@jadyqg12511 Human beings were not created, we evolved slowly over millions of years. You can analyze the DNA of every organism on this planet and show conclusively that they form a 'tree of life.' In other words, species evolve and branch off into new organisms. There is no proof at all that human beings were specially created, look up 'laryngeal nerve' for proof that we were not designed.
@1unnamend That is a meaningless distinction. Agnosticism is the idea that the existence of god (or gods) is unknown. Atheism is the belief that there is no god (or gods). You can simultaneously admit we have no knowledge of the existence of god and believe there is no god. We can't show one way or another if Bigfoot is real, or if UFOs abduct people, or if Santa exists, but we can still disbelieve in them since there is no good reason to believe they exist.
@huxtiblejones Ah, the definition of Agnosticism to me was presented as that there is not enough evidence either way, resulting in the person staying on the fence or in my case not caring. However, an agnostic individual such as myself (my definition of agnostic) would usually have a belief more inclined to the non existence of god, just due to the wrong logic. I think we're on the wrong page here mate :)
I believe in God and Heaven but at points the thoughts of death from a atheists eyes kinda gets me thinking and gets me somewhat scared of a death where were just dead we can't see we can't think we can't feel we can't breathe it scares me at times
Similarly the denial of life after death also brings its inevitable results in this world. When a whole society denies it, all kinds of evils and corruptions become rampant in that society, until eventually it is destroyed.
@Dhalsman Nonsense. You cannot point to one religious nation on Earth which has solved the social ills of modern civilization. Your example of Saudi Arabia is really silly, even with Islamic guidance the country is rife with human rights abuses, subjugation of women, persecution of homosexuals, and in 2002 alone had 85,000 crimes reported. It is childishly naive to believe that fear of punishment and desire for reward after death encourage good behavior. It's just false.
The belief in the Hereafter is a great incentive for people to be responsible and dutiful in their activities.
The people of pre-Islamic Arabia who didn't believe in the hereafter used to indulge freely in gambling, drinking, plundering and murdering. But soon after they accepted the belief in the One God and life after death, they became the most disciplined nation of the world. They gave up their vices, helped each other in hours of need, and settled all their disputes on the basis of justic
And I am still so freaking afraid of death because I WANT TO KNOW WHAT COMES AFTER!
I don't wanna just lie in the grave in an ever-lasting sleep. Even after my grand-grand-children are born, I will still be sleeping. Even after The world has been destroyed, I am still sleeping.
Even after the Universe collapses, and nothing exists anymore, I will still be sleeping. Such a long time...I hate the thought about it. I get depressed sometimes. I WANT AN ANSWER! ;(
@FilmForceStudio well this wont help any but im not religious and i have sat up all night flippin out thinking about stuff like that questioning "what happens after death?" well a few famous people cant think of there names right now, said most likely your brain shuts down where your conciousness comes from and view on everything, and just turns off. you wont know your dead or unconcious. its not a bad view. its just kind of scary to think about. try not thinking about it. :)
OMG - your in my head, i think i love you. im not even joking, seriouly - im just pissed off at all my 'friends' trying to convert me into 'islam' ...
and what ?
So do you atheist's think all paranormal activity is fake?
staubin65 1 week ago
What???? LOL
Everyone thinks im mad when i tell them - we might all just be in some 'aliens' room... we might be someones pet - our whole solar system could be within so much othere things.
God is love so what i have to lose believing in him not in the church but in God? i rather living believing than living in doubts. I guess in some part of an atheist life there will be an opportunity to see beyond what math and sciences can see. Sciences can't even explain "Yawning" so to me the bible have speak more than a scientist can teach me about life. after all you dont need to be smart to be happy.
@deepengrave Is "God" REALLY love? I mean the millions of killings in his name (THE CRUSADES) are obviously an amazing proof that the all loving God would have killings in his name. And um... Yawning has been scientifically described, in multiple ways but they all coincide. And scientists don't teach you about life for one reason and one reason alone, you cover your ears and scream "LALALALALALALAA I CAN'T HEAR YOU LALALALALA" when they try.
@jdandsomevids why do you live asking questions that you won't be able to handle the answer? Why you think we are here? we are not here because we are perfect, we are here because we don't know shit about God and thats why there is a bible that reveal to you all those answers but you need to open your mind and soul to other things that you might not understand and even the sciences can explain. You are an smart guy don't waste that on asking about something that no body can answer even you.
