Jesus V. Religion

Saw a very interesting video on YouTube today, and it got me thinking about how much people hate religion. I feel mostly the same way this kid does in the video, and was wondering about LP's thoughts. It's about 4 minutes long, has a great story, and for how much I hate poetry, shit's good just on an artistic level, so if you have some spare time, discuss

Warning: This video is not worth your time and features a nutbag that capitalizes "He" when he speaks of Jeebus.

This nut: To qualify for grace all you have to do is realize you don't qualify. It's about His behavior, not yours. You are free if you are in Jesus and the Cross is proof you have freedom to struggle. Wow!!!!! 69th most video viewed on the web today!! God is good!!! Thats true regardless of how many views though. Hoping to make Him famous through it all! Ps i love how it still says 301 views cuz it hasn't updated haha God saw all you were going to be/do before He went to the cross, and He still gladly went. You don't have to hide anymore.

This.

Video is pure garbage.

This is pretty good though:

also, if the hindu 8-armed-elephant-god gansesh isn't real, how come my grandad was reincarnated as a mountain goat.

another religion bashing thread...so interesting ;o

this forum is on the polar opposite of the line of thinking the bible thumpers have. and both lines of thinking are retarded imo.

haters gon hate

haha that comic is so good.. it also attacks the angry atheist movement,(a movement which annoys me just as much as super-religiousness, even though it's definitely far more correct.) and that is definitely overdue.

No one is saying there is certainly no god

The chances of any one religion being literally right are 0.000000001% or less. Religion bashing yes, becasue organised religion is almost certainly a scam preying on frightened gullible people
The chances of there being some kind of god are much much greater (but still less than 0.0001% imo. lol)

Its a matter of how much uncertainty there is your position. In poker the better your understanding of the game and the more information you collect, the less uncertainty you have about someones hand range. you don't say "oh we can't be 100% sure what he has, so there is no point trying to narrow the range, lets jsut give up guies"

I put god on a range, and I raise my life that hes a bluff.

Literally right refers to: The reality of this world and life and 'afterlife' match very closely what a particular organised religion teaches. Their claims about the past and future are accurate.

This is my informed justified opinion.

Why so mad zulu? Is it because you have wasted so much of your life clinging to a popular delusion?

dude, you sound like an uber prick

i'm not religious i just hate dumbasses who think they're qualified to have any opinions on religion and especially dumb opinions like the ones you have.

well a lot of pretty intelligent people in the world have a similar opinion as silver, and their opinions are based off facts.
