This is some very awfully misguided commentary on the original forms of islam and christianity.
In early roman culture, the notion of homosexuality didn't even exist; they were all "bisexual". The legend of the virgin birth was probably a homage to earlier religious lore about a virgin birth miracle. It added importance to jesus' past.
The hijab (vail) in Islamic culture was post-qur'an, and its practice is a result of a complicated assortment of culture influences.
But would you blame the bible/qur'an and the founding teachings?
The travesties associated with religious institutions are from outside influences. None of the prominent world religions preach immoral/irrational nonesence.
Give some real examples of irrational religious nonsense that is truly rooted in the religion...
The only problem i find it inhibits progressive thinking by promoting conservationism.(However Jesus was a very progressive thinker.)
qua-ran says kill non believers -- Catholics didn't eat meat on Friday -- priests can't marry --- gays can be talked into being straight -- All of them believe in Angels-- the devil the whole thing is irrational and nonsense.
Any quote from the Qur-an that suggests the killing of non believers is mistranslated and/or out of context. -- Religions hold traditions for the sake of keeping the religion alive. Similar to why you eat turkey on thanksgiving. -- there is no mention of homosexuality in the bible. Gay intolerance in the church was adopted by modern societal values (that are just now changing). -- Belief in Angels is not universal and insignificant anyways.
yes, their are many child perverts in the Catholic religion, but it is not the Catholic teachings, it is the will of those Priest that jion the Preisthood for the wrong reasons. And I blame the Church for covering up for these false men who mask themselves is religious men of faith. Just as their are bad Police Officers that should not be representing the Police Uniform and protecting the public.
homosexuailty is in your mind and has nothing to do with the Christ and the lives of ministry with the apostels. The apostels mission was to witness and record the acts of Jesus Christ example on how to live in Gods way. The apostels left their wives and families to follow the Christ. Their is no inference of gay life with them. They separated from all sin and society of the cities, just as people go away to college to become academics, and not be confusted of the ways of fallen man.
Ok i agree with some stuff, but if you noticed the word "Probably" was used too much. There is curruption in all religions and churches. So if anything have a relationship with god. Sex is not condemed by god only lust and permiscuis behavior.
16: And if any man's seed (zoosperm) of copulation go out from him, then he shall wash all his flesh in water, and be unclean until the even.
18: The woman also with whom man shall lie with seed (zoosperm) of copulation, they shall both bathe themselves in water, and be unclean until the even.
John 1:12: But as many as received him, to them gave he power to become the sons of God, which were born, not of blood, nor of the will of the flesh, nor of the will of man, but of God. -
Then change the name of your video - you hypocrite - name it NEWSTODEVILS; and don't take what you think is fictional as a base for your "factual idiotic comments", otherwise it doesn't make any sense, you moron.
You are just an ignoramus who walks on the path of idiocy
Religion from Latin relegare, from re- "again" + legere "to bind fast".
Sexuality: In order to be born, you - (or anybody) as a zoosperm - were "again bind fast"(relegare)by your father into the womb of your mother in a sexual act.
"Now to Abraham and his seed (zoosperm) were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds (offspring), as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed(zoosperm), which is Christ.- Galatians 3: 16
I do know for certain of an afterlife. However, it doesn't mean I'm wasting this life. I pity you because all you have to look forward to is death and darkness. I hope you find your own path as well my friend.
death...and darkness? darkness would mean there's an afterlife, if there's no afterlife then once you die you seize to exist..besides that, darkness goes away after twelve hours.
I enjoyed your video but when making something like this you need to be factually accurate to stop the message being missed as its medium is such an easy target. I am, however, dissapointed that you continually equate a belief and faith in God with organised religion and its hypocracies. You polarise your argument into atheism or religion. While there is an infinate realm of strength, faith, compassion and hope that exists between them that brings a sublime quality of life.
Do you really think that simply removing the very human belief in a transcendental dimension will solve all our problems? This world is not perfect, and it seems that it cannot be made prefect. (cf. the failure of all utopian ideologies) Extinguishing religion will not bring peace. Faith enables us to see beyond the veil of this world and hope for the perfection that we feel must be. Your desire for the end of religion is a true desire, but surely mistaken, as it is really a desire for God.
Hmmm-world not perfect-it could be more perfect w/out religion. Infinite life is not reasonable -- so god is a none issue--if you cannot reason something why would you desire it--false blind hope is stupid.
Hmmm, you have a narrow view-- belief in god is tearing the world apart. religion against religion--belief against non-belief--are you willing to become muslim? That is the muslim goal covert or kill. I have apathy; that is why I made the video to help people break free of religion. When you stop believing in god this life becomes immediately more important than anything else--dying gets you nowhere.
that is by far the stupidest thing you have said. were do you think compassion and apathy came from. it didnt come from evolution. it was given to us. why would peaple get along better without God. God is the only thing keeping this world from going over the edge. And you actually believe the world would be better off without Him. you are a blind man.