@deepengrave Welcome to the wonderful realm of if you don't speak properly your message will be misconstrued, you call me intelligent then refuse my knowledge all within a singular sentence. We HAVE explained yawning, the crusades DID exist in the name of GOD who SUPPOSEDLY loves all, it contradicts extremely. And you can't use the bible to prove the bible, it's like saying unicorns were real because i wrote a note to someone about them.
I'm sure you're a good person, but as an atheist I don't like your way of thinking. How can you be in a "state of non-existence" when there is no "You"? When you die, the electrical activity in your brain stops. You still exist, only "You" is now an inanimate object. Also, I do not agree that "not being born is being dead" because I think the word "death" implies having been in a state of living.
Based on what I've heard here I think you should consider calling yourself an Agnostic.
I actually agree with your views. We are just matter with the ability of self awareness. Once we transpire, we are no more; perhaps our energy gets recycle back into life in some other form. Who knows? Cheers Dude and more cheers and beers for you.
what you say is so true i just recently converted to atheism from christianity a few months back after i began questioning why i was worshipping a wizard in the sky and a zombie that had a 3 day lag respawn and your video opend my mind but im wondering do you think that somhow we regain a new conciouse after death sort of like reincarnation but without karma that we have been other people in the past but dont know it due to well the memory brain rott or am i just talking bullshit
@hippiedude9 Maybe? I don't know, but I think a better question is this: if we don't remember our past lives, does it really it matter if they ever happened at all? I'd also be curious to see how far down the evolutionary chain such 'spirits' can exist. I mean, are amoebas reincarnated? Viruses? Worms? Small as they may be, they possess the same life as us, what should prevent them?
I completely agree. Life is what you make it. I think that is a major moral difference between Theists (particularly Christians- those are what I know the most about belief wise) and Atheists. Christians believe making the most out of life includes serving God/spreading the word/repressing free will. I believe as a person that my life should be what I want it to be, and I will use my free will in every non-harmful way that I want to. Excellent video.
Ha I used to have a whole family of 2 parents and their kittens.But I sold the kittens and gave the mother to a friend and kept the daddy,Your Egyption Cat in your videos looks god.I can see why Egyptions used to worship them xD
i believe the purpose of life is to live..to keep on living as best we can until death comes to take us back to our previous state of perpetual unconciousness..a state where awarenes does not exist or matters..
I believe after u die u will be forced to watch hello kitty with a bunch of lady boys.
But for realz, I don't see how after you die ur "non existent".. cause for the main fact your body still exists. whether your dead or alive, and i take it that an atheist believe you are your body... so.. basically u still exist ur just dead, and possibly being eaten by maggots. I dunno how human beings can even define what they are to begin with, yet alone what state of existence they are in. Commonality?
@TrantisionerMarin I'm not sure what you mean, once you die and your body rots away, you no longer exist. The root of our consciousness lies in our brain, once the physical organ has vanished, so too will the consciousness it enables.
Perhaps the molecules that comprised your body will continue to exist, but you, in your current form, will not. I can see no conceivable way that our beings could live on after death. It's very wishful thinking.
When I was very young I tried real hard to try to remember what life was like before I was born. All I could remember is complete darkness, no feeling/pain, no sound, no thoughts, nothing. That moment convinced me that the same will be true after I die. I have no problems with that thought because I can't control what happens when I die. No one can. It may not be a happy thought, but when your dead, you won't know the difference anyways. The purpose of life? To enjoy the here and now!
@huxtiblejones True, but people wont be taking you as seriously. However, im glad you cleared up what atheists think and how their mind-set for me. Im glad to see that even though you beileve thats theirs nothing after death you still think of what happenes after you die, even if it may not be in a better place.
I think when it comes to stuff like what happens after death can only be philosophized about. We can look at science and think about what might happen or could happen, but it may be far from the actual truth. Every day should be considered a gift.
When religious people tell you that life would be pointless after death if God didn't exist, just point out the fact that it's based on there reason that they came to that conclusion of relevance. Only one who can comprehend the reason will understand and is capable of accepting what is more likely the truth. Some people can't admit that God is fake because there mind set created a mental God which guides them and allows them to function in this society.
There has to be a god how you think have a heart the power to think some had to make us.
