  • god is obvious bullshit

  • americans have it easy. I'm from Mali (80% muslims). If i didn't keep quiet about being an atheist when i lived there, I probably would've been disowned, beaten in the street, and have people throw things at me everytime they saw me walk by for 2 or 3 years. Strangely enough, if i said i was a christian, it'd be all right, but the idea of someone not believing in god just doesn't seem to please them very much.

  • @MckyMseNTarotCrds Good point!

  • @oscarone1982 Thank you.

  • Thank you; I needed this.

  • thanks for making me feel like I'm not alone :)

  • The premise of this video is nonsense. It's the same as the other side, the fundamentalists. You both want to see yourselves as a persecuted minority, brave soldiers in some imaginary battle. Most people don't care what you believe. Where do you work that your coworkers sit around talking about their faith? Are they pushing it down your throat somehow? Stop pretending anyone cares, drama queens. This is just your little cause, your way to be different. Plus, you're both bald.

  • @MckyMseNTarotCrds I don't understand why you think atheists are the same as fundamentalists. Atheism is the lack of theism, and most people in the world ARE theists, so atheists ARE the minority. Just because you can't see the affects of theism (or even religions) DIRECTLY, doesn't mean that the affects don't exists. It's subtle (some of the time) but it IS there... Your analogy sucks. You just don't think about the belief in god/gods critically, so you chose to be ignorant about the subject.

  • @Periph1989 You have no idea what I have considered critically. I explained quite clearly how the more rabid atheists and believers are alike. Perhaps you should pray to the god of reading comprehension. Oh, and if he answers you, ask him about the difference between effect and affect.

  • @MckyMseNTarotCrds Okay... i apologize for saying you "don't think about the belief in god/gods critically"... what i MEANT to say is that you don't think about whether or not there are negative effects of not believing in god/gods... Believers and atheists are NOT alike. One side is asserting something, the other side is being told (by people like you) that they should be thought of differently for even questioning it... we're just suppose to take it? (continued)

  • @Periph1989 (continued) just because you can't see the problems of religion or theism, doesn't mean they don't exist... also, sorry for the typo. I didn't know you'd be so anal about it.

  • @Periph1989 You're right. That was anal of me about the typo. Sorry. Look, I just think we're getting away from my point. Of course there are horrendous things done in the name of theism. Only an idiot would think otherwise. But I just don't see atheists as being this persecuted group, especially not in urban areas like where I live. Maybe in more rural settings, idk. But both fundamentalists and atheists think the average guy on the street cares about them a lot more than is true.

  • I worked in an office where the women would bring their bibles to work and leave them open on their desks all day. It made me wonder what they were trying to prove.

  • @crystalheart9 Um...maybe they were trying to 'prove' that they live in a free country and can have any goddamn book they want on their desks, as long as they are not forcing you to listen to it. Or maybe they were trying to 'prove' that you should stop worrying about what other people do or don't believe and concentrate on your job. Hmm?

  • I have the opinion that if people really believed that crap they would be living that life and going to church yet they don't ,why?

  • We agnostics *might* be alone, but we're not sure. ;-)

  • questions 1 Have you ever taken a Bible to read? whisch part wasnt weird for you? 2 . what isnt you don t understand in the bible? 3. im the last one who convinced atheist pll , , but a pitty maby one day you opend you eyes and and see the message of god send to you ..only you you cant changed . good luck . but praise the lord . he see all.

  • you are not alone. you are surrounded by devil worshiping queer atheist lol. they'll always be the atheist crazies on youtube. You all have a home hehehe

  • Comment removed

  • @youngfred116 You're not alone.

    There are millions of brain dead irrational theists who worship a god & fear a devil & neither has been proven nor refuted to exist.

    Your imagination is out of control.

    GET REAL !

  • @tranquility4all wow, you're right. Neither has been proven or can be disproven so don't waste your life away trying to tell people what's real and what's not. Get real, you or no one else is gonna change any grown persons opinion. These videos are hype and bias fictious events used to rally the masses of the blind. The matrix is all around you neo.

  • @youngfred116 It appears You're spending time on You Tube convincing people that atheists are queer & unproven deities exist.

    I can do whatever the hell i want & I don't need a Homophobe who believes in a god & a devil to advise me what i should or should not do !