the guy who made this was retarded. in the story of Lot the daughters needed to have kids so they intoxicated there father. JESUS WAS NOT A HOMOSEXUAL. no1 in his party of followers. future generations will not think us stupid because of religion. they will envy us for how much better it is now than when every1 loses faith. being a priest or minister doesnt make you perfect. more young peaple are getting pregnant but you never hear about them. you just want to tear God down. knock it off!
Against bible? why dont u stop talk about bible and start think about the Human kind...Our feelings, needs... bible is a moral example, not a guide for life!
23LIGHT: That, my friend is a misinterpretation, the Bible is against men LUSTING for one another, not against them LOVING one another. The Bible is actually anti-lust for all relationships, and pro-love for all relationships. Get. Your. Facts. Straight!
no there isn't...and if you're thinking of "atheists" that's not really a religion..atheism means you don't believe in any religion or whatever, so it can't possibly be a religion, that's an oxymoron.
But a pastor can get laid as much as he wants by all the pretty women in the neighborhood, promising salvation...so long as he ain't married more than once?
Religious people aren't going to kill themselves, religious people founded basically every great nation on the planet. There are far more religious people than non religious people.
And besides, if you are so confident in our self destruction why do you open your mouth and argue with us.
"If religion is the cause, then the answer is simple -- get rid of religion."
That sounds like someone believing they are right and wanting everyone else to think so as well. You know damn well you will never get rid of religion without killing people.
And stop using the word "evil", there is no good or evil without the existence of superior being. Everything is a natural occurrence of the universe, and humans are a natural result of the planet.
I'm a Christian and I disagree with most of the assumptions presented in this video. But I'm asking politely for ever Christian trying to be smart and argue with this guy to stop. Your misspelling everything, using terrible sentences, and making fools of yourselves and our religion.
If your not SURE that what you have to say is worth anything then please just keep it to yourself, you are simply fueling this man's prejudice and preconceived notions of Christians.
there are a lot of gaps in your arguments... many of the premises that you base your arguments upon are presuppositions. and why ask these questions and try to create doubt in people without giving an answer?
what is your answer to this dilemma that modern society has created for itself?
If religion is the cause, then the answer is simple -- get rid of religion. All of these things have been created by men under the guise of gods word.
You know, I think you're more pathetic than religion for bashing it. If you don't agree, then that's wonderful. Keep it to yourself. I, myself, am Pagan and NOTHING wrong has come from my religion. It's the oldest, actually. Everything was stolen from us and we were made to look like the bad ones. The way I see it, you chose not to believe and you probably get pissed when a religious person tries to tell you how great God is. Why be a hypocrite and upset someone by saying how 'bad' He is.
That's man kind for you. A man creates something and seems to have all the answers for people in distress. Then there always has to be another man who blames the religion. It's the MAN, not the religion. There is nothing wrong with religion, people abuse it. So, basically, get a life and actually attack the people, not what they believe in. Also, the Muslim thing, who's to say every guy thinks that way? How you word it, you make it could like every Muslim guy rapes.
answers for people in distress---While you are at it, minds well tell them the world is flat and sickness comes from evil spirits. Distressed people spend money and waste time being controlled by religion. There is no god--knowing the truth generally reduces stress. Religion is the only thing that can destroy the world--it is evil to the core.
Actually, I disagree with that. The thing with religion is that the people who follow it do not use their own brains. I believe there is a God for many of reasons, but I do not believe what most people say. The fact that we should bow down and worship him. Or kill in His name. Bullshit. Now, the fact that you openly offend people, is very sad. You use big words and well structured sentences to try and make yourself smart. Well honey, you're just as smart as the Priest's you insult.
You miss the point--we have no control over meteors-- people believing everyone should believe in their religion to the point of killing non-believers like muslims--that's evil.
Prove to me first how the universe apear? And why there is death? why are we mortal? You are saying the universe is the alpha and omega? Are you saying it is just there from the beginning. There is no cause of it to exist? How did became a single cell? or where did a single cell came from?
you answered too quickly perhaps?, get informed about which country I was talking about and how the burka is used. The Arab Word cant be reduced to the absurd. And the only slavery they are suffering is the ignorance of islamic cultur from the western world. AHH of course we can forget the slavery impose by U.S. troops in have middle east and mayor economical domination. Do you want to talk about slavery? About why they still keep that way of life?
perhaps your are forgetting that all three monoteistic religions in world today (Cristianity, Judaism and Islamism) came straigth from ancient traditions (that are kept in our times) so that doesnt means women are weak or so... Even, not going further, in some (and I say some) middle east countries there are police women that proudly weares their burka (the small one version). Its a worse predjuice to claim that every one would feel the same regards to someting, even if that is "impose" to them
Whether it's gay people or anyone else I just wonder why you waste your time.
Who gives a dam what people think of each other as long as they aren't targeting you.
