Atheism means a better world for all

[ellpana]

I'm atheist but I stopped this video in the first few examples. Where are your sources?

[Murri16]

the world would be a better place if every body was a true christian, and the world would be a better world if every body was atheist. It works both ways because every body agrees but it will never happen becase every body cant agree on the same thing

[lewisner]

@Murri16 Since theism is by definition a delusion (holding a belief without evidence or in the face of contradictory evidence) the whole world would be deluded, thus it would NOT be a better place.

[Murri16]

@lewisner soo your saying the world wouldnt be better place if every body was not only christians but also christ like?

[lewisner]

@Murri16 Well at one point jesus said "bring to me all those who do not believe and slay them". I wouldn't want to live in a world full of people like that. Also he was celibate so in one generation the human race would be extinct.

[Murri16]

@lewisner that was a parable, and I said if every body was not only christian but also christ like. So they would all accept him as king, but remember its only a parable

[Dps081393]

Atheist world: No intercourse to risk STD, only stem cell babies & adoption All ppl not serving society must die(old, homeless, terminally ill, etc) to conserve resources Evryone well-educated Who's the janitor, the bus driver? Robots need energy somehow Technology becoming more depended upon. materialistic personality encouraged Technology cared for over family/friends. how do we get organ farms? we unjustly develop & kill babies to grow organs.

society >>> individual

But science is great!

[ayoriceball]

@Dps081393 Do you have any evidence to support your claims?

[Dps081393]

@ayoriceball

Science has no concern for what is safe or "good". science is concerned with finding answers and becoming better, more efficient. do you disagree? those predictions seem like the most efficient an atheist world can become right now

[ayoriceball]

@Dps081393 I can only partially agree with you. Science respects cultural values. If people don't want babies to be farmed, then it doesn't happen. Besides, intercourse is enjoyable, so I think people would rather find cures for STDs rather than completely avoid it. :P

Also, I don't *think* babies (or any humans) need to be farmed to grow organs. But I don't know much about that subject.

[Dps081393]

@ayoriceball

science doesn't respect cultural values. you can be a great scientist and be an anti-Semite. it sounds like you're one of those people that think being scientific and atheistic go hand in hand. and i was wrong about organ farms. apparently it's conducted through your own cell collection

[ayoriceball]

@Dps081393 I don't think you understand. If people want to have intercourse, they'll do it. The only thing that could stop them is the law- and, of course, that can only be changed by the people. So science can do all the research and stuff, but it can't do "whatever it wants to" because The People have to support it in some way.

[Dps081393]

@ayoriceball

that's where the FUTURE comes into play. i believe with an atheistic future comes the want for advancement and if science says something is obsolete, it's obsolete. i believe the majority of people of the future atheist world will not object to what is being done for a better future, seeing as they are more knowledgeable and understanding

[kazikokstai]

MusDza, your video doesn't makes any sense. i wrote bunch of argues for big bang theory rightness, and comment... no confirmation?! alright, christians... poor slaves, whose are trying to hide the truth ... they just can't argue against scientists because they are too enclosed in themselves... um and i should ask one more question (MusDza, for you of course), whi this video allows free commenting, ant your's not? because YOU ARE BIG LIAR.

[MusDza]

So , Atheist you think you are smart i don't think so ,,,i have some questions :

/watch?v=qXUxw7027q4

[scotttebben]

When you accept magical thinking as a baseline for your view on reality (god goggles) then you are especially susceptible to any lie. Faith is gullibility and ignorance void of scientific evidence and analytical thinking. Think for your self or some one will do it for you, to your peril and their benefit. Unfortunately this is not possible for some. To those I give my condolences.

With information so easily available, being ignorant today is by choice.

[scotttebben]

I find that rubbing a rabbits foot is far more reliable than prayer. But of course rabbits are real.

[LordOfHistory]

@zeroempires1

Feel sorry for any oppressed non-believers. Let's not pray for a better future, but instead work for it.

[SonofSivadas]

we're gonna kick some religious ass!!

[daobagua]

Though I like the stats. correlation does NOT prove cause. Perhaps Atheist are smarter and less likely to be criminals because we are better people. Or perhaps, not growing up in poverty or lower class or bad conditions allows for atheism and reduces chance of committing crimes. Whichever, good vid.

[judoisoww]

didn't the original creator of this video get banned from youtube? what happened to that channel?

