yes yes, God did all that, he even created you with that annoying voice and those 2 big moles in your face! I am sure he created you for better things that making all these videos... you are funny! well, you made ma laugh!! and I see how you care about God as you talk so much about Him...
well, I really tried to listen, but I feel as though Satan's power is the ruler on Earth. Every bad negative thing you said I was like yep the devil strikes again, you kept saying God I kept saying isn't Satan the ruler right now, I mean it explains everything to me, why all the bad happens, until the return the devil and his powers will rule this Earth, but after the return Evil gets put down, so God can protect us rightfully, the people who understood this.
@Clint8403 I know it still comes down to if he is in control how can this be, try this one lol, When adam and eve were thrown out of the garden and lived life, and if it was sooo bad, then why the hell didnt they just pass away, I mean why have children, and keep the punishment going, I know if it were me I would not have children, I would just say well, we messed up, lets not put a generation of people through this and die without offspring. Just a thought.
Love the "Have a great and god-free day" at the end of each video. I'm stealing it from you. Reading this comment indicates you're OK with that (or maybe that I'm a manipulative fuckhead.. whichever). Seriously, though, I'll give credit.
"The universe was made for you" was the most arrogant phrase I heard in a long time, this guy has serious problems... it would be funny if it wasn't so scary that people actually believe this guy.
Still behave the same? If you would still be the same good person what is God's purpose in your life? You'd still be awesome without God. If you lose purpose upon finding out an begin to do evil shit...well you had no (2)
This made me think. I love your channel. A question came to my mind: if someone were to ask a theist..if you found out that there was no God would you (1)
second off: i agree totally. Unless you were born through a test tube, i can pretty much guarantee everybody was an accident. This is mentioning all the times people fell flat on their faces when they had children, and then those children growing up and becoming suicidal drug addicts. Oh wait. They fell away from 'God's plan' because they surely could control all the events in their lives telling them they were worthless. Bullshit.
"god planned your body exactly" or whatever. yeah, it's so clear that this drivel is catered toward bourgeois, upper middle to upper class people with few material worries and good health. fuck obama for having this douche pray at his inaugeration, really, fuck him.
"Our Universe is MASSIVE" - AAT "'Space,' it says, 'is big, REALLY Big. You just won't believe how vastly, hugely, mind-boggling big it is. Now, you may think it's a long way down the street to the chemists, but that's just PEANUTS to space' and so on" - intro to the book. From HHG2G by, of course, Douglas Adams.
Rock on, I was an accident too! *high fives* My mother didn't know u could get pregnant the first time you don't use a condemn or birth control. :P
Ack, I hate when people use questionable translations and THEN take quotes out of context. That is a pet peeve of mine.
Wow... I'm amazed he's trying to claim the "god is in charge of everything" line. I at least blamed Satan or people for bad things... even though they were created by god, but still.
sooooo god wants my kids to never be able to go on long trips due to genetics that my fam has that if we sit to long we will get blood cloths along with 5 eye things, cancer and oh 5 other genetic pre set things yay god for really wishing that my offsprings will have a life filled with trips to the doctor's office also some hit the down thing by fault it seems
I am pretty sure there is no god, but I do believe in myself and I do believe I have the strength to work miracles in the world. Though I still have this doubt that sways me over because of unexplained events. But I think some one is pretty delusional if they ignore all these murders and deaths and just say oh it's "gods" will when they surely could have done something about it. That sickens me.
why sav the children? we are overpopulating at an alarmingrate. saving those children ciontributes to making that problem worse. makes you an accomplice in the destruction of humanity. religion is the worst thing propagating overpopulation, but by trying to help these kids to reach reproductive age, you are doing the same kind of damage that religion does by opposing contraception. i usually agree with you, but not on this issue. spay and neuter them. then feed them. stop the insanity.
The most effective means of population control is to raise the standard of living, coupled with protections of women's rights. Personally I would rather promote freedom to solve problems rather than promote nazi-like tactics.
The Earth does not lack the resources to feed all it's people, instead people die of starvation due to politics. Take Korea, they grow fat in the South and people resort to cannibalization in the North.
@smithichie that is the kind of short sighted view that is dangerous. there is enough food to feed them now, but not if they keep reproducing at the current rate. zero population growth will happen, the only question is whether we achive it through education and contraception, or nature does through famine, disease, or war. who is more humane?
I'm going to write a humorous version of this type of book..Its going to go something like this..You are no mistake..You have a purpose..When you were born the doctor slapped your face(oops) then he looked at your ass and then your face and told your parents they had twins..Then he had to slap the nurse to stop her from laughing..
If there are no accidents, does that mean your god has planned on those who will be aborted? Is the act of trying to prevent abortions no different than trying to prevent the will of your god?
@smithichie Their claim is that the pregnancy was the will of god and the act of getting an abortion is going against god's will. They believe that a spiritual individual is always under the control of god and those of us who are hopeless sinners are doing self-will. "Thy will, not mine, be done" is what they say to god. On the one hand they claim that "everything happens according to god's plan." Then they admonish their sheep for acting on "self-will." Contradictory, of course.
@smithichie But that is the nature of the cult. A cult must have an unintelligible doctrine and the cult leaders must constantly pretend that the gibberish makes sense and you think that it is nonsensical because you are not spiritual -- there is something wrong with you. If you were in good spiritual standing with the grand-cosmic-goo-goo-fuck then Rick Warren would make perfect sense. That's how they roll. They're assholes.
