Stanhope On... Why Atheists Have Better Morals

[93ason]

Religion was (and still is) often more of an excuse in power struggles, rather than the reason behind them. Just like it was (and still is) used to control the masses. Religion is not the great evil, it's just a fucking tool.

[PaladinHero]

Damn, who is that brunette piece of ass in the white party skirt smoking a cigarette? Yes please.

[yogicbrew]

Despite the obscenity, he's not far off, although humans find lots of reasons to kill each other. Religion is simply one of many excuses.

[rehabwales]

@rsm57 another point is that no one ever kills someone in the name of atheism. Some murdering bastards might be atheist but they don't kill for that.

[ReistLaxCoach]

@rehabwales no. But, an atheist would be asked to battle for a good christian country, and not complain about it.

[rehabwales]

@ReistLaxCoach Well some might not...ans some might. Thats humans we don't all think the same.

[ReistLaxCoach]

@rehabwales No, an atheist would be asked to fight for a "good christian" country… but, find me a christian asked to fight for an atheist.

That's what I thought…

[saraizurarmygrl]

@ReistLaxCoach athiest or christian, they are both asked to fight for their country.....duh. either way God loves everyone, including this own children that dont even believe in Him. If God asked me to fight for an athiest, I would gladly do so with pride.

[ReistLaxCoach]

@saraizurarmygrl Really? Even though Jesus says in Luke 19:21 "But those mine enemies, which would not that I reign over them, bring them hither, and slay them before me". Sorry, but this doesn't sound like the benevolent, loving, caring god that people would have us believe exists, especially in church on Sundays. Does it to you? And, you would defy the word of your lord? That might be considered blasphemy… be careful! You might be thinking on your own…!

[saraizurarmygrl]

@rehabwales People kill because they do. Im sure there have been athiests that have killed out of cold blood, just like some crazy person proclaiming to be christian. Thats just humans people! Some are ignorant, some have common sense and a heart. That has nothing to do in your belief in God or not. Give me a break

[rsm57]

Hitler and Stalin were both Atheists. I think they killed a fair few. If you're going to do observation stand up at least get the some of the basic observations right.

[pmcdon02]

@rsm57 Stalin, yes. Hitler, you have to be kidding. If he was, he hid it well.

[Damn6Deal6Done6]

@rsm57 Doug Stanhope is not an observational comedian.

[Du3cky]

While I get his point, I'd use an army to beat religion out of a society. You only need to do it once, then no more wars about it :P

[souporjoe]

Me may be an asshole but he's a hilariously on point asshole. Keep raging Doug.

[johhny3rubs]

doug stanhope is an ashole

[saraizurarmygrl]

@johhny3rubs he's just ignorant. whats funny is every comment that goes against this guy is hidden because of too many negative votes, so i just give a positive vote for that reason.

[johhny3rubs]

@saraizurarmygrl I was just being sarcastical. Calling him ignorant is like calling a Christian smart.

[saraizurarmygrl]

@johhny3rubs Im not being sarcastic, im being serious. Again, it's not about Christians, or athiests, its people in general that aren't smart. That's like saying if you wear a red shirt you're right, if you wear a yellow shirt, you're wrong. Don't classify people because of their religion, race, or anything else you may group them into. People are stupid just because they are. This is not an argument, it's fact. Bye.

[johhny3rubs]

@johhny3rubs You're all a bunch of asholes for the negative votes. Stanhope/Palin 2012

[fahim113]

What an asshole!! But what hes saying makes total sense...keep up the good work you drunk fuck!!

[lustreboy]

loving your work Doug.

fuck, why can't everyone be as clued up as you?

well, not everyone cause then we'd have no one to point and laugh (and cry a little) at.

[texaschizophrenic]

Fuck yes. Pure epic.

[OGjimbo]

Thanks for putting up more videos lately Doug.

If you're ever in Colorado again I'll be there for sure.

[sethvicious]

did you see him at hermits hideaway? fucking epic show, Susan Boyle bit was one of the funniest things I have ever heard/seen

[RubbishWithRobert]

@sethvicious Does he have any new material?

[3pacsofgum]

@RubbishWithRobert

You can very well imagine, I'm sure, that coming up with good jokes is difficult. That's why comedians use the same bits many times.
