Knives Monroe: "The Seed, Part One" (Dedicated to xxxThePeachxxx)

[sonnygll]

1:57 atheist/rationalist/empiricist­/skeptical enquirer

3:38 well, that's all the word means....

3:42 So there's no evidence, but you believe anyway.... That doesn't sound very rational.

You have an epistemological problem here. How do you know of the concept of god, in order to make your leap?

There is no evidence, nor any logic showing a god MUST exist. Therefore you are left with an origin of someones imagination.

I just noticed this is a year old.....perhaps your ideas have changed...

[yogurtking]

wow. that was retarded. why don't you project on us atheist a belief in elves?

[sam51092]

Let's see how this works. Take the proposition that I am Batman. Concluding that I am not Batman would be way too easy, because there's no reason at all to think that I am Batman. Life is more complex than that! Therefore, I am Batman.

Excuse me I've got crime to fight.

[ristinraccoon]

Greetings. You talk of life being a test and needing a leap of faith to see beyond the matter and the physical. But that is only part of the true test. The true test is to reject the trap, offered in books like the bible and the qur'an, where people are offered a personal prize (or threatened with a personal punishment) if they accept the evil god portrayed in the book. The test is to reject the unforgivable immoral god, even at risk to oneself, not to capitulate and aid evil.

[atheistnarutofan]

3:30-3:47 that doesn't mean that we aren't atheists, only that others chose to NOT be atheist. atheism IS easy. all you got to do is say "i don't believe it". easy=/= wrong. complex can have a very simple answer. a 50 car pile up could be cause by someone simply falling asleep. now, i bet looking at that mass of cars looks complex but that doesn't mean the cause was simple. just because that cause is simple doesn't mean it needs to be caused by something else, much less something magic.

[dechha1981]

Tell me, do you believe that everyone around you except yourself is actually a machanical robot being operated by tiny gnomes in the head bupping on levers and pedals?

If you do NOT believe that or it sounds like the bullshit, then you're an arobotmechawithagnomeinthehead­ist. if you have no idea, then you're a GnomePolitedRobot agnostic.

If you don't believe it just because it's stupid and I've provided absolutely no evidence for the claim I just made up, then you contradict yourself.

[blessednhm]

Wow! I think I'm exactly where you were in this at this point in my life. I'm one of the "no name for it", "can't seem to fit it in the box" theist.lol I think your the first person I've come across on youtube that comes even a little close to my perception.

[lc237]

Atheists can appreciate the beauty of life, of nature and the cosmos. It is too easy to say, “I believe there is a god because flowers are pretty and the sun is warm.” God doesn’t exist because you wish it.

Think critically and ask yourself, “What if there is no god?” You will be surprised how many questions will be answered if you can be honest with yourself.

“Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidence.” Christopher Hitchens.

[Astrobrant2]

Two statements:

1) There is no *evidence* for the existence of God.

2) There are people with no *belief* in God.

Belief is one thing. Evidence is something else. In fact, the only thing they have in common is that they are both nouns.

The absence of evidence is NOT a definition of atheism.

Sheesh!

[KnivesMonroe]

@Astrobrant2 Point taken. This video is a year old. I've learned much since then. Thank you.

[Astrobrant2]

@KnivesMonroe Ahh, yes. The Peach is re-uploading her old videos. Forgot about that.

[totalyawsomedude]

i dont understand the ignorance of some people. why do people think that atheists are hateful and shit and that atheist dont care about anyone. i think that atheists actually admire the traits of human nature such as emotion and love more than the "christian" does. people think that just because they're born into a religion, that that religion is the only way to live. WHY ARE THERE SO MANY DIFFERENT RELIGIONS? there is no right religion. most people are too dumb to realize that. oh society...

[OpqHMg]

@totalyawsomedude

tell me about it. its so frustrating!

[ReverendAtomSmasher]

Hmmmmm.

[alexisa1213]

...........i can live with that

[TheAmazingImbecile]

Could not the word "me" encapsulate you?

[brododipollo]

we have finally evidence that there isn't any god out there... if there was one you wouldn't be allowed to go around with that hair cut dude.

[versanil]

He can't believe there are women that are intelligent? Now that he has found out he is glad? What a moron.

[Nothiean]

Knives can't believe there are intellgent women out there.

[OurTVproductions]

xxxThePeachxxx is a hypocrite... if you begin to win an intellectual debate with her she'll block you.

I have no respect for that nonsense.

-OurTV

[wanafly12]

your on the fence looking both ways. that confusing. stop looking both ways, fall off the fence and hope you land on the A side

[BlankPageNumberXIII]

OH yea did you ever hear this.

People sometimes call Christianity ,"Fire ensurance"

[BlankPageNumberXIII]

everyone can =)

[BlankPageNumberXIII]

Athiest can also admire the beuty of the universe.

[thisguysajerk]

lol

[Boxcutter7]

I should have watched the whole video before I posted my last comment since you don't believe in hell. I can respect you since you don't believe in heaven or hell and you believe that there is life on other planets.

[Boxcutter7]

Dude guess what, the bible is a farce and there is no hell, so you don't have to worry about going there!

[DeathstarGalactica]

Go Knives Monroe! Don't be afraid to speak your mind.

[StabbedInTheKunt616]

Kiss ass!

[redFISTofEUROPE]

i disagree with you on a lot of points,

but you still earnd my respect.

you are honest enough to say that your faith isn't supported by any evidence(unlike a lot of other believers).

i still think it is kind of stupid to believe in something without any evidence. but who am i to judge you?

[dawn0293]

I also find it quite disturbing that you think a God would give people senses as instruments in order to try and best determine what is fact and what is fiction but create the actual reality as something that is in direct opposition of those senses. What kind of sadistic prankster would do such a vile thing?

[dawn0293]

Of course we judge people, it's in our nature to categorize everything. Therefore, we need to size up everything that comes across our path and label it in order to know what to file it under in our brains.

[TLSlayer]

you want to know why im an atheist?

-13 years ago,hard to explain...i basically thought of xmas and then considered politics and the economy (our current bullshit economy)

-as of 5 months ago,the other reason and the lack of credibility of my fellow man along with the lack of references presented to us of god in our world.

[VyckRo]

You are right in many things

ouu look my movie

-->/watch?v=qgWtuwwrXGs

I think you will like it

[VyckRo]

You are right, atheist judge many people!

[HumanStrategy]

People judge people. It's what people do to live their lives.

This isn't an argument. It's barely even an observation.

[TLSlayer]

we only judge people who alienate others' individuality over beliefs/opinions.

[MitchofSmeg]

/facepalm

Everyone judges everyone, its just strange how atheists are less violent take up less space in prison and has the majority of the scientific community.

[VyckRo]

Because many they discover God in jail!

2The story of atheist scientists is a myth

[MitchofSmeg]

its not, you can see it in statistics especially in europe.

[allymetoo]

What was it you wanted to say?

[no1saphead]

Same ol Blah Blah !

[PluralOfEverything]

Peach was being very kind in her response to you.  I find myself wanting to make a video response to this, but I'll wait until I'm in a better mood. Don't worry, you didn't put me in it. I just don't think it's a good idea to deal with people when you're in a bad mood if you can possibly avoid it.

[Frieza1999]

Are you there GOD?Its me,Jesus.

[kraftjesse]

The idea of other beings seeing our star as we see it now billions of years later long after our deaths was great.
