Aaron's 13 Questions for Athiests - Zeldarulah

[bluelightingstudio]

awesome!!!

[KingofTheMafia]

aron1994 is the 12 year old little douche bag wit teh unibrow right

[gabbe7]

well this did not answer any of the questions you ask yourself please study before answering such questions

[Zeldarulah]

@gabbe7 Flawless rebuttal.

[earthfreak100]

Funny and good hahaha

[Zeldarulah]

@earthfreak100 Blehhh... Why do people like this video so much? I hate some of my responses here... oh well >.>

[Zeldarulah]

@earthfreak100 Actually now that I watch it again I did kinda like some of the things I said, but some of it mehhh... I might make another atheistic video sometime. Thanks for the feedback.

[eggsaladinthetub]

Two things I hate as a Christian:

Christians slandering atheists and making us look bad.

Christians slandering Muslums and making us look bad.

[WaikatoValuta]

@eggsaladinthetub: And this is relevant to this video clip why?

[sids500]

@eggsaladinthetub Doesn't take slandering to make you look bad! Look at the book you follow. Murder, rape, pillage throughout. Immoral behaviours condoned, indeed ordered by your god. God had an illegitimate son by a married woman, then had him murdered. Lovely. Drowned all except noah, lovely. Ordered the death of the amalacites, lovely. Shall I go on? You do the damage yourselves.

[eggsaladinthetub]

@sids500 Yes, it does sound bad when you take it out of context...

[sids500]

@eggsaladinthetub Please, feel free to expand on exactly what context these heinous crimes are related to, and how they are then made OK? Thats like saying Charles Manson was misunderstood. Wake up!

[ProAtEverything123]

THEwhiteRHINO what are you talking about?Are you a christian or something? Cuz it sounds like your not getting the big picture here. We athiests believe yes that there is no god and no reaon to be here but you dont have to so far as to call him a dumbass steriotypical prick. Honestly, this guys video is really well done, and i praise him. Good job, man. And all christians watching this stop fucking poating crap like that cuz we athiests hate it soo much. Its annoying.

[b0rNc0nfuseD]

@ProAtEverything123 I have no problem with Athiests, but If you don't believe in anything why say that you believe that God doesn't exist, and Athiests say "Atheism is supported by logic." Not only is this wrong, just the opposite is true. In logic, it's

impossible to prove a negative, that is, prove that a God Who Can Do

Anything doesn't exist. When someone claims he is an atheist, he is in

effect claiming to have proven a negative which is a

logical impossibility.

[WaikatoValuta]

@b0rNc0nfuseD: For a start you don't know what atheism is. Look it up. Secondly just because we don't believe in god does not mean we don't believe in anything. It just means we don't believe in god.

Also if I told you I had a magic but invisible fairy who follows me around I doubt you would believe me. Why? Because it would be up to me to prove that it existed. You need to prove god exisits I don't need to prove god does not exist. He does a good job of that himself.

[b0rNc0nfuseD]

@WaikatoValuta Firstly I'd like to say I do respect your opinion and beliefs, but... I don't believe you have any right to tell me I'm an idiot just like I have no right to tell you that your an idiot... like alot of so called Christians do..... but I have done 6 years Psychoanalysis of religion and espescially Atheism... maybe it's you that needs to do a little more research when it comes to your own beliefs.... But I'll say it again, I really don't mean to disrespect you in anyway at all....

[WaikatoValuta]

@b0rNc0nfuseD When did I call you an idiot? This is exactly what you people do. You twist things. I say something about not thinking your logic is good and you turn around and accuse me of calling you an idiot which I simply didn't do.

[b0rNc0nfuseD]

@WaikatoValuta No man, I'm sorry ...I didn't mean it like that... I meant it metaphorically... as in me not making the right choice..... I didn't mean to twist your words.... sorry...

[THEwhiteRHIN0]

this guys a dumb ass, hes the perfect example of a unintelligent irational stariotyping prick, im atheist, fuck religion, all it doed is bring hate, violence, and poverty.

[eggsaladinthetub]

@THEwhiteRHIN0 Yet atheism, when observed in your comment, brings hate, bad grammar, bad spelling, and overall mental retardation.

