look in our government how the very movies and videogames promote tolerance unity world peace and globalization. independence day halo and section 8 mankind is united against in alien foe and have put aside all differences. look at the communistic laws being passed by the occult in our govnemrent the ndaa which does away with the bill of rights the patriot act the protect ip act. just he other day a law was passed allowing spyplanes to spy on american people .and even in brittain
no different than being brainwashed in to believing there is no god in educaton system in elementary or the very movies music and television we watch brainwashes us. we have had a massive moral decline because of hte illuminati and the new world order. put enough violence sex and and drugs and immoality in peoples lives and they will crave it. hitler also used the radio media and education system to brainwash people. religion isn't the problem people without beliefs morals honor integrity are.
Darryl, have you looked into Buddhism? B/c it asks it's believers to question everything! And not take anything on faith. I think it is one of the religions that is the exception to this "mind control" you talk about. Though they do encourage mediation which could be considered a form of mind control but not manipulation.
@mckohtz Both Buddhism and Hinduism are on my list of things to study in the not-too-distant future - not because I'm looking to find a total worldview within one of them, just to see what might rub off on me from the Eastern schools of thought.
@mckohtz I also have family member individuals who say the same as well. Plus it only makes sense. Almost every religion has an afterlife after death and believers feel they will meet again and their depression and sadness goes down a bit. General sense. It would be very unlikely if it were the other way around.
@malikc6 Do you understand what antidotal means? Antidotal means: not necessarily true or reliable, because based on personal accounts rather than facts or research.
@malikc6 where in my reply did I say it was the opposite of what you said! You are putting words in my mouth. Grief is a complex emotion and process, so you can't point to one aspect of a person and say that is the cause of their prolonged grief.
@malikc6 Sorry to hear about your brothers friend but having no religions in the world i don't think makes us worse.. it's much more complex than that. There's multiple layers to life and for sum they can find it easier being having the personal freedom to find enlightenment and eternal life. If you happen to find that in religious philosophies, more than likely they would mirror the atheists, occultist and intellectuals whom might've influenced the books, since nothing is new under the sun.
@malikc6 Religion is comfort for those who need it.. that is true, but lets be clear their doctrines are all flawed are not any word of God but rather a collection of divinely inspired 'human' thoughts on multiple aspects of life. It is simply placed as poetry and then empassioned people who don't understand artistic value or spirituality always want to make sumthing 'physically real in order to feel it. Atheist are neither worse or better than religious people, i used to think so too.
My other friends brother was killed years ago but he accepted it being believer saying "hes up in heaven. When its my time, we will meet again." He had a shorter depression compared to my atheist friend.
Another thing I wanna add. Despite whatever you feel for religion, believers in my experience recover from depression and sadness faster than non believers. Someone dies, the believer feels that they will meet again in the afterlife and recover. A non believer would think they would never see them again and their depression and sadness is a bit longer. I have a friend who is a atheist and his dad died years ago. Hes 17 and still cant get over it.
@malikc6 My mother, with whom I was very close, died as an unbeliever six years ago. According to Christianity, she's burning in hell now, and the only comfort a Christian can offer me is: "You never know what happened between her and God in her final moments." It's as if everyone gets saved right at the brink. What cruel nonsense Christianity is.
@darrylsloan i am a christian, more specifically a catholic. Yet, i find it better not 2 listen 2 90% of the stuff the church teaches. i do believe that Jesus was sent by God as his only son, died for us, and rose again. I also believe God is the creator of all things. However, i those are the only things the church has taught me that i believe. besides that, all my other beliefs i have come to through personal experience and thoughts. As far as people going to Hell if they don't believe, ignore
@darrylsloan I believe that as long as you are a good person, and you live your life for others, God will bless you with eternal happiness in Heaven. So, jus to give you comfort, i am sure your mom is happier than she has ever been, and is watching down on you :D
Religion isn't something that is effective at fully limiting us, because we still sin to a minor extent, as if religion doesn't exist. We only really start to think about it when that boundary is pushed and/or crossed...
Told not to by religion. If I wanted to sleep with some girl I think is hot but cant because the bible says "before marriage" or moral reasons, thats good. If there was no religion, then people would be acting on their desires and instincts. We would do whatever we want and even though we have our desires, we cant do everything we want. We have to control it and in my opinion, the only thing that can hold us together is religion.
@darrylsloan Well personally I think humans are naturally evil. I believe what Thomas hobbes said. Humans NEED to be controlled. A baby may have a toy. Another baby may have the toy he wants. The baby would most likely try to take it away from the other baby because his desire is the have that toy. If not raised properly or not taught right from wrong, he or she would most likely do this throughout his or her life. I think that from birth, we hold our urgesand would do anything to full fill it
@malikc6 "Well personally I think ..." Not interested in your personal beliefs. Back it up rationally leave. In this comment you're judging what an adult would do as he if were a baby. That's simple-minded. You're also dismissing the fact that a great part of instructing a child involves a child's willingness to teach himself, based on what he hears and experiences.
@darrylsloan What about the desire to be civilised, so we can reap the benefits of a more ordered and safe world?
This was spawn from good morals I bet. If everyone were not taught right from wrong, I guarantee this would never be said. Thats just my opinion. Morality.
Dont get me wrong, I believe what Thomas Hobbes said. We are naturally evil and need to be controlled. This world is already not doing well. At least they know right from wrong. Imagine a world where they didnt in this time...
@malikc6 You "guarantee", you say. You understand very little about human nature. It is essentially animal nature with increased complexity. Look at the lion pride for a limited comparison. Fierce predators, social animals, and devoted parents, with no need for a Bible to tell them what to do.
