  • Religion: "Respect us for not respecting you."

  • @megamarsvin good one !!!!!!!!!!1

  • I respect religious people. Just like I have respect for a mentally ill person. They're all the same to me.

  • Atheisttwit your clearly the twit for disregarding facts and science and as for the ravening fake accounts shit grow up so what people die every day and if people want to mock them then be my guest I would bbt upset if noone mocked me after I die.problem with religion is the cramming it down your throat approach I don't care if you got touched by god report him to the police and then stop believing in something that logically doesn't exist.

  • that low humming is making me need a shit

  • What is with everyone here? Fry is not talking exclusively about religious types. He's talking about how almost everyone expands these two words: including blacks, Muslims, Christians, homosexuals, you name it. Most people in the modern age are guilty of using "I'm very offended" as an argument, and twisting "respect" into an unrecognizable concept.

  • Stephen Fry for Pope.

  • Too bad people still use the "I'm offended" argument. Fucking hate that claim, just as Fry said: it's nothing but a whine. People need to realize that no one is absolutely right in this world and opposing views are just another factor separating the ignorant from the intelligent. Only rationalism has proven time and time again to be correct- and that's what we should be arguing over. Not silly debates involving metaphors and feeling.

  • @sciences8 "that no one is absolutely right" but it is possible or else "rationalism" is pointless 

  • @255ad

    No, rationalism seeks the best solution to an impossible-to-conquer question. How do you solve the debt crisis? Is there a mathematical formula that will answer that question or some other scientific solution? Will we ever know when it is actually solved, or will there be fallout our actions to try and "solve" it?

    We don't know; but we can argue, and through rationalism come to a conclusion that will (hopefully) result in the best outcome. Rationalism is a process more than a finale.

  • @sciences8

    that we can be objectively closer or further from getting right the answer implies that the absolute best possible correct answer does exist it is just ever out of our fallible human hands

  • @255ad

    Exactly my point. Humans are flawed- we're imperfect and therefore our decisions are imperfect. I honestly believe machines could manage society better than humans, given they are capable of logic and given certain parameters (healthy nation, happiness, economic prosperity, etc.). Of course, this would require a global effort...

  • @sciences8 You're probably right but people would never accept this. If logic would dictate unpopular policies there would be riots.

    They reason there are no rational, competent politicians is that the vast majority of people want easy, comforting answers, instead of the bitter pill they may have to swallow for their own good. Just blame the atheist/muslim/liberal/conserv­ative/whoever so you don't have to think. Hell even among atheists this kind of thinking is scarily common.

  • @megamarsvin

    I agree. I'm actually wary of Atheism simply because of their determination in denying that God exists supersedes other matters. Agnosticism is far more rational because its nihilistic viewpoint gives no credit to religion. It simply ignores it, allowing people to focus on far more important troubles like starvation and education. I hope at some point we won't have need for atheism or any religion. We can decide for ourselves what we want to believe in- and keep it to ourselves.

  • @sciences8 Well said :)

  • @sciences8 agnostics are still atheists. gnosticism deals with what you know and theism deals with what you believe. Most atheists are agnostic atheists those who do not KNOW if there is a god and dont BELIEVE in one. People who just claim agnosticism always irritate me. They never want to admit they are an atheist. They don't KNOW whether theres a god (who honestly does). If you don't buy into the god thing you're an atheist nomatter what.

  • @asdfbobbyasdf

    No... you're wrong. Why on Earth would their BE agnostics if all of them were just atheists? They're different irreligions. Completely different in fact. Agnostics, as I said, are nihilistic towards God. Atheists actively OPPOSE the belief in the existence of a God. I'm ignostic- a form of agnosticism (or sub-group, it's sometimes referred to). However, I'm NOT atheist. To me, the only room for debate in regards to God his the definition OF God. Otherwise, I couldn't care less.

  • @sciences8 Atheism is simply a non acceptance of theistic claims. Even agnostics fit that description. If you aren't a theist you're an atheist. You very well could be ignostic, but if you don't accept what theists say you're still an atheist.

