  • wow, you've just described atheism too.

  • @glower125 you are an idiot!

  • It's the same with reincarnation though. If you are bad in one life when you are reincarnated into something shitty... like a skunk! If you good you may be reincarnated into a human, a lion or a elephant etc.

  • Its sunday morning and your thinking how to start a religion? Whats wrong with you? You should be thinking about where your aspirines are. Get drunk on saturday man.

  • Awesome!

    I think I've got it! Thanks dude. I may write the first testament for my religion!

  • All religions in the past and present, have a reward. And that reward is often the primary motivator.

  • Interesting thought experiment, hopefully nobody takes it literally...

  • Hey. Just about Islam the "purpose of life" is to grow/develop our personalities/essential selves in morality and god-consciousness, through understanding, making choices & suffering, through these these 3 things we are developing a relationship of pleasure/ love/closeness to God/Allah and His attributes.

  • Smart! Unmasking it all. Thanks!

  • this guy makes alot of sense,i think im going to start my own religion and open up a church, its all a hustle and a lot a money could be made from stupid people....

  • Oh yeah well my moms Christian, and my dads catholic, and I'm an atheist. So no it's not always hereditary.

  • I have ZERO tolerance for guys without shirts!

  • @politicoochie09 I think this guy lives in a hot area and its summer, thats why he took his shirt off, woh doesnt^^

  • I'm Atheist, so I don't have to choose. Yay! I make my own rules :).

  • 5:15 you said dew dew ewwwwwwww

  • You forgot the part where you have to be intolerant of other religions and phisically try to destroy other religions. This part made me think about basic human evolution. The strong survives while the weak dies off. So a religion that kills other religions will be "stronger" not smarter, but stronger.

  • @AForkSpoon Not the case. Memetic Fitness does not require destruction of other ideas, renaming other's terms and absorbing their ideas. "You god, that's our lesser god"

    

  • This is the main reason why i stopped believing in god. I noticed all these things.

  • Logic is better at perpetuating itself.

  • Well, he's the prototype of the teenage-internet-user-all-alon­e-in-his-bedroom. That explains the lack of garb. Religion is a viral meme whose culture medium is human culture. Great Thesis, son. Now go get your doctorate in psychology of groups. Then post a response to this very persona from your office decorated with degrees. Support it with statistics. Regards, a Professor, retired.

  • lol, have you ever seen a nephilimfree video? I'm not saying you're bat shit crazy like he is, but your headset/mic combo made me think of him right away.

  • wikipedia is not the rigth god convert to google before its too late or your net will shut off for ever.

  • uhmm....off note, but why are you naked?......

  • @MockingVenus he was probably masturbating to wikipedia

  • @MockingVenus He want be in the same cloths he had on his birthday

  • The way to create religion is to give false hopes to the desperate and the weak-minded so they could follow you.

  • why would you want too when you have jesus and his father obey christ

  • fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck it all nothing matters anyways man.... lol but really it doesnt matter

  • bitchin cam

  • You never heard of the Church of Google? It's real brah - you aren't alone!

  • @Augject ??? atheism isn't religious oppression. i believe in the right to free speech. this includes religious speech. but i also believe we have a right to treat religious beliefs in the same way we treat people who believe aliens are kidnapping cattle, in the same way we treat people who believe magic spells are controlling their lives, in the same way we treat people who claim magnets will improve gas mileage.

    i wouldn't censor harry potter or the bible, but i will call both fairy tales.

  • @Augject ??? my comment was in response to your "if your an atheist stfu". i am a vet of oif and oef. its funny how the people who aren't willing to stick their lives on the line when it comes to this country are so willing to try and remove the rights of others. freedom of speech is most important when protecting speech that is not popular with the masses. i am an atheist, but i am a vet as well. i have the right to talk, i fought for it.

  • do yuo have a probnlem with yuor body? is there sometjhing wrong with ity. put some clothes on yuo idiot

  • @otherworldtrader1 Do you have a problem with your grammar use you're grammar skills you learned in school you idiot.

  • @potty268 When you said "Do you have a problem with your grammar" you did not put a question mark at the end so stop trash talking.

  • @7777electric You're a fucking hypocrite.

  • @Augject if you are not a veteran stfu. i fought to protect our country, its constitution and the freedom of our people. what have you done?

  • Just look up Joseph Smith the founder of Mormonisim.

