Rant on religion and Review on a debate

This are MY observations on the debate between Sam Harris and Chris Hedges. Like it or not, please make a video response!!

And yes, when I talk too fast, I have problem pronouncing stuff like: 'stop' and 'start', or 'tolerate the intolerance'. Attacking me ONLY on this fact is called Ad Hominem.

And when I said that evolution destroys all its critiques, I don't mean literally. I mean intellectually. I am pointing this out just in case there are idiots out there that wants to use this video to prove that atheists likes to kill all their critiques. People like *ahem* goldengun85 *ahem*.

Very well said.

Thanks :)

I'd like to point out that one can in fact be a Buddhist/Taoist [insert theistic religion here]. Such beliefs as Buddhism and Taoism only become religions when one tries to make them religions. They are more guidelines to living fullfilled lives than anything.

[WeiSein]

True. Perhaps I should have said that it's impossible to combine the monotheistic religions with the other ones.

Starting at about 7:20 this video starts kicking so much ass. That's gotta be the most impassioned talk about the theory of evolution vs. the god hypothesis I've ever heard... great job.

[WeiSein]

Thanks a lot for the compliment :)

..i like that point about plugging each others' holes.

Valid.

@iBegToDiffer * i meant very ILLOGICAL

Hi, good video.

I think the reason why religion cannot be combined or compromised to mix with/ fit into another religion unlike something like.. political ideology- is because our views on the nature of reality are often mutually exclusive! To hold two opposing religious views would be very logical- either there is a heaven and hell or there isn't, either Jesus is the Son of God or he isn't.

You can't expect one to sit on the fence on these kinds of things, or to mix their beliefs w/ others.

[lawlzer2themax]

Well, computer combined images of people - all people in a population - such as an English town, give an average face, which is symmetrical, and is generally considered beautiful. Also people who choose mates regardless of race, are choosing a better mate than if they restrict their choice by race, and so produce better offspring - there are many non-subjective ways to approach this issue, so I tend to agree with the video.

[deeliciousplum]

um...I commend you for your energy, but I have to share just a little note: beauty is probably up there for one of the many top most subjective topics. There may not be a realistic or intelligent method for quantifying ugly and beauty. What is beauty : )