I bet there would be more crime without religion. "Hey wanna rob that bank? No its a sin to steal. God doesnt even exist and we have a life to live! Dont let someone else control it! Ok!" Robs the bank. "Hey lets rob the bank! No its a sin and its not right. Your right, god wouldnt like that. Cmon lets go do something else".
Region may have its flaws, but Atheism in my opinion is worse. Humans in my opinion, need to be controlled because we all have desires and we will act on them unless were
@malikc6 If you choose an action only because you've been forced down that path by God against your will, how is that good or noble or moral? True ethics of merit are those that WE choose for ourselves, by considering the consequences of our actions. This is true responsibility. If you are not capable of it, then yes, you need religion. Not all of us have such a poor estimation of our natures.
Well it may be a mind control, but its better than social Darwinism. I think atheism is a negative force because if by some reason, the whole world became pure Atheism, people would have nothing to lose. Some people who have repented only did it in fear of punishment after death. If they no longer had that fear, they would still be monsters.Look at that movie the Christmas carol. The main reason the guy start liking Christmas, is fear of burning in hell.
@malikc6 You speak as if there are only two extremes, atheism or Christianity. Personally, I'm a pantheist.Besides, if what you say is true, atheists should be the most immoral people, but in practice they're not.
@darrylsloan Do you agree we need a foundation in our lives despite how people see them? I mean, without these 2 things in anyone's lives, we would be demons.
People who believed in Social Darwinism where VERY immoral. Often white masters or people who would enslave others thinking its ok because their animals and only trying to increase their chance of surviving. In my history class, atheists appear to be one of the most immoral people in this world. They have nothing to lose or fear.
@malikc6 You're not dealing with reality. A divinely imposed morality has been the very rallying point for the worst atrocities of the world, such as crusades and inquisitions. If you can read 1 Samuel 15 and not be chilled to the bone, you're a lost cause.
Been there, and set my mind free at my 16th which resulted in making me feel more uncomfortably with reality at first, I had to rearrange my views on life and such...
But religion isn't something a men needs, it's pure doctrine.
And now afther some years I feel perfectly comfortable with no having the answer of what's going to happen afther dead and such, live in the moment!
it makes sense, which is why a person needs to think before they conform. because there is nothing wrong with doing what you do if its good for you, but its important to know the truth before jumping in to anything. that which you do you will become...look at culture...look at an athlete...same applies to religion. if a religion does not follow teach both a relationship with Christ and the 10 commandments, then most likely thats not a religion you'd like to be accustom to.
Nice video bro...you made a lot of good points here. I was brought up in a very religious family. I was even very religious myself when I was younger. But now, everything kind of changed with me. Because of me being different and not thinking inside the box, everyone verbally attacks me here. I don't think things in life are that complicated and complex like those books tell us or religion.
Well done on breaking out of the "programming" of Religion. My mother in law plus others we know go to church, but they have no clue why and don't like that I ask. The common answer is though "it's the right thing to do, you should to". Religion has been designed so that the masses place their hope to be rescued in an event that will never happen,ie Jesus coming. The Governments and evil Secret Societies can continue as is, knowing they won't be challenged by the masses & won't save themselves!
hi,,what part of the gospels in mind control...what is your basis? the gospels of Christ is to free a person,,thats what christ tried to do....no mind control,,,he tried to free and heal....... yes though the way the christianity is presented by others can seem fear dominated/////,,,think for ourselves yes great....and things are often not what they seem.
no critical thinking is ok,,,but calling mind control on christianity is also you trying to control it also in a way,,,,,,just read the gospels if you can sometime and be at peace he will give you greater works to do than just telekinesis,,,.only God can reveal anything to you......no human power can reveal what you seek at this point.
using wording like dogma and mind control are often used in defense against christianity,,,ive very much seen it before,,,not a strong enough to convince me at all,,,but there are writtings of pontius pilate and others to confirm the existance of Christ and the riots from the miracles that occurred.....
the bible was wrote by the control of the zionist,as they run the world,that is the problem with the world, all non zionist are goyam animals in their eyes.god /devil are fearful boogie men to control the weak
REV 22-16 IS THE BRIGHT AND MORNING STAR-VENUS WORSHIP--ITS ALL ASTROTHEOLOGY-JESUS IS REPTILLIAN WORSHIP-AND HE WAS BARIED IN SRINIGAR-INDIA--ANYWAYS--CHRISTIANITY IS --A THROW AWAY SOLAR CULT RELIGION WAKE UP-THE SAME STORY WAS RUNNING AROUND THE MED FOR `1000 YEARS BEFORE RA HORUS--MYTHRA-KRISHNA-SAME STORIES --IT CAME THRU THE MEROVIGN BLOODLINE THIS RELIGULOUS NONSENSE
ww.youtube.com/watch?v=vkXOwBIRX7Y-please watch and understand ur own bible
I just made a video myself talking about the mind control programming known as Christianity that I was under since the age of 13. So everything you're talking in your video, I completely understand.
thank you for making this video MIND-CONDITIONING.... INDOCTRINATION.... WE HAVE ABSOLUTLEY NO PROOF OF THAT WE WILL OR ARE DAMNED & WILL BURN IN HELL.... OR THAT WE WILL GO TO HEAVEN. NO ONE HAS EVER GIVEN ME A-N-Y PROOF. PROMISE IS ALL THAT WE GET AND AS ANY THINKING INDUVIDUAL KNOWS PROMISES CAN BE BROKEN OR THEY CAN BE JUST OUTRIGHT LIES !
I still follow the chatolic religion, but I still believe is that God made us in his image, meaning we have a small amount of the ability he has, though its sealed within our subconcious that will allow us to do amazing things (hey, I actually woke up at night levatating a few times).
What kind of reasonable god damns people ? Well, they don't. If god is wise and all knowing he/she/it would NEVER damn people. It's immoral, it;s evil. Simple as.
So the christian god is a croc made up to CONTROL people. That's evil.
I can relate to what you say on many levels. I grew up as a Catholic, became a JW at the age of 20, after 15 years left that cult only to go on to joining, albeit briefly, a Calvary Chapel church but I have always had doubts that would not go away, due to my critical thinking skills. These doubts have led me to a whole new view of life and I now feel eventually free of the shackles of religion. Reading Jesus interrupted by Bart D. Ehrman. Opens my eyes to things I never knew about the bible.
