Atheist Ad

I saw a video for an atheist ad contest yesterday, and even though I missed the deadline, I figured I would post a response. It's for a good cause :)

If atheists are to be constant, they must acknowledge the plethora of secular social research that points to the positive effects that various religious beliefs have upon society. If atheism is to remain compatible with science these are things that must be taken into account into atheist critiques of religion.

So I think this add is ineffective on that count, as it essentially implies a positive social or personal effect to the rejection of religious belief.

You really think that if we take religion away, people would suddenly stop doing good?

Please, don't be so presumptuous.

Was that my presumption? No.

My emphasis was rather that the add attaches a positive social or personal effect to the rejection of religious belief, something which sociological research is completely contrary to. In fact religious faith correlates strongly with both physical and emotional resilience, along with increased rates of volunteer work and other such non-obligatory community actions.

This does not of course prove religions or atheism correct. It simply contradicts this ad.

For there is one God and one mediator between God and men, the man Christ Jesus, who gave himself as a ransom for all men

God sacrificed himself to himself for a loophole for the rules that he made in the first place.

The bible is a comedy of failures LOL
