God Bless America: How the US is Obsessed with Religion | ENDEVR Documentary 

Stay 💪

@@lisamaryam6176 Of course I was a poor judge of character. That’s the whole point. If I wasn’t brainwashed with religion my whole life I would’ve seen from the start that I deserved more. It’s quite common for girls in these religious groups to have low self esteem and to be ignorant about what a healthy marriage is supposed to look like.

@@lisamaryam6176 Perhaps you should educate yourself about religious trauma and the effects of religious indoctrination of children. You seem to think that everyone is born knowing how to be perfect without any guidance or instruction. I’m glad you’re so perfect. Please enlighten us as to how you got there all on your own 🙄

Glad to hear you made it out. I became an atheist in my 40's as well.

Its all fun and game until the lake of fire comes up 🔥

Not as easy as you would think when a doctor actually tried to tell me that prayers would help pain! Very unethical.

@@jaelynn7575 Oh wow. He should have his license taken away..

🤣🤣👍

mental health care won't help. this is a mania and goes way beyond mental instability.

🤣🤣🤣

Just like how I think all the religious are crackheads. 🤣🤣

I would change your last sentence a little. Life is too short to waste it on an unknown.

I read your account and I think you have made a mistake in what you say. You said...."your friend was raised as a "Mormon". But the rules your friend had to adhere to are NOT in any way the rules of the "Mormon" church. THEY ARE the rules of the Jehovah's Witness church. I refer to........1) knocking on doors 2) did not observe birthdays or holidays.....ie no gifts aceptable.

She was probably Jehovah whiteness

Pretty sure your friend was a Jehovah witness not a Mormon cause Jehovah witnesses knock on peoples doors nor they can't celebrate birthdays and holidays

That's called a Jehovah's Witness, not a Mormon.

Me too! Will the king take us back? Lol

As an American, me too. I keep to myself.

What are you afraid of? Lol

It's a cult lmao

As an American, they scare me more!

Saihan hellee shuu. Love George Carlin.

As an American, this is true.

nah, when you're born in america you ARE the freak show.. :') - an american

It is definitely on the very bottom of countries that I would ever visit.

D.J. Chump and his criminal co-conspirators must go to prison to stop this Collective Schizophrenia that plagues our nation. Schizophrenia - Is a serious mental disorder in which people interpret reality abnormally. MAGA Is A Cult!

@@user-dc9oq2pr6v It is (fighting against abortion, I mean). It's withholding someone from evacuating something from their body that is causing them harm. So many women have died because of it. I guess she doesn't see that.

Ephesians 5:11 And have no fellowship with the unfruitful works of darkness, but rather reprove them.

When you have 300 and some million people there’s bound to be a decent amount of extremists in that group. The majority of people here are not that way.

Greed, gluttony and abuse of freedom.

As an American, you are correct.

Marketing. "You must own these things you don't need in order to survive". Apply that mentality to every idea on every level, and you will understand the American worldview.

"it's so interesting to wonder how it developed that way." It developed from your authoritarian country forcing its will on us. Sure most people in the US are religious, but not like this video portrays. Go to a bar, and you will find people of all faiths having a beer together. I'm an atheist, and it's the extreme left, and right that causes me concern, and they're the ones who scream the loudest.

Crimes goes down when people are treated more nurturing like when Los Angeles Reformers actually started treated drug addicts with respect and compassion. I wish these Cops learned a thing or 2 from the defund the police movement 🤦‍♂️

Lol religion is lower than ever in America. Biggest issue is Gen Z and Alpha iPad kids with severe mental illness and stunted development along with the breakdown of a cohesive society.

Agreed, I'm religious myself but I don't even practice my religion, I don't go to church or anything and seeing america being so obsessed with Christianity, ofc it's gonna fall apart

Separation was to keep the government out of the church, not the church out of government.

@@thegrumpyhorticulturist Separation is separate. Period. How do you manage to twist the concept of separation in your mind to allow church to involve itself in government but not vice versa? Separate is separate. How will you like it when the particular church involved in government is a church (or mosque, etc...) you disapprove of?

@@JENTHINKSO have you read the separation of church and state amendment? Hold on let me grab it for you. Once you read it you'll understand that it's not MY interpretation. It's the actual law.

