Why Organized Religion makes Absolutely NO Sense 

and power

@shahriarirani8057 WE HAVE A WINNER! Especially those scummy televangelists. Worse than the old "robber barons."

And yet i found a link to the Freedom From Religions gift shop. Whats your point?

You're right. The Mormons have around 120 billion dollars and own 4% of Florida. It's a very successful investment firm which runs a church on the side.

If they weren't organized or rich, would they be more compelling?

Hallelujah you get it! 😏🤣

The bible god is a mass murderer.

And yet sin had taken their lives already

Laughable 🤣

shyt might as well not make human kind at that point if the omnipotent knew it. It seems that yhwh likes to toy with his creation and after the fact gaslight us? Ah, who am I to out human logic on the omnipotent Yhwh. ​@DiscipleOfChrist40

If, as the hymn goes, "A thousand ages in thine sight are like an evening gone", you'd have thought he could have waited what must only be the blink of an eye until virtually everyone was walking around with a smartphone with camera and voice recorder. Yet instead he chooses a remarkably illiterate part of the world (even back then) to reveal himself. It does raise a few suspicions.

It's about faith.

​@deletenow3276 Faith is not a virtue. Belief without evidence does not bring out the best in us.

​@@deletenow3276 Yes, that's the problem. It's about faith.

Logic and reason vs magical thinking and irrational thinking, how could anyone give merit to religious apologists?

All love to you

Actually it is very easy for most, except for one, one's own. Christians look at followers of Zeus and think 'oh they believed that because it was written in text and part of their culture and upbringing but we know that isn't true and can't be true...' All see the wool pulled over other's eyes...even while peering through the wool over their own.

That's because it's a part of their life 🙂

@@carrotbrainYT Part of their life is shite then

"It is incredible how difficult it is for a person to admit that all religions are man-made." Mostly because it is not necessarily true. And to borrow from the "atheist" handbook: you made the claim so the burden of proof is on you. Yet you provided none.

I believe in Jesus and in the Bible i agree that all religions are man made now. But Jesus goal was not to spread an other religion. Jesus spread the revelation of God the Gospel (Good News) His goal was not to teach us to go to a church 1 day each weak. His Goal is to change our Heart.

Hey, just be you man. Try to be a good person., that's all you can do. You are not alone...🖖

Are you in the US by any chance? America is very much an outlier in the developed world, with a religiosity far more akin to the Middle East and Third World than any other advanced nation. Here in Europe nobody gives a toss. In the last UK census the majority of the population declared themselves to be non-religious; and in Scandinavia the percentage of atheists is even higher, religiosity being a distinct minority approaching endangered species status. This is why the rest of the world finds the situation in the States so amusing (and scary). The religious right spouts nonsense about atheists as if atheism is some kind of minority cult...totally oblivious to the fact that as far as the rest of the advanced world is concerned THEY are the minority cult...and outstandingly ignorant. As Marcus Aurelius put it 2000 years ago: - Live a good life. If there are gods and they are just, then they will not care about how devout you have been but will judge you based on the values you have lived by. If there are gods and they are unjust, then you should not care to worship them. And if there are no gods, then you will have lived a good life that will live on in the hearts of your loved ones.

@alfresco8442 L o l Good guess for me, I'm almost too embarrassed to admit it.. I can totally see what you are describing. From the outside, it must be especially concerning considering the power that the United States wields. It is genuinely scary when you think people believe this election carries the weight of biblical proportion for the entire world. If I had to put it in religious terms, we are fighting for the soul of this country.. The funny part if ,you can consider it funny ,a portion of the people think Donald Trump is the savior. Probably an equal portion think he is the anti Christ. I think at least I hope most people know the truth. The guy is a con artist and a fool... The world is watching. Wish us luck!

@@SenaYila Only because religion and science are incompatible. Religion wants you to stay ignorant about everything besides religion..

Please watch and share with others my four brief videos in which I present examples of scientific facts contained in the Bible, facts that the writers thousands of years ago could not have been aware of without divine knowledge given to them by Jesus Christ / The God of the Bible. And today's scientists agree with those facts!