If this life is all there is you should focus on getting your piece of the pie and be thankful that stupid Christians are allowing their beliefs to hinder them from competing with you.
I only know a few gay people and they seem very nice. I am a little confused as to why people people see the video as relating to gays in particular. I was concerned that gays might find it offensive. I am convinced that gay people were very influential in the early christian churches and pretended to be godly when they were hiding their sexual preferences, that's all.
That is where you're wrong my friend, I don't claim that I know how God thinks and I don't make excuses to make the Bible "rationale".
Religion, as it means to bind, was created to bind my friend. Since the old times evil had been everywhere till now. So defacing a bible is common. You can tell this even by our worlds history, on how colonization was done and before that. Logistics should be applied as well, so common knowledge may understand.
The moral lesson that bible intended wasn't supposed to be narrowed down into a literally obvious explanation. God doesn't want us to repeat the mistakes that we made before that is written in that bible, as an example incest before was for the survival of human kind. There are millions now, and what is incest for?
Explanation doesn't come from what you just see, but from what you should truly understand.
You are just one in a long list of people who interpret the bible to create a rationale so they can believe in a non existent god. You also claim to know how god thinks another commonality among irrational believers. Sorry, I have no questions.
Am I supposed to be crushed by this statement. Actually straight as an arrow. If your vocabulary can handle it, try making an argument for a position on religion.
I call myself Christian because that religion is closest to what i believe. Yet i believe what you say in this film is true. "They" where simply humas, with needs, as well as i and everyone else...
Dude You Are EXTREMELY confused. the 12 disciples were followers. Strong Believers. Thats all. Monks lived in Monistaries because Sex was a distraction. Priests weren't allowed to marry because sex many times leads to evil thoughts. The Virgin birth was for one a prophecy and two humanly impossible to prove that God was more powerful than any human. And finally there is no rape, homosexual sex, or evidence of pedophilia in the Bible. Where do you get half of this crap?
There is plenty of rape of women and girls in the old testament actually.And whats now immoral and is always wrong against women was the polygamy that they practiced.Read the old testament and you will see that King Solomon had 700 wives and 300 concubines.
The bible says married couples should have sex, that homosexuality used to be punishable, and many other things. You're obviously biasing and exaggerating!
yes i agree with you to an extent but dressing modestly is not bondage, its protection from unwanted looks and attention. I am happy no man can see what I got when I walk down the street, and if that's bondage than I want to be in that kind of bondage
There has to be balance in everything but I think that the Muslim dress is too much cover while skimpy clothes are obviously too little cover.A woman should dress somewhere in between these two extremes and should also have the chance of being comfortable in her clothes i.e not being too hot(as in burqas in hot Middle Eastern countries).
I agree 100% I am a muslim woman and I dont go to extremes like covering my face and hands, I wear loose clothes, I do cover my hair which is actually my most beautiful possession. And I act like a lady, I dont booty dance and wear tight clothes to attract attention
There is no reason to be covering your head/hair as head/hair is not sexual or indecent.Also it is ok to wear clothes such as a skirt that covers as far as the knees and a 'top' thathas only the arms and upper neck uncovered."And I act like a lady, I dont booty dance and wear tight clothes to attract attention"Act like yourself and dont let anyone tell you how you should act and let guys like you for your personality.I don,t quite know what a 'booty dance' and maybe I don,t want to know.
thank you for your opinion but I take my guidance from a higher source just like Im going to have to answer to a higher source. I've done my own research and experiments and have concluded that wearing the hijab is very practical and deeply wise. I can drive down the street without a guy molesting me by hunking his horn and hooting at me. It seems like the more I respect myself, the more men respect me. I am a lady so I act like one. Telling me to be "myself" isnt giving me clear guidance
No one can tech you how to be yourself, you just have to get up and release yourself from your self imposed shackles. I find it unfortunate that you have to feel as though you need to cover yourself up so men will not honk their horns at you.
i didnt say no one can teach me how to be myself. Why do you feel its unfortuanate that I have to cover for men to not honk and yell sexual jestures at me? I actually feel its unfortunate that women have to take their clothes off and sometimes even have to get on their knees butt-naked and let a man put his thing in her just for her to get ahead in this world or get a promotion. Dont act like it doesnt happen here in the wild wild western society.
I think you are a little confused about the verse in the quran where it says there will be 72 virgins in heaven. lol it simply means that heaven will be filled with virtuous women! Not whores and prostitutes! And i dont think virgins die to go to heaven just to copulate with other people! So you better know how you act when you get around them!! :)
priests were allowed to marry up until Gregory the Great. seminaries sucked back in the 70. who says a virgin birth is a myth? looking at things from afar shows you nothing. where are you looking from, the moon? where do you get this stuff, Bostan?
Its funny how you continue to speak for us even though we muslim women will tell you that you quite frankly have no idea what you are talking about lol.
