i know matt says hes from texas, but he says 'u know' a lot and it sounds canadian when he does. certainly not a texan accent. anyone know if he's canadian? just curious
atheism is simply not believing in a god(s). Kind of like aliens that came from other planets. They are always pretty polite, love science and technology. a little Dog eat Dog going on in their circles and they always act like everyone else on earth is so stupid for not knowing the secrets of the universe. You aliens think ur so smart...that is till we send a virus to ur mother ship and fuck u up and with Will Smith starring as our hero u have no chance.
Making something up and saying "don't believe that" is indoctrination. Saying "don't make up things and believe in them without evidence" is NOT indoctrination.
@PrinceFelipe And I have no idea, where you get your information in regards of Islam and Catholics but would I be a betting man I would say that when asked about the number of Christians you count in the Catholics but otherwise they are not Christians.
And even if you put your fingers in your ears and go 'lalalalalalalalalaa.', that does not change the fact that prophets of Islam include Samuel, Moses, Lot, David, Adam to name few. Not liking something does not make it untrue.
"Yes they stole the ark and God would have sparred the people had they returned it in the first place. Samuel has nothing to do with Islam. Islam was birthed by the Roman Catholic Church when they got into bed with Mohamed."
I do not do PM's, if you have something to say of my comments, it stays here, in the open, for all to see and value based on what is written.
Yes, god killed as he characteristically does, god and murder in the bible seem to be synonyms.
Clearly you have nothing against god killing people and using his magical powers to do it. So, why did you get all pissy when I pointed out the parts where god says he will be killing people with his magic powers?
Why do the Judeo-Christians find it so hard to accept that their god kills whimsically and is manipulative prick? Actually, I think, in the bible, only one saying that god is good was Jesus. And frankly, what Jesus says of god is highly biased, would you not agree?
I've actually experienced atheist indoctrination in my family. I am no longer religious, but I was as a child. My family kept their kids away from our house because we might pray or talk about god. This is the same as Christians who do the same thing for the same reason. No reasoning or evidence was ever given, just that "bible thumpers" are bad and are trying to snare peoples kids into their religious ways. This was never my intention, I just wanted my cousins to play with.
@PrinceFelipe Being atheist doesnt mean you believe cosmology or evolution, its just a lack of faith in god, and your perception of the big bang and evolution are extremely skewed and not at all correct
@PrinceFelipe Magic man snaps fingers and all pops out of nothing into existence. He tears out a rib from a man which turns into a woman. He sends swarm of angels to kill firstborns in Egypt. Bangs a teen without even giving flowers first, says his blood and meat is wine and crackers. Has rough masochistic session before returning to clouds. And you say say that is not a plot for bad fantasy novel but truth?
@69soulstone Egyptians could have put lamb's blood over their doors and they refused. So the Egyptians murdered their own children. God did not have sex with Marry you fool. Jesus had to suffer to cover sin, you love sin because you love to make yourself feel good and you don't care about anyone else. You being evil enough to reject Jesus would make a despressing Historical novel.
@PrinceFelipe You believe that if someone kills your children it is your fault? Yes, Egyptians could have put blood on the door, had they known of it but god specifically told Moses that tell it only to my gang. As always, an omnipotent god just could not figure a way to swoop israelites from the egypt without satisfying his desire for death first.
Yet Mary got pregnant and after the fact she was informed that; Hey babe, banged ya, love god.
PS: It is impossible to reject what does not exist.
@69soulstone Egypt had several plages before the first born died. So they did not listen to God and they got what they deserved for not protecting their own children. Plus the Hebrews were slaves and the Egyptians saw them putting the lambs blood over their doors. God wanted to show Pharaoh and his friends up cause Pharaoh was evil like you. Go ahead and imagine God fucking Marry it might get you off. PS: Atheist don't want to follow rules so you cry out "there is no God".
@PrinceFelipe And why did they not listen? Because of god;
Exodus 4:21 The LORD said to Moses, “When you return to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders I have given you the power to do. But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go.
So Egyptians had no chance to start with as the game was rigged against them, therefore God just wanted to kill their firstborns.
And even if hebrews had been slaves, so what? They had slaves too, pot>kettle>black.
@69soulstone Pharaoh's heart was hardend because when Moses spoke for God to Pharaoh. He got mad and hardend his own heart. Pharaoh did not want to submit to God, because Pharaoh thought he himself was a god. God's sovereignty made Pharaoh angry because no one told Pharaoh what to do.
Slaves can put lamb's blood on their doors out in the broad daylight in secret? They were slaves meaning the Egyptians watched over them and saw them putting Lamb's blood over their doors.
@PrinceFelipe Stop lying, bible is clear in what it says,
Exodus 4:21 The LORD said to Moses... But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go.
It does not say pharaoh hardened his heart but god will harden his heart so that the what ever wonders Moses would perform in front of him could not affect him. There is no wiggle room in what is written in the bible.
Do you think slaves would be allowed to live next to the main house and brush elbows with non-slaves? Seriously?
@69soulstone Did you ever see the movie the Fugitve with Harrison Ford? Where his wife calls 911 and says "John He is trying to kill me". The operator and the police assume its her saying her husband is trying to kill her. When she actualy crying out to her Husband for help from a intruder. You or I do not read Hebrew you are reading a translation you fool. Do you think slaves get full privacy? God's orders to pharaoh through Moses hardend his heart cause he got enraged like you do.
@PrinceFelipe Never seen it and it has no relevancy to the question of who hardened pharaoh's heart. And which slave owner cares what slaves do to their doors as long as they are docile? None.
You may say that it is a translational error but then you claim that all bibles are in wrong, that no one got it translated right, which would then make all bibles suspect and clearly not to be the word of god if it can get lost in translation. And what makes you think I could read Aramaic too?