@@stargazer1405 but they make their discomfort very very very very apparent when you don't.

@@stargazer1405 doesn’t make sense to me to define the line of tolerable religiously motivated thoughts/actions to only be crossed if they are “forcing” people to believe. Instead I draw the line at the hypocrisy of preaching “freedom for all” but attempting to use the strings of democracy to bound non-believers into the same contract of restrictions that their religion places them under. Besides… between that and teaching that the world will be a dark evil place if the people who don’t think like you have freedom? That’s manipulative and as close to “forcing” as is possible for them with the power they hold anyway.

That's "freedom of hipocrisy"

It is not about thought but Truth. What is Truth.

Same in the UK

That’s how it should be in our country where church and state are “separate” but it isn’t. I can’t wait to go to Japan

it gets tiresome really quickly. obama was criticized for including the non-religious in his inaugural speech. it's oppressive and i'm glad i escaped religion.

I'm jealous. You're lucky to live in such an amazing country. Enjoy every moment.

@Shitchlover551 Loving everyone, including the unrepentant, is not condoning anything. What an ego to think it matters if you condone someone else! The Bible does not tell us to judge the sheep from the goats. That isn't our place.

@@jaimesfollyYes, we are to judge sin - how else are we to determine good from evil?

That’s so unfortunate. Sure you’ll find a more partnering American friend eventually.

I consider myself a Protestant, reformist (the American churches need an enlightenment and reform too!) I am sorry for what your friend has become, I really hope for you that one day he will make contact with you again. It seems like he has joined a cult (despite I am careful with judging), hence I also found a lot comfort and support in my faith when I had a lot personal and financial problems, but I always kept my door open for my friends and family and was and still am critical thinking but also try to make bridges with everyone I meet.

The cognitive dissonance is staggering.

My mother's baptist church had to tell the congregation to stop carrying to church (Midwest U.S.) and they lost a huge chunk of their members. It's ridiculous.

Now a non-believer, I've asked my still faithful friends how so many pray for protection only to be slaughtered by the dozens while of all things, at a worship service?! I have yet to get a rational answer. Maybe the ultimate benefactor just isn't there. This has happened at least seven times in the last six years or so here.

To be fair it is a crime there. And she wouldn't have been pulled over if she wasn't speeding.

Well said.

Religions are built upon the SUPERNATURAL Hypothesis. For which there is ZERO VERIFIABLE EVIDENCE. For ANYTHING Supernatural, from ANY culture, and ANY time in Human history. Be it ghost, god or gargoyle .... TRILLIONS of CLAIMS. And the COMBINED VERIFIABLE evidence for any/all claims is ? ZERO. From this TOTALLY UNVERIFIED BEDROCK claim of the Supernatural. Religions are built upon like a magician's ''House of Cards'' When I am asked 'what kind of EVIDENCE' would make me a believer in the Supernatural god claim ? I answer - VERIFIABLE evidence of ANYTHING Supernatural from ANY culture at ANY time in Human history. And THAT becomes the END of the debate. EVERY TIME. Religion teaches people to DENY VERIFIABLE REALITY in favor of Supernatural reality defying self-serving fantasy. FAITH - Belief based upon ZERO verifiable evidence. KNOWLEDGE - Belief SUPPORTED by the verifiable evidence of provable reality Religion before writing at the peak of Hunter Gatherer society was MUCH more cause and effect driven - just like science. Because if your religion is based upon DENIAL of verifiable reality - as a Hunter Gatherer you and your family/tribe become VERY dead, VERY quickly. 100 000 years of Human knowledge stored in the 'Great Celestial Library' where each star had MULTIPLE stories of navigation or morality attached to it. Was WIPED OUT of Human history as 'Pagan Magic'. The loss of accumulated knowledge of medicine, herbs, survival strategies, moral lessons etc would have been CATASTROPHIC to Human societies. The ability to read the 'Celestial Internet' was removed from the common man and made available ONLY to HIGH PRIESTS. Planting crops due to star positioning to show the season was removed from the common man. Making them utterly reliant and SLAVES to the Priesthood. As it is today. Threatened with eternal torture or being shunned from the group if you question the Supernatural Hypothesis and it's COMPLETE LACK OF VERIFIABLE EVIDENCE.

