The link to the article talked about in the video has been timed out after more than four years. It was about a conference of Southern Baptist zealots who want to make the United States into a Christian Taliban, a theocratic state in which all independent thought will be squelched. The next step, of course, would be to punish dissent to their "Christian" ideals.
The conference was sponsored by American Vision, what this article called "a radical ministry that toils away to 'help Christians build a truly Biblical worldview,'" Some 800 people attended, representing a number of other groups with similar goals
One of their speakers, Gary North, called for a Taliban-like rule. This is his view of a Christian America:
North has called for the death penalty . . . for youngsters who curse their parents, gays and others who violate his interpretation of biblical law. He has argued that stoning is the preferred means of capital punishment, noting that it is a communal activity and "the implements of execution are available to everyone at virtually no cost."
This conference is really scary. As an atheist, I hear all the time, "Why do you atheists think you have to promote atheism? Why don't you just keep it to yourself?" This conference represents the reason that we go on YouTube and elsewhere to state our views and try to reach the fence-sitters. We know the thoroughly convinced Christians, Muslims and other religionists will not heed anything we say. But there are many who have been disappointed by what they have been taught, and some of them may come to see that the world needs a peaceful secular vision, not a warlike religious one.
Muslims claim that theirs is a religion of peace, while, in the name of Allah, some of them sever the heads of anyone who disagrees with them, and threaten mass violence over a cartoon. The ones who insist they are peaceful seem only rarely to denounce the actions of these killers. Christians claim to represent the "Prince of Peace," yet they wage war on non-Christians in distant lands and promise war on non-Christians in their own.
The only hope for peace in the world is secularism/humanism. I am utterly convinced of that. Atheists and other secular humanists do not threaten anyone. We simply try to fight fanaticism with reason. I fear that we will lose. The religionists are experts at propaganda. They do not hesitate to lie, especially when characterizing the ideas of their dissenters. They play to emotion and not reason. They would (and eventually will, I fear) kill anyone who disagrees with them in any particular.

The above link demonstrates that dominionism is alive and well - and growing. These people are dangerous to freedom.

Ok so I wanted to make a few short videos answering some of the individual things creationists and non believers in evolution often try to use to disprove or discredit it.
The Thing I will be discussing in this video is the question But if evolution is a fact then why is it called the theory of evolution.
The answer to this is relatively simple but it is also easy to be drawn in by people who use this example.
Firstly evolution is not a theory it is a fact, just as gravity is a fact. The theory is the explanation of how the fact takes place.
For instance Einsteins theory of general relativity explains gravity; Gravity is the fact general relativity the theory.
So the theory of evolution by mutation and natural selection refers to the explanation of how evolution takes place, evolution is the fact mutation and natural selection is the theory and the most likely explanation of how evolution takes place.
The people who use this argument simply show their lack of research and understanding of evolution and its theory but hopefully I have answered this question for you and you can simply ignore anyone who makes this statement.
Thanks for listening and please rate and comment