@69soulstone When you don't understand something about the bible it is always best to see if you can find someone who can give you a proper translation. Just like though shall not kill refers to "murder". The problem people have with the bible is they do not undertsand the character of God, so they just jump to conclusions and don't bother to try to understand what God really means. I used the fugative movie as an example of people taking words the wrong way.
@PrinceFelipe KJV states gods desire to kill firstborns very clearly, it was the goal to start with even.
21 ... But I will harden his heart, so that he will not let the people go. 22 Then you shall say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus says the LORD: “Israel is My son, My firstborn. 23 So I say to you, let My son go that he may serve Me. But if you refuse to let him go, indeed I will kill your son, your firstborn.”’”
@69soulstone You ignore the part where God is punishing Pharaoh for not letting the Hebrews go. Therefore you love Pharaoh's sin. The Egyptians already had swveral plagues before the Angel of death came. How much more waring do you need Mr Heathen? Since you love Pharaoh so much you are going spend eternity in hell with him. Moses had the right to kill the man who beat slaves without cause.
@PrinceFelipe I am not the one which is ignoring the main point;,God made sure that pharaoh would not let Hebrews go by hardening his heart until he got to show all of his plagues and specifically get to kill the firstborns.
No amount of warning can help if you are unable to act upon them. Even after he was allowed to let them go, god once more hardened his heart so he would try to capture them. Lord hardened pharaohs heart about ten times in all, so he would not give in to Moses.
@PrinceFelipe It has nothing to do with belief, merely reading comprehension. All is clearly written in bible, several languages agreeing on translation and no amount of trying to present the pharaoh as the evil one in this case is false testimony.
If you can honestly say that god did not harden pharaohs heart after reading the bible then the problem of changing ones mind is all yours.
The issue of free will in that scenario, I am not hash it as it is truly a classic example against it.
@PrinceFelipe Do I understand you right, that you wanted me to accept an interpretation of bible which is clearly opposite of what is written in the bible? If so, no, of course you cannot change my mind. Why would I accept a lie when I can read the text in multiple languages and the end result is always the same? The text is there for everyone to read but trying to alter the meaning because you dislike the implication is very dishonest way to talk about religion, faith or god.
@PrinceFelipe I stated what is explicitly written in bible but you try to alter the meaning. God hardened pharaohs heart and stated his intentions to do so before Moses returned to Egypt. That is written in the bible.
It is not my fault that bible is actually stating things clearly and what it states paints god in bad light. If you do not accept it as it is, then you do not believe in it. It seems Bible is merely something you use as a prop to fit in amongst others who think alike. Matthew 7:1
@69soulstone This was said in the book of Samuel because God was giving it to clarifying what he was saying to Moses. You pick and choose you damb theathens and do not take the bible as a whole. You cut out scriptures for your satanic agenda because you love to sin and you make excuses for man to do evil. You are wicked and are going to Hell. Matthew 7:1? You left out John 7:24 Judge not according to the appearance, but judge righteous judgment. Quit leaving out scriptures!!!!
@PrinceFelipe I did not cut out anything nor leave out anything, that claim is the credo of religious when something they do not want to consider is presented about their holy book. Fatwa envy perhaps?
I have taken the bible as whole. I have read it several times, in four languages. I am not the one spinning the stories to make it all good but I actually take the text as it is written. I read it as if it is the word of god, not the words of some apologetic who has issues with the evils of god.
@PrinceFelipe Seriously? But if you want to bring Samuel into the equation then you will be even more irate as there is even more examples of how the biblical god acts.
But that particular pick (and choose) out of the whole chapter is taken from middle of where philistines ponder how to to appease the god when they return the ark, it is their view and their fears, it is what they thought. After getting it back, god kills 50,070 for looking at the ark.
@PrinceFelipe And you left out Joshua 11:20 but I was not going to mention but you want to jump around the bible then fine lets play the hopscotch bible;
Joshua 11:20 - For it was of the LORD to harden their hearts, that they should come against Israel in battle, that he might destroy them utterly, and that they might have no favour, but that he might destroy them, as the LORD commanded Moses.
@69soulstone God killed off the assholes . And they got what they deserved. Just like when you go to hell you will get what you deserve. I am glad God gave Joshua the power to defeat your heathen friends. I am glad.
@PrinceFelipe And there we have it. The christian love which is overflowing. It never seem to matter to some modern Christians what Christ said, it is always what the god of the old testament does that gets your juices flowing.
@69soulstone Jesus never said we have to love evil. Jesus actualy said he came to bring a sword against evil. Jesus did not destroy the law of Moses. Jesus did not say I have to love the evil that you do either.
Wherefore then do ye harden your hearts, as the Egyptians and Pharaoh hardened their hearts? when he had wrought wonderfully among them, did they not let the people go, and they departed?
@69soulstone "And which slave owner cares what slaves do to their doors as long as they are docile? None" Moses killed and Eygptian for beating a Hebrew slave and had to flee Egypt because one Pharoah wanted to kill him for this. The Pharaoh's were fully aware what was happing in their country. If a Pharoah could get wind of Moses killing this man so easily I am pretty sure they could find out tens of thousands of slaves were putting Lamb's blood over their doors.
@PrinceFelipe So? Slaves paint the door red with blood and all free Egyptians thing that is quaint and should have followed them? That is inane point.
Moses was not some slave running around but the (adopted) son of the pharaohs daughter. He was not some run of the mill yokel but part of the royal family, If someone would see, say prince of wales shooting some bloke on the Piccadilly, would that not spread like wildfire? Moses was just a murderer, even tried to hide the body to avoid the law.
I hate those idiots who say it takes just as much faith to NOT believe since you cannot prove that god does not exist. Hogwash the burdon of proof is on those making the claim.

