Not really. There are plenty of Intelligent Christians, that contribute to society and science. Times and times again it's been shown that Religious beliefs or lack there off are not related to person's intelligence. It's easier to indoctrinate stupid people, but when you are Indoctrinated from a child and live in a society that supports your delusion, it will stick with you even if you might question it. Many Christians compromise and try to make sense of their beliefs in a way that makes it compatible with scientific discoveries.
Toveri Juri I agree that you can be intelligent and suffer from delusions at the same time however most of the faithful are uneducated and weak minded.
whitepowderbob It's a possibility if you take the whole world into consideration, but I don't really buy it. Certainly not about western society where the level of education is quite high. At least I won't believe it unless is see some statics supporting your claim. If there are, I admit I'm wrong. Same goes for weak mindedness. Sounds rather bitter and to be based more on your gut feeling than reason and scientific evidence.
"Don't be arrogant" 27:00 How come atheists are considered arrogant for thinking that they are a small, ephemeral, insignificant part of the universe while Christians are considered humble for thinking that the ENTIRE UNIVERSE WAS MADE FOR THEM??
Here I am referring to the fundamentalist who do not believe in evolution. I won't get into the modern Christians who have to contend with science not suggesting virgin births or after lifes, and especially no human being the son of a God
Brilliant program, I think this should be shown in all schools all over the world to young children and let them make their own mind up!! Before the religions of the world corrupt their minds
It sounds good at first, but it kinda falls flat. As long as you believe in a single God/Deity, you're not an Atheist. Atheist means "Without Gods". Just believing in one contradicts the term.
Man is the most insane species. He worships an invisible God and slaughters visible nature.... without realizing that this nature he slaughters is the invisible God he worships. _(Hubert Reeves)_
KJCrush The point of the quote is not the definition of atheism; it's the fact that monotheistic followers of one faith fail to apply to their own ideology the skepticism that they direct against other faiths. Essentially, the quote accuses monotheists of hypocricy.
LittleMiss :o you literally sound so ridiculous I never thought there is a person in this world as dumb as you are but here I have found you a buthurt “feminist” 🤦🏻♂️
2:20 - "religious faith discourages independent thought". When I was younger, I questioned God. I asked my mom, "if God made us, then where does God come from? Who made him?" She immediately dismissed this, and said 'we don't ask those kinds of questions. We just know it's a miracle". Looking back, I am angry at this. Religion really does limit knowledge. Had I had the freedom to ask questions, & think about things, I could have been a lot farther than I am today. Now I am 26 & I am finally learning about all the things "we" were told NOT to learn about, or to "not believe", because it "went against God". It's disgusting. And to think how much further society as a while would be, if they were more open-minded & didn't limit themselves due to a religion. So much more could have been learned, taught, advanced, etc. Instead of people saying "God won't allow this".
Ton of Proof the Bible is True Proof Jesus is God from sources outside of the Bible While I'd need a time machine to physically prove His miracles (curing the sick, giving sight to the blind, making the deaf able to hear, and raising people from the dead), the written record is what we have just like any historical matter. You should look into a subject called "historicity." It's the historical verification of the authenticity of literature of every type. Historicity proves the scriptures to be the most accurate documents in the world. Anyhow, here are three proofs of God's existence (who cannot lie). The same logic falls to Lord Jesus with everything God says about Him. (1) There's the case of the blood of Jesus itself. After Jesus was brutally murdered on the cross for you personally (though you have to accept what He did for you) and me, it seeped down into a cave beneath the hill that He was on. Jesus's blood was found, at first it was just suspicion, and it was taken to a testing lab to see what it really was. The men performing the blood tests were Jews (not the biggest fans of Jesus). They concluded that this blood only had 23 chromosomes (autosomes) while the rest of us have 46 chromosomes. This proves the Bible true (yet again) that Jesus was born of the Spirit of God and carried in the womb of a virgin. Additionally, there's the fact that white blood cells can only live for about 2 weeks which proves Jesus is God and that through Him we have eternal life, because His blood is still living! (2) Then there's the fact that there have been numerous crazy people throughout history all claiming to be God and they all died. The difference with Jesus is that He died after having claimed to be God several times, BUT Jesus ALSO rose back to life from the dead! No one else has ever risen back to life that has ever claimed to be God. That alone is worth putting your faith in Lord Jesus for. Are you familiar with psychology? It states that delusions are deeply