[BlackFox0911]

If we live for nothing, then we die for nothing. Life then is nothing more than a contradiction

[Zeldarulah]

@BlackFox0911 Life is whatever you want it to be. Nothing more important.

[space13awesomer]

@BlackFox0911 life really has no point,if this earth gets demolished then when you look the universe youlle see that nothings changed.we are like a atom in a hugass ball or square or whatever kind of form the universe is.if we die then nothing else would happen,im trying to say that our existence does not have a part in the universe

[mexivato210]

poor people........praise the almighty

[rollerdrums7]

hahaha, was that final fantasy X's theme song in the background?

[Zeldarulah]

@rollerdrums7 Heh I like adding music from video games in the background of my videos. I feel in general they carry more emotion and are just better than that of the majority of "normal" music.

[adzug]

these qs say much more about the person posting the qs than ppl answering them imho. emotion is an obsticle to truth. when investigating anything, you hafta be as unattached as possible cuz emotion creates bias. youll seek the answer that fits ur ideals instead of the answer thats the truest.

[H3Forge]

How many Athiests does it take to change a light bulb?

2, one does it, the other records it to prove god didn't do it!!!

[Zeldarulah]

Herpderp.

How many Christians does it take to change a light bulb?

They don't bother, they just pray for hours and hope it happens.

[WaikatoValuta]

@Zeldarulah: And it either never happens or someone gets sick of the light being out and sneeks in to do it while no one is looking. Oh my it must have been god!

[oblio1000]

@H3Forge Just one - the world revolves around them - just ask 'em!.

[eggsaladinthetub]

@H3Forge How many atheists does it take to screw in a light bulb? Not enough, they form a commitee to figure out how the light bulb evolved from a match.

[WaikatoValuta]

@eggsaladinthetub: Ummmmmmm.... yeah because science doesn't tell us how light works we need to spend all day talking about some magical and very strange theory. I am pretty sure I could explain anything if I was alloed to just make stuff up.

[airplaneking]

You spelled "atheist" wrong

[Zeldarulah]

Hah, I always manage to do that. I always think 'i before e'

[airplaneking]

just think "ist"

[Pro902]

This video made me lol. Athiesm ftw.

[Olympian085]

Haha. Wow. This guy is an atheist??? The question was why is everything so complex? And he said cause we've been evolving for millions of years...that would make him an evolutionist or Darwinist. DUMBASS

[Zeldarulah]

I don't get it, are you calling me a dumbass because I don't deny evolution? There's no such thing as a Darwinist anymore than there is a Planckist or a Debroligist. Or are you being sarcastic?

[KarakalLynx]

Dude... now I gotta do those 13 questions to myself. Or find this guy's video and post a comment on there with my answers.

Heh...

...I enjoy Christians as a way of having someone to debate with. They probably think I'm totally wrong the same way I believe they are.

...are they enjoying debates nearly as much as I do?

[KarakalLynx]

...Fate ain't just 'sealed' like an envelope. I don't believe that.

Judgement... it's all fear.

Why condemn yourself to a religion that has ONE life, and at the end of it, there's heaven or hell. Oh. and purgatory.

It's fear of going to some... bad place in the end. That your life could be awesomely unChristian and free but it won't amount to nothing if you are "sinful" and go to hell..

...I've had a great godless life. I got morals.

:/ Sometimes it's as if we ain't even considered human.

[rbright79]

The Crusades were carried out by Catholics, not Christians. The Pope is an antichrist because he acts as mediator between man and God the Father, something only the Son has authority to do. The Son is the one who makes saints, not the Catholic church.

[Zeldarulah]

@rbright79 Hm, I don't know if you know this, but Catholics are Christians.

[rbright79]

evolution? ha! name one species that has changed into another! How did the giraffe eat while it was waiting 10 million years for its neck to grow? If we came from monkeys why are there still monkeys?

[Zeldarulah]

@rbright79 Monkies to humans? Small micro organisms into everything else? You fail to understand evolution and it's clear, evolution occurs from mutations that change the species, if these mutations are successful the species will leave and breed, if not, it will die out, or be unable to breed. We came from monkies because the new species of monkies (gorillas, and later us) were able to survive and mate, but so were the originals.