All I can remember with Christianity was fear. Even as a child of 8 yrs old I questioned what was being said. It never seemed right to me, the reasoning behind it. While I still feel that way, I do believe in the message of love and forgiveness of Jesus as being real, love and forgiveness frees us, not doctrines and dogmas. Other eastern religions taught the same thing without all the baggage of ritual and rules of the Church.
I'm a christian. i believe what i do because of the choice i made,yes i was raised in a christian home but last year i wondered the same thing... why do i believe? because i was raised like that? so i ended up with the fact that i believe because it's my choice to, its just what i believe.And yes i'm sure some are like that but not me. but i do thank you for your food for though.
@NosirrahXonk gee I wonder why you chose christianity? Maybe because you were taught LITTLE TO NOTHING about the other 100+ religions in the world. There was very little true choice in the matter, and assuming you actually made any sort of true choice, it would have only been due to an incredibly massive amount of BIAS.
IF PEOPLE CANT WAKE UP AND REALISE THAT RELIGION IS JUST ANOTHER FORM OF CONTROL JUST LIKE THE MEDIA WE ARE BRAINED WASHED WITH ON A DAILY BASIS THEN THERES NO HOPE FOR MAN KIND
My young nephew is a true religious fanatic. He presumes *any* attempt to speak with him about his beliefs as an attack by The Devil.(no joke), and responds violently by yelling at people that they are going to Hell and are agents of Satan.
This does not make him easy to communicate with.
What exactly (in greater detail) caused you to see Christianity as mind control? And how did you deal with those who wanted to keep you mind controlled after you started to break free?
So true that FEAR is the base of many religious systems and I too luckily broke away from my early religious brainwashing beliefs. It is a tool to stir constant fighting and keep people from exploring other possibilities.
my favorite comment "through religious education classes"....if faith is something that is natural then why must it be trained....why do people put so much faith in "training" anywase... last time i checked.. the average human doesnt know anything about actual survival anymore... thats why people die when they get stranded somewhere and die somewhere 100 years ago their ancestors would have known what to do....most education is de-education in regards to naturally born instinctive behavior...
That is how God is. Into mind control and trying to scare the crap out of everyone and making threats that last for eternity. The bible is beyond the word of God- it is a reflection of- because it is riddled with lies and distortions of reality and threatening people all the time. Just like God is. Least the one that I met. I am supposedly a schizophrenic, but it is amazing how much I see this same personality appear again and again.
God is also into getting people to fight- this is why there are so many religions and they all seem to fight each other- even over petty differences. Same God I have came to know- doesn't love unity or peace, but loves a good fight! Especially by people who have no idea what they are talking about or where it comes from. Perhaps it is even more interesting to fight over delusions than it is to fight over truth. Then no one is really ever right- and the fight can go on forever.
God creates all belief and thought- and can do whatever it should so desire with you. Why would it have to convince you through people or books what to think? God also made up all those questions to the "answers"- so don't think you have gotten away from what God wants you to do or think just because you didn't read it in a book or you questioned a book. That is what God wanted you to do.
And no you are not going to hell at least not in that sense. God told me so, really. It already exists here on Earth- don't become a heroin addict, get imprisoned in China or become a schizophrenic and you'll be fine.
yah dude, agreed! religion is mind control, and i hate it! however... :).... christianty is different than religion. have you read 'the end of religion'? there was another book i usually reccomend for these circumstances but it seems to have slipped my mind... anyway! belief in our great god almighty can exist without it's annoying sidekick, religion (btw... this is new testament ideals.. the old testament is the one with all the rules we needn't follow..) hope this gives you reason to believe..
Oh, I'm quite certain that reality is a lot stranger than scientific thinking atheists would assent to. I just don't think it's all encapsulated by one religion.
When you think about it, the existence of "demons" is no more a pointer to Christianity than it is to any other religion with a concept of demons.
Sinead O'Connor said she started to believe in God really, when she saw a man/creature at night coming towards her bed from shadows in her room .
She got scared and looked for help.
I had similar horrors. My sister prayed for a very sad person with strong depression, when she suddenly smiled at her and said in a man's voice: 'you can't do anything to me, you're too weak.
Well, things like that prove me the existence of spiritual world, and struggle for humans.
Thanks for this. I want to make it clear that I fully respect your right to have your faith, and to express it. But I too have to express what I think. And I have no hesitation in saying that I don't accept that view that mankind is lost/damned and in need of salvation. I was enslaved by that mentality for too long, and I see it as a means of control, of keeping people in line: "Think how we want you to think, or you won't go to heaven."
The biggest assault on free thinking and manipulation with threats is Islam- you cannpt even question the silly Muhamad story without being issued with a Fatwa death sentence :)
I still, however, focus on the main message of Christianity, that Jesus died for you and loves you. And you've got the salvation through Him. No fear needed.
It seems some people want to be scared and then coddled and reassured. It takes the abandonment of critical thinking and logic, but much like the government, people will gladly trade it for the illusion of peace and security. To me, ok, to me; religious people are incomplete in almost every way, but its by choice they stay that way, so I feel it is a sort of consciousness suicide or retarded awareness, and I still am working on ways to reach them but the cloud is so dense.
I was born into a Christain family too. All my close relatives are Christains, and I became one when I was just 3 years old! Can you believe that?! How could I have made any informed decision when I was so young?! All through my life I've been brought to church against my will to hear the Gospel, and I thought it all made sense. But I've always felt a boundary surrounding me regarding my religious life. If I crossed it, I would feel guilty. WHY?! Why can't I explore the truth and ask questions?!
It's said that critical thinking doesn't begin until age 7. Before that we're like a sponge, just soaking up any information that comes our way. Santa Claus included. This is why "question everything" is the cornerstone of my approach.
When I was about nine, I remember how I found out there was no Santa. I asked my mum about it while we were sitting in church, and she couldn't bring herself to lie! :-)
