these guys sound mexican

[Lightning523]

@sarge11375 its actually the same person, with the pitch frequency adjusted from the original voice both times lol

[Morpheus0000]

Funny.. but ultimately puerile and reductionist. There's people who don't want to 'turn on the light' on both sides ...

[Lightning523]

i thought the whole purpose of science was to shine the light on things. I fail to see where science would want to 'stay in the dark'. Feel free to elaborate.

[forger42]

Heh, very good analogy :)

[Lightning523]

thanks!

many people I know didn't get this :P

[celebrationofreason]

Brilliant! Succinct and oh so accurate. Absolutely perfect.

Nicely done!

[DrKillaser]

@UBERxL33T better to say, we become a fertilizer... :D

@Kaileo2

Don't you mean Harley Bikers? If you didn't get the memo, Fag now means an obnoxious biker.

[MrJellyBabiez]

@Segepop Yeah. They have no creator either. -_-

[Kaileo2]

Great vid, but how about removing the "faggot" parts so you don't offend our gay atheist friends? Thanks!

[outofslumber]

LOL.

LOVED IT!!

[thindjinn]

@Morpheus0000 O yea, because I forgot religion answers that question perfectly.

[Segepop]

I was expecting Religion to say "The Dragons are invisible"

[321Carl2000]

Religion would clearly say "The dragons are invisible.", and then science would say "I can't feel them.", etc.

[Jotto999]

A perfect analogy comparing one method of understanding the world with another. One of which is marvelously accurate and useful, the other is primitive superstition that has been more wrong about more things than any other type of ideology in human history.

@Morpheus0000, wow, you said "puerile" and "reductionist". "Puerile?" Have you really looked that word up?

Religion equates having faith as "turning on the light". But having faith means to turn off the questioning mind that tests everything. It means valuing not thinking freely (notice "freely") above thinking freely.

I don't see how turning off our greatest gift in exchange for ready-made answers and a sense of security is "turning on the light"....
