One, therefore, certainly does not mock/ridicule/demean them for with this idea grasped one easily sees that this is no way of getting through to that differently fashioned mind. It is through sympathetic understanding that one is better able to help the religiously constructed mind onto a better mind.
In all actuality religious beliefs are not idiotic. Its not the sort of thing that directly deals their intellect. Rather, its a very deep emotional yearning that takes primacy over one's intellect. Religious minds are simply fashioned (at no fault of their own) in a different manner that allows their thoroughly engulfing yearnings to be satisfied through religion. Once one grasps this then there manifests a very genuine humanistic desire to help create a better mind. To help the mind of man
@HalloFusilli yes religion is a good thing, unless followers of a religion take all of its stories literally with a total lack of evidence. then it has overtones of delusion.
@HalloFusilli But one doesn't need religion to "help the mind of man." One must merely refrain from being an ass. However, most religions have a "convert or die" mentality, and that certainly does not "help the mind of man". It creates an "us vs. them" mentality, which does nothing but separate us all for stupid reasons. I understand your point, but don't agree that religion is the way to do it. See "Why God Won't Go Away." Excellent book about our brains and religion.

@Equanimity John Carlin is going by science. and science is made by man and really and truly it can't all be factual at all. scientist's that have studied the bible find it all factual..

This is complete ignorance.. god, people are so damn ignorant with they're heads shoved deep up they're asses that they can't even see that god does exist. and they can't see how much better and less miserable they're lives would actually be if they just followed god and atleast tried to follow the 10 commandments, now i know some ignorant prick is going to try to argue with me.. but that's fine. I'm telling you. God is real. No joke, give it a chance. or be miserable for the rest of your life.
No one goes to hell for just not believing in the right God, or any God. If anyone goes to hell, it will be for doing all those, immoral, illegal things you did in life because you thought you would not ever have to answer to anyone for doing them.
I love watching these christian idiocy vids. But does anyone else get the ad "date christian girls" NEXT to the vids where we watch how much we hate christianity? Still, I'd wreck that blonde chick. Christians are gullible, they believe Eve was tempted by a talking snake to eat fruit from a magic tree so I'm sure I coud say SOMETHING to get the blonde to open her legs.
@GileadKid dude. When I was in college there was this hot blonde who was a hardcore christian. She listened to christian rock as we drove around. oh... you were looking for a point to this story: She was easy.
Science offers reasonable explanations to many of our questions, and science has cures for many aliments. Science isn't afraid to say it doesn't know and science isn't afraid to look for answers. Religion seeks to keep people in subjugation and claims that everything is the will of God. Religion demands obedience and punishes thinking.
Science seeks answers, religion looks for excuses
@TheFockerizer Science, or factual information looks to inform, while religion is a tool used to control the stupid.
Scientists seek answers, and clergymen do their best to get people to keep coming to their shows, to continue watching them. Sounds kinda like consumerism, intelligence-sapping entertainment and the government-controlled media.
You see where I'm getting at? It's not what people are doing or saying, it's what happens as a result of an action.
@mrsweetos Thats funny because in science where does it say there cannot be a God? but then again i would probably know more about science then you :s
You are right science does not explicitly say there is no God but it does show there is no evidence of one.
that all the so called proofs and scriptures are constructed by man. That of all the many myths and ledgends man has created the 3 monothastic ones apart from being the worst are unquestionable and invention.