  • @tranquility4all Yes my atheist friend. Most atheist are queer and i'm here to expose that fact. Just as the fat white man in the videos has his mission i have mind. You can suck cock as much as you want sir. Make sure you swallow satan semen.

  • @youngfred116 You're a Brain Dead Willfully Ignorant Homophobe who makes ASSumptions & has No evidence to support them.

    You're a result of what happens when siblings procreate.

    Keep Your head up your Ass & search for Your retarded brain.

    Your abundance of Ignorance complements Your excess of Stupidity.

    Don't bother replying because I won't waste any more time with a pathetic piece of shit like You !

    4Q ASS HOLE !

  • @youngfred116 my my my, what foul language. Does god not condemn that kind of language? But, i guess he has told you you can sin in his name right?

  • Comment removed

  • @youngfred116 I am guessing your mother did not teach you manners and to keep it in your pant. But seriously, you should learn some respect troll, maybe then it will help people respect your opinion. But, i highly believe you are not like this in person, more than likely away from your computer you are a timid little cowards that is afraid to face people and tell your opinion. Some people watch this to learn and have intelligent discussions, and you do not help at all.

  • @DocStrange0123 eat ass queer. you lose satan

  • im 15 and since 14 i deconverted to common sense lol

  • Where have all the Sky Fairies gone.

    Long time passing,

    And in the end man examine God and said "Time to die".

  • hahaha invisible friend, i love matt

  • @j5sully2012 gas in the kitch is also your invisble friend especially when you need cooking you food. god and gas both invisble but both exist . but when you want not opend you eyes it your choice but im praise the lord god see all .inquities / unjustify.

  • @MultiSolucion Gas did not create the world and make everything happen. And i know gas is real because i can light it on fire. i really dont see what your point is. A scientist can prove there is an element like gas or oxygen. Proof of god, not there.

  • I always pray to God. But lately I have been praying to God to maintain my belief in God, despite the festering presence and reprehensible presence of atheists all around me.

  • @NYerintransit

    What ever happened to love thy neighbour? Or is the festering presence of a different opinion enough for you to forsake the values of your own religion?

  • First realize your a sinner...Believe in your heart God raised Jesus Christ from the dead, confess him as Lord, ask him to forgive your sins (repent of them), wash you in his blood, and make you his child. Read and obey the Gospel, it has the power to save your soul.

  • as a open atheist, i recently attended a funeral for a friend at a church. some christians there were suprised I was there. I told them We were there to celebrate our friends life . his widow was glad to see me. religous beliefs were not an issue.....

  • thats pretty fucking rediculous... "oh why are you here?" did they really have that kind of a shitty attitude?

  • I live in the country full of rednecks and heavy society of Christians. In order for me to survive I kind of need to hide the fact that I am an atheist.

  • Mmmm and he's kinky <3

  • Everyone is an Atheist because no one believes in every God possible. I am just an Atheist in respect to every possible God not just all of them except my preferred imaginary friend.

  • im 14, and god is complete bullshit.

  • Bravo my son, you have escaped the brainwashing of the Christians.

    You must continue to avoid them, at all costs, or you will lose your identity.

    But celebrate Christmas - presents are fun! *thumbs up*

  • @R0o0g3r

    Hold on to that thought bro and don't ever let any disillusioned theist tell you otherwise.

    If ever in doubt, consider empirical facts and use reason. Science has the answers and if it doesn't there's no reason at all to think that religion does.

    ''To surrender to ignorance and call it god has always been premature, and it remains premature today''

  • ur musikal tast SUX

    at least you are an atheist

  • @ilhadosmacacos

    how does music and religion go hand in hand?

  • With the mistic power of Banana land and some zebracopters

  • @R0o0g3r I disagree, it isn't god that is bullshit, only religion. The idea of god has neither been proved or disproved but as far as religion goes, you only have to read a few chapters in the bible to realise that man made religion is full of shit.

  • @R0o0g3r Exactly the same here, good for you.

  • @R0o0g3r I know GOD is REAL because..... I KNOW HE IS REAL, take the non-belivers :-) I win because I know....

  • @IDoNotGiveACrap

    Idonotgiveacrap

  • @R0o0g3r If you were 15 god would be better? Who cares about your age?

