this girl is a slut, straight up, thats why she dont like religion, she loves the black cock in her mouth, her ass, her poon, and even 2 in each hole, dirty little slut... fucked up whore, go fucking kill urself cum bucket
there isn't one hundred percent proof the tooth fairy doesn't exist, but it doesn't require faith to not believe in the tooth fairy. you seem to be confused on where the burden of proof belongs.
LOL so using this definition we know that Evolution and the Big Bang theories which people use to discredit the existence of God, are also faith based because they need a leap of faith. 1) No full set of transitional fossils has ever been found. 2) evidence exists that evolution can occur within a species but not from 1 species to another. 3) where is the antimatter that collided with the matter to cause the big bang? What, you don't know? So you just assume it was there in abundance? Oh ok!
Why do YOU care about philosophy? Why would you be a good person if there is no reason? YOU claim you are logical but consider this, if you don't believe in karma or an afterlife than why should you be good? [no fear of punishment] You say you are not christian but who do you think made your laptop, youtube, the internet? For someone who is not christian your really helping us out, anyone watching this is sure to become a christian after.
@boyoboyySH Okay, is that all? Your point is that some christians commit crimes. Thanks for letting me know. Now if you read my comment you may start to understand the meaning of it. That atheism is a meaningless minority not contributing anything of value. Christians have taken over most of the world, but that's not why I am one. The point is that by being atheist you are helping christians exponentially.
@boyoboyySH Well as soon as you can explain how it benefits me to be an atheist. I am constantly rewarded and persecuted for being christian, but it's never boring and that's my biggest woe with atheism, it just seems so boring.
@boyoboyySH Okay, I agree you don't need to believe in fairy tales. But in the same way you don't need to do anything. What do atheists read or follow? Why do atheists obay laws if there is no reason? My point is that I have a book called the bible that I follow and directs my life. What directs an atheists life?
@MrVICIOU5 And I can't believe you're missing the obvious fact that there are consequences for disobeying the law, i.e. you serve time or you receive a fine.
@boyoboyySH Fair to say, but you're still making an assumption which excludes other possibilities. Atheists I have talked to claim it could not be God, even though they don't know how. Do you claim that as well?
@Falkon85 To me, "God did it" is not a sufficient explanation. There must be a comprehensive explanation that we may not know for a long time or ever. I don't claim it could not be god, although I admit I deem it highly improbable. I think as we live in a natural world it's perfectly reasonable to hold out for a natural explanation. If I were to be shown irrefutable proof of the existence of god I would not deny it.
@boyoboyySH According to the laws of science, it would be impossible otherwise. There is X amount of energy and X amount of matter in the universe. It had a beginning, so there was a time before which they did not exist. A result cannot have greater energy than its cause, and matter is finite. My conclusion is that a self-existing, non-physical, intelligent entity of infinite power must have existed prior to that starting point. I can't explain that being, but nothing else really adds up.
@RottingintheMidwest You're right, a natural explanation was found. For a natural phenomenon. If God is spirit as the Bible says, it's not something you can physically test. So, outside of "natural", best case is to use deduction and inference, along with science. I've seen both arguments, and the purely natural explanation falls short. I'm convinced God exists.
I'm not demanding you agree. I'm saying there is good reason to accept the position.
i go to church every week for 16 years debating how we know god exists. not once has someone told me 'u just need faith' thats the answer for islam, hinduism,ect...
christianity is based on fact. its fact that a man called jesus came dwon and performed miracles and died on the cross then rose.scinece even backs this up. i recomend a movie called 'the case for christ' its about a journalist who was an athiest and set out to prove christianity wrong. after reaserach he himself became a christian!
Definitely everyone's view has to be respected for there is no compulsion in religion I assume that you were a Christian before and I would have more respect for your decision to become an atheist if you would have come to a conclusion of Atheism after investigating every religion on your own(not what the media tells). Please remember that Lucifer wants more atheists and will never show himself else everyone would be a believer.
Your video sucks ass and it's really a shame seeing a stupid atheist talking in vain. What made you record this video? You either think that this pathetic comparison of parents and church will make theists reconsider their beliefs or you just wanna show-off cuz you're think you're smart and good looking? Let me help you out, if you're looking for answers, you probably won't be getting any for a loooong time, we're all stuck and it would take a fucking miracle to unstuck us at this point.
Excelent statement! But actially a theist hasNOT ENOUGH faith. In himself. He is happy with the answer "god", because he believes that he isn t smart enough to understand a being who owns the absolute wisdom.
An atheist knows, that there is nothing our brain can t do. So how could a god possibly be more intelligent than we are. Homo Homini Deus Est (Ludwig Feuerbach)
@IsolationInstigation I ask because of your comments. Based on those, it's likely that you see women as objects, from which you can pleasure yourself as you want to. That you haven't been given/accepted much love, and you think you need to take from a woman's dignity to satisfy yourself because you have trouble showing love to others. It's likely, but I could be wrong.
What gives you the right to take a woman's dignity?
@Falkon85 Wow... That's alot to take in. Well, for one I don't think I have right over anyone. Whatever image you've created is not very accurate at all. I have my own opinions about some women, but not all women in general, that would just be stupid, and I certainly don't mean to "take" their dignity. Is there really any need to ask me such questions? And I happen to come from a very loving family. Which comments are you referring to? Mind pming this? If you really have to continue talking.
@Falkon85 Because why do I have to explain my reasons to you? Not to mention you're accusing me of alot of very bold things, why should I have to explain anything to you? :S.
Funny how you use the words "facts," and "truth,"
remember, your an atheist, "truth" isn't exhaustive, you fill in that gap with "confidence" (in other words faith upon yourself that you hope your right)
You use the laws of logic too. The law of self identity is only self evident because of what your parents told you "because I (in this case you) said so."
