do u see christians telling u ur an idiot because u refuse to beleive.. are we telling u that nobody on this earth can possibly love you because who knows maybe sumone dropped u as a kid... stop picking on christians.. all ur proving is that ur bitter
I do believe in angels. Well, the reason is - very simple - I wanna believe in the good becuse I'm scared of ''the dark''. That's how it is, huh? Cause if you don't believe in every good things, you will - in the end - be very sad. And maybe you'll kill yourself. So it's important to believe in the good. You don't have to be like a hippie, but believe in the good. When you do, your life will be better. If you think it's better, then it is better! Try! :)
And to Raggedy, you are right. I can not deny the conviction of the religous. And if conviction is proof of a god, then the atrocities of 9/11 must prove that your religion is wrong, for the conviction of the committers of this attack clearly show a strong conviction of faith. So that is your silly reasoning, cut to pieces and laying at your feet. There are NO GODS, and the world will be a much better place without that kind of conviction.
I wish I could give you 10 thumbs up for that comment. People like raggedy are what is wrong with this world. I wanted to leave a comment against what he drivelled but I think you said it quite elequently!
Mattie690, why, when you don't even know me would you make a comment that people like me are what is wrong with this world? Wanting to give 4me2cc 10 thumbs up can only mean what I said made sense and you can't explain your own conviction of the sin in your life.
"Why do you conclude that I lead a life of sin?? I do not."
Because unless you are Christ Himself, I can guarantee you live a life of sin.
To even compare someones convictions to a hateful act and to think you have an argument can only be explained one of two ways. Either you're ignorant to what Biblical conviction is, or you're a bigot. I'll just say your ignorant to what Biblical conviction is.
"Because unless you are Christ Himself, I can guarantee you live a life of sin"
So this is where you start from?? They tell u u're worthless and you agree...I always though religions for the weak. Let me guess u got into religion one of two ways...u were born into it or you had something nasty happen in your life and you "found" it??
I was NOT born a sinner and I do not go around hurting people or taking what is not mine. That is a sinless life - the other crap you can keep!
Mattie, who are the "they" that told me I was worthless? You said you always thought religion was for the weak, so what makes you so strong? You're still a sinner who's sins will need forgiveness regardless of how strong you think you are.
"Let me guess u got into religion one of two ways...u were..."
Nope, I wasn't born into it, nothing nasty has happen in my life and I found nothing. Again, you have proven your ignorance and bigotry towards Christianity. And no that is not a sinless life.
4me2cclearly, if you think biblical conviction is flying a airplane into a building and killing thousands, you are highly mistaken. Any person with a brain would look at 911 as a hateful act brought on by brainwashing. Our two definitions of what conviction is, are obviously completely different. You can pretend you made sense but in reality you have proven your ignorance and denial of biblical conviction.
to them "biblical conviction" was flying a plane into a building. Two side of the same coin. If your religion was under threat in the future you may take the same steps...history tends to repeat itself. But dont worry too much because all gods die in the end. History, again, shows us that!
That is why I am atheist. I read the bible one to many times. WSN, try to read a science book. You know, science, right. But why would you do that when you have the bible. The truble with religion, is that once you think you have all the answers, you stop looking, and questioning. Get a grip.
Actually it's that hardest thing that you will ever do, to be a Atheist is the easy way. You don't even no what you're talking about. To smart to be smart. Try reading the bible first.
Try it...the not believing in gad is VERY easy. The starting to open you eyes and realise what a wonderful and complex universe we live in is very very difficult and takes a lot of research to understand even the fundamentals. Again....try it...you will be suprised!!!
Interesting video, but I think in your mind you are trying to convince yourself this is what true believers experience. The reality is we are all going to die, it would be foolish to live such a disciplined life (like the Christian life) to not actually believe what Christians believe. The truth is F.O.D. there is evidence of God and the most convincing is conviction, something even an atheist can not deny...
The real reality behind your video is you fear death and find comfort in trying to convince yourself God is not real. If God is real and the conviction you feel, for the wrong that you do in your life, there just might be consequences for them in the next. Believers are not the ones in denial because how can anyone deny their convictions. It is the atheist that finds comfort in their denial of a Holy God...
wrong, what we believe is irrelevant.. what it is,is... do you think Earth was flat 'cos people believe it and then suddently changed? "If we believe....It is!" is just nonsense, no offence.
maybe yes, maybe not...who knows.. but I don't think so... the fact is that my desires or wills or beliefs are important to me but irrelevant and meaningles in a global scale, things, reality will not change 'cos I want it different... is the way it is... is not a matter of if "someday I find out different", that means nothing...
You do make a point about things on a "global scale" however I wasnt speaking about that...and thats great if you believe everything has a plan, an absolute outcome...however I believe your incharge of your path in life...like it being a map and you decide which route to take! I believe you just wanna argue with me and thats fine I love a debate and if its plausible I will consider it,but, your a realist and the fact that your not open minded will lead to a boring life!!!
now you are saying something more than the other responses. The fact that you believe that there is a plan doesn't mean that there is a plan, it's a self satisfactory thought of course but it's just that 'cos you have no way to prove it one way or the other, I simply say I don't believe it. No I don't wanna argue, I just wanna theists raise questions by themselves about what they believe and why instead of just believing. I'm open minded and I'm not bored, thanks.
AMEN brother. I'm getting my undergraduate degree in Religion as we speak and you're right on in getting the point across. Now if only these fools had an education in the history of religion, maybe they wouldn't be so easily brainwashed. Sad world out there...
Your comments on immortality are brilliant. Religion itself is a sort of immortality project... that's why I'm a fan of Berger, Campbell, Weber.. etc.