  • To all the people who make videos half naked, please don't wear a shirt. I look like a homosexual porn addict watching you in the public transit. I'm not bashing the video, which was great btw, but seriously!

  • @GFoladi You said you don't want him to wear a shirt? YOU'RE SICK! ;)

  • @heavymetalnguyen lol sorry I wrote that on iphone and keyboard is small, I meant I want them to wear shirts =D

  • it's all just totally reductionist. have you ever heard about myths & fairy tales? rationality, study & scientific cognition? altered states & sensual cognition? anything? well, but yes, such a primitive media virus can live and compete, as we see - but in more closed system conditions. this seems to describe regressive, rigid forms of beliefs. this won't work today.

  • MUSIC IS MY RELIGION : we are the gods and goddesses W W W.daelohmen.webs.com THIS IS THE PSIONIC TEMPLE

    THE TEMPLE OF THOHT

    THE INNERSPACE DREAM GALLERY

  • Screw religion as if we don't have enough wars and fight over religion already.. Why not respect others and treat them right and stop tearing other ms down because they refuse to conform to your lifestyle..

  • Good idea, I think an update is required also, something people of our day and age can relate to, much like the Raelian Movement of Canada, started in the 80s, it took Christianity and Judaism and merged it with Alien myth, the leader claims to be half human half Alien and the brother of Christ. Yep madness, but! it had 70,000 followers in the 90s and still growing, its message seems to be, get your tits out and lets all have sex... Serious! :D check it out.

  • @SensibleStan sounds pretty cool

  • I think this video might have missed out an important ingredient in religion- regulate the sex baby!

  • Atheism: the new religion. It's all the rage these days.

  • "How would I go about starting my own religion? So I Googled it."

    Google has all the answers. GOOGLE IS GOD.

  • to start a religion, first you need to make up a bat shit crazy story of a impossible birth scenario and bam a supernatural human born then lie lie lie lie add some more shit to this lie and repeat it enough to the public they begin to believe it.

    wait hitler said something down these lines and he was a catholic with some occultist ideas on the side!

  • @FawkesUniverse That just about covers it. =)

  • Are you a pilot? If so your airplane is as big as a house. You should pawn the headgear and get a better camera.

    I'd like to watch your videos but the aesthetics can't hold me. I'd like to see you up the quality of the presentation because the script is good.

  • @AugustusLarch If you look at the date the vid is about 4 years old

  • @kokofan50

    I have videos four year old. They don't look like this. It must be part of his style.

  • I'm starting a following. It is going to change how we see the world, and it will make our lives much more enjoyable than you could possibly imagine. Follow Me...

  • one question joe do you beleive jesus walked the earth and performed over 300 prophacies and miracles

  • O Flying Spaghetti Monster,Strike down this blasphemer,show him thy saucy,spicy wrath,Mark him with the fire of your winged tentacles!!

  • @redtihor1 I shall defeat the spaghetti monster with my weapons of parmesan cheese and basil. With these I shall slay and DEVOUR the flying spaghetti monster!

    BWHAHAHAHAHAAAAA!!!

  • who the fuck cares where he is, what he has on, focus on the knowledge, that is what matters here, get it right, LMAO, I think this guy rocks

  • IS THIS GUY REALLY BROADCASTING IN FRONT OF A FUCKING BUNK BED.

  • put your shirt back on.. -.-

  • If I lived 3,000 years ago and God told me to start a religion where there was no afterlife, no Heaven or Hell, You died end of story. Then simultaneously someone invented a fictitious religion where everyone went to a beautiful place for eternity when they died, and non-believers were tortured for all of eternity. Which of these 2 religions would most likely flourish, and which one would fail miserably ?

  • @k3w1b3an5 I would think a religion that didn´t threaten to kill you if you didn´believe, would be good. A religion that preaches equality between men and women, between races, and not to mistreat children.......... But that wouldn´t have worked in favour of the people who wanted power to control other people. I rather enjoy the thought that in the next 3000 years.... religion will dissipate.

  • the magixsandwhichism anyone?

  • Thow must love the xbox and ps3 thow must

    Wershup halo 123 and reach god of war and pong or thow will go to the place of barny

  • Is that a Kicker's helmet or a headset.

  • You need to package this into a "Do It Yourself: Religion" kit and sell it at Barnes and Noble.

  • u could at least put a t-shirt!

  • church of steve

  • lol "Whenever I have any questions about the Universe... I google it." <3 you

  • L Ron Hubbard watched this video and made up scientology. so did jesus 2000 yrs ago...

