What was that "Ram" with babies(?) around it?? Does anybody know? The face looked...human!

[reasonnotgod]

do not try to eat lunch in front of this video....

[Silverlychon]

hahahahahahaha and they say that god has given humanity free will, then pray that he will break that free will and make you christian. lol i cant stand the way most christians overlook important aspects of their own religious philosophy.

[Cootabux]

Silver...

Whats scary is that most of them so readily accept Christianity's tenants! What is it that allows one to accept such a sadistically evil entity as the Christian god? God's mentality & evil deeds are not secret, not hidden, yet the average christian will put on that plastic smile & quickly start telling you about the glory & wonders of their all-loving, all-forgiving god, while carefully omitting the horrific threats we R faced with if we don't love this "all-forgiving" god back!

[AnimalSupremacy]

nice video,but the pics are just too brutal!

[TMH23]

Another excellent video!

The monologue is great, but often drowned out by screaming guitars. If you have versions of your videos without the music, could you please post them?

5 star!

[SomeDigitalBlasphemy]

An excellent video. :D

[GaleAnders]

THIS IS ONE SERIOUSLY GOOD VIDEO!

I have always found it to be profoundly violating when someone says they will pray for you even though you have clearly expressed your disbelief in what ever it is they're selling.

What arrogance to commit PRAYER-RAPE on another human being just from the belief that having an imaginary friend elevates you above all others.

[cheesothegreat]

You Arrogant Bastard!!! Hahahahahaha

[BGBazz]

...And Part II continues the series with another piece deserving the Epic Win sticker!

Consider yourself stickered!

Personally, I'm not an Atheist. I desire wholeheartedly not to be labelled, or at least if you're going to apply some label to me, then Biker will do, thanks. Don't need more than one.

There's nothing wrong with being religious, provided you do it in private and wash your hands afterwards.

Keep up the good work..

[Th1sWasATriumph]

Biker sounds good. I'm stickered as Epic Win, you're labelled as Biker. Deal.

I like your phrasing at the end . . . I've no problem with beliefs, if they don't leave the head of the believer and get stuck to my teeth.

I wish I had more videos in this series to send you to. But I'm working on it. Check out the meljane1970 one for ultimate pwnage.

cheers!

Great Channel and Great video but can you please not but actual pictures of shit in. It makes me feel a bit sick and loose consentration on the importance of what you are saying.

Sorry that I had to find something to moan about when this really is on of the best channel's I have found on youtube for a while.

[Th1sWasATriumph]

Oh, I've learnt my lesson. No more poo, unless it's super artistic. I guess poo isn't too disturbing to me, but I'm not everyone.

I'm glad you liked it aside from that! More coming soon.

[eternalundylnglove]

this is brilliant work

where were you hiding?

[Th1sWasATriumph]

Thanks a lot, I'm glad you didn't take me whoring my video under your Condell one the wrong way!

I was hiding behind my own laziness, but I'm working on more stuff now. Tell your friends and your enemies, I need to get, y'know . . . famous. Do you know youtube's email address for general complaints, questions etc? I shall have need of it soon.

-T

[eternalundylnglove]

not in the least!

any artistic/free thought work is always welcomed on my channel

more people need to see your work

plug away!

let me find the link to the complaints and i'll message you

[Th1sWasATriumph]

Cheers man, I have ambitious plans . . . I searched for a while, but could only find endless forms and vagueness. No email address. They're cunning like that. I'll be able to put up the video in question in a couple hours if I can get the email by then.

[trevorbuvyer]

Points taken, however generating a video from bitterness and anger are difficult to take seriously. I look forward to future works.

[airandfingers]

awesome! who was that girl who got 560000000 fail quotient?

[Th1sWasATriumph]

Catherine Tate. A truly execrable British comedienne who somehow has her own show. Don't go searching for her, if you value your very life . . .

[AndromedasWake]

Catherine Tate = 10 fail, divided by zero.

Great video, I've never thought quite so much about the implications of prayer (particularly the mind and intentions of the individuals conducting prayer). Keep it up!

[subach]

I'm getting sucked in... by fail... it's a ...

failularity! We're all doomed!

[Emiteal]

Nicely wordified!

[subach]

I command thee, maketh more videos.

[Th1sWasATriumph]

New (proper) microphone arriving today or tomorrow, and I'll be working on small concise topics so I don't lose energy in editing. I hope a couple 2\3 minute videos are ok for you?

[subach]

Awesome!

[Th1sWasATriumph]

Microphone arrived! I need to get people to suggest oddities and fallacies in religion that I can fuck with. Any suggestions? I have plenty of ideas, but I want to be user-friendly and all that shit . . .

[subach]

The idea that god can actually a source of morality is a good one. I did a video a few weeks ago basically arguing that he(if he actually existed) only commands. Then there's the idea of god supplying purpose or meaning, basically if one subscribes to that they'd basically be a slave. Anyway I'm sure whatever you come up with is good though.

[Th1sWasATriumph]

Yeah, in my first video I explore it a bit, how it's imposed morality adopted out of the fear of what would happen if you DON'T adopt it. I believe I said that religious altruism is about as convincing as a good hard mugging.

Will be nice to record little bits instead of long videos. I have a topic I like that's basically this: for religion to be a factor in court cases (like people getting let off by reason of religious tolerance), God has to be adequately proved legally.

Fun.

[MarlinBeta]

I'll second that. Your videos have some excellent points in them that, while not completely fresh and new, have a nice sting in them that'll ruffle some feathers. Keep up the good work.

[Tolrias]

o dude sick, can you please not use shit in the video, it made me throw up same goes for the Ben Stein pics :)))

[spotteri01]

Agreed. "eugenics for the soul" is an excellent metaphor.

[TomatoBreadOrgasm]

Oh come on, Dawkins has SOME degree of fail. Pat Condell, however, is an excellent metric.

Highlights: That picture, "being able to use words good," "Why is everyone in this picture white?", and "seriously, just... Fuck you" to Jesus 2.

[Th1sWasATriumph]

Nah, if Condell has no fail then neither does Dawkins! I can see why people might have some problems with him, but as far as I'm concerned he propels himself with a jet of awesome from his ass. Cheers for the comment, much appreciated. Although that picture isn't mine, it's an advert for some kind of beer and I thought it was suitably l33t.

[TomatoBreadOrgasm]

Okay, fair enough, I guess I just like Condell more. If he is jet-propelled, though, I'd like to know where he got the cephalopod DNA.

[Th1sWasATriumph]

Condell is super good, his delivery and coherence live to the camera is frightening. But he doesn't do the Dawkins thing of combining science with his zeal, at least not so much, and I like the people who do that as it's more concrete ammunition against creationists etc. I intend to get some meagre science going on in future videos.

[ThePowerFunt]

I loved the angle on that: eugenics for the soul..lovely.