JESUS IS THE MOST VALID REASON TO EVERYTHING IN THIS WORLD......If you want to go with satan...have a nice trip..... you best bring plenty of air conditioners, fans, water.....REMORSE
You are wrong about your claim, Atheists don't worship satan because we don't believe that Satan exist, how can we worship something we don't believe in? the same way Atheists don't believe in angels, demons, fairys, miracles or any supernatural being etcetera. also, big claims requiere big evidence. you claim that you know how the universe was created and why we are here, we Atheists only say that we don't believe it; I say "I don't know" instead of God did it. you are confused about Atheism.
Good video. I kept thinking about The Godfather while you were talking. That's exactly what religion does, it "makes them an offer they can't refuse." I came here to see EctoBuzz's repartee with "nutjob religious guy/girl" there. Go pray4somesense...!
What if everyone is God experiencing a different possibility? Maybe we are learning everything we can through this virtual scenario that we are running.
1/2 Loved the way you made your point and particularly your painting analogy conclusion! Yep death frightens many people, especially those who WANT to believe in god/religion. But death is only a natural process in the cycles of life, and we ought to recognize and accept that fact with serenity, at least try to... without feeding ourselves with made-up delusions!
If you don't want to believe in God then that is your problem, you obviously don't understand that there is a lot of people who miss their loved ones and expects to see them again and they will. You obviously wasn't too well loved by your family but that is your problem. You people need to leave us christians and other God-believing people alone and we will gladly leave you alone.
We understand people missed their loved ones. Atheists do too. We even understand you expect to see them again, we just cannot fathom why. Who the fuck are you to make assertions about how loved he was by his family? Call yourself a christian. And im afraid to say that you do not leave us alone, your ridiculous fantasy is engrained deeply into our society. But have faith, numbers of christians drops every year, number of atheists rises.
No, actually the numbers has stayed very low, only around 11%. If you don't want to believe in God, that is your problem, but quit trying to remove God from our culture, the government shouldn't force religion, no, but quit trying to get nativity scenes and religious figures removed from our front lawns as well as religious bumper stickers removed from our cars, shutting churches down, going around and telling people there is no God as well as trying to keeping us from talking about God.
"No, actually the numbers has stayed very low, only around 11%."
That might be what they tell you in church, but its not supported by census data. Atheism will spread across america eventually, it only takes one person to wake up, then everyone starts to stir.
I did not hear of these polls in churches, they were done by real polling centers and I saw them on on channels like CNN, ABC and so on. Atheism is never going to spread across America, you people have been trying to convert this entire country ever since it was started and you have failed. You are going above and beyond to try to remove God from this country, not in the government but in the entire country and doing the exact things that you accuse christians of doing.
Oh and, pray4somesense, I forgot you live in England, so you defintely have no idea of the religious freedoms in this country and what goes on and like I said, the atheists have been trying to convert this entire country for ages now only to be met with failure as people can see them for the looney, hateful, radicals they are(like the guy who made this video). I am also through with arguing with you nuts, I only came on here to tell you people to leave us alone, so do it and goodbye.
@bjoh249: 1- I'm not the author of this video, "Friendofdarwin" is and his point is indubitably valid and anchored in rationality, I just added a comment. 2- Here I'll add all that Pray4somesense said to you in response. 3- Since I don't believe as you do, I'm NOT the one with the problem... obviously YOU ARE the one willingly allowing yourself to be deceived by delusions. P.S. Shouldn't you be on your knees praying your imaginary lord instead of proffering absurdities?
God being imaginery is OPINION, not proven fact. I just came on here to ask the atheists of the world to please us majority alone and we will leave youu alone, murderer.
NO! In fact you simply told me to shut up in a facetious/fancy way and now you're accusing me of being a MURDERER... wow! How more ludicrous can you get?
If you're to insult me at least have the decency to do it in my native language which is French...
Et tu pourras ensuite te les foutre au cul tes croyances archaïques à la con, pauvre taré! Vas plutôt faire soigner ta névrose obsessionnelle, connard!
2/2 After being Christian for decades I've made up my mind about faith, god, eternal life, etc. and I now consider such as being totally absurd. Nowadays I'm also inclined to consider death as being what I call the universal justice: No matter whom you were or what you did while living, all will end up dead... no matter how pious/devoted or malevolent! There's no denial possible that all that lives eventually dies and in that factual occurrence we are all absolutely equal.
'ZACTLY, EctoBuzz! Richard Dawkins advises us to treasure this precious life, because it's the only one we'll have and we should appreciate every moment. As RD said, "The kingdom has come, and this is all there is. So, make the most of it."
atheists make up roughly 10% of american population yet only make up .1% of prison population
Using the morals arguement does not work when talking about your murdering christian country Compare your morally bankrupt christian countrys crime stats with secular or "heathen" countrys like japan scandanavian countrys
No, you cannot prove there is no God, you need to show is there is no God, otherwise it can still be theorized. If you don't want to believe in God then that's your problem, but leave us alone.
"No, you cannot prove there is no God, you need to show is there is no God, otherwise it can still be theorized."
