I still have a hard time believing this but using this knowledge has caused me to dramatically lose weight. When initially introduced this concept, via the kurzgesagt video on this topic, I was extraordinary skeptical, but after 2 months of daily exercise (without dieting) and very little weight loss, I was willing to test it out. I stopped working out and just observed my caloric intake, making dietary changes as needed. So far I’ve lost 15 pounds in 3 weeks.

I think using the word “faith” is not a good idea, it simply has far too much baggage to deal with & provides theists with the ammunition to fling at atheists.

There shouldn’t even be a need for the title of “atheist”, there’s none for those who don’t believe in fairies, imps, trolls etc.

THE BLIND NEED NO EYES TO WALK IN THE DARKNESS !

So if according to the Bible it is better not to be born at all then we can surmise from that statement that our parents are guilty of murder knowing full well that their offspring well eventually die of old age

I wanted to be an accountant since I was 13, and I became one 😊

Your child hood sounded like HELL!

Well, it just doesn’t make any sense at all to believe in things that are not evidently true. That’s a type of delusion. A type of mental instability.

Exercise is best for psychological stability

Can she apply that same thing to you guys?

People think without faith is without morals. Thats not true, you can still care about others. Ethics can be atheistic.

I was born into the Mormon faith. I was ever-fearful of hell (Mormons call it the Telestial Kingdom) and what if I am not pleasing to God. Now, as an atheist, I just simply accept life as it is with no (spiritual) worries. Why, I wondered, did God give Hell to people who committed suicide and then give me an illness which centers around suicide (manic-depression, a.k.a. bipolar disorder).

Faith in atheism?? 😂 after that one I heard it all. Faith in nothing???😂 I can understand you but.. Religion is not the way to God, he will knock at your door. I pray for you he will. Sad to watch and listen to a grown man turning his back to god. You played the devils game. I will pray for you.

I'll demonstrate literal angels in my video 'Judging angels' My icon is a seraph kneeling for example I claim transmutation by electrical process of genetically superior creatures and my channel is dedicated to giving examples of this

The thing that's always pissed me off with religious people is just how dishonest they are about their beliefs. See, many of them will say that they're aware they don't actually know if god exists and that they merely believe he does, but whenever anyone asks them how the universe came into existence, they always without fail answer with "God created it", and not "I don't know". Because apparently making up an answer that even you admit you don't know is true is better than admitting that you don't know the answer.

You know all this hyper-literal nonsense is only a couple hundred years old. The early church and many churches today recognize the figurative nature of much of the Bible. And BTW there’s not much more insufferable to most Christians than those than are hyper-fundamentalist.

Why am I an atheist ??? Cause I studied the bible !!!

Many Christians will appear waving their ticket to heaven. But the Bible warns: Matt 7: 21 "Not everyone who says to me 'Lord, Lord', will enter the kingdom of heaven but only the one who does the will of my Father in heaven . . . and I shall say I never knew you." And the will of the father is to love one another. Meanwhile, so many professed Christians turn away from the threat of man-made climate change. And also ignored are the many millions who succumb every year from fossil fuel air pollution including from gas cars. What if good Christians get to the gates of heaven only to learn these things were real after all?

I suspect religious beliefs are unnecessary and limiting. my thought is they are usually based on some level of fear.

Aleprechaunism, abigfootism, amonsters-under-my-bedism and atheism are not faiths as is defined within a religious context. Just like 'I've got big balls' has multiple meanings.

Define faith and belief? How is not believing in Leprechauns, Zeus, monsters under my bed, fairy dust, magic wands, etc. NOT faith yet NOT believing in the chritlstian god is faith? I was a christian for 14 years and now 40 years on as a non-BS believer. I applaud your honesty and search. But a hard disagree on atheism, aleprechaunism and abigfootism as a faith.

I’m so glad I found your channel. I’m not working at the moment and I’m using this time to create new habits and routines. I wanna take a break from even UA-cam, at some point. Perhaps instead of watching videos for hours, I’ll read books about the same subjects that keep me glued to my phone. 😭 We all need to recognize how valuable our time and attention is. If it wasn’t, the powers that be wouldn’t spend so much time and money trying to get our attention. Once we are self-assured about our value, we’ll have an easier time not succumbing to distractions. People are successful at anything because they stayