Double comment time! I couldn't let this debate sit.
Albert Camus said "I would rather go through life believing there is a God to find out there isn't, than go through life NOT believing in God to find out he is real." So, could it not be argued that an atheists main fear, particularly a die-hard atheist, is one of disappointment and failure?
I don't understand you. You can either choose to believe something or you can choose not to. Some people are just more naturally susceptible to it than others. I don't think it's a case of 'some people believe, others don't, that's the way it is' because if it were what would be the point of prosteletysing religions like Christianity, the entire basis of which is to spread 'the Word'. It's entirely about choice and free will, and this is one of the central themes in Abrahamic religions.
I did. I totally decided to get more into it and it's payed dividends.
Yes, there's probably a predetermined mindset some people have that allows them to get into the whole mass conformism thing but I'm fairly confident that beyond that it's an entirely conscious decision at first.
It may be a conscious decision to gain information or investigate something. I mean naturally you feel sceptical about certain things you are told, so you can't help it if you don't believe something. Its the result of your information gathering that lead you to the conclusion of belief or non belief regardless of your will.
You're all wrong - we are basically inhabited by aliens, who will one day come back down and take the chosen ones back to the homeworld. Tom Cruise will be among us.
See what I'm getting at?
Also, without wishing to turn this comment into a forum reply, do you REALLY think you're going to solve this millenia-old problem with a few sentences exchanged over a rather excellent YouTube video? (Two birds with one stone, there.)
I love it when christians talk about hell... without knowing that the notion of "hell" didn't appear until a very late edition of the bible, king janes I believe. And prior to that... the original word that "hell" replaced was in reference to a "garbage dump" outside the limits of a very prominant biblical city...
Shows exactly how much they know about their bible... =)
I wonder why they never taught us this in bible school...
Lets say there is a god of some kind, there is about a one hundred percent chance that not one religion has got it right. Don't you think that god would be more upset with misrepresentation than with people who think for themselves? Don't quote the bible to back your claim this is an argument that can't be countered with holy books. This is the answer to pascals wager.
a rather irrelevant comment, I could say the same about theists/deists, where does god come from? I think it's safe to say no one knows how the universe was made, or what was before it was there, we can speculate, and we might even know one day.
but by all means, stay Ignorant, put your trust in dark age mythology, just don't call us idiots because we know better than to join you
I'm not going to go around disproving every single myth, because Frankly "frank" I don't have the time, there's a lot more religions out there, why don't you disprove them? Unless you believe in every single religion?
It'd almost be better if you ignored the bible... written by man, a decade after Jesus died, contradicts itself on more than one occasion, really if there is any proof in favour of God, the bible is far from being it...
We're not ignoring the fact that there is a bible; we just know enough to see that it makes absolutely no difference.
Example, Some 2000 year old book book says that... I don't know... people who wear denim and cotton at the same time should be stoned to death in the town square. that doesn't make it true or right, just because someone says so.
(by the way, if that claim sounded outlandish, too bad, it's in the bible.)
Christians are just fucked up, seriously, you are just full of paradoxes. You can't even follow the "good book" as it should be.
Atheist understand that life isn't so damn obvious. But we can live with it. And we evolve , we progress through history. Sorry for the expression but you religious people are just so shallow and to be honest fucked up. You take things for granted, thinking life is so damn obivous and easy.
But To be honest. I really don't care if some gets totaly brain washed.
how can you see life as "easy" when you must turn to a "god" that is full of shit. First of all. If you follow god. I have a question. What do you do if your son would work on a sunday? Look it up in the BIBLE what you SHOULD DO, not what you think is moraly right. I guess you don't do that, would you?
and what do you Christians have of god, non! you believe something because it says so in a book? Well it seams some are just too dumb to realize when they are insulting them selfs. Understand, you are a scum, chosing religion instead of science. It Causing wars, conflicts and more shit. It stops free thinking, and just restricts people.
Religion is just a an excuse for, instead of understand that life ISN*T so damn clear, for admitting your incompetence.
Frank just calling people dumb isn't an argument. A more accurate name for Christianity would be Paulism. Do you understand what I am saying or have you not read the bible.

