RU-vid comments are at present disabled in our channel, to the displeasure of some. However, each video has a prominent link to the associated open thread that appears on our blog. In the past we've tried opening up the channel to comments, but we found that a very high number of episodes wound up being flooded with a combination of spam, long winded apologists, and various obscene or misogynistic comments directed at various hosts by people with an axe to grind. This seems to be the nature of RU-vid comment sections, in our experience.
We do moderate the blog, the same way that we moderate chat during the show, as well as comments on our Facebook group. For comment sections that are "officially" associated with our show (and, to a much lesser extent, channels that may give the unintended appearance of being official), we prefer not to play host to straight up ad hominem attacks and bigotry. As a general policy we do not block commenters simply on the basis of disagreement with our point of view. However, we do prefer discussion environments that don't actively chase off more reasonable contributors.

WHAT IS THE ATHEIST EXPERIENCE?
The Atheist Experience is a weekly call-in television show in Austin, Texas geared at a non-atheist audience. The Atheist Experience is produced by the Atheist Community of Austin.
The Atheist Community of Austin is organized as a nonprofit educational corporation to develop and support the atheist community, to provide opportunities for socializing and friendship, to promote secular viewpoints, to encourage positive atheist culture, to defend the first amendment principle of state-church separation, to oppose discrimination against atheists and to work with other organizations in pursuit of common goals.
We define atheism as the lack of belief in gods. This definition also encompasses what most people call agnosticism.

This is so sad to see someone who is wrapped up in their faith so blindly that when they are confronted with the very scripture they believe is perfect, they deny their own scripture and can't realize they're doing it. Some atheist may think that the Christian knows they are telling the truth and he wants to insist on believing it but I will tell you as a former Christian who was this stubborn once before that the reason for this Behavior is because a person of faith truly wants to believe it is all true so they will naturally become mentally defensive and try to find different meaning to the verse or versus so it can once again make sense to them and seem like is still true. I was once a Christian like this and no amount of Confrontation moved me just like this man couldnt be moved but when I decided 2 rewrite how I believed as a Christian I ventured back into the Bible and started reading with an open mind hoping God would personally give me understanding for how I should live as a Christian and believe and the result was I found fallacy error and contradiction of the entire religion just by rereading the New Testament with an open mind. I had nobody to argue with, my common sense kicked in and I broke free of this lie. I feel bad for those who are still in this state of mind who have been confronted like this man was on this video and continue to believe this obviously wrong religion so blindly. This is why religion does to people it poisons their mind. You can even go as far as saying this mentality is like a disease, and to think religious people say that atheism is a disease LOL. Religion is very similar to a drug addiction. Atheism is not something we have to think about in our daily lives because we don't believe somebody's watching our every move, we just live our lives. There is no disease in that.

Fred smoke well since I have a pretty good memory of most of my life even since I was a young child I already know if I should believe someone or not if they should attempt to tell me about myself, or in this case what I believed and why I stand firm on my beliefs. I know myself better than anybody and I'm sure you know yourself better than anyone to. Anything else the person might try to tell me concerning my way of thinking, experoence religion and ultimatelly becoming an atheist it would depend on what they are attempting to teach me to show me I was wrong. If it is about religion I would only believe that if that person provided evidence and it would have to come from many unbiased studies and researches. I would have to find out if these sources are known for being reliable. I do not accept opinions from anybody it would have to be evidence that has been seen first-hand by the researchers or scientist, not any conclusions. I do not choose to believe opinions that come from conclusions. The Original Scriptures from the Holy Bible where written well after the deaths of Jesus and his disciples and because the attributes of Jesus concerning his birth life and death have mythology written all over it along with the fact that the earliest scriptures were written more than a generation after their deaths I have every reason to not believe it. I have been around several thousand Christians in my life having travel all around the United States too many different churches when I was in a boys home that traveled and I have scene the same general attitude buy all the Christians I have seen and I even shared that attitude with them. I have sat thru many sermons where preachers talks about non-believers claiming the scriptures from the Holy Bible are full of errors, and I have heard all the excuses why there are no errors. I believe what the preacher said and I'm sure all of the congregation's that sat through these sermons went along with what he said. So I have seen things from the perspective of a believer and shared this perspective with a thousands of Christians I have sat through church services with. I know what goes through another person's mind when they are presented with a fault in their religion and how a believer deals with these situations because I have seen first-hand what makes a Christian or believer stand firm and I myself was one of those believers.

Bruce Cook I read your story with sadness. Since I became a Christian I have experienced the freedom from sin that I couldn't experience while in the world. When I was an unbeliever...I was constantly angry, rude, sexually immoral, a liar, prideful...., It is evident when you place your faith in Christ He liberates you from the bondage sin put you under. You see it isn't religion God wants you to have....it's faith. A relationship with God exceeds any religious rules, regulations..., I live each day thankful to God for all that I have (not much) but I am content.