personal matters and cannot be shared by multiple people. Did you know hundreds of people saw Jesus alive (resurrected and in perfect health) after He was murdered for us so that we could have life through Him? Did you know that at least a dozen people saw Him ascend up into heaven where He said He goes to prepare a place for us and that He will return for us so that we can be with Him for eternity in joy and life? That's called eyewitness testimony and it holds up in courts around the world. (3) Have you ever heard of somatids? Somatids are microscopic energy particles. They are found in all things including humans, animals, fruit, veg, and the sap of plants and also in lifeless organic matter like rocks and ashes. They are apparently indestructible. This is important due to the fact that the First Law of Thermodynamics (Conservation) states that energy is always conserved, it cannot be created or destroyed. In essence, energy can be converted from one form into another. The point of bringing up the first law of thermodynamics is that God (who walked with men on two separate occasions) taught us that He is literally all of existence. Absolutely everything that exists does so due to Him and through Him (somatids prove this). --- Proof the Bible is True Question: Did you know a 2,000 year old Bible prophecy was just fulfilled on September 23rd, 2017? This is a 2,000 year old Bible prophecy (called the Revelation 12 sign) that was fulfilled on September 23rd, 2017. We saw it coming in the sky using modern sky mapping software programs such as Stellarium. Those who were in Israel could see the sign with their very own eyes without the use of optical enhancements. This proves that the Bible is true due to the fact that no man 2,000 years ago could have known this once in forever (forever, not a lifetime) sign would appear. The research has been done and the conclusion is that in all of history this sign has never appeared before and will never appear again. The Revelation 12 sign in Three Minutes: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-0jYgoX4NL7g.html --- Modern Mark of the Beast Technology Proves The Bible True Revelation 13:16-17 16 And he causeth all, both small and great, rich and poor, free and bond, to receive a mark in their right hand, or in their foreheads: 17 And that no man might buy or sell, save he that had the mark, or the name of the beast, or the number of his name. Revelation 14:9-11 9 And the third angel followed them, saying with a loud voice, If any man worship the beast and his image, and receive his mark in his forehead, or in his hand, 10 The same shall drink of the wine of the wrath of God, which is poured out without mixture into the cup of his indignation; and he shall be tormented with fire and brimstone in the presence of the holy angels, and in the presence of the Lamb: 11 And the smoke of their torment ascendeth up for ever and ever: and they have no rest day nor night, who worship the beast and his image, and whosoever receiveth the mark of his name. These 2,000 year old scriptures are today's technology: the Quantum Dot Tattoo that goes in the forehead, the RFID chip that goes in the hand, and the fake vaccine that only changes your DNA. --- First Law of Thermodynamics Literally everything in existence proves God's existence. Just take a quick look at the First Law of Thermodynamics as an example. It states that energy cannot be created nor destroyed, yet here it is. Then we have almighty God, who has walked among men twice now, stating that He literally created everything Himself and that nothing exists except through His sustaining will. --- Pure science and logic proving God's existence in this book: Book: "On Guard: Defending Your Faith with Reason and Precision" by William Lane Craig gives dozens of proofs of God's existence. I'll even buy the book for you if you'd like. This book was a major factor in me realizing my stupid atheist beliefs were totally wrong. There is nothing but proof for God's existence. --- Also, I have a playlist titled "Kent Hovind Creation Seminar" which absolutely tears the theory of evolution (theory means it's not proven) to shreds and shows you why and how God's creation account (created heaven and earth in 6 days and the planet is only 6,000 years old now) is accurate and to be trusted. ru-vid.com/show-UC_AOWkxFtStULmTzijDzr2gplaylists?view_as=subscriber
Hebrew school teaches kids to question authority and ask questions always. That's once religion that does exparte independent thought. I grew up in a church that wanted everyone to read the bible and do our own research instead of taking our minister's word for anything. Some of the statements Dawkins make are a broad sweeping remarks that sound condescending.
I'm a recent atheist inside of a Christian family. I wouldn't say I was ever a solid believer but a skeptic but now as of the past 2 years I am a true atheist. No one in my family knows, it kind of feels like I'm hiding behind enemy lines, but one day when the time is right I will let them all know, I can already hear my mother telling me to return to Jesus
I didn't say he was stupid, I just said he doesn't know anything about philosophy and religion, it's a subject he fundamentally doesn't understand, but he arrogantly thinks he does. He's so dismissive of anything that isn't natural science, as if philosophy is useless. I mean, Ted Haggard sucks just as much, but for entirely different reasons.