I love the comments you get out of these vids with all the morons who think they know what creationists believe or all the morons who think they can quote random scriptures or ask people to explain babies smiles. I am a christian who DOES beleive in micro-evolution which is the type of evolution that explains said bird flu but to believe in macro takes far more faith than to beleive in a supreme being... somebody argue with me with many curse words...NOW
I got that frigging 9th fret joke stuck in my head in band practice last night. Everyone just kept playing, but stared at me when I busted out laughing in the middle of a song. :)
Almost convincing but obviously contadictory.Just works the other way round in favour of creationists. Guess we're dealing with a whole lot of first time epidemics in the first time of our 250 billion year history..such a shame.
250 billion, are you a creationist? only a creationist can't do maths and tend to be out by a few orders of magnitude when discussing the age of the earth.
protein came before DNA since Archeobacteria (really freaking old bacteria) and other still existing procaryotes don't have DNA, DNA is considered a step up because the whole system just allows for alot more info to be stored and its reproduced in a more controlled and faithful fashion... basically RNA = cassettes. DNA = CD's...
oh, it also considered the "higher system" becuse we use it, and earlier scientists obeyed the classical religious theory that if humanity does it, its the top of the tree... but hey the other way works too...
Yeah, I meant nucleic acids, and wrote amino acids by mistake.
Though it is possible that early reproduction was accomplished by proteins that path was probably a dead end.
Some simple forms of RNA can self replicate and mutate. So I think that the earliest life was more likely to be RNA based, as the soup of support chemicals needed would be simpler.
DNA needs more helper proteins to replicate and was likely a later adaptation.
The code for each protein is contained IN the DNA/RNA system. However, proteins are REQUIRED in order to manufacture DNA. So which came first: proteins or DNA?
HOWEVER the denial of the theory that man and every other species evolved from what originally was an explosion has just as much legitimacy as the claim in itself.
Right, except that a scientific Primal Explosion Theory does not exist. I assume you refer to the Big Bang. It is theorized to have been an expansion from a singularity, not an explosion.
You are the best acoustic rocker AND musical satirist of this generation! I'd go further to say I'm glad you're on the thinker's side, but we know there's no such wit in the right wing camp. Thanks for sharing your talent with us, and humoring us guitarist wannabes.
Kissing up aside, here's the prying question: when I try to play along with your live video, where the fingering looks like what you showed us here, it sounds like Ab. Do you play in a dropped tuning, and if so why?
where is the monkey with the cup? Maybe he could use a tranistional monkey/man with a cup might add proof to what he is whinning about. sounds like a little child.
ok Zimemr, you rock , i love how you took your popular song, and acually gave people what they want ,.. you gave tabs... alotta people wont give up the tabs, (takes the mystery away) but i love it, Thank you, I will learn how to play this

