What we are and do, is what defines us.

Some people haven't got the mental stability to cope with the fact that we are as a people and species as we do and think, simply that and nothing more.

There is no superior being that will guide us or judge us.

Because that would strike the religious people with fear and hopelessness.

'No God to guide us, tell us right from wrong ? The world would go down the toilet'.

That's sad really, not being able to be proud of being human and our accomplishments.

[Courage78]

Wow... you said a whole lot of nothing.

You managed to create 7 videos, without actually asnwering the questions.

What I did hear you do, however, was create excuses for your 'God'.

Not just that, you claim to know his motives...

I find you an interesting individual that you would know this.

I guess Job would find you interesting as well.

Religious people are people who rather not think about the sense of life or rather the absense of sense.

[returnthesoapbox]

So explain my video 5 points away. Why the scientific imbalance?

[psolutin]

@returnthesoapbox See they could not see your answer. What do they see? They want God to be responsible to them, not them responsible to God. They must be super Gods.  I see your answer clearly though. Crystal. Thanks.

[nathanomgnathan]

By the waaayyyy. if you were at all a free thinker you would disengage with the christian faith. IT WILL BLOW YOU AWAY HOW DIFFERENT YOUR LIFE WILL BE.

[returnthesoapbox]

If anyone is being ignorant, it is you.

Go to the #5 video and see how "Christian" I am.

If you were a free thinking you would not see the choice of either believeing in Christianity or being an athiest as the only two options. The world is not bianary, why do you think this way?

Christianity is a lie.

[nathanomgnathan]

i'm an atheist, just so we'tre clear

[nathanomgnathan]

you're an ignorant beligerent biased dumbass, who tries to prove points by contorting peoples uses of figures of speech. nice job being an intelligent christian, i'll give you that, but also good job on being an arrogant one.

[returnthesoapbox]

Ahahahah! " ignorant beligerent biased dumbass"

" intelligent christian" This is one proof your misinformed. I am not a Christain any longer and my videos in fact expose christianity for what it is and that aint good.

[nathanomgnathan]

oh you know, sorry, actually. I thought you were christian.

but if your so atheist, why are you responding so harshly to that video

[funkygibby]

The Great sky wizard, if such a thing exists is an cruel bastard or doesn't give a fuck, You come into this life with nothing, you leave with nothing, all the rest is propaganda mate.

[janmango]

for once I feel the urge to step out of my selfchosen millenial muteness, and react:

Returnthesoapbox video's are a pile of shit.

Hang this commendment above your door.

Greets,

J*w*h, a.k.a. mango

[returnthesoapbox]

The muteness was serving you so well. Don't go changing.

[lardcarcass]

what an idiot.

[returnthesoapbox]

Love you too. Blaaak.

[paulstrat97]

God doesn't want to heal amputees ? But he heals cancer? How stupid is it to think that's an answer? Very ! There's no possible way that any god would ever choose to heal one disease or ailment, but not others. Wow! That's some real illogical and irrational thinking . Religion makes up excuses for its flawed logic---"It's God's will", "God works in mysterious ways", I mean, come on, how foolish to believe such laughably false assessments, based on "flat earth" and divine-magic mentalities ;

[returnthesoapbox]

First of all the amputee does not have an ailment or disease. Secondly God has given us the technology to do transplants so in many ways God has decided to grace us with the capability to heal these people.

Do you eat pancakes for breakfast? Then why don't you eat a pond moss too? Oh yeah you have free will. God can design the world how he wants. Lizards can grow back their tail. The human liver regenerates. So I guess I am foolish to acknowleging design and youre smart for ignoring it.

So I'm watching the explenation of prayer. Nice thing to know that praying in the old testament is not the same as 'spells' in other belief systems, and seconds later you tell that it is part of a system and it may hurt me if I'm doing it in a wrong way. I felt a terrible pain right then... It's called 'shame', and I'm probably feeling it because you can't feel it yourself.'Ignorance is the curse of mankind', go and figure which philosopher the bible nicked that from. Peace.

[NibbitsForLife]

And there it is. The first question which asks for a reasonable answer, and how predictable: 'on the man', you're a hypocrit if you ask this question. This, I think, is a classical piece of psychological mirroring. A few seconds later you got me laughing. 'Trying to sell your belief system that god is imaginary'. You know what 'imaginary' means right? It's when you make something real which is not there, like god (boogyman/santa claus). You do this through faith, acceptance without evidence.

