man,i really respect you.you must have some big balls to be an atheist in texas.have you had any death theats from the god squad?keep it up,you talk a lot of sense.
fatpants2000 - No, but I've had to deal with some irregular people in the religious sphere. I posted a video on page 2 of my videos in the series "When Christians Misbehave" that showed a Nazi Christian attacking me in another state. Other than that, I haven't had any serious incidents. Thanks for the encouragement.
Hobojoe36----Who told you that being an Atheist means that you KNOW god doesn't exist? Probably a Christian. We get that all the time. No gods have been produced for anyone to KNOW about them at all. Of course, most descriptions of "God" are 100% self-contradictory, making that "God" impossible.
true, nobody can 100% KNOW god exists, or the like. so then what's the difference between an atheist and an agnostic?
p.s. it wasn't a christian that told me that, i don't pay much attention to what they have to say on the topic of religion. it was actually in my philosophy of religion class, i'm still rather new to the subject of religion :)
Without anyone finding any real gods, no one can know anything about that god, not 5% or 1%...none. Atheism is an answer to the question "Do you believe in a god?" Agnosticism is an answer to the question "Do you KNOW about a god?" They don't contradict each other, so we can be both at the same time.
hrmm, so if atheism is the answer to the question "Do you believe in a god?" does that make everybody that doesn't believe in a god an atheist? where do you draw the line?
i've been posting comments on a lot of pro-religion videos also, but most of them are getting deleted, i've got so many damn questions and want to get the whole view of religion, both pro and con. why do people believe so whole-heartedly about the existence of god? the only answer that i've been able to conclude is that they were raised to believe in it (also known as brainwashing) from a very young age and that's all they know. ignorance?
Well I am really glad that you're being so nice here. I get a lot of hate-commentary from Christians for my series "When Christians Misbehave." People are stuck on their religions because they were indoctrinated into them at an early age, usually. That and everyone has a fear, so religion capitalizes on that, with threats like "hell."
Technically, anyone who doesn't believe in any gods or goddesses is an Atheist. Now religion provides a lot of gray area to think about, for example, Buddhism, which is mostly godless, but some sects of Buddhism are more into god-ism than others. Plus plenty of people are just in transition.
its about being free. to think the way you want. to go on with you life and not bother
with the aspects of religion. its groups that make religion (and even atheism)dangerous. it creates a single minded perspective that affects the views of others. We should be breaking down walls, not building them
cannibalcannabis420---------It's not like we're in control of American society, Christians are. We try to build bridges, and protect the Wall of State/Church Separation, but other walls aren't so positive. The bottom line: Millions of people are tired of pretending to be religious. We sick of lying for the benefit of religious people, and we're saying so. Christianity be damned, we're free.
I know that, and im just saying i dont want atheism to turn into another hate group.
hate is a sign of intimidation. I never was and never will be threatend by them. I am all for this movement. its just some of these people making videos are very hatefull thus hurting the atheist image. Its important to go at this with a non-violent and intelligent fashion.
evilmonkey8206---Better! I KNOW about science, and how the experimental method is the best possible method for getting at the truth of a matter. We're online typing to each other thanks to secular science. Science is a good thing to "believe in."
That shirt is available in several sizes at American Atheists. They have lots of others to choose from, and I really like the one, "No Submission." I wear my Atheism proudly and I'm always ready to talk about it. :o)
You are amazing well done !!!

being a christian means you KNOW god exists.
being an atheist means you KNOW god doesn't exist.
being an agnostic means you don't know, or don't care either way.
you're an atheist? prove to me god doesn't exist