well to tell you the truth thats the problem! I think western men need to stop asking everyone who is NOT a muslim woman about how WE feel. And I think Western men need to stop pretending to be the epic heroes of eastern women trying to "save" us from our own men. If anything you should be trying to save your own women from cosmetic bondage through anorexia, plastic surgery obsessions and teenage low self esteem issues. This is why non-muslim women like myself turned to Islam for help with that!
A slave?? What are you talking about?? Muslim women arent slaves to man or his man-made goods, the only slave and servant I bow down to is God and believe it or not that is the only consciousness I will EVER be a slave to! Muslims are completely and fully free EXCEPT towards the limits of sin which would stop us from growing in our Lord. And God pregnating Saint Mary with the holy spirit is a sign! Praise be to the Prime Creator!
Well now I wouldnt say its a waste of humanity, I'd say its fufilling my true human potential. You see Muslims believe that humans can go up and down, you can be like an animall or you could go beyond the physical urges and live in God's image. One of the ways of doing that is to recognize the creator and live by his moral rules and regulations. What I recommend to you is that you take a higher course in Comparative religion so you can expand your knowledge a bit cuz you are a bit off right now
Actually this is a very silly video. Muslims believe in thevirgin Birth of Jesus and sexuality is heavily encouraged as long as you are married so this whole sex-tabbooe thing is a Catholic/Christian thing. Plus Islam doesnt recognize living a sexless life, God made sex so why be ashamed? Plus women only cover infront of strangers not infront of their bf's husbands, dads or brothers. And women r told to cover in the BIBLE 1 Corinthians chapter 10! It instructs us to dress modest not slutty!
Interesting vid. I like critical views of religion, and there certainly is some hidden sexuality in the stuff you mentioned. But I felt it was a bit too one-sided. You made it look as if all monks and priests are gay and everyone working for the christian church has some kind of sexual complex. And, just cause young boys were in monasteries, it's a rather big leap to assume this automatically lead to pedophilia.
Think about it your gay; which up till recently was totally unacceptable. Where could you go and find other gays and be acceptable? I did not say everyone. I knew straight priests all which, about 6, ended up having relationships with women. My goal is to have people question religion not to be fair. That's for them to figure out.
Something happened to a comment on female instituted religions. We can split hairs, I guess. There's probably a Red Hat religion or something. No major religions started by women and all major religions restrict/classify sex in some way.
Sorry, but you need to get your facts straight. Who says ALL religions were started by men? (I don't know a counter-example, I don't know all religions, but there must be one) Or that ALL limit sexual behavior? Have you checked the pagan ones? And the number of gays vs number of priests could well be a coincidense. You know parallel figures don't always have to be connected. I don't see how being a priest helps your being gay. You'd still have to live it out in secret, where's the difference?
You're right, christianity, judaism and islam, the three religions who are most prominent RIGHT NOW, were started by men. But that's just cause men have been dominant these past couple of millenia. A woman wouldn't think of that until recently. Why mention this? Are you saying men are more religious?
All religions try to control sin, of course. And I guess it makes sense that they consider it wrong to give in to your animal instincts too much. They then probably just drove it a bit too far.
Hmmm, Mohammad was a pedophile hung up on young virgins. These guys in TX claim different levels of heaven based on some combination of children from different wives. Historically, all these religions were started to meet some guys sexual needs. King Henry wanted sex with another women BANG a new religion. Catholics are really confused sexually, even today. Heck of a coincidence, I'd say.
Sorry but, what's that claim based on, "Catholics are really confused sexually, even today"? Care to share the studies and statistics?
And in Mohammed's time it was normal to marry such young girls. He hardly needed to found a whole religion for that. I don't doubt it's likely one or the other preacher in history will have twisted Religion to fit his needs, but to make that a general rule?
You'd have to have been a catholic to understand how catholic girls are made to feel guilty about sex. Then there's priests and nuns--about as confused as can be, I'd say. If it was normal it was still wrong and muslims don't say it's wrong so, one can only assume they are OK with it. My goal is to plant seeds of doubt so people quit believing in a nonexistent god. If they want to disagree well they are just blinded by poor judgement.
Well I agree that catholic chastity is way too exaggerated, and that monk celibacy is probably not a very natural thing. I like it if people are critical about religions and don't just follow them blindly, but aren't you trying a bit too hard to "convert" people? That makes you no better than christian missionaries who say "I'm trying to make people see how wrong atheists are, so they see only christ is the truth." And it's rather narrowminded to say "those who disagree with me are blinded".
I see religion as a very bad thing and more and more atheists are starting to speak out; generally, in a far more civilized way then christians who try and scare people with demons, satan, and the fires of hell. Take care
Well that still requires you to assume that monks have a tendency to be gay, if you'd go searching for partners there. And you wouldn't be acceptable there. Any straight monks would have considered it a sin. There are plenty of other male-only organizations you could go to, e.g. an army or become a sailor. You could use your arguments for them just as well. I think you're "begging the question".
Btw, check the link in my profile. I have a forum for such controversies. (Small, but growing)
Oh for criminies sake. catholics = pedophiles? Monks and nuns are all homosexuals in disguise? This is incredibly cheap and stereotypical. Did whoever made this do any sort of research apart from listening to other prejudiced teenagers?
