  • This video generalizes all Religious as being the same, and all Atheists as being the same.

  • Nicely done. It's upsetting how twisted thinking with the superstitious/religious equates being religious with being moral. Religion is the true evil of this world b/c it encourages inaccurate variables being responsible for many phenomena.

    Only religion can make good people do bad things (suicide bombings, for example). The belief a person will rise from their death someday and prance around 'heaven' with their past pets, neighbors, murderers who apologize to an unseen actor/deity, etc., but, not a person who did nice acts in this world but couldn't accept a belief for something which has no evidence ...

    Religion has outlived its usefulness and it is impeding true progress and growth toward a healthy and more loving world. It is very embarrassing so much of our world is superstitious with their belief in unseen specters. The fact that the more academically educated have less children at older ages then those who do not value education, personal and world responsibility as much, and are having more children at younger ages is also discouraging.

    At some point, something will have to give b/c the religious right in America (which means Christian) keeps pounding away at logic and encouraging ignorance in the name of a god that doesn't exist. The amount of bigotry and levels of intrusiveness with pushing ideas which have no basis other than a reference to an old book of folklore (the bible) which was written by men (not the would-be hidden spirit in the sky; you know, that one who created a talking snake) thousands of years ago when superstitious and like-minded stories were rampant.

    Religion's role in politics in America is disgusting. When we have individuals who wish to run for president who do not believe in evolution, well, this is a form of insanity, or, at least a massive amount of ignorance. Why aren't we more outraged when we see events like this? Many are very concerned and disgusted by the levels of ignorance and forced, irritatingly high levels of misplaced and misjudged sanctimonious preaching that get time on the air. I am very sick of watching these clueless folks blather on and I wish we'd start ignoring them and focus on how we can be good to one another in absence of any faith-based/superstitious stories.

  • I think this video succeeds in proving many points, and I agree with many of them. However, I think this video ignores too many aspects of religion v. atheism, and it isn't so clear cut.

  • Just finished watching the video, and hack 26 is right. the generalizations in this video hang heavily over any point it may make.