  • @asdfbobbyasdf

    "Agnosticism is the view that human reason is incapable of providing sufficient rational grounds to justify the belief that deities either do or do not exist". There are atheistic agnostics, but there are also theist agnostics. I don't accept what theists say but I do speculate that some supreme force exists, which lacks an explicit definition: I will refer to as "God". I am not, however, claiming I understand anything about this force, rather I contemplate its existence.

  • What about the trolls that make Facebook pages after people have died basically mocking them and taunting their relatives about their death?

    Is it fair? Do you give a shit if their offended?

    Stephen I used to respect you but this video made me realise that the fact you have a posh accent, doesn't make you smart at all.

    You're a fucking dunce mate.

  • @RichyBMelodies He means saying "I'm rather offended by that" doesn't mean anything. If that situation happens, which I'm sure it does, posting "I'm rather offended by that" isn't going to help and will actually fuel the trolls. What they should do instead is report the page and the posts to facebook to have them removed. Whining isn't going to fix it; taking action is.

  • @sumgirl720 If you weren't a woman I would lay into you so bad. Listen, he's not talking about facebook he's talking about being offended in general.

    I'm saying, if you say people shouldn't have the right to not to be offended, then people would be able to troll the relatives on dead loved ones legally.

    According to this video Stephen Fry believes people should be able to offend anyone/anyhow/anywhere and that is just a totally retarded viewpoint.

  • @RichyBMelodies I take offense by that.

  • @sumgirl720

    He's sexist. Then again, technically so is everyone else...

  • @RichyBMelodies he's talking about people who take offence to things that weren't intended to hurt them and try to use that as defence for censorship, not genuine verbal attacks that are actually intended to hurt people

  • I think everyone should just respect each others beliefs and smoke a joint..

    World would be a lot better without so much politics. It's incredibly boring nowadays, especially with Christians and Atheists fighting over literally nothing. It solves nothing. Nothing at all. If we could just put our differences aside and work together as a planet we could progress so much, so fast, so wonderfully.

    Why can it only be a fantasy?

  • I find that offensive .. well so fucking what LOL

    Anyone that Believes in any Stupid God has no place in the 21st Century Sorry

    Grow up !! and let us move forward

  • I don't expect many religious people to understand the conversation.

  • @TironaBloodspiller Have you seen Hitchens v. Turek? It can cause severe facepalm injuries when the christians don't understand.

  • Yawn.

  • Isn't he thieving this observation from Dawkins?

  • His opinion slightly diluted when every time he goes on the internet he acts like a 12 year old on Facebook, throws massive tantrums when everybody isn't super nice to him, claims he's leaving and never coming back and then comes back the next day to his sycophantic fans.

  • @kalvaza Hahahah! Too true. He's turning into more and more of a grumpy old git too.

  • @kalvaza He has Bipolar.

  • @kalvaza Argumentum ad hominem. Have anything interesting to say?

  • @Ilicium As in interesting you mean quoting a latin phrase without any sense of irony? In which case no, but please continue with your sycophantic worship of an overrated comedian by replying to every single comment on this Youtube video.

  • @kalvaza I just happened to be watching, you just happened to be wrong.

  • @Ilicium Now I think you've got your replies mixed up. It's understandable when there's over 3,500 comments to reply to. Of course, half of them are yours so at least be careful not to reply to your own comment and call yourself an idiot. I'm sure there's plenty to do that for you.

  • @JaCkMiChEaLs0n did you really clock.my profile and look at my comment history to post this? Hahaha oh man. So what you're saying is you think extremists are stupid, other religious people get lumped in with them and that just sucks for them? You're just reinforcing my point

  • Do atheists really think that all religious people act the same? Seems to be the case whenever I see one of these videos with moronic comments like "religious people are fucking stupid"

    I would surely have thought an "enlightened" breed of "intelligent" people wouldn't stoop to being petty and spouting diatribe like so many of the comments here that sound an awful lot like childish rants.