For one thing, he has dismissed essentially all of philosophy as a waste of time due to it not being science, but with religion specifically he thinks that the natural sciences can be applied to a religious discussion, which they can't. Religion doesn't treat itself scientifically, in the way that modern science is defined. All of these Evangelicals that try to use modern science to prove their religion, are guilty of the same thing. Basically, he thinks that every argument has to be a scientific argument, when it's just not the case. If he had a debate with William Lane Craig for example, he would get his ass handed to him.
"Dont be arrogant" said a guy who believes in the almighty god who not only chosed humans among other life forms ,but also made us some kind of projection of himself. Wow, that's a whole new level of hypocricy.
Isn't a human being made in the image of god Kuba? Perfect in every way? I'm still having a hard time understanding why we balls up at every turn even though we're perfect. Probably down to free will. Then again; if we are perfect, wouldn't we always choose the right thing to do. Puzzling... Of course we're the special ones. Did you think it was the dolphins? Those suckers can't even start a good war, neither do they have the good sense to be miserable like us.
+ Kuba, True,but I do think Richard Dawkins can come over as being quite preachy,too.Not all religious people are arrogant and push their viiews and some atheists can be just as pushy with theirs.I believe in God but don't push my views on others.

I get what I think about God and his ways not from people, I get it from the Bible. Start with Proverbs ch1, ... ch9.

Well your still getting your belief from people and man because the bible has been rewritten / re translated 1000s of times over thousands of years the bible is no longer the original bible theres not one original left of the first bible.... therefore the current bible is 100% the word of man

We laugh at people who believe the Earth is Flat or that the moon is made out of Cheese. But how is it any more ridiculous in believing that there is an invisible man in the sky who watches everything you do and you must worship him to please him . Worship of such things is really a Delusion. Believing something you can't see or have no evidence of is foolishness.
+Tamera Lewis Mankind has tried to understand God ever since their beginning, thousands of years and no one has come one with the correct way. No religion can claim truth they are just biased viewpoints made long ago. Gravity, love, and life they exist we experience their effects and the impacts they make are clear. But what of God, God is not well defined, there is not one universal view or understanding of who or what God is. Those who claim to know it and say that is it true or either fools or completely mad.
+Tamera Lewis No its not, how come there exists thousands of religions with people having different experiences? Everyone who has had vision or miracles have had very difference experiences of what they saw and heard, which proves that there is no single truth, your religion is not the only truth, you do not have monopoly on god and morals. You are just being pretentious by claiming that you know what god wants and what you think you know is the one and only truth. Its either every religion is right or every religion is wrong. You can't prove that Islam, Buddhism, Judaism are false. Their beliefs are just as real or false as yours.
+Tamera Lewis there is a evidence of gravity, it surrounds us. we can feel it and we can describe it, if we jump we fall down. but there is no such feel for a god. its not like we dont see it.
I grew up wanting to be a scientist, I was the kid that saw Jurassic Park and wanted to be a paleontologist. I watched the Discovery Channel documentaries about dinosaurs, and Stone Age people, and I marveled at how far we’ve come, how ancient the earth is, and I wanted to learn more. I always accepted evolution as being true, it was never a question for me. I didn’t really get into religion until I was fifteen, after my grandma died. After a little study I realized I didn’t like Christianity, so became a Wiccan instead, and I knew I didn’t seriously believe it, it just looked “cool” and “different” and I was in a punk phase. I didn’t take religion seriously until I was raped. After I was raped I had a mental breakdown and ended up in the psych ward, I lost my job and insurance, I needed some kind of counseling so my sister set me up to talk to her pastor who would only see me if I became a member of his church (independent Baptist). I ended up getting baptized. I was in a very vulnerable state and I got pressured into joining a religion. It ended up taking over my life, I was giving them a lot of my money and my time, I was very afraid of hell. After about a year I decided to leave the church and the pastor called me and said he was “afraid for my soul” 😂 It’s been 10 years now, and I’m only now back to a place where religion doesn’t bring me anxiety. After reading the early history of god, and misquoting Jesus, I remembered that the claims christians make aren’t founded in any sort of reality. Jesus and Yahweh are just one more god among many and aren’t worth taking seriously
"You'll find yourself wrong on somethings, and right on somethings. But please in the process don't be arrogant." Ohhhh Ted you sweet, sweet walking sack of contradiction.