Lying/deceiving is the third largest sin in our religion, it comes after disbelief in God and disobeying righteous parents. Lying in Christianity is also forbidden and yet kids are being wrongly informed about non-existant things, for e.g. santa man, jesus being crucified. Who said he was crucified. How many times has the bible been changed and yet people refer to it? Someone please explain to me why these occur
I in the last 3 months have been exploring the idea of christianity coming from a non religious background. Only a spiritual background, and tk from an early childhood!. From what I have learnt in the past 3 months has basicly tought me that the faith is, well... the spiritual roots of it, are the same as my own faith that I was born into by my own free will and exploration. The only difference between my own beleifs and Christianity was the practice.
i dont do tk but i am very smart (and 11) and i have been an athiest scince last year and i believe that people have created religion(faith) so that people won't be afraid and will feel safe because they think that a god is protecting them. religion is bull..just plain bull my parents believe in god but im not a follower (or a leader) im just the guy who waits for another athiest to come along and be friends with me.......REPLY!!!!
Personally, i have had great results on moving the chi wheel, from the first day i was able to move it from more than 30 centimeters, but am not sure if this is telekinesis, as all i can do is make the wheel spin, if it was telekinesis i should me able to do something diferent, as pushin it maybe?
Am starting to think that is not telekinesis but.. chi or soul or... spirit... am not saying that TK doesnt exist, i still believe that those guys who destroy spoons are real telekinetics.
Christian reactions to TK in my life have varied from person to person. There are, after all, a lot of different expressions of Christianity out there, and a lot of room for varied opinions.
It's important to allow people freedom, including the freedom to believe and practice a religion, if it's what they want.
Outlawing religion isn't the answer, because it's simply removing one form of imposition and replacing it with another: "Believe or be damned" and "No religion allowed" express the same control mentality. People have to awaken of their own choice.
And religion will only be gone through a mass awakening. The best we can do is just keep on telling what we know.
Of course Religion is a form of mind control... logic will tell you this..or common sense. The way I interpreted god in the bible - was that it's persona seemed to be sadistic, egotistic, and very much that of a narcissist... More human traits..wouldn't you say!!
Interesting oint of views, It ios a feisty debate, It is hard to say cu when i pray and stuff I would feel like this strange glow inside of me and feel un-stressed and alot better about myselff, I understand wat it says in the Bible as the 4 gospels are concerned but I know Jesus came in the flesh but like to be fair Jesus is God and were human, I beleive u can do your best but must repent. (And I am NOT saying that you shud) I am not one of those who fear monger pees into this beleif system
There is a catharsis in prayer, just as there is a catharsis in writing, or in getting something off your chest to a friend, or talking to a therapist.
Personally, I don't think Jesus was ever real. I've never heard a solid historical argument.
Real spirituality is what comes from the heart, not through a set of books that are supposedly divinely inspired, requiring blind belief without critical thinking.
i mean i guess the freedom is what brings me closer to God. when i expeted christ publicly in my church the pastor said that i wasnt joining the church because there is no membership or something stupid like that, i was begining a relationship with christ. no church has the right to judge a person, execomunicate a person from God, and so on. i mean u can look up calvary chapel ft lauderdale tell me what you think and tell me if they abuse the congregation.
I too had felt a relationship of love with God when I was a Christian. I didn't experience the fear until I questioned my faith and ultimately decided I had to abandon it. Fear is the gatekeeper of religion. You won't feel it if you're a happy Christian. Wait till you decide to leave, and you think, "What if I'm wrong?" Wait till you see what that does to your head.
Ultimately you are free to believe what you wish. I fully respect that. But I do like to challenge people.
im not going to convince you to do anything but i will say this. Christ didnt come to found religion he came to found relationship, christianity is the following of christ just like buddhism is the following of buddha's teaching. The proof that i have heard about was the tomb of james the brother of jesus son of joseph, the tomb of caiaphus..aka yoseph bar kayafa the high preist at the time was found in 1990. and ofcouse the writings of josephus ben mathias whor wrote of jesus's works.
Calling Christianity a "relationship" rather than a religion is an idea that doesn't hold water, because Christianity relies on imposed dogma, just like every other religion.
The mention of Jesus by Josephus is a fraudulent insertion. Why would a Jew say "He was the Christ"? Clearly he wouldn't. Don't take my word for it. The consensus of historians since 18th century have viewed this to be fraudulent, and yet Christians today still keep on quoting it as proof.
again if dogmas and rules and the fear of going to hell is what brings people to church then religion in europe realy is in bad shape. i mean in my church calvary chapel, we stress the importance of relationship with christ, not rules and regualtions. different denominations do different things, i go to a non-denominational church, i used to be methodist and hated going to church cuzz it felt like a ritual, but i feel more connected to christ more.
different denominations have different rules just as they are in religions like judaism, islam etc ive never heard the word preached in my church just the bible. either way im not here to change your belief because you've obviously thought it out and decided and i respect your decision. my relationship with christ is one of love not one of fear. and my belief in him is one of faith. God bless you brah! and again i like the videos.
Governments and religions are alike... they possess the power to control minds and give delusional comfort. The only real difference between the two is that you can flag religion and say no to it and not suffer the consequences of your choice. But to do the same with a government that rules your country... well that's entirely different. Great vid by the way.
Very good video you make good points. I am Christian on a personal basis from my own decisions in life. I'm not looking to argue by posting this. If you're at school and you're given an assignment but instead you just doodle on paper, the teacher might say that your drawings are nice but you're still going to get failed for not completing the assignment. Christianity is God trying to get to the people while religion is people trying to get to God. Religion is full of dogma and is unnecessary.
Very inspiring, Darryl. Thank you. I admire your strength and clarity.