i love religion! you dont even need to believe in it, just say ur little speech, if some1 asks you say ur christian, go to church at christmass and ur all good. I even get free yearly redemption resets on new years eves for no reason.
@maitriparamita I agree with you. However it's very sad that in most of the "Government run" schools they teach the kids the very opposite. They don't teach critical thinking in schools any more.
What would be awsome is to raise the next generation of kids Atheist, Teach them about all religion and see which religion most kids will choose as adults.
Matt Dillahunty digs music, no doubt about it he boogies down to almost every song.
I also wanna add I was raised by atheists and there's no brain washing or indoctrination. My dad said 'no I don't believe in God, but think and believe what you want', and he encouraged me to learn and think. There is nothing to brainwash the kid with. My Christian friends evangelized me, dragged me to church, but I saw them as completely indoctrinated. The pretended to know something they had no clue about.
@maitriparamita exactly thats what i would do just teach them the facts about the world and if they want to say god did it i dont give a shit hey it might make them feel good maybe to beleive in a "heaven" and that alone without the dogma would make me exstremely happy for them
When strippers rob me at gun point...then I'll care about the morality. Who are sluts hurting? Will the world go into chaos if there are whores? Good grief, people have lame concerns.
Here America is in a struggling economy and people are straining their brains on absolutist anti-concepts like good versus bad.
Who is the most moral...why do people waste their time on self righteousness?
@EmuAddict Thank you. Because i stop it, because you can't really get this. This why you reply me. The true is too hard for you. You prefer lies from governments ant tribal - friennds - constructructions. Not your own true, Isn't it?
So, by, by. When you don't apreciate god, god does not apreciate you.
Moksha is earned, not given, and that is the essential difference between Moksha & Heaven. One can beg for Gods mercy, grovel like a dog, and then be allowed to taste the pleasures of a flesh-happy heaven, but one cant beg for Moksha, because Enlightenment is acquired thru knowledge. Even if the Teacher takes pity on a student who turned in a bad paper, and passes him, it doesnt mean the student had suddenly acquired the knowledge. Reach for the Higher goal, reach for Moksha

