[PaulypowerUK]

All you brainy bastards need to let the religious tards just die out, the patriot act sucks and is not designed to stop muslims that in reality couldnt blow up a sex goat. we have terror laws and serious organised crime laws in the UK that are not designed for real terrorists, they are designed to sweep anyone off the streets that has a negative opinion of the state. the world works like a Tax Farm and the money we pay in tax goes to the debt. to the Rothschilds HELP US PHILHELLENES PLS

[PaulypowerUK]

Rule number one: NEVER, EVER, EVER click on youtube advertising! In fact, boycott those who do advertise on youtube if possible.

If they fail, then hopefully a better site will become the biggest.

download firefox, and the add-ons adblock, no script and remove it permanently, and you wont even SEE the ads after you learn how to sue them all.

god lifts me up thank you very much =]

[ribbonwing]

woah there buddy, lets not go flying off the cliff just yet, kay?

communism is in no way linked to atheism. nor is it linked to totalitarianism or intolerance. you CAN have communist governments that are free and tolerant. you can even have religious communism, unfortunately.

the red numbers on your comments are puzzling though. i see no reason for them.

[mcigorin]

Latin: communis = "common"

political ideology that promotes the establishment of an egalitarian, classless, stateless society based on common ownership and control of the means of production and property in general. (see wiki and Marx and Engel's Communist Manifesto)

[mcigorin]

And now let's look at latest communist mainstream Marx-Leninism (and derivative in form of Maoism), which was proclaimed as official ideology of SU (China) and its satellite states with centralized economy, centralized political and military power, one party, one "right" ideology. That's why totalitarian - dictatorship of proletariat i.e. worker's "democracy". Militant because they were (are?) in permanent revolution as regular way to reach their goals ("perfect" egalitarian society).

[mcigorin]

Atheist believers,

red numbers at my previous comment is sign of your intolerance, sign of your totalitarian militant ideology called communism!

[element1988]

lol whats a Atheist believer?

[Josephbaco]

Well, atheists do not like to hear it, but they are believers as well. Their faith asserts - "there is nothing supernatural". no respect to those silly people who believe in miracles .... Marx well known doctrine of dialectical materialism, which was promoted to public norm in many communist countries.

[element1988]

how can you can faith in nothing? you cant have faith in something that doesn't exist(lol well apparently you can XD)

As the great phill once said, "atheism is a belief, in the same way that not stamp collecting is a hobbie"

[MartinBaco]

I suppose Phil likes hellenism much more than fundamentalist theism :-) that's why he probably used these sarcastic metaphor. However it's the same as to say to arrested Tibetan monk awaiting his execution for rebellion that his belief in president pardon is like belief in not stamp collecting is a hobbie.

[tekhiun]

not really. Atheism is not a belief. Is a lack of one. Any other belief that this tibetan monk has is not based on the lack of a belief but on other beliefs. If you argue that his belief is based on the lack of belief in a god. Then so are the beliefs of any theist. A christian has a muslin belief, because he doesnt believe in allah , a hindu has a christian believe and so on.

[PachucoDesigns]

Atheism is not a faith in anything. It is not a claim that there is no god. It is the rejection of a claim that there is one. There is a difference.

[Puckrockerette]

Being an atheist myself, I must tell you that I disagree. What does "A-Theism" actually mean? Check this. Of course we claim there is no god.

[PachucoDesigns]

No, I have checked it. "A-" means not, or without. "Theo" means god. And "theism" means belief in a god, or religion. Therefore, "atheism" means "the lack of a religion or belief in a god." It says nothing about making our own claim. It only speaks of a claim that we reject. A more accurate word to what you're describing would be "antitheist." Of course there are people who claim there is no god, but most atheists will not make that claim. They simply will not submit to the claim that there is.