[rhischmi]

Hmm... Have you looked into Darwins Finches? They developed different beak structures based on their limiting resources (food). They only needed to alter their beaks to survive. They didn't change into completely different animals cuz they DIDN'T NEED TO. And of course it would have taken millions of years. If they NEEDED to change into different animals ASAP (eg- for different food sources) I'm supposing they'd die out.

[jagoman85]

Salam. Man what stupid set of questions

[SidewaysDown]

I've got a shorter list of questions that I'd like to see Aaron - or any of the religious posters in the comments here - answer.

It's a very short list.

It's one question.

Here we go...

1) Why do some spiritual people feel it necessary to DEMAND answers - in a feeble and failed attempt to prove some point - from non-believers?

Here, I'll even give you the answer, so everyone can get 100% on this quiz:

A) Because they're actually quite insecure in their own beliefs.

[rbright79]

@SidewaysDown Actually, wrong answer. We are commanded to go out and tell people the good news of the gospel of Christ. That salvation from sins is freely found in Jesus Christ. Many Christians get sidetracked and try to discuss points with non believers instead of getting to the crux of the issue. You can go back and forth with intellectual argument and go nowhere. If people don't want Christ, let them be. They will seal their own fate on Judgment Day.

[joresgon]

I would say those questions where answered the correct way...and catholics and christians think their god is the only one to follow but its all bullshit there are other religions that believe in other gods and them (catholics and christians) believing that is wrong and very disrespectful to all others.

[STRICTLYimbalance]

right to that.. now im seeing things more clearly.. thnx

[alen1alen1]

if u keep talkin liek that and acting evil, ull go to hell kid

[rhischmi]

Why would you care if he did?

Wait... where is hell? And, who's seen it? :/

[rutland1977]

"life is pretty fun, I like, it it's just cool"

lololol :)

[Zeldarulah]

lawl

[el3m3ntsk8s]

Athiesm is just as bad as any other religion, either way both sides are claiming they have the answer...

[hobgob95]

nooooo,

atheism is simply you do not think God exists,

Me personally this is due to lack of evidence, we have no alternative belief to it and no "awnsers."

[SidewaysDown]

That depends. "Athiest" is a broad-brush term assigned to non-believers by religious people. There is - however - no 'Athiest Doctrine'.

So it's not as simple as claiming that Athiests believe they have all the answers. Many of us don't. I personally don't. I'm not saying there is definitely NO higher power. I'm saying I BELIEVE there is no higher power. I'm pretty sure I know what's going to happen when I die (not a damn thing), but since I haven't died... I can't claim to know.

[rhischmi]

Agreed. Noone knows what happens after death... it's never been proven. Which scares people. They want their lives to have some sort of meaning, so they follow the 'heaven' thing. My meaning is to love =)

[admoonhermiz]

you really make me cry,ohhhhhh its not religion who make you kill its you asssssssss fucking humen, kill people. and history tall you that.

[Zeldarulah]

Me kill? As if I kill people? Also I rofled at "humen" reminds me of squirrelking's Half Life: Full Life Consequences series, you should watch the videos, they share your "style" of typing.

[bijoukaiba]

Oh, you beat me to the humen joke. :(

Anyway, I liked the debate you put up for these. I am technically a Christian, but I am very open-minded and scientific (I will probably change religions once I start college). I kinda thought for a while that living forever (afterlife) would be nice... but wouldn't you get bored?

Have you seen Zeitgeist? Really interesting.

[evilloooo]

yes yes .. mankind evolved with mind,emotion and ability to invent just because that's how things are..big bang..bang bang.. makes perfect sense also right ?

yeah right.. the only reason why humans think and talk is to recognize the fact that there's a higher power and admit they're too weak to make the world a better place without morals that their creator told them to stick to..believe it or not..human abuser these morals , does that imply it's God's fault ? no .. it's the humans fault..