Thank goodness this movie kills of its own credibility by naming Christianity as an early religion. Sucker.
The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it.-George Bernard Shaw. Enos of evolution gave us insatiable drives to procreate now enjoyed recreationally, and will abeit suppressed, continue along with other unique behavior of our species-sport of hunting without need of food for survival of another cohabitant of the planet. May the God of your choice bless us all.
Probably a carry over from prehistoric days. Where it may of had something to do with survival or it's stupidity. Take you pick. Seriously--good question.
Interesting point -- They let someone else interpret the bible for them--they really don't know what they believe. Maybe the fear of death is taught by the religion in the first place. Excellent! Take care
...why certain things are the way they are, and im sure eventually there will be a proper meaning for new things to come within the church, they might eventually cater more to the times of the ppl lving today but without meaning to anything in life then what really is the point? its almost like saying I want to be a hockey ref and play then game at the same time.
Well my faith is firm I believe in GOD, and it is not so obvious im my opinion that it was allowed in the past really if u look at the position of the priesthood married ppl cant be priests ether, so someone sexual active is the same, in ether preference. The position of the priesthood has a meaning and if you choose to be catholic you would need to respect that meaning behind why you are becoming a priest, now not everyone HAS to be catholic but those who are should understand the meanings on
...to hear the "whys" of both sides rather then make a judgment off the bat, thats what I think anyways, to figure out what would make someone think in a certain way, which takes a lot of un bias reading to do. ( unbias meaning the pure sources of where the information might come from and not a homemade website) have an awesome day hope all is well.
The pope recently said he wanted not to allow gays in the priesthood. Gays were obviously allowed in the past. The "other side" in the religion argument in well known. Sacraments and all that are just ritual to make something seem like gaawd is involved. I am only interested in making people who believe in gaawd see how stupid it all is.
however, having said all that did you know that the roman catholic religion excepts gay ppl and demands full respect towards them but declines there practice, and for a reason that makes sence if your catholic that is, but I mean it really does have some points if you understand what a scariment really is, and espesically the saciment of marriage, The compendium of the social docterine of the church (typed in google) there is a lot of "why" there, I dont expect u to read it but it is always...
so ok, because someone doesn't want to have sex they ... automatically want to be gay? ... wait a min, if you don't want to have sex ... then how can you assume they want to be gay? or even have a better chance of being gay? and also by saying that Jesus had a "group of merry men" means hes gay or they are gay? I have a group of friend to and I'm straight I have a gf. you are trying to find things that just are not there sir but thats my opinion and you have a right for yours I guess.
My goal for the video is to have people doubt there religious beliefs. Celibacy is very hard to maintain. The first gay I ever new was a Jesuit brother. I new many gay priests and nuns; I don't think it was a coincidence. As being gay becomes more acceptable the number of priests and nuns decline proportionately --another coincidence. Take care
Lot did not have sex with his children, they had sex with him. He was more or less raped, and was "not aware of it when she lay down, or when she got up."
Many modern historians believe many of Jesus' "merry men" were married men who brough their wives with them.
My guess is non of it happened--that is, I am sure incest happened--the whole bible is just fiction--just a story a bunch of people contributed to. Not aware eh... Humm now that's really far fetched--what preacher sold you that? I am amazed at the stuff people believe. Take care
Actualy, Moses "sold" me that. Lot's daughters got him drunk, making him unaware that he was having sex. In further comment, homosexuality, as in a commited relationship, was almost non-existant in biblical times, but homosexual acts were common, especialy in Greece, where there were semi-committed relationships. Sexual orientation is a new concept. Out of curiosity, how much of the Bible is baced on truth, in your opinion? Who is the first "real" biblical character?
Hmmm--good ? Any references to god, angels,miracles are not true. Roman historians wrote about Pilot. All the names in the bible are a gray area to me. How do modern authors pick character names? Toniesha begot Keamo-- I mean all those names were invented by a writer not handed down some how. Real ones would be those found both in the bible and in validated historical writings before the fact, I guess.
this guy is trying to be taken seriously when he uses terms like jeus and his band of merry men. like childish pseudonyms add credit to his thought and opinions
It's hard to take religion seriously -- it is so ridiculous -- All I want to do is plant seeds of doubt. I am doing my part to build a base of people who don't depend on a non-existent god. So far 33,000 people have heard one of my arguments. Take care
this guy is clearly gay and attempting to ratonalize his perspective. the point of chasity was that you have risen above the desires of this world and graduated to enlightenment. it was never meant for everyone, but only those who could.
Hmmmm--Who's gay jesus? Probably not because because he didn't exist--early christian leaders were probably gay and pedophiles. Definitely hung up on sexual stuff as are all religions. As an atheist it is easy to see the distorted views regarding sex and religion. I'm married 44 years,BTW. Perhaps it is you that is dong the rationalizing. Take care
I watched it cuz you have a soothing voice.....

