i'm really interested in what you have to say. i myself am an atheist. but i DO NOT beleive there is in any way a higher power. so what exactly DO you beleive? do you beleive there is a higher power, you just dont know what it is? Let me know.

Hi nice to meet you. Well first of all, I think I should clear up the position you are asserting for yourself. By the statement "i DO NOT believe..." do you mean to say the same as "i believe there is NOT"? Because, like you, I do not believe there is.  But do I believe there is not? No. And that's the confusion. To NOT believe is passive. To "believe there is NOT" is active. And an active belief deserves support, of which I have none. Does that clarify anything at all?

However, an interesting counter example to my position would be the following:

You say I am wearing a silly magic hat. If I try to touch it, it flies away instantly. If I look in the mirror, it becomes invisible. If I ask for anyone's advice, it uses mind control to make them tell me I'm not wearing a hat. The question now is, do I not believe there is a hat because there isn't evidence, or do I believe there is NOT a hat?

I'm sorry asking you this 'cause it's completly off the topic but have you got a sister called Juliette ?

[notNECESSARILYgod]

No, I do not actually. that was a unique comment, haha.

First, I admire your use of the camera & your words. You are intelligent and have a real gift at hand. Second, I am encouraged by the message underlying your story. You are a seeker. You are a fellow co-existor reaching. But the wrong kind of applied stress can destroy a plant, person...thing. So I urge you to be careful with yur attempt to know and/or explain that which is, to put it politely, a real headache at times.

Now a Q: Wt allows/imposes any kind of continuity in life?

[notNECESSARILYgod]

sorry could you rephrase your question?

[Fated2u]

Nice story of self awareness and the need to know more then you are spoon fed in life from those that think they know better :)

[GodToldMeToHateU]

It was being exposed to different religions which turned me to atheism also. They can't all be right, so maybe none of them are right.

Anyway, welcome to the freethought world and the debate on YT!

ok, answer me one question, where did all physical matter come from ? the 'big bang' doesn't explain anything because matter existed before it exploded and started pushing everything outward. what i'm saying is there is something that exists separately from physical matter, which created matter.

i completely respect you for this

it got me thinking about what i believe, or don't believe. i mean i'm around people who are either intesly christian or people who only mock religion

neither one makes much sense to me

i would love to see more videos, and mayhaps i'll even upload one =]