  • That was brilliant, you hit the nail squarely on the head!

  • Excellent.

  • you forgot the most importent thing (your proof)

    how people will believe you?

    I think you read too much chris. and you measure every thing by it.

  • @m7n20wolf thats easy my friend. u write a book that says its all true, and then u cite it as proof.......

  • Google IS GOD.

  • be shirtless or perish!

  • How typical of an atheist to presume religion is something one concocts to manipulate people. Does it occur to you that the originators genuinely believed what they preached? Postmodernn hindsight is a wonderful thing, eh?

    I've had dreams about God, Hell etc. I know these are memes but ancient people didn't.

    Does it occur to fans of genetic/memetic evolution that 'God' is the *cumulative* collective memetic conscious creating a holographic universe and therefore also evolving with it.

  • GTS: Google That Shit

  • ALL BOW TO THE ALMIGHTY GOOGLE. THOU SHALT NOT USE YAHOO

  • Audio good, Video bad. An amusing cartoon would of been better!!!

  • May be good. I stopped watching after 30 seconds, after I realized you were not going to put on a shirt...

  • Brilliant!

  • DooDoo 5:15

    Nice video btw thumbs up bro

  • Google search is more accurate than the bible. Yes

  • btw i was raised muslim. it's very easy to see that they are all bunch of crap once u are outside of religion. but when ur in, it's really hard to doubt everything u were presented as truth since u were born. so i think im very succesful. also, islam is really no different than christianity. it's exactly the same, u feel the same, only the names and the dates of holidays are different

  • @dannidale I Just recently left christianity...the only thing that really stays for a while after is the fear of HELL...but the more you actually "THINK" about it... it fades.

  • @iekenta03

    yea, i know what you mean. i had hard time taking god out of my life as well. it's like suddenly taking your mom out of your life and trying to think that she didn't even existed. It was hard but it also made me mad that ppl filled me with bunch of crap that I accepted an invisible man as true as the fact that i have hands.

  • very useful vid. i'm gonna start my own. i'm no less imaginative than jesus, or mohammed. i can make up shit as i go.

  • And lets not only let him into the religion, but give him $300 so he would feel to guilty to quit/convert

  • Love your video, hate your torso. Put on a shirt man.

  • Love the video, hate your torso. Put on a shirt man.

  • funny dude and oh so true

  • put a shirt on you pasty bastard

  • Two things missing: a charismatic leader with hallucinations of god or angels. A concis but not too concise holy book. That along with the stuff in the video is the start of a new religion.

  • @Ramshobraja : just a charismatic leader is fine. Actually having him get hallucinations is probably a bad thing, since it shows how we can't be trusted to distinguist fantasy from reallity.

    Him having FAKE halluciations is fine, and recomended even, but real ones are a problem.

  • "Compare your lives to mine, and then kill yourselves!" -Bender

  • "Bite my shiny metal ass!" -Bender

  • Hmm, Interesting

  • i worship the athiest god

  • Hahahaa, Irony at it's best!

    However, I warn you to heed caution.. that's idea is preposterous enough for the typical religious person to believe. It's bad enough I've seen Christians claim atheists as having their religion in believing in nothingism. xD

  • Go the FSM!

  • i worship google the god of knowledge. i am right there with you. do you recognize chris angel as the messiah who can do anything that jesus can do but bigger better and faster?

  • Google God? Wikipedia God is above all!!!

  • blasphemy!! wikipedia is nothing but a reflection of the knowledge that google has given to mankind. google is the one and only true god.

  • Dude google is a search engine. Wikipedia on the other hand is an enlighten engine. Different dimensions dude!!!!

  • @greycloud24 haha, that is so true and awesome.

  • @greycloud24 ROLLING ON THE FLOOR LAUGHING MY ASS OFF !!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • @greycloud24 hell yea! lol. praise google! google has allowed us to live in the great information age. give thanks that google has brought light to the world of misinformation! 

    kinda random, but if a robot was speaking in tongues, would it be in binary?

  • @greycloud24 repent jesus loves you.

  • actually you're wrong about eastern religion and reincarnation. The very idea of karma is a reward/punishment system. If you do good, you get a better life next time around. If you do bad, you get a worse one. Rewards and punishment. That also explains why the guy in charge gets to take your money. He was REALLY good last time around, and therefore deserves your money.