[evilloooo]

you can keep asking questions and go like this over and over.. but keep in mind that not everything in life needs full eye recognition to be considered true..i work in the foreign exchange market.. and although everything seems following a technique in there, market can go completely random..not because it's already randomized..but because the existence of many factors can make too hard to predict the market nature.. my point is.. if God meant no test..he would've just showed up..end of story

[evilloooo]

and because we don't know his nature..and how he thinks and scales things..we obviously don't know the "factors" that makes him not showing and confusing to us..could be more than a test for our faith and belief..so whoever you are..athiest or christian or or.. you must have a room in your mind for a possibility that there's a higher power that made this complex , organized world..don't pray for jesus if you want..but believe you're not just (bangly-existed) ..coz it's even more rediculous.

[laxdawgg39]

for question 3 i would use the word delusional

[mercy35687]

Also, let me clarify that I am no athiest.

I fully accept the possibility but reject the idea of religion.

[Zeldarulah]

Agnostics? Nyeh. Well, hey, at least your not religious =P

But I don't see how you can even give it a possibility, it's so rediculously absurd really. Enjoyed your responses though =)

[mercy35687]

AND my favorite, 11...well, let me answer that with another question. Why do bad things happen to good people? Some of these questions (especially the first few) don't even have much to do with God, but with human nature.

[mercy35687]

And 9 as well...Do you know how many people are praying for mommy's cancer to get better? Well, mommy dies. Sorry. As soon as coincidence comes in, many idiots will consider it a miracle. After all, that would be very convenient.

[mercy35687]

6 is easy...because people can't handle the fact that maybe there is nothing after life, or that they are not here for any important reason. People kid themselves all the time and force themselves to believe all kinds of things.

[rumismyfriend]

those people wouldve died anyway, those wars wouldve been fought anyway. what you need to concentrate on is that all the religious answers to tough questions are bullshit

for example if suffering is a test - like in the story of job - surely god would know the outcome as hes all knowing so wouldnt need to put him through the pain of killing his entire family and wrecking his life because he got bored one day and made a bet with the devil (which funnily enough is condemned when people do it)

[Zeldarulah]

By that logic your going to go die anyway eventually, so why not just kill yourself? That's a horrible argument. Although I agree with the religious answers being bullshit thing.

[rumismyfriend]

sorry that point was awfully put across :S

what i meant is that all of those "holy" wars were just usin religion as a front, much like propaganda. but on the whole i really agree with a lot of what you say

[Zeldarulah]

Ah fair enough. True, the crusades and similar wars weren't for the exclusive reason of religion, but still without the excuse of it they may not have gone to war as often, I think, at least.

[amundra3494]

you would put that song at number 10

[Zeldarulah]

Yup

[zuhzo]

I love how you think that the only reason why christians help people in foriegn worlds is to get them to join a group of christians.

There are a variety of different christian groups. Christians do those things to get them saved by Jesus Christ so that they will not live in eternal damnation after they die.

Their intent is not to join a methodist group, baptist group, etc. Christians are worried for their souls; however there are hypocrital christains who disgrace the name of Christ.

[Zeldarulah]

My point is why does the group need to be Christian? Why can't it just not be anything, and just be helping people for the sake of helping people? Notice how many large donations to causes are anonymous, why would you go about advertising something off of it.

[hannahlovesrodney]

What's sad is athiest and other religions that don't acknowledge God. only deny Him because they want to justify the way they live, When they have the mark when Christ comes back it will be a sad day for them Big bang oh please.. God gave us emotions dingy animals don't like we do.. this guy is in satans palm help him...

[njj37]

11. completely false bad thins happen to good ppl and good things happen to bad ppl thats the way our society works

[kreskinkun]

Good answers to some lame questions.

[GayBot6900]

#7 was just funny. There weren't any eyewitnesses of Jesus' resurection. Actually there is no contemporaneous historical evidence that jesus even existed.

But to assume he did, a missing body doesn't mean that there is a celestial zombie. The story goes that the two women went back and he was gone - what about body snatchers? or better yet - he was never there in the first place.

Its so typical for them to say I don't know what happened, and then make up some crazy bullshit lol

[Zeldarulah]

I agree, but hey, at least that question was even partially relevant unlike some of the others

[arcanics1971]

(9). Crohn's disease. As a sufferer of this condition I can answer this one for you. It goes into remission. I was diagnosed in 1990, it went into remission after a minor operation and I didn't suffer again until it came back in 1998.