[clearly]

The concept that without faith you may not wake up every morning is silly. We may NOT wake up. Will someone tell me in simple terms what faith is exactly? I suspect it's something that MAY be or you hope it may be. You cant prove it and cant demonstrate it yet you fool with peoples minds and say they are "lacking". You also discount all other belief systems as wrong or even evil. Come to me with evidence or just be silent,

[ubertuberx5]

This video makes a GREAT point. An intelligent person may have a more difficult time, using faith. Instead of being lead by the spirit, they tend to trust "self" or intellect. The fall of Adam and Eve was (the curse) or to be carnally minded. Ruled by the thoughts and emotions of "self" and not by the spirit. You could say the more intelligent you are the more difficult it may be to "let go" and be ruled by the spirit.

[Greg1965videos]

The world would be a better place if people could unlearn some of the myths and non sense that gets jammed into our brains when we are young. All religion is human- invented by people, the belief in heaven or hell is the ultimate scare tactic to make people comform. We would have less violence, less discrimination, less divorce, less child abuse, less taxes, less confusion if we would dismiss the concept of god and try to live in reality.

[imhood37]

Your table of contents lacks knowledge,That's the people's choice if they want to do well acdemically,saftey wise is based of the countries government foreign policy ,securtity--wise policies,and another thing you didn't post,most of the Christians are secular,hence,in conclusion,these statistics have nothing to do with religion,just ordinary people's decisions.

[filldapmp123]

without the bible thered be no moral code

and if your truely honest with yourself youd realize how much chaos would come

if NOONE believed in god

due to corrpupt mind understanding that there would be no long term consquence only immediate

[ThisIsMyFridge2]

No moral code? Come on! Christians have been breaking your "moral code" for millenia, since the stupid stories were thought up. You think society wouldn't have established their own rules with out religion? How naive.

[o0Hultman0o]

In Sweden 80 percent of the population does not belive in god, still we got a realy low crime rate, and we have one of the best healthcare systems in the world. So if atheism is bad for peoples moral please explain why Sweden is an exception. Same goes for Denmark, Norway, England and so on.

[MasterofDisaster17]

The bible is a horrible moral code

Rape, genocide, murder, slavery, hellfire

[Theclowcard]

I'm proud to be an atheist because I belive in myself ... Atheism will increase the belief of Science that makes the world more advanced in technology and knowledge.

[CanderousXOrdo]

@Theclowcard Is it true that you became an atheist because you know you're going to Hell and want to hope desperately that it isn't true?

[Theclowcard]

First of all, please tell me where "Hell" is located . I would love to visite there someday. Many people told me that Hell is in underground. In fact , what you'll only see is the hot interior of the Earth.

Why are you still using all the convienences created by Science such as internet, cell phones or school supplies ?

If you claim every non-believer of Jesus Christ is going to hell , then what about Buddism, Judaism, Muslim or Islam ?

GET REAL , only Science can save human's lives.

[CanderousXOrdo]

Wow and I expected a logical answer like " Atheism is the default position.any other belief just proves you're a tool who has no individuality from the sweeping force that is organized religion" Or "Underage pseudointellectual Christian who thinks he's intelligent in spite of being lied to his whole life. Man people like you piss me off" I think the last one fits perfectly here since I didn't indicate what my belief is.

[iLOVEidek20]

ummmmm...no im a christian and i dont harrass people! omg!...did yhuu know 95% of statistics are made up on the spot? im not a criminal and i dont kill people...ive never divirced...so sounds like religion isnt hurting the world...:D

[Oliviaeatscake]

it is.

[ihateneveen]

All this sounds like to me is, " the world would be better off if everybody saw things MY WAY"... Somehow when an atheits says this it's ok.

[1tabligh]

God and Empirical Logic.

Matter or God?

Take your choice!

Some brainless scientists regard matter as independent and imagine that it has itself gained this freedom and elaborated the laws that rule over it.

But how can they believe that hydrogen and oxygen, electrons and protons, should first produce themselves, then be the source for all other beings, and finally decree the laws that regulate themselves and the rest of the material world?

NO Pseudo-Scientific Demagoguery!

[nappyhead828828]

this is why i don't let statistics govern what i belive. statistics have a funny way of taking something very complex and making it look very simple.....if you only use statistics as facts, you aren't going to get the full story, much less the true story.