Yep, it's a familar xian stratagy. It can be seen in how they credit their god with good things and look the other way for the bad. Ray Comfort uses bananas as 'proof' of his god, but a far better choice would have been human pubic lice. Those critters can't live anywhere else but on humans, so if you don't accept evolution then you have to believe they were ones of God's gifts for humanity.
@Godlesspanther There are naturally occurring abortions that happen to "gods" genetically perfect non-sinners every day...guess the page explaining that was missing. : )
Gather up a bunch your loved ones, throw them in a room with a fully grown adult lion that's very hungry. According to the bible that's what god did to us...Loving? grt vid Angie
There are hundreds of billions of galaxies in the known universe. The Milky Way galaxy contains 200 to 400 billion stars all put here to give us twinkly lights to look at ;)
It is amazing to know that there are so many galaxies in the world. Heck, even our human population would not be able to inhabit the entire universe. We can't even inhabit our solar system, other than earth. LOL!
OK, sappy story. Jennifer Garner on the set of "Daredevil", tells stories of very dangerous equipment being used for her stunts. There were several mishaps, one of which could have killed her. Every time, Ben Affleck intervenes to save her from injury/death. (The near fatal one while he was in his Daredevil costume).
I think I know why she fell in love with him :)
On the other hand, I don't recall any god stepping in for flight 3407.
I was already leaning towards Atheism before I started watching ur videos, but with every video I watch I become more & more comfortable & convinced in my belief that there is no God, because as you said...if he were real he wld give a shit. All the evidence supports there NOT being a God...so why do ppl continue to claim there is? Talk about mass delusion on an epic world scale! Seriously people, you all need help! And they say my son isn't normal for having imaginary pokemon....*rolls eyes*
oh, and i'm sure you've seen the very funny Bill Maher's take on this book (related vids). i wish you were a stand up comic, you could kill* with the material... ;)
I've seen some retarded shit written in the comments on Youtube videos, but one of the most memorable was regarding a Mayan-calendar-based notion of armageddon in this form:
"Don't worry about it because if God needs to save us He will but if He doesn't it's just part of His plan"
I'm yet to figure out how a human being operating at above a basic brain-stem level could adopt this into their way of (as they would refer to it) "thinking".
So wait, god totally planned homosexuality and shit, right? This book totally says that whoever or whatever you are god planned it, so if it was planned and recorded, then he had to know, right?
@Alchemydude667 You are just supposed to accept everything Rick says without questioning. Anything that appears to be self-contradictory is a "divine paradox" -- isn't god so mysterious and wonderful? Honesty and truth are redefined. "Truth" is the cult's doctrine, "honesty" is mindlessly agreeing with that doctrine.
What if his reason for these things being allowed to occur?
Could it be that his intent was that you should Learn to help
With in the faith, to change this thing in the world around you.
Would a Entity so Manifestly powerfull but so respect full of free will of personal self, And freedom to choose your own actions? I agree your qouted author is a prick, but maybe? I was so you-
@FireDropTechnologies In continuance, could if you so choose Creation over Destruction,
Bring proof to his Testament that life? Though flawed?
Is still wounderfull and Every thing not broken, Loves it, needs it and clings to it.
Make sence, He loves us, when we love his gift to us, is any thing in life a Curce? or A Blessing? Some times one is the other, This is life hate living? Curce god for things that don't fit your personal dream?
@FireDropTechnologies and continuing? Or give thank's and praise to his works when they do. Is such act so great a bone of contention? In any group of sane or logical person still posessed of Compashion. My life was no bloody dream boat ride, but I don't curce God for it. I pray he spare others and bless me a path such as that I should in living bring end to such wickedness in the world around me, Doing to others as I would they should me, to the best of my mind and harts ability.
When you are done it would be interesting to invite comment by Rick Warren. Turns out that you can contact him through his web site at purposedrivenlife ...
If God plans all parents/conception, then that means he also plans rapes & incest.
I take it RW's theology is some kinda empty-headed/doublethink Calvinism. Something I like to call "derp derp purty sunset" theology. At least a Calvinist theologian would look into the implications of such premises.
PDL is written like it was authored by someone who doesn't believe what he was saying, is actively attempting to manipulate and deceive others, and is doing a poor job of hiding it.
@ShadowPa1adin "authored by someone who doesn't believe what he was saying, is actively attempting to manipulate and deceive others"
He must be a good pastor/priest whatever the F you wanna call em. After all, he's making money right? Isn't that the only REAL god to these people? I highly doubt most priests/pastors/etc. actually buy the crap they're selling. Most of em probably get out of church, go home, do some coke/watch some porn/pick up a hooker/molest a child/count their money/etc....
Its times like this I;m glad my family wasn't really that religouis and just shrugged with I told them I was an athiest. Chirstianity has nothing to offer humanity. I hate even jesus. Jesus had zero good ideas(I think one time he said try not to devalue the money supply)(Thats the only time I know he was right).
OH BOY! God wanted me to have depression and clinical anxiety! I am going to go praise him for all I am worth. This is the scariest book short of the bible...
haha angie I'm loving this PDL series so far. Seriously do Christians not see that if everything is God's plan and God made everything himself then there is no free will and God is a bully?
the "born with mental retardation/severe autism" subject is always something i think about. why would he create a person who has to be put in a group home for the rest of their life, not having any clue or ability to care for themselves in any way shape or form.........he must really love them 8/
Never read the PDL (which sounds like I'm not missing much). Does it talk about that itty bitty little tidbit found in the NT called HELL? If Saint Rick says that everyone's life was planned beginning, middle, and end, and if there IS a Hell with people in it, then God created certain people (who he loves so very much, dontcha know) to burn in Hell forever BEFORE THEY WERE BORN!
I would love the jumping jacks of logic one would have to use to get around that.
@Captainclusterfuck Because Google ad words is the stupidest ad system ever. It just searches for key words, so I get TONS of ads for Bible college, Christian dating, adoption services, the morning after pill...