@@thetruthaboutscienceandgod6921 Those who believe in “Holy books” keep saying that their book is the best. I read a few of those, studied Mathematics, History, Philosophy, Chemistry, biology, Sociology, Psychology, Geology, Literature, and other painstakingly, community-built knowledge heritages that took centuries to build, read literally more than a thousand books and hold three different University degrees. If the “Holy books” didn’t exist, it wouldn’t make a difference a to me. So, I would expect to be wasting my time viewing your videos. But if you want to share your views here, I would love to have an honest and respectful conversation.

I'm sorry about your depressed life, but you've chosen this empty path by rejecting your creator 🤡So you just pay the price from now on

@@user-sc8ph2ds2m I sometimes wonder if the difficulty to interpret written text has something to do with some people’s fascination with such an uninteresting book as the bible. @lilitheden748 didn’t say she was depressed, quite the opposite. Try reading again. Is that a Clown face next to "your creator"?

A silicon-based life form would be a thing to behold. Of course there's tons of carbon in the dirt today, because of humus, but that's because of millions of years of death and decay. I'm not sure how that works in a world where vegetation has only just been created.

Was your thinking that obtuse when you read childrens literature or Aesops Fables, or when you and your friends played make believe and developed most of the skills you now possess? Imagination and creativity are both higher modes of learning than is intellect, so dont disparage them until youve learned the power of them.

@@alfresco8442 Vegetation was never " only just created " and nobody would take that literally. Vegetation evolved just like everything else. Another example of taking the Bible literally and assuming that others are equally stupid.

@@irenehartlmayr8369 If the religious accept evolution then they're going to have to point to which Homo habilis or Homo erectus God set a test for. Because there is no sin involved in simply evolving. And without original sin Christianity doesn't have a leg to stand on. No original sin equals no need for any redeemer of or saviour from that sin. It follows that Jesus was either lying/delusional, has been misreported...or is a complete fiction. Be careful before you start throwing terms like 'stupid' around; they might just boomerang.

@@irenehartlmayr8369 Be very careful about throwing around terms like 'stupid' they might just come back to bite you. For a start, millions of people in US cults indeed take the Bible entirely literally, so your claim that nobody does is patent nonsense. However, if the religious do accept evolution and the non-literality of the Bible, then they're going to have to give evidence for exactly which Homo habilis or Homo erectus God set the same test for that he set for Eve. There's nothing inherently sinful in simply evolving. And without original sin...and the need for a redeemer of it and saviour from it, Christianity falls apart at the seams.

Correct! Prayer is the unfortunate recrudescence in the adult of the mother-infantile pathways of supplication. Instead, TAKE ACTION.

Yes a prayer is like a wish a hope a desire. Sometimes your hopes wishes and disires come true. Probably not from a supernatural force. Usually because of hard work and dedication..

You have to be bat-shit crazy to pray.

Prayer is not a way to ask God to fix all your problems. It is a way to talk to him, and grow closer to him.

Beautifully put

So wrong to the core. You have not got the helicopter vantage point. It's a cross discipline that makes knowing possible. And knowing the highest truth cannot be written here in comments run by a perverted philosophy company.

In a way, math is a language of it´s own. The epic of nature is written in it.

Ricky Gervais put that a slightly different way. I'm not sure whether he borrowed the example from someone else. He said that if all religious texts and knowledge of those religions was expunged today, then they'd be gone forever. Which is not to say other completely different religions might not pop up in their place, If, however, you did the same thing with science and science books, then a thousand years from now we'd be right back where we are.

@@alfresco8442 He did express that thought and I concur with his view. What one believes, no matter how sincerely, won’t change what happens when you jump off a cliff. Belief in unassisted human flight is still destined for disappointment.

Your issues wont get resolved just because you delusionally "believed" or were misled, or believing something doesnt solve the problemor make it real, that would be delusional, if someone loves the idea they can shut up and keep to themselves andnot shove it down people throats because not everyone likes it. Thats how religion happened in nutshell anyway they were bunch of people who "believed" and shoved it down people throats, forcefully included if not especially but it sucks for them information is shared faster and more than ever and they can decide, anyway the religion crumbles once information spreads which they actively prevented since they had control now they dont, another bussiness down i guess, i dont like supporting someone bussiness like religion i dunno how about others.

