@ProfitMuhammed the seventh was our good friend, venomfangx.

4:20 - Suddenly....ALL OF MY RAGE.

[janjust]

hahaha at 6:30....haha, and it's done... haha

[Eyzi100]

Whoa!! that **** doesn't know anything about black holes and that Deepak Chopra dude doesn't know anything about thought nor disease.

[MrDBarch]

@TheScienceFoundation Thanks for uploading Dawkins series; will you or have you uploaded all of the series' titles and episodes?

[justjulie37]

Amazing the bullshit that people will believe

[Thinkdeep420]

Religion poisons the mind. START THINKING!!!!

[leejohntk]

I'm deeply concerned and sad to see that people still don't understand science. Science is not a religion. It is a methodology that aims to explain the phenomena of the universe in the most realistic way by gathering empirical data, making consistent replicable results through experimentation, and subjecting findings through the rigors of questioning, criticism, and debate among the scientific community. Traditional medicine is based on anecdotal evidence and belief in that anecdotal evidence.

[BlackVirtue]

PR of religion called Science. They're showing sharlatans saying that they are alternative to "Scientific Medicine", what a flick. Traditional medicine is different both from sharlatans and Scientific Medicine, but they don't want to show truth, they want to fight for their territory in your mind

Scientific Medicine allows us to live longer and more HEALTHY?? And that's when I thought that they stuff us with toxic medicine which kill our liver and other organs while removing SIMPTOMS of illness.

[LexaMichaelides]

Next: The oldest people in the world (brought to you by SCIENTIFIC MEDICINE)

[DarknessUnresolved]

How very proper of Dawkins to not only called out the utter bullocks for what it really is - which is easy - but to also draw attention to the more practical reasons for why intelligent people should oppose such scams. That tax-payer money is being used to fund this.

GOOD FOR YOU, DAWKINS!

[aliakberza]

apparently three people who watched this video got the degree in ayurveda that lady was talking about

[discolemonade66]

"Skeptical rational inquiry is always the best approach"

[adtc]

I really love how RD can listen to all the nonsense and resist the urge to scream "What a BULLSHIT" at them.. and how he is even willing to appear curious to try the nonsense even though he knows it's nonsense. I don't have such patience like he does and that's the main reason why I respect RD so much.

[stephenboing]

Scientific progress over the last 100 years has doubled OUR life expectancy, yet still some people are not satisfied, for my part i am thankful, i would hope others would mirror my proclivities.

[zeittotschlager]

"Whereabouts in my body is there a black hole?"

*ahem*

[nilbog44]

just kidding. i couldn't stand to leave that comment there without admitting i was joking. and i know its dawkins and i know all of this alternative medicine stuff is total bullshit

[nilbog44]

all these alternative remedies are obviously legit. dawkings is just jealous he didn't come up with them himself!

[GoldenRay82]

Fuck, this Mr. Dawkins is a reasoning machine! Awesomely fast, precautious, smart and intelligent. It'd be brilliant having a chat with him. Just great.

Come on Mr. Dawkins, keep punishing those bullshitters!

[vvtor]

Almost got hives listening the deluded. Black holes inside our bodies? Really?

[2241322]

I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW DAWKINS MANAGES TO KEEP A STRAIGHT FACE. RESPECT.

[mythicnoble]

penn and teller did this better

[Polybun]

@mythicnoble hmmmmmm, only because they call these people what they really are. "AND THEN THERE'S THIS ASSHOLE!"

[nilbog44]

@mythicnoble they both are doing a service by exposing this nonsense and promoting rational thought. why do you have to choose one over the other? why not respect and appreciate dawkins and penn & teller? sheesh

[TheBeardedThinker]

richard dawkins is a hero

[LuciferLBelial]

36:18-36:24, Lol, some peoples cancer was cured by placebos.

[WaltonSauce]

03:01

Dawkins inner voice: "Is she fucking serious?"

31:21 It's H2O numbnuts

[HolyCity2012]

I do not see many constructive remarks in this comment section. Also, I am completely unaware that Mr. Dawkins has received his doctorate in anything, at all.

[dpaanlka]

@HolyCity2012 He does indeed hold a doctoral degree from Oxford, has held several fellowships and prestigious posts at various universities, and before he became famous for spreading the good news of atheism, he revolutionized the scientific community's understanding of evolution by promoting gene-centrism and introducing the concept of the phenotypic "meme". If you've ever used the word "meme" for anything, including "internet meme", you've used a word invented by Richard Dawkins.

[edwardschlosser1]

Most people are superstitious, savage, monkeys in nice clothes. That is why quacks thrive and goof balls have a following. These people are just extremely stupid.

[TheMadSlick]

This is so amazing relevant: /watch?v=swDpWNKB5Co

[geokavel]

I just love how the "and im a mormon" ad is in the video suggestions :P

[vestatentator]

You know why you never see faith healers treating polio ?

Cos Science fu*king healed it !

[iIRaazrIi]

Dr Dawkings is boss.

[nilbog44]

@iIRaazrIi who is dr dawkings?

[FullMetalDoof14]

Dawkins is just the greatest. He lets them explain their point, and then he pokes a hole in their argument with a small amount of satisfaction in his voice. I would love to see an episode 3!

[jew117]

makes my fear for the future of this planet

[FuzzamuzzaGaming]

Esp 3?

[urendanger]

@FuzzamuzzaGaming Sorry, only two. Check the Wikipedia entry.

