This should be interesting. "There is a God!" "How do you know?" "The Scriptures told me so." "That's it?" "I have faith it is." 'You don't need evidence?" "We don't need no stinkin evidence with faith." End of debate.
Any links yet online to the debate? After-debate was all I could find

I feel bad for myself that I'm actually going to suffer through this.
I am currently still watching it. It's good. Matt takes Sye to task. It is incredible how Matt maintains his cool.
The aftershow is also worth listening to.

It's not a fair debate. Matt is using reason to argue with an obvious mental case. Anyone can see that Sye is fucking retarded.
Usually in these debates people are respectful of both sides. Even when William Lane Craig or the like make a bad argument, nobody laughs at them. But people just couldn't help but laugh at Sye.
That was brutal.
I haven't watched this debate, but I've often wondered why a guy like Matt has spent so much time on a local cable access channel. He should probably be on the national stage. Well, maybe he's getting there.

To be fair, several times throughout this interaction I got the distinct feeling that there was definitely a little bit of mob mentality going on with the audience.
To be fair, if Sye had said "Pi is exactly three" it would have got the same reaction from the audience.
Right, but I'm talking about instances when it wasn't necessarily warranted. I remember Matt interjected at least twice, to the tune of "hang on, let him answer" or something along those lines.