  • @BensonSra

    cool story, bro.

  • I'm from Montreal and there's so many atheists here going to church is silly. even religious people don't go to church. trust me, atheists, you are not alone.

  • @Tamizushi

    Yeah, Quebec in it's whole contains very few theists and those that are here are mostly baby boomers or older generations.

    We're a secular society, but still, I get the impression sometimes that we're too lenient with theists...of course, religion isn't threatening to invade our schools and government as is the case with the states. So I guess we're doing what it takes to keep them happy so we don't have to worry about them invading our institutions.

  • Yes it is, there are organisations out there for that sole purpose, that gets funded by the poor delusional saps that go to church.

  • @Tamizushi I'm also from Montreal, and I'm also an atheist. (Richard Dawkins changed the way I think about life)

  • Atheists FTW!!

  • Do you have to be a liberal to be atheist?

  • Atheism, outside of the disbeleif in the god proposition, affects nothing and has no requisits. There are smart Atheists, dumb Atheists, Atheists who are right about not beleiving gods, and Atheists who are wrong about not beleiving in gods.

  • no, i am an atheist and i am not liberal at all

  • i dont believe in god, and im damn proud!

  • I've been exposed to so much latent misogyny lately... I was beginning to think that nobody thought of "woman's rights" anymore except as a nuisance who's time has passed. To hear a man actually label himself as a feminist makes me so happy! I actually said "yay"... out loud. :-)

  • is it just me, or does this video sound very similar to a religious recruitment message?

  • the concept is similar, but the ideas behind the two recruitment are IMMENSELY different

  • well, i've certainly heard about the "search for truth" before. i'd say that the ideas are the same, only the opinions are different. neither the concept of a god or the concept of no god have been proven yet, so neither can be declared as truth, yet believers of either idea announce that they believe the 'truth'. it all seems a bit pointless to me.

  • "so neither can be declared as truth, yet believers of either idea announce that they believe the 'truth"

    I can give you SO many arguments against an all-good god depicted in the big three religions

    I can ask theists SO many questions with which THEY will struggle, to which they will contrive some sort of answer that any intelligent person will see as just that "contrived", made up answer

  • therefore, the room for the existence of a good and kind god becomes smaller with each piece of knowledge that we obtain. Atheists dont have that problem

    I dont understand how you this whole thing as being pointless, its the future of our planet we are talking about here. The two big things that got us into this mess are IGNORANCE and NOT GIVING A FUCK.

    I ASSURE you that THIS is important, if not to you in your life, but to the next generations

  • how would the future of our planet be affected differently if there is a god compared to if there isn't a god? you are also saying that religious people aren't intelligent. i'm sure you could ask atheists many questions that they would struggle to answer. i'm not being ignorant, i'm open to all options, i just want to be convinced before i make my decision. can you explain to me exactly how this argument is important to the future of our planet?

  • do I REALLY have to lay it out for you?

    if Al Aquida has nuclear weapons then they don't care if they get obliterated by the US IF they manage to detonate their own nukes on the US territory

    its about who is running the planet. and for now, its the religious nutballs. A lot of them wait for the Armageddon, and they happen to own nuclear weapons. A humanist, secular future is NOT going to involve itself in such BS

  • The religious nuts are prejudiced against gays, they are sexists, a lot of them (and I know one) love Jesus and at the same time hate Black people. The Muslims abuse their wives, others mutilate their children (circumcision), the Africans keep having kids most of whom will die and THEIR religion states that their children don't really die, but come back as the newborns (which is fucked up if you think about it)

    The secular humanists value life a LOT more than the religious nuts

  • George fucking W. Bush said that GOD told him to attack Iraq! I mean you are 2 years older than me, you kinda have to be able to figure this out on your own

  • for a start off, you are talking about the human species, not the world. the world will exist long after humans, no matter what, whether it was created by a god or not. secondly, it is not religion that has screwed the species over, it is people who use it as a weapon. everybody follows trends at some stage in their lives. sometimes political leaders exploit this for the wrong reasons. religion and politics should not intermingle. that inevitably leads to extremism.