You don't know know that for certain but if you took a leap of faith, is that really an answer at all?
@inception1928 Shorter leap of faith- it's the more logical conclusion. I can potentially piss off a god by only following Christianity, or I can completely miss my mark, considering the amount of religions there are. If this 'god' is all knowing, IT would/should/coukd understand why human beings cannot fathom to believe in such a being, especially with all the lack of evidence. If it's not capable of that, what kind of a god worth worshipping is that?
@inception1928 Faith is defined as: "A belief in something for which there is no evidence." Religion fulfills this definition, as it has no supporting evidence. Atheism however, is the LACK of belief in a God, nothing more, nothing less. You don't have to accept scientific theory to be an Atheist. The burden of proof is on those who claim that God does exist.
Elements in an Act of Faith: 1) It is an act of INTELLIGENCE: it furnishes clear PROOF or EVIDENCE that what God testified to really exists, even though not seen (Heb. 11,1); by it we UNDERSTAND that God CREATED the world .
2) Faith also requires an OBEDIENCE OF THE WILL inducing man's intellect to accept the testimony of God. Hence, faith is a free assent of man; that is, it is within the powers of man to believe and be saved, or not to believe and be condemned and judged.
@kevfal Your full of crap. Quoting scripture? Jeese what a uneducated moron. Jesus was a shepard king and his name was Iesus, an Egyptian king. Historical fact. The same ass holes known as "government" who lie about everything also gave you your corrupt religion. Without your dumb book I will bet your speechless. That would be very good actually.
God, not chance, created and governs this material universe. God Who wrote His Bible is God Who creates, governs and brings to fulfilment for His own purposes, all material creation. At times, He disclosed Himself as being both God the Author of the Bible and God the Creator. Never does God's Holy Bible present God as a passive spectator. Never does the Bible propose or condone belief in evolution.---God's Word Modernists Refuted Bible Verified by Fr. Paul Trinchard, S.T.L.
"How did the world get here?" we must not say that it caused itself, for that would be to assert the absurdity that it existed as a cause to give itself existence as an effect. Nor can we say that the world is an outpouring, a manifestation or realization of God, as pantheism teaches. Nor can we say that the world is eternal, uncaused, infinite, and necessary, as materialism asserts. There is only one answer left: THE WORLD WAS CREATED.
With materialism and pantheism REJECTED as utterly inadequate, we are left but one doctrine on the production of the world. This doctrine, therefore, must, by exclusion, be true. IT IS CALLED THE DOCTRINE OF CREATIONISM, and it asserts that the world was produiced by an act of God's infinite will, which called it out of nothingness into real existence.
Pantheism says that there is but one substance; this is God. In short, Pantheism contradicts reason, contradicts consciousness and Pantheism would lead to unthinkable consequences in practical life. Pantheism destroys personality in men and makes all men one with one another and one with God. Thus there can be no individual free-will, no individual responsibility.
Pantheism and Materialsim are called MONISM because they theach that the universe is made of one single kind of substance,
Yet, motion is essentially a thing given, communicated, received. Motion is not self-originating, but must be traced to a FIRST MOVER, itself unmoved. How, then, does the atom get its necessary motion? If nothing but matter exists, motion in matter becomes an utter impossibility. So as we have seen, materialism as a theory wholly incapable of explaining the production of the world.
If materialism were true, then every one of the particles of matter (atoms) would be necessary, eternal, infinite! A thing made up of parts, as matter is made up of atoms, can only amount to the sum of its parts, and if these be finite (as parts must be!) then the whole sum of parts is finite. Therefore, materialism cannot be true.
If materialism were true, each atom of matter would be necessarily endowed with force or motion.
appreciation of poetry, music, art, etc. Further, if materialism were true, there could be no accounting for intellectual knowledge or free-will. Material objects are essentialily individual, and intellectual knowledge is essentially founded upon universal ideas or concepts. Free-will is self-direction following intellectual judgment, and matter is essentially inert and not self-directive.
Materialism can not be true. That is Nothing exists but bodily matter. There is no spirit, no soul, no God. No Materialism is not a fact. If materialism were true, then mind and matter would be the same; or rather, mind would be but a phase or development of matter. But matter always has extension: and mind has no extension. Besides, mind can deal with things that transcend the limits of matter, things like unity, truth, goodness, honor, ideals,
What is God? we say: God is Self-Existent Being; God is Subsistent Being Itself (the metaphysical essence of God, expressed in metaphysical definitions); or
God is Infinite Spirit; God is a Spirit Infinitely Perfect (the physical essence of God, expressed in physical definitions.
God is Self-Existent Being; He is Subsistent Being Itself. This is a metaphysical definition of God-metaphysical, because it consists of the essential realities that are understood to make up the very idea of God. In the physical order God is a real being, infinite and spiritual; and we express this FACT in the physical definition of God: God is a Spirit infinitely perfect.
Honesty with oneself demands a seperation from organised religion as we are all different and therefore have different spiritual needs. Questioning faith is vitally important for personal development. Then be honest with the answers.
Give me a break how can serious scientist believe this evolution BS? It is because they look for a cause outside of ID (Jesus). When this is done, they will find something to say, and they will deceive themselves and others to believe that greatest lie ever told. If we don't accept Jesus now when we are alive, the devil will claim us when we die. You cannot say u haven't been warned. U say I threaten u, but if u feel threaten, u must believe God exists deep down & with good reason.
@ajlapiana You threatening us doesn't mean that we feel threatened. I could say that I'm going to come to your house and strangle you. You probably don't believe it for a second, yet I still threatened you.
@Fortune2point0 Your point as been made, but I am NOT meaning to threaten as much as to bring a warning of urgent information to your immediate attention. I understand that it may sound like foolishness to you, but to me it is the power of God. We can't both be right! We have billions of intelligent people that believe in a spiritual realm even if some of those realms are in the realm of deception. There are very few in comparison that don't believe. I hope you come to the knowledge of truth.
