Wait... I didn't see that. Which host? Matt Dillahunty? I know he used to be a christian... You can't be a christian and an atheist simultaneously... It doesn't work that way. They are mutually exclusive.


Argue with him at that one tho, he has explained it many times, and yes I was referring to Matt.

Show me your source please. I'm almost 100% sure Matt Dillahunty does not identify as christian.

I'll have to find one of the videos where he talks about it briefly, its not a major talking point in any video, it was one of his shows, and live on twitch where I saw him talk about why he identifies as a Christian. I will look for it, is going to take forever to find so if anyone else has seen this I would appreciate you linking it if you find it before I do.

I would say that it would be a pretty big thing... Just anything at all. If he's explained it 'many times' it shouldn't be hard - the guy has quite a following.

You know - that's if you're not talking out of your arse to try and back up your ridiculous claim that someone can somehow be a christian and an atheist simultaneously.

He said he was an atheist who half believed in god and half didn't who was also a christian who believes god is a man made creation. Ffs Voyaging cant you at least try to keep up? The man's trying to make a point.


Sorry the line of thought lost me :rofl:

Self identifying as a christian ≠ being a christian


Actually aren't those exactly equivalent?

Idk, perhaps you're using Christianity differently than I am, but at its core Christianity is a belief system. If you're raised Christian and renounce your faith, you aren't a Christian anymore, not like it is with Jews for example, as for many it is their ethnic heritage.

Claiming to be something, in completely backwards and contradictory fashion ≠ to actually being apart of whatever it is you claim

Nope he def talked about it, and even if I can't find it I can ask him next time he is streaming on twitch and record it, but I'm going to see if I can find it, its not that easy to find a subject spoken about for a few minutes in countless 20-60 minute videos.

Well even just someone else referencing that he said he 'identifies as christian'. Pretty sure it would be a big thing to be honest... Especially considering he only recently took place in a radio debate entitled 'Why I'm not a christian'.

Or you could quit now and try to save some face by admitting you were wrong and apologising...

Reels him in,

reels him in too, got two catches with that one.

Its funny how dense some of you are when you are angry someone is going against your belief, I find it comical that the average christian is so insecure they feel the need to bring there religion into gaming forums.


I'm an atheist, you derpshit.