@@living_redefined I've been there too, and i can tell you he's telling the truth

Maybe you are right and maybe you are wrong. How did you come to that conclusion?

@@vincentasks Evidence. That's what it suggests as the Most-Likely Probability. If Consciousness were genuinely intrinsically & inseparably linked to some sort of incorporeal metaphysical existence that continues on into an 'afterlife' upon death, then it would stand to reason (at least according to Most Religious & Spiritual Ideologies) that it Could NOT Be Directly Affected or Influenced by any Known Physical Means. And yet we Repeatedly & Consistently see the Exact Opposite being the case. We can put ourselves into temporary dreamless comas, a state of Complete LACK of Consciousness, purely for the sake of avoiding gruesome pain in operation, only to be pulled right back out; all done through Phsyical Means (via Chemical Anasthesia). We also know for a fact that things like Personality, Feelings/Emotions, and Memories (the very things that make us who we are, that shaped us uniquely & individually into the Present Us) are Directly-Linked to Physical Neurons in our Brains. Hence why Damage, Injury, Trauma, or Disease (such as any Brain-Damage, or Alzheimer's, Amnesia, and many other things) can Literally and Permanently CHANGE A Person's Whole Identity (depending on What, and How Much, gets irreparably damaged) entirely without their choice in the matter. Even the MOST Important People, Things, and Concepts in your Life... can Easily Be Forever Lost to your Mind, IF the proper Neuronal-Cells get damaged enough. And that's effectively just only the Tip of this particular Iceberg of Evidence. Nor is that getting into the relative (and Almost Complete) Lack of Evidence for the counter-side of this subject.

I am not religious but I wouldn't jump to conclusions. What you say could be true, but so could reincarnation. You never know and you shouldn't care. Just be a good human, improve yourself and enjoy life. Focus on things that you can change.

You got that right, if it makes dollars it makes sense...

That’s a good point, but I think it is also important to consider that if a religious person treats someone wrongly because they believe themselves to be superior, they are a hypocrite, and don’t really follow their religious texts. For example, Christian’s are taught to love thy neighbour, so if that are treating someone who is not religious as inferior, they are not following their religion properly, and that is not the fault of that religion or God but the fault of that individual.

You don't know what religion is then. Organized groups have existed well before religion became a thing.

I see a lot of evidence that what you describe is what atheists do. They will often say they use logic, rationality, evidence, etc. acting as if they are the only ones (or worse, acting as if they actually do when they don’t). There are many including Gervais who will say an adult believing in a god “is embarassing” which conveys superiority and arrogance and treating people badly because he thinks he is better. And he is not the only atheist who conveys things like this. I think what you find is that you just stated one in a long line of connections between atheists and theists, not a differentiation.

@@tjones5719 I guess you have a point there, yes the arrogance and air of superiority that some atheists have is pretty off-putting, I'll agree with that!

What you are describing has nothing to do with religion and everything to do with humanity. Peoples attacks on religion are as misinformed as peoples' faulty interpretations of religion.

Beautiful? What?

Religion is made for weak people to cope from life problems but it's totally delusional system

But people who are well versed in religions have better minds and show respect to everyone, unlike the atheists taking stuff for granted or making groups like LGBTQ+

@@jeevang750show me any Christian fundamentalist group who shows respect to ANYONE who doesn’t believe like them. They are trying to force their arcane beliefs on everyone else. They are the haters. They are free to live their lives but they are NOT free to control others. Also please explain why organized western religions have the highest percentage of sexual assault and domestic violence crimes of any group. Definitely not quality individuals.

That is, without doubt, the most retarded analogy in the history of humanity. It's not even accurate in a literal sense, let alone in its complete lack of intelligence or understanding. But I guess it allowed you to satisfy your obsession with fecal matters.

True mystics come to realize that we are all God in that our consciousness is beyond matter and never dies being continually reborn throughout all the ages, and that consequently to imagine an outside deity existing in the heavens is fond and vainly imagined, just like worshipping a Eucharistic wafer displayed in a monstrance at Benediction.

