  • Nothing if it ignores its own doctrines. "Thou shall not Kill" for example – is often ignored. But Atheist also kill – so that’s one thing they have in common.

  • What's good about religion?

    Almost Nothing...

  • Religion was made to keep people in order without the use of a strict police force that wouldn't work because the weak-minded people had strength in numbers. A big lie about a convincing utopia and a terrifying world of torture and how to get to either is pretty convincing for idiots. But, I can't lie, that without religion, there would have never been an Enlightenment or a Scientific Revolution. Both were very important, but religion is now hindering our progress.

  • @Superheavyweight Prove it cretin.

  • Racist!

  • He’s a fukcing nazi.

  • @Superheavyweight Yes, he clearly states he want to erase all jews from the face of the Earth!

  • England is a Christian state with loose Christians!

  • What was so good about the bronze axe in the bronze age?

  • What’s so good about western governance?

  • Pat Condell is an idiot.... it’s not like he’s exuberating intelligence by asking “what’s so good about Earth’s views on the afterlife”?

  • I've watched this video dozens of time . Pat Condell is a genius.

  • Christianity should only teach good morals, but I don't agree with all of them. I am an athiest, and I'm happy to die like one! I'm lost in my life

  • Religion is fucked, it strips off the human dignity and natural behaviors of human-kind, and also religion is responsible for every crime out there! It's mentally tormenting, trust me i'm not going to be a christian, i wasn't given a choice when i was young - and i want to leave my parents house since they have crucifix signs, and i want to leave and live like a natural, happy, healthy, rational human being! Fuck religion, the causes of misery and fear only for the selfish individuals!

  • @MrPainiscupcaek  absofuckinglutely!

  • הגבר החכם הצליח לשים את האצבע על מהות הדתות.

    הוא שכח לציין שהדתות הללו הן אמצעי מצויין לשליטה ולהעברת מזומנים מכיסנו לכיסם של כהני הדת הרמאים.

    Religions are a very good method for having power on the believers

    and to invert the cashflow to the pockets of priests

  • Thoroughly enjoyable vid,fantastic sarcasm....I'm off to listen to XTC's 'Dear god' to further cleanse my soul.

  • at last !a video i agree with..maybe you people are not all retarded after all as i was convinced

  • Pat for Prez..

  • What´s the purpose of the Jews ?

  • Look, being a Christian is not sad and it does not suck the life out of your soul. That's a disgusting thing to say, especially since you are not Christian. It's great to be Christian because, despite what you think, science helps creationism and destroys evolutionism.

  • Oh my gosh, seriously? CATHOLICS ARE NOT CHRISTIAN!!!!! They are Pseudo-christianity. They are breakoffs of religion just like Mormons. How many times do I have to say this?

  • What's good about religion? Well, I guess it gives people hope that they will acquire eternal life with a God that has committed genocide on several occasions.

    And hey, it's only at the cost of thousands of innocent people being stoned, hung, and burnt at the stake all throughout history. Oh, and suppressing technological advancement for a few hundred years.

    Become a Christian: because thinking for yourself is hard.

  • @Harvoable I believe that people who wish for eternal life haven't really thought through what it means. I honestly cannot think of a worse torture than eternal life, a life of eternal apathy and boredom!

  • where does this guy live  where all these religious groups are abusing him so badly

  • @geezer732 Earth.

  • The three moneytheistic religions you mean? D. Alexandr D'Maddalena

  • He forgot charity.....But its good to hear he's open minded to the positives.

  • @wotanicling Best comment on the thread !

  • @wotanicling I would agree with you brother. This old fool is hard to tolerate.

  • Comment removed

  • Keep up the good work Pat! Share more of your philosophy with us by uploading more videos.

  • @speak2sam What is his "philosophy" ?

  • I believe being Hindu-Atheist is better than being outright Atheist. With former you still have moral framework of religion and still get to reject concepts like god, heaven etc which do not go well with your logic.