If you look at many of Roy's videos on here, user "av1611truth" has been mass-posting this question about emotions not evolving from dead matter. Just an observation more than anything, but I guess he's casting a wide net to get a good answer?
By denying the Bible you are Fulfilling the Bible, "Knowing this first, that there shall come in the last days scoffers, walking after their own lusts" 2nd Peter 3:3
And here you are, right on cue, scoffing at the truth of evolution and walking after your own lust for power by trying to force your religion on the rest of us.
av1611truth: well, you better not deny the quran then. Or my evolution textbook "Essentials of Physical Anthropology 5th ed." by Jurmain et al, which also says that many people will deny what it teaches about evolution.
I don't think you can in all honesty say that if someone rejects an idea it must be true.
How can you 'prove' something that cannot be ' observed or reproduced ' You were not there "billions of years" ago to observe anything. What you are doing is excercising FAITH. Be honest with yourself!
Unfortunately for you, evolution can and has been observed and reproduced. Every single vegitable and fruit you eat has been artificially evolved with selective breading. And that's just the tip of the iceburg. If you refuse to believe in evolution then you can never honestly take any vaccines for bacterial or viral infections, as evolution is used heavily to develop them.
Harvard Evolutionist Professor of Palentology (study of fossils) Stephen Gould in his book, "Evolution fact and THEORY" states that "There Are NO Transitional Fossils To Observe Antwhere on this planet" But "you are smarter than him ? Go back to sleep gomer!
First of all "Evolution fact and THEORY" is not a book. "Evolution as fact and theory" is a chapter in Gould's book Hen's Teeth and Horses Toes.
Secondly,"There Are NO Transitional Fossils To Observe Antwhere on this planet" is a COMPLETELY made-up quote. You obviously have not read this essay. The chapter is a rebuttal to several creationist claims against evolution.
"The THEORY of Evilution is UNPROVED and UNPROVEABLE WE BELIEVE IT ' ONLY ' BECAUSE THE ALTERNATIVE IS SPECIAL CREATION...." Quote from Sir Arthur Keith ; Author of the Foreword for the book "Origin of Species by means of natural selection, or the preservation of ' FAVORED RACES' " by Charles Darwin (100th Edition).
I told you to look at Ken Millers' video; the one that 1:57:10 long. Learn and understand some stuff and come back and have another crack at it. Right now all the smart people are wondering if there's a reason why you're still breathing cos you keep contributing brain dead matter. So go and have a listen at Ken. He's smarter than you pastor.
You have been educated way beyond your intelligence. I choose to believe in a Supreme Being because the alternative leaves with no conclusion, no first cause , simply no 'why'? no meaning to life's existence. Everything is accidental, no purpose, random chance processes from 'goo' to 'you' by way of the 'zoo'!
@av1611truth: That's nice. There's nothing wrong with believing in God. You know there are many who simply believe that God created the world THROUGH evolution. It would just be nice if you didn't bash people so much.
I am 25 years old.If Jesus is all you say He is, then how is it that the ' world ' judges time through Him. What year are we living in 2007? Why? Because Jesus Christ was born 2007 years ago! How could a myth change history?
Whoa... You know in other countries around the world, it isn't 2007 AD. You need to open your eyes. Not every place in the world uses the Gregorian Calendar, like we do. Your argument is basically, "because most of the people where I live believe it, it must be true!" Not a good stance to take. Most of the people once believed the earth was flat. Did that make it true? No.
Jesus is nothing more than a myth started by scammers to carry out the sting of the millennia - the top dogs larf and snigger all the way to their banks.
I'm one of the many who sent you comments asking for you to post this. Thank you so much! Very comprehensive video tut, and you explained very clearly (I thought)
Great job Mr. Zimmerman. I've listened to it probably 40 times and almost memorized it. If I weren't so "musically challenged" and could play the guitar, I'd try to learn to play this song. I'm going to order a CD once I come to the States. I'm sure my friends will find at least 2 song hilarious: Chickenhawk and CS 101. Great satire.
God's Word the Bible FOUR THOUSAND YEARS AGO stated that the world is round (Isaiah 40:22 hebrew word chuwg---shere) spins on an axis (Job 38:13-14) and hangs on nothig (Job 26:7 --gravity) The Muslim Quran says the Earth is in the shape of an EGG (Surah 79:30) Two seconds into eternity and you'll be the biggest biblebeliever in Hell! Where are you going to spend ETERNITY?
You're 40 years old and you STILL believe in the invisible man. Wow. Never outgrew the need for a security blanket, eh? Still wet the bed too, I suppose. Are you getting counselling for this delusion? Oh, your Priest, Pastor, Parson, Padre told you it's the truth. You haven't been giving them money, have you? You have?? Dickhead.
Good luck spending eternity grovelling to a psychotic S&M god, mate. LOL

I am a christian who DOES beleive in micro-evolution which is the type of evolution that explains said bird flu but to believe in macro takes far more faith than to beleive in a supreme being... somebody argue with me with many curse words...NOW

Almost convincing but obviously contadictory.Just works the other way round in favour of creationists. Guess we're dealing with a whole lot of first time epidemics in the first time of our 250 billion year history..such a shame.

250 billion, are you a creationist? only a creationist can't do maths and tend to be out by a few orders of magnitude when discussing the age of the earth.

protein came before DNA since Archeobacteria (really freaking old bacteria) and other still existing procaryotes don't have DNA, DNA is considered a step up because the whole system just allows for alot more info to be stored and its reproduced in a more controlled and faithful fashion... basically RNA = cassettes. DNA = CD's...
ianvondoom 4 years ago
oh, it also considered the "higher system" becuse we use it, and earlier scientists obeyed the classical religious theory that if humanity does it, its the top of the tree... but hey the other way works too...

