  • Exactly how I feel, i have to answer to myself, not some god or another I have to second guess. I am happy because of the meaning that gives to my life. So well put, great vid.

  • That was beautiful. And I think that's how a lot of atheists actually feel about their atheism.

  • @gguilford72

    "Don't conflate intelligence with sentience."

    - Could you please quote the part where I did that?!

    Of course they FEEl the same pain.

    If you play the blood violin and you know that you could die, you know what it means to die, you know what your family and friends will feel, you remember the happy times and can imagine what could happen in the future if you would go on with you life.

    An animal can't, it thinks about pain like a computer in "0" & "1" where Pain = don't!

  • @DrVladUs

    Don't conflate intelligence with sentience. I suspect that other animals feel pain to the same degree that humans do.

  • Great series. I was waiting for that, to hear the personal stories of the people of atheist experience.

  • @whiteliketar There is no such thing as un-natural. But if there's a God and it is outside of space and time then therefore that God is un-natural.

  • @whiteliketar

    How do you define 'unnatural'?

  • @aDislikeBot

    The fun part always starts when christians tell you that a person that sins can't call himself christian => only good people are christians. But here is the problem, their definition of good is not as for example the law says... no, even thinking about adultery is a sin! What daes that mean?!

    It means that 95% of non-fundamentalist christians are sinners, who can't call themselve christian... but for statistics =>"We ALL are christians"! Hypocrits. )