  • @speak2sam so you're an atheist but you're afraid to admit it. people have that so called "critical thinking" that allows them to know good from bad, show love and respect. you don't need a religion to tell you these things.

  • @mkwlord But religion teaches good while an atheists opinion on what is good or bad and what option is best is subjective.

  • @polishguy994 Nonsense. The Golden Rule is older than all religions, and is the only reason why people need to be good. Watch the video of the Chilean freeway with a dog helping another injured dog.

  • @polishguy994 you're the perfect example of people when i say that theists need to get their brains reattached. so how come religion's option is objective but an atheist's is subjective? you say lust is a sin. i say it's a perfectly natural human behaviour and you can't do anything about that because that how humans, along with the great majority of other animals are. why your view is more correct than mine?

  • @mkwlord Because atheism doesn't teach morality (or anything really), therefore atheist's morals are subjective. Don't get me wrong, many atheists are kind and wonderful people, but many aren't. I'm not saying all Christians are great either , I'm just saying that christian teachings are great. You cant deny that the world would be better without violence, greed, and hate, and Christianity teaches that all those things are wrong. Also, just because something is natural doesn't make it right.

  • @polishguy994 read my previous comments and see why atheism doesn't teach morality. and it's funny that the most violent, greedy and hateful people on earth are christians and deeply theists anyway. and that's objective statistics and not fairytales. if something is natural, there's an important purpose behind it. if it's wrong according to christianity, that's another, subjective, story.

  • @mkwlord If they are violent, greedy, and hateful then they are not Christians.

  • @polishguy994 on the contrary, they are deeply theists obeying their religion.

  • @mkwlord Christianity teaches that violence, greed, and hate are wrong. If someone repeatedly does these things then they are not a christian, regardless of what they think.

  • @polishguy994 christianity also teaches homophobia and misogynism. and i'm quite sure that implies violence and hatred.

  • I consider myself Hindu-Atheist. I coined the term myself. Now you may wonder what it is. I reject those teachings of Hinduism that are inconsistent with science. eg. Reincarnation, Cow has 33 crore gods inside her, very concept that god exists and is supervising humans etc. However I love those teachings of Hinduism that do not conflict with science. eg. Do not lie, love your motherland, respect elders, respect teachers etc

  • I am from a Hindu family. When I was small I simply did not believe in the concept of god. My family tried hard to convince me that god, heaven, hell etc does actually exist. I embraced science and not the pseudo-science of religion.

  • Religion does have positive points, but the drawbacks far outweigh the benefits.

  • worst book of all time the bible god delusion

  • To be honest, I think some things about religion are good, and some are not. I'm Jewish.

    What I hate is the hypocricy - It tells to kill all gays, so why aren't the religious go and kill them all? Especially now that they are all in the same place at the same time - in gay bars.

    Personally, I don't think gays should be killed, but they should lay low and shut up, they are noisy and disguisting. But... The religious guy should hunt them, so... where is he?

  • Seculars claiming to know whats good about religion, oxymoron isn't it? I'm a vegetarian and hate meat but to be fair let me find a couple positives. Blood is red, I like red. What I like most about red is that it's not blue. What do you mean I can't be a doctor, I played operation just last night!

  • What is "Judaism" ?

  • Why is everyone typing paragraphs?

  • Just saying, Roman Catholics and Klu Klux Klan were and are not christian.

  • @AutomatonGames Yes they are jackass. They base them selves on that.

  • @Airsoftattack123 No. I am a Christian, for one we believe to Love your enemy, and thou shalt not murder. Thats like, the opposite of those two things.

  • @AutomatonGames That is bullshit and you know it. The Crusades, The inquisition, westbro, what about the pope agreeing with Hitler? Saying there "not Christan" dose not cut it. I guess ever atheist who is a dick is "not atheist."

    By the way "thou shall not kill" comes from Judaism, not Christianity. One of the many things you stole from Jewish culture.