I listed the source, give it a read sometime, BTW a 2000 British survey found 15% of the general population non-religious, and 32% of the prison population to be non-religious. If you checked sources that were not atheist propaganda sites, you could see the truth...

For a complete list of sources, see Vox Days- "The Irrational Atheist"
Atheist regimes killed over 150 million people in the last 100 years. Atheists are 4 times more likely to commit crimes and be incarcerated. Theist scientists tend to have higher IQ's than atheists. Atheists are more likely to suffer from mental illness, depression and suicide. Most Doctors, Presidents,Astronauts are believers. America, a primarily Christian nation has 28% more scientific output than atheistic France
my whole family beleive in god i dont because i went to school and my brain grew too big and sqeezed out the religious bullshit not really i was never taht stupid as a 4 year old
While my mother was not religious but she taught me plenty of religious ideas including that god was in everything. She read us the story of Jesus at Christmas (believing that we should know where the holiday came from). She also told me that aliens put life on earth, and more.
I grew up to be an atheist and I do have to say that my mother had little to do with it.
@lilmarome Actually, The U.S. Supreme Court cited Secular Humanism as a religion in the 1961 case of Torcaso v. Watkins (367 U.S. 488). You might want to look a little deeper into that case. Like it or not, the Supreme Court ruled not believing in God ( secular humanism) as a religion.
@RisingOmega Secular Humanism is not atheism:)) Learn your definitions before making a giant fool out of yourself. There are many deists and theists and other people who believe in different supernatural things that are secular humanists so atheism is not equal to Secular Humanism.
@lilmarome You sir are a fucking moron, it goes beyond atheist, they don't believe in God or the supernatural. Same fucking category you mental midget. Do some research before you open your pie hole next time douche.
@RisingOmega lmao, even with the insults you're still wrong mate:) go the secular humanists webpage and read who are in their organisation, it's not only atheists and agnostics.
"Atheism is not a belief; it is an absence of belief"
That's right, Atheism is a faith the way zero is a number. If you count something & there are none then that's a zero count. And if you measure someone's belief in god and come up with no belief that's Atheism.
You need faith to believe in something without any evidence but you don't need ANY to NOT believe in something that not only has no evidence but is far fetched to say the least.

