DON'T WATCH THIS VIDEO. I'm serious. This
message isn't a hack (I'm the guy in the video),
and it's not a ploy to get you to actually watch
it (reverse psychology).
It's just that there's a hole in this argument big
enough to drive a Hummer through because of an
assumption I didn't realize I had (isn't that just
the way with assumptions. . .), and the argument
has been UPDATED to address that hole.
So instead of watching this old, tired, hole-y
video, go watch the NEW, IMPROVED version at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mF_anaVcCXg
It's called "How It All Ends," and is backed up by
literally HOURS of "Expansion Pack" videos,
answering every single criticism, objection, "What
If," "How About," and "You Missed a Spot," that I
came across in reading the 7000+ comments (most of
them critical) on various websites about the
argument presented in this "The Most Terrifying
Video You'll Ever See."
So please, DON'T WATCH THIS VIDEO and then make
some comment about Pascal's Wager or how this
argument can be applied to any threat, no matter
how ridiculous. Those, and literally EVERY OTHER
OBJECTION I'VE EVER HEARD are answered in the
bruisingly thorough series of videos backing up
"How It All Ends."
Even though I DON'T WANT YOU TO WATCH THIS VIDEO,
I'm not taking it down, because I'm hoping it (and
the comments attached) will become a small piece
of history, as a precursor to the UNDENIABLE
TOUR-DE-FORCE ARGUMENT that is the "How It All
Ends" video project.
So DON'T WATCH THIS VIDEO (have I made myself
clear?) I'm hoping that it dies a nice, quite,
peaceful death, fading into respected irrelevance.
Instead, go watch the new, up-and-coming "How It
All Ends" at
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mF_anaVcCXg
Once you get there--if you follow the index to the
other videos--I think you'll find that I present
an argument that you CANNOT poke a hole in. I've
spent literally hundreds of hours discussing,
researching, and refining my arguments to ensure
that.
And then, once you're convinced, do everything you
can to spread the message--forward the video,
leave comments, nominate it for awards, agitate
for YouTube and others to feature it, mash it up,
burn DVDs and hand them out like candy--hell, even
record YOURSELF making the arguments, get famous
doing so, and make lots of money--I don't care!
Just get the ideas out there!
So go ahead. Watch "How It All Ends," and its
expansion pack videos, and try to poke a hole in
the argument. I dare you.
I DOUBLE-DOG dare you. (Ooooooo. . . .)
And if you can't, then you may find yourself with
a strong agitation to do something about the
potential threat. In my experience, the only way
to calm that agitation is to act on it. I've got
a video for that, too. ;-)