[Puckrockerette]

Sorry, this is wrong. "Theism" means "belief in god", the first part of the word is its lexeme (its nucleus) and means "god". The second part is a mere sufffix (-ism = a kind of priciple, here: belief). Now we add the negative prefix "a". Which part of the word does it negate? The nucleus "god" (to which it is linked) or the inferior suffix "belief" (from which it is separated)? Think about that, my dear. An atheist says: "There is no god." What you are referring to is mere agnosticism.

[PachucoDesigns]

God damn it, this website needs an edit button. "Theos" means god, as identified in The Theogony. "ism" is derived from the Greek suffix, denoting the action of practice, doctrine, and belief, or just a general state of being. Hense, "baptism" or "stigmatism." "A-" is also derived from Greek, meaning "lack of," "without," or "not."

"ism" denotes the state of being of the person being described. "A-" negates this state of being. Atheism means "Without religion or belief in a god."

[PachucoDesigns]

There are no "practices, doctrines or systems of belief for atheists. But the issue is still about God. Therefore, the part of the word being negated is "ism."

[PachucoDesigns]

Now, if the word were "antitheism" (which there are antitheists), you'd have a point. "Anti" means "against" or "opposite of." That word would mean a belief in the opposite.

[Puckrockerette]

In early Ancient Greek, the adjective atheos (ἄθεος, from the privative ἀ- + θεός "god") meant "without god". So the prefix a- refers to theos (god) and the suffix -ism is an addition to both. So an atheist says I believe there is no god instead of your I dont believe in god. I know that atheism is also (and maybe predominantly) seen the way you define it, but etymologically it does not make much sense.

[Puckrockerette]

Antitheism is a rather exotic term. It does not only mean the belief that there is no god (which is covered by atheism), it also includes the active rejection of or opposition to theism.

[Puckrockerette]

But even if an etymologically correct atheist says I believe there is no god, it is absurd to say atheists are believers as well (as some people here tried). The belief in the absence of something cannot be called a belief. The statement I believe there is no omnipotent pink unicorn does NOT make you a believer or put you in any belief category.

[PachucoDesigns]

"The statement I believe there is no omnipotent pink unicorn does NOT make you a believer or put you in any belief category."

Exactly. It is not a belief. So however we perceive the word to be structured, it means the same thing. The lack of a belief.

[PachucoDesigns]

"Atheos" was a term that meant "without gods." It was a term used to describe a person who did not believe in the gods, who believe in false gods, or in any way oppose the theistic beliefs of the time. It effectively meant "heathen." "Without gods" is an accurate description. A lack of having a belief. It is a lack of a belief, not a possession of a belief in nothing. It makes perfect etymological sense.

[Puckrockerette]

So according to you, a prefix negates the suffix, whereas in my opinion it negates the lexeme (as it usually does). That's why I'm stil not convinced of your point of view, however, this is not really decisive. The most important thing is that we come to the same conclusion (either etymologically or logically): atheism is not a belief. (A "possession of a belief in nothing " makes no sense to me, this cannot be called a "possession", what do you possess??? Nothing.). Peace.

[PachucoDesigns]

Even if it does negate the lexeme, "A-" still means "without," and "without" still refers to the state of being of the person being explained. "One without gods." "Ism" means state of being, practice, practice or dogma. There is no practice or dogma in atheism, so it can only be a general state of being. "Being without gods." One who does not believe in the gods.

[Kieranfoy]

Maybe it's a sign of us not liking being called Commies. Here's a thumbs down for your efforts.

[kickahippie7]

fuck yeah!!!

[mcigorin]

Hi Phil, I support freedom of speach but also freedom of faith as well as freedom of owners to setup policies, which do not contradict to law consistent with human rights and freedoms and responsibility of people who use owners' services to obey agreed policies and contracts. That's a pitty because I liked your videos and reasoning you used there.

[mcigorin]

However I disagree in your effort to defend atheism by science maybe just because I'm coming from east block country that was in jail of ideology called somtimes scientific atheism. True scientist will respect freedom of philosphical views.

[Timothysiddall]

commenting because uutube blows

[ryanomaly84]

youtube at least allows "bad" language and content, so what the hell is wrong with this guy? why would they do that to him? fuck youtube's authoritarianism

[awormyourhonor]

ooh. One point you fall through on.

