It's been a while, but how long is a catholic mass?
...Cruel and unusual punishment!

How long is American Idol?
...Cruel and unusual punishment!

Are you implying that this is your post? What is the point of this statement? Or are you just finding ways of repeating yourself.

 

I have 'faith' (oh crud, again) that BT has more of an attention span beyond a sound byte or headline.

 

EDIT:

"Just keep swimmin'..., just keep swimmin'..." 

Your video is not the only one posted here in the thread Myfist0.  It's just the longest so far.

My point was it's relatively easy to run a search on youtube for a specific video that you remember and type the URL into JoeUser compared to having to sit through, deconstruct, analyze, try to form an objective opinion and then write out a response summarizing everything including any additional comments with it.

 

Catholic Mass, American Idol?  Funny, I've never heard those two mentioned together before.  All I can tell you is if it doesn't work out for you then change religions or it's time to switch your girlfriend up.  Well maybe they'll sing that song on American Idol one day.  "Just keep swimmin'..., just keep swimmin'..."

Hi Myfist0, good clip. This guy must have some NYC blood in his system (damn evolution) if his quick-time-speak is any judge hahaha. My best guess though is that if proof is of no interest to people, then philosophy other than their own will be even less meaningful to them??? American Idol … catholic mass … cruel and unusual punishment to be sure. Most who are captivated with these kinds of things have already been mentally re-mushified and are just unreachable, probably because their ‘receiver’ is faulty.

Is it possible that you Captain are coming around to my way of thinking? Personally (according to you anyway), I have already changed 'religions' (hahaha) and do not foresee another upgrade in the cards. And besides, any other religion would change nothing, just another atheistic endeavor hell bent on destroying your personal beliefs. Why you feel inclined to respond here at all surprises me. I guess it just verifies that you actually believe what you are saying, always a plus in my opinion. This may come as a shock to you Captain, but I don't expect your sensibilities were of much concern in the creation of this comical post. However, there is a little triangular button (did you read the disclaimer) that must need be pushed (after which you mystically agree) to suffer the pangs and arrows of such affronts like a whole minute and 40 seconds of time abuse, what could be more distracting, dramatic or devastating, go figure? So far, all you have done here is voice your biased opinions, but you have failed to back up said opinions with anything besides intimations lacking substance. Your god may practice his trade undetectable and unobserved, but surely something so mundanely human as “The Religion of Atheism” should provide for volumes of support, so one would think?

American Idol is (officially) entertainment and Catholic mass is not.  If you want to combine both then go to a megachurch.  But yes I'll agree when you're young a Catholic mass can be cruel and unusual punishment, rhetorically speaking.

That response was meant for everyone not just Myfist0.  Myfist0 only posted one vid.

We (theists) have been called out by Boobztwo.  First we get ridiculed for not responding and now also when we do, go figure.  My argument?  My argument has been to logically break down that Atheism is a religion or at the very least has religious elements in it if it is not.  This is not the first thread to discuss it and probably won't be the last.

Well, like my friend Stefan likes to state, Not everyone will want to take the blue pill and free themselves from their enslavement so you may as well move on hence my comment "just keep swimmin'..."

That video was not directed at you specifically Rouge. I thought that since BT rather liked my linking Noam Chomsky, she might like another Anarco Philosopher. I did pick a short one, most shows are well over an hour.

Stefan Molyneux Dissects an Article Critical of Atheism 36:36

Edit:

My ship must have exited on the wrong ephemeral plain again. The the religious uh'ummms are in the philosophy thread where philosophy is about as far from religion as you can get because you need rational thought. And the philosophers, atheists and agnostics are in the religious thread.

There is a glitch in the matrix, take advantage while you can, it will be reset soon.

Oh my, all of them ... that is going to require ... a lot of time, I can see why she left things up to me when she departed JU, oh well, hope I can fill her spiked heels. What if I just deal with one theist at a time for the moment anyway? If the above is your idea of "logic to break down atheism" then there is little to be concerned over, as if. Take the ‘blue’ pill or at least find out something about the subject first. Then you could stop pretending there is something new (from the theist perspective) in this age old silly argument. Personally I do a lot of sifting through online christian reference material … how else am I to try and comprehend the current christian arguments and the plethora of new classifications they have for, well everyone. It just seems that whenever I chat with another rational person, another non believer anyway, I more often than not find we are in agreement and are both dumbfounded with religious (any) dogma. I assume this might be your problem too; at least this could afford you some time to first try and understand what it is you are so hell bent on ‘braking down’, before you begin. Have a beer and chill a bit, we are after all just human.