Angie,keep up the great vids. By the way, are these pdl vids you make, are they to pay for the guilt you feel for actually paying money for that book ? lol
@pamor25 Ha, I didn't buy this book. I got it from a friend who had it mailed to him unsolicited by some church group when he was Pres. of the Denver Humanist group :)
Don't you feel less intelligent just by holding that book in the hand. I feel less intelligent just hearing you quote from it! Must look at some TED or FORA video right after yours for some sanity!
As always, a highlight of my day. I was refreshing your page like a doof since I got up--so, just wondering, will you be posting videos for this series about the same time every day? Either way, keep kicking ass, sweetheart.
So, God designed homosexuals to be "sinners"; and, according to Rick Warren, God wants them to totally accept his design - but they should still try to overcome this sin?
And to you! Good video. I tend to like literary criticism stuff. A professor had us tear apart this awful book on Mao Zedong last semester. There is some sort of powerful satisfaction at tearing apart a published author's work. heheh. More so, than say, a comment on youtube.
Dude if EVERYTHING is in God's plan, then why did he make my friends and their loves gay? And then have them ridiculed by the church loose family and friends and have some even commit suicide! Even with women who have a abortions, is that ALL His plan? Even though He's suppose to loathe abortion...this really makes no sense to me...
yes yes, God did all that, he even created you with that annoying voice and those 2 big moles in your face! I am sure he created you for better things that making all these videos... you are funny! well, you made ma laugh!! and I see how you care about God as you talk so much about Him...