  • "it is not religion that has screwed the species over, it is people who use it as a weapon. "

    nice way of weaseling yourself out of the corner

    IF IT WASN'T FOR islam, and their determination to die, then we wouldn't have 9/11 ! Is there ANY way that you can go around that one?

    "he world will exist long after humans, no matter what, whether it was created by a god or not"

    so why not get rid of it? why not acknowledge that religion does MORE harm than good? its not that complicated really

  • oh jeez, you still think 9/11 was caused by islamic terrorists? are you american? as i said, religion has done no harm, it is the idiots that use it as a weapon or a reason to violently differentiate themselves from others that has done the harm. declaring that you are different to somebody else causes the problem. identity creates friction. as soon as you give yourself an identity, somebody will hate you. there are more deaths from football (soccer)-related riots than "religious terrorism".

  • I know it was done by islamis terrorists. If Bush administration supposedly managed to pull off 9/11 BUT they fucked up in Iraq and couldn't put one of their own nukes there to show the world that they didn't attack Iraq for nothing, then why didn't they do it?

    "religion has done no harm, it is the idiots that use it as a weapon or a reason to violently"

    THAT'S A PLAY OF WORDS, 11 year olds do that.

    I can defend my identity and I can defend secular humanism with logic.

    fuck it, you are idiot

  • right, so the person who can't see why the bush administration would start a war for profit when it has happened three times in the past is calling me an idiot? that quote is not a play on words at all. religion is a means of unifying people and living respectfully. however, many political leaders use this unification to their benefit and generate propaganda which inevitably leads to war. i wasn't saying that YOUR identity causes conflict, it is the concept of identity and segregation that does.

  • "I didn't break the vase Ma! My HANDS did it"

  • exactly: politics and the idea of being different to other people didn't lead to unnecessary war; religion did!

  • Deaths from football riots...

    Give evidence.. I cannot remember any since Hilsborough in the 80s! Religeon teaches genoocide , rape and slavery. Is it any wonder how folk that are taken in by it carry out those teachings.!

  • 30th march, 2003 - slask wroclaw vs arka gydnia (poland)

    4th february, 2007 - catania vs palermo (italy)

    16th september, 2008 - sokozaki vs nyuki system (congo)

    ...to name but a few.

  • OK in those 3 soccer matches over 5 years there were 15 deaths.

    How many folk die everyday in Africa because the pope tells em the condom is a sin..?

    A world without religeon would be better than a world without football.

  • that is NOT 'religious terrorism'. in the same way as the people killed football riots are done so because they support a different team, religious terrorism is when a member of one religion attacks somebody else because they believe differently, which very rarely occurs. anybody who believes that any current or recent wars are a religious wars is very naÏve.

  • Your definition of terrorism is yours..

    What do you call the very intellegent , suicide bombers who flew the planes into the wtc then? Either way a world withought religeon please.

  • oh no, yet another person who believes that islamic extremists were responsible for the attacks on the twin towers. there has been a lot of information hidden about that day so i won't say anything for definite, however i'm fairly certain that islamic extremists weren't involved. i'd like a world without people using religion as a weapon please. oh, and throw money and politics out with them too!

  • If the info is hidden , how come you know it?

    "i'm fairly certain that islamic extremists weren't involved"

    Provide evidence please!..

  • please read the whole of that sentence: "there has been a lot of information hidden about that day so i won't say anything for definite, however i'm fairly certain that islamic extremists weren't involved", i know that the information provided by the american government is ridiculous. read the 9-11 commission and use a little common sense, there is your evidence. the only reason that anybody believes that islamic terrorists were involved was because of the fraudulent american tv news channels.

  • Go on then... I give up.. Tell us who did it according to your hidden evidence, and why.. Conspiracy theorys eh.!! ?

    But you think we are stupid for believing man landed on the moon too..

  • how can a couple of planes hitting two towers that can withstand multiple aircraft impacts make them fall at near-freefall speed? there is a lot more evidence against islamic extremists than what the american government provided in the 9-11 commission. all i am saying is use your eyes and don't blindly accept what you are told. i saw that something didn.t add up, as so many others have done, and i read about it. the more i learned, the more ridiculous the "islamic terrorist" idea became.

  • "Blindly accept what you are told.""