Just for SAG's, did you know that historians including Lucien Febvre agree atheism in its modern sense did not even exist before the end of the seventeenth century. About the time christianity crashed.

PS – Stop whining, it is unbecoming.

I missed the Stefan Molyneux reference, some of the best rational explanations I have seen of late. I downloaded some books … when time permits.

If you dig deep enough you can find much of what you are looking for … and sometimes even what you expect to find. Well who do you think should get the “Big Head” award for their blatant arrogance, the nonbeliever or the believer … Roll the film and see.

Arrogant atheists and not collecting stamps:

What the frack? She has taken hiatus before, is she gone?

 

Iyee, between that and your avatar, you are putting some colour into an old grey aliens face 

 

ROFL at the stamp collectors. Another good video, thanks. 

Sorry I didn't intend for things to turn out this way, hahaha, all is well ... Yea, well the Captain and I mentioned it somewhere ... I thought it was cute.

PS - Humm, I will drop you a couple of lines.

I found a series on YouTube that discusses the atheist and what theists call 'atheistic humanism' and why atheists are unable to capitulate to unproven gods humm ... that would be all of them. It is called "Discovering Religion" a ploy to get theists to watch the first minute or two hahaha. Why should they be interested in reality??? There are 22 clips in all or an all in one if you like (~5 hours). These clips simply give a realistic view to this nonsense over 'the religion of atheism'. Let me know if I should continue this???

There is a difference between having an actual discussion and just (lazily) machine gunning video content out so the other party is bogged down going trough all of it.  I will give you this Tess, I have had similar problems with ministers of other denominations that I won't name here.  It's a cheap verbal pseudo-bullying tactic when to be used in a public forum.  Limiting the others ability to get a word in so to speak.  That's not a discussion. There is a line that should not be crossed.

A side note about blatantly snarky comments, people that do that make themselves look ugly.

Stop whining it is still unbecoming. If you actually have some wisdom to impart do so, but if you are waiting for me to 'LET' you say your peace, well you had better pack a lunch or three for your wait. Again, if the above is your idea of "logic to break down atheism" then there is little to be concerned over, as if. But if you take a joke like this OP and you still decide “to sit through, deconstruct, analyze, try to form an objective opinion and then write out a response summarizing everything including any additional comments with it” is not my problem but more power to you. When I look for arguments against the bible, I look up likeminded people … but if I want to try and understand the theist’s perspective, I just ask them. I don’t tell Christians what the ‘religion of christianity’ is simply because it is not my place to do so and because I am prejudiced due to my personal understanding of life. There is no such thing as the ‘religion of atheism’ and all you have to do to know this is to Google the term. If ugly is the worst I am forced to deal with here (as if) ... well I have been called a lot worse and still managed to survive. If you cannot even understand that this whole post was nothing but a jibe at the 'religion of atheism' in the first place, and you still have not picked up on this FACT by now ... you never will because you just do not listen. So anyway, are you an ordained minister too and if so what persuasion?

Well here is the second verse ... much like the first ... Discovering Religion

On second thought, I think this should be posted on the “Flock of Dodo’s” post ( https://forums.joeuser.com/414202/page/4/#3141359 )

Since it is already here well what the heck so just ignore it if it is to intense.

That statement went way beyond this thread.  I was pointing to JoeUser as a whole itself.  However this specific thread is focused on the Religion of Atheism and I'm trying to deliver while still keeping it on topic within those respectable confines, tricky.  Keep in mind I was invited here by the OP, I just wish I would have answered her invitation early.

 

I was not referring to the OP.  I was referring to your actions along with, to a tiny extent, Myfist0 and the perceived cheesiness of voicing your p.o.v through not by writing your own words but linking time consuming videos (at least time consuming for me) instead.  I've already voiced my concerns, there's no point in discussing it anymore.  If you interpret that as whining, well whining implies that I demand you change accordingly.  I previously stated I won't be going through the motions because of all the extra unnecessary work involved.  That's completely in my sphere.  I only did it to explain any future actions or inaction and voice my opinion on the matter.

 

It was an Atheist that made this thread.  Scroll up to the top of the page and see for yourself.  No Christian is going to argue with you whether Christianity is a religion or not so that point is moot.

 

  Heh, no.  However, I have explored quite a number of different religions while soul searching and that includes various Christian sects.

 

 

 

Whoa! Stop the music.  Seriously, is this an troll attempt to try to get me banned?  I did not mean to call you ugly any more than you call me whiny.  I made a blanket statement on people's worded actions being done in snarky ways here and how it makes them look online.  Why?  Because it's so prevalent only on Joeuser.  Surely you've noticed it by now?  If I came off as calling you ugly I apologize and ask your forgiveness.