@ajlapiana "We have billions of intelligent people that believe in a spiritual realm" It is possible to be both intelligent and misled/scared. I wonder how many people lack a belief deep down, but will not admit it for fear of eternal torment?
I hope I some day learn the truth too, but I doubt humanity will figure out how the universe came to be in my lifetime.
If u read carefully I mentioned that some of them could be in the realm of deception. If people lack a belief deep down, but will not admit it for fear of eternal torment then they a qualifiers for the realm of deception as I mentioned. I would also go as far as to say they are NOT very intelligent if they don't believe in the spiritual realm & still fear eternal torment; in fact, it sounds like they might be mentally ill. What even makes less sense is holding onto unnecessary ignorance of God
@ajlapiana Irrational fears are very common. I can't say I believe ghosts/demons/whatever exist, but I'm still scared to go in my basement alone when it's dark, on the off chance they do exist. I know it's an irrational fear, but there really isn't anything I can do about it.
@Fortune2point0 Just because you're afraid doesn't mean that they are NOT really out to get you! That was meant to be funny. Seriously, if you're scared, it is NOT an irrational fear, and there is nothing you can do about it, because they do exist. I don't fear them 'cause greater is HE in me than him that is in the world. You don't have the protection I have against demons cause you reject Christ. Your fear is NOT irrational it is very real and it has torment that u haven't fully realized yet!
@ajlapiana Yes, it is an irrational fear. There is no evidence to suggest "they" exist, and I do not believe that they exist, yet I still hold a fear of them. Just as there are people who do not believe a god exists, yet fear the eternal torture sentenced to non believers on the off chance that it does exist. Both fear of monsters/ghosts/whatever and fear of eternal torture are irrational and unjustified.
I notice that u changed the term demon for monster. Demons are fallen angels. I have seen an angel, so how can I deny they exist? I once had an irrational fear of monsters as a child.
To be perfectly honest with you, I cannot really relate to an atheist, because I had never been one. I believe in God like I believe the sun rose this morning NOT because I saw it but for the reason I see everything else around me because of it. I'll give u this, u are one of the most civil atheist on youtube.
@ajlapiana Monsters, demons, ghosts, faeries, boogeymen, goblins, wizards, etc., I group it all together, it's essentially the same stuff. Folk lore and stories.
You believe in a god because you were raised believing in one (I'm assuming). Were you raised to be a skeptic and actually think about what it is you believe, I have no doubt you would be an atheist as well.
I am sure ur right about the way one is raised has an impact on what is believed, but eventually they come to decide for themsleves whether to contunue or reject it. The Apostle Paul wanted Christians dead & hunted them down until Jesus knock him off his high horse literally. Those who have experienced the spiritual realm can never deny it exists. There's a huge difference bwt faeries, boogeymen, spagetti monster & pink unicorns to the existence of angels & demons. The devil has u where he wants
@ajlapiana It isn't a matter of choice. I can't choose to believe in a god, even if I wanted to, it was NEVER a matter of choice for me, as long as I can remember, I have never believed in a god, and have never been able to. Those who experienced the "spiritual realm" probably would have just called it a hallucination if they hadn't been believers.
What's the difference? All of those appear in books, none of them have any evidence to support their existence.
Every thing we do is a matter of choice. We are free to choose as we wish, but we are NOT free from the consequence of those choices. Faith is the substance of the things we Christians hope for & the evidence of the things NOT seen. You cannot come to Christ unless the Father draws you to Him. So I understand that what I say is foolishness to you, but to us Christians, it is the power of God. Right now you have the wrath of God abiding on your head, but it doesn't have to be that way. Ask God
@ajlapiana No, it is NOT a matter of choice. I can not choose to believe in a god. I can say I do, I can pray and go to church, but I can not choose what I believe in, my rational mind will not let me. If that was the case, I'd just convert to every religion on my death bed just to be safe.
I am beginning to believe you're NOT deliberating on anything I write. I understand that you can't come to Christ because God has to draw you. When that happens, your mind and heart will let you make a choice, BUT you have the choice now to ask God to show you if He is real even though you don't believe He is. You can ask the God u don't believe: God show me if you're real because my mind won't let me believe. Don't tell me you can't choose to do that or I'll call you a liar!
I can respect that you tried. God responds in His time NOT ours. The delay in your case may NOT be a denial. I don't know what u asked or what attitude u had. I know that King Herod asked Jesus for proof of His divinity & miracles, but Jesus did no signs for Him. Let me, a man of faith, pray that God shows you something to help your lack of faith. When he does, I have to warn you that the devil will immediately come to steal the seed in u'r heart. You'll have to guard it.
I'm sorry, but in that context, that comment is hollow and clichéd. Turning your back on your faith might help YOU "live life" (in the way you define it), but it's poor advice at best. It sure does sound catchy though.
@ajlapiana Are you sure? How do you know? Is it real? What about those poor indigenous people living in the rain forest? Do they know? Do they think they are poor? Do they even need anything else but the rain forest? How do you know God is a boy. It could be a girl. It could be an neuter, or a hermaphrodite. Noooo!!! That's an abomination.
Think of the diversity of minds around the world. It's too simple to think there is one universal truth.
The belief that a cosmic Jewish Zombie who was his own father can make you live forever if you symbolically eat his flesh and telepathically tell him you accept him as your master, so he can remove an evil force from your soul that is present in humanity because a rib-woman was convinced by a talking snake to eat from a magical tree.
It is good to ask questions about life... i ask questions, it is healthy to do so... I am a Muslim... When I used to see read something in Islam/ about Islam, I would find or ask for the answer because sometimes things need to be explained to us.... unlike when our parents would say "don't go outside in the rain because I said so"...When have to know "why??"
You address the problem with Atheism in this video yourself.
"If the answer to any question requires a leap of faith, is it really an answer at all?"