[arcanics1971]

The guy is Rick Heil and is in christian worship band SONICFLOOd. He claims to have been divinely healed- as does his Doctor- Doctor church, honestly!- who is a fellow christian nutter. On some christian websites they claim it was a terminal disease (its not). Basically, he was either originally misdiagnosed or it went into recession but Dr Church has failed to publish a paper on this miraculous turn of events....odd that.

[gedwashere91]

Ok dude, i'm an atheist, but i think your answers are simplistic and erroneous at best. While admittedly AaronK1994 is an uneducated brainwashed swine, you sorta skirted around his questions sometimes.

1. VERY deep philosophical question, and to be fair, it was a simplistic answer from you countering a simplistic answer from him.

2. Evolution? wtf? I was thinking of Supernovae, Black Holes, Wormholes, Time as a Non-Euclidean Measurement.

I won't go on.

[Zeldarulah]

okeedokee

1. I didn't really have anything else to say, thats the only answer there is according to our science at this time

2. I wasn't sure what he was talking about, the question was a bit simple

[kuzuboshii]

LOL at the Final Fantasy music!

[ethteck]

2:50 - Great part. Nicely phrased.

3:20 - Yeah your cat doesn't like me :( Oh well.

4:20 - Lol I love how you address him right there.

6:00 - "Haha or maybe I'm just an idiot, I don't know." I don't think you are. I haven't heard of this band either.

[Xjustin3009X]

Maybe for spiritual experience he means in contact with "spirits" themselves? There's quite a few that have had that happen randomly, and I doubt it'd just pop in their head and OH MY GOD THERE'S ONE. But it still doesn't mean that there's a God or anything...

And #7...What the hell. Just all of them, these questions are ludicrous. I don't..This is just an odd arrange of questions.

[Zeldarulah]

I don't know, I've gotta say I think 12 is totally the most random. It doesn't even begin to make sense. Like look at them from a relevant standpoint. 1. Relevant but stupid question 2. Fairly irrelevant 3. Random 4. Random 5. Random 6. Random 7. Relevant, but foolish 8. Relevant, but foolish 9. Random, unless he's implying magical sky daddy saved him. 10. Relevant, but not true. 11. Irelevant, not necesarily true. 12. Nonsensical 13. Fairly random

[Xjustin3009X]

I don't quite understand this child. He's a self-proclaimed most popular Christian "know it all" that thinks everyone should answer and bow down to him? Isn't he trying to force religion down people's throats? I'll never understand the overly obsessed fanatics.

[Zeldarulah]

Yeah... I think my next vid will be on how Christianity was formed, and the curse that it put onto the world up till today. Even now genocides going on because of this idiocy in the middle east.

[Xjustin3009X]

That would be an intriguing video. It really hasn't done much to help, maybe a few things here and there but not much else.

I doubt he'd take it seriously anyway. He'd just probably respond back with "I'M A CHRISTIAN THEREFORE GOD CONDEMNS YOU AND LETS ME WIN THIS ARGUMENT!"

[Xjustin3009X]

Couldn't fit this into 1 comment.

One thing I don't get about the whole Christianity stories is the whole "God/Devil" ordeal. If I remember correctly, wasn't the Devil an angel that defied God and was sent to Hell? The thing that's rather odd is that if you notice the stories, the Devil hasn't done anything wrong at all. It seems to be everyone's dieing for God, yet there's nothing about the Devil doing wrong. God sending someone to Hell for disobeying is a wrong message all together.

[Zeldarulah]

Yeah, I've thought about that before. If you pay attention you see that the God character in the Bible kills thousands of people, and even wipes out the entire population of the planet with a flood once, whereas Satan doesn't appear to do anything other than betraying him. And I'm not saying Satan's a good character, I'm not Satanist, I don't even believe in his existance obv, but he honnestly seems less cruel than God.

[Xjustin3009X]

It'd be a tad bit ironic that the "God" everyone's worshiping ends up being the wrong one.

[Zeldarulah]

Haha, true that. He's a pretty tricky guy though, huh.