"How do I know what is good for them? Because I BELIEVE that it's better to deal with life skeptically and rationally than BELIEVING in a bunch of crap that's not true."

Who's to say that the religious don't find what you believe to be crap that's not true?

It all comes down to believing after all.

Let them use belief, you need to use your knowledge.

Should not be afraid of this bull shit.. If youtube keeps this kind of crap up. The fix is as simple as the programng in the site.

The good thing about private companies (as opposed to government) is that you can change provider of the services you want. Im tired of the YoyTube censorship. What alternatives can you people recommend?

[Thomasdser]

Awesome Video. Youtube can be a great asset for you. If you need any help getting your video exposed check out this site called sl8t.(com) It has really done wonders for me, I have built 3 channels up with videos at top in position, this is my forth channel I'm going to working on now.

Sorry for the parenthesis around the com, some reason Youtube will not let you give an actual address in a comment. Real weird. Have a Blessed day!

Awesome!

[MikeOfKorea]

Google (owner of YouTube) is owned and operated by conservative religious people, hence the recent spate of attacks on atheist channels.

I support his right to freedom of speech.. but what he's saying right now, in this video.. could've been said in two minutes.. he just keeps going and going and going and going and going... get to the point buddy!

[fukraadmi]

looking at your language i think world had enough of your help---

[TheAist]

and this from someone whose name is fuk? be for real

[fukraadmi]

ha ha funny --dear sir it is fukra admi its two words means man has habit of bragging and of course i brag sometimes but without using gross words --

[TheAist]

see, the thing is this, i cuss on purpose. i am anti-dogmatic. many people, mostly religious, think that cussing is bad. as i see it, no one gets hurt, and i can express myself how i please. i do not suppress my thoughts for anyone. So, if someone is offended by my words, i have to suggest maybe its you who might need to rethink things. (shrugs)

if my "bad" language made you react, then i have been effective.

[fukraadmi]

oh yeah you ve freedom of speech but there is a matter of decency which comes from values and education

[TheAist]

well, obviously we do not share the same values. i dont know what you believe, but i value life. and my language has no bearing on life, except to promote it. whether something lives or does not depend on how i say things. as for education, i think thats irrelevant too. i certainly dont claim to know everything, but i would pit my knowledge against anyone's. it still has nothing to do with language. the truth is the truth whether i call it truth, or the fucking truth. 1 plus fucking 1 is still 2

[fukraadmi]

your language is proof how much you love life and dear sir we dont need a American telling the world how much he or she loves life world know it very well how much you love life --a lover of life and being a American is irrelevant --right now you people ve nothing to do with life--you love violence thats what is your religion so stick with it--

[TheAist]

well, so much for keeping it respectful, huh? you condescending attitude is more vulgar than any word i can say. what does being american have to do with anything?you are a victim of preconceived notions. which kinda proves my...fucking point. im an anarchist. it is you who has just displayed bigotry and stupidity. so, dont tell me about morals and education, you are a bigoted idiot. feel free to piss off now, dummy.

[fukraadmi]

thank you sir may i ve another laugh --calm down you smart American--- ve fun --we r done here --im not gonna choose to come at your level (higher)

[philhellenes]

Of course it will. And, in case nobody else says it, thanks for trying.

[rozeboosje]

[ur2blind2c]

there must be some really tech/business savvy people somewhere who see an opportunity here - to start a new "of the people-for the people-by the people global video internetwork . youtube's weakness is that they can't come up with a way to make it profitable without , essentially, lobbing off the "little guy". there has to be a way. any business geniuses out there?

[ludersatan]

ill reupload this shortly.

maybe we all have to even create new accounts to all the videoes about suspended people.

i know ill try.

youtube wants to turn this site into some kind of virtual disney land where all are super nice and smile to each other, even though they dont mean it.

We do have freedom of speech, even on youtube. Youtube listens to much to people who have their minds in the bronze age.