    I am an atheist. A freethinker. I am automatically suspicious. But I saw those planes go in ( the 2nd one live). I saw the buildings fall too. ( or was it done in Hollywood?).. The conspiracy theories that I have been told about , I do not believe, because that is all they are. You may blindly believe the conspiracy theories, I don't.

  • i've been telling you that i don't believe one conspiracy theory, only that something was definitely hidden that day and that the "truth" provided by the american government does NOT make sense. you call yourself a freethinker yet automatically dismiss theories that have more evidence than what the news tells us? freethinkers should not dismiss anything that has a possibility of being true.

  • "dismiss theories that have more evidence than what the news tells "

    What theories and evidence.. Please enlighten us ?

  • the only two vertical steel columned buildings ever to collapse vertically at freefall speed from an aircraft impact (especially when they were designed to withstand multiple impacts) in the history of mankind both fell in the space of half an hour. it is physically impossible for two airplanes to make two buildings the stature of wtc 1 and 2 collapse. the theory that i am proposing is that the 9-11 commission is a lie.

  • Me thinks you have been taken in by the conspiricy theory brigade..

    I saw the planes fly in to them withing 30 minutes too. I visited round zero last week and I can confirm that they are not there. Please present your hypothisis, instead of saying what you think it wasn't. Thats how creationists debate.

  • creationists debate by saying "this is how it is and nothing else can change how i feel". i am saying "what we have been told is obviously false and we need to find out what really happened". you are effectively saying "this is what happened and everything else is a lie, despite the evidence". i've read many conspiracy theories and even the most ridiculous is more credible than two planes totally obliterating two of the most stable buildings ever designed by hitting them about ninety floors up.

  • "the most stable buildings ever designed"

    Bit like the titanic being unsinkable..?

    Give us your scenario then pretty please?

  • no. nothing like the titanic being unsinkable. the titanic was designed to be the biggest recreational liner ever built. the new york times hailed it as "unsinkable" simply because of it's size. it was not designed as such. the twin towers were specifically designed to withstand force 9 earthquakes and multiple aircraft impacts AS WELL AS being the tallest buildings in the world at the time. and please read what i'm saying. i'm not suggesting a scenario, only that the "facts" published are lies.

  • Rrr , I get it now.. if it something is designed to withstand whatever, it will have been tested. Thats why this is the only civil engineering project to fail.

    A 'native new yorker' pointed out to me all the damage still around ground zero, but said the church "didn't get a scratch on it".

    So I guess you are saying god did it , or the devil...

    @ least you arn't one of those nutters that is suprised there was an explosion , so it must have been dynamite..!!1

  • surely you begin to ask questions when a building that was SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED to withstand MULTIPLE aircraft collisions is reduced to rubble by a single plane? i've not read a theory mentioning dynamite. dynamite is a mining tool. thermite however is a demolition tool. it is understandable to see how the collapses could be seen as a controlled demolition, particularly building 7. i'm not a firm believer of any theory, but i can't credit plane impacts as the culprit for the collapses at all.

  • "SPECIFICALLY DESIGNED to withstand MULTIPLE aircraft collisions "

    well it didn't so someone did lie..

    My washing machine is guarenteed to work for a year, but it hasn't.

    Some people will tell you anything to sell you something..

    It is common place but not as much fun as all those rubbish conspiricy theoriers. :-))

  • well, there's a lot of difference between a washing machine - mass-produced no doubt - that you bought and an international trading centre commissioned to be built for some of the richest people in the world by some of the most experienced and qualified engineers. i'm sure 3,000 people weren't killed when your washing machine broke down for a start! i still don't understand why people ignore alternative theories for what happened even though they are backed up with plenty of evidence.

  • My wm was TESTED and mass produced, WTD was not tested. Many such large projects have failed.

    The consp. theories have been debunked one by one by many experts. But the consp. continues to sell books for it's inventors.

    Who commited suicide flying the planes into the buidings then? I feel sorry that such intelligent men were able to be deluded by religeon, but it is evident everywhere.

  • i'm sure we can see from previous projects what works and what doesn't. i could argue that the world trade centre WAS tested by other similar buildings constructed prior. planes have crashed into buildings before. conspiracy theories may have been debunked, but the 9-11 commission has also been debunked by perhaps even more people, including the engineers that built world trade centre buildings 1 and 2. how do you know people were on the planes? discredit nothing if the "truth" is a lie.