The apostels mission was to witness and record the acts of Jesus Christ example on how to live in Gods way. The apostels left their wives and families to follow the Christ. Their is no inference of gay life with them. They separated from all sin and society of the cities, just as people go away to college to become academics, and not be confusted of the ways of fallen man.

Ok i agree with some stuff, but if you noticed the word "Probably" was used too much. There is curruption in all religions and churches. So if anything have a relationship with god. Sex is not condemed by god only lust and permiscuis behavior.

Religion from Latin relegare, from re- "again" + legere "to bind fast".
Sexuality: In order to be born, you - (or anybody) as a zoosperm - were "again bind fast"(relegare)by your father into the womb of your mother in a sexual act.
"Now to Abraham and his seed (zoosperm) were the promises made. He saith not, And to seeds (offspring), as of many; but as of one, And to thy seed(zoosperm), which is Christ.- Galatians 3: 16

I enjoyed your video but when making something like this you need to be factually accurate to stop the message being missed as its medium is such an easy target. I am, however, dissapointed that you continually equate a belief and faith in God with organised religion and its hypocracies. You polarise your argument into atheism or religion. While there is an infinate realm of strength, faith, compassion and hope that exists between them that brings a sublime quality of life.

Do you really think that simply removing the very human belief in a transcendental dimension will solve all our problems? This world is not perfect, and it seems that it cannot be made prefect. (cf. the failure of all utopian ideologies) Extinguishing religion will not bring peace. Faith enables us to see beyond the veil of this world and hope for the perfection that we feel must be. Your desire for the end of religion is a true desire, but surely mistaken, as it is really a desire for God.