No god made the earth in six days, he made the billions of stars and their planets in one day. We are special sitting on the edge of a galaxy on the edge of a mass of galaxies so god took his time with us. Everything else, 99.99999999 of all matter was made in just one day. God is great. 8-P, What's the emoticon for shit this is crazy?
Good point. The Earth which is an insignificant speck of dust compared to the Universe(s) takes 6 days but the billions of galaxies and quadrillions of stars takes one? How anthropocentric!
This shit is so ridiculous that if you'd never heard it before it would sound like Scientology to you. Now THERE'S a great bullshit story!!! LOL
That is absurd. One can't possibly be good for the sake of trying to make atheism look good. Be honest. It's okay to admit that the reason you do good things is because... guess what, you've got good to you.
To authoritatively propose atheism as some arbitrary position can be counted as indoctrination: "there is no god and that's it" just doesn't cut it. But if you actually advocate the underlying principles from which atheism is derived (analyzing claims on their own merits, concluding based on evidence, following the laws of logic etc) to demonstrate why one should be an atheist, then I wouldn't classify that as indoctrination.
Catholics are chronic shoplifters. They commit their crimes during the week, go to confession on the weekend to absolve themselves of sin, then shoplift again on the weekdays. It's sort of like shampooing your hair: rinse, lather, repeat; except it's: shoplift, confess, repeat.
What I won't do is try to impose my atheism on toddlers, when they have no possible way to understand what I'm saying is true or not, and will not take them every sunday to hear someone tell them that, if they don't become atheists, they will be lesser humans.
When they are older, I will tell them what I think, and then they can decide. I am very confident reason will prevail in their lives.
"i worry that when i have my own kids they might decide to turn to religion at some point"
I'm sorry I'm replying to your comment so late, but what you say is important. I will not try to impose atheism on anyone, but I'll be darned if I won't teach my beliefs to my kids WHEN THEY ARE OLDER.
As long as what I teach them is honest and not biased, my kids will grow and understand what is correct on their own. It's just how you teach; by force or with real honesty.
i hacen't watched the video (yet) but how can we atheists teach our non-belief to our children? I'm sorry, but we don't go to church, we don't talk about some set doctrine, we dont pray with our kids or anything like that. We don't read them a book of "truth" either. Children of atheists make their own decisions and learn for themselves, without any religious influences. That is not indoctrination.
At first I didn't think it was a bad thing until it got out of hand. Well I have a buddy who is very devoted in his beliefs. He told me his son was having problems in high school. About a week later told me his son was in jail. I ask him why. Well there was some bullies at his school and they were picking on him. Then his son got a baseball and then beat them up. I then ask him if he did anything to prevent that. His replies was he pray and it was god's will that answer... Yeah.. now I feel bad.
I'm an atheist, and so is my dad (my mom being a pseudo-pagan wiccan thingie), but I'm an atheist not because I was raised atheist. Yes, I didn't go to church, but it's not as though my parents ever TOLD me there was no God. Religion and politics, like sex, should be taboo topics to talk about around young children.
Same, I grew up with my mom, and noone talked about religion around me except at the local afterschool program. It was many years later that I decided to be an Atheist, but until then I just didn't know (nor care) what I was.
I definantly think talking about religion should be minimized around children, let them figure it out themselves.
It's been statistically shown that 68.9% of youtube commentors are grammatically challenged, unable to spell and don't know where the fucking caps key is.
George Carlin For President in 2012. "He was just here a minute ago"
Even if he's dead, he can't possibly be any more fucked up than these last two clowns.(Current and prior)
Whats the difference between indoctrinating and witnessing? If we (Atheist) expressed our belief/non-belief, we are charged with indoctrinating. If they (Christians mostly, but any belief system will do) express their belief, then its suddenly called witnessing.
"I agree 14-16% is not the actual percentage in the U.S., but that doesn't include the closet atheists. "
Yea, and you gotta think that alot of people who are statistically considered as 'religious', aren't that religious at all; they just tuck the belief in the back of their minds and get on with life.
it is a statistical fact that in the U.S. , about 14%-16% of the general population are self proclaimed atheists(probably more unacclaimed), and the U.S. prison system consists, by way of several polls, an average of 2% atheists.
the intro song, "son of a preacher man" or whatever, still is "hits from the bong" to me. yes, cypress hill used the melody, and no, i am not a pot-head, but its more relevant to my generation. but i give props to the original artist for the beautiful melody.
I wouldn't say to my kid that there are no god/gods. I would say that there are no evidence at all for any gods existence. Because it is a fact that that there are no evidence what so ever, for any gods existence.
Save from what ? some dumb failure he was responsible for in the first place ? If you have to pick a religion go for Jainism, at least it has moral core beliefs.
Christian: Believe in MY GOD or else.... Atheist: else... then nothing happens... C: He'll punish you on your due time... A: Why not now? C: ... C: Because HE wants you to accept HIM! A: So I can accept him right before my death and then OK? C: YES! I mean NO! you must accept it NOW!!! A: Can you prove that you god exist in the first place??? C: .... A: Hello? I need proof... C: The proofs are in the bible! A: Don't you have a solid proof? C: Yes, The Bible! A: Just one "proof"... WOW!

