On February 15, 2006 CNN premiered a Universism story on Anderson Cooper 360. The following day it ran repeatedly on Headline News. In this memorable piece Universism is called the "Seinfeld of religions." For more information about this rational religion, visit http://universist.org

  • I wonder if CNN would do a story this sarcastic and insulting if the topic were Christianity or Islam? I'm sure they wouldn't. I mean, comparing a religion to "Seinfeld"? Are they kidding? All religions are laughable, and could be compared to sitcoms or other forms of comedy. Virgins getting pregnant, walking on water, rivers turning to blood, plagues of frogs, multi-armed goddesses...I mean, come on!  And why ask a Focus on the Family spokesperson anything at all! They're all Homopobes

  • Yeah, but it's got a cooler name and a ring of power!

see all

  • Humanity....! herp and derp is all I see.....! Stop derping and start doing humanity! America and the middle-east... You derp the most :)

  • religion somehow associates with gods etc.

    Let's say this Univerissm is a belief.

    ok. So Universe is universe with all physical alws n stuff and tehres no gods.

    cool.

    So, what is the point of this?

    Doesn it all go down to comon sense?

    Religons and beliefs exist to gather people together, I.e. make groups. If we appeal to comon sense, then Universism doesnt make sense.

    It is easier to keep yuor damn fucking faith/religion/beliefs to yourself and stop bothering people.

  • Does this religion still exist?

  • The problem is all their potential "followers" have no need for organization. If there was some kind of law saying I needed to join a religion, I might pick this one. But really, what does it offer that say facebook or youtube, does not?

  • No dude, if you understand the bible you understand that the rapture is all about "existing within the twinkling of an eye" or believing yourself to exist within a "dream":  So your religion is simply an un-understood ending point of the Christian faith that is already in place.

  • this is misleading of universalist.

  • this is scary. i'm all for atheist and rationalist being united, but this worries me. while it doesn't seem so bad now, it looks as if it could easily become much worse.

  • How do I join?!!! No hate preaching.  Count me in!

  • 1:22- There is no objective truth? Is that I true statement? Self-defeating argument.

    2:54- Against faith? Letting other people think for you? Does this mean you can't have faith in a traffic light? Self-defeating.

    I just blown this religion out the door!
