- inactive, on 03/29/2009, -29/+606Watching this video as a Christian was almost as painful as a watching a Jonas Brothers concert.
- GregFD3S, on 03/29/2009, -8/+538Atheists aren't bad people, horses are bad people.
- catachip, on 03/30/2009, -8/+343Would be better if they all didn't look like they were Physics students.
- morgens2, on 03/30/2009, -9/+276I would say it's not offensive to Christians because it's not a portrayal of typical Christians; rather, a portrayal of a fundamentalist belief that pisses off most Christians too.

http://www.fstdt.com/ - badart, on 03/29/2009, -24/+262Theres a lot of things in life I've concluded to be wrong without studying them in depth, evolution is one of them. The fact that I don't know a thing about it doesn't bother me in the least!

- Frankyfan3, on 03/30/2009, -13/+200Everyone knows that scientists insist on complex terminology to make it harder for true christians to refute their claims. Take "Deoxyribonucleic acid" Sounds impressive, right?
Ever see what happens when you put something in acid?
It dissolves!
If our bodies were full of that acid, we'd all dissolve.
So much for the theory of evolution.
*head asplode* - shawn1122, on 03/30/2009, -0/+172Also, its taken from an internet forum. I think its pretty well known that you can find some crazy ***** on almost any forum.
- Tr33fiddy, on 03/29/2009, -20/+176This is so entertaining.
- superbobd, on 03/30/2009, -9/+147Why can't we all just settle this with like...a big knife fight, or something?
- Azerael, on 03/30/2009, -2/+118If you discriminate against races, you're a racist.
If you're discriminating against physics students, does that make you a... physicist?
Oh my god. - Chapman9110, on 03/30/2009, -5/+117The humorous element of this video was that these were supposedly quotations taken directly from online Christian forums. Also, while these quotations are not documented, and may be fake, I promise you that there are plenty of people who are this ignorant.
- homercles337, on 03/30/2009, -3/+112I put on my robe and wizard hat...
- inactive, on 03/29/2009, -39/+136Nah it's ok. I think I'm going to convert into an Atheist.
It just makes more sense. - tmyprod, on 03/30/2009, -17/+114Why do atheists always get dragged into theological debates? I'm going to use my "Dad/Pokemon Analogy" again.
If you have ever been curious as to how atheists view theists, go talk to your dad about pokemon. Remember that blank stare you got before you try to engage an atheist in a religious discussion. - Idejder, on 03/30/2009, -2/+86Seriously. That and the stockpile of big wooden X's we have ready to go at any time. Damn them!
- thomasryan, on 03/30/2009, -20/+103saying all Christians are brainless morons like that is like saying all atheists are smug hypocritical haters. While there are both Christians and atheists like that... most of them arent. i pity anyone who actually thinks Christians think like this...
although this is ridiculously stereotyping and generalizing... it is sort of sad that there probably are a few people like this. Reminds me of that "Saved" movie. As a non-idiot Christian i dislike those morons more than atheists do, but thats a whole other rant.... - LiLBiGD1Ck, on 03/30/2009, -14/+92Couldn't we also say the same about every mythical thing? What's your stance on unicorns, the tooth fairy, santa claus, xenu? We can't prove they exist and we can't prove they don't exist.
- Tr33fiddy, on 03/29/2009, -6/+77As an agnostic I have absolutely no inclination to challenge the faith of other people. If you have it, good for you, if not then good for you, too. Live and let live, believe what you like as long as you don't try to impose those beliefs on me or other people.
However.
I wrote my thesis on the evolution of DNA, so if you're going to challenge our current best theory for the distribution and variety of species, heredity and organisation of fitness then we're going to have a falling out and it will end up with one of two conclusions;
1. People thinking you're a self-deluding ignoramous.
2. You saying, "Tree, you're right, I'm wrong".
Religion cannot judge science on it's religious principles and Science cannot judge religion on scientific principles. The two are mutually exclusive from each other's point of view yet are entirely capable of living in harmony; Faith:Evidence - each is equally irrelevant to the other.
And one (second) last thing. You don't call me a Darwinist. "Darwinism" is not my religion or belief set, Darwin is not my God. Darwinian or neo-Darwinian evolution is our current best theory for the formation of species and one of the most successful theories ever devised by man. That is all. I am not a "Darwinist" for thinking it a good theory. I am a person for thinking it a good theory or a scientist for having studied it in detail and thinking it a successful theory.
