Greg Koukl of Stand to Reason explains how to rephrase the question that stops Christians in their tracks... in order to trick his interlocutor into the Kingdom, presumably. And Paulogia explains how to avoid the traps the Koukl and his disciples are trying to lay in plain sight.

And this is how children who had a fight with their sibling confess this terrible sin to the holy Catholic priests who molest children. I'm pretty sure the way these creeps justify it is by saying "all sin is equal before God" and hey when we get to heaven God will heal all suffering so I guess it's ok to be a monster because everything is about the next life anyway. 🤮 (That argument about this life being meaningless and only the next life counting is what I hear from Christians all the time).

@@skwills1629 Are you really sure? If he's worried about "giving the wrong impression" by giving the "correct answer" to the question, then what does that say to you? Especially when he then says "Here's how to avoid giving that answer by asking ambiguous questions with unclear terms that will trick you into saying what I want you to say." There's a problem here, and I don't think it's the viewpoint of the atheist that is the issue. I listen to his words and examine the meaning (as Paul demonstrates in the video), and something definitely doesn't add up. This isn't a "bias", nor is it to "make him look bad". It's just looking at the meaning of the words and the intent behind them. If an atheist did the same thing, I'd call them out too. It's not about making the other side look bad, it's about having an intellectually honest discussion. What meaning I "want" there to be doesn't matter. What matters is the meaning and intent behind the words, and I sense intellectually dishonest and disingenuous intent to dodge a question that should be a simple "yes" or "no" answer. Both sides of this discussion through the ages are guilty of "twisting words". Some atheists I know twist the words of Christians, and Christians I know twist the words of atheists. It's up to everyone to keep everyone else honest, otherwise the discourse falls to petty bickering and name-calling instead of an honest discussion where both sides present arguments based on evidence, which both sides discuss said evidence.

The teacher, who was a the psych teacher, told my classmate that maybe she should keep her opinion on something no one can know for sure to herself since it wasn't helpful to those grieving.

I usually say "You are just changing the subject because you can't answer it to any satisfactory way...that's OK, if you need to do that we'll do that" it means you are highlighting that your arguments won the previous point unless they want to stop changing course and go back on track... In which case, they can't avoid the reasoning. Sucks that people are often automatically disengenous enough to favor ignorance, but C'est la vie. "Let's move on to a new strand because your argument lost in that previous strand" often comes of as less "mean" than nagging then into staying on a topic that is hurting their heads with cognitive dissonance. Remember to jot down the points moved away from because ignorance and forgetting are a coping mechanism to keep our previous biases.

If You say "Stop dodging the Question, I;m not going o let You change the subject, Answer Me":, You will be confirming that You are only concerned Attacking Him, and His Beliefs, and that You simply wish to find an excuse to use to Claim He is Evil. He did not Dodge the Question. Nor is He changing the Subject. Its not like Someone Asked Him Why We need Jesus to be Saved and if We go to Hell if not Christian only for Him to talk about the Moon Landing. You did not, of course, listen to what Koulk actually said. You didn't even pay attention completely to Pastor Paulogia of The Atheist Religion You follow. (And yes I Know, Atheism is not a Religion yadayadayada...I didn't say it was, but You have made a Religion out of being an Atheist.) Koulk said You do not give a direct Answer, but instead ask them a series of Questions which is then used to gain their admission of how they agree on the acceptance of certain premises, then to have them Draw the Logical Inference from those Premises. He is still discussing the Need of Jesus in Salvation from a Christian Perspective. He is simply allowing the Petitioner to arrive at the COnclusion and hopefully gain an appriciation of why it is so, instead of giving a direct Answer which will be Twisted to beat Him over the Head with. Saying He is Changing the SUbject may fit the Image of how He is DIshonest and is advising other Christians to be Dishonest, but in turn, it is a DIshonest way to depict what He is saying.

We are all influenced by the people and circumstances around us.

Eh then you're not really having an argument anymore, you're just shutting down the conversation without actually engaging (if this is your goal, then sure). If you want to discuss something with someone in good faith you sometimes need to let them take you where they want to go. If they really are wrong, they cant trap you, and you will have every opportunity to point out the problems in their reasoning when they arise. If you from the outset don't even let your opponent try to make a point, this makes your position look weaker, not stronger. The only "positive" outcome from this is you may appear stronger or more correct to someone who isn't really paying attention, including yourself. If you care more about feeling correct than being correct, go right ahead.

I let the "theft" slide because I loved the student, I knew he had been working hard and I saw no real harm in him taking that second cookie. This threw the Christian off balance. It was a true story by the way.