Justifying the control of religions would certainly be helped if the true nature of many of them was exposed. The people behind many religions were identified by Plato as Sophists and in his Protagoras dialogue they are described this way:" “Now the art of the Sophist is, as I believe, of great antiquity; but in ancient times those who practiced it, fearing this odium, veiled and disguised themselves under various names, some under that of poets, as Homer, Hesiod, and Simonides, some, of hierophants and prophets, as Orpheus and Musaeus, and some, as I observe, even under the name of gymnastic‐ masters, like Iccus of Tarentum, or the more recently celebrated Herodicus, now of Selymbria and formerly of Megara, who is a first‐rate Sophist. Your own Agathocles pretended to be a musician, but was really an eminent Sophist; also Pythocleides the Cean; and there were many others; and all of them, as I was saying, adopted these arts as veils or disguises because they were afraid of the odium which they would incur.” These conmen employ a form of allegory that works very much like a code and it is used to conceal their true intentions. In Plato's Theaetetus, the Sophist Protagoras is even described this way: “In the name of the Graces, what an almighty wise man Protagoras must have been! He spoke these things in a parable to the common herd, like you and me, but told the truth, his Truth, in secret to his own disciples.” And this description is "mirrored" in the Gospel of Mark 4:32-33: "With many similar parables Jesus spoke the word to them, as much as they could understand. He did not say anything to them without using a parable. But when he was alone with his own disciples, he explained everything." The supposed savior of mankind should have no reason to conceal the meaning of his words, but a conman most definitely does. This massive con can be completely exposed if people would only take the time to decipher this Sophist allegory. In this allegory, every real world idea can be represented by multiple metaphors and there is really no difference between many religions except for the metaphors they choose to embrace. This is also true of many forms of occultism and pseudoscience. The term "apocalypse" actually refers to what happens if the true meaning of this allegory is "uncovered". In reality, I suspect the immediate short term result of such a revelation would be minimal, but if this knowledge could be made mainstream, it would certainly result in some long term changes in attitudes toward religion. I would compare it to Darwin's Theory of Evolution in it's potential to free people from their irrational beliefs.

Get rid of it.

If part of your message is that various religions describe god as dysfunctional and abusive, then I agree. But that's not proof that there isn't a "god."

Not all religion is theistic as for instance Zen Buddhism is most decidedly not. Yet attending a Zen chanting service or perhaps a Pure Land service one gets a sense of the numinous without the theistic ranting which prevails in the more Neanderthalic branches of Christianity.

problem is that many religions and churches abuse the fact the less fortunate people. saying that donating to their religion will help those less fortunate. or that the fact they are less fortunate is because they are not close enough to God. this is extremely manipulative

Except it’s not brilliant unless you cannot think and question on your own. First Darwin didn’t solve the problem as we are still learning that some aspects of the theory of evolution are wrong. Don’t believe me, look up the stressed chicken Swedish experiment. Second Dawkins himself expresses faith that just because we have made some advances that automatically means we will answer other big universal questions. Third the individual pointing out the 34,000 Christian denominations is first using an argument ad populum that you can tell something just by the pure number of people with a belief or not. Fourth that same person hasn’t logically analyze why it is very explainable that there would be many different denominations and religions if there was a god. And those are only in the first half of the video. It’s too bad you cannot question that which you desperately want to believe - makes you like many theists.

“Desperately want to believe”?? I have absolutely no desire to take any genuine truths away from myself. It was a brilliant video and I have, and continue to, question just about everything in life. This is how we advance as a species. Darwin, evidently religion’s biggest enemy, didn’t completely solve the theory of evolution however there is genuine evidence throughout the planet of evolution taking place. Not fully solving an equation doesn’t detract from the truths behind it. Nor does it add validity to the argument for creationists. Richard Dawkins is first and foremost a scientist and science knows nothing is ever 100%, thus of course he would say what he said. There are always unknowns. Yet again, those unknown factors don’t mean that the creationist ideals are suddenly correct. Third, the person who pointed out the 34,000 denominations wasn’t trying to prove any specific point, he was pointing out a major fault in the “logic” of religions and beliefs in an omnipotent deity. Since in your words it’s “very explainable” why there would be many different denominations and religions IF there were a god, please feel free to explain it. You trying to be an intelligent [sounding] person with a cause to defend religion and some invisible being in the clouds and your dream of an everlasting life after death is laughable at best. Trying to group me with atheists doesn’t work, I’m not one of them. Atheism is in itself a faith based group of sorts and I don’t share that. Mass delusion doesn’t create truth. It means absolutely nothing, the amount of followers involved. It’s just monkey see, monkey do