  • @Bottlecappu well when people believe in completely unfounded magic and fairy tales, and go around spouting ignorance- believing the text of an ancient book written in babelonian israel by people who thought the earth was flat, sea monster were real, and executing nonbelievers- over mountains of scientific evidence to the contrary; continuing to pursue things like censorship, homophobia, and cases of just blatant racism and bigotry-- i think that would classify as fucking stupid

  • @Bottlecappu are you seriously addressing all atheists as the same and then saying that they as a whole think all religious people are the same? I'm an atheist who recognizes that religion helps some people overcome themselves and can inspire to do good. No harm in that. As an atheist i can see all religions equally. That being said religion is the cause of a great deal of suffering as well. Often religion gives a person the right to defy all logic and reason for the sake of something cruel.

  • @Bottlecappu Can't speak for all atheists - not that anyone can, that's after all the point - but the religious mode of thinking, or rather non-thinking, *is* the same, regardless of the person. The difference between the "extremists" and the "moderates" is not that the "moderates" have a "deeper" understanding of religion, the difference is that the extremists took that mode of non-thinking to it's illogical conclusion.

  • @Bottlecappu I don't see the moderates reining in the hateful and violent acts and speech of their coreligionists. The "moderate" christians have been strangely silent.

  • @Ilicium Nothing strange about it. The moderates know as well as the rst of us do that the extremists are CRAZY, and would kill THEM just as quick as anyone else who dares to disagree with them.

  • @GoblinXXX Apparently, only christ was willing to die for christianity.

  • @Ilicium don't like history much, huh?

  • @uranatheisttwit Why, do you have a recent report of a moderate christian dying to save moderate christianity?

  • @Ilicium I have a report of a dumbass who doesn't know history. Want to see it? Just read your boneheaded comments.

  • @uranatheisttwit There's another vote against moderation. I was hoping you actually knew some history, but sadly, you do not. You've got the troll thing down - yay christianity!

  • @Ilicium Ahhh...the "t" word. Invariably, the first one who throws it out is the loser and is desperately trying to save face.

    Study history son and stfu.

  • @uranatheisttwit Yes, you have truly powned me. The shame. Were you planning on writing anything of substance, or just throwing out old memes?

  • @Ilicium Powning you is like doing it to a kindergartner. No glory in it.

    Now go play in the sandbox like a good twit.

  • @uranatheisttwit Ah, now I see... You can't help it. "You didn't watch it!!?? ...Wow, imagine that! A brain-dead fucktard like you not being objective and spewing shit!" You don't say anything important anywhere you spew. Poor thing.

  • @Ilicium Ignore him. He only hounds atheist videos and throws ad hominem attacks while hiding behind his own belligerence.

    He is a living broken record, a true imbecile of the decade. Haha!

  • @Vilemk0 damn punkass....how many sock accounts do you have?

    Still waiting for you to prove your bullshit bullshitter.

  • @uranatheisttwit HAHAHA! Fucking retard still believes I own every account on youtube. Do you really have the mentality of a child?

    Hide your comments so people don't realize what a moron you are.

  • @Vilemk0 Quit being a complete PUSSY and prove your bullshit bullshitter.

    punkass nut.

  • @uranatheisttwit Quit being a broken record. Hahaha.

    You might just learn how to debate and people MIGHT just think you're less of a complete imbecile.

  • @Vilemk0 Ahh...I see ***FOUR*** posts from me to you....

    Twit.

    I GUARANTEE that NONE of them contain proof of your bullshit zeitgeist

    brain-dead lame-ass fucktarded bullshit.

    Are ANY of us surprised.

    No...I'm sure everybody reading this knows you are definitely a world-class PUSSY.

  • @uranatheisttwit Twit says what?

  • @uranatheisttwit Still attacking people and ignoring any hint of logical debate I see? You really can't help yourself just like Illicium said.

    You poor mentally challenged little boy.

  • @Vilemk0 If I'm "mentally challenged" then you must be tied to a chair somewhere in a nut house slobbering all over yourself and shitting your pants because at least I can figure out the christ-myth/zeitgeist bullshit is total bullshit that only morons can fall for.

    moron.