  • @Airsoftattack123 No, whoever that is athiest but believes in the greek gods is not an athiest. Thats the exact equivelent of being a mass murderer, hater, plain out disgusting person and claiming to be a Christian (In which believes not to murder, not to hate, and to try to be as godlike as possible.) And no, Thou shalt not *MURDER* comes from the Bible, christian belief, written on 2 slabs of stone thousand of years ago. (Kill and murder are very different.)

  • @AutomatonGames No it fucking dose not. The 2 stones were the story of Moses when God gave him the 10 commandments on 2 pieces of stone. That was 2000 years before Christianity existed, it was apart of Judaism, not Christianity.

    I do not know how Greek Gods got into this. But your ignorant. Christianity, mostly the Catholic church has done a lot more harm then good. Up until recently. Christianity was at war with everything non-Christan for 2000 years, so cut the bullshit.

  • @Airsoftattack123 "dose" ha ha, and excuse me, Christianity existed since the begining of time according to the Christian belief, and people dont just invent a theory and say "I invented this theory before I was born!" Back then Judaism and Christianity were the same those thousands of years until they branched into their own. And Moses is appart of the Christian belief, its in the freaking bible.

  • @Airsoftattack123 "dose" ha ha, and excuse me, Christianity existed since the begining of time according to the Christian belief, and people dont just invent a theory and say "I invented this theory before I was born!" Back then Judaism and Christianity were the same those thousands of years until they branched into their own. And Moses is appart of the Christian belief, its in the freaking bible.

  • @AutomatonGames I don't know what mommy and daddy have been telling you. But if your referring to the story of Adam and Eve, that was not Christianity, that story was written by the ancient Hebrews whom were NOT Christian. Christianity did not exist til Jesus came along. Before that Christianity did not exist. In the first century, some believed that Jesus was the Messiah, some did not. The ones that did came to be known as Christians. Please educate your self so I don't have to do it for you.

  • @Airsoftattack123 So you think jesus came and then people were like "WOAH BRO, LETS WRITE A BIBLE!" And to let you know Hebrews believes what christians believe so that means they are practically the same thing. And if what you are saying is right, then that really changes nothing! The belief shared by the hebrews and christians has lived on since God has existed (which was, you know, forever)

  • @AutomatonGames *facepalm*

  • @Airsoftattack123 *napalm lolol*

  • What's good about religion? Noting!

  • @Markov11989 Whats good about atheism and the "THEORY" of evolution? Nothing! The NORMAL Christians mind their own buisness, and live life spreading the gospel to those who WANT it. The ones who are extremests and pretend to be christians who blow up buildings or go around funirals making fun of people are not christians. Athiests who spend 100% of their freetime pissing off christians minding their own buisness are extremist athiests.

  • @AutomatonGames Stop fucking with me man, Your just like my family "The (Theory) of Evolution", No Evolution is a fact, bro, And I do agree, anybody atheist/ theist who try's to shove his/her X to anybodies face is not only a extremist but also intellectually dishonest. Yes is true There are many people who say I am Atheist/Christian and go around being rude to anyone they see, this is unfair to the other person who is a wonderful person. So don't generalize. Try making friends...it fun.

  • @Markov11989 Try living outside of the internet. I dont need internet friends since I have friends from, get this, "REAL LIFE". You should try it, along with grammar.

  • @AutomatonGames You missed the point

  • @Markov11989 No, Im pretty sure I wasnt. You went off the point, leading me off the point, but you didnt relise YOU'RE the one who started it. I wasnt saying "Hey bros, evolution is a theory" I was saying "Leave christians alone jerks, go mind your own buisness, we leave you alone!" And no, evolution isnt a fact. There isnt enough proof for any of it, give me ONE good exanple of evolution that has occured?

  • @AutomatonGames "The ones who are extremests and pretend to be christians who blow up buildings or go around funirals making fun of people are not christians" Says who? You? Many people throughout history knew the bible much better than you and managed to reconcile this with their violent and bloody actions against peoples of different faith and those without. Why were they wrong?

    "No True Scotsman Fallacy" Look it up.

