Atheism vs Religion [RAP BATTLE]

I tried to be as objective as possible with this.

However, the conclusion is that both sectarian religion and atheism close the mind. A better option might be to sincerely seek the truth from self-realised souls... now you just gotta find one =)

If you wanna join in the debate, and you can get to central London tomorrow, we're holding THE LOFT, just off Oxford Street. Come along, 2pm-4pm, Radha Krishna Temple, Soho Street, London. More details on the facebook group yo!

LYRICS:

Hey do you feel like somethings missing from your life?
Yeah but its not God so you can go and take a hike

But don't you ever wonder where did we come from
I know where I came from, I came from my mum

I wish you atheirsts would stop being so sarcastic
I wish religious people would stop being so drastic
I don't need a book to tell me what to believe
Not even a science book?
No I just believe what I see

One day you'l be punished ina flood for your sins
I believe in evolution so I'll grow myself some fins
The devil has caught you, he's captured you brain
at least i don't talk like I'm fu%&ing insane

You gotta be greatful for the things that God has given you
Like rape and murder, and aids and swine flu

Thats the fault of human's cause they got free will
Well I'm gonna use mine to not listen to this schpeel

Religious folks and atheists don't get along so well
I do not believe in God
Then you will go to hell

Man I wish you would stop preaching at me
Well I'm not gonna stop until you believe
What, that there's an invisible man up in the sky?
No, that one day, your body is gonna die

The first teaching of yoga is that we are not the body
Religions just a way to stop peole being naughty
Its for weak minded people who don't know how to be
Well you're not gonna find truth by looking at your TV

I'm not serving anyone, especially not God
But you're cleaning up your dogs sh*% and working at your job
See you gotta serve something and that is your fate
That doesn't prove anything
Hold on just wait

Sir Isaac Newton once created a scale model of the solar system
If you turned a wheel the whole thing rotated, it was really kinda cool... altho now it might seem dated
...anyway
One day one of his friends came round (who was an atheist by the way)

Friend: "ISAAC THATS IMPRESSIVE - HOW LONG DID IT TAKE?"

Isaac: "I didn't create this, it just appeared by chance"

Naturally, his friend wasn't convinced

Isaac: "Thats funny...
You refuse to believe that this model just appeared
Bet you think i'm kinda crazy or at least a little bit wierd
But the great, original solar system floating up in space
You seem to think that it came from no specific place
With no creator and no intelligent design
Tell me how you came to that conclusion in your mind?
You're crazy? you're nuts? you've been smoking a joint?"

Friend: "ok isaac i get your point"

How can atheism close the mind? It has no dogma.

[Deronthe3rd]

my best friend is athiest... and i'm saved!!! what other "lies" u gotta tell me?

[wolf92193]

I'm an atheist and my best friend is a devout catholic. I smell sitcom!

[TheSparringPanther]

@SimplyByDavid On the other hand it has brought alot peace to. Sure it has taken more than it has saved... But religion does bring hope to certain people; having faith in something is a reason to live. Ofcourse Religion started out as a excuse for war making the pope a general who proclaimed war, yet nations could live along side for a certain amount of time because of their religion. Is it realistic? No, not at all, it never will be, but believing in something does bring a certain unity.

[Geokeish]

I like this, although the argument got one sided at the end...

[SanityInAnarchy]

This was fun, and I'd love to see more religious debates in rap battle form, but it does seem like the religious guy gets the last word every time, and with terrible strawmen like "just happened by chance."

But I do love the format, and I'd love to see a collaboration between an atheist and a theist on this, so that the arguments sound as good as the rhymes.

@HedeenJeff First of all, by you calling us a sinner makes us athiest sick, because theres no such thing as sinners in our persepective, we have a mind of our own and we dont follow your philosophy, because it doesnt make sense to us. Unlike you we are not brainwashed like sheep. So dont tell us what you want us to do and live the life you want to, and we do the same like the life we want to and work together instead of brainwashing everyone.

[Atheist961]

@WritingBlind maybe aliens invented religions ..came here a long time ago

[WritingBlind]

@Atheist961 I'm an atheist too, but at least I'm not absolutely fucking retarded enough to think we invented religions. look up anunnaki.

[retrogamerist]

I think some people misunderstand atheism. If your not heads, your tails.