Atheism requires a belief in pure science and mathematics to explain how the universe works. But ultimately pure science and mathematics break their own rules in explaining how the universe came into existence in the first place. Any explanation to move past this point requires a leap of faith of some sort, a belief in something unproven.
@modonn1268 That's because science does not have all the answers yet. Nor does it claim to. As opposed to religion which claims to have ALL the answers. I'd rather side with logic and reason than some man made myth.
@declanp1 The problem with siding with logic and reason is that it doesn't work. This isn't because science doesn't have all the answers. It's because the answers science already has compels it to break its rules. The "man made myth" isn't an attempt to fill in where science is lacking. It is an attempt to explain why science is allowed to break it's own rules. No scientist, using science, has been able to explain this without a leap of faith into theorizing something that can't be proven.
@modonn1268 You have no idea what you're talking about. Anyone who says "The problem with siding with logic and reason is that it doesn't work." should get their brain examined! Atheism doesn't "require" a belief in anything. However, I'll side with science, logic and reason over a fairy tale with zero facts any day.
@declanp1 Fine... Go ahead and side with science, logic, and reason. I'm not trying to take sides here. I'm only saying that if you are trying to use science, logic, and reason to argue against religion, it doesn't work. Any scientist without an agenda will tell you this, because ultimately science must be hypocritical and do the same thing religion does. It must call on something that can't be proven to work.
@declanp1 And yes, atheism does require a belief in science and mathematics to explain things. Atheism is the firm belief that there is no deity, that things are as they are, pure and simple. This means all that is left to explain the universe is science. An Agnostic does not require a belief in anything because an agnostic professes to not know know what to believe. Which then begs the question, are you an atheist, or an agnostic?
@modonn1268 Neither atheism nor agnosticism are belief systems. Atheism is the lack of belief in a god, nothing more, nothing less. I could be an atheist yet believe the world is composed entirely of tic-tacs and mustard.
It doesn't go [Atheism---Agnosticism---Theism]. It's more like a grid, on the X axis there's agnosticism and gnosticism, and on the Y axis, atheism and theism.
If you do not actively believe a god exists, you are an atheist. There's no middle ground.
Ok atheists, or as I like to call you, my fellow friends, go to this website and take this intresting test that shows proof of Gods existence. Im not going to lie, its pretty interesting. Google this-------> (proof that god exists) and it should be the first link. Click on the first link and take the test and youll have second thoughts of the existence of God.
@MrRamstein777 It gets very tiring to see Christians claiming to "prove" God exists. The existence of God is left up to faith. Biblically speaking, God wants you to believe in that which is beyond proof. If you can prove something, then the belief in it becomes rather meaningless. When you can "prove" God exists, you can throw your Bible in the trash because faith means nothing anymore. It's a bit of a paradox, yes. By the way, I checked the site. I am a Christian and it proves nothing.
@modonn1268 "If you can prove something, then the belief in it becomes rather meaningless. When you can "prove" God exists, you can throw your Bible in the trash because faith means nothing anymore" Good point! Without faith we cannot please God. Those that come to Him must believe that He is. He is a rewarded of those who diligently seek Him.
So you are smarter than God. That is up to you. If you want to see proof that God is real, just look at His creation. That is the art of God. If you want to know if He cares about your soul, look at Jesus Christ dieing of the cross. Not dieing for His sins(for He committed none)but for all of our sins. That's the heart of God. Wow, there is a God !!! ( warnings of wrath . com )
I think you must even be smarter than her. You know your God exists and of all the religions out there that your God is definitely the one who created all this. You know you are right just because you believe it is true. You know that religion couldn't have sprung from the ideas I discuss in my channel bio.
You know that love really means sending 2/3 of the world population in an eternal lake of fire. I can't even begin to understand that. You must be very smart.
@CMrace Not that simple. Everyone has broken the law. If a parent doesn't punish and teach a child when caught in the act of doing something wrong, they're being irresponsible. So IF you cling to the things God forbids and arrogantly reject Jesus, what is the Father to do with YOUR choice? He is just in punishing you, as demanded by your decisions. Or would you rather reward the bratty child, let them do whatever they want and give them everything. but never punish or discipline them?
You accuse me of arrogance for rejecting your God yet have no problem saying that all the other Gods are false. That's hippocracy.
If the purpose of punishment is to teach, would killing a child will teach them to behave better? God eternally kills people. How does this teach anything?
You bring up rewarding a bratty child. Is heaven meant for bratty people who just know they are right, blame others for Gods injustice, and do and say whatever they want using his name as a shield?
Well look at the generation of kids today that were raised under "Because I said so" parents versus the ones raised under the parents who gave the kids "Freedom from authority".... And then ask yourself why America is the laughing stock of the world.. We have replaced moral value and TRUE academia with psuedo-scientism and "sexual liberation" ( I prefer sexual IRRESPONSIBILITY)... Today s American culture is "free" but a LOT more embarrassing, and morally/educationally impotent.
@shess0501 I'll answer it down. Fine, I'll put it another way: if 'god' exists, so must Zeus, Allah, Yaweh, and the deity of Zoroastrianism. They all say they are real, they are the "right" god (More so the last three than Zeus.), and the former three also have scriptures on them.
@shess0501 It's also irresponsible to think that because we haven't disproven it, there's a chance of it being right. Then santa and gnomes must be right... right? Elves? Hobbits? Middle Earth?
I'm not trying to insult anyone and I respect people of all creeds, but I believe that religions/gods were invented by men long ago to simply manipulate people. To me it's all mythology that I refuse to accept as "the truth." Anyway, I'm a proud atheist and everyone should believe in what makes sense to them in their hearts. The masses aren't always right.