Anything can be theorized. The planet is flat. The moon is made of cheese. Fairys live at the bottom of my garden. That does not make it fact, and certainly does not give you good reason to believe such nonsense. We cannot disprove the existence of god because he only exists in your mind. And as for leaving you alone, we didnt ask you to watch this video.
And your assertion that there is no God is theory as well, not proven fact. You people only make up around 11% of this country, so leave us alone and we will leave you alone.
Christmas can be celebrated anyway people wanto to. Are yo now saying that we shouldn't be allowed to be religious during Christmas. Stem cell research is supported by a large population of christians as well, including me. Quit going around and trying to convert people to atheism.
Jesus Christ, the Bible and the Holy Land is my proof. I know you are going to try to disprove that, so whatever, it's nothing I haven't heard before. You people try to go around converting us just as much as we do, only problem is that we make up around 90% of the population. LEAVE US ALONE!!
Actually God-believers also make up most of the world, he is just worshipped and believed differently by many people in the world, like Jews, Muslims, Hindu, etc.
Sorry, no, but religions believe in our God but worships him in a different. He is everybody's God, even your's even though you don't believe in him. I am through arguing with you, 6, thank God you live in New Zealand.
Some dude calling himself god ,a collection of books written by many people hundreds of years later and a desert with some old towns is not proof it is speculation and wishfull thinking
Whatever, these people who wrote the Bible were prophets and disciples who was there and many of them walked alongside Jesus and witnessed firsthand his miracles. They didn't write this book for fictional entertainment like a mystery or romance book, there was reasons. But as I said I am through arguing with you, you are just some little kid who's parents are not monitering his online activities enough, so goodbye and God bless.
I thinkyou need to really seek him out to make sure he is not there and if not so be it but if God is as strong and jealous as the Bible says he is I would really watch what you post about himyou might find yourself with a hard life and bad luck that never ends and wonder if you should blame it on the troll under the bed. because that troll is about as real as your beliefs
This post explains why tyrannies last so long. Whether they're tyrannies with human rulers or tyrannies with invisible immortal rulers, they all rely on being too cowed to express dissent or try to change.
OK WELL MY OPINION ISyou must of at one time seeked God to feel he is not realI hate religion all Bibles are differntBut lets say the Bibleis real and God is real I would rathertake achance in believing and go to heaven then hearhis name and know the bible and ignore itand go to ouropinions evenyours is just a therory christiansgo onfaith maybethrough thier faith in believing in god he showed he was real. .
No. Faith that something exists will never actually make it exist. And if the only reason you believe in God is just incase he does exist, dont you think he might see through that little ploy, being an all powerful all seeing deity and all, and let you burn with the rest of us. You either ACTUALLY believe he exists, or you dont. There is no middle ground.
thats your country not mine Your murdering country
My country is virtually a pacifist country with no death penalty A secular country were atheists make up the second largest group after christians 10 years ago the third largest 20 years ago the 4th largest
God bless athiests! We need more of them for this world to be sensible. Never mind the after life. I'm so sick of sanctimonious crap spewing christians in my neck of the woods. They wouldn't know jesus if he fell a tree on their head.
Beyond any attempt to speak to, or change, the child-like fundamentalist brain-set, in the larger issue of "atheism" vs. "spirituality," one has to inquire into the real nature of perception, time, and the nature of the assumed boundary between "objective" and "subjective." In this realm pat metaphors are too primitive
Having only seen this video your metaphors work okay as applied to the major desert-based religions(jud/chris/islam). As you mainly focus on their mythology. Your reasons for belief are rather pat and un-compelling. I think you are aiming at the fundamentalist brain-set here; which is a fixated one. If you haven't, read "Why We Believe What We Believe: Uncovering Our Biological Need for Meaning, Spirituality, and Truth" by A. Newberg MD, to widen/deepen your argument.
imagine something: the bible say "who ever jump from a bridge with a bucket on his head saying woopidoo will inmediately go to Heaven".. that will be the truth? would you do it?
"the bible say, the bible don't say"... that your point? how can anyone debate with you then? if it's in the bible it true, if not it isn't... brilliant!
What is your problem? I don't take notice of the bible except for bits that are genuinely WISE as with any book I read. Relax and read things more carefully in the context they are written.
but, the reply you did it sounds like that... I mean "the bible didn't say I have a trol under my bed"... well, It sounds quite, I don't know how to say it but it sounds quite "this is true this is false, I'm write you're wrong" to me. excuse if I didn't get it in its context, english is not my mother tongue but i t stills sound like that to me... sorry if I don't get it exactly
Well it's amazing what people will believe...atheist and christian alike. We all got to look at this tendancy. But it's ugly out there and atheists are so irrational.
egh I hate when religious bastards do that to their videos. It just goes to show that they don't allow any opposition and are probably afraid to hear a logical and factual argument.
we only live to be 80-90 years old, sometimes even less, now that is nothing, and no matter what kind of a legacy u leave after urself or no matter how many planets we colonize it still matters little, since we are all practically walking corpses with the clock above our heads clicking and the arrow going counterclockwise from 11:59 to 12:00, religion might have come out of thin air, but it is still better to have it around