When this happens, and it will, but, we will not be the ones with the nukes, it will be because it was prophesied to be. The book of Revelation is a great documentary to give a little insight from for such a time as this. Praying for souls! ❤
"What do you hope to get out of this?" "I've got a lot out of this, I've got faith, ive got trust, I've got belief that there's a person up there stronger than any medical person." "Right. What about a cure though?" Bahaha savage.
Religion, preys on the young minds and the minds of people that are vulnerable, it hijacks the mind and stops human ability for critical thinking. The world will remain in chaos until Religion is fully exposed for its evil and moronic ways.
Back then I used to show hate and emotional conflict to these sort of things, but now, I have never laughed so much in all my life at how people argue over silly things! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣 And the music in this just makes me roll to the floor with laughter!!!!!
+joydivisiongirl He's blind to spiritual matter, and leading you into the ditch. Repent from your rebellion against God Yehveh, believe in Yehveh and His only begotten Son, Jesus Yeshua the Messiah, be born again by the Spirit of God, and let Him open your eyes to the truth.

You may as well threaten us with Santa . Can you not see that this jerk ( the preacher), is a con man ? He has relieved you of your money , you stoopid sap .
His name is Ted Haggard. I kind of feel sorry for him, he was sexually abused by his father's employee as a child and wet the bed until 6th grade. He was a homosexual but suppressed his tendencies due to religion. Watch this video and you will get what I mean: ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-94EnKUJQHI4.html

Since the beginning of the creation of the earth, God sent messengers and with them wrote his massages from God to be a pilgrimage to humans that God is the Creator .. The family of the Prophet Abraham and his descendants chose the children of Israel, all prophets of Isaac and Ishmael to Jacob and the Abbas and Moses and David and Solomon and Jesus Peace be upon him and finally Muhammad peace be upon them .. And every messenger prophet with the book of Zuburr and the Torah the Bible and the Koran and the tablets Moses peace be upon him .. And the Quran that came down on Muhammad peace be upon him .. and prophet after him .. All of them are for one message .. God is the creator of everything ..
23:04 lol. I can only imagine what is running through his head. And "He called my children animals." Don't Christians call themselves the sheep (all too appropriate) of God?
In millons of years into the future, history will state: That early religious humans each believed in the supremacy of their particular gods of worship. Today though as we all clearly understand how our universe formed, back then virtually all of these 4,200 religions and their followers all believed that the universe was the creation of their particular god. Today whilst we enjoy inter planetary communications with other varied forms of intelligent life, we can still joke about the primitive and superstitious beliefs of our ancestors.
Listen Paul DG. MY religion will still be around in a million year's time. Bringing common sense and logic into an argument is really ungentlemanly of you and I can guarantee that my god will be around to 'sort you out.' I suggest you switch off your analytical brain and stop resorting to logical arguments. Let's have a level playing field here.
Keith Williams hahaha no, (your)religion will be shorted to 10% of where it is now, in the 150 years to come. Religion has already shrinked atleast 15% in the last 80 years. Can you realise how fast that is? 80 years out of 10.000 years existence of humans. Why? Thanks to science, we found out what really happens/happened around us. We have internet/tv wich influences people with facts. While in history, everyone was just influenced by religious nonsense around them. Sorry, religion will be mostly gone in next 50 years. I promise you this 'harsh' truth.
No idea which end you're coming from here Joe. I'm a bloody atheist and don't need convincing. You're quite right (I hope,) religion will be gone by then. It could even be sooner...
Keith Williams I think that he probably took your previous reply as verbatim, without realizing that you were actually mocking religion. As you say, lets's ignore critical thinking and place our trust in unfounded superstition. Lol.
I love how Pastor Horrid, or whatever his name is, is like "don't be arrogant." Interesting, Pastor. What is it you think you're acting like? ARROGANT. He's also a gigantic walking hypocrite.
Charles Siong you nailed it. both of those wackos were ready to explode. i guess when you're unsure of who you really are, when other people question the lies that you believe that make you feel better about yourself, it makes you raging mad. gotta love how the ex jew is now a radicalized muslim that was blaming the atheist for his former religion's occupation of palestine. the guy's a hot mess. but he sure did look the part. you can tell he spends as much time in front of the mirror getting down his jihad look, as he does in prayer. if he prays at all. i don't know how he'd ever find the time as much as he's blaming people for the actions of others. "Look how you dress your women?" "I don't dress our women! Our women dress our women." LOL!
God: Creates humans and gives them "free will" God: Damns you to suffer in hell for all of eternity because you don't do exactly what he wants you to do.
