Even though the religiosity of some people may be the result of mental retardation, isn't it possible many religious people just lack the critical thinking skills required to understand the philosophical reasons why there is no god?
No , they simply suffer from a disorder not unlike schizophrenia that nobody seems to see. One good example is Francis Collins a scientist who believe resurrecting zombies that save with blood are real..Here is a very interesting video for you. A lecture by Dr Boghossian of Portland Univ. In Jan 2012...He talks about the Psychosis of Faith.

@calpurnpiso Boghossian's presentation was brilliant. He doesn't explicitly say it like this, but he seems to agree religiosity often results from a lack of critical thinking, not necessarily irreversible mental retardation. That's why he elaborates the unreliability of faith to establish truth; he's teaching critical thinking skills. Anyway, thank-you for all the videos you make; I appreciate what you're trying to do even though we may disagree slightly.
and the reason he doesn't say it directly is because he is not a neuroscientists, geologist, evolutionary biologist, psychiatrist, ancient religion Historian, archaeologist, geneticists, astrophysicist,etc
To see the whole picture it is best not to have a single PhD this give tunnel vision
The key to it all is understanding we're evolved mutated primates that create bizarre metamagical beliefs at root of Religion & schizophrenia with the Brain
Religious people fail to realize that the God they are experiencing is only chemical reactions. I can make you see God if I dose you with LSD, the same thing with religion only the process is self induced.
Oye Marica what part of Blind Intellectual Atheists vs Mentally Impaired Christians & God Believers didn't you understand
Didn't you know fool this video is NOT about me but about the FACT we are product of a FUCK not a stork pedazo de mierda estupida
Did you see my video with a bag over your head or are your parents brother & sister? You are clueless to the fact if you belief in Zombie God you have a problem with your brian,just like schizophrenics. Sorry truth hurts Bye
FYI, I block ChristPsychosis infected ignorant imbeciles that discuss ME rather MESSENGER instead of discussing what my video presents which is ALL based on empirical facts with the EVIDENCE to back them up, I don't put up with ZombieGod theotards stuck in the Middle Ages...FYI this is the 21st Century not the 12th. Operating your malfunctioning brain will prove me correct...so, either put up or shut up..get educated a brain is an awful thing to waste. Get well soon.
I'm sorry, but as a fellow atheist i CANNOT get behind this kind of thinking...the majority of religious people are not insane, the majority of them are people who are merely ignorant to the facts of how everything we see around us came to be so they fill in the gaps with god. Saying that all people who are religious are psychotic is just as ignorant as a religious person saying that all atheists are "baby eating, god deniers"
You mentally healthy aka atheist? LOL..you are too ignorant to understand the BRAIN is the creator of the Bizarre Metamagical Beliefs at the ROOT of ALL religious faith & also the ROOT of neurological disorders like SCHIZOPHRENIA. When they are accepted asa TRUE by the educated it is sign of Brain DISORDER. Study neurology & get EDUCATED before confirming you ignorance. What I say has EVIDENCE to back it up. I'm only a Messenger, fool
Jörg was born in ChristPsychosisNazi infected family his brain susceptible to the FaithPsychosis syndrome unable to reject the ZombieChristNazi concepts
The neurological anomaly made him embrace the Austrian remnants of NaziPsychosis( is an ReligioPolitical mixture of ChristianCatholicism, ChristianLutheranism & Roman Empire Religion so called paganism)
Constantine in 325 created Catholic(univrsal) Christianity from CaesarCult, killing ChrstKillers Jews,pagan et all. Mental

Religion is simply organizes schizophrenia dumbass. Let me operate your brain & I'll make you see gods, demons et al

