyone's knowledge about god is zero" Well I dont know for sure there isnt a god, but until I get evidence that proves it, I have to conclude there is no god. Absence of proof is the best proof I have at the moment. "So everyone is neutral in that regards and anybody subjectivity is as good as anyone" Unfortunately thats not how the world works. "Did you really follow thru your logic, reasoning and rhetoric?" Ive been working on it for the better part of 30 years so thats a yes!

@Tayo O the thing about a comment like yours is that it makes just as much sense if I turn it onto you.
2
@Tayo O " I have no idea what you are saying/implying" You said i need to re read the books I read. I can say the same to you, get it? " If you want to know why those empires fell. Google will help you and it isn't because of women or minorities" Weird how when I went to school we cited books and not a search engine like Google that will do everything in its power to tell us what it (the AI) thinks we want to hear. Especially these days with the way anything even remotely negative about women is seen as hate. You have to read books, and books that arent popular to get the real story on anything.

@shinrapresident7010 even swiss watches malfunction from time to time and require maintenance. The only reason the depression lasted as long as long as it did is because of socialist policies. Socialism is far more popular with women than men.
2
@shinrapresident7010 so you have a problem with the analogy. not the sentiment of my comment?
2
@shinrapresident7010 well I have time, how about you correct me where Im wrong point by point. I'll even concede that my watch analogy was weak, you proved that part. You cant hurt my feelings so dont be shy, I want to be proven wrong I love learning new things. ;)
2
@shinrapresident7010 suit yourself. I just figured when you say someone has "everything wrong" you'd have more to say than criticism over an analogy. Cant say Im shocked though, I rarely get any actual intelligent push back, just assertions and excuses. Have a good one my friend. :)

@shinrapresident7010 "You know when you @ someone on Youtube they get a notification immediately, right?" Of course Im not new to youtube. "So when I come to reply to your comments and it's 21 seconds after a post and your comment already has a like, it's very obvious you are liking your own posts." I wrote the comment so of course I like my own comments. Why wouldnt you like your own comment is my question. "This is no different than a restaurant writing their own reviews and giving themselves ratings." Yes it is if they are doing it under false names. Its completely different. Terrible analogy and I thought you were the analogy police. "You're not looking to learn or have a conversation, you're looking for validation." Another baseless assertion to avoid backing up your own statement on how Im wrong about everything. "The effort needed to refute nonsense is greater than the effort needed to produce said nonsense. Goodbye." But you are the only person spouting nonsense, Ive been completely open and genuine with you. Maybe Ill hear form you when calm down and stop worrying about waht Im doing and just worry about backing up your own words

@rubydragon1034 who doesnt like their own comments? If I didnt like it I wouldnt have written the comment.
2
Maybe someone else can explain to me why liking your own comments is bad. Why would you make a comment if you dont like it?

@ignacioponceladiaz4885 well thats simply not true.
2
@ignacioponceladiaz4885 my first comment on this thread has 98 likes more than any other in the thread.
2
@ignacioponceladiaz4885 the original comment isnt part of the reply thread I guess youre new to youtube. Appeal to popularity is a common logical fallacy that you are engaging in at this moment. You said Im the only one who likes my comments Ive shown that to be false.

@everything5066 "Yet nobody is trying to stop religious people from living their delusional lives" Because religious people arent trying to rearrange society around a tiny minority of people.

@lijewy no im an anti-theist.
2
@lijewy "Never so far... just atheist... but you seem more like an agnostic" I find calling myself an agnostic is a bit of a cop out, Its fence sitting if you will. Im an atheist till I see the proof. "Isn't proof conventions tell that lack of proof leads to suspension of conclusion?" In most circumstance thats certainly true, however with this subject as I said previously, absence of proof is the best proof we have at this moment. "Do you describe yourself as a skeptic or applying skepticism?" Im not exactly sure what the difference is between the two. My family calls me the Eternal Skeptic, so I guess Im simply a skeptic. :)
2
@lijewy "Ever saw Jody Foster movie Contact?" Yes I have, its a bit sappy for me. "Which lead me to question myself about the social moral good of skepticism. What is the good of such attitude as the burden of proof" Thats easy because the truth will set you free and lies should be called out for what they are. I cant believe I have to say that. "You can adopt a burden of proof/skepticism attitude. But how your position would enhance the pursuit of knowledge? Most of the time, the burden of proof/skepticism are held in order to dismiss the new proposition holder" If you make an extraordinary claim, like seeing an alien or a god, you need to back it up with evidence. I dont see how thats in any way unreasonable. Skepticism has never let me down in my 44 years on earth. "If you postulate an atheist point of view then that attitude would lead to other people adopting your point of view if you're right since they'll realize that they're wrong. If they're right and you're wrong then they'll better know so you have better chances to know it yourself too. That's my rationale point of view." Frankly I have no clue what youre getting at here. Try using regular words instead of using the biggest words in some obvious attempt to appear more intelligent. Truly intelligent people can plainly describe their views in a language that anyone can understand, like I do. :)

@jocec3283 Figuring out the answers to the universe is a waste of time? I dont think so my friend.
2
@jocec3283 "You have been working on it for 30 years ???? Gee... You really like to waste your time, dude..." That was your last comment to me that I was replying to. So you indeed did say that, man that was easy to prove. ;)
2
@lijewy "Therefore, the true neutral person has no clue about the object" Exactly, but there is no person who has zero idea about god/religion. Thats exactly why I say there is no truly neutral people on the subject.

"I think your attitude towards knowledge is fruitless" Duly noted, again Im not here to convince Im here to convey. "Most of time people can't conclude to the truth of a single statement, most set of statements are inconsistent" Who said anything about single statements, again we're having a language issue here I guess because that doesnt make sense. "So you're a believer in such thing as truth. It's not unreasonable to be open minded if you seek more knowledge" I am open minded, if you have proof. If Im proven wrong Ill be the first one to admit I was wrong. Again how is it unreasonable to expect evidence? "No wonder you're a self proclaimed anti-theist. Truth seeker and close minded." Call me what you want I truly couldnt care less. "I don't see any differences in behaviour than a religious zealot do you?" Yeah the main difference is that my claims are based on reality and the religious zealots are based on fantasy. How do I know? Theyve had at least 2000 years to come up with one piece of evidence and have not. If you want to call me a truth zealot, I can live with that. :)