  • @AutomatonGames "give me ONE good exanple of evolution that has occured?" I doubt you would accept any evidence or examples, or understand it. You made the mistake of combing atheism and evolution when they are not connected, you made the mistake of expecting them to be 'good', so you show your ignorance & hostility and the fact that according to your own logic you are an abnormal christian not minding your own business. Hypocrite. Get an education. Evolution is the backbone of modern biology.

  • @AutomatonGames "Athiests who spend 100% of their freetime pissing off christians minding their own buisness are extremist athiests." What's 'extreme' about talking? Or are you just that offended by the very reminder that atheists exist? "Normal" christians mind their own business? Well that makes you abnormal then, despite the very fact that bible orders everyone to 'spread the word', convert as many, push it into people's faces and throats...

  • Oh my God! I am speechless. How can someone say so many offenses in six minutes without using one inappropriate word? He is a Master in Sarcasm. No, I am wrong. He is a Doctor in Sarcasm. My respects even if I am a religious person and your detrimental speech against religion does not affect me.

  • the muslim way of prayer is the original jewish and christian prayer

  • @timetochilli bullshit

  • @Airsoftattack123 yes it is

  • @timetochilli bullshit

  • @Airsoftattack123 yh ur dumb i no reseach history mate all religions were effected by eachother muslims pray like that because they learnt off christians and the original first christians whos blood line still exists and still speak aramaic in places like syria still pray dat way and the women cover up islam is a copy of the two above and christianity is a copy of judaism. they took things from other disciplines and mixed it up

  • Buddhism is not a religion it is a path. A path that It just so happens Jesus picked up after having gone missing for 30 years. Ask any knowledgeable Tibetan and they will tell you Jesus signed in at school in Tibet under the name ʿĪsā fir many years.

  • I'm surprised he found that many good things about religion. In total!

  • I like Muslim's their food.

  • @victoneter Muslims have foods?

  • @Markov11989 Kebab, it doesn't has pig meat and it comes from Arabic countries so I guess Muslim must have made it.

  • @victoneter didn't our ancestors BBQ shit in the jungle or whatever, you know "lets kabab that elephant there" or what have you.

  • @Markov11989 Well that isn't really kebab but I Googled the origin of it and it turns out the ancient Greece made it, so yeah.....

    I really don't know anything else I like about Muslims.....

  • @victoneter Greece, ah... interesting

  • You forgot to mention the ancient presence of philosophies of Atheism & Pantheism in the collective system termed as Hinduism.

  • The kabbalists have been saying for years that once the human race evolves to a certain point, religion will no longer be a necessary moral framework for people to live by.

    From a Jewish standpoint, atheists are simply ahead of their time. No wonder they're so frusterated from waiting for everyone else to catch up!!

  • My left hear enjoyed hearing this.

  • Brilliant!

  • Religion is too absurd to last forever and it will come to an end... but again, there's religion and there's faith , stop confusing them ...

  • Pat, from the bottom of my Shi'a Muslim heart, I want to thank you for the effort you've made in this video.

    How about another?

  • wow, even in video where you should focus on good things about religion, you said much more bad than good things and just kept hating

  • @gogolplex74 thats what his point was... there are very few things good about religion. it causes war, persecution, and many other problems.

  • @HerroImNathan no it doesn't, not directly

  • @gogolplex74 still too this day, catholics persecute other religions, gays. and atheists. there have been countless wars caused by difference in religion.

  • I love your sense of humor man, its a blessing...pardon the pun.

  • "to absurd to last...." Amen.....

  • But people take it and make it into somethign evil!

  • relegion is supposed to bring people together!

  • Your My Hero .

  • "Desert Dogmas". "God of the Desert".

    Thank you Pat for coining these terms!

  • sucks to have no life doesnt it my bitter atheist friends?

  • @Szekler11 Just because you can't live without your crutch doesn't mean we need it, too.

  • @ThePsychoReturns Its more of a life support machine than a crutch

  • @Thechristiancullen It's more of a disease than either of them.