answers for people in distress---While you are at it, minds well tell them the world is flat and sickness comes from evil spirits.

Religion is the only thing that can destroy the world--it is evil to the core.

Actually, I disagree with that. The thing with religion is that the people who follow it do not use their own brains. I believe there is a God for many of reasons, but I do not believe what most people say. The fact that we should bow down and worship him. Or kill in His name. Bullshit. Now, the fact that you openly offend people, is very sad. You use big words and well structured sentences to try and make yourself smart. Well honey, you're just as smart as the Priest's you insult.

There has to be balance in everything but I think that the Muslim dress is too much cover while skimpy clothes are obviously too little cover.A woman should dress somewhere in between these two extremes and should also have the chance of being comfortable in her clothes i.e not being too hot(as in burqas in hot Middle Eastern countries).

There is no reason to be covering your head/hair as head/hair is not sexual or indecent.Also it is ok to wear clothes such as a skirt that covers as far as the knees and a 'top' thathas only the arms and upper neck uncovered."And I act like a lady, I dont booty dance and wear tight clothes to attract attention"Act like yourself and dont let anyone tell you how you should act and let guys like you for your personality.I don,t quite know what a 'booty dance' and maybe I don,t want to know.

Actually this is a very silly video. Muslims believe in thevirgin Birth of Jesus and sexuality is heavily encouraged as long as you are married so this whole sex-tabbooe thing is a Catholic/Christian thing. Plus Islam doesnt recognize living a sexless life, God made sex so why be ashamed? Plus women only cover infront of strangers not infront of their bf's husbands, dads or brothers.

And, just cause young boys were in monasteries, it's a rather big leap to assume this automatically lead to pedophilia.

And the number of gays vs number of priests could well be a coincidense. You know parallel figures don't always have to be connected. I don't see how being a priest helps your being gay.

All religions try to control sin, of course. And I guess it makes sense that they consider it wrong to give in to your animal instincts too much. They then probably just drove it a bit too far.

Hmmm, Mohammad was a pedophile hung up on young virgins. These guys in TX claim different levels of heaven based on some combination of children from different wives.

Sorry but, what's that claim based on, "Catholics are really confused sexually, even today"? Care to share the studies and statistics?
And in Mohammed's time it was normal to marry such young girls. He hardly needed to found a whole religion for that. I don't doubt it's likely one or the other preacher in history will have twisted Religion to fit his needs, but to make that a general rule?
Mithcoriel 3 years ago
You'd have to have been a catholic to understand how catholic girls are made to feel guilty about sex. Then there's priests and nuns--about as confused as can be, I'd say. If it was normal it was still wrong and muslims don't say it's wrong so, one can only assume they are OK with it. My goal is to plant seeds of doubt so people quit believing in a nonexistent god. If they want to disagree well they are just blinded by poor judgement.

I see religion as a very bad thing and more and more atheists are starting to speak out; generally, in a far more civilized way then christians who try and scare people with demons, satan, and the fires of hell. Take care

Well that still requires you to assume that monks have a tendency to be gay, if you'd go searching for partners there. And you wouldn't be acceptable there. Any straight monks would have considered it a sin. There are plenty of other male-only organizations you could go to, e.g. an army or become a sailor. You could use your arguments for them just as well. I think you're "begging the question".
Btw, check the link in my profile. I have a forum for such controversies. (Small, but growing)

Recent exposer of large numbers of pedophile priests, was this an accident or bred from within? I say, no accident bred from within.

Oh for criminies sake. catholics = pedophiles? Monks and nuns are all homosexuals in disguise? This is incredibly cheap and stereotypical. Did whoever made this do any sort of research apart from listening to other prejudiced teenagers?
Thank goodness this movie kills of its own credibility by naming Christianity as an early religion. Sucker.