  • ""how do you know people were on the planes?""

    remote control planes?

  • it's not impossible. more than half of the "terrorists" that were supposedly on the planes are still alive anyway. is it really that ridiculous to think that a plane could be flown from outside the cockpit? it makes more sense than blowing yourself up for a religion that sees suicide as a grave sin.

  • So suicide bombers don't exist.?

    madrid and 7/7 a conspiracy.

    Why would the US need to blow up their own buildings?

  • i didn't say that they don't exist, just that it isn't impossible that they weren't involved on 9-11. some people believe that it is a way to get attention and strike fear into the public providing them with an enemy figure in order to accept the military forces being sent to war. war is the best reason for a government to raise taxes and milk more money from it's public.

  • This is all very interesting.

    War costs a lot of dosh too. No gain of £$

    This is a very elaborate plot.

    Why 4 planes, both towers, and need for towers to fall thermite etc etc..? 1 plane just missing the Whitehouse would have done that..! OR plant / discover the hidden wmd.

    Too many folk involved in this cover up that would talk and be disgusted with themselves. And those asked but didn't take part.? Thats why i don't buy it.

    Keeping folk quiet is the impossible bit.!

  • well it depends on where the money goes. i think you'll remember 1.8 trillion dollars "mysteriously disappearing" from the american budget? i'm sure splitting that between those involved will be enough to keep them quiet! wmds were not found. they were never there. that is the factor of fear implanted. it is not that elaborate. it happened with the lucitania attack in 1914, pearl harbour in 1944 and the gulf of tonkin "attack" in the 60s. 9-11 was nothing new.

  • Can u seriously c this elaborate plan being hatched. Too many unnecessary , what ifs. I would take the money up front and then talk , you?

    It was all a plan to increase air security so we are charged more for our flights and drinks in departure lounges. . Why not? (its been done b4)..

    Unfortunately this action is consistant with terrorists declared aims, and actions towords us infidels.

    Would it be be difficult for Saddam to hide wmd? Every other country manages it.

  • personally, if i was offered money (a ridiculous concept as it is) to hide information from anybody, i wouldn't accept it. in fact i'd do everything in my power to ensure that the person received the information as i believe that no information should be held from anybody against their will. again, it's consistent with what some (probably most) of us believe to be "terrorist's declared aims". you'd think that the most defended country in the world could halt attacks that they knew about.

  • the invasion of iraq had nothing to do with wmds, that was a method employed to gain acceptance from the public to launch the attack in the first place. what the american and british news doesn't mention was that saddam hussein cancelled the exportation of oil from iraq to the usa 6months prior to 9-11. it is the same as what has happened in 75% of latin american countries in the past 3decades, not to mention vietnam in the 60s.

  • Its good to be sceptical. No less of authorities.

    It is also very easy to make unsubtantiated accusations against them which sounds very clever.

    The USA is not reliant on iraq for oil.

    The sooner Fusion power is introduced the better for us all, and it will be achieved by peer reviewed science.

    The one conspiricy theory I have is why we have cheap oil why spend money finishing off the develepoment.

    The claims of the religeous I have no truck with.

  • the usa is not reliant on any one country no, but i suggest u research what occurred in venezuela after hugo chavez refused trade of oil with the usa. you can't help thinking about saddam. i agree about how needless oil is, but fusion isn't the only answer either. current geothermal technology has the ability to power the world continuously and indefinitely. there are many other solutions too.

  • So you wouldn't go to war for something you don't need. Sadam was cocking a snook at the UN.

    LEts go with geothermal then too. THen we can stop all this sanctamonious carbon footprint rubbish talk.

  • i wouldn't go to war for anything. war is pointless, like money and politics. the term "carbon footprint" is a political expression used for monitoring the usage of fossil fuel energy top justify charging more and more money for. without a carbon footprint, eventually economies will collapse, but this is a GOOD thing!

  • Then who flew the planes into the world trade center then? If not religious extremists, who would commit suicide like that?

  • well at least 7 of the 12 "hijackers" are still alive. who's to say that anybody committed suicide at all? the people who told us that terrorists flew the planes also told us that aircraft impacts destroyed two buildings specifically designed to withstand multiple aircraft impacts, which is ridiculous. i don't know who flew the planes, but i do know who it wasn't and that a lot of information about that day has been hidden from us.