By the way, "mind control" is THE PERFECT term for what many of us have experienced -- not just in so-called "cults" -- but in mainstream "Christianity" also.
Too much of western religion thrives on a broken spirit.
Breaking the spirit of children or adults by convincing them that they are inherently flawed, "fallen," and unable to trust their own reasoning faculties IS "mind control" -- and it is evil.
well see here our difference in mind control in my opinion of it it is forcing someone to do something they would not normally or to do something they do not accept themselves even Darryl said that he made the choice.
Mind control is more subtle than being forced. Consider my videos about TV mind control especially. The sinister genius of mind control is when you manipulate someone to go in a certain direction while they feel it's completely their own choice.
im sorry you havent found what your looking for in a religion but i am glad you have a sense of spirituality. As far as mind control i know it can be perceived that way but what other way would you try to share and support a set of beliefs you hold to be true than trying to en-still it in your children and by reaffirming it to yourself and expressing it to your friends. im just saying mind control may be the wrong choice of words there is definitely an inappropriate sway with religious ideology
there is a truth about religion, you know there is but the churches are too busy trying to prove who is right rather then synergizing to find the truth. the fear of consequence binds people into a certain type of thinking which they dont truly understand themselves besides the thought that if they dont follow the rules that they will go to hell... and not just for a few weeks, but forever! to go against the mentality that the churches instill is heresy.
I think I've made an important discovery regarding TK in relation to emotion and the use of music to stimulate emotion, especially in gaining success with a covered psi wheel. So, when I get a better handle on it, there'll be a video.
the religius mentality doesnt work I thought it did once the pherisees who condemed jesus because they were religiuos now the bibble does not tell you everything thats why people have to find out for themselves I dont go to church anymore becausw it is religius my former church is so thats why I am searching for the truth its a long searchbut I must find the ttruth
I agree with you 100% Darryl. 99.9% of religious people do not actually practice what they preach anyway. A world without religion would indeed be a more pleasant world to live in.
Nice video! I encourage you to take a look into Richard Dawkins' videos. He raises a lot of good points on religion, especially the indoctrination of kids in their parents religion. Cheers!
But Im a Christian, of no association to any sect or denomination bc as of all the ones that I have studied (Catholic, Seventh day adventist, peterist, baptist, southern baptist, "non-denom" etc) all have major flaws in their teachings when compared with the Bible. What a struggle it is to study when everyone says something else whilst contradicting themselves.
More than 10 years as a Christian, only last year did I find explanation. "Things that Differ" by C.R Stam
Once again you are right. Hearing the truth is truly better than hearing what will make you feel better. Though hearing what will comfort you comfort you, eventually the truth will come out and the impact of realizing that truth will make it even worse than if you heard the truth from the very start. A very sad but yet essential truth which most fail to see due to their clinging on to society :(
The trouble is now, we have extremists who use religion as a form of control, terrorism, for example, all comes back to religion. Religion in my eyes is bad and good - but IS a control mechanism.
IN TIMES OF DESPERATION - PEOPLE BELIEVE WHAT THEY WANT TO BELIEVE. This has to be how religion evolved. Society had problems (famine, disease, death, overpopulation the list goes on) who wouldnt think of a way to control people by pretending there is a god who has magical powers and if you dont do as the ten COMMANDMENTS (clue is in the word i think) then you will go to hell.
Whether the classical God exists or not, it's about time humanity grows up and lets go of the apron strings and stand on its own feet, take responsibility and grow. Stop asking deities to solve the problems of the world. Let's take responsibility and sort it ourselves. God is a distraction at a time when we've got more important stuff to deal with.
but i dont really trust the bible now in days cause humans (us) add onto it all that i trust is yahweh and the lord. Because the bible was originally wrote in hebrew so we dont understand all of what there saying like they can say sea and we'll think it said sky so ijust trust yahweh and the lord and that there is a better place for us to live and no if you dont believe you go to hell he goes by what you did like kill and stuff not that you didnt believe cause it says he put obsticles (science)
You sort of lost me at the end, Blucopper. But it strikes me that you are "sort of" basing your beliefs on the Bible. With me it's black and white: I'm either in or out, Christian or non-Christian. I have no faith in the Bible and so my concept of God is not restricted to what it says about God.
sorry, what i was trying to say is that all the other relegions think that god is like Allah or Buddah but i think its just one person like i think he is actually a crap load of energy and he was created then the big bang happend and he made all the stars and that but i do think he would come down to earth just to see what he created, i mean wouldnt you wanna know what you created?
I totally agree with you. I'm 16 and I stopped believing a few years ago when I was able to think properly about these things by myself. And i believe that we should have the freedom to believe or not.
man i know this is like atheist world right here so dont thumb down me darry can you respond to this plz. The reason why i believe in god is because my friend went into a coma a few years ago for a week cause he got hit by a car and when he awoke he saw his gaurding angel and he was somewhat spooked at first cause he thought that was the dude that hit him but it wasnt cause we didnt see him his brain and eyes where fine everything was checked out to go, but i do believe in somesort of evolution
I also believe in God (but not in the archetypical religious sense of a deity who stand over us as judge). God is not attached to a particular religion which has all the answers.
It's like I said in the video: spirituality without religion.
yea like buddah and allah like there all the same person its just people think that god will belike amajor religion i thinks its a spirit but i do believe that he did come down here in human form since he made the universe and all of that
actualy, i believe that every mono-god bassed religeon is the same...theyr all worshiping the same god, except that they have difrent names for him...i watched a muslm exsosizm(excuse my horid spelling) and ive seen multiple christian exsorsizms(again...please excuse any misspells) and i have to say that they looked like the same thing was happening in both...the demon seemed to be burning in both of them and would bend to it...i would like to say that i believe in all religeons...except one

