This video is a mirror.
Atheists aren't that bad. This is NOT an argument for atheism... It's a defense of atheists.

This video received the award for "Excellence in Humanist Communications" from the Harvard University Humanist Chaplaincy.

James Randi said this video was "very cool!"

Michael Shermer said it was "very impressive."

Penn & Teller said, "If a god existed, this video would make him wish he were dead."

Dan Barker (author of "Losing Faith in Faith") said it was "very creative and powerful" and that it "makes a GREAT point!"

Greg Epstein (the Humanist Chaplain of Harvard University) said "it's a wonderful video!"

Stephen Ulh (author of "Imagine No Superstition") said that this video was "just wonderful for the cause of atheism."

David Mills (author of "Atheist Universe") said "I am absolutely addicted to watching this fabulous video, which has almost instantly become a legend in the freethought community. Zak has created the most intellectually and emotionally powerful multimedia presentation I've ever seen endorsing the atheist position. This is a proud moment for all rational-minded people. Atheist books can have wide-reaching influence, but I strongly suspect that Zak's video will influence a much larger audience than any atheist book ever published. The first few times I watched this video, I literally had tears in my eyes by the end. The artistic talent and technical skills required to write and produce this video -- as well as its core message -- have made Zachary Kroger my newest freethought hero. I'm not surprised at the HUGE reaction Zak's video has generated."

This video (among others) was also mentioned in the November 4th New York Times article "God and Man on YouTube."

Nobelief.com said this was "the best video of 2006."

NOTE- It has been brought to my attention that Marlon Brando, Mark Twain, and Susan B. Anthony are not atheists. I looked into it, and my original sources were wrong. Sorry.

Lastly, I am pleased to see how much debate this video has sparked, and I encourage everyone that wants to, to join in. HOWEVER, spamming will not be tolerated. Nor will racist, sexist, or other mean comments. Such behavior is not conducive to good conversations, and users who do not act accordingly will be blocked. If you want to insult people, go somewhere else.

  • aethesists are bad and u should feel bad belive on god faggot or im going to get jagex 2 report u lol noob xD

  • @XxPartlyPkerxX COME AT ME BRO

  • Most of these people identify as agnostics rather than atheists even though the title of the video is "atheist." That's misleading.

  • @BillTheWaterDrinker

    Asimov identified himself as an atheist, as does Chomsky, Crick describes himself as agnostic with a strong inclination towards atheism, Curie was, Dawkins definately is an atheist, Dennett is, Edison was an atheist, or at most a pantheist, etc. Go research the topic.

  • @Ujikaweapon1 go research my reply. I didn't say there were no atheists on that list, I said most (that means greater than 50%) don't/didn't identify as atheists. Even if a few non-atheists were on the list, that would be misleading. And Edison was not an atheist nor a pantheist. He was a deist.

  • @BillTheWaterDrinker The title of this video doesn't matter, you're are missing the point. According to the judeo-christian bible, these people would be fools for rejecting/questioning the christian god. The point of this video is that they are clearly are not fools for doing so.

  • @BillTheWaterDrinker

    Also, Edison was a pantheist. He believed nature and god were identical and rejected notions of a personal god of doctirine. If he was a deist, he would believe a god created nature, which is not what the evidence suggests.

    "What you call God I call Nature, the Supreme intelligence that rules matter." -Thomas Edison