Feigning confusion when something is explained is a deflection technique used by individuals who don’t want to have their beliefs questioned. “I have absolutely no desire to take any genuine truths away from myself.” Evidence two. Repeating that you supposedly value truth despite evidence to the contrary is a technique trying to convince the person saying it that it is true despite the lack of evidence. “It was a brilliant video and I have, and continue to, question just about everything in life.” Evidence three. You restate both the videos brilliance with no ability to refute what I said (similar to the technique above) and you also without evidence claim you question again despite the evidence to the contrary. “This is how we advance as a species.” Evidence four. You add in a statement that I did not question (actually promoted) as a failed attempt that by association your other statements must also be true. “Darwin, evidently religion’s biggest enemy, didn’t completely solve the theory of evolution however there is genuine evidence throughout the planet of evolution taking place.” Evidence five. You acknowledging he didn’t solve the theory shows the video was inaccurate as I said but instead of admitting this you again try to desperately grasp on to a truth (that there is evidence for evolution) to deflect your original inability to question. “Not fully solving an equation doesn’t detract from the truths behind it. Nor does it add validity to the argument for creationists.” Evidence six. You now move the goal posts and strawman pretending I said something counter to these items when all I did was show you didn’t question a fallacy within the video. Once again you use this to avoid as you don’t question. “Richard Dawkins is first and foremost a scientist and science knows nothing is ever 100%, thus of course he would say what he said. “. Evidence seven. Another moving the goal posts and a non sequitur. I point out that Dawkins shares faith that things will be answered and you use these logical fallacies to avoid admitting that is true. “There are always unknowns. Yet again, those unknown factors don’t mean that the creationist ideals are suddenly correct.” Evidence eight. You now move the goal posts and strawman pretending I said something counter to these items when all I did was show you didn’t question a fallacy within the video. Once again you use this to avoid as you don’t question. “Third, the person who pointed out the 34,000 denominations wasn’t trying to prove any specific point, he was pointing out a major fault in the “logic” of religions and beliefs in an omnipotent deity.” Evidence nine. You strawman as I never said he was trying to prove something and you do this to avoid the logic I did question of his which you couldn’t refute. “Since in your words it’s “very explainable” why there would be many different denominations and religions IF there were a god, please feel free to explain it.” Evidence ten. You having to ask rather than being able to question yourself is again evidence you cannot question. Let’s see if you can show some questioning skill before I just do your questioning for you. “You trying to be an intelligent [sounding] person…”. Evidence eleven. This is called overcompensating as I haven’t made a point of my intelligence and you calling it out indicates you feel inferior. But you turning it into an attempted ad hominem is more of your inability to question your own failings. “…with a cause to defend religion and some invisible being in the clouds and your dream of an everlasting life after death is laughable at best.” Evidence twelve. This strawman of yours is both a projection and a lie. I didn’t once defend religion, I questioned the errors and failed logic in the video. And you lie and strawman by trying to pretend I am a theist when the evidence should have told you otherwise. “Trying to group me with atheists doesn’t work, I’m not one of them. Atheism is in itself a faith based group of sorts and I don’t share that. Mass delusion doesn’t create truth.” Evidence thirteen. Now you lie saying I grouped you with atheists when I did no such thing as the post I made showed. Evidence fourteen. I might as well also cover you not quoting or using my words (which would have been evidence) is also a way to not question and promote your logical fallacies which again is more of you not questioning. “It means absolutely nothing, the amount of followers involved. It’s just monkey see, monkey do”. Evidence fifteen. Again you actually state a truth to pretend it has some bearing when in fact you should have agreed with me that the argument ad populum is invalid. But you didn’t just agree because you couldn’t question. All this allows us to conclude you don’t question and the video was not objectively brilliant.