[405TunerZ]

Ok the divorce part was stupid if you dont believe in God or have a religion than what does it matter. As far as crimes thats stupid too where do you think we got the basics on what to do and what not to do. If you guys believe in being schooled and evolution I think you would be living like animals What do animals do kill other animals that invade there space kill for food kill to mate. Thats why God made rules for us so we wouldnt be animals.

[rockwillruletheworld]

athiests are gonna be about half the worlds population one day i hope. it makes sense. we athiests are increasing in numbers and were crawling for everyoen to be athiests but so are christians one day it will meet 50 50 and all war will fly. i just hope common sens beats the rest. 1 of 2 outcomes will occur. christians will brainwash athiests and well shrink and all die or athiests will develope a far advanced way of fighting and well win without breaking a sweat. think about how close we are

[nappyhead828828]

so you want to go to war with the christians? lol

[Oliviaeatscake]

i'l join in (:

[VCthaGOATdunker]

Atheism is better for retards like you sheep. I don't want to live in a world where annoying smartass kids keep pulling my pants about God not existing and proof etc.

[Kroder]

Sheep? Look who's talking. You believe in fairy tales told to you by child molesting priests. And follow the church, religion and the bible blindly! Now who's the real sheep here pal? There is no God, Get over it.

[VCthaGOATdunker]

Hahaha. Talk about living up to your stereotype. For your info, I believed in God all on my own. I wasn't forced into anything, and I sure as hell didn't let any urges to be part of a "cool" group of kids affect my decision.

You are sheep. You're just trying to impress your fellow gay little atheist friends. Face it lad, being an abnoxious atheist cunt is the new "cool" thing to do. All you kids are doing is trying to impress each other. But you don't impress me kid. You get nothing from me.

[Kroder]

I'm not trying to impress anyone. I made this decision long ago before the "internets" was around. Speasking of abnoxious cunts religious freaks fall straight into that catagory. Coming to MY HOUSE and invading MY SPACE to speak to me about THIER GOD. Fuck them, and fuck you.

[VCthaGOATdunker]

Yes you are, just like all you other kids on youtube with the same rhetoric crap. Funny how you claim the same thing I do. You're a hypocrite lol. You do not believe any person can turn religious on his/her own, yet you claim the opposite for atheists. Grow up.

And if you're talking about Jehova witnesses, hahaha. You act like they are terrorists ready to kill you. All you have to do is say no, and it's done. What a fucking overdramatic crybaby you are.

[Kroder]

My point is I shouldn't have to tell them shit. They don't need to come to my house and try to force their shit down my throat. And telling them no. LOL you're a funny guy. Ever try to tell a door-knocking religious freak no? Last time I tried that, they sat there and continued to try to convince me how great their God and religion was. Also, I'm not a kid. Have fun believing in your white-bearded man in the sky there pal. And what's with the cussing? Christians don't cuss! They love everyone!

[VCthaGOATdunker]

It's no diffirent than a tree hugger asking for pennys for their animal rights movement or those people pulling others pants to give money to their charity.

I would have thought that since you're such a tough guy you would say no and close the door on them haha. But nope, you're so mentally weak that you let them attempt to teach about the things you hate most.

Since your life goal is to impress your gaytheist friends. I wouldn't try to tell them about this one kid. They wouldnt be impressed.

[Kroder]

The only mentally weak one here is you. Desperately clinging to "God" to get you through life and it's tough times. The only one trying to impress anyone here is you. Putting everyone down on the "interwebs" that doesn't agree with your opinion.

Typical hypocrite Christian. Can't just do what Jesus did and love everyone. You have to judge everyone instead. Remember pal, "judge not, lest ye be judged." Now, take your pathetic self and go repent for your sins of wrath and pride.

[VCthaGOATdunker]

Oh what's this, putting down God just to spite me? Good job kid, that's the kind of stuff that'll really impress your gaytheist friends man. Good job.

And look at the hypocritical garbage you just wrote. Me judging and insulting everyone?

That's exactly what you and your cool kids do. Look at how mentally weak that is. You can dish it out, but not receive it. It's funny, whenever you give an atheist a taste of his own medicine he becomes a preacher hahahahaha. Thanks for the laughs kid.

[Kroder]

I'm not preaching. Just showing you how much of a hypocrite you are. Don't even follow the rules set forth by your own God. Pathetic really. Truly sad. Funny how you guys can talk about how great your God is but aren't even able to follow the simplest of his rules. You really are a sad little man aren't you?