A message to all atheist out there, PLEASE stop trying to take faith away from ppl, if u dont believe in God, that is your call, I dont want nor do I want other ppl to convert u, deep inside my heart although I dont want to admit it I give credit to atheists, since they truly have balls and they seem to make peace with their lives(meaningfull as they say)and death, I hope to God u guys are wrong, because without the afterlife, life IS meaningless
, life is short, even if religion is a lie, which I believe is not it is still better to have it around, it brings brief and sometimes very long prospects of something after death
as much as I believe in God, even on my death bed when I expect to meet Him in a few moments turns out to be a LIE, I would NOT want to know that, I would want to fall asleep and never realize that, so that I would not start crying and sobbing uncontrolably that I will soon cease to exist FOREVER and I that I cant do nothing about it
Yes u give a life to ur child but u also give DEATH to ur child, now death is stronger than life, so why would u ever even give birth? now, naturally we are all opitmists, we expect quick wars and easy victories, the gods are always on our side, we will live till we 90 or even 100(we hope we do), we will become famous and leave a legacy after we die.
one of the reasons ppl still have babies today is because they WANT yes the WANT and sometimes they DO believe that their children will eventually join them in heaven. If u r an antheist and u love life and other ppl, why would give a life to ur child who u will love so much and who will eventually die?
Wow, someone needs to get a life! Go out to a pub and have a beer! Go out and meet a girl! You're no better than those "hypocrit-christians" who chase people down in parking lots outside of wal-mart, stuff a pamphlet in their hand and scream in their face "GO TO CHURCH OR YOU'RE GOING TO HELL!"
Stop pushing your "beliefs".. or lack thereof.. on others and do something productive with your time!
Wow. Really, really awesome video. Seriously...this is THE video I would choose out of all the atheist vids on YT to show my xtian friends. Maybe someday I will...
Well let's see. You've humbled yourself before the creator 0 times. You've asked him to reveal himself to you 0 times. You've thought that God might actually exist 0 times. Wow. With a score of zero, no wonder you don't believe ... oh wait. You do believe he exits. I forgot. You just don't want him to because it interferes with your desire not to be accountable to him. Sorry. My bad, as they say.
Not only do I believe that the 'feel good and you will never die' aspect keeps people bound - but also the fear factor of eternal punishment makes them adhere to it and forces them to avoid questioning it.
how do you know?... what kind of hope? hope about mankind solving the differences etc? hope about what? (maybe no hope about afterlife but lost of hopes while we still alive)or better, define "hope" and say why atheists doesn't have hope
Yes, belief in God may be irrational but it offers something to an individual that atheism doesn't and that word is " hope ". So let me live in my delusion and I will continue to hope in the existence of the unseen. How did you know about that troll under my bed, anyway?
You had me at the troll, I was going to say his name is Allah, and he creeps out to remind me of that hell, but he really is just a troll, isn't he. Funny though, I still believe in God, just not any pretty stuff, just God a beginning a force, the designer of the base elements, and I admit, I hope we evolve enough to one day find out what that is, but it won't be me, I know that.
"just a" is a fantastic reduction of any given idea,its just a story its just a tree its just a youtube video from just a person love just a person peace
great vid.... but when people say "the reason is because..." i want to slap them around with a trout!!! either say "the reason is..." or "because", but avoid saying both!
Your video is perfect and exactly what the human mind should come up with. However, God is far greater than that. His reasoning goes far beyond what you are saying. Man will never be able to figure out God. Hence, the term faith. I pray for you, brother. I pray that God will reveal the truth to you as you have been so blinded. I don't blame you at all for your thoughts, but it doesn't make it any less true.
The difference is that one person didn't just come and tell me that this is true. This comes from something that has stood the test of time. You make it sound like this is a new argument. People have been saying this crap for millenia.
Things like that only stand the test of time because of ignorance. And ignorance still abounds. Which is why Mr. Bush was elected for a second term. Scientology is ever growing, and was invented by a sci-fi writer. Is it real? Pretty sure its a load of bull, but bet you a thousand years from now it will be another big contender, unless we can dig our way out of ignorance that is.
Interesting argument. But why doi so many people believe in hell? That's pretty unpleasant, and ugly. Much uglier than a troll, but a lot of people believe in it.
It's mandatory to believe in hell after you believe in heaven. If there wouldn't be a hell, where would the punishement for the bad people be? Final death? That's too easy for the rapists, murderers. Of course hell is too harsh but it is not nothing.
Oh on a side note i've just ordered The God Delusion from amazon because of your book recommendation video, thanks in advance of me reading it as i'm sure i will.
Completely agree. The way I see it, if I pass on my genes, a little bit of me will live for a very long time after I am dead. So I won't be completely gone, my genes will be in another body (well, half anyway).
The big 3 all time greatest, most brilliant, SECULAR (totally NON-religious) intellectual minds the world has ever known, and possibly ever will: Aristotle, Plato and Socrates, concluded by way of way-deep, logical thinking and critical observation that GOD exists and directs the universe.
From a very practical, philosophical and scientific standpoint, it is extremely logical to believe in the existence of an intelligent Creator. Emotional or pride issues connected to that is another story.

