July 22? shit this is awesome, can't wait for TF to post it in the next few days.
The videos are now up.
Ray was obviously out of his depth and wasn't interested in debating Thunderf00t.
He asked some questions to Thunderf00t which TF did well to reply with more than a facepalm. TF had more patience than I would have had having to listen to that moron.
If someone is going to come at you with completely illogical statements and questions what the hell is the point, how can you debate someone when every answer is "God dun it"

I wasn't expecting to se tf00t crush Ray's arguments and make him cry or anything, to be frank the unstructured conversation is where preachers have the advantage, and Ray is an excellent on-the-fly bullshitting snake-oil salesman, I think thunderf00t did well.
It's difficult to have an intelligent conversation when Ray continually tries to divert it into an iceberg of stupidity and facepalm, evolution came up for a grand total of about 5 minutes out of the whole thing, and Ray was trying to change the subject during the whole section.
It is the home-ground for Ray, because for all thunderf00t knows, there's more that he doesn't know, and Ray preys on ignorance, he found a subject thunderf00t wasn't so solid on, and from behind the shield of his unfalsifiable supernatural one-size-fits-all explanation he asked questions and tried his best to lead tf00t down a path of bodged logic to an appeal-to-conseqeunces fallacy.
Plus, Ray can in 5 seconds make up some bullshit, and thunderf00t would have to know it's bullshit, know why it's bullshit and know the correction off the top of his head. It may take an hour to fully debunk what Ray thinks up in 5 seconds.
tbh I think we should applaud thunderf00t for simply keeping a straight face throughout, I know I couldn't.

Whilst TF is a vastly well informed and thoughtful guy, and he puts together some of the best science based videos on YT, live discussion and thinking on the fly to construct snappy arguments aren't his forte, so Ray Comfort came off relatively lightly. I'd love to see someone like Matt Dillahunty have a discussion with Ray - Matt has had years of experience of debating creationists live, and he also has the in-depth knowledge of Biblical dogma that TF had to do a bunch of work to prepare.