[VCthaGOATdunker]

Hahaha. Game, set and match. You have nothing left to say in the discussion so now you decide to go preach on me. Listen kid, you out of all people is gonna tell me how to set my moral values? You're a typical atheistic retard. You're just mad that I can play your game as well and won't just submit to your petty insults towards my religion. That's what every atheist does when they get the abuse. They start talking about how our God doesn't want us to do this or that. That way it aint fun eh?

[Kroder]

Listen "kid". I'm not telling you how to do anything nor am I preaching anything. Your God is. Is that so hard to get though your thick skull? I'm not playing a game you are, troll. Why don't you go read your Bible, you know, the book supposedly written by your God? It's his word and his law. You, as a God fearing Christian should obey it to the letter. Pride and wrath or two of the 7 deadly sins. Two of which you are full of, hypocrite. Now go troll somewhere else. I'm done with you.

[VCthaGOATdunker]

Hahaha, for a moronic kid such as yourself who hates religion so much you sure put in a lot of effort to preach to people. Like I said, taking advice about moral values from an atheist is retarded, because atheists ARE retarded hypocrites. You just don't like it when we answer your bullshit back with fire. You're just a bunch of cowardly pussies who can dish it out but can't take it.

You are not "cool" because you're an atheist. You might impress your gay friends, but not me. Now fuck off.

[Kroder]

Troll

[trashedskyline666]

See, what Atheism is, or should be, is people believing in themselves and loved ones and we don't typically have any time to believe in anything. I'm just a little disappointed that even now people are arguing and fighting with each other because of religion, like it always has been outside the internet. And I don't understand that if you're such a Christian you'd be watching this video in the first place.

[VCthaGOATdunker]

Oh but you sure have a lot of time being hypocrites. Like harrasing religious people about their beliefs 24/7. People aren't actually arguing because of religion, people are arguing because of the arrogant, classless retarded atheists who won't stop pulling our pants.

[UnluckyGambler]

its not arrogance that points out the arrogant behavior of theists, it is a clear vision of reality.

and how is harassing theistic beliefs hypocritical? do explain.

[VCthaGOATdunker]

Because you claim religious people harass you morons with their beliefs. You claim any wrong doing done by a religious person is because he/she is religious. If an atheist does it it's not because he's an atheist. You claim religious people are arrogant because they never admit they're wrong, yet you do exactly that.

Yep, hypocritical douchebags that want to be a part of the new coolest thing.

[UnluckyGambler]

you'll never see an atheist banning gay marriage because his non-existent god says being gay is a sin. u will never see an atheist whos pro life. u will never see an atheist killing people who disagree with their beliefs just because they disagree.

religious ppl DO harass us. we're not harassing them. what we do is retaliation, not attack.

ps, by atheists i mean strong atheists, not weak atheists.

[VCthaGOATdunker]

There are plenty of atheists that are against gay marriage and plenty are pro life. Plenty of atheistic mass murderers etc. Nice to see you ignored all my points though.

And how can you harass a person that hasn't harassed you? You make no sense little child. You are way too young for this stuff so just keep your small talk in your "cool club" of atheist kids.

PS, there is no such thing as a strong atheist =)

[UnluckyGambler]

heh... first paragraph, answered if you learn what the term strong atheist means.

second paragraph, religious people started the attack, by forcing their beliefs upon the rest of us. you say ur way is the only right way, we say prove it. you say everyone must do things ur way, and often try to force us to do things ur way, and so we retaliate, by pointing out, with massive evidence and irrefutable logic, that ur ways are stupid. this is the history of the debate.

[Oliviaeatscake]

well said . and there is a term as strong athiests, cause i sure as hell am one of em'

[UnluckyGambler]

strong atheists care about the topic of religion and actively disbelieve in deities. weak atheists either say they dont know or just dont give a damn, theyre commonly called agnostics.

[xXdaveXsuperstarXx]

I'm a Christian. Real Christians are a lot nicer then normal people and they don't swear as much. There are TONS of people who think and say they are Christians when they don't even care about Jesus. Those are the people who make Christians look bad. But they aren't Christians and that's what godless people deny.