  • So why do we hear it so much in America concerning the rights of Atheists. I shouldn't have to see Christmas decoration, I'm offend if someone wishes me a Merry Christmas, That cross out in the middle of no where offends me, etc.

    Seems we can't have it both ways. So are we to treat these comments as just some folks being whiners? Hmm... Seems we can't as they have groups of lawyers about them to make sure their whining is treated as RIGHTS.

  • Religious people automatically assume respect for THEIR belief structure.

    Religious people are self centred and are not willing to deviate for all they believe is what is written in a book.That in itself shows just how narrow minded this sect is.

    Respect has to be earned whether or not you like it.

    To all religious people.Open your minds to those who have a diff belief structure than yours and then you may start to understand what this worlds needs are.

    Religion is nothing more than a millstone.

  • @naybobdenod dont stereotype all of us please.

  • @AttackTofu OK,I`ll do exactly as you say but please stop trying to ram down our throats ur belief structures.Deal

  • @naybobdenod have i tried to ram my beliefs down your throat? no. 

  • @AttackTofu No you hav`nt yet :) but how long would our conversation go without you feeling the need to share with me your somewhat beleaguered bible scriptures.

    I`m not being sarcastic its just that virtually every person of faith I have chatted to seems to think that its their right to try and convince others to think as they do.

    Being an atheist I find this very offensive as I would never try to convert anyone to my way of thinking.

    I`m not an anti theist,just a realist who requires proof.

  • i'm offended by religious people getting offended by religious criticism

    also i have unshakable faith that my feeling of being offended is the only

    legitimate one. And my holey book of circular logic proves that i'm right.

  • @unamaxify

    Now i am offended by your offence cause my book says my God is the only one and that this is true. So don't you see the flaw in your logic! I will now kill you because you can

    A: Not read.

    B:You are not smart enough to believe the right book.

    C: You cannot see pure logic.

    (zealot mode off)

  • needs more bass

    

  • @neonandhass HAHA

  • "I respect you as a person too much to respect your ridiculous beliefs."

  • Those going on about respecting the belief into Allah and the koran, well, you should probably read that book first before spewing such crap. Read up on the hadith and actual islamic history and mythology. It's going to change your view. When the Jews in Arabia refused to follow Mohammed, who is the perfect human being in islamic mythology, he murdered them. Arabia became "judenrein" under him. That is the only pattern in islam. Kill, maim, destroy.

  • @rifway22 You won the challenge. Saw the title of the video you sent and hit the delete button. I only watch what I choose to watch. And a Muslim recruiting video won't be one of them. Save your pathetic attempts for those that either cannot or will not think for themselves. There is no god. You're born, you live as long as possible and then you're worm food. Nothing more.

  • @naym2011 Help me out on this one. Is there any other kind of fag except a gay one? I have friends who happen to be gay and even they couldn't help me on this one. Please give us the definition of "gay fag".

  • Adam, Eve, Abraham, David, Solomon, Joseph & Moses are fictional.

  • Stephen Fry, Christopher Hitchens, Richard Dawkins and Lawrence Krauss = dream team.

  • @JeremiahCrow Fry, Hitchens, Krauss, yes. Dawkins? He's a lunatic. Just as bad as the people he fights. He only likes picking on the chrissies, but he doesn't have the balls to pick on the muzzies.

  • @Edohiguma

    Search for "richard dawkins islam".

    Prepare to have your mind blown.

  • @Edohiguma Search "Richard Dawkins Muslim" and watch him do work.

  • It's like the Theocrat Republican Party these days saying that Mr. Obama has declared a "war on religion". Well ,they've declared a "war on reality" and it's high time they explained their superstitious notions and to convince us that their sense of morality supercedes that of a secularist.

  • @beanie928 You don't even know what a theocracy is, dumbass yank. Try Iran, that's a theocracy. The GOP isn't any better than Obama and his idiots. GOP and Democrats are all part of the Beltway Mafia. Whoever wins this year, the US is fucked.

