I appreciate your interest, and your comments. I will write a new blog post (very soon) in response to your points, because I think they deserve a thoughtful one. I'm glad you respond to these because, as someone who disagrees with the overall point I'm trying to argue, it helps point out flaws or weaknesses in my videos, forcing me to think deeper about this stuff and provide clarification.

You say that theists call the beginning maker/creator god, but you fail to address the FACT that they have the same amount of evidence to support this as the naturalist, NONE. The idea that something un-natural had to create the entire universe is again an appeal to ignorance, nature outside of the universe is not known at present, and therefore cannot be said to lack the mechanism for the universes existence. Always existing universe in no way lacks common sense as opposed to created universe, you are stating an extremely weak opinion in that it is common sense to assume a beginning, not a logical or well defined argument. How does one coming to the conclusion God(s) always existed takes more of a stand to the side of common sense, this is bias, plain and simple it is not common sense. As far as the scientific evidence I think if you ever go back and change the video, you should clarify the expansion of the universe, as from everything I have read, the galaxies do not accelerate, but rather the space between cosmological bodies expands, this is important and should be noted.