[Hugebull]

i wonder how many angles there are, if we all got a couple of them on our shoulders...

Dumb bitch, get in the kitchen.

[Jonstern1983]

I honestly didn't get vaccinated until I was 19, but that's because I was (and am again) on immunosuppressants because of a kidney transplant I got when I was a baby, and then again at 21.

[SVOkid86]

oh god... my family believes in this shit and it drives me nuts. When i try to explain to them why alternative cannot work and has no evidence for its effectiveness, I am labled a gullible person who just believes whatever "evil medicine" has told me. FML

[SPAS12beast]

@SVOkid86 Haha I feel for you dude that sucks.

[skycrusher00]

That woman made me laugh. Not in the funny way, cause now I'm convinced that reason will die to this absurd superstition.

[XskysthelimitX]

"what you know, you know" i am losing faith in manking now. we stopped evolving and started going backwards, hurray for stupidity! how people believe in this shit is beyond me!

[HHSW99HC]

Every human being, except a very small percentage has a double helix in their cell. Some people have more strands, we used to in Atlantis have 12 strands, and they're in the form of 4 triangles, facing in, in each cell. -Elisis Livingstone

[djkillertomatotv]

The squirrel cut away! 

[protossenslaver]

What. The. F*ck.

Do these spiritual nut-jobs even understand how removed from reality they are?

[jackt2469]

I love these people, give me such a laugh.

[angelrosas999]

I love this video. I would say let those creationists die. On the good side this nonsense helps fight overpopulation and stupid people. :)

[muzammilali007]

Every human has a double helix DNA except a few. How's Dawkins keeping his cool? I'd slap that fraudulent bitch.

[HHSW99HC]

@muzammilali007 Was just about to correct you until I watched further into the video. How people like this can exist in society is beyond me.

[MonbaraChan]

This magical healing is much more easy to understand than real medicine and thus is more appealing, well at least to the more foolish ones of us.

[rebel7332]

So great!! I love this man

[Desertphile]

A damn fine show. And I cannot imagine how Dr Dawkins can keep from laughing in these clowns' faces.

[uscjd2004]

@Desertphile I'm with you, friend. If I was in his shoes I'd be screaming at the top of my lungs.

[NeoDarkReconing]

@Desertphile hahaha yeah i know I would be pissing my pants lol

[Polybun]

@Desertphile I think he isn't laughing because, like me, these people don't make me want to laugh at all. Instead, they infuriate me. They make me ashamed to be human.

[furyofbongos]

All this acceptance of mystical b.s. comes from poor education. Government schools do not teach critical thinking, not to mention practical things like how the financial system works.

[Doomcharger]

Richard's face on 04:27 is priceless! " Lady, WTF did you just say?"

[ScooperGetHype]

What a bunch of hokom these people believe. I love it when Dawkins exposes this sort of thing.

[HConstantine]

Homeopathy is safe, in the sense that giving an AIDs patient water and telling him he's been treated is safe.

[HConstantine]

How can he keep from laughing in their faces?

[Doomcharger]

@HConstantine Dawkins is just that calm.

[MrWonkoSane]

Around four minutes in, at the chanting, Dawkins looks like he is genuinely trying not to laugh out loud.

[davelantor]

lets dilute the sea with all the medications we could find ... that way everyone will be cured :P

[3inherjar]

I've never seen Dawkins with such a buffeled look on his face up until he's been upgraded to an Atlantean :)

[Neoblitzer]

Why does this video have so little views?

[slickwick45]

@Neoblitzer Because it was put up about 4 days ago. Don't worry it will get more

[TABOOVSKNOWLEDGE]

@Neoblitzer That's why Richard Dawkins is so concerned!

[thelordmemnoch]

I have a shred of Richard Dawkins' intelligence and I want to slap ALL of these people.

[rebel7332]

@thelordmemnoch

Why? can't you handle the truth? Is it too scientific for you? Well, if you get cancer in your lifetime, you may dance to the full moon! Than I will go to the hospital :)

[thelordmemnoch]

@rebel7332 You misunderstood my comment. My point was that if I, not as intelligent as Dawkins, had little patience with idiots, then I can imagine how *he* feels.

[Hacktor666]

I feel a disturbance in the force... like a million voices crying out: " BULLSHIT"!!!

[Garrick89]

@Hacktor666 I too feel a disturbance, like that which many voices cry out in agony; and then, nothing.

"I've diluted the sperm 30%"

"WE'RE SURE TO GET PREGNANT!"

[TABOOVSKNOWLEDGE]

@HomoCyborgZombie You did it all wrong! It starts with a reduction of 90% you must cut off!

[HomoCyborgZombie]

@TABOOVSKNOWLEDGE Whoops.

In my attempt to reference XKCD I missed the X. It's 30x. Is that the same? :U

[TABOOVSKNOWLEDGE]

@HomoCyborgZombie All you have to do is cut your penis up 10x's, not 30x's

Just make sure you shake the remanding 10% of your nub in all 3 dimensional directions, 10x's each!

[MattHunX]

"Nobody knows what the structure of liquid water is..."

He's either genuinely this stupid, or simply a fraud, pretending the last few hundred years in scientific advancement didn't happen.

I wouldn't be surprised either way.

[MattHunX]

These people are not fit to breed. And to the detriment of the entire race, they, by some true miracle, manage to get as far as having children. I genuinely do not understand how they can get as far as that.
