Atheist Wisdom - A Nod to the World

Participate Or Be A Triangle

For those who are camera shy: cover your head, or take a video of a sock puppet nodding. It's all in good fun.

Update: Although this started as a tongue-in-cheek response to comments made by GnosticAtheist on my video "The choice was genius [etc]", it grew into something much bigger than that. People use it to acknowledge atheism (a few Christians have posted nods, and I really appreciate that), others to give it a "nod of approval", some just a "friendly nod", and some nod "knowingly". In any case, a nod is recognised as a friendly and non-threatening gesture, and it's easy to produce and upload. I guess that is why this has become such a success, and my heart-felt THANK YOU to everybody who has participated.

Because it has been so successful, I will have to re-think how I am going to deal with these responses. Firstly, I now have WAY too many for even a 10-minute video. Secondly, why should we put limits on a friendly gesture such as this? So I've decided to keep this open ended; there is no "closing date" for submissions.

That means that no matter when you come across this, feel free to post your nod. And whenever I have accumulated enough material to fill a new collation, I'll produce another one. So this will become a series of videos. I shall be starting on the first collation soon.

Once again. THANK YOU to all who participate.

@DawahFilms You did not get the point. As usual.

@Efreeti LOL

Yeah. I seem to have that effect on people sometimes, so it's not just you. This came out of a little conversation I had with a friend somewhere in a comment section. He said something I agreed with so I posted a comment stating, simply, "[nods]". Next thing he comes back with "[nods back]", and it went from there, getting sillier by the comment. Then I thought "heck, why not" and I posted this. Next thing I know, I have hundreds of responses. ROFL.

[Efreeti]

Well alright then. I was thinking this couldn't possibly be serious, but I got this really creepy vibe from you that made me think you were very serious. Also the length of it.

@Efreeti Ok. Let me reply at two different levels:

Level 1: This video was a joke, but somehow it got lots of responses and eventually this culminated in another video I posted containing the "nodding extravaganza". That was great fun.

BUT

Level 2: There are people who have become as dogmatic about "atheism" as they accuse certain religious people of being about their religion. I distance myself from such people. They're idiots.