Darryl, have you looked into Buddhism? B/c it asks it's believers to question everything! And not take anything on faith. I think it is one of the religions that is the exception to this "mind control" you talk about. Though they do encourage mediation which could be considered a form of mind control but not manipulation.

@mckohtz I also have family member individuals who say the same as well. Plus it only makes sense. Almost every religion has an afterlife after death and believers feel they will meet again and their depression and sadness goes down a bit. General sense.

@malikc6 Sorry to hear about your brothers friend but having no religions in the world i don't think makes us worse.. it's much more complex than that. There's multiple layers to life and for sum they can find it easier being having the personal freedom to find enlightenment and eternal life. If you happen to find that in religious philosophies, more than likely they would mirror the atheists, occultist and intellectuals whom might've influenced the books, since nothing is new under the sun.

@malikc6 Religion is comfort for those who need it.. that is true, but lets be clear their doctrines are all flawed are not any word of God but rather a collection of divinely inspired 'human' thoughts on multiple aspects of life. It is simply placed as poetry and then empassioned people who don't understand artistic value or spirituality always want to make sumthing 'physically real in order to feel it. Atheist are neither worse or better than religious people, i used to think so too.

My other friends brother was killed years ago but he accepted it being believer saying "hes up in heaven. When its my time, we will meet again." He had a shorter depression compared to my atheist friend.

Another thing I wanna add. Despite whatever you feel for religion, believers in my experience recover from depression and sadness faster than non believers. Someone dies, the believer feels that they will meet again in the afterlife and recover. A non believer would think they would never see them again and their depression and sadness is a bit longer. I have a friend who is a atheist and his dad died years ago. Hes 17 and still cant get over it.

@malikc6 My mother, with whom I was very close, died as an unbeliever six years ago. According to Christianity, she's burning in hell now, and the only comfort a Christian can offer me is: "You never know what happened between her and God in her final moments." It's as if everyone gets saved right at the brink. What cruel nonsense Christianity is.

Told not to by religion. If I wanted to sleep with some girl I think is hot but cant because the bible says "before marriage" or moral reasons, thats good. If there was no religion, then people would be acting on their desires and instincts. We would do whatever we want and even though we have our desires, we cant do everything we want.

@darrylsloan Well personally I think humans are naturally evil. I believe what Thomas hobbes said. Humans NEED to be controlled. A baby may have a toy. Another baby may have the toy he wants. The baby would most likely try to take it away from the other baby because his desire is the have that toy. If not raised properly or not taught right from wrong, he or she would most likely do this throughout his or her life. I think that from birth, we hold our urgesand would do anything to full fill it

@malikc6 If you choose an action only because you've been forced down that path by God against your will, how is that good or noble or moral? True ethics of merit are those that WE choose for ourselves, by considering the consequences of our actions. This is true responsibility. If you are not capable of it, then yes, you need religion. Not all of us have such a poor estimation of our natures.

Well it may be a mind control, but its better than social Darwinism. I think atheism is a negative force because if by some reason, the whole world became pure Atheism, people would have nothing to lose. Some people who have repented only did it in fear of punishment after death. If they no longer had that fear, they would still be monsters.Look at that movie the Christmas carol. The main reason the guy start liking Christmas, is fear of burning in hell.

Well done on breaking out of the "programming" of Religion. My mother in law plus others we know go to church, but they have no clue why and don't like that I ask. The common answer is though "it's the right thing to do, you should to". Religion has been designed so that the masses place their hope to be rescued in an event that will never happen,ie Jesus coming. The Governments and evil Secret Societies can continue as is, knowing they won't be challenged by the masses & won't save themselves!

I can relate to what you say on many levels. I grew up as a Catholic, became a JW at the age of 20, after 15 years left that cult only to go on to joining, albeit briefly, a Calvary Chapel church but I have always had doubts that would not go away, due to my critical thinking skills. These doubts have led me to a whole new view of life and I now feel eventually free of the shackles of religion. Reading Jesus interrupted by Bart D. Ehrman. Opens my eyes to things I never knew about the bible.