@ge st And why did He harden the Pharoah's heart? Because he WANTED his heart to be hardened. After God had repeatedly told him to let the Israelities go, Pharoah stubbonely refuses. So God said "ok fine. Have it YOUR way." The Bible says that theres a way that seems right to men but that way leads to destruction. So God harderned Pharaoh's heart, because the Pharaoh WANTED a hardened heart. He became a reprobate. And it happens even today, when God constitenly warns people to change their ways, yet people don't want to. They want to live their own way. So God hardens their heart only because they WANTED their hearts to be hardened.
That's just one example of how you can see that the Bible was not written by God but by people looking to control the masses, because god was never real
Meaning what? Is secularism based on a fundamental set of principles? If so it's no different than any other ideology, philosophy, or religion in many ways.
When I was a believer I hated him I despised him , my religious comrades and me used to laugh about him being stupid deluded Atheist ........well ....now I am an atheist myself and I think he is one of the most intelligent people in the world , it took me too long to come to this understandings . lol I guess better late then never . My advise to believers : have an open mind, search deeply not just on the surface coz most believers think they know something about science and logic but they know very little .
Nathan El Jesus loves humans. Satan is not human. All can be saved if they love God but those who hate God are going to get it when Daddy comes home...
man, that scene with haggar is like something straight out of a superhero movie. when the villain is brazenly monologuing before the final showdown. the hero tentatively tries to reason with him but the villain remains unshaken and emboldened due to him feeling indestructible .only to be taken down in the end (by meth and a transexual sex worker)
"no true scotsman" There are religious nuts all over the world and they can be extremely dangerous. Moderate people are not dangerous. It's the ones who are so certain about their BS you have to watch out for.
I'm more worried that these kinds of people can be involved in politics, schools, and is the one manipulation doctrine that is legal. Not that I'm saying everyone who believes in some religion doesn't have good intentions, just that their "faith" is irrational and not necessary to have good intentions. Religion is basically making people think they can only be good by having "faith," but we all know scientists, inventors, and critical thinkers are the actual one's pushing man forward, not these myths.
I'll never forget the time when I was only 27...and my grandfather was dying....never seen a family member die before...and it was slow. He was an ex navy man from WW2, he was one of those old guys who was a hard drinking, hard working, real tough old guy, and he had this horrid thing on his back that was killing him and he never sought out medical advice just put up with the pain right until he got the death rattle...towards the end a priest came around to the house and started to pray out loud, granddad sat up and told him in some very colorful language to get the fuck out of my house etc etc...I guess he had seen enough shit to realise that no god would allow things like that to happen and call it part of some grand plan...
27:23 lol The God guy actually insulted Richard Dawkins by injecting the idea of Richards' grandchildren laughing at his life's work! lol He insulted Richard first lol Now that's irrational.

Shortly after that, I find it hilarious where he said "When you age, you'll find that you're right on some things, wrong on other things." This is so obviously rote drivel that Haggard uses when he's "counseling" teenage boys, he loses sight of the fact that he's talking to a man who is probably 20 years his senior (not to mention 120 IQ points higher). I'm a little surprised his next move was not trying to remove Dawkin's jacket and massage his shoulders.
nothing is more dangerous, than a person who clears their concious of their actions by asking for forgiveness from imaginary being. if not regilions turned into cults. What i see is lot of religions turned into cults just to profit received from the followers, whenever money, influence or power.
Imagine life without religion. No nine eleven, no seven seven, no radicalised Islam, no Northern Irish troubles, no centuries of Christian slaughter, no religionist child abuse etc etc.
When I was a kid, I prayed to God for years with no luck. Then I prayed to Santa one time and got my bike that Xmas. I knew Santa wasn't real, so that was a turning point for me...true story LOL
It really shows why people work so hard to indoctrinate kids. They need to instill a *DEEP* love and/or fear of their deity. Because it only takes one little thing for a kid to see things for how they really are, and then it all comes crashing down.
"and if you only read the books I know, and if you only know the scientists I know, than you would be great like me...... well..... Sir" lol.. can't stop laughing :D
The way the fundamentalist Muslim talked is very worrying. Religion is wicked and evil. I really hope that fundamentalism like this will gradually disappear rather than continue to spread.
"I don't communicate an air of superiority over the people because I know so much more.... and if you (did the things I'd done) then you would be great like me" Um. Shall you tell him or shall I?
