Here is my final say on that Habermas video. If I were to have him as a speaker in any college class I was attending, one of two things would happen:
The same goes for me having to listen to a jack ass spew his mind diarrhea on my computer. I try keep my computer clean by obeying the Third Commandment of Forum Reading. And I damn sure ain't going to break the Thirteenth Commandment by having a jack ass spew his mind diarrhea on it. As said, the longest I can listen to any Apologist is 10 minutes before I LITERALLY start having a powerful urge to empty the contents of my stomach. The only time I can listen longer is if it is a debate.
Ever seen Sean Carroll debate William Lane Craig? Since you are a Religious Absolutist, I suggest you not watch it. Sean Carroll totally, absolutely, completely, utterly dismantled and destroyed and annihilated William Lane Craig. I guarantee WLC ain't been able to sit down since.
And why can't the Apologists get their shit under 10 minutes? Because they have such a huge pile of bullshit to restir and sprinkle with sugar and honey. The only problem is that this only works on other Religious Absolutists since they are also so full of bullshit, they cannot smell the bullshit any longer.

EDIT: and see how I made sure I spelled the names correctly? I even had to a search to make sure if Carroll was spelled with one or two "Ls". and do not comment that I am perfect. I am far from it...
@ mailman (if you ever come back)
Posted this in a wrong thread, but it also fit there.
Hell, mailman, let's look at what you thought were The Ten Commandments: Exodus 20:3-17.
[1st] {3} “You shall have no other gods before me.”
Why not? However I could care less. I refuse to accept any person's claim of ANY deity. Claim away. All I have to say is, "I do not believe you." And the Burden of Proof becomes yours. Onus probandi incumbit ei qui dicit non ei qui negat. Latin for “He who says he does not have the burden of proof lies.”
[2nd] {4} “You shall not make for yourselves an idol, nor any image of anything that is in the heavens above, or that is in the earth beneath, or that is in the water under the earth: {5} you shall not bow yourself down to them, nor serve them, for I, Yahweh your God, am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers on the children, on the third and on the fourth generation of those who hate me, {6} and showing loving kindness to thousands of those who love me and keep my commandments.”
Yet Christians possess more idols than any other person. Look at all those damned crosses you wear around your neck. Those "Mary" candles the Catholic Latinos are always buying. Look at those idols within your churches. When it comes to idol worship, you Christians take the cake...
[3rd] {7} “You shall not misuse the name of Yahweh your God, for Yahweh will not hold him guiltless who misuses his name.”
I ain't never heard anyone ever say "Yahweh this" or "Yahweh that". All I've ever heard is "god" damnit. Ain't no one ever ever misued his name. Besides Yahweh is not a name. The Tetragrammaton (יהוה (YHWH)) is a only a descriptive statement: "I AM WHO I AM." The Christian's deity's name is Jealous! Exodus 34:14 “For thou shalt worship no other God: for the LORD, whose name is "Jealous", is a jealous God.” Any person can say the same. "I AM WHO I AM and my Screen Name is Arakish." The Christian deity says, "I AM WHO I AM and my name is Jealous." To hell with your god damned god.
[4th] {8} “Remember the Sabbath day, to keep it holy. {9} You shall labor six days, and do all your work, {10} but the seventh day is a Sabbath to Yahweh your God. You shall not do any work in it, you, nor your son, nor your daughter, your male servant, nor your female servant, nor your livestock, nor your stranger who is within your gates; {11} for in six days Yahweh made heaven and earth, the sea, and all that is in them, and rested the seventh day; therefore Yahweh blessed the Sabbath day, and made it holy.”
Why should I remember the day your deity pooped out and had to rest, and hold it to be holy? I am more powerful than the Christian deity. There was once when I had to work 34 straight days with NO day off. And about a third of those days I had to work double shifts. Yet your deity is pooped after only 6 days. "What a maroon," as Bugs Bunny would say.
[5th] {12} “Honor your father and your mother, that your days may be long in the land which Yahweh your God gives you.”
This goes without saying. Don't need any stupid retarded "commandment."
[6th] {13} “You shall not murder.”
Yet Christians have murdered more people than ANY other ideology EVER.
[7th] {14} “You shall not commit adultery.”
Yet more Christian marriages fail due to infidelity than any other reason.
[8th] {15} “You shall not steal.”
Christians have stolen more than ANY other ideology EVER. Just look in the vaults of the Vatican, if they let you. Hell, look at the Vatican itself. All those treasures they have stolen, then show off the fact by hanging and placing them all over the place. Talk about arrogance.
[9th] {16} “You shall not give false testimony against your neighbor.”
Yet more Christians are more than ready to lie about their neighbor than any other persons, especially if they have a different ideology.
[10th] {17} “You shall not covet your neighbor’s house. You shall not covet your neighbor’s wife, nor his male servant, nor his female servant, nor his ox, nor his donkey, nor anything that is your neighbor’s.”
Yet, look at who covets more treasures than a Christian. No one.
