You know the igniter of the Enlightment and the father of physics , Issac Newton , was a very very pious men. If Newton were alive today, he probably be regconized more as an evangelical christianity than a physicist. Muslims in the 8th century were inspired by the scripture in the koran to conduct science experiments. Less not be hasty and say the absense of practicing a religion equals having a logical and reasonable mind. Many people do irrational things who are not religious.
I think Christianity will die out without the next 3 to 4 generations, at least in the Western world. But religions like Islam aren't going to go anywhere anytime soon.
What makes you think that you are right and everyone else is wrong. Christianity is not evil. Christianity is not holding "your country" down. I AM NOT WEAK, STUPID, SCARED OR BRAINWASHED. I AM NOT MENTALLY RETARDED SO KEEP YOUR INSULTS TO YOURSELF. If you want to do something positive with yourself then get a life and quit spending time trying to turn my 12 year old and others into prejudice and judgmental people. Most words of your speech are hate disguised as opinions. CANT FOOL ME!
I did keep them to myself. Its my fucking video asshole. Did i force you at gun point to watch this shit? no. So fuck off. And your right it is hate speech. I hate religion. You will never hear me deny it.
I'm not sure that the religous people believe in God because they need a set of rules. Religion has been fucked up. Christianity has been turned right-wing and predjudice and extremist Muslims are going crazy but I don't think that means that there is no God.
I believe that Jesus is Lord. But I wouldn't say that I'm religious. Because it's a harsh label really, with lots of shit attached to it. Being religious means laws and homophobia and dreary ceromonies.
Yes, I have read it. And I wont just accept it either. I'm not one of them, not all of us are right-wing, homophobic, got a pole up me arse Catholic shits either. But I've read the Bible more then once. And I've questioned and scrutinized.
"Beloved ones, do not believe every inspired expression, but test the inspired expressions to see whether they originate with God, because many false prophets have gone forth into the world." 1 John 4:1
There's not really a big problem with Islam in the UK, but there's lots of paranoid people in the UK. The British are almost 50% without religion. Religion - % Church of England 22.2 Roman Catholic 9.0 Presbyterian/Church of Scotland 2.4 Methodist 1.8 Other Protestant 2.3 Christian (no denomination) 9.6 Other Christian 0.3 Muslim 3.3 Hindu 1.4 Jewish 0.5 Sikh 0.3 Other Religion 0.6 No religion 45.8
I will assume you do not know what it really means to be homosexual.
Gender, race and impairment all relate to what a person is, whereas homosexuality relates to what a person does
And to your atheist have no morale codes then by all means why do all atheist object to this claim that they do not have an objective moral value of any sort? They say without God they can have morals yet you have just said you do not have morals which does explain alot of how you act
I didnt say i dont have morals. Im saying that I (unlike you) am able to figure out morals without the aid of an ancient text. "Atheism" has no moral codes. That doesnt mean that atheists dont. The only thing you can know for sure that atheists have in common is they dont believe in god. Just because you are so stupid and mentally disturbed to require you to be taught empathy by a book doesnt mean the rest of us are. I dont expect you to understand this concept as it exists outside of dogma.
All sexuality at its core relates to what someone does. So really you prove nothing. Civil rights protect the rights of all people to be and act how they please as long as it does not hurt others. The only way you can justify your hatred of homosexuals would be to prove homosexualities danger to others. (that is of course without using the bible as a reference. In the real world we dont use fairy tales to decide whos right or wrong.)
How does religion deny thought? Have you not heard of ICR (Institute for Creation Research)
What does deny thought is your hate for Christians. A world with your world view would be a militant atheistic world where people would really not care for people. you would be discriminating agianst religious people and here you argue for gay rights and such. Well you sir are a hypocrite in your own world view. full of hate and a passion to hate Christians. I hope one day that you actually grow up.
Wrong. You make so many false assumptions its almost impressive. But then i remember you're an idiot. If religion could keep to itself I would have no problem with it. But it cant. Atheism couldnt be a model for a world order of any kind as it has no Beliefs except 1. and no system of belief or moral codes. How you could accuse me of not caring about people when you support discrimination against gays I'll never know (though its more then likely you're just stupid.)