"THE GOVERNMENT OF THE UNITED STATES IS NOT IN ANY SENSE FOUNDED ON THE CHRISTIAN RELIGION." (Treaty of Tripoli, Article 11: Written during the Administration of George Washington and signed into law by John Adams.)
its sad how people are sitting here desperately trying to create analogies to take the focus off of the fact that you have to believe there is no god, or believe there is a god. either way you are working off of a belief. but as i said, atheists come off as insane, and these sad attempts to reject the fact that its not just a lack of belief in a creater, but also a belief that there is no creator are only making you sound more irrational.
@rnalithe00 no the joke is on the big bang, because it didnt make a bang, it made no sound because theres no sound in space. a mind blower, isnt it...
see, if want to believe in God or not is one thing, but its people like these guys that give Atheists a bad name, many call atheists pretentious and arrogant and from watching these guys, i wouldn't blame them, what they are doing is no worse than what the overly fanatical christians do, forcing their beliefs down other people's throats and belittling a person's beliefs because they dont share them, grow the f**k up, this isn't comedy, it's a bunch of guys picking on people
takes the same faith to believe there is a god as it does to believe there isnt. agnostics are the only ones that dont come off as absolutely insane to some other group of people if you ask me.
@nashnwo1234 Faith is when you BELIEVE in something even when it doesn't have evidence to prove what you BELIEVE to be real. Atheism is the LACK OF BELIEF IN GODS. Saying atheists need as much faith to not believe in gods as much religious people need faith to believe in god is an oxymoron. It's like saying "not playing football is a sport".
@mhich yes i know how easy it is to twist words to make yourself seem like you have some kind of intelligence behind why you dont believe in any gods. but since no one has proven that there isnt a god, its still a faith. if you were at least halfway honest with yourself you can understand what im talking about. "i believe there are no gods." would be a perfect example of atheism. i sure as hell dont see any proof, so if you cant prove it, its not a fact, its a belief. but ofc you dont see that.
@nashnwo1234 It's not up to atheists to prove the non existence of gods. The reason why most atheists don't believe in gods is because there's no evidence that proves their existence. Most atheists don't claim being sure gods don't exist. Believers on the other hand claim to know for sure gods are real, so it's up to them to prove that. The burden of proof lies on the ones making the claim that gods are real.
@nashnwo1234 For example: I believe in fairies while you don't. I keep saying fairies are real. You ask me how I'm sure they're real and I answer because I have faith they exist. Then you ask me if I have any evidence of their existence, if I saw one or if I have one in my house to show you or something. I answer "no". You say you don't believe in fairies and then I tell you to prove their non existence.
@nashnwo1234 It's not up to you to prove fairies don't exist; it's up to me to prove they exist after all I'm the one making the claim fairies are real. The reason why - in the example - you don't believe in fairies because there's no evidence of their existence. It's the same thing with me: the reason why I don't believe in gods is because there's no evidence of their existence.
@nashnwo1234 Gods are mythical creatures until proved otherwise. But it's not up to me to prove "gods don't exist". It's up to those who believe and claim to know gods are real to prove their claim is correct. I never claimed "I know for sure gods don't exist". If I claimed that, then I agree with you I would have to prove - without a shadow of doubt - that gods don't exist. Which I never did.
@mhich heres a little religion 101 for you too, mr 101 guy: religions are based on, and revolve around faith. anyone claiming they have proof of the existence of a creator/god are wrong, and they arent speaking on behalf of (at least in the bibles case) their religion. they're nuts, much like a lot of atheists who are nuts, and attempt to make their religion of not believing in a god sound like its backed by science. so no, its not our duty to prove anything regarding god, sounds more like yours
@nashnwo1234 Now, saying atheism is a belief system, well...it's not. For a system to be a belief system it's necessary the BELIEF IN SOMETHING. Etimology 101: atheism comes from the term "atheos". "A" means denial, lack; "theos" means god. Atheos means "no god". Considering the meaning of thos terms, atheism is the lack of belief in gods; it doesn't mean "knowing for sure gods don't exist".