  • @Edohiguma I have to agree with you for the most part,but Mr. Obama has done his best with these lousy Repubs whose only job( apparently) is to make him a one-term Pres. and de-fund NPR and Planned Parenthood. My fucking "heros"! If Bible-thumpers like Santorum or Gingrich get in you can toss gay rights, legal abortion,stem cell research, and Evolution into the trash barrel because this is what this crop of pious freaks is gunning for.

  • @Edohiguma PS "yank' should be spelled with a capital"Y",jackass.

  • for me the situation is even more simple, you respect my beliefs (or lack thereof) and i will respect yours. simple as that

  • SO FUCKING WHAT!

  • ...isnt the title wrong? he didnt mention religion once.

    or was this taken out of a full interview and the question put to him was about religion. in that case let us here the answer in the context of a question asked

  • @awhitesoul2012 Ok, I watched your "video". Now tell me why you are against this. Is it because you are a bigot? Because you want all the pretty young girls for yourself? Why? What is it that bothers you so much about it?

  • @rifway22 How many have suffered and died in the name of a nonexistent being? The "faithful" have been murdering for thousands of years in a vain attemp to be the one true religion. And it matters not the religion. All of them do it. And as for murder and rape numbers going up. Of course they have. There is a greater population now so the number will keep going up. But, per capita percentages are going "down" the same way that per capita percentages of believers is dropping.

  • @rifway22 You admit it then? If you didn't believe in god, you would murder and rape? If you think that way then you must have those tendencies too begin with. I believe in NO god and never have. I feel no urge to do violent things. I don't need an invisible friend to make me act right.

  • @BKradley You can't be serious. You actually need an invisible sky god to tell you it's not ok too murder and rape. Maybe you're right. Many a night I have lain in bed thinking up evil and sadistic ways too torture and kill those around me. You're a fool. You should be admitted to a mental facility for your own well being and the safety of others.

  • @hrsqsiest if everyone on this earth believe in god, then they'll be no crime in this world, cuz if they believe there is a god, they will obviously fear the ever lasting chastisement that awaits them in hell (there are no escaping it). but if we are bonded by man made law, crime would still persist. today's rate of murder and rape are higher than ever.

  • @rifway22 Literally: LOL. Are you serious??? Do you not know your history? It's full of wars, hate, death and violence brought about by religion. Crimes against humanity itself have been committed in the name of God. To say there would be no crime if everyone believed in God is ridiculous. Myself, my family, my friends and most of my acquaintances don't believe in God, but none of us are criminals! Quite the opposite.

    Follow who you choose to follow, that's your choice, but don't be naive!

  • @alanv9 so your view is that men would not do any wrong in his life, if he doesnt believe in god? are you 12? blame the people not the religion. men use religion as a pretext to get wealth, land etc. example is the crusade. so who is to blame. religion taught us empathy, not to be greedy, do good to others or you are going to hell. an atheist would say 'what do i care, theres no afterlife, might as well live your life to the fullest' which means selfish, greedy, hate etc. causing rape murder war

  • @rifway22 I'm not blaming religion, I'm merely pointing out that your statement: "if everyone on this earth believe in god, then they'll be no crime in this world" is false.

    I do agree with you, blame the people, not the religion. However, religion is not the answer to criminal intent. People of any faith (or non-faith) can be cruel, sadistic, violent.

    I will live every day of my life to the fullest, because there is no afterlife, but I certainly won't cause rape, murder or war! lol...

  • @alanv9 the preoblem is people dont believe in god, if they do than why did they still commit those crimes, religion can help repress those evil desire, of course you wouldnt rape, murder, steal etc. but doesnt mean everyone is like you. intellect, sexual desires, behaviour are all different form one another. so how do we curb this problem. islam is the answer. the quran has every solution in this world, racism, family, economics, political legal, war, crime, everything. world today is fucked up

  • @rifway22 I agree, the world is fucked up in many places. I respect your belief in Allah, and your choice to follow the Islamic faith and the Quran.