Ha. I dont know how i didnt notice it before. You ask me to grow up and yet your name is narut0 a take off the name of a show that only 13 year olds watch. So in between faping to furrie hentai ,watching reruns of naruto and updating your myspace page you managed to find the time to come by and tell me to grow up. Youtube is like the hotbed for all stupidity on the internet and you are the proof.
Your videos are very good once you start to get going. Excellent points made here. Sadly, I believe religion will always be around, and will certainly still be here during our lifetime.
I love that quote from TJ. I need to remember that one.
Also, yay hoodie!! I think it's sad that when people die, they look forward to heaven but they don't go there, whether they followed God's rules or not.
morals and ethics evolve. Christians so firmly believe evolution isn't real they can not except in on the philosophical level. You tube will be the dead of Christianity.
religion exploits things about life that are often mysterious and/or sublime. religions exploit the fact that humans need to form social communities and form deep lasting bonds and friendships and then takes all the credit for it! we don't need religion to form those social communities or to have intense experiences. you also brought up the fear of death issue, which religion also takes credit for as being the one and only source of comfort. what a way to control people. fuck the church.
Good thoughts. I respectfully disagree with your views on Buddhism. From my limited understanding Buddhism is about seeking truth and ending suffering.
In the stories Buddha himself talked about seeking your own path, that his path is what he found worked for him.
Buddhism also encourages questioning and skepticism which is one of the things I like about it.
There are some atheistic religions. Atheism/theism just refer to the belief in a god. Buddhism is an atheistic religion because it doesn't demand belief in a god nor does it ever mention it.
I agree. However, I do not argree with the idea of organized religion at all, be it atheistic or not. I have a lot of respect for true Buddhists though.
Yeah, I'm anti-religion too. What I do like about buddhists and hindus is that they don't shove their beliefs down everyone's throat and they don't try to control people and respect other people's opinions. I'd go as far to say that Buddhism is the only "good" religion.
Yeah, I pretty much got into with a bunch of creationist at work the other day. Im pretty much 100% showing them what and how evolution is, and they just kept saying the same things.
The Code of Hammurabi wasn't the first law code. The first law code was the Code of Ur-Nammu. I think you can find something on wikipedia about it.
Ok, now regarding religion. I don't really have the space to elaborate this here but I will say this: religion became very, very vulgar with the start of capitalism. Even more, what is happening now in America - i mean the evangelicals etc - is a kind of... should i say consumerist religion. It's religion deprived of its substance.
Where is logic? When you can describe the beginning of the world with logic, you can claim victory for your world view. I hate atheism videos because they always bunch every theist into a brainwashed group of retards. Some theists are intelligent and clear-thinking. Religion isn't dangerous because of religion. Religion is dangerous when the government or powerful people use it to control the status quo. Therefore, claiming that religion is a disease is false. Mankind is the disease.
Again, you're characterizing every theist. Firstly, you failed to describe my beliefs. This world is based off of something illogical, therefore something illogical must have created it. That is not a fallacy. So until you can prove how the world started, using evidence, my belief is sound. I am also open to the fact that my belief may not be true. This is why atheists are closed-minded. Just because the thought of a higher force is over your head, that is not proof that one does not exist.
"Some theists are intelligent and clear-thinking."
Except when it comes to their religion and/or their theism. That's the one thing that unites all religions and theists: the compartmentalization of their collective brains.
Early man lacked the technology to observe beyond what could be seen. Early man didn't have the telescope to prove heliocentricm or the microscope to prove the existence of bacteria. So early man fabricated stories that satisfactorily answered their questions.
The world isn't flat. It isn't the centre of the universe either. Pi is not 3. Diseases aren't caused by demons. There are people that believe otherwise. These people operate their lives under guidelines that do not describe reality...
...They can even operate yours if they are given enough power. The people who have succumb to religion have the power to vote away people's civil liberties because they are the majority. That disgusts me. The only difference between religion and a controlling parasite bacteria is that religion controls the thoughts while the bacteria controls solely the body. Religion is a curable disease that is disabling many and killing many more. The problem is that a theist needs to decide to cure themself.
Good vid. Hopefully scientific progress, and future worldwide prosperity will act to loosen religion's stranglehold on most of the world's population. If it doesn't i fear we're all fucked...