  • There were 19 highjackers, not twelve, and none of them are still alive. You say "the people" who told us this was a terrorist attack, where "the people" who said the building where specifically designed to withstand multiple aircraft impacts. First of all who are these "people" could we get some names. Secondly why would a building be designed to withsatand multiple jumbo jet crashes? Does that seem like a realistic senerio? Finally, so what if they where? designs fail, it happens all the time.

  • allegedly there were 12 men on the planes, 6 on each. the names and photographs put forward were of men still alive. many were saudi. none of them knew each other or had any contact with each other. also:

    "the people" who told us it was a terrorist attack = mass media (bbc, cnn, fox)

    "the people" who said the buildings were specifically designed to withstand multiple aircraft impacts = minoru yamasaki, the architect responsible for them.

  • There were 5 highjackers on each of the planes which crashed into the world trade center, there were 19 on the four planes in total. Again, is there any evidence that any of these people are still alive? If so where is it and how do you know about it?

  • ...these include the telegraph, the bbc, the daily trust, wal fadjri, al-jazeera, the guardian and asharq al-awsat (a london-based muslim newspaper). it is quite widely known that many of hijackers identified by the fbi and cia couldn't possibly have been involved in the "attacks".

  • also, in a city with 3 major airports and the 2 tallest buildings in the world (when they were built), perhaps jumbo jet crashes would be a realistic scenario? but also being able to withstand earthquakes of force 9 richter magnitude (also the words of minoru yamasaki) should make it fairly sound. designs fail in consumer goods and other lesser projects yes, but the worlds most expensive construction project ever? not very likely.

  • Again, assuming minoru yamasaki did say these things, and he was in fact refering to jumbo jets rather then smaller aircraft, which again you provide no evidence. Then this still proves nothing other than that he was wrong. Expensive construction projects do tend to fail when you crash jumbo jets into them. Its incredibly difficult to predict engeneering senerios like this which have never taken place in real life.

  • he was referring to boeing 707s, which were the largest commercial aircraft available at the time. on the contrary, engineering scenarios are surprisingly easy to predict if they are designed with that particular scenario in mind, even if they have never taken place in real life. of all of the "hijackers" listed by the fbi, abdul aziz al-omari, saeed al-ghamdi, waleed al-shehri , ahmed al-nami, salem al-hazmi and khalid al-mihdhar have all come forward to multipple sources...

  • "Gods" hit man.

  • This was a cool video...I know this is going to sound strange but I still haven't told my dad that I'm Atheist. He's been through a lot in his life and he thanks God for being able to make it though it all so I don't think I can just tell him without him being really disappointed in me. My whole family is Christian Orthodox. Anyhow, thanks for the video.

  • Wow, expanding and organizing groups. Sounds so much like Christianity. Way to fight the same fight theism did.

  • some people are endlessly thrilled by being in opposition to the majority. i am baffled by such a mindset.

  • religion is for people who are scared to die

  • THANK GOD!I was startingto worry! accually i am 16 and have a bunch of friends who are also, atheists, and many know i am also. Cuz i am VERY vocal about "god" and all that jazz, dammit ou don't know how bad i want to just say "fuck everyne who elives in god" but i can't:/

  • No need to be angry Lucy! They dont need our anger, they just need to be allowed to think about things for themselves. Strangely, I have found that most of them havent even read their own bible and they are amazed when an Atheist schools them on their own religion. You arent alone, you are just a long way from living in a secular society.

  • Thank you so much. I'm an atheist but I go to school in West Virginia. They have really strong beliefs here, and I've only told my very close friends about my atheism. I accidentally let it slip to my mom and she set up an intervention to try to "fix" me.

    I'm scared to let people know about my lack of faith because I know that they will treat me differently.

    When I saw this episode it made me feel like maybe I'm not crazy. Thank you so much, you have no idea how good this was to hear.

  • That's great Insert, but just a minor point. I prefer to think of it as a rejection of faith rather than a lack of faith. I don't feel we atheists should say we 'lack' something that is really a vice. It has an apologetic ring to it, and I personally am not sorry I lack, say cancer, or in this case, what I'd consider a psychological retrovirus. (But thats me!)