@@tjones5719 *//"First Darwin didn't solve the problem as we are still learning that some aspects of the theory of evolution are wrong."//* Irrelevant. Evolution in its Modern Synthesis is FAR More Complete & Accurate than it was after Darwin wrote about it. So what?! Science adapts and adjusts its views to what is observed and demonstrated through the available evidence. That's literally how it works. *//"Don't believe me, look up the stressed chicken Swedish experiment."//* That no more Challenges or Conflicts with the idea of Evolution than Every Other Experiment or Study done throughout human history. Stresses can indeed potentially be a driving-factor for certain aspects of adaptations within a given population, a Selective-Pressure. Not only is this Nothing New... but that Literally FITS with the Theory FAR More Than it Could Ever Contradict. And that includes All of the RNA-Based Epigentic, and Hormonal, ramifications & implications of that particular study. *//"Second Dawkins himself expresses faith that just because we have made some advances that automatically means we will answer other big universal questions."//* A few problems there: 1) You're implying/subtly-Admitting that "Faith" IS Bad, solely just in Attempt to also claim/imply that "He/y'all are Just As Bad As Us(/Faith-based Religions)". A faulty or erroneous attempt at Moral Equivalence. 2) You're also utilizing Equivocation, whether you realized it or not, by way of associating "Faith" with Your Beliefs in the Genuine Sense but simultaneously applying a Colloquial (and Still Partly-Inaccurate) Definition when concerning Dawkins's convictions about the future. Faith [Religious] = "Belief in a Deity or Higher-Being, on the basis of 'Spiritual' Apprehension rather than proof or evidence." Faith [Colloquial] = " *COMPLETE* Trust or Confidence in someone or something." Dawkins only has Trust in that conviction, and fairly well-justified trust to be sure, but Not Even Remotely or Necessarily "Complete" Trust... he's perfectly free to doubt that and be skeptical to his heart's content at any point, because he doesn't Stake his Entire Worldview on the Basis of the Truth of that Conviction Alone. Case-in-Point: Problem 3 below. 3) He literally said (about a "Darwin-Like [Comprehensive] Explanation for the Origin of the Universe"): "One day maybe they will [explain it], one day maybe they Won't.". That's not even anything Close to "We proved B, which means we'll Automatically prove C.". You shouldn't be so intellectually dishonest. *//"Third the individual pointing out the 34,000 Christian denominations is first using an argumentum ad populum... "//* False. His argument was in no way Any attempt to claim something was true on the basis of the number of people who think or believe it to be true. If he were, then he would've mentioned the Likely-Trillions of Atheists/Nonbelievers throughout anatomically-modern human existence and Necessarily would have had to specify something like "They were right/correct". Instead... it was just a Comparison of numbers of peoples who believe different things (including Other Religions), posed as a rhetorical appeal to skepticism, because they intrinsically, logically, and literally Cannot ALL Be Correct (least of all About Everything).

You take a statistic and fail to analyze because of confirmation bias. It must be a drag that you have given up your ability to question. You see if you had questioned you would see that those countries high (typically Scandinavian countries) are extremely low on Fearons Ethnicity Fractionalization Index. For instance most Scandinavian countries are only 1/3 to 1/4 the ethnic Fractionalization of say the United States. What this means is that there is less diversity and less diversity allows public policy, resources, etc. to focus on only one group (or only a few groups) which yields greater satisfaction by a larger amount of people. In addition many of these countries have some tremendous natural resource reserves like Norway and its oil meaning resources are plentiful. So it has very little to do (if anything to do) with being more atheistic. What is truly sad though is these countries, to maintain their low ethnic diversity, have policies which are very discriminatory. For instance Denmark has rules that towns cannot be more than a certain percentage of foreign born people, they also have rules that you must speak their language, etc. (at least last I checked). So you’ve selected countries that in a different time would have policies consistent with Nazi germany as they focus on their core race and nationality. Those are the countries you are holding up as ideal. That is sad of you.

@@tjones5719 what exactly isn’t clear to you? Religion is nothing but fairytales which prevents humans from progressing.