@Alchemydude667 You are just supposed to accept everything Rick says without questioning. Anything that appears to be self-contradictory is a "divine paradox" -- isn't god so mysterious and wonderful? Honesty and truth are redefined. "Truth" is the cult's doctrine, "honesty" is mindlessly agreeing with that doctrine.

Did God?
Or the devil trouble Job?
Did God sudenly take away your free will?
Just because you lived with pervs.
What if his reason for these things being allowed to occur?
Could it be that his intent was that you should Learn to help
With in the faith, to change this thing in the world around you.
Would a Entity so Manifestly powerfull but so respect full of free will of personal self, And freedom to choose your own actions? I agree your qouted author is a prick, but maybe? I was so you-

@FireDropTechnologies In continuance, could if you so choose Creation over Destruction,
Bring proof to his Testament that life? Though flawed?
Is still wounderfull and Every thing not broken, Loves it, needs it and clings to it.
Make sence, He loves us, when we love his gift to us, is any thing in life a Curce? or A Blessing? Some times one is the other, This is life hate living? Curce god for things that don't fit your personal dream?

@FireDropTechnologies and continuing? Or give thank's and praise to his works when they do. Is such act so great a bone of contention? In any group of sane or logical person still posessed of Compashion. My life was no bloody dream boat ride, but I don't curce God for it. I pray he spare others and bless me a path such as that I should in living bring end to such wickedness in the world around me, Doing to others as I would they should me, to the best of my mind and harts ability.

If God plans all parents/conception, then that means he also plans rapes & incest.
I take it RW's theology is some kinda empty-headed/doublethink Calvinism. Something I like to call "derp derp purty sunset" theology. At least a Calvinist theologian would look into the implications of such premises.
PDL is written like it was authored by someone who doesn't believe what he was saying, is actively attempting to manipulate and deceive others, and is doing a poor job of hiding it.

He must be a good pastor/priest whatever the F you wanna call em. After all, he's making money right? Isn't that the only REAL god to these people? I highly doubt most priests/pastors/etc. actually buy the crap they're selling. Most of em probably get out of church, go home, do some coke/watch some porn/pick up a hooker/molest a child/count their money/etc....

Its times like this I;m glad my family wasn't really that religouis and just shrugged with I told them I was an athiest. Chirstianity has nothing to offer humanity. I hate even jesus. Jesus had zero good ideas(I think one time he said try not to devalue the money supply)(Thats the only time I know he was right).

Never read the PDL (which sounds like I'm not missing much). Does it talk about that itty bitty little tidbit found in the NT called HELL? If Saint Rick says that everyone's life was planned beginning, middle, and end, and if there IS a Hell with people in it, then God created certain people (who he loves so very much, dontcha know) to burn in Hell forever BEFORE THEY WERE BORN!
I would love the jumping jacks of logic one would have to use to get around that.

So, God designed homosexuals to be "sinners"; and, according to Rick Warren, God wants them to totally accept his design - but they should still try to overcome this sin?

Dude if EVERYTHING is in God's plan, then why did he make my friends and their loves gay? And then have them ridiculed by the church loose family and friends and have some even commit suicide! Even with women who have a abortions, is that ALL His plan? Even though He's suppose to loathe abortion...this really makes no sense to me...