Tis the way it is!

Exactly!

well said, and if you are disabled they hate you even more... you have sinned in your past life, no accountability for genetics

Just like...every other religion. 😅

This is something Christopher Hitches said often and it is SPOT ON. When people believe they have "god on THIER side' they are capable of all types of evil. All "in the name of god".

//but for good people to do evil - that takes religion/ Or money

The irony here, almost everybody outside of the US understands and clearly sees what's up, because for America nothing new under the Sun, they test their ideas on the Minor Asia in between Europe and Russia, and Middle East, and then they apply to their own citizens. I can clearly see the next 20 years for American citizens as a non-American from the outside. Same movie, third show. But this time it wont be fun and games, because Americans are the ones need to wake up first and start to see what their actions did to the World, and leave toxic supremacy and toxic 'nationalism' -whatever the 'original' nation of American's is. We all know the history. We haven't faced school shootings and neither of us home schooled or church schooled.. Both the left and right is extremely toxic in America and I believe they also have fear for standing alone and obsessive for picking sides. But the old good days are fading, in a richest country of the World the citizens started to suffer. And pain is a good teacher. But for a crowded country like America, when everything the social engineering just settled and the buttons pushed to green, it will take looooong journey. And it will be late for many. It's already late. None of USA people are enlightened, awakened. They are either this side or that side living in a box without a true Zen or philosophy. Extremely fearful because of the ignorance and illiteracy ,even the ones who went to 'main character colleges', paranoid, confused, lost and plus greedya and somehow toxicly proud.. America is well dressed, groomed, English speaking Afghanistan. No less no more. And has looooongest way to catch the century starting from re-learning that the Earth is Globe, in the first place. But in my opinion, I believe American Internet lines and websites, even Google filtered for Americans. They may not be able to reach what the rest of the world reaches online.I am almost sure about. There's no other way they can be that isolated and uninformed. Even American tourists are weird like proud fishes just got out of water when they visit around here.

You are so wrong.

Right

This comment is quite difficult to read . Can you repost in your own language so we can understand better? Thanks

Abusers playing the victim is a well-known phenomenon; particularly among wife-beaters for instance (no coincidence, I'm sure)

Yup, she just replaced one crutch with another. The same as the whole 12 steps for Anonymous Alcoholics thing...They are not learning how to resist addiction, they are just replacing it with other addiction by inserting higher power in their life.

Luckily they didn't run you out of town. Some people may call you a "socialist" for believing that your faith is private. If you don't agree with them that greed is good. Hate gives power. That Love means submission to God in the way they do... Then you are an enemy. Luckily you are from Europe and I assume you are white. In America, who you are and how you present yourself is very important. Luckily,, you're European and spared from this culture that we have.

@@jalicea1650 Yes, I'm a white European, but I just don't define myself racially. As for being called a "socialist" that would make me laugh; first of all social-democracy as it exists in Europe is far away from communism (but many Americans just don't understand that), and secondly for a European I'm rather conservative (but in the US I'd still probably be a Democrat). By the way, I do like the U.S. by many aspects, but the excessive influence of religion is not one of them.

@@jfrancobelge You would be in good company with the Democrats who by European politics would be seen as a center right party. In America, we call "social-democracy" basically communism and we conflate the two quite often. I also think it's asinine, but in America the average American can't imagine your policies. Paid Family Leave? Social welfare? Equal rights? Free at the point of service Healthcare?! All of those things are seen as radical and socialist by American conservative standards. Would you have your country adopt more neoliberal, pro-capitalist policies? Like Macron has done in France?

@@jalicea1650 I'm not really involved in politics to start with, but I'm basically a liberal which, by European standards, is being conservative. The leftists on our side of the ocean lean towards marxism, and I'm definitely anti-communist, I'm definitely not a socialist. As Churchill put it in his days, "capitalism is the worst system besides all the others". I think that all in all we have a good balance between the dynamics of capitalist economies and the shield of welfare-oriented societies, "capitalism under control" if you want.