@mhich you spelled etymology wrong (acting intelligent 101: spell correctly). big wasted attempt to appear intelligent. next time you memorize some information off of wikipedia to sound intelligent you may wanna make sure you spell the words right. it destroyed your credibility here.
on a side note to all the normal atheists who accept the mystery of their beliefs, tell your dumbo peers to stop acting like they are atheists due to scientific facts. mr mhich just proved that they/you are not.
@nashnwo1234 Remember this: believing =/=knowing. Agnosticism has to do with "not knowing" and atheism "not believing". But agnosticism is not mutually exclusive about god's existence. Someone can be agnostic about reincarnation and past lives, alien abduction, homeopathy, astrology, tarot, palm reading,etc.
God is nothing more than a puppet that proud fools wear on their hands to seem authoritative on things they know absolutely jack shit about. That's all "He" has ever been.
@rnalithe00 this coming from a person who makes fun of the belief in something that has never been disproven. anti-scientific if you ask me. poor clueless atheists, always so angry and bitter that their lives have no meaning.
@nashnwo1234 The idea that there is no god has not been disproven either, so if you ask ME, you are a hypocrite for not only attacking atheism, but all atheists and assuming that we are all angry and bitter (as if your words are full of joy and sunshine--again, hypocritical).
@rnalithe00 right, as you just admitted there is no science behind your belief, or lack of belief, however you want to twist it. its just another shitty religion, and youre just another random atheist who got indirectly insulted and decided to attempt to toss some name calling in along with the usual sarcasm in an attempt to 1 up my comment and make me look like the fool. basically im saying youre no better than me, which should be as insulting towards you as it gets.
@nashnwo1234 Do you actually have something to say in rebuttal to my original point? Why are you not just as hostile towards people who use "god" as an excuse for their bigotry and paranoia? Are atheists really the problem here? What exactly are we doing that you have a problem with?
@coolarrow737 Credulous dumbass. Even the bible says nobody goes to heaven or hell until they're dead and judged (not that that's really going to happen either).
@coolarrow737 ok you say your not a weirdo or a nut then whip this out ..quote "You who mock the Lord Jesus Christ and do not repent before your death with a sincere heart will surely burn in hell for all eternity." and you know this to be true because of the way you have interpreted a book that has been translated into 100's of different languages over the past 2000 years.....ok, sure I have some swamp land for ya 2
@alunrichardson by the way, I like your argument ( even though I disagree ). You and most of the commenters here seem respectful and interested in my replies. I hope my comments are taken as respectful too.
@alunrichardson My belief is if you believe in nothing, you belief in something (maybe not some being). Whether they are the same or different, "belief", "trust" and "faith" are all based on evidence. Almost everything you are aware of, is a result of cause and effect. Our brains not preprogrammed at birth. Experiencing evidence (cause and effect) via our 5 senses is what shapes our "reason". Maybe I've been reading too much Immanuel Kant. He can drive you crazy, but I do recommend it.
@ESPxTele I think we are splitting hairs. If we bring the definition of "belief", I think their will be more splitting. I fully understand your point about needing NO faith to not believe in something that has no evidence. However, I don't agree. Like I said before, the absence of evidence, is not evidence for absence.
@alunrichardson you have the upper hand, for sure. In Webster's Dictionary, there are 41 different definitions for "trust". All I can say is that "faith" is very closely related to "trust". If anyone prefers to use the word "trust" and thinks I am mixing it up with "faith", I really have no argument to convince you otherwise. It's just splitting hairs.
Im not sure what is more dispicable...the constant expletives from this "comic", the story telling of a soldier being killed in the line of duty, the notion that evolution is "fact", or the constant applause this man receives from the apparent ignorant crowd........repent before its too late.
@fredriknorand I agree with you that one should not put their faith in religion. But I disagree that atheism is important to anyone but the adversary. he'll convince many that there is no GOD but soon GOD will come and there will be nowhere to hide. As for me, my faith and trust goes to JESUS. Without HIM I have nothing. With HIM I have everything. We don't have to agree but I will pray for you anyway.