All I can remember with Christianity was fear. Even as a child of 8 yrs old I questioned what was being said. It never seemed right to me, the reasoning behind it. While I still feel that way, I do believe in the message of love and forgiveness of Jesus as being real, love and forgiveness frees us, not doctrines and dogmas. Other eastern religions taught the same thing without all the baggage of ritual and rules of the Church.

That is how God is. Into mind control and trying to scare the crap out of everyone and making threats that last for eternity.

I am supposedly a schizophrenic, but it is amazing how much I see this same personality appear again and again.

God is also into getting people to fight- this is why there are so many religions and they all seem to fight each other- even over petty differences. Same God I have came to know- doesn't love unity or peace, but loves a good fight! Especially by people who have no idea what they are talking about or where it comes from. Perhaps it is even more interesting to fight over delusions than it is to fight over truth. Then no one is really ever right- and the fight can go on forever.
Carex09 2 years ago
God creates all belief and thought- and can do whatever it should so desire with you. Why would it have to convince you through people or books what to think? God also made up all those questions to the "answers"- so don't think you have gotten away from what God wants you to do or think just because you didn't read it in a book or you questioned a book. That is what God wanted you to do.

It seems some people want to be scared and then coddled and reassured. It takes the abandonment of critical thinking and logic, but much like the government, people will gladly trade it for the illusion of peace and security. To me, ok, to me; religious people are incomplete in almost every way, but its by choice they stay that way, so I feel it is a sort of consciousness suicide or retarded awareness, and I still am working on ways to reach them but the cloud is so dense.

I was born into a Christain family too. All my close relatives are Christains, and I became one when I was just 3 years old! Can you believe that?!

But I've always felt a boundary surrounding me regarding my religious life. If I crossed it, I would feel guilty. WHY?! Why can't I explore the truth and ask questions?!

It's said that critical thinking doesn't begin until age 7. Before that we're like a sponge, just soaking up any information that comes our way. Santa Claus included. This is why "question everything" is the cornerstone of my approach.

i dont do tk but i am very smart (and 11) and i have been an athiest scince last year and i believe that people have created religion(faith) so that people won't be afraid and will feel safe because they think that a god is protecting them. religion is bull..just plain bull my parents believe in god but im not a follower (or a leader) im just the guy who waits for another athiest to come along and be friends with me.......REPLY!!!!

Personally, i have had great results on moving the chi wheel, from the first day i was able to move it from more than 30 centimeters, but am not sure if this is telekinesis, as all i can do is make the wheel spin, if it was telekinesis i should me able to do something diferent, as pushin it maybe?
Am starting to think that is not telekinesis but.. chi or soul or... spirit... am not saying that TK doesnt exist, i still believe that those guys who destroy spoons are real telekinetics.

Christian reactions to TK in my life have varied from person to person. There are, after all, a lot of different expressions of Christianity out there, and a lot of room for varied opinions.

All Religion should be dissolved. Simple as. Research and use your common sense... No more sheepeople... Awaken.
julz35 2 years ago
It's important to allow people freedom, including the freedom to believe and practice a religion, if it's what they want.
Outlawing religion isn't the answer, because it's simply removing one form of imposition and replacing it with another: "Believe or be damned" and "No religion allowed" express the same control mentality. People have to awaken of their own choice.
And religion will only be gone through a mass awakening. The best we can do is just keep on telling what we know.
darrylsloan 2 years ago
Of course Religion is a form of mind control... logic will tell you this..or common sense. The way I interpreted god in the bible - was that it's persona seemed to be sadistic, egotistic, and very much that of a narcissist... More human traits..wouldn't you say!!

Interesting oint of views, It ios a feisty debate, It is hard to say cu when i pray and stuff I would feel like this strange glow inside of me and feel un-stressed and alot better about myselff, I understand wat it says in the Bible as the 4 gospels are concerned but I know Jesus came in the flesh but like to be fair Jesus is God and were human, I beleive u can do your best but must repent. (And I am NOT saying that you shud) I am not one of those who fear monger pees into this beleif system

There is a catharsis in prayer, just as there is a catharsis in writing, or in getting something off your chest to a friend, or talking to a therapist.
Personally, I don't think Jesus was ever real. I've never heard a solid historical argument.
Real spirituality is what comes from the heart, not through a set of books that are supposedly divinely inspired, requiring blind belief without critical thinking.

i mean i guess the freedom is what brings me closer to God. when i expeted christ publicly in my church the pastor said that i wasnt joining the church because there is no membership or something stupid like that, i was begining a relationship with christ. no church has the right to judge a person, execomunicate a person from God, and so on. i mean u can look up calvary chapel ft lauderdale tell me what you think and tell me if they abuse the congregation.

I too had felt a relationship of love with God when I was a Christian. I didn't experience the fear until I questioned my faith and ultimately decided I had to abandon it. Fear is the gatekeeper of religion. You won't feel it if you're a happy Christian. Wait till you decide to leave, and you think, "What if I'm wrong?" Wait till you see what that does to your head.
Ultimately you are free to believe what you wish. I fully respect that. But I do like to challenge people.
darrylsloan 2 years ago
im not going to convince you to do anything but i will say this. Christ didnt come to found religion he came to found relationship, christianity is the following of christ just like buddhism is the following of buddha's teaching. The proof that i have heard about was the tomb of james the brother of jesus son of joseph, the tomb of caiaphus..aka yoseph bar kayafa the high preist at the time was found in 1990. and ofcouse the writings of josephus ben mathias whor wrote of jesus's works.
tksmurf 2 years ago
Calling Christianity a "relationship" rather than a religion is an idea that doesn't hold water, because Christianity relies on imposed dogma, just like every other religion.
The mention of Jesus by Josephus is a fraudulent insertion. Why would a Jew say "He was the Christ"? Clearly he wouldn't. Don't take my word for it. The consensus of historians since 18th century have viewed this to be fraudulent, and yet Christians today still keep on quoting it as proof.
darrylsloan 2 years ago
again if dogmas and rules and the fear of going to hell is what brings people to church then religion in europe realy is in bad shape. i mean in my church calvary chapel, we stress the importance of relationship with christ, not rules and regualtions. different denominations do different things, i go to a non-denominational church, i used to be methodist and hated going to church cuzz it felt like a ritual, but i feel more connected to christ more.
tksmurf 2 years ago
different denominations have different rules just as they are in religions like judaism, islam etc ive never heard the word preached in my church just the bible. either way im not here to change your belief because you've obviously thought it out and decided and i respect your decision. my relationship with christ is one of love not one of fear. and my belief in him is one of faith. God bless you brah! and again i like the videos.