Nope, I wasn't born into it, nothing nasty has happen in my life and I found nothing. Again, you have proven your ignorance and bigotry towards Christianity. And no that is not a sinless life.

cederbaby 3 years ago
maybe yes, maybe not...who knows.. but I don't think so... the fact is that my desires or wills or beliefs are important to me but irrelevant and meaningles in a global scale, things, reality will not change 'cos I want it different... is the way it is... is not a matter of if "someday I find out different", that means nothing...
Athrek 3 years ago
You do make a point about things on a "global scale" however I wasnt speaking about that...and thats great if you believe everything has a plan, an absolute outcome...however I believe your incharge of your path in life...like it being a map and you decide which route to take! I believe you just wanna argue with me and thats fine I love a debate and if its plausible I will consider it,but, your a realist and the fact that your not open minded will lead to a boring life!!!
cederbaby 3 years ago
now you are saying something more than the other responses. The fact that you believe that there is a plan doesn't mean that there is a plan, it's a self satisfactory thought of course but it's just that 'cos you have no way to prove it one way or the other, I simply say I don't believe it. No I don't wanna argue, I just wanna theists raise questions by themselves about what they believe and why instead of just believing. I'm open minded and I'm not bored, thanks.

So, your argument is that there is no God because it's illogical to you...or because people want to believe in God?
It's sad to see someone who disbelieves in God but cannot make any better arguments than these.
I see from your videos that you have faith in Science.
Science has nothing to say about the spiritual. Therefore, your arguments come from your own personal prejudice.

