[Chpt. 28] Face Facts, Atheists Are Hated

[DodoPandemic]

"Respect should be earned, not freely given." George Carlin. Exactly how I feel, I'll give religious people the same courtesy I give everyone else, I will not give you respect for believing something without evidence, how is that worthy of respect?

[xXPikachu95Xx]

That is exactly how I feel!

[fredyzori]

yea steve go fuck thyself!

[Kenneth1238]

Holy shit that line "... its like telling a black person to respect the Klu Klux Klan" was just too perfect in everyway XD

[bismarket]

To me, He's the idiot! Religion will never respect us & regardless of whether it does or not, theres far too much wrong with religions anyway to EVER get respect from this "Evil little thing";-)

good points as always , your videos are a continued source of interest.

[dontbugit]

You earned a subscriber!

[sabbatha1]

Wow, If he was the "Christan" he claims do be, shouldn't he have said something like "We should pray for them."?

Not call us idiots.

I'll be an idiot, I can accept that. At least I'm not fucking delusional.

Religion is a mental illness.

[Kida001]

I just got my scarlet A and wear it proudly.

I'm waiting on your new Tebow rant. Now they're calling him god's quarterback?

[Oblivionic]

Keep up the awesome vids.

[happyraver1958]

"Home of the free, land of the brave" I've noticed some serious exceptions to that: You have freedom of speech, unless you're an atheist, you have freedom of religion, unless you're an atheist. What ever happened to those constitutional freedoms? I guess religions see right past the law and start hating people for not worshiping their sky daddy. I am offensive towards religions openly, they don't have a problem offending my disbelief, why should I?

[MultiTrackyBoyz]

Who cares. He is a floating cloud wizard that worships at a sky temples or some shit.

[gr8z0mbiejesus]

OH MY FUCKING GOD!!!! i used that KKK arguement yesterday, the black coworker i was talkin to looked like he wanted to kill me for a few seconds, then thought for a moment and said "alright; thats a good point", very good arguement, but a little inflammatory (but im at a complete loss for another way to be as effective, and less offensive)

[rhiannonbhartwell]

@eiceblue the misconception that they worship buddha as god? Yeah I know about that. My mom is Buddhist.

[ThePurpleLoveboat]

shut the fuck up who cares?

[TymesRhymes]

@ThePurpleLoveboat If you don't, why did you click the video?

[ThePurpleLoveboat]

@TymesRhymes i clicked but then i left

[C4ExplosiveTalk]

@ThePurpleLoveboat You probably don't understand the hate and violence the average atheist takes in America.

[ThePurpleLoveboat]

@C4ExplosiveTalk ok sorry. this propably could be.

[supersonicshadowfan]

One of my supposed friends was looking through my iPod and saw that I was a Atheist with some videos in my iPod and Pictures, and he told everybody and I guess I'm hated by a lot of people, good thing there are Atheist in my school and my teacher is one too.

[supersonicshadowfan]

I never told anyone I was a Atheist but one of my supposed friends looked trought m

[UnknownUserName4267]

@TruthComments Fuck off you stupid cunt.

[MultiGoldenMind]

shut the fuck up you angry retard

[NameYouCantHate]

@MultiGoldenMind Aw somebody mad?

[bowlsallbroken]

We are hated, it's an unfortunate but true fact.

They shouldn't even be necessary, but I appreciate your videos that show that many, many respected people are atheists and that we aren't monsters.

In order to fight effectively for acceptance maybe we need to become louder:

"We're here, we don't believe, and our numbers are growing every damned day!"

[TruthComments]

fact is,atheists are worthless.

[TheMarkNessMonster]

@TruthComments Fact is, you need proof to back that claim up.

[bowlsallbroken]

@TruthComments

Fact is, you're an ignoramus.