⁠​⁠@@NZrq9mq”What exactly isn’t clear to you?” Nice feigning confusion as you unoriginally project your flaw of not questioning. “Religion is nothing but fairy tales which prevents humans from progressing.” So now you abandon your original premise and then move the goal post to something else. Yet you moved it to another indefensible position. If you look at the contributions theist religions had to encouraging writing, reading and even advancing architecture and other forms of artistic expression. So the only question is not if you are indoctrinated but rather how deeply. It looks pretty bad so far for you.

That's a lie 1. Switzerland(secular semi-direct democracy(with church tax)) 2. Norway(Lutheran confessional state, constitutional monarchy) 3. Iceland(Lutheran confessional state, democracy) 4.

You may be the only person on this page who has the right attitude when it comes to understanding these questions. I admire and respect what you said. I hope you are active in it, and not just dismissive.

I am not religious but it is possible for some kind of God to exist but god doesn't have to be what humans have made them out to be in religions.

@@davidutullakatos637 It's not really my question; it's asked by religious apologists as a 'gotcha' tactic aimed at atheists. Your suggestion of equivalency is incorrect. The question is based on the assumption that 'nothing' should be the natural state of affairs, because it doesn't require an act of creation, therefore god did it.

What a wholly uninformed opinion that is. It doesnt even agree with what Harris was talking about, in fact. It has been argued that the concept of monotheism gave rise to science. Since men could no longer attribute natural phenomena to gods of thunder, the sun, etc., they began to look around for other explanations. Religion also gave us morality and the basis of most codes of law. Harris viewpoint on science being capable of establishing morality has been soundly debunked. Most of the great civilizations in history arose in the golden ages of the great religions, in proximity to the birthplace of those religions. Yes, individual inventions and innovations may not have been directly revealed by religion, but by the inspiration given to the societies founded upon their teachings.

Religion and it's institutions of learning considered atheists to be nonpersons . Atheists didn't get proper burials or good jobs . Atheists long ago didn't have the social status and money to build universities and study science and technology but churches did . Thankfully folks such as Leonardo DaVinci, who were deeply imbeded in the church , began to use science to disprove the Bible.

Religion brought all of the advancements of the past, whether directly or indirectly. Had it not been for monotheism, science itself would not exist. It all stems from that reality.

Discipline is easily obtained through Almost Any structured means when one has the patience. A sense of 'meaning/purpose' and 'reason', have Always been individually-chosen and determined; Organized Religion just MAKES people Choose the Same Kind of Ambiguous Things on that. FEELINGS of accomplishment or 'fulfillment' (in other words "It comforts people" in one way or another) is No Excuse or Reasonable Justification. Many people find 'accomplishment', fulfillment', or 'comfort' in Binge-Drinking Alcohol and doing Addictive Hard-Drugs as well, do you think that is enough to Truly Excuse those?! And no, Organized Religion brings almost nothing to the table, even in those matters, beyond what Non-Organized 'Religion' or 'Spirituality' can Also bring. The main thing that Organized Religion provides apart from its Non-Organized Counterparts, is solely a Shared Community with which to Bond with one another over Shared-Views and/or Values (with a Set/Limited View being provided to them by the Leadership). And even That can be obtained from Anywhere, within Any form of Social Community.

@@TechySeven organized religion is one of the biggest motivators to self discipline,and also social community action based on doing it for God and then His sense of watching motivates a person more than some realize.Doing work for the Father to please Him is more effective a lot of times. Why would you put alcohol and drugs on the same level of accomplishment as religion? that is low! and it also is not disciplined!

