0:00.0 | Comedy is pretty subjective, but in today's episode, we're going to refute the objective nonsense peddled by comedians who just want to ridicule or try to refute the faith. |
0:09.2 | Now, there's nothing wrong with poking fun at Christian culture. |
0:12.3 | Before they got involved in politics, the Babylon B primarily made fun of modern evangelicalism. |
0:17.7 | But these comedians we're going to talk about today aren't even trying to be funny. |
0:21.6 | They just want to attack Christianity under the guise of comedy. And so we're going to point out |
0:26.0 | what's wrong with their laughably bad arguments. First, here's Sarah Silverman. |
0:30.7 | Christianity is super old, but it's crazy. I mean, it's, you're born a sinner. |

1:29.1 | Many of these critics will just offer an arbitrary standard of a good person, or someone as good as them, |
1:34.6 | which I refuted in my previous episode on the one fallacy that sends most people to hell. |
1:39.6 | The self-serving nature of the good person standard is evident in Silverman's case, |