[AkGhostCommando2338]

GOD IS REAL GOD IS REAL GOD IS REAL GOD IS REAL lol,

[Rationalific]

As FDR said, "I welcome their hatred." And we will destroy them in time. And unlike what they have done to us throughout all of history, we will destroy them without rivers of blood and burnt flesh.

[137P0359997]

I respect you. Great video!

[Bensoncore97]

A person that doesn't believe that a snake talked. Gee, what an idiot...

[dummy1616]

@indignant99.... deal I promise not to type drunk ever again... oh and i also put wind instead of winded.. I'll be sure to suck start my 9 mil at the first opportunity

[trashcanmurders]

I am in love with you. I get so excited whenever I see a new video from you.

[skrawnyone]

i live in Los Angeles and honestly most of my friends dont give a shit if im an atheist or not. i guess it really depends on the demographic area that you live in. where are u from?

[lolroflhehe]

In Sweden we barely even mention religion :P

[theignoredgender]

I love how she defines an atheist as someone who doesn't QUITE believe in god. That would be an agnostic.

[LowerKace]

Your videos are great

[pimpsonparade]

Caps rage, engage: STEVE HARVEY. THERE YOU GO! ANOTHER USELESS, TALENTLESS JACKASS TALKING HEAD WHO EXPECTS THAT HE WILL BE TAKEN SERIOUSLY BECAUSE HE HOSTS SOME OBNOXIOUS GAME SHOW AND HAD SOME SHITTY SITCOM THAT FAR OVERSTAYED IT'S WELCOME. JUST SHUT THE FUCK UP, MAN.

[1Lanavis1]

The lack of self-awareness that many (not all fortunately) theists have always annoys me without fail. How can it be stupid to not believe in something when there is zero evidence to do so when it is smart to believe in something when it has zero proof of its existence. Theists, do you ever learn?

[rhiannonbhartwell]

@SerenityCalamity quite true. Though I have had the misfortune to meet some atheists who, despite friendly conversations on the downfall of the abrahamic groups, as soon as they find out I'm a theist, they shut down and shun me. Like I'm the atheist and THEY'RE the theists. Sad really, if we could all ignore prejudice, the world would be a much better place.

[viicISrotcib]

But hey, atheists do know how to fight, so if they come after us they better bring the big guns.

[TheMarkNessMonster]

@viicISrotcib I'm sorry, what sense are you trying to make?

[viicISrotcib]

@TheMarkNessMonster something stupid to make someone chuckle.

[TheMarkNessMonster]

@viicISrotcib Alright, I'll buy that.

[socialistshawn]

Well said!!!

[borisbmx]

drink caapi tea and meet your maker!

[ThePariahLivesOn]

The law is not on your side then break it, if they spew bigotry a public execution seems in order

[TheMarkNessMonster]

@ThePariahLivesOn I don't need you in my foxhole.

[borisbmx]

keep up the good work

[KasparHauser6]

Amen!

[HansTheBoss]

Tons of respect for being honest.

Dont let them get you down.

[anongordetas]

In my country (Brazil) in a research people say they will vote to a ex-con, a homophobic or a racist before voting to a atheist.

Feels bad man

[joelarnda]

I don't think you can apply that to all of America. New Jersey does not have a problem with atheists. It is more a media generated contention that isn't necessary - used more political theatre.

[AmyInChains161]

Atheists are the last minority in America that is acceptable to hate.

[GenerationXeroFilms]

@AmyInChains161 Is that Sin "Botch" Cara in your avatar?

[AmyInChains161]

@GenerationXeroFilms Yep. Google Sin Cara Spiderman for some lulz.

[rhiannonbhartwell]

@SerenityCalamity And that is a valid point. See my comment to dummy1616. Pagans are just as hated and despised as atheists, by all mainstream groups because we do not believe in jehova/yahweh/allah. and yet, what always confuses me it that hindus and buddhists are given almost equal footing with the mainstream DESPITE their non-believer status. I'm sorry, but if you're gonna hate only some non-believers, and embrace others, then you're not worth my time.