The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it.-George Bernard Shaw. Enos of evolution gave us insatiable drives to procreate now enjoyed recreationally, and will abeit suppressed, continue along with other unique behavior of our species-sport of hunting without need of food for survival of another cohabitant of the planet. May the God of your choice bless us all.

here lies the big question, why do people beleive what other humans tells them rather than searching for the truth themselves.

Interesting point -- They let someone else interpret the bible for them--they really don't know what they believe. Maybe the fear of death is taught by the religion in the first place. Excellent! Take care

...why certain things are the way they are, and im sure eventually there will be a proper meaning for new things to come within the church, they might eventually cater more to the times of the ppl lving today but without meaning to anything in life then what really is the point? its almost like saying I want to be a hockey ref and play then game at the same time.

Well my faith is firm I believe in GOD, and it is not so obvious im my opinion that it was allowed in the past really if u look at the position of the priesthood married ppl cant be priests ether, so someone sexual active is the same, in ether preference. The position of the priesthood has a meaning and if you choose to be catholic you would need to respect that meaning behind why you are becoming a priest, now not everyone HAS to be catholic but those who are should understand the meanings on

...to hear the "whys" of both sides rather then make a judgment off the bat, thats what I think anyways, to figure out what would make someone think in a certain way, which takes a lot of un bias reading to do. ( unbias meaning the pure sources of where the information might come from and not a homemade website) have an awesome day hope all is well.

The pope recently said he wanted not to allow gays in the priesthood. Gays were obviously allowed in the past. The "other side" in the religion argument in well known. Sacraments and all that are just ritual to make something seem like gaawd is involved. I am only interested in making people who believe in gaawd see how stupid it all is.
NEWSTOGOD 3 years ago
however, having said all that did you know that the roman catholic religion excepts gay ppl and demands full respect towards them but declines there practice, and for a reason that makes sence if your catholic that is, but I mean it really does have some points if you understand what a scariment really is, and espesically the saciment of marriage, The compendium of the social docterine of the church (typed in google) there is a lot of "why" there, I dont expect u to read it but it is always...

so ok, because someone doesn't want to have sex they ... automatically want to be gay? ... wait a min, if you don't want to have sex ... then how can you assume they want to be gay? or even have a better chance of being gay? and also by saying that Jesus had a "group of merry men" means hes gay or they are gay? I have a group of friend to and I'm straight I have a gf. you are trying to find things that just are not there sir but thats my opinion and you have a right for yours I guess.

My goal for the video is to have people doubt there religious beliefs. Celibacy is very hard to maintain. The first gay I ever new was a Jesuit brother. I new many gay priests and nuns; I don't think it was a coincidence. As being gay becomes more acceptable the number of priests and nuns decline proportionately --another coincidence. Take care

Lot did not have sex with his children, they had sex with him. He was more or less raped, and was "not aware of it when she lay down, or when she got up."
Many modern historians believe many of Jesus' "merry men" were married men who brough their wives with them.

My guess is non of it happened--that is, I am sure incest happened--the whole bible is just fiction--just a story a bunch of people contributed to. Not aware eh... Humm now that's really far fetched--what preacher sold you that? I am amazed at the stuff people believe. Take care
NEWSTOGOD 3 years ago
Actualy, Moses "sold" me that. Lot's daughters got him drunk, making him unaware that he was having sex. In further comment, homosexuality, as in a commited relationship, was almost non-existant in biblical times, but homosexual acts were common, especialy in Greece, where there were semi-committed relationships. Sexual orientation is a new concept. Out of curiosity, how much of the Bible is baced on truth, in your opinion? Who is the first "real" biblical character?
AnouMawi 3 years ago
Hmmm--good ? Any references to god, angels,miracles are not true. Roman historians wrote about Pilot. All the names in the bible are a gray area to me. How do modern authors pick character names? Toniesha begot Keamo-- I mean all those names were invented by a writer not handed down some how. Real ones would be those found both in the bible and in validated historical writings before the fact, I guess.

Hmmmm--Who's gay jesus? Probably not because because he didn't exist--early christian leaders were probably gay and pedophiles. Definitely hung up on sexual stuff as are all religions. As an atheist it is easy to see the distorted views regarding sex and religion. I'm married 44 years,BTW. Perhaps it is you that is dong the rationalizing. Take care