And the last thing; when you say evolution is "just a theory" you are not only broadcasting your lack of intelligence but disavowing science and the entire scientific rationale as well. If so, you must refer to conclusion #1 above. - acegi, on 03/30/2009, -3/+72is it just me or is that family in one of their quotes seem actually conflict-free and happy?
- vuke69, on 03/30/2009, -1/+67@shawn1122 "...you can find some crazy ***** on almost any forum."
Dugg for absolute truth. - Rally603, on 03/30/2009, -1/+65Bad news: we're outnumbered :(
- kolding, on 03/29/2009, -5/+63not to start a debate, provoke or troll, but for me to better understand...
Did you get offended by this movie?
I was in quite a moral dilemma when I submitted it. - Egroh08, on 03/30/2009, -3/+60"Not only is eternal life good, but you get to spend it with God who can do anything"
Can your god microwave a burrito so hot that even he can't eat it? - TomGfromCanada, on 03/30/2009, -6/+60i'm gunna ***** a hooker
- sonofabiscuit, on 03/30/2009, -10/+60I'm an atheist, and I don't have a problem with the core of Christianity itself. What pisses me off beyond belief is when so-called Christians try to push their values onto the agenda of the government and law, and vote for looney idiots just because they claim to be pro-life, anti-gay, and anti-science. This type of mentality is what is shifting our nation back towards the dark ages, rather than a future of innovation. THIS is why atheists are so pissed off at religion.
I'd be fine with religion if people would stop the group think and keep their issues away from politics. Unfortunately, this will probably never happen as long as organized religion exists. - chrisduser, on 03/30/2009, -7/+56Santa Claus is real until somebody can prove that he isn't. SO THERE!
- deathandtaverns, on 03/30/2009, -1/+49and Christians tend to have guns, lots and lots of guns.
- cmotdibbler, on 03/30/2009, -3/+51There are lots of people this stupid in real life!
Exhibit A: Texas school board.
Exhibit B: Illinois senator using the bible to deny global warming.
Exhibit C: Creation Museum near Cincinnati.
Exhibit D: Dual "Special Ks" Ken Ham and Kent Hovind.
etc..... - davewelsh79, on 03/30/2009, -12/+60If it hasn't been clearly enough laid out for you: atheists are not what you think. Atheists simply don't see any reason to believe in gods. They don't claim to "know" that gods don't exist. That's not what atheist means.
I suppose an atheist _could_ claim to know there are no gods, but he would, of course, be crazy.
Atheism is about not subscribing to any theism.
The fact that you are agnostic is completely irrelevant to pretty much any discussion. No one cares that you don't know whether gods exist or not. We all feel the same way.
Agnosticism is not some kind of "half way point" between atheism and theism. It's completely orthogonal to that. It the answer to a question nobody asked. - Yaanu, on 03/30/2009, -14/+62My views, as an apathetic Eastern Orthodox Christian:
Athiests: Do what you want, just don't go evangelical on me.
Evangelicals: Do what you want, just don't go fundamentalist on me.
GLBT: Do what you want, just stay off of my lawn. - inactive, on 03/30/2009, -84/+130I'm an agnostic, I don't think man has attained the knowledge to either prove or disprove the existence of God. MOST believers admit this, they say their belief in God is an act of faith and they don't need absolute proof. Many atheists far more militant and narcissistic, they seem to believe they can prove a negative, that man has attained all knowledge of these things, that God doesn't exist and arrogantly claim this is the end of the debate.
- Pillar007, on 03/30/2009, -14/+60Nor can we prove or disprove that the Flying Spaghetti Monster created the world on one of his drunken binges (which he did, btw).
- mediaphile, on 03/30/2009, -2/+46The problem with your paper, FaithclubDotNet, is that you make a bunch of speculation without any evidence to support your claims. I think a little more research on your part is in order.
- mpn401, on 03/30/2009, -12/+56RELIGION'S OLD!
- kaosethema, on 03/30/2009, -5/+48rule what world?
we'd be colonizing half the galaxy by now. thanks monotheists for keeping me home!! - boydrew, on 03/30/2009, -11/+48@Averagedigger
Convert into an atheist? Your trolling is perplexing to me. - inactive, on 03/30/2009, -3/+40...bay BAAAAAAAAAY
- inactive, on 03/30/2009, -10/+45You "soft Christians" give cover to these ***** heads. We're getting tired of fighting them, it's your turn.
- geodebug, on 03/30/2009, -4/+38That was hilarious. I soiled my black robe!