[eicebleu]

@rhiannonbhartwell The reason Buddhists are given equal footing is because of a misunderstanding of their beliefs... at least here in Texas, folks are under the impression that they're Theists too.

[ch4seriley]

The bible says a person who hates his family member is worse than a non-believer, yet it also says, to be a disciple of jesus, you must hate your family, Christians, in the eyes of god, are worse than non-believers, according to the bible

[rhiannonbhartwell]

@SerenityCalamity so because i believe in a creator, you're going to flat out disrespect me without even getting a chance to know me? I think a rephrasing is in order, as the biggest problems atheists have is with MAINSTREAM religion, ie: christians, jews and muslims. However, pagans, hindus, buddhists are NOT the people going around screaming "repent! you're going to hell." I have great respect for atheists, and do not believe that anyone is wrong for not believing what i do.

[hanson666999]

:^DHAHAHA Great video, I only wish it had been longer. Thanks GXF.

[wideosvatcher]

i will never have respect for grown adults that act like they know what a god is becauae ma and pa said so

[rationalwarrior]

I feel your anger. Everyday with every example I see of this bigotry the angrier I become.

[thereligioussnitch]

this needs more fucking views!!! everyone share this vide at least once!!!!!

[MrBlackatheist]

HI GUYS I WOULD LIKE TO KNOW WHICH ONE OF THIS SOUNDS MORE STUPID:

1.I believe in a invisible magic man in the sky.

2.I don't believe in choice 1.

It angers me to no end how we are hated for not believing in something that belong in a fairy tale.

[MsRobotRock]

*high five*

[Zerenko]

Couldn't of said it better myself.

[indignant99]

@Zerenko "HAVE," not "of." So many illiterates make this same fucked-up mistake.

[Zerenko]

@indignant99 calm down

[Mee551able]

We might be idiots to them cos they Got there heads up there asshols and dont think.

[MrAtrophy]

i saw this recently in the Chicago Tribune , and saw absolutely no recourse or apology . and the same thing applies , if this article was about a major religion there would have been major recourse's . Great video , i agree 100%

[KaroKoenich]

Hear hear.

[UnknownUserName4267]

I remember seeing this comment from Steve Harvey I didn't find it hateful but full of ignorance, his basic argument was "I don't understand your position but I'm not going to try" but atheists are treated badly in the America, as someone mentioned being an atheist isn't an issue in Europe, in fact people hardly mention religion at all.

[rhiannonbhartwell]

You got some great points, but not all religions are made of fail. I follow ancient Egyptian teachings. I know the gods are gone, and there ain't a chance of them coming back. So best I can do is follow my gut on how to live a good life. One of the reasons I subbed and follow you on fb is to show you not ALL theists are douchebags. :-)

[thrashblackdeath666]

@rhiannonbhartwell as follower of ancient egyptian teachings how do you feel when christians and muslims try to make excuses about how their religion is the "true" religion? for example, christians try to say their religion is the one correct religion by mentioning jesus's open tomb. what is your take on all this?

[rhiannonbhartwell]

@thrashblackdeath666 I giggle at them and ask them how it feels to be a follower of a religion based on teachings over 10,000 years old. :-P Seriously though, the logic in founding a religion based on an empty tomb seems ludicrous to me. Did they ever stop to think his body was moved? or possibly that the tomb was robbed? no. they go straight to the magickal thinking of "he's ascended!" As for the claims of "one true" religion, shennanigans i call!

[anglicantian]

Yup, in the States atheists seem hated, fortunately not in Europe.. Jeez, who the fuck is this Steve Harvey? Fucking moron.

[CABALCORE100]

@anglicantian It sucks, but to just piss people off I tell them I an atheist anyway. Most of the reactions are predictable, but it is funny to watch.

[anglicantian]

@CABALCORE100

I can imagine that, I'd like to go to the states someday and see that reaction. And tell them that many many people are atheists in Denmark.