  • @Szekler11

    A person that gets his/her guidance from a set of silly fairy tales don't get to call someone out for having "no life".

  • @Szekler11 I'm an atheist.  Does that mean I have no life?

  • Post christian British would like to thank oxbridge atheists and liberal anglicans for Britain turning into Mogadishu.

  • Organised Religion is a crock, nobody needs it.

    Jesus said-"you have ONE teacher, ME!" (Matt 23:10)

  • u seem like an intelligent ..enough man what are your views on racism?

  • @750billy

    There is one video where he told racists to fuck off but I can't remember what its name was.

    He has talked about racism in a bunch of videos and basically, he hates it 100%.

  • I liked it when you said vegetarians is civilized, I am one myself, like you even more now

  • @xClaraJaynex You like Condell ?

  • @kolkrabe19 Yeah he makes good valid points, I like his honesty, I like that he's not sugar coating anything

  • @xClaraJaynex No. He is sugar coating about the Jews.

  • @xClaraJaynex

    He is in fact, a vegetarian himself. He saw a deer being butchered and he became a vegetarian after that. No eggs, no fish, no cheese as far as I know.

  • The True Saints of the Judeo-Christian order of Ethiopia not the Vatican, will be there 2 fight against Evil when it rises again. 2 save U me UR Atheist friends n this dumb 1 that posted a comment b4 me again again.

    Oh yh, that's good wat "religion" did 4 the world, stood up n fought not sittn down n talkn alot of nonsense.

    Peace n blessn

    Misgana

  • But, don't worry u c.

  • Hmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm­mmmmmmmmmmmm

  • @TagRation Not true at all. Only the traditional ones, especially those born into Buddhism in parts of certain countries believe in supreme beings. Most Buddhists actually know about the Buddha's teachings and do not worship him or anyone else. We do believe in other planes of existence, but we as human beings have nothing to do with them when we are humans. Rebirth relates to this. Peace (:

  • Most Buddhists do believe in G(g)od(s).

  • I dont have anything against Religion.after all we cant prove that god exists or not,and the same is with death/paradise/hell(we dunno what happens after Death),however i think that most Religious people are Conformists,wchich is never too good for freedom and justice(and things like Racism,Collective guild and all that shit are born from it)

    Pardon my English if i made some mistakes

  • Amazing how many people are unable to hear & know the truth when it is spoken. So many people are blind, deaf & dumb.

  • Toe-Curling, pseudo-intellectual attempt at irony. I don't disagree with much, if anything, that he says, but his delivery - the I'm-so-clever-and-funny-and-ir­onic-and-preachy tone - just gets on my nerves. I've no idea who he is, but I'm guessing a waspish, ageing-with-regret gay man with too much time on his hands and an over-inflated sense of his own importance.

  • watch?v=o9ktS2U53Qg Write "Logical Evidences for Islam" and watch it...

    There is A Creator. There a religion. Islam is the true religion.

  • You can't have it both ways, Pat. You yearn for sanity and the purge of Islam from the West but the very system you approve of is based on Judeo Christian values. Remember it's the Godless Marxists who have brought the muzzies to the West to divide and conquer, so really it's question of the lesser of two "evils".

  • I learned this video off by heart and got an A* in my English public speaking exam :D

    (i think that my English teacher is Athiest)

  • You noticed he is praising the kosher parasite religion ?

  • "I'm still optimistic enough to believe that religion is just too absurd to last forever and that sooner or later humanity's collective intelligence will rise just enough for us to see it for what it actually is". Yeah don't hold your breath...

  • Pat, your atheism videos are redundant. Please make more political videos your ideas are pure genius there too :-))

  • love the irony

  • i don't find enough good about religion to even give it the title of good, the fact that evangelism turned africa into a homophobic gay murdering continent along with the caribbeans, not to mention the church indoctrinated ban on condom use causing the aids plague over them, even tho they keep having children to spite it, sending children dying before they turn 9..willingly wich is the worst part. all the horrible things and blind denial to science is what makes me mad.