    There might be evil people out there that would benefit from following a faith, perhaps those people could be saved from committing crimes. But for me, in my opinion, it's not the answer. The way forward is through research and scientific advances. I'm sure there's a gene that causes violence, I hope one day we crack it.

    Peace and respect to you.

  • @alanv9 Why the hell would you respect beliefs? Only people are worthy of respect, and foolish beliefs deserve only derision.

  • @jymbo1969 I respect a person's right to their beliefs, and/or their conviction to that belief. Not necessarily the belief itself.

  • @rifway22 The quran is a bullshit book of fairie tales. It has no solutions, since it demands submission to a non-existent god, and his liar for-profit muhammed. There is no god, no matter what you call it. The sooner people accept that simple fact, the better for all of us.

  • @rifway22 The koran is a book on the level of Hitler's "Mein Kampf". To be perfectly honest, the koran makes a horrible toilet paper. It's already full of shit. The only thing the koran stands for is fascism.

  • gay fag

  • @naym2011 I thought he was a straight fag?

  • @naym2011 That was a dig at you, not stephen fry

    You're an idiot

  • Stephen Fry - the person every idiot on the internet that corrects grammar in an argument wishes they were.

  • @zombie3925 Stephen Fry - the person EVERYONE wants to be.

  • @awhitesoul2012 I prefer green apples over red ones, but somehow people around me doesn´t seem to care.

  • If you have to respect peoples religious belief then don't you have to respect the belief of suicide bombers? You don't have to respect religious belief, and it doesn't deserve respect. Its fucking stupid and deserves to be treated as such.

  • So many trololo comments...

  • @53dumey And you think Big Bang Theory is funny. As far as I'm concerned that's the reason I have for thinking your opinion isn't worth anything.

  • @53dumey And it's an absolute pleasure to call you an ignorant cunt. Pray on sweet ignorant twat.. pray on.

  • @53dumey

    You don't deserve the oxygen you're breathing, I hope your mother is disgusted at bringing such an ignorant twat into the world, I hope you were a rape baby, in which case, you should have been aborted.

  • @53dumey Fortunately i don't think Stephen gives a shit about what a bigoted moron like you thinks.

  • @Spiderpope

    Who's bigoted ??

    Sounds like Fry is Bigoted against Religious people !!!

    I can't help it if he's Athiest and Queer !!!

  • @53dumey Bigotry is an act against people, not religions, and I'm pretty sure he didn't say that. He can't help it if religion is fairly stupid and childish.

  • @Ilicium

    Fry is Queer, look it up !

    " "  He can't help it if religion is fairly stupid and childish. " "

    LOL

    But he's mature in his attacks on Religion ???

    I don't know who more stupid, you or Him !!!

  • @53dumey Yes, and you are pro-religious (though I don't know which one) and anti-gay. Two reasons I have no respect for you. See how that works? Basically, you're a troll for your religion. Spewing hatred in just the way Jesus would have wanted it. Plonk.

  • @Ilicium

    Why should I show respect for 2 Atheists of which 1 is Gay ???

    Did you know that there are NO gay animals ????

  • @53dumey lol yes they are, look it up, you are full of shit mate

  • @53dumey so atheists are less than you?

    and yes, animals can exhibit gay behaviour, we are all animals

    you're either 9 or a troll

  • @IAINoodle

    Less in intelligence !

    And NO, not one animal actually has Gay Sex except for Fucked Up Humans !!!

  • @53dumey aww i wouldnt go so far as to call you fucked up

  • @53dumey No offense, but a massive amount of animals engage in homosexual relations, well over 1,000 species. And it's not because they can't tell the difference, many animals have been shown to have a preference for same sex relationships.

    Penguins, Sheep, and several different species of monkeys just to name a few.

  • @89Dustdevil

    They have GAY SEX ??????

  • @53dumey actually homosexual activity is commonplace among animals you ignorant brainwashed fait-head.

    talking rubbish and getting away with it ... this is the faith-head tactic

  • @dexterquotidian

    Name some that actually have GAY SEX !!!