  • Good video, etc etc. But please put a shirt on. -_-

  • hey be glad we didn't have to find whether or not he has pants on

  • @SarigHD repent jesus loves you.

  • @jangel2771 ?? i have nothing against mexicans. but they aren't near as knowledgable as google. google knows all.

  • @greycloud24 Im not saying you do haha,

  • @greycloud24 jesus loves you man.

  • @jangel2771 Jesus is not here anymore, man.

  • reminds me of the book "The angel's Game"

  • did you make a Religion lol messing with peoples head is fun think i try it lol

  • look up ghostofdayinperson, she started a religion called gibberish, her videos on it are quite amusing

  • If you want to make a little money, write a book. If you want to make a lot of money, create a religion.- L Ron Hubbard (Founder of Scientology)

  • Delivered with a big Kool-Aid smile:"Hi, We want to clone our point of view onto every human soul on the planet. We are after total global take over. We are in bed with Public Relations Think Tank firms in our quest. We despise independent operating or thinking souls (those who use their divine spark) and have unique points of view. Those will have to be done a way with in the coming New World Order! So would you like to come to our latest fellowship seminar? It's totally free."

  • you've heard of Sim City, right? ....Sim Religion!!!!! GO!

  • Starting a religion is like starting a pyramid scam. You just need enough believers.

  • It's easy. All you need is a combination of threats and lullabyes.

  • hey brilliant!!! :P

  • you cool men ,you are right100 and 10%

  • I can't decide if that's a very small head or huge headphones.

  • Those headphones were made for Chewbaca

  • Good dissection of religion.

    Subscribed.

  • Undoubtedly, Religion DOES NOT make you a better person, just like how laws have not stopped people from commiting crimes. Spirituality, on the other hand allows you to become closer to the awareness of your soul, what you are capable of, and the true nature of who you really are: love. It most definitely makes you happier, more peaceful, more loving, and generally enriches your life. Spirituality invites you to find your own truth and self, religion begs you to accept someone elses.

  • your headphones are cool

  • Great vid.

    You should always claim to be a prophet and that the almighty has spoken to you, privately of course without any witnessess.

  • This is a very cool vid!!

    Great job on the research.

  • i just hope you're wearing pants. you look like a naked astronaut. now pass the collection plate

  • fleecing the flock !

    also see Marjoe Gortner on the how to of preaching for money

    most people are stupid which is why religion is successful, one needs this and to encourage this, baffle the plebs with bullshit & untenable promises of an after they are more willing to do your fighting & stealing for you thus aquiring more wealth & power

    religion is a hate crime against humanity

    no one likes to admit to stupidity hence the reluctance to give up their faith

    I shit on your god

  • I think you are a fat little douche who will die a virgin.

  • Dawkins FTW

  • just wondering, do you live with your parents?

  • "Near death experiences brings on delusions as the brain is shutting down. You would be surprised what an oxygeb depribed brain will do." Oh and you would know because you had a near death experience.

    Are you telling me that if you had a son, he wouldint be athiest?

    An athiest raises an athiest. A christian raises a christian. I dont see how that fact alone could be used specifically against christians.

    You contridicting yourself.

  • "An athiest raises an athiest. A christian raises a christian. I dont see how that fact alone could be used specifically against christians."

    I can't speak for other atheists, but I certainly would not force my child to be an atheist. I would simply equip my child with the critical thinking skills s/he needs to make the decision that is right for him/her. If s/he decides to be an atheist, great. If s/he wants to be a Christian/Muslim/Buddhist/etc. that's fine too.

  • I seriously doubt that. You are strong in your beliefs. You arent Ok with me saying that God exists, nevermind your own son/doughter. So when your kid is 7 and asks if their is a God, you would respond " I dont think so, how about you? That alone is a huge influence on the child. I doubt their would be adult christians in her life. So from a verry young age all her family and all adults around her would be athiests. That is more than enough for the child to make up its mind that their is no God.

  • I assume that you are old enough that you have already made your decision. Maybe I'm wrong to assume that, but you definitely communicate like an adult. If the child is 7 I simply don't say much regarding religion because at that age, it's indoctrination and actually indoctrination bothers me more than anything. Sure, maybe I might unconsciously influence the child, but there is no atheist equivalent to the Christian or Muslim "you have to believe in order to avoid hell".

