You mentioned you play videogames ? In which case , any thoughts on Gamergate? or is that a debate that you'd rather not want to jump in as of now ?

Gamergate has evolved into a bit of a mess and has been hijacked by people who want to control the dialogue.

Where would you fit on an egalitarian spectrum of Equality of Opportunity vs Equality of Outcome?

Opportunity.
Saying (for example) "there aren't enough (blank) CEOs so we should hire more (blank) CEOs to make things equal is a bad idea. We will end up with under qualified people in positions they didn't deserve, and for what; to pander to people?
I'm for improving education, improving opportunities and and looking at every candidate for every position as a raceless, genderless, non-sexual-preference having blank-slat and let the best people prove themselves to be the best.

Have you ever had another channel you used for making videos? (not Armoured media)

Yes. I had one when I was xtian and it was terrible.

1) Ever considered guest staring on the drunken peasants? They said that you need to contact them first. 2) Boobs or buts? (The most intellectuality taxing question in the world, I know)

Yeah, I've considered it.
I'm not sure when, but I'm sure I'll make time to hang out with them.

You make me really happy every time I see a new video of yours! I don't have a question, i just wanted to say thanks for making videos. Have a good day! :)

Shanksh!!!!!

So I have this problem where whenever someone realizes I'm an Atheist, they have to save my soul. I thought it to just be funny at first, but now it's getting a little annoying. They continue and persist with the famous arguments we all heard 1000 times. What is the easiest way to be left alone? xD

If you don't know this person, answer: "Walk away."
If you do know this person and you need to tolerate him/her at work or something, answer: "No thank you."
If you are friends or family, answer: "Aw, I really appreciate this gesture, but I've made up my mind."
It doesn't matter if you know or do not know if you believe or do not believe, you just have to know you doooooooon't want to talk about it.

You've said you record yourself "as you watch for the first time"; but whenever I stumble upon this stuff, my first response is just anger. The ignorant, self-righteous arrogance is infuriating. Are you just less irascible than me, or is there a trick to keeping calm in the face of such ignorance?

To be honest, I just find this level of ignorance amusing. Yes, sometimes I get angry, but for the mist part I have to hold back laughter.

Ex-Muslim, atheist, huge fan. I realize debating Christians is more relevant to you, being in a Christian-majority continent, but I think you'd do the world a favor if you debated Muslims, too. Islam is largely unopposed for obvious, life-threatening reasons, but more people have to stand up to it.

I do plan on it... but not until I feel confident with my knowledge of the Q'uran

Do you agree that every Christian should follow the Old Testament as well as the New Testament because if they were to not follow the Old Testament then they aren't even following their own text? Such as killing homosexuals, wearing different fabrics, etc.

No. I prefer the Xtians that don't follow the old-test.
I think, however, if they are going to tell us that we have to live by the bible that we should be able to show that they fail to do it themselves.

What other jobs have you considered besides becoming a youtuber?

My background is in film-making and study, so making films AND being a film critic would be my dream.
That and being a helicopter pilot.

What was the worst debate you have ever had with a religious person and who were they?

God Rules, because he didn't acknowledge a single thing I said. It was totally a 1-was conversation.

What mic mic and pop filter do you use to capture the audio for your videos?

I use a Yeti compression mic with a generic pop filter.

I have seen the "ancient alien" debunking video by VerseByVerseBT. It is a pretty good and articulate deconstruction of ancient aliens stupid claims. But... VerseByVerseBT also makes some very stupid apologetics video. How can someone be so skeptic of some claims and yet totaly gullible about others

VBV isn't a skeptic.
everyone is skeptical of different stuff, but not everyone is a real skeptic.

Why are do smart religous people seem so idiotic when you try to reason with them?

Because deep down they know it's impossible to prove.

What games do you play?

All sorts of games.
MMOs are my fave, though the ones that have been released recently are boring.
Real Time Strategy is my second fave.
Fighting games are good. The more reflex needed the better.
After that I like to unwind with some mindless brawlers or even the occasional shooter.

Do you think the day that we are without religion close? like in the next 100 years we will cure ourselfs of these primitive ways of thinking.. not fully ... but at least they becoming the minority

No. It will never happen.

Do you think that a lot of Christians give bad info from research because they only do bias research and by doing so they go through all the proof/things that support of evolution(for example) till they find "proof" that its not fact or search something like "facts that disprove evolution"? thanks.

Absolutely.
I would say that the vast majority of those I debunk have a preconceived notion of how the universe works and they try to bend facts and figures in a way that fits that preconception.

Do you think it a rather logical idea concept, as far as most Religions go. That someone who claims a belief in Atheist Naturist. Meaning you practice a sense of Magick, by worshipping Nature itself and working with it for everyday use. But not believing in any Deity involved?

The philosophy in most religions is usually quite interesting and enlightening, but the practice of religion and the worship aspect seems quit illogical to me.

Are the backgrounds in your videos just random or do they have some kind of symbolism corresponding to the video itself?

Just cool loops I found for fun.
Sometimes I use certain loops depending on the subject matter, or I'll re-use one to debunk the same person a second time, but there is no real pattern, no.
