Justin Brierley's Unbelievable Ignorance (Part 4) @PremierUnbelievable
Channel: Venaloid
Date: 2022-02-20

Justin Brierley is a Christian radio host who has been talking to atheists for 10 years, but he doesn't really seem to have been listening; his arguments are no different from, and no more nuanced than, those of any other apologist, and I'd like to expose this disappointing fact. 

In this video, I will examine Justin's idea that God is the best explanation for what he calls "human purpose": the feeling of wanting "more" in some sense, which he argues can only exist if there is some kind of god who gave it to us, or if there is some kind of "other world" which satisfies this desire. 

This video is part of a four-part series, wherein each part discusses one topic from Justin's talk.
Part 1: Christianity vs Naturalism, and what makes a good explanation
Part 2: Human Existence
Part 3: Human Value
Part 4: Human Purpose