[NibbitsForLife]

Lol. A free thinker? Maybe a self-proclaimed one. Next, you stereotype company life. I hope you someday may work in a company which has moral integrity. To this point, no statements about religion have been made and you only played 'on the man' and 'on company life'.

[NibbitsForLife]

Ok. Second, playing 'on the man', while there's still no point being made, rather than the obvious assumption that there's a difference between how a child thinks and the way a grown man does, and so only showing your own ignorance, will cost you two points. Moving on.

[NibbitsForLife]

Usualy, ignorant people are NOT very critical. They seem to talk before they think, and believe in that same manner.

returnthesoapbox

the chances are we will disagree but at least you allow non theists to post which is something many theists sites are too afraid to do. I will check out the other installments to this one. PB

[returnthesoapbox]

I share the same respect. I allow people to post if they have something to say on point or are conversant.

Let's face it we are tested with multiple choices to believe. Science has just as many unknowns as religion.

Some people just pick one, some go with the flow, some accept what their paresnt give them and some explore and reshape their beliefs.

In truth there can only be one truly right answer, but I think that lays somewhere in a mix of science and religion.

[brengun42]

You're using the Old Tst?

Oh boy,; big mistake.

Here: (Leviticus 21:18-21) "For whatsoever man he be that hath a blemish, he shall not approach: a blind man, or a lame, or he that hath a flat nose, or any thing superfluous, or a man that is brokenfooted, or brokenhanded, Or crookbackt, or a dwarf, or that hath a blemish in his eye, or be scurvy, or scabbed, or hath his stones broken (lol); No man that hath a blemish...shall come nigh to offer the offerings of the LORD...

Epic fail, man

[returnthesoapbox]

Youre right about this passage.

I should explain something to you as you have not watched all the videos yet, but there is only one book of the Old Tetsament that I put faith in. The others are corruptions.

That book is Deuteronomy.

Leviticus was written and maintained by the Kohens and Levis and the prophets teach us these men of temple corrupted teachings.

Besides none of these preists were prophets.

It is forbidden to add a word to that which Mosses wrote before he died.

[brengun42]

You don't know how to argue. Your making many mistakes here; some very bad analogies.

"let others think for you", then you describe teachers and college.

Don't you see how "let others think for you" directly applies to "ministers and churches"?

Wow.

[returnthesoapbox]

Great observation, you are correct and I do see that too.

Watch the whole series and you will find explanations why I don't believe in these institutions either. I am a free thinker.

I will be posting a video today that goes even further towards answering this. It is called the power of prayer and analyzes why people who let others think for them are doing damage to themselves.

[returnthesoapbox]

Well I would like to know what the difference between "God is imaginary" and there being "no God".

You have not watched my videos if you think I am a practicing Christian, yet you want to fight me for being one.

Who is being delusional?

I am blocking you for 3 hours. If you really care, but I said you make the choice and you chose. As I said it would be an illustration of how God gives a choice, I must stick to my word.

You can come back and post a reply after the ban is over.

[pinball1970]

You are missing the point of the video -- it is asking you to question some of the things in the bible and gives some examples of why. The amputee question (which most theists tend to miss the point of completely) is intended to show the power of prayer to be false. There is no grey area with a limb growing back -- a definite before and after scenario. The non-science in the bible is abundant and shows the text to be flawed and most definitely to be written by primitive man.

[returnthesoapbox]

You comment too soon. Watch the other videos. The first video is the least entertaining of the seven.

Tomorrow, I will post the video on the power of prayer. It handles the surrounding questions that are assumed within the amputee question. It answers your question.

Watch the rest of my videos in this series and if you have a strong stomach take my playlist test which is related to a statement.

Believe me I take this in an entirely different direction than you will expect.

[returnthesoapbox]

Last chance to act like a person and learn the art of debating and talking rather than talking crap.

You know you can spend your whole life making the world hate you and in the end you will have a life of being mistreated poorly by everyone you know.

Is this your goal?

Chose now between a blessing or a curse from my "block" button.

See? I can illustrate how God deals with the power of choice in my own mini world which I formed from whirling invisble electrons.

No God, laugable.

[AtheisticReasoner]

Sorry, couldn't bring myself to watch further after you equivocated with the word "critical" you must understand the definition of the word intended by the original person and then stick to that definition. You otherwise are just changing the subject to some irrelevence.