@brucecook502 5 лет назад
you dont need to be sad for me, because I ws a very depressed individual almost my entire life, all but the last 8 months when I was a christian. i was abused constantly growing up by both adults and my peers, i ended up getting wrapped up in drug addiction, and no matter how much praying to god/jesus i did it fell on deaf ears. the holy scriptures jesus says "ask and ye shall recieve", "ye have not because ye ask not", "if any of you lack wisdom let him ask of god...and it shall be given". the jesus in the scriptures lied because i have asked for his help to give me strength to overcome these problems for so many years and nothing became of these prayers. and whats funny is it wasnt the lack of answering to the prayers that made me loose faith, it was the contradictions in the new testament concerning the subject of salvation. jesus says in one passage that your righteousness has to exceed the righteousness of the scribes and pharisees to enter heaven, then says faith only and not works, then in james it says that by works a man is justified, not by faith only. that is why i lost faith in christianity to begin with, because it is so obvious that its a false religion. the fallacies, the errors, the broken promises, and not to mention theres absolutely no record that a man ever existed almost 2000 years ago that did the things the new testament says jesus did had ever existed, and jesus completely defied the god of the old testament by attempting to flip judaism on its head because after moses died god told joshua to tell the jews that they were to always follow the law of moses and never turn away from it. a god that knows the future would not tell joshua this if he was going t have jesus come along and provide a new covenant with man. its a false religion my friend, you were seduced by it just like anyone who has ever been seduced by any other religion you would consider false. now since I have been liberated from this life of lies, I have more respect for life, I dont even kill pests that most people wouldnt consider if they became an eye sore, I am far less judgemental of other individuals, although I am extremely prejudice agianst religion itself, i do not discriminate agianst religious individuals unless they commit evils towards thier fellow man, and I can enjoy my life much more fully now that I know some asshole of a god isnt going to send me to hell for enjoying it. i follow the golden rule, and thats all that matters to me. i dont consider anything i do as a sin as long as it doesnt involve harming the wellbeing of another. just worry about yourself, believe me ill be just fine.Peace....

Bruce Cook Absolutely we are told to put our trust in Christ....never in man. In addition aligning with Christ will put the world at odds with you. Christ himself was spit on, beaten, humiliated, went through a whole hell of a lot. Paul was stoned, beaten, etc..., Joseph was sold into slavery by his brothers, imprisoned, falsely accused of rape. The decision to follow Christ is hard. We are never promised a life free of snags, trials, etc..., What we are promised is His love. In terms of your personal experiences I am sorry you experienced that. I too was abused when I was a child. Had a disadvantaged life. My mother did the best she could with the hand she was dealt with. The thing is to always trust God in spite of your circumstances.
@brucecook502
@brucecook502 5 лет назад
yes, christianity tells us to put our faith in him and even worship him, the old testament says to never put any other god before him(god the father) and that there is only one god, yet jesus introduces the trinity concept which was herecy. furthermore, other religions also would want me to put my faith in thier belief system, both religions that are older than christianity, and newer. any individual deeply involved in any particular religion will be thoroughly convinced they believe the one and only truth, and would want to convince me to believe and subscribe to thier faith. i can imagine that you became a christian either because you grew up being taught it was the only true faith, or someone at some point in your life witnessed and convinced you christianity was only only truth. this is the results of living in a culture where christianity dominates as the religion of choice. now if you are living in india, i can imagine you would be trying to push either islam or a hindu religion on me, if you were from asia then buddhism, i think you get the point. i put my faith in jesus for the first 33 years of my life and it did me absolutely no good. so many reasons why i realized jesus was a false god. his broken promises he made in hte gospels to answer my prayers when i asked for strength to overcome a heroin addiction i had for 15 years, never took ":gay tendencies" away from me(i am bisexual) even though i asked him to give me strength to overcome that, and his teachings were inconsistant regarding the doctrine of salvation anyways. Jesus was not a perfect man anyways. just that simple passage where he told 2 of his disciples to go into the next city and steal a colt for him proves he was not without sin, so he was definately no god. to have someone go and take something that belongs to someone else without asking them is what we kow as stealing, and no god can just commit such an act and tells us its not sin when he does it but is for us. im sorry but im not worshipping a thief, adn even the god of the old testament wa sa sinner anyways, he was a child murderer. he killed all the children and babies on the earth when he flooded it in hte noah story, he burned children and baies alive when he destroyed the cities of sodom and gomohrah, he slayed all the first born children of egypt during the last plague. the jews worshipped a false god who was evil in nature anyways, and any religion that spun off judeaism is false right along with it. sorry, im just not practicing religions anymore my friend, they are all false.

Let's not forget the fact of the REAL reason a religious/spiritual person holds onto their belief.

He was at that time head of the Congregation for the Doctrine of the Faith, the successor to the Inquisition. But I admired the wisdom of his retiring. That way, he avoided the absurdity that befell his predecessor, His Holiness John Paul II. Millions of Catholics who "believe" in resurrection for persons of sufficient Holiness, were nevertheless praying that John Paul not die yet. In other words, that this poor sick old man's heavenly reward be delayed for as long as possible. They manifestly knew in their hearts that death is FINAL.

There's an Portuguese author that I love, José Saramago, who wrote a book, I think the title translation to English is The Gospel According Jesus Christ, one of my favorite books ever. In the book (SPOILERS AHEAD) I thingk Saramago found a way more elegant solution to the desert temptation situation than what's in the Bible. First, Jesus is not alone in the desert; God himself is there too, described as a distinct jewish sir. And what Lucifer proposes, not to Jesus, but to God directly, is that he stops his plan to torture and sacrifice his own son as to save humanity from sin. Instead, he would forever cease all evil activities and influence, thus ending the existence of sin and of an enemy to tempt and corrupt the humans. He would accept a humble position in heaven's lines as the lowest of lowest of the foot soldiers, his name not to be even mentioned ever again, forever forfeiting any claims or powers he's ever had as God's second-in-command.

I actually got very surprised when I got in touch with American culture and heard about this event as a mystical experience.

We really need to learn critical thinking before we start school. It's a 'cart before the horse' issue. Before we can learn, we must 'learn how to learn' not just haul around a bunch of manure just because someone said it is good for growing a garden. Critical thinking begins with a self evaluation about all the crap we carry around. It seems there are a lot to people who try to force the horse to push the cart.