    How does your family view your reaction to faith?

  • While for me it certainly is a rejection of faith as well, I vote that instead of making it an either-or thing we'll add it to the list of English words that have more than one definition.

  • They think I'm going through a stage but one day I'll "come around," so we don't really talk about it. One day I do plan to talk to my mom about it because I don't want to have to pretend around them, but I'm kind of putting it off because I'm scared of her reaction.

    My sister knows though, and she accepts me and my opinions and we talk about it sometimes.

    Did you come out to your family?

  • Well that's cool you have a family member that you can talk to.

    Um, regarding my situation, the whole coming out idea and the parallel with revealing someone's homosexuality to their family is so alien to me. I was never secretive about my rejection of religion, and I always openly challenged my family. And apparently younger than I can remember too, as my mum recently told me when I was a kid, this holy man visited my dad, and I basically asked my dad, "Why won't God even fix this guy's leg?".

  • I remember being an annoying little bastard to my teachers at my catholic school especially regarding biblical things - "What did the lions eat when on the Ark? What did they eat when they were back on land? Where did all the water go? What about ducks? Why werent evil fish punished too? And why do we have free will, yet are eternally punished if we dont choose option A? If original sin is a metaphor, then Jesus died for nothing? Why bother with baptism? The child cant choose!"

    And so on....

  • Absolutely, and the frustration is that these are elements of inquiry that are casually but pompously dismissed during childhood, as simply the feeble grasping of an adolescent's intellect. Yet kids are often exposing key flaws with theistic narratives that cut to the core of critical thinking.

    The best and most obvious example is that it even occurs to a child, "Then who made God?" That's not to be snorted at - that's the unavoidable problem of infinite regression with the designer argument.

  • thank u

  • The holohoax never happened. Jews control your mind. Zionists will take over the world. Jews think all non-Jews are animals. These are truths no one, not even the Atheist experience, talk about.

  • 'Jews think all non-Jews are animals'

    well they are correct. all humans are animals!

  • What they mean is that Jews are humans and all non Jews are not human. All non Jews should be gratefull that they can be the slaves of Jews like cows are to slaves us. And the Black people can be the slaves of non Jews. Blacks are so subhuman that even the Jews don't want them as slaves.

  • Then jews have a belief in common with most religions; the belief in ones own divine superiority. when all religious nonsense is shed we can move forward into an age of reason where dark age barbarocity like racism, conspiricy theories and god have no place.

  • Most religions support Zionism. Most countries support Zionism. Most politicians, educated people, professors, historians, artists... support Zionism. Even allot of atheists like Richard Dawkins are Zionists themselves. Is the age of reason or the age of Zionism coming?

  • and without religion there would be no zionists. people wouldnt need to support the establishment of a jewish nation if it werent for judaism itself and the religions that persecute it.

    therefore we should educate everyone into exactly why religion needs to be wiped from the human conciousness

  • The Zionist Jews do not see themselves as religious Jews but as a Jewish race. That is why they made the country Israel. Are Jews a race or a religion? It depends on the Jew how he will answer that. Zionism is an atheistic government that created and leads theistic radicals.

  • jewishness is a religion but is often used to describe a race of people. the correct term is semitic which includes other people as well.

    and this conversation has got way too conspiritorial for me

  • That is right Semites is the term for the race but most Jews (more than 90%) come from Khazaria (todays Chechnya) and are not Semites at all. The most anti-semitic people are the Jews and Zionists since they kill on a daily basis Semite people in Palestine.

  • Correct. And this is probably the only place you will see this kind of statement. It is feverishly hidden to keep the majority in the dark.

  • LOL I worked with a idiot that use to try to make me belive in god. LOL his name was Joel Payne.

  • why are the sincere so vulnerable? damn it this world's annoying

  • Culture is awfull.

  • Culture is awful? How the fuck is the customs of a society, (Their language, beliefs, laws, rituals, holidays etc) awful? Are you a sociopath?

  • They could be a prision.

    Look at some tribal rituals in Africa. Look at some tribal rituals in 5th Avenue.

  • Look at your fucking tribal rituals of persecution!

    You cunt.