[misternewham]

'A world without religion is a world without a prayer was meant as a joke. Its an ambiguous sentence. The phrase you dont have a prayer figuratively means you dont have a chance. To take it literally, you dont have a prayer means no-one will be praying . When attached to the beginning of the sentence, it creates circular logic. The understanding of both meanings enables you to realise that the sentence serves as both a religious and atheist viewpoint from which the humour arises.

[puffadderbite]

whats the name of the song?

[Biankito]

Clubbed to Death if I'm not mistaken, its from The Matrix.

[rrommell1]

if people are using their head right, no one would become atheist.. what a stupid thing to believe there's no God..

[tombombadillo1]

lol... are you saying it is stupid to realise that, seeing that as all but one (if that) religions are untrue, and to not choose one over another, and in fact choose instead to accept theories which have evidence and can be shown through scientific method to be plausable?

[Phantombatman]

Yes, if we use our heads to blow up all unbelievers, and build up religions where Athiests fear to be killed, we might have succes in having none of those Athiests. But only maybe...Maybe your Religion has failed in doing this, or do you belong to those trying to kill nonbelievers and ex-believers?

[DragonflyPR59]

Give Peace a Chance lets give the pink slip to religion.

[ErichoTTA]

How is this possible? Atheists believe that we're all here just because yet their morals are higher? Religious people believe the Universe is collapsing on itself for a reason yet they do bad things? Why? Their lives have purpose.

[AJComixII]

Evidence before your eyes too much to bear, theist?

[digicatt]

LOL Theist can't handle the truth!

[misternewham]

A world without religion is a world without a prayer!

[w0g4life]

well, duuuuuh

[eSilva90]

...but is not like prayers actually work.....

[AJComixII]

Prayer has been shown to not work in

EVERY

SINGLE

EXPERIMENT

DONE

ON

IT.

[Tomanistanumerouno]

So does placebo...

[ubertuberx5]

@AJComixII God, prayer, etc.. will not be proven at this time. "without faith it is impossible to please God"..If you prove it.. you can no longer operate in faith... Instead.. to find answers use... (get ready for it)

.... faith

[AJComixII]

@ubertuberx5 No, wrong, incorrect. To find answers, you observe the world around you, test it, and find evidence. It's called Science, it's a bloody good job we have that. What are you looking at? A monitor, which is displaying a website via your computer and your network connection. Tell me where faith came into the manufacture of any of that. Didn't think so.

[ubertuberx5]

@AJComixII When I was in the 4th grade I had a 9th grade understanding of science. "I get it" Tell me where the idea to build the computer came from? Believing it in your mind before you see it in front of you. less nothing would be build at all. Faith believes before seeing it in the physical.

[ubertuberx5]

@AJComixII People need faith in order to do anything. As simple as going to sleep and waking up. Faith (believing without seeing) says "you will wake in the morning for another day". You don't know that you have another day, but your mind believes you do. The byproduct of this faith is preparing for the next day.. this stuff isn't that tough...

[AJComixII]

@ubertuberx5 *facepalms* You are a delusional fuck. Please don't respond to me anymore, I'd like to retain the only faith I barely have anymore, my increasingly weak faith in humanity.

[VILeonidasV]

@AJComixII don't let this... "delusional fuck" bring your faith in humanity down. This video shows that the world is changing. We are growing, we are developing, Our minds are becoming free. Their will always be weak people and these people will always need their "faith" to stay behind .

The Christians say that the end is near. They couldn't be more correct.

Their end is near

[digicatt]

That's cool, because prayer does not work.

[cm2punk]

a world without out religion is a world without war. hitler, nazis, death, the christian dark ages, hate between countries

Religion is the reason for hate, Atheists just want peace and love is that too much to ask for?

Why is it when catholics see a jew or a muslim they hate them, they want to kill then or send the to a concentration camp?

All us Atheists want is peace and respect between everyone no matter what religion or faith.

[lanastompanato]

Atheism is growing in the US and Europe. Religion is growing in much of the rest of the world due to the disintegration of the Soviet Empire. This has probably been the best decade for religion in terms of growth in numbers in a century.

[BohemianBlasphemy]

I'm not so sure about that.

[ssmith73]

not sure that the growth of religion is correlated with the breakdown of the USSR. Most growth is in third-world economies where the education is poor and times are hard.

[yoda9931]

@lanastompanato The former soviet union doesn't matter, africa doesn't matter, most of south america....doesn't matter. The only places that matter, are the us and europe, they've got the money and power and money and power matter.