GodBelievers are sick deluded theotarded people.This is 21st C not12

@calpurnpiso my great concern is that I read in newspaper here in arizona that they are planning to have bible studies in the schools. I truly feel sick about it. I was raised in church although never was very religious & i took my son few times to church when he was small toddler. I do not want my son to be brainwashed the same way I was. I dont ever think this bill will pass, however, i Will not allow my son attend to it.
For this very reason we mentally healthy aka atheists specially the INTELLECTUALS depicted in my video, MUST define Religious FAITH as a neurological DISORDER and ATHEISM as SANE THINKING..
If This is NOT done the Christian nuts will be FREE to do anything they want. i,e the GOP, TEA PARTY, all the Churches, Family "research" council etc...these LUNATICS that believe in a resurrected ZOMBIE are not link to schizophrenics who have the SAME beliefs.
@calpurnpiso I don't think that all God belief is a disease, just the people who say they have a personal relationship and/or talk to God. The reason I say this is because I believe that somewhere in the universe aliens exist, just because of the odds, there is no evidence but I believe it, on the other hand I don't think that I can talk to aliens or that they abduct people.
I borrowed your term "Christophrenia." Hope you don't mind. So, if this is a problem with the wiring in the brain, then how can it be cured? Can the brain reroute neuronal pathways, IOW, can the brain reprogram itself, or can it be reprogrammed? Or do we just have to live with whatever brain we happen to be born with. 81% of America are theists, 75% of which call themselves Christian. So this is a huge problem. If it's a virus embedded in human DNA maybe even an insurmountable problem. Thoughts?
@DoNotCiv i feel better now, because sometimes i have the same type of thoughts. Sometimes I think once people is exposed to these imaginaries fable when they are children (their brain is not formed yet), it become difficult to erase these beliefs because became wired in the brain. It is just my perception. I grow up in the church & it is so difficult to stop believe in this. My 9 year son is science inclined separate fact from fiction & still belive in santa claus, tooth fairy.
Please be my guess, you can borrow ANYTHING you want from my videos, just give me credit. All the best friend..We must fight these ChristPsychosis infected morons, and OPEN the eyes of Blind scholar Atheist that do not see there is NO DIFFERENCE between the irrational bizarre metamagical beliefs at the ROOT of all religion FAITH & schizophrenia.
What part the BRAIN creates the MIND dumbass? Get educate, get e clue of LEARN science & see my video after you get your brain fixed. My video is only STUPID to uneducated fools with their heads stuck up their ass. BYE, I block non sequiturs. Get well soon. I do not put up with uneducated morons. Gehirn gestoert
I care for ChristPsychotics, CORRUPT the mind of children by teaching their deluded bizarre metamagical beliefs.It makes people sadomasochistic psychopaths..after all their god was torture, then killed to SAVE with his blood. Stupid psychotic beliefs that keep American stuck in the Middle Ages. If they were only annoying I wouldn't care, but the deluded morons insist in imposing their neurological infection on the young & ignorant & feeble minded.Missionaries make my point. ;-)
I don't think there's anything wrong with having an opinion that there is a creator being. The lack of distinction between opinion and truth is the issue. That's not something limited to the religious. If a person isn't willing to accept that a belief is an opinion, I doubt any amount of practical fact will bridge the gap.
"I don't think there's anything wrong with having an opinion that there is a creator being. The lack of distinction between opinion and truth is the issue. "
Did I say it was? Children have an opinion(a BELIEF)Tooth Fairy is REAL & Schizophrenics have an opinion(A BELIEF)that Aliens placed implants in their brain
@calpurnpiso Opinions aren't truth. That's the point.
Everyone has different experiences and assigns probability to claims based on the evidence provided by their experience. If everyone in a person's life who has exhibited trustworthiness makes the same claim of an unprovable thing, the options are to put faith in the claim or dismiss the trustworthiness of all those people based on the unprovable. Emotion often plays a part. What part of the brain is an emotional off-switch?
Hey Calpurnpiso, can you enable video response on this video? I want to explain something to you in a video tomorrow. I want to explain a couple of things to you about this issue. Is that alright?
You sometimes word it nicely to christians, it doesn't sink in their thick skulls. Sometimes you need to smack them with reality really hard for them to understand not to try to shove that shit onto you. Too many atheists online just sit there and refute christians, I usually just tell them to fuck off and seek therapy.
Some of the heavy metal music made by atheists really hurt the christians' feelings. I find it to sometimes be just unorganized noise but sometimes clever attacks on christians. I really believe that no christian on Earth follows their bible 100% (or even 90%) but they really enjoy telling you how YOU have to follow it. My family hates me because I insult christianity any time they ask me to pray when at family holidays. I'm not going to say "no thank you", I say "don't speak of that shit to me"
They are sick people like cancer patients etc, not subhuman...if you suddenly get cancer, or alzheimer are you a subhuman?..schizophrenics or TL epileptics are not subhuman, simply sick people..the problem are the religious infected that think they are SANE.. I did research for a living ( my own) making connections in different disciplines & decided to learn from people that were mentally impaired from all over the world, I learned from various cultures etc. thxs4input
These stupid christians fucktards have been getting on my nerves lately. I guess you could say I was waiting for someone like-minded to make a video so I could rant. I'm tired of hearing these bastards making comments that aren't representative of SCIENCE and denying evolution. I had someone laugh at me when I said we are descendants of homoerectus. YES, if you track FUCKING back far enough you will get to what we call monkeys today, cousins in my book. Christpsychosis still spreads, dammit...
Yes, and intellectual atheist do not point out the BRAIN of those Zombie Believer is malfunctioning. It is all those celebrity atheist fault, that do not call Christian for what they are schizophrenics...CRAZY
@calpurnpiso You had me laughing with the baby clips! I can see your video editing is sharper.
Your right, the intellectual atheists don't have the balls to say how crazy religious schizophrenics are. BUT, stand up comedians sometimes do, sort of but maybe not as far as telling them how deluded they are. You HAVE TO do a youtube search for 'Jim Jefferies on religion' and I promise you, you will be glad you did!
Well, dude. If you want to discuss or go into discussion with a hardened Catholic, here's a link to the page I'm on. In utter loquatious discussion with this meat-head.
Please, be my guest into convincing this poor dope. Here-
@AmericanCritiquer Technically, we can't be sure which early member of genus Homo our species is directly descended from. It could very well be a species we're not aware of. Furthermore, if you consider Homo ergaster and Homo erectus to be two different species (ergaster in Africa, erectus in Asia), then we're more likely descended from ergaster.
Also, genus and species are written as two different words: Homo erectus.
Even though the religiosity of some people may be the result of mental retardation, isn't it possible many religious people just lack the critical thinking skills required to understand the philosophical reasons why there is no god?