I've actually experienced atheist indoctrination in my family. I am no longer religious, but I was as a child. My family kept their kids away from our house because we might pray or talk about god. This is the same as Christians who do the same thing for the same reason. No reasoning or evidence was ever given, just that "bible thumpers" are bad and are trying to snare peoples kids into their religious ways.

@PrinceFelipe And why did they not listen? Because of god;
Exodus 4:21 The LORD said to Moses, “When you return to Egypt, see that you perform before Pharaoh all the wonders I have given you the power to do. But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go.
So Egyptians had no chance to start with as the game was rigged against them, therefore God just wanted to kill their firstborns.
And even if hebrews had been slaves, so what? They had slaves too, pot>kettle>black.

@69soulstone Pharaoh's heart was hardend because when Moses spoke for God to Pharaoh. He got mad and hardend his own heart. Pharaoh did not want to submit to God, because Pharaoh thought he himself was a god. God's sovereignty made Pharaoh angry because no one told Pharaoh what to do.
Slaves can put lamb's blood on their doors out in the broad daylight in secret? They were slaves meaning the Egyptians watched over them and saw them putting Lamb's blood over their doors.

@PrinceFelipe Stop lying, bible is clear in what it says,
Exodus 4:21 The LORD said to Moses... But I will harden his heart so that he will not let the people go.
It does not say pharaoh hardened his heart but god will harden his heart so that the what ever wonders Moses would perform in front of him could not affect him. There is no wiggle room in what is written in the bible.
Do you think slaves would be allowed to live next to the main house and brush elbows with non-slaves? Seriously?

@69soulstone Did you ever see the movie the Fugitve with Harrison Ford? Where his wife calls 911 and says "John He is trying to kill me". The operator and the police assume its her saying her husband is trying to kill her. When she actualy crying out to her Husband for help from a intruder. You or I do not read Hebrew you are reading a translation you fool. Do you think slaves get full privacy? God's orders to pharaoh through Moses hardend his heart cause he got enraged like you do.
PrinceFelipe 1 year ago
@PrinceFelipe Never seen it and it has no relevancy to the question of who hardened pharaoh's heart. And which slave owner cares what slaves do to their doors as long as they are docile? None.
You may say that it is a translational error but then you claim that all bibles are in wrong, that no one got it translated right, which would then make all bibles suspect and clearly not to be the word of god if it can get lost in translation. And what makes you think I could read Aramaic too?
69soulstone 1 year ago
@69soulstone When you don't understand something about the bible it is always best to see if you can find someone who can give you a proper translation. Just like though shall not kill refers to "murder". The problem people have with the bible is they do not undertsand the character of God, so they just jump to conclusions and don't bother to try to understand what God really means. I used the fugative movie as an example of people taking words the wrong way.

@PrinceFelipe KJV states gods desire to kill firstborns very clearly, it was the goal to start with even.
21 ... But I will harden his heart, so that he will not let the people go. 22 Then you shall say to Pharaoh, ‘Thus says the LORD: “Israel is My son, My firstborn. 23 So I say to you, let My son go that he may serve Me. But if you refuse to let him go, indeed I will kill your son, your firstborn.”’”
69soulstone 1 year ago
@69soulstone You ignore the part where God is punishing Pharaoh for not letting the Hebrews go. Therefore you love Pharaoh's sin. The Egyptians already had swveral plagues before the Angel of death came. How much more waring do you need Mr Heathen? Since you love Pharaoh so much you are going spend eternity in hell with him. Moses had the right to kill the man who beat slaves without cause.
PrinceFelipe 1 year ago
@PrinceFelipe I am not the one which is ignoring the main point;,God made sure that pharaoh would not let Hebrews go by hardening his heart until he got to show all of his plagues and specifically get to kill the firstborns.
No amount of warning can help if you are unable to act upon them. Even after he was allowed to let them go, god once more hardened his heart so he would try to capture them. Lord hardened pharaohs heart about ten times in all, so he would not give in to Moses.