@ESPxTele If somebody is correct when they say there is 1 more open seat in a major football stadium, and you can't find the evidence that it exists, who is right? They know there is 1 more seat. You have the lack of belief that there is 1 more seat. Based on lack of empirical evidence, you need faith to believe there is no open seat. You need faith in everyday life. How come you don't cringe at every car coming at you, when there is only a small double yellow line separating oncoming traffic?
@ESPxTele You've just explained the Agnostic point of view. But why stop investigating, because you don't know? If that was always the case, we'd still assume the sun revolves around the Earth. I don't feel like we're flying through space as fast as we are. My comment was that Atheism takes faith, because u can't "know" there is no god. You can only "believe" there is no god. If nobody ever introduced the notion that there is a god, only then could you have lack of a belief of God.
@ESPxTele There are some things I don't believe, as a result of my leap of faith (which is not a continuous leaping, by the way). But I am allowed to be as skeptical as I want. I can leave God out of the equation and scientifically investigate anything. Christians and Atheists are looking at the same scientific results. Its really philosophy after that. How can we define reality only on physical evidence? If there is a super natural being, how could we expect to discover it physically?
@ESPxTele that's exactly right. Thinking of the world as a minimalist enterprise with only 5 senses is so profoundly reductive and one-dimensional I can't imagine using that pathetic criticism of yours even if I were an atheist. It takes certain character to elevate one's mind beyond the daily, tangible boundaries; and that's a form of intelligence atheists are unbound to.
Not sure which is the least funny. If I were dumb enough to be an atheist, I'd at least come up with something that isn't generic/superficial/unoriginal/gratuitous/uncalled for and plain shitty.
In this world, even if you say "Christ is stupid shit", as long as you insult your own religion you're hilarious.
If you insult somebody else's you're an intolerant bigot.
@yoe91 You dont need to be dumb to be an atheist, it´s actually just the other way around. To be religious you have to be ignorant, have blind faith, to believe in magical claims without any evidence.... And at least atheists dont threat people with eternal torture just because they dont believe in the same things as they do.
@carl1212 He was pointing out how uncaring the military can be when they come to your door to tell you your son or daughter died in the line of duty as a result of "Friendly Fire". He was Joking that they offer a TV or a Recliner as a consolation prize for their childs death. Of course you really don't get a Tv or Recliner. It's just a joke.
I was just thinking about how David Cross is the only comedian I can think of who comes close to Bill Hicks in terms of subject material. Then I stumbled upon this. How NEAT!
People always talk about facts and needing concrete evidence. However, nobody KNOWS where we came from or where we go, when we die. That means Atheism is just as much an ideology as Christianity. Atheism requires faith. Atheists believe that there is no creator, because there is no evidence. But the absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Any scientist will tell you that.
@TheDamnIrish Its true that "lack of belief" is not the same as "believing in something". But "lack of belief in God" is the same as "believing there is no God". (I think that was what you're getting-at). If you can't prove there is no God, then it takes faith to believe He doesn't exist.
@turkeypantz Bullshit. Atheism is an ideology like BALD is a hair color. Atheism is a religion like non-collecting stamps is a hobby. Want more analogies that point out how dumb you are? There is NO faith at all required to "be" an atheist. There shoudn't even BE the word "atheism." IS there a word for people who don't believe in the tooth fairy? Because I don't believe in that stupid shit either. Stop spreading your b.s. "line" that "atheism requires faith." What a crock. It
@TheOrcasRule Just for the record, I never said Atheism is a religion. Mentioning it is an ideology, was done because Atheism is a body of ideas (even if those ideas are different for every single Atheist). You may believe there is no god (believe in nothing). But you cannot be 100% certain, without proof that there is no god. You need evidence to KNOW there is no god. You need faith to BELIEVE there is no god.
@turkeypantz When there's infinite evidence that God does not exist and no evidence that he does (keep in mind, holy books are hearsay by nature, the "word of God" has always manifested as the word of a man), the answer becomes clear. Belief is only left for those who see a mountain of evidence and believe that mountain is not substantial enough to disprove what they wish was true.
Atheism isnt the belief in no gods, it's the lack of belief in gods.
If I tell you I have a unicorn in a box on my lap, do you have to have faith to not believe that? Or do you just...not believe it until I demonstrate it to be true?
"atheism" is the default position. Just like "A-loch Ness Monster-ism" is the default position of the loch ness monster. Everyone 'doesn't believe' something until it's proven to exist. That's how our brains work.
@BigLundi I understand your points, but I do have to have faith to believe that there IS NOT a unicorn in that box. I have to have faith to believe there IS a unicorn. Its been my "experience" that there are no unicorns anywhere. I could go on living my life, never seeing the inside of that box. However, without empirical evidence, I cannot know what is or isn't in that box. To "know", I need the box opened. To "believe", I need faith -based on my experience.
@turkeypantz No. You don' have to have faith that a unicorn is not in my box. There's no 'faith' about it. And besides, you don't jhave to ASSERT that there is no unicorn in my box to be an a-unocrn-in-my-boxist. Even if you do, simply looking will provide you with a higher standing ground, and a REASONED based position as to why you believe there is no unicorn in the box.
Sorry, atheism isn't faith based. Please stop trying to say it is, because as it's been explained to you 3 times now...no
@BigLundi If I can't see in that box, I can't "know" whats in that box (no matter how crazy the claim of the contents). It takes faith. I hope u are not mistaking faith for something that only goes with theism. If u don't have proof of the abilities of an airline pilot (credentials and background check etc), then you have to have faith that he is qualified to fly that plane. You don't "know" without proof. Even then, you have to have faith that this isn't the day he decides to kill himself.
@turkeypantz You don't "know" anything for sure. Nobody "knows" anything for sure, but we can have practical knowledge, and that's what I have, as an atheist.
@MickeyLWalker Well, I, as an atheist, don't have to define god. It's up to the person who believes in the being to define them. Some people tell me God is everything, I ask what's the difference between just saying Universe instead of God, some say God is Love, I ask why not just use Love instead of God. Either the definition is useless, or there's no reason to believe in the god defined. One of the two.
@BigLundi i agree sir. i havent found a word that substitues the word "god" well enough..... but it is as though i shouldnt even say the word god, because it is indeed useless to put what god is and what god does into any form. but anyways i think your comment was more about religion than definition. thanks for not getting pissy, have a good night