@dmak500 I can only speak for myself not the rest of Atheists. "against" is and is not an accurate word. Athesits don't believe in any religion and we are against some religions that we see harmful or detrimental... if Buddhists started to blue laws or discriminate poeple based on X, Y and B then we would bother about it more. Maybe stupid but more ilogical, superstition, doesn't make sense and there's no compelling evidence to believe the claims, yes, we consider them fairytales.
No, I was thinking if you are not against Buddhism you are not really an atheist. If you support some religions, you are not really an atheist. Anyway...
@dmak500 Being an atheist doesn't equal being against all, I reject Buddhism because I don't believe the claims but I don't give buddhism the attention I give to other religions. why? when was the last time you saw buddhists: bashing people based on gender or sexual orientation, blue laws, deny equal rights, put bombs, indoctrinate children, stone women to death etc?. Atheism= "without belief in a god or gods", if you are in that condition towards religious claims you are an Atheist, period.
dmak500 You understand that the whole notion of having to prove a negative doesn't really jive, don't you? I can't prove that sock fairies don't frolick in my dresser drawer when I'm sleeping then disappear. In every case, the burden of proof lies with the person making the claim. As an atheist, I'm not claiming that there absolutely is no God. I'm rejecting your claim that there necessarily is one. It's not that I'm selling something, it's that I'm not buying what your selling. none of us are.
like i said in my question, i was asking if you and your buddies oppose any religion. By definition, Atheist means one doesn't believe any deity exists whether it's Buddha or Jesus or any other.
It requires more faith to believe that the world magically appeared (evolution) versus believing that there is a divine force. It doesn't take faith...because I feel love...I feel when something is "evil"...it's not based on faith, it's based on my own intuitive feelings about truth. Our hearts know what truth is. Search deep in the heart, not in the mind...and there you will find God. If you don't seek, don't desire, then that's your God-given free-will choice. Seek and ye shall find...
To clarify...it DOES take faith...faith is the always the first step. A baby has faith it can walk, or it would never even try. We have faith in a lot of things we can't see or hear. The love you feel in your heart...you can't see, but you can feel it. You know it exists. The Bible says God is love. All of the projections people place on God are because they are disconnected from their heart and are reacting in fear of what people say God is. Hell is simply disconnection from God.
@supersmash43 there are many people who are not religious at all, yet believe in god. there for, non religious is not good enough to describe atheism....
@DoveNiki so what is now a God? Define God. There are different definitions of God. You have to be religious in order to believe in the theistic 'God'.
idiotic video. of course, all things require a leap of faith to believe. you, for instance, may believe that you are making sense. this is your own leap of faith - faith in your own mind to make sense of itself. unfortunately, it does not.
You can be an independent thinker and believe in God. And because there are things in this world that we can never understand, it is okay to trust God when he says it is a certain way. Now, that doesn't mean I just turn off my brian and stop being curious. It simply means that for now, I am okay with God being more knowledgable than I am, lol. And also, I can demand things from my parents because they are just human like me, but it starts to get a bit arrogant when I demand things from God.
I'm glad only stupid people believe in God because it's totally impossible for something to exist if we haven't seen or heard it. Its silly to believe something we don't know could exist since a lot of smart people were taught by experts who know everything. This is science people. we all evolved randomly! Love and hate, awareness of concepts like good and evil is simply what happens when matter and energy crash and colide around in space. it evolves into purposeless action that functions.
@dard1313 "I'm glad only stupid people believe in God because it's totally impossible for something to exist if we haven't seen or heard it"
you've got to be kidding, right? by your statement, everything you haven't seen or heard, you take on faith. come on, man...
if "only stupid people believe in god" then you would have to try to fit some of the most brilliant scientists in history into that category. re-think your position, young jedi.
@dard1313 whoah- my bad! LOL! the spoof on atheism threw me for a loop simply because so many atheists are precisely that idiotic! allright i've been 'punk'd' :)
This video has more holes than swiss cheese. You seem to forget that parents put restrictions on their children for their benefit. At the time, kids don't realize the why, until later in life. Secondly, you haven't given much thought to, as you say, the most philosophical question in the world. A simply naturalistic view of our existence is the only one that's proven wrong. The origin of our universe demands a supernatural answer. Stick to your "staying single" videos...
@zxul767 Smarter than me? She may be... but she's still wrong. Secondly, she had it coming by simply generalizing every person of faith into a category of "people who don't consider the most fundamental and philosophical questions of life," which is an absurd insinuation. I do consider these things and my faith is based on what I know (fact). I did make my points, and they still stand. She had no point to this video other than to insult. Be nice if she provided one of these so-called "facts."
We have seen the power of God in our lives? Thanks Zeus I can see now. Thanks Buddha. Thanks Muslim God Thanks Jewish God. thanks Tom Cruise. Think like a 1 year old don't question Religion. What is beyond the clouds. And beyond that. Lord Vader bless them with thy Mercy. Buddha still loves you even when you go to hell.
Hey pretty, you have to be infintely wise to be an atheist.
Most of Man's greatest inventions are invisible to the human eye, yet we believe in them not necessarily because we understand how they work, but because they work for us..(electricity, telecommunications, etc)
We have seen the power of God at work in our lives, and that is why we believe.
Sorry its not a response to your video, I just thot I let you know.
My guess is that your a "free spirit" plus your kinda cute so your using that to your advantage by touching on a contraversial topic. Do you Kill people MICKIPEDIA? No? I thought not. why not? because it's wrong? because there are consequences? who sais there are consequences, man? society? judges,? courts? where did they get the notion to think its wrong? I'll tell you. The Bible.
@zxul767 no. to tell you the truth I forgot all about commentng on this video until you commented directly to me. thats how much i dont care about this chick. her being kinda cute doesnt vex me. her being "smart" is debatable, just because she can form sentences when she speaks doesnt constatute being a smart person. anyway i didnt even bother watching this video again so i cant remember what its about.