@69soulstone If you want to beleive that way I can't change your mind.
PrinceFelipe 1 year ago
@PrinceFelipe It has nothing to do with belief, merely reading comprehension. All is clearly written in bible, several languages agreeing on translation and no amount of trying to present the pharaoh as the evil one in this case is false testimony.
If you can honestly say that god did not harden pharaohs heart after reading the bible then the problem of changing ones mind is all yours.
The issue of free will in that scenario, I am not hash it as it is truly a classic example against it.

The text is there for everyone to read but trying to alter the meaning because you dislike the implication is very dishonest way to talk about religion, faith or god.

@PrinceFelipe I stated what is explicitly written in bible but you try to alter the meaning. God hardened pharaohs heart and stated his intentions to do so before Moses returned to Egypt. That is written in the bible.
It is not my fault that bible is actually stating things clearly and what it states paints god in bad light. If you do not accept it as it is, then you do not believe in it. It seems Bible is merely something you use as a prop to fit in amongst others who think alike. Matthew 7:1

@69soulstone This was said in the book of Samuel because God was giving it to clarifying what he was saying to Moses. You pick and choose you damb theathens and do not take the bible as a whole. You cut out scriptures for your satanic agenda because you love to sin and you make excuses for man to do evil. You are wicked and are going to Hell. Matthew 7:1?

@PrinceFelipe I did not cut out anything nor leave out anything, that claim is the credo of religious when something they do not want to consider is presented about their holy book. Fatwa envy perhaps?
I have taken the bible as whole. I have read it several times, in four languages. I am not the one spinning the stories to make it all good but I actually take the text as it is written. I read it as if it is the word of god, not the words of some apologetic who has issues with the evils of god.

@PrinceFelipe Seriously? But if you want to bring Samuel into the equation then you will be even more irate as there is even more examples of how the biblical god acts.
But that particular pick (and choose) out of the whole chapter is taken from middle of where philistines ponder how to to appease the god when they return the ark, it is their view and their fears, it is what they thought. After getting it back, god kills 50,070 for looking at the ark.
Samuel is one of the prophets of Islam.

@69soulstone "And which slave owner cares what slaves do to their doors as long as they are docile? None" Moses killed and Eygptian for beating a Hebrew slave and had to flee Egypt because one Pharoah wanted to kill him for this. The Pharaoh's were fully aware what was happing in their country. If a Pharoah could get wind of Moses killing this man so easily I am pretty sure they could find out tens of thousands of slaves were putting Lamb's blood over their doors.
PrinceFelipe 1 year ago
@PrinceFelipe So? Slaves paint the door red with blood and all free Egyptians thing that is quaint and should have followed them? That is inane point.
Moses was not some slave running around but the (adopted) son of the pharaohs daughter. He was not some run of the mill yokel but part of the royal family, If someone would see, say prince of wales shooting some bloke on the Piccadilly, would that not spread like wildfire? Moses was just a murderer, even tried to hide the body to avoid the law.

Moksha is earned, not given, and that is the essential difference between Moksha & Heaven. One can beg for Gods mercy, grovel like a dog, and then be allowed to taste the pleasures of a flesh-happy heaven, but one cant beg for Moksha, because Enlightenment is acquired thru knowledge. Even if the Teacher takes pity on a student who turned in a bad paper, and passes him, it doesnt mean the student had suddenly acquired the knowledge. Reach for the Higher goal, reach for Moksha

"Atheism is not a belief; it is an absence of belief"
That's right, Atheism is a faith the way zero is a number. If you count something & there are none then that's a zero count. And if you measure someone's belief in god and come up with no belief that's Atheism.
You need faith to believe in something without any evidence but you don't need ANY to NOT believe in something that not only has no evidence but is far fetched to say the least.

To authoritatively propose atheism as some arbitrary position can be counted as indoctrination: "there is no god and that's it" just doesn't cut it. But if you actually advocate the underlying principles from which atheism is derived (analyzing claims on their own merits, concluding based on evidence, following the laws of logic etc) to demonstrate why one should be an atheist, then I wouldn't classify that as indoctrination.

Catholics are chronic shoplifters. They commit their crimes during the week, go to confession on the weekend to absolve themselves of sin, then shoplift again on the weekdays. It's sort of like shampooing your hair: rinse, lather, repeat; except it's: shoplift, confess, repeat.