@@Elvengem *//"and then His sense of watching motivates a person more than some realize."//* Oh trust me, you don't have to tell Me that. I know from years of experience exactly how 'motivating' that can be. In fact, that very same concept was SO "Motivating" that it Genuinely almost screwed my own life entirely, and despite it Not Quite Screwing My Life Completely... it Still absolutely altered it in an unavoidably Negative and very long-lasting way. Ever heard of the philosophical concept of "Solipsism"?! Well, I, as a child, sure as hell hadn't. But that's what I became, an Almost Completely-Literal Solipsist, for Years; all because "He is [supposedly] Always Watching". A kid thinking that they're nothing more than a Bug in a Jar to be tested, poked, prodded, and observed for their Every Action & Reaction... is hands-down one of the WORST Results of the ideas of the Christian Religion. That's the kind of thing that can Significantly Stunt Emotional and Social Growth, and the kind of thing that can CAUSE Psychopathy (and/or Other variants of Anti-Social Personality Disorders)... and could potentially even result in a child becoming a Cold-Blooded Murderer. I was a studious reader, I absolutely Loved both reading and learning in general. Especially on the subjects of animals, biology, and other sciences. But I was still a kid. I asked "HOW can 'God' always be watching?", the Bible didn't seem to have an answer, and neither did my parents. So, since I still believed sincerely, I Assumed it was true from the outset and I began reasoning from there. I rationalized that "Eyeballs provide Sight" and "Eyes are akin to cameras in several ways" And "Animals, and people, with Many Eyes between them all, are Almost Always Around Somewhere Nearby At Almost ALL Times." therefore I concluded "I must be living in a Mostly FAKE World, and I must be one of the Only Real People (apart from Maybe my parents & siblings)". And I kept quiet about Believing that, because it was Supposed to Be "A Test" After All, and if anyone found out that I "Knew" then I would have Failed the Test. So I went about my life, for Years and Years, Thinking & Believing that just about everyone I ever interacted with was nothing more than Solely a Walking-Camera meant Only to Watch Me and Test Me. It's kinda hard to Socialize and Make Friends when you believe they're all Fake. It's kinda hard to Genuinely Respect a teacher when you believe they too are just a Fake.

​@@Elvengem *//"organized religion is one of the biggest motivators to self discipline"//* What a contradiction/paradox of concepts. By definition, it wouldn't BE 'self-discipline' IF coming from Organized Religion, same as how it's Not really "Self-Help" when coming from some Book or Seminar. Literally, the SELF is the Only Possible Legitimate Source of Self-ANYTHING. *//"Why would you put alcohol and drugs on the same level of accomplishment as religion? that is low!"//* Because it's accurate as a Comparative Analogy, to express as being a kind of 'comfort' or 'relief' through an Addictive Coping-Mechanism that gets Excused, Rationalized, and Justified repeatedly by the Addicted Individual. *//"and it is also not disciplined!"//* Neither is a dogmatic religious doctrine that turns people into Emotion-Addicts who can scarcely identify most of their emotions accurately (let alone perceive the differences between one and another with enough clarity to Hold, Limit, or Control them all) due to multiple factors: 1) Rampant Seeking of further or continual "Emotional-Highs" (generating a Vicious-Cycle that results in Physical Addiction with Steady Diminishing-Returns due to the Neuron & Synaptic-Receptor discrepancy ratio with Limited Availability of Emotion-based Neurochemicals). 2) Misattribution of Emotional-Highs as being "Spiritual" Feelings, Signs, & Experiences. Usually in-part due to ignorance of Neurochemistry and in-part due to their Almost-Constant Priming (by surrounding themselves and immersing themselves in Religious symbolism, iconography, rituals, prayer, song/music, and Constantly perceiving [conveniently Self-Affirming] aspects of their Beliefs all throughout their lives). 3) Going to 'Church' only Once or Twice a Week (or Less) is more than enough to Frequently result in those particular "Highs" from many individuals, because their body has [usually] had time to build-up more of the proper neurochemicals to sufficiently saturate their Over-Abundant synaptic receptors. 4) A Shared-Community with Shared-Sense of Value, 'Purpose', or Belonging (especially with Sufficient Use of Music/Song) only further intensifies those particular Emotional-Highs because that Primed kind of setting makes the individual FEEL justified in their beliefs about their 'experiences' (leaving them, in their ignorance of Neurochemistry, with No Other Personally-Known Alternative Explanation EXCEPT What They're Immersed In), because everyone else is [ignorantly] Claiming to have Felt the Same So-Called "Spiritual" Thing(s) and are Willingly showing their own emotional side as if that alone SOMEHOW Evidences & Confirms some sort of 'Truth' to the Metaphysical.