@Falkon85 To me, "God did it" is not a sufficient explanation. There must be a comprehensive explanation that we may not know for a long time or ever. I don't claim it could not be god, although I admit I deem it highly improbable. I think as we live in a natural world it's perfectly reasonable to hold out for a natural explanation. If I were to be shown irrefutable proof of the existence of god I would not deny it.
boyoboyySH 4 months ago
@boyoboyySH According to the laws of science, it would be impossible otherwise. There is X amount of energy and X amount of matter in the universe. It had a beginning, so there was a time before which they did not exist. A result cannot have greater energy than its cause, and matter is finite. My conclusion is that a self-existing, non-physical, intelligent entity of infinite power must have existed prior to that starting point. I can't explain that being, but nothing else really adds up.

@RottingintheMidwest You're right, a natural explanation was found. For a natural phenomenon. If God is spirit as the Bible says, it's not something you can physically test. So, outside of "natural", best case is to use deduction and inference, along with science. I've seen both arguments, and the purely natural explanation falls short. I'm convinced God exists.
I'm not demanding you agree. I'm saying there is good reason to accept the position.

@inception1928 Shorter leap of faith- it's the more logical conclusion. I can potentially piss off a god by only following Christianity, or I can completely miss my mark, considering the amount of religions there are. If this 'god' is all knowing, IT would/should/coukd understand why human beings cannot fathom to believe in such a being, especially with all the lack of evidence. If it's not capable of that, what kind of a god worth worshipping is that?
TomRaphaelWolf 8 months ago
@inception1928 Faith is defined as: "A belief in something for which there is no evidence." Religion fulfills this definition, as it has no supporting evidence. Atheism however, is the LACK of belief in a God, nothing more, nothing less. You don't have to accept scientific theory to be an Atheist. The burden of proof is on those who claim that God does exist.