Science offers reasonable explanations to many of our questions, and science has cures for many aliments. Science isn't afraid to say it doesn't know and science isn't afraid to look for answers. Religion seeks to keep people in subjugation and claims that everything is the will of God. Religion demands obedience and punishes thinking.
Science seeks answers, religion looks for excuses

@TheFockerizer Science, or factual information looks to inform, while religion is a tool used to control the stupid.
Scientists seek answers, and clergymen do their best to get people to keep coming to their shows, to continue watching them. Sounds kinda like consumerism, intelligence-sapping entertainment and the government-controlled media.
You see where I'm getting at? It's not what people are doing or saying, it's what happens as a result of an action.

its sad how people are sitting here desperately trying to create analogies to take the focus off of the fact that you have to believe there is no god, or believe there is a god. either way you are working off of a belief. but as i said, atheists come off as insane, and these sad attempts to reject the fact that its not just a lack of belief in a creater, but also a belief that there is no creator are only making you sound more irrational.

@nashnwo1234 Faith is when you BELIEVE in something even when it doesn't have evidence to prove what you BELIEVE to be real. Atheism is the LACK OF BELIEF IN GODS. Saying atheists need as much faith to not believe in gods as much religious people need faith to believe in god is an oxymoron. It's like saying "not playing football is a sport".
mhich 8 months ago
@mhich yes i know how easy it is to twist words to make yourself seem like you have some kind of intelligence behind why you dont believe in any gods. but since no one has proven that there isnt a god, its still a faith. if you were at least halfway honest with yourself you can understand what im talking about. "i believe there are no gods." would be a perfect example of atheism. i sure as hell dont see any proof, so if you cant prove it, its not a fact, its a belief. but ofc you dont see that.
nashnwo1234 8 months ago
@nashnwo1234 It's not up to atheists to prove the non existence of gods. The reason why most atheists don't believe in gods is because there's no evidence that proves their existence. Most atheists don't claim being sure gods don't exist. Believers on the other hand claim to know for sure gods are real, so it's up to them to prove that. The burden of proof lies on the ones making the claim that gods are real.
mhich 8 months ago
@nashnwo1234 For example: I believe in fairies while you don't. I keep saying fairies are real. You ask me how I'm sure they're real and I answer because I have faith they exist. Then you ask me if I have any evidence of their existence, if I saw one or if I have one in my house to show you or something. I answer "no". You say you don't believe in fairies and then I tell you to prove their non existence.
mhich 8 months ago
@nashnwo1234 It's not up to you to prove fairies don't exist; it's up to me to prove they exist after all I'm the one making the claim fairies are real. The reason why - in the example - you don't believe in fairies because there's no evidence of their existence. It's the same thing with me: the reason why I don't believe in gods is because there's no evidence of their existence.
mhich 8 months ago
@nashnwo1234 Gods are mythical creatures until proved otherwise. But it's not up to me to prove "gods don't exist". It's up to those who believe and claim to know gods are real to prove their claim is correct. I never claimed "I know for sure gods don't exist". If I claimed that, then I agree with you I would have to prove - without a shadow of doubt - that gods don't exist. Which I never did.