  • I am only human, so I can't be perfect, but I'll do my best to leave the decision up to my child. I certainly won't force anything on him/her. the other thing is that despite how outspoken I am about religion, I can get along with religious people and I don't have to fear any consequences of my child becoming religious whereas in a religious upbringing, the parents usually approach a child that comes out as atheist with disappointment, anger, or sadness.

  • "An athiest raises an athiest. A christian raises a christian."

    We both agreed on that and that was all I was trieng to say.

  • that isn't necessarily true

    generalization is usually wrong

  • "generalization is usually wrong"

    am i the only one who got this?

  • I realized that wasn't exactly the best wording,

    but although in many cases one raises children to have the same faith they do, I know a few people who have allowed their children to explore different faiths.

  • The only fair way to let your kids learn about religion , IN MY OPINION, is to not introduce them to any of it until they are old enough to understand what you are telling them. I know that isnt possible because of the holidays we celebrate and how they have to be explained at an early age.

  • "We both agreed on that and that was all I was trieng to say."

    Actually it seems like he was disagreeing with you. He was saying that an atheist wouldn't neccessarily raise an atheist.

    But even then I think the point is more that I don't hear of very many muslims raising buddhists or christians raising hindus.

  • i was raised in a catholic family and im an atheist now. this argument is totally wrong in many cases

  • And so the same applys to you only you are told by your religion to teach people about your god so they grow up to believe it and also the fear of hell not only are you forcing someone to believe but you take away the option of free thinking

    The notion of god is obsurd people believe because its easyer or they dont want to risk punishment if you do a small amout of research you will see it is totally dilusionall to believe in god

  • when posting this comment:

    "...So when your kid is 7 and asks if their is a God, you would respond " I dont think so, how about you? That alone is a huge influence on the child. I doubt their would be adult christians in her life. So from a verry young age all her family and all adults around her would be athiests. That is more than enough for the child to make up its mind that their is no God. " where you thinking of someone because you said her instead of he/she

  • see "tostrong4you"athiesm isnt a belief ,it doesnt require belief ,i dont have to believe in atheism to be an athiest,i am athiest BECAUSE i dont believe, just as you would say im a theist because i believe.

  • Kids will believ anything? Obviosly you didnt.

    Or maybe you grew up in a athiest environment and that would explaine why you are one.

    Either way your contridicting yourself

    Ok so how do you explain when a preist gets a message from God about someperson that no one could have possibly known exept that person?

    How do you explaine all the people who had near death experiences and said they saw hell/heaven/angels whatever.

    Christianity built this nation and made good people.

  • Kids will pretty much believe whatever thier parents say, hence why the US is a Christian nation since the fundy pilgrims went over to the US lands.

    I would explain the stuff with the priests in the same way that I would explain psychichs, it's all been debunked.

    Near death experiences brings on delusions as the brain is shutting down. You would be surprised what an oxygeb depribed brain will do.

  • Christianity didn't build up the nation, not fighting in the second world war until someone attacked you and still having a strong nation at the end built up the nation. Most of the world was ten sorts of fucked up before you entered and you tipped the balance.

    No god needed

  • take a shower shave dress be respectful. Religion is evil. God is within us we are holy spirit. Worshiping anything other then the holy ghost of all the good called God is all we need and each other. So please burn your video put in inside your fireplace and enjoy the view. Stop the madness stupid person noone will follow you or fund you. Go fuck yourself please and the mother who raiced you moran. God help us.

  • That was good.

  • Oh this is excellent. I have a memetics group on facebook. And I was curious how to build a successful political movement based on memetic engineering principles. I'm religious but I like the ideas here of how to generate a movement.

  • can anyone tell me why my video responses only stay up for a little while?

    they completely agree with this guy, but they are always missing

  • this is truth

  • LMAO this guy is Funny "no one worships google but me"

  • Thanks L Ron Hub

  • Also, in relation to what you said about a religion being more "evolutionarily viable" so to speak if it has a favorable view towards science, psychiatry and psychology are both psuedo-sciences, which helps to explain the new religion's rapidly growing prosperity in today's environment of rampant atheism. Although many people are now too savvy to believe in god, most are as a result even more gullible towards people who parade as scientists and offer quasi-religious insight into human behavior.

  • are you a scientologist? i ask because they are the only other people who speak out against the study of brains and behavior. rampant atheism? atheism is simply not believing in magic in a society where a deity named God is the most popular for of magic. i wouldnt describe our times as rampant clear level headed critical thinking. I think we still live in the dark ages of humanity- as evidence look at the prevalence of religion.