Elements in an Act of Faith: 1) It is an act of INTELLIGENCE: it furnishes clear PROOF or EVIDENCE that what God testified to really exists, even though not seen (Heb. 11,1); by it we UNDERSTAND that God CREATED the world .
2) Faith also requires an OBEDIENCE OF THE WILL inducing man's intellect to accept the testimony of God. Hence, faith is a free assent of man; that is, it is within the powers of man to believe and be saved, or not to believe and be condemned and judged.

"How did the world get here?" we must not say that it caused itself, for that would be to assert the absurdity that it existed as a cause to give itself existence as an effect. Nor can we say that the world is an outpouring, a manifestation or realization of God, as pantheism teaches. Nor can we say that the world is eternal, uncaused, infinite, and necessary, as materialism asserts. There is only one answer left: THE WORLD WAS CREATED.

viz., either the divine substance, or matter.
With materialism and pantheism REJECTED as utterly inadequate, we are left but one doctrine on the production of the world. This doctrine, therefore, must, by exclusion, be true. IT IS CALLED THE DOCTRINE OF CREATIONISM, and it asserts that the world was produiced by an act of God's infinite will, which called it out of nothingness into real existence.

Pantheism says that there is but one substance; this is God. In short, Pantheism contradicts reason, contradicts consciousness and Pantheism would lead to unthinkable consequences in practical life. Pantheism destroys personality in men and makes all men one with one another and one with God. Thus there can be no individual free-will, no individual responsibility.
Pantheism and Materialsim are called MONISM because they theach that the universe is made of one single kind of substance,

Yet, motion is essentially a thing given, communicated, received. Motion is not self-originating, but must be traced to a FIRST MOVER, itself unmoved. How, then, does the atom get its necessary motion? If nothing but matter exists, motion in matter becomes an utter impossibility. So as we have seen, materialism as a theory wholly incapable of explaining the production of the world.
kevfal 9 months ago
If materialism were true, then every one of the particles of matter (atoms) would be necessary, eternal, infinite! A thing made up of parts, as matter is made up of atoms, can only amount to the sum of its parts, and if these be finite (as parts must be!) then the whole sum of parts is finite. Therefore, materialism cannot be true.
If materialism were true, each atom of matter would be necessarily endowed with force or motion.

"If the answer to any question requires a leap of faith, is it really an answer at all?"
Atheism requires a belief in pure science and mathematics to explain how the universe works. But ultimately pure science and mathematics break their own rules in explaining how the universe came into existence in the first place. Any explanation to move past this point requires a leap of faith of some sort, a belief in something unproven.

@modonn1268 That's because science does not have all the answers yet. Nor does it claim to. As opposed to religion which claims to have ALL the answers. I'd rather side with logic and reason than some man made myth.

@declanp1 The problem with siding with logic and reason is that it doesn't work. This isn't because science doesn't have all the answers. It's because the answers science already has compels it to break its rules. The "man made myth" isn't an attempt to fill in where science is lacking. It is an attempt to explain why science is allowed to break it's own rules. No scientist, using science, has been able to explain this without a leap of faith into theorizing something that can't be proven.
modonn1268 10 months ago
@modonn1268 You have no idea what you're talking about. Anyone who says "The problem with siding with logic and reason is that it doesn't work." should get their brain examined! Atheism doesn't "require" a belief in anything. However, I'll side with science, logic and reason over a fairy tale with zero facts any day.
declanp1 10 months ago
@declanp1 Fine... Go ahead and side with science, logic, and reason. I'm not trying to take sides here. I'm only saying that if you are trying to use science, logic, and reason to argue against religion, it doesn't work. Any scientist without an agenda will tell you this, because ultimately science must be hypocritical and do the same thing religion does. It must call on something that can't be proven to work.
modonn1268 10 months ago
@declanp1 And yes, atheism does require a belief in science and mathematics to explain things. Atheism is the firm belief that there is no deity, that things are as they are, pure and simple. This means all that is left to explain the universe is science. An Agnostic does not require a belief in anything because an agnostic professes to not know know what to believe. Which then begs the question, are you an atheist, or an agnostic?
modonn1268 10 months ago
@modonn1268 Neither atheism nor agnosticism are belief systems. Atheism is the lack of belief in a god, nothing more, nothing less. I could be an atheist yet believe the world is composed entirely of tic-tacs and mustard.
It doesn't go [Atheism---Agnosticism---Theism]. It's more like a grid, on the X axis there's agnosticism and gnosticism, and on the Y axis, atheism and theism.
If you do not actively believe a god exists, you are an atheist. There's no middle ground.

Ok atheists, or as I like to call you, my fellow friends, go to this website and take this intresting test that shows proof of Gods existence. Im not going to lie, its pretty interesting. Google this-------> (proof that god exists) and it should be the first link. Click on the first link and take the test and youll have second thoughts of the existence of God.

@MrRamstein777 It gets very tiring to see Christians claiming to "prove" God exists. The existence of God is left up to faith. Biblically speaking, God wants you to believe in that which is beyond proof. If you can prove something, then the belief in it becomes rather meaningless. When you can "prove" God exists, you can throw your Bible in the trash because faith means nothing anymore. It's a bit of a paradox, yes. By the way, I checked the site. I am a Christian and it proves nothing.

@modonn1268 "If you can prove something, then the belief in it becomes rather meaningless.

Those that come to Him must believe that He is. He is a rewarded of those who diligently seek Him.

So you are smarter than God. That is up to you. If you want to see proof that God is real, just look at His creation. That is the art of God. If you want to know if He cares about your soul, look at Jesus Christ dieing of the cross. Not dieing for His sins(for He committed none)but for all of our sins. That's the heart of God. Wow, there is a God !!! ( warnings of wrath . com )

I think you must even be smarter than her. You know your God exists and of all the religions out there that your God is definitely the one who created all this. You know you are right just because you believe it is true. You know that religion couldn't have sprung from the ideas I discuss in my channel bio.
You know that love really means sending 2/3 of the world population in an eternal lake of fire. I can't even begin to understand that. You must be very smart.