I know the UK is going to be out of the EU (which i as a Dutch person don't like it. UK should be part of the brotherhood!!) but that's great they do these kind of philosophy. Philosophy is sooo important to think for yourself.
Herman Willems I totally agree, and think that my education is my most prized possesion as it allows me to rationally make descisions and form opinions for myself.
Dawkins - "The world was created billions of years of years ago by an amazing and incredible scientific reaction" Child - "Yeah, but what does Lego taste like?"
One fact is that "all religions started with a claim of a person who said he has talked to God". After that, the followers "chose to believe" and conduct the exercise of "self-hypnosis" by reciting all their believes and hear them over and over until they felt like the real truth! That is why regardless how nonsense a religion is it can survive for thousand of years.
How can you delude yourself and believe that hydrogen and oxygen, electrons and protons, should first produce themselves, then be the source for all other beings, and finally decree the laws that regulate themselves and the rest of the material world?
I go to a catholic school. I'm an atheist. I'd say at least 90% of the people in my grade don't agree or believe in religion. We just piss off the religion teachers by asking them questions they can't answer.
peej squid. You do not seem too sure of yourself. Why go to a catholic school in the first place ?. You must review your ethics as to how to get along with people. If you do not approve of what your teachers believe, then one would expect you to leave the school and float somewhere else or is it for you like a " marriage of convenience where in that school your overall gains are more than you losses!
Carmel Pule' the problem is that children in those schools have no say. The parents send them there and it's their decision whether or not their child stays there.

For charles darwin he should've seen the watseka wonder case involving mary roff and lurancy vennum look into this case this 2 girls will blow you're mind the watseka wonder case was in charles darwin's time.
That pastor looks textbook evil. I get that he is totally pissed off and triggered that Awesome Dawkings attacking his beliefs...but he really looks evil.
This truly is one of the most fascinating concepts I've ever come across. It's unfortunate that in this day and age making a career out of this sort of stuff can be seen inferior to economics, politics, engineering etc. and unsurprisingly so.
true, but that Muslim guy is scary too. As always, it is directed against women in short skirts (thus freed from male dominion and what males forbid and do not forbid and keep women in check), and that the entire world will fall to Allah. According to Jews, it will fall to them; and according to the Christians, to the Christians. God must be pretty stupid or evil to spread such confusion. Except that it isn't God talking but people.
yes, but Jesus had a deep message - he was not American! at the same time I feel much compassion for Americans (not for the American gangsters who plunder and molest the world and kill children - see Iona Craig), but the VULNERABLE (America hates the vulnerable) because they live in the most empty voided existence, a circus society and in the corruption and criminality of Big Business, in the mechanical programming, they are lonely, abandoned, cheated of life, dispossessed, unloved. Every one here is unloved! Only pretending. It is horrible not to be loved. I even cry for the ones I know who have gone to people like this preacher. It is a wound in me. They are helpless, hopeless - where can they go? there is no one to turn to. No one you can respect.
Unfortunenatly the people who should watch this program will never watch it. Maybe one or two. The majority of religious people are stubborn. I gave up hope.
Indeed. It's very frustrating to know that the people who hate Richard Dawkins the most are people who have never heard or read a single word that he has ever said or written.
Zsuzsanna Circleedge because man wants control. so religion is formed with truth and lies working in tandem with the luciferin nwo. God is not religion he is alone the great I AM, there is no one like him. This world is set up at birth for souls to go to hell. True believers know God and his coming is soon.
Not religious people. Religious fundamentalists. They are the ones who bring their beliefs to the extreme and keep their minds closed to other possibilities.
it's not hard work....it's pretty easy making a career out of trashing Christianity..... the hard work would be telling us what atheism has ever done for the betterment of humanity.
There are plenty of irreligious people who do not think "reasonably". People who have murdered/harmed others out of pure rage or jealously. Do not so foolishly think that without religion, the world would be magically better.
yep money and power worshipping is the key to all evil atrocities that occur. they just pretend to the public they are doing it for God when in fact they are trying to avoid prison time
Here are some of my personal favorite highlights of this documentary! _______________________ Deluded Ted Haggard 22:15 Deluded Yousef Al-Khattab 40:10 _______________________ Within these scenes/parts, you will find the juicy bits somewhere. Just keep watching from the time stamps I have marked on this video! 👍
This is one of the best documentaries ever.. I wonder if it could be filmed today in 2024, political correctness has increased the veto on reason, evidence and discussion of ideas.