I've been surprised by TikTok's inclusion of a response format. The app also provides greater opportunities for dissenting opinions on all sides, based on the user's individual preference for novelty, gauged by TikTok's machine learning algorithm. Although a content creator can control comments (or turn them off), anyone can create a response video. Responses feel far less like screaming into the wind. They feel more likely to be bubble up in front of the eyeballs of individuals who might be having doubts and are receptive to new perspectives.

Actually its a False Premise.

This is why The Jesuits never told The Native Americans to abandon The Great Spirit, or that The Great SPirit was a false god, and worship The True God, they understood The Great Spirit as the same God, but that The Natives had Limited and Imperfect Understanding of Him. Also, Christianity doesn't Tech that Belief in God is what Saves You. Even in Evangelical Protestantism. In Evangelical Protestantism, it is Trusting in The Sacrifice of Jesus, not simply believing it happened or is Real, but actually Turning Yourself over to Christ, and Repenting of Your Sins, that Saves You. So believing in God doesn't Save You unless You mean Specifically that. Believing God exist doesn't Save You, even believing Christianity is True doesn't Save You. Jesus saves You. While there are some disagreement, al Christians do share the Jesus saves You perspective. So, the uestion You asked is not Really Valid as it is baed on a False Premise.

If You say Yes, it means You use to beat Your Wife, and if You say No, it means You are Continuing to Beat Your Wife. Or at least these are assumed to be so by the way The Question is Phrased. And what Kaukl said is ow Other Sites suggest You Handle this Situation. You see it as some sort of Evil merely because he is Christian. Not because his Advice was bad or Admitted Christianity was Awful. The Irony is, pastor Paulogia's Hate Sermon here is doing exactly what Kaukl is Talking about.

Undesirable when considered rationally. You are going down the wrong path to try to support what you want to support. Appeal to reasons, not emotion.

You assume that crimes are finite and stop once one dies. Since you have yet to experience physical death you don't really know that your sinning will actually terminate with your death. Then locked in perpetual rebellion you would also be under perpetual punishment. Since you do not KNOW that this will not be the case, it is better by far to receive Christ as Lord and savior forever. Or look at it this way. If you die and are in a realm in which you know Christ's final judgment is coming, you may be compelled to cast your lot in for the one who is opposing Christ at every turn so that He will not return - Satan the Devil. How do you know that you won't die and find yourself rooting for God's perpetual enemy - the Devil? Being in Satan's corner hoping for Satan's success to stale and postpone Christ, you will share Satan's miserable eternal destiny. It is better to receive Christ immediately NOW as Lord and Savior forever.

But, this itself is a Lie, and is in the Description. Kaolk is not setting a Trap, He is giving advise on How Christians can Handle those who seek to Trap them. Pastor Paulogia is reversing the Situation as if this is an Evangelistic Method, and Kaulk is saying Christians should use this to Win Converts. In the Video He claims Kaolk dodges the Question and avoids Answering it. This is a Lie. He does Answer it. He simply Answers it in a Manner that is designed to diffuse Hostility by deescalation. Instead of giving a Direct Answer to a Confrontational Person who came to Attack you with Your Answer, You can instead ask them a series of Questions to establish a Common Ground of Understanding and which allows them to understand the Concept in Question, such as why Jesus is needed for Salvation in Christian Thought, without causing them to simply reject it out of Hand and Creating a Confrontational Situation. Direct Answers are not Always complete Answers, as to fully Understand some Ideas One must First also Understand what they are based on. If Someone is not Interested in Actually Understanding an Idea but simply wishes to Find Ammunition to Fire at a Rival, Asking a Direct Question can be done in the Hopes that the Answer can then be Used to support a Narrative of how Wrong or Evil someone is or their belief is. We see this all the Time in Politics. A Political Actor will Ask a Politicial a Direct Question, and then when the Politician Answers it, siezes on the Answer, and Spins it in order to discredit or VIllify the Politician by Framing it in a way that will fit His Constituents Frame Of Mind and Baee of Understanding.

First of all, I've never done anything bad enough to warrant any punishment remotely that severe. I can't imagine any situation in which I could do anything bad enough to deserve eternal torture. Second, who's to say I haven't already sufficiently paid for the things I've done? When I realize I've made a mistake and behaved in a way that isn't consistent with my values, I rectify it immediately with an apology and then I do my best to make it right again however possible. And third, just because I may feel that justice ought to be fulfilled, there is no evidence that the universe cares one whit about what I think ought to happen.
