Top 10 BAD Arguments Against the Transcendental Argument for God

We often hear the same objections to TAG based on similar mistakes.  A year ago I did a specific stream presenting TAG and why it holds up against TANG found here.

TENET (2020) Film EXPLAINED – Jay Dyer


The movie is palindrome. It’s also Back to the Memento Inception Future Part 2. In this analysis I cover the secret meaning and subtle twilight language Nolan couched within, relating to oligarchs, the new Cold War, alternate dimensions and other hot sci fi ingredients. I give this movie 2.5 Flava Flav clocks out of 5. This movie lacks the 1.21 gigawatt needed for a time travel conundrum.

Philosophy, Universals & Divine Conceptualism: Feser, Aristotle & Augustine (Half)


Today I will be taking Dr. Feser’s Five Proofs book and analyzing the pros and cons.  I will start with the chapter “Augustinian Proofs” since it comes the closest to the transcendental argument for God, as well as looking at other works about the inadequacy of bare monotheism, St Basil Vs Aristotle’s “great architect of the universe god” and thus no natural theology in the Thomistic sense, as well as some rejoinders to these problems from St. Maximos, as well as Q n A and super chats.  The full lecture is for paid subs to JaysAnalysis.

Atheists are now arguing that informal fallacies are valid arguments, so feel free to now use nothing but ad hominems, since informal fallacies are valid arguments. “What is the justification for knowledge, ethics, and metaphysics in your worldview.”
Atheist Reply: the single mocule dimension isn’t a contradiction.
This hilarious low IQ reply wasn’t a coherent counter example, argument or justification.