Bible = dogma = religion.
darrylsloan 2 years ago
Governments and religions are alike... they possess the power to control minds and give delusional comfort. The only real difference between the two is that you can flag religion and say no to it and not suffer the consequences of your choice. But to do the same with a government that rules your country... well that's entirely different. Great vid by the way.

Very good video you make good points. I am Christian on a personal basis from my own decisions in life. I'm not looking to argue by posting this. If you're at school and you're given an assignment but instead you just doodle on paper, the teacher might say that your drawings are nice but you're still going to get failed for not completing the assignment. Christianity is God trying to get to the people while religion is people trying to get to God. Religion is full of dogma and is unnecessary.

Very inspiring, Darryl. Thank you. I admire your strength and clarity.
By the way, "mind control" is THE PERFECT term for what many of us have experienced -- not just in so-called "cults" -- but in mainstream "Christianity" also.
Too much of western religion thrives on a broken spirit.
Breaking the spirit of children or adults by convincing them that they are inherently flawed, "fallen," and unable to trust their own reasoning faculties IS "mind control" -- and it is evil.
ThomasRosenkreuz 2 years ago 2
well see here our difference in mind control in my opinion of it it is forcing someone to do something they would not normally or to do something they do not accept themselves even Darryl said that he made the choice.
thirdmind3 2 years ago
Mind control is more subtle than being forced. Consider my videos about TV mind control especially. The sinister genius of mind control is when you manipulate someone to go in a certain direction while they feel it's completely their own choice.

LiquidFl4me 2 years ago
im sorry you havent found what your looking for in a religion but i am glad you have a sense of spirituality. As far as mind control i know it can be perceived that way but what other way would you try to share and support a set of beliefs you hold to be true than trying to en-still it in your children and by reaffirming it to yourself and expressing it to your friends. im just saying mind control may be the wrong choice of words there is definitely an inappropriate sway with religious ideology

there is a truth about religion, you know there is but the churches are too busy trying to prove who is right rather then synergizing to find the truth. the fear of consequence binds people into a certain type of thinking which they dont truly understand themselves besides the thought that if they dont follow the rules that they will go to hell... and not just for a few weeks, but forever! to go against the mentality that the churches instill is heresy.
you are very right.

Religion is BS I agree.
But Im a Christian, of no association to any sect or denomination bc as of all the ones that I have studied (Catholic, Seventh day adventist, peterist, baptist, southern baptist, "non-denom" etc) all have major flaws in their teachings when compared with the Bible. What a struggle it is to study when everyone says something else whilst contradicting themselves.

Once again you are right. Hearing the truth is truly better than hearing what will make you feel better. Though hearing what will comfort you comfort you, eventually the truth will come out and the impact of realizing that truth will make it even worse than if you heard the truth from the very start. A very sad but yet essential truth which most fail to see due to their clinging on to society :(

The trouble is now, we have extremists who use religion as a form of control, terrorism, for example, all comes back to religion. Religion in my eyes is bad and good - but IS a control mechanism.

IN TIMES OF DESPERATION - PEOPLE BELIEVE WHAT THEY WANT TO BELIEVE. This has to be how religion evolved. Society had problems (famine, disease, death, overpopulation the list goes on) who wouldnt think of a way to control people by pretending there is a god who has magical powers and if you dont do as the ten COMMANDMENTS (clue is in the word i think) then you will go to hell.
cseralph2222 2 years ago
Whether the classical God exists or not, it's about time humanity grows up and lets go of the apron strings and stand on its own feet, take responsibility and grow. Stop asking deities to solve the problems of the world. Let's take responsibility and sort it ourselves. God is a distraction at a time when we've got more important stuff to deal with.

but i dont really trust the bible now in days cause humans (us) add onto it all that i trust is yahweh and the lord. Because the bible was originally wrote in hebrew so we dont understand all of what there saying like they can say sea and we'll think it said sky so ijust trust yahweh and the lord and that there is a better place for us to live and no if you dont believe you go to hell he goes by what you did like kill and stuff not that you didnt believe cause it says he put obsticles (science)

You sort of lost me at the end, Blucopper. But it strikes me that you are "sort of" basing your beliefs on the Bible. With me it's black and white: I'm either in or out, Christian or non-Christian. I have no faith in the Bible and so my concept of God is not restricted to what it says about God.

I also believe in God (but not in the archetypical religious sense of a deity who stand over us as judge). God is not attached to a particular religion which has all the answers.

This is actually an important issue you raise. The question is this:
Do the bad actions happen in spite of the religion, or because of it?
What is to blame - man's natural nature, or minds manipulated to act in certain ways by an imposed belief system?