RNA isn't made of proteins. It is made of amino acids like DNA is.
Weaseldog2001 4 years ago
Proteins are made of amino acids while DNA is made of nucleotides constisting of a nitrogenous base, the sugar deoxyribose, and a phosphate group.
mcharrison7 4 years ago
Differences between DNA and RNA:
RNA contains the pentose unit B-D-ribose rather than B-2-deoxy-D-ribose (means the sugar contains one less hydroxyl group at postion 2)
The pyrimidine (single ring) bases of RNA are uracil and cytosine rather than thymine and cytosine
RNA is single stranded rather than double stranded
mcharrison7 4 years ago
Ooops, my bad.
Post in haste, repent in leisure...
Weaseldog2001 4 years ago
You were certainly right about RNA not being made of proteins though.
mcharrison7 4 years ago
Yeah, I meant nucleic acids, and wrote amino acids by mistake.
Though it is possible that early reproduction was accomplished by proteins that path was probably a dead end.
Some simple forms of RNA can self replicate and mutate. So I think that the earliest life was more likely to be RNA based, as the soup of support chemicals needed would be simpler.
DNA needs more helper proteins to replicate and was likely a later adaptation.

The code for each protein is contained IN the DNA/RNA system. However, proteins are REQUIRED in order to manufacture DNA. So which came first: proteins or DNA?
av1611truth 4 years ago
Easy answer there. RNA has been shown in the lab to have the capacity of self replication when the appropriate amino acids are present.
So likely, they are all there... :)

denying evolution is completely illogical.
HOWEVER the denial of the theory that man and every other species evolved from what originally was an explosion has just as much legitimacy as the claim in itself.
glemerikai 4 years ago
Right, except that a scientific Primal Explosion Theory does not exist. I assume you refer to the Big Bang. It is theorized to have been an expansion from a singularity, not an explosion.

Hello, Roy!
You are the best acoustic rocker AND musical satirist of this generation! I'd go further to say I'm glad you're on the thinker's side, but we know there's no such wit in the right wing camp. Thanks for sharing your talent with us, and humoring us guitarist wannabes.
Kissing up aside, here's the prying question: when I try to play along with your live video, where the fingering looks like what you showed us here, it sounds like Ab. Do you play in a dropped tuning, and if so why?

Several lines of evidence converge to establish the historical reality of Jesus Christ
(1) the New Testament documents;
(2) ancient Jewish sources;
(3) Roman writings;
(4) early antagonists of Christianity;
(5) the testimony of the patristic writers;
(6) the art of the Roman catacombs;
(7) the impact of Christianity in history. We base Time itself through Christ; B.C. and A.D.

How can you 'prove' something that cannot be ' observed or reproduced ' You were not there "billions of years" ago to observe anything. What you are doing is excercising FAITH. Be honest with yourself!

"How can you 'prove' something that cannot be ' observed or reproduced"
Look at evolution in fruit flies.
And also, next time you get a flue shot ask for last year's batch, because you don't believe things can evolve.
Mojofilter17 4 years ago
Unfortunately for you, evolution can and has been observed and reproduced. Every single vegitable and fruit you eat has been artificially evolved with selective breading. And that's just the tip of the iceburg. If you refuse to believe in evolution then you can never honestly take any vaccines for bacterial or viral infections, as evolution is used heavily to develop them.

Care to share the rest of the Gould quote?

Harvard Evolutionist Professor of Palentology (study of fossils) Stephen Gould in his book, "Evolution fact and THEORY" states that "There Are NO Transitional Fossils To Observe Antwhere on this planet" But "you are smarter than him ? Go back to sleep gomer!
av1611truth 4 years ago
First of all "Evolution fact and THEORY" is not a book. "Evolution as fact and theory" is a chapter in Gould's book Hen's Teeth and Horses Toes.
Secondly,"There Are NO Transitional Fossils To Observe Antwhere on this planet" is a COMPLETELY made-up quote. You obviously have not read this essay. The chapter is a rebuttal to several creationist claims against evolution.
Advice: Do your research before posting.

You have been educated way beyond your intelligence. I choose to believe in a Supreme Being because the alternative leaves with no conclusion, no first cause , simply no 'why'? no meaning to life's existence. Everything is accidental, no purpose, random chance processes from 'goo' to 'you' by way of the 'zoo'!

I am 25 years old.If Jesus is all you say He is, then how is it that the ' world ' judges time through Him. What year are we living in 2007? Why? Because Jesus Christ was born 2007 years ago! How could a myth change history?
av1611truth 4 years ago
Whoa... You know in other countries around the world, it isn't 2007 AD. You need to open your eyes. Not every place in the world uses the Gregorian Calendar, like we do. Your argument is basically, "because most of the people where I live believe it, it must be true!" Not a good stance to take. Most of the people once believed the earth was flat. Did that make it true? No.