I was raised a catholic but I'm far from being a fanatic. For the most part, it's a religion that does not force you, does not take a percentage of your income, does not keep tabs on you if you missed mass, etc. We have freedoms that I don't see in other religious orgs.

stan your mom honestly

I wish my family isn’t severely Catholic however they are Catholic but it truly saddened my mom when I started distancing myself from catholicism at the age of 11 and now it’s kind of hilarious because I might be a traitor if I turn to paganism which I’m looking into

To pretend as though the US is not a power of unparalleled proportions is to live in denial. and this is coming from a non-American The US is a Hegemon, an empire of empire, the largest our planet has ever seen. I personally dont have much issues with them from a philosophical basis, but it is good to be clear-eyed and see the world as it truly is.

@Dan Trebune even if that's the case, I suppose it reminds us that we're very lucky to have escaped the confined way of thinking that we as most others had in years gone by. I have no doubt that this is a exaggerated case as most documentaries end up being, however it does drive home the point that some people aren't given the freedom to choose their beliefs as they really really should.

@will Derby A prime example of deep routed religion causing more harm than good, however now although it's still very much a contentious topic, it appears to be moving away from religion and more to a political/social issue.

I hate it too. As an American, it's a joke to call our country the land of the free. We just lost our rights as women and we are afraid to go anywhere in public without worrying about getting shot by gun nuts. Our poor kids are probably terrified to go to school and they worry about a school shooter just gunning them down. Our health care is a joke as not many can afford it. A part of me wants to leave America but if I don't stay, I can't make things better for my niece.

"Who do you have there, officer?" "Some looney tune, Chief; she was standing in the street screaming at the sky. We apprehended her for a psych evaluation." "Good. What was he on about? Aliens?" "Uh, she said something about "God" and seemed to think she was talking to him." "She just religious! Apologize to her and let her go!"

@@Livetoeat171 perfect description of atheism right there.

Well, almost all major religions are on this list.

@@tacolover105 yep :/

unfortunately those are the ones that gain the most control

@@tamago8042 yep :/

That's literally the entire selling point of religions/cults lol. That's like saying "don't drive cars without wheels"

You mean religious?

I too believe the separation of church and state should be highly enforced; including getting the spiritual council out of the White House.

Huh? Political beliefs??

Yeah, that’s one of the main reasons the religious right don’t want people to go to college (or go to public schools where they’ll be potentially exposed to people living different kinds of lives). Questions are dangerous to them maintaining their power. (BTW your last sentence has a typo. You either meant to say a president *should* be elected based on their political beliefs, or they should *not* be elected based on religious beliefs. Or at least I assume that’s what you meant based on your previous statements. 🙂)

@@seeker8097 you are correct about the Evilgelicals not wanting their children to be exposed to alternative thoughts and lifestyles; is easier to form and manipulate than one that is open 😞 they truly do themselves and their children are disservice while raising their children in fear of others with different opinions. It's a movement based upon fear and fear leads to hate which brings you to the mess we are in today in America. I personally would love to see an atheist in the White House that would dismiss the religious advisory board and start taxing these mega churches 🤷

Being born outside the deeply violent, bigoted and dysfunctional US is my good fortune.

Me too. In my teenage years I had no idea that the United States has a lot of problems like the broken health care system or the amount of homeless.

@@gabbo13 The US is an abject failure by every measure if social wellbeing. It’s designed to be that way

@@gabbo13 That's such a broad stereotype.

@Führer they have no right to force their ignorant, primitive, superstitious nonsense upon others, nor do they have the right to persecute those who happen to disagree with them.

It is sick-making and scary.

Or Lack of their

No really?

its fine, relax

I'll go one further and say - as a human being this is embarrassing LOL

Yeah, it feels absurd that someone who took up a topic of research, studied deeply and researched that topic, defended her research in front of a collegium of professors, and then just threw it all away. I mean, what?

It's not absurd at all. It's commendable that she has chosen to stand for her beliefs and not bow the knee to the religion of Evolution.

@@Butterfly-xl3qmI don’t know what to tell you, but evolution is a fact. It’s not disputable and there was NOT dinosaurs on Noah’s ark. So I guess standing for your faith means becoming an idiot.

@@Butterfly-xl3qmdeluded

@@Butterfly-xl3qm Evolution has nothing to do with a religion; it's based entirely around evidence, not belief.

Ok 👺