  • @53dumey bonobos apes

  • @53dumey Bison, Brown, Bear Brown, Rat,Caribou, Cat (domestic), Cattle (domestic) Cheetah,Chimpanzee,Common Dolphin, Common Marmoset, Dog, Elephant, Fox,Giraffe,Goat,Horse (domestic),Koala,Lion,Orca,Rac­coon to name some mammals!

  • @53dumey Never been on a farm, have you? Male animals mount each other all the time. Judging from your trolling, I'm thinking you should come out of the closet and just accept your attraction to others of your sex.

  • @53dumey Never been on a farm, have you? Male animals mount each other all the time. I think maybe that's why you are spewing so much hatred. You just need to come out of the closet.

  • @Ilicium Out of the closet, or the barn?

  • @GoblinXXX :)

  • Gotta love Stephen Fry! You cant beat his intellect!

  • I can respect religious people, but I have no respect for religion

  • @achickensandwich i can't respect people who are stupid on purpose.

  • @325982668 The point is it's more complicated than that. Was everyone who died in the Jonestown massacre an idiot? Of course not. No doubt some were, but most were either delusional or brainwashed or held captive - the massacre was idiotic, not the people who partook in it.

  • @achickensandwich I just refuse to believe that people are so easy to manipulate and take advantage of. I have too much hope for the human species to accord respect to the people who participate in misery-mongering.

  • @325982668 There are people who are easy to manipulate - children. Children who grow into deluded adults. When your mother tells you that you will experience unimaginable agony for the rest of eternity unless you believe nonsense, it tends to happen. It's built into our instincts to conform in that way. It just isn't correct to call the person a moron.

  • @achickensandwich i'm kind of a cynic, and an asshole, so i hold people for the most part, responsible for doing their own thinking after they reach the expected age of reason. I just don't think life on this planet has enough time to slowly coddle our population towards critical thinking, We're approaching a dangerous future over which we have little control at this point, and we can't even get the average person to accept what kind of animal they are.

  • @325982668 You're absolutely right for the most part, but, at risk of sounding like Don Corleone, I just personally feel we don't need to disrespect to firmly educate. My final point: a smart person can learn reasoning, but an idiot will be an idiot for the foreseeable future. So what do you gain from lecturing an idiot? Whether someone is smart or stupid is entirely your own perspective.

  • @achickensandwich i think there are probably some fairly objective, demonstrable, reasoned criteria for defining what an idiot is, though I won't bother going into them here, at the risk of sounding like a smug intellectual asshole, i'd probably define 60+% of the population that way.

  • @achickensandwich I have no respect for people who think everything came by accident.

  • @warriorprince1010 Then you represent everything that is wrong with people

  • leaving people alone with their religious beliefs isnt enough for them , they want your young

  • Why can't we all just be friends? You're not going to convince anyone over the internet anyway.

  • I had an imaginary friend once, when I was 5 years old. But something strange happened!!!, I grew the fuck up.

  • Fuck all of you! I mean it!

    Don't say it unless you mean it luv

  • Well this applies to both the religious and atheist. Atheist says: I'm offended by that because I don't believe in god. Theist says: I'm offended because I believe in god.

    Honestly everyone is a bunch of cry babies. Learn to let things go, as long as you are not being forced to do something against your will then just shut it. There has been and never will be a good reason to harbor such hate over world views and beliefs.

  • Cunts....Now iv to find 53dumey's comment.

  • So atheism is the new religion? Everyone's too busy clamouring to praise and play sycophant to the "gods" Fry and Dawkins that they forget how mindlessly they are following doctrine without any personal input other than believing they must act snide and hate Christians.

    Do we really have so much spare time as to waste it blasting others' belief systems in the hope of furthering our own? I thought atheism tried to combat being told "what to do" but all I see are anti-Christians in their droves!

  • @ChainsawGutsFuck

    I see you, like so many with their panties in a bunch about people who reject religion, don't have the faintest idea about what atheism is but instead try to shoe horn it into a religious category because that's what you know.