- TheFamousOne2, on 03/30/2009, -33/+67Of course this makes it to FP. Im a Christian. I believe in evolution. If you're a christian and you dont believe in ribonucleic acid, you're stupid...but thats you're own choice so go for it. I dont tell atheists what to believe, and I'd respect it if they dont tell me what to believe.
Oh, and while we're at it, STOP with the extreme biased behavior towards Christians. The fact of the matter is were not all westboro church super conservatives nut-jobs. The same could be said about atheist extremists.
ps: Ron Paul 2008...Theres still a chance!! - paul2802, on 03/30/2009, -6/+39Napoleon Dynamite doesn't look right with a beard.
- voyetra8, on 03/30/2009, -1/+34Too bad it's the most vocal 1% as well.
- ExoBit, on 03/30/2009, -1/+34 1) No known species of reindeer can fly. BUT there are 300,000 species
of living organisms yet to be classified, and while most of these are
insects and germs, this does not COMPLETELY rule out flying reindeer
which only Santa has ever seen.
2) There are 2 billion children (persons under 18) in the world. BUT
since Santa doesn't (appear) to handle the Muslim, Hindu, Jewish and
Buddhist children, that reduces the workload to 15% of the total - 378
million according to the Population Reference Reference Bureau. At an
average (census) rate of 3.5 children per household, that's 91.8 million
homes. One presumes there's at least one good child in each.
3) Santa has 31 hours of Christmas to work with, thanks to the different
time zones and the rotation of the earth, assuming he travels east to west
(which seems logical). This works out to 822.6 visits per second. This is
to say that for each Christian household with good children, Santa has
1/1000th of a second to park, hop out of the sleigh, jump down the chimney,
fill the stockings, distribute the remaining presents under the tree, eat
whatever snacks have been left, get back up the chimney, get back into the
sleigh and move on to the next house. Assuming that each of these 91.8
millions stops are evenly distributed around the earth (which, of course,
we know to be false but for the purposes of our calculations we will
accept), we are now talking about .78 miles per household, a total trip of
75-1/2 million miles, not counting stops to do what most of us must do at
least once every 31 hours, plus feeding and etc.
This means that Santa's sleigh is moving at 650 miles per second, 3,000
times the speed of sound. For purposes of comparison, the fastest man-made
vehicle on earth, the Ulysses space probe, moves at a poky 27.4 miles per
second - a conventional reindeer can run, tops, 15 miles per hour.
4) The payload on the sleigh adds another interesting element. Assuming
that each child gets nothing more than a medium-sized lego set (2 pounds),
the sleigh is carrying 321,300 tons, not counting Santa, who is invariably
described as overweight. On land, conventional reindeer can pull no more
than 300 pounds. Even granting that "flying reindeer" (see point #1) could
pull TEN TIMES the normal amount, we cannot do the job with eight, or even
nine. We need 214,200 reindeer. This increases the payload - not even
counting the weight of the sleigh - to 353,430 tons. Again, for
comparison - this is four times the weight of the Queen Elizabeth.
5) 353,000 tons traveling at 650 miles per second creates enormous air
resistance - this will heat the reindeer up in the same fashion as
spacecraft re-entering the earth's atmosphere. The lead pair of reindeer
will absorb 14.3 QUINTILLION joules of energy. Per second. Each. In
short, they will burst into flame almost instantaneously, exposing the
reindeer behind them, and create deafening sonic booms in their wake. The
entire reindeer team will be vaporized within 4.26 thousandths of a second.
Santa, meanwhile, will be subjected to centrifugal forces 17,500.06 times
greater than gravity. A 250-pound Santa (which seems ludicrously slim)
would be pinned to the back of his sleigh by 4,315,015 pounds of force.
In conclusion - If Santa ever DID deliver presents on Christmas Eve, he's
dead now. - sonofabiscuit, on 03/30/2009, -7/+39Edward Current also has a ton of great atheist videos:
http://www.youtube.com/user/EdwardCurrent
Most of them are done in satire, so you can show your evangelical friends and they'll think they're watching a pro-christian video until the point gets across to them. - reyoo30309, on 03/30/2009, -9/+38The prosecution of atheists needs to stop, what they did to Brian was just plain wrong.
- ScottMitchell, on 03/30/2009, -5/+34@shawn1122: "Also, its taken from an internet forum. I think its pretty well known that you can find some crazy ***** on almost any forum."
Well, answer me this: HOW IS BABBY FORMED?
http://www.somethingawful.com/flash/shmorky/babby. ... - ProfessorFoo, on 03/30/2009, -0/+28There are so many places unicorns and Santa could be hiding it's impossible to prove or disprove them.