@mhich heres a little religion 101 for you too, mr 101 guy: religions are based on, and revolve around faith. anyone claiming they have proof of the existence of a creator/god are wrong, and they arent speaking on behalf of (at least in the bibles case) their religion. they're nuts, much like a lot of atheists who are nuts, and attempt to make their religion of not believing in a god sound like its backed by science. so no, its not our duty to prove anything regarding god, sounds more like yours

@nashnwo1234 Now, saying atheism is a belief system, well...it's not. For a system to be a belief system it's necessary the BELIEF IN SOMETHING. Etimology 101: atheism comes from the term "atheos". "A" means denial, lack; "theos" means god. Atheos means "no god". Considering the meaning of thos terms, atheism is the lack of belief in gods; it doesn't mean "knowing for sure gods don't exist".

@alunrichardson My belief is if you believe in nothing, you belief in something (maybe not some being). Whether they are the same or different, "belief", "trust" and "faith" are all based on evidence. Almost everything you are aware of, is a result of cause and effect. Our brains not preprogrammed at birth. Experiencing evidence (cause and effect) via our 5 senses is what shapes our "reason". Maybe I've been reading too much Immanuel Kant. He can drive you crazy, but I do recommend it.

@ESPxTele I think we are splitting hairs. If we bring the definition of "belief", I think their will be more splitting. I fully understand your point about needing NO faith to not believe in something that has no evidence. However, I don't agree.

If anyone prefers to use the word "trust" and thinks I am mixing it up with "faith", I really have no argument to convince you otherwise. It's just splitting hairs.

@ESPxTele If somebody is correct when they say there is 1 more open seat in a major football stadium, and you can't find the evidence that it exists, who is right? They know there is 1 more seat. You have the lack of belief that there is 1 more seat. Based on lack of empirical evidence, you need faith to believe there is no open seat. You need faith in everyday life. How come you don't cringe at every car coming at you, when there is only a small double yellow line separating oncoming traffic?

If nobody ever introduced the notion that there is a god, only then could you have lack of a belief of God.

@ESPxTele There are some things I don't believe, as a result of my leap of faith (which is not a continuous leaping, by the way). But I am allowed to be as skeptical as I want. I can leave God out of the equation and scientifically investigate anything. Christians and Atheists are looking at the same scientific results. Its really philosophy after that. How can we define reality only on physical evidence? If there is a super natural being, how could we expect to discover it physically?

People always talk about facts and needing concrete evidence. However, nobody KNOWS where we came from or where we go, when we die. That means Atheism is just as much an ideology as Christianity. Atheism requires faith. Atheists believe that there is no creator, because there is no evidence. But the absence of evidence is not evidence of absence. Any scientist will tell you that.

@TheOrcasRule Just for the record, I never said Atheism is a religion.

But you cannot be 100% certain, without proof that there is no god. You need evidence to KNOW there is no god. You need faith to BELIEVE there is no god.
turkeypantz 10 months ago
@turkeypantz When there's infinite evidence that God does not exist and no evidence that he does (keep in mind, holy books are hearsay by nature, the "word of God" has always manifested as the word of a man), the answer becomes clear. Belief is only left for those who see a mountain of evidence and believe that mountain is not substantial enough to disprove what they wish was true.

Atheism isnt the belief in no gods, it's the lack of belief in gods.
If I tell you I have a unicorn in a box on my lap, do you have to have faith to not believe that? Or do you just...not believe it until I demonstrate it to be true?
"atheism" is the default position. Just like "A-loch Ness Monster-ism" is the default position of the loch ness monster. Everyone 'doesn't believe' something until it's proven to exist. That's how our brains work.

Its been my "experience" that there are no unicorns anywhere. I could go on living my life, never seeing the inside of that box. However, without empirical evidence, I cannot know what is or isn't in that box. To "know", I need the box opened. To "believe", I need faith -based on my experience.