If you don't want to believe in God then that is your problem, you obviously don't understand that there is a lot of people who miss their loved ones and expects to see them again and they will.

No, actually the numbers has stayed very low, only around 11%. If you don't want to believe in God, that is your problem, but quit trying to remove God from our culture, the government shouldn't force religion, no, but quit trying to get nativity scenes and religious figures removed from our front lawns as well as religious bumper stickers removed from our cars, shutting churches down, going around and telling people there is no God as well as trying to keeping us from talking about God.

"No, actually the numbers has stayed very low, only around 11%."
That might be what they tell you in church, but its not supported by census data. Atheism will spread across america eventually, it only takes one person to wake up, then everyone starts to stir.

I did not hear of these polls in churches, they were done by real polling centers and I saw them on on channels like CNN, ABC and so on. Atheism is never going to spread across America, you people have been trying to convert this entire country ever since it was started and you have failed. You are going above and beyond to try to remove God from this country, not in the government but in the entire country and doing the exact things that you accuse christians of doing.

2/2 After being Christian for decades I've made up my mind about faith, god, eternal life, etc. and I now consider such as being totally absurd.

There's no denial possible that all that lives eventually dies and in that factual occurrence we are all absolutely equal.

No. Faith that something exists will never actually make it exist. And if the only reason you believe in God is just incase he does exist, dont you think he might see through that little ploy, being an all powerful all seeing deity and all, and let you burn with the rest of us. You either ACTUALLY believe he exists, or you dont. There is no middle ground.

Beyond any attempt to speak to, or change, the child-like fundamentalist brain-set, in the larger issue of "atheism" vs. "spirituality," one has to inquire into the real nature of perception, time, and the nature of the assumed boundary between "objective" and "subjective." In this realm pat metaphors are too primitive
dionisio2007 4 years ago
Having only seen this video your metaphors work okay as applied to the major desert-based religions(jud/chris/islam). As you mainly focus on their mythology. Your reasons for belief are rather pat and un-compelling. I think you are aiming at the fundamentalist brain-set here; which is a fixated one. If you haven't, read "Why We Believe What We Believe: Uncovering Our Biological Need for Meaning, Spirituality, and Truth" by A. Newberg MD, to widen/deepen your argument.

A message to all atheist out there, PLEASE stop trying to take faith away from ppl, if u dont believe in God, that is your call, I dont want nor do I want other ppl to convert u, deep inside my heart although I dont want to admit it I give credit to atheists, since they truly have balls and they seem to make peace with their lives(meaningfull as they say)and death, I hope to God u guys are wrong, because without the afterlife, life IS meaningless

Yes u give a life to ur child but u also give DEATH to ur child, now death is stronger than life, so why would u ever even give birth? now, naturally we are all opitmists, we expect quick wars and easy victories, the gods are always on our side, we will live till we 90 or even 100(we hope we do), we will become famous and leave a legacy after we die.

Extremely well made points, shame they still won't listen. Keep up the good work and may the troll bless you ;)

Completely agree. The way I see it, if I pass on my genes, a little bit of me will live for a very long time after I am dead. So I won't be completely gone, my genes will be in another body (well, half anyway).