[MrBlackatheist]

@anglicantian he is really popular in the Black community.But it's just him people in every community hate atheist.

[nalalala]

@anglicantian A "comedian". 

[Kotoszayel]

@anglicantian a washed up unfunny racist "comedian"

[frenchatheiste]

@anglicantian

Sometimes for some euripeans, US feel like THE TWILIGHT ZONE : first ever non religious constitution, amazing scientific achievements... but delirious racism & religiosity ... go figure.

[Iceprince1989]

@anglicantian Some comedian that, for some inexplicable reason, was relevant in the 1990's.

[anglicantian]

@Iceprince1989

I have a hard time imagining that guy with a sense of humor.. somehow.

[rationalconscience]

"socially despised anti-semitism/anti-judaism is the jew's fault. they should stop practicing their faith an being so bloody jewish."

"socially despised homophobia is the fag's fault. they should stop with their gay pride and being so damn gay.

"socially despised islamophobia is the muslim's fault. they should stop sharing properties with suicide bombers."

socially ACCEPTED hatred against atheists is the atheist's fault. they should stop existing or convert."

[Ruzihm]

Good point man. It's really sickening that kind of shit flies and nobody seems to notice.

[destronia123]

What makes this so ridiculous is that in any other Western country, atheism is a non-issue.

The American religious right are a total blight on the World.

[Q9R42]

I don't think anyone should respect what's written in the bible. Because it's horrible. As a whole, what's written in that stupid piece of shit is down right horrible. So no one should respect the views expressed in it, and since the bible is the foundation of Christianity, you simply can't respect Christianity as a concept, way of living or philosophy.

Luckily, we live in a culture that picks and chooses what to believe in the bible. If that wasn't the case, we'd be in big trouble.

[SKiiSMLIVE]

Destroying theistic beliefs - one video at a time.

[dummy1616]

yeah I'm in the marine corp and my new officer had me fill out a personality sheet... i swear as soon as i filled out ATHEIST as my religion he has officially avoided me and treated me very very weirdly... no matter I'm getting out soon and plan to use youtube as my voice. All i mean to say with this extremely long wind comment is: YOU ARE 100% RIGHT. EVERYONE HATE ATHEIST

[rhiannonbhartwell]

@dummy1616 I'm an army vet, and when they asked me what to put as religion on my dogtags, and i said "pagan," I got the same looks/general avoidance as you. its not just atheists that are a misunderstood minority. Pagans, like myself, are seen as "just as bad" as atheists to the mainstream religious communities. That's why I have such a deep connection and respect for atheists.

[indignant99]

@dummy1616 smart marine. can't even spell "corps."

[WCdragoninja]

AMEN

[Tittylovwr]

like I said the first time I saw that fuckin asshole . steve Harvey is one stupid mother fucker ...... I said something like that , can't remember . but I can't wait till that asshole disappears like old faget Richard dawson !

[indignant99]

@Tittylovwr what's a "faget?"

[dan91709]

RESPECK MA ATHORITAY! - You hit the nail on the head.

[alexvill1994]

This is pure #GU all day.

[yuriythebest]

Epic video.

Btw telling a black man to respect christianity is the same as telling a black man to respect christianity (cause, you know, christianity/judaism has been used to justify slavery and stuff and contains rules about how to manage slaves)

[KevinJohn9001]

Wow dude, what you said about respecting religion is so true. Not too long ago a Christian told me to "stop disrespecting my beliefs" My response was "You need to earn respect". The fucking logic of these people...

[justjulie37]

Ditto on everything that you said !

[JJPHILLYLG]

To Steve Harvey,

"Fear of the unknown is not a good reason to believe in stupid shit." -Me

[BadgerRavenmoon]

As always, I find your passion inspiring.

[NeroJoe83]

I'll keep a spare umbrella around from now on.

[NeroJoe83]

Nice video.