@CMrace Not that simple. Everyone has broken the law. If a parent doesn't punish and teach a child when caught in the act of doing something wrong, they're being irresponsible. So IF you cling to the things God forbids and arrogantly reject Jesus, what is the Father to do with YOUR choice? He is just in punishing you, as demanded by your decisions. Or would you rather reward the bratty child, let them do whatever they want and give them everything. but never punish or discipline them?

@Falkon85
You accuse me of arrogance for rejecting your God yet have no problem saying that all the other Gods are false. That's hippocracy.
If the purpose of punishment is to teach, would killing a child will teach them to behave better? God eternally kills people. How does this teach anything?
You bring up rewarding a bratty child. Is heaven meant for bratty people who just know they are right, blame others for Gods injustice, and do and say whatever they want using his name as a shield?

Well look at the generation of kids today that were raised under "Because I said so" parents versus the ones raised under the parents who gave the kids "Freedom from authority".... And then ask yourself why America is the laughing stock of the world.. We have replaced moral value and TRUE academia with psuedo-scientism and "sexual liberation" ( I prefer sexual IRRESPONSIBILITY)... Today s American culture is "free" but a LOT more embarrassing, and morally/educationally impotent.

@shess0501 I'll answer it down. Fine, I'll put it another way: if 'god' exists, so must Zeus, Allah, Yaweh, and the deity of Zoroastrianism. They all say they are real, they are the "right" god (More so the last three than Zeus.), and the former three also have scriptures on them.

I'm not trying to insult anyone and I respect people of all creeds, but I believe that religions/gods were invented by men long ago to simply manipulate people. To me it's all mythology that I refuse to accept as "the truth." Anyway, I'm a proud atheist and everyone should believe in what makes sense to them in their hearts. The masses aren't always right.

@dmak500 I can only speak for myself not the rest of Atheists. "against" is and is not an accurate word. Athesits don't believe in any religion and we are against some religions that we see harmful or detrimental... if Buddhists started to blue laws or discriminate poeple based on X, Y and B then we would bother about it more. Maybe stupid but more ilogical, superstition, doesn't make sense and there's no compelling evidence to believe the claims, yes, we consider them fairytales.

@dmak500 Being an atheist doesn't equal being against all, I reject Buddhism because I don't believe the claims but I don't give buddhism the attention I give to other religions. why? when was the last time you saw buddhists: bashing people based on gender or sexual orientation, blue laws, deny equal rights, put bombs, indoctrinate children, stone women to death etc?. Atheism= "without belief in a god or gods", if you are in that condition towards religious claims you are an Atheist, period.
DocStrange0123 1 year ago
dmak500 You understand that the whole notion of having to prove a negative doesn't really jive, don't you? I can't prove that sock fairies don't frolick in my dresser drawer when I'm sleeping then disappear. In every case, the burden of proof lies with the person making the claim. As an atheist, I'm not claiming that there absolutely is no God. I'm rejecting your claim that there necessarily is one. It's not that I'm selling something, it's that I'm not buying what your selling. none of us are.

It requires more faith to believe that the world magically appeared (evolution) versus believing that there is a divine force. It doesn't take faith...because I feel love...I feel when something is "evil"...it's not based on faith, it's based on my own intuitive feelings about truth. Our hearts know what truth is. Search deep in the heart, not in the mind...and there you will find God. If you don't seek, don't desire, then that's your God-given free-will choice. Seek and ye shall find...
HollyDollyHoneypot 1 year ago
To clarify...it DOES take faith...faith is the always the first step. A baby has faith it can walk, or it would never even try. We have faith in a lot of things we can't see or hear. The love you feel in your heart...you can't see, but you can feel it. You know it exists. The Bible says God is love. All of the projections people place on God are because they are disconnected from their heart and are reacting in fear of what people say God is. Hell is simply disconnection from God.

You can be an independent thinker and believe in God. And because there are things in this world that we can never understand, it is okay to trust God when he says it is a certain way. Now, that doesn't mean I just turn off my brian and stop being curious. It simply means that for now, I am okay with God being more knowledgable than I am, lol. And also, I can demand things from my parents because they are just human like me, but it starts to get a bit arrogant when I demand things from God.

I'm glad only stupid people believe in God because it's totally impossible for something to exist if we haven't seen or heard it. Its silly to believe something we don't know could exist since a lot of smart people were taught by experts who know everything. This is science people. we all evolved randomly! Love and hate, awareness of concepts like good and evil is simply what happens when matter and energy crash and colide around in space. it evolves into purposeless action that functions.

This video has more holes than swiss cheese. You seem to forget that parents put restrictions on their children for their benefit. At the time, kids don't realize the why, until later in life. Secondly, you haven't given much thought to, as you say, the most philosophical question in the world. A simply naturalistic view of our existence is the only one that's proven wrong. The origin of our universe demands a supernatural answer. Stick to your "staying single" videos...

Secondly, she had it coming by simply generalizing every person of faith into a category of "people who don't consider the most fundamental and philosophical questions of life," which is an absurd insinuation. I do consider these things and my faith is based on what I know (fact). I did make my points, and they still stand. She had no point to this video other than to insult. Be nice if she provided one of these so-called "facts."

We have seen the power of God at work in our lives, and that is why we believe.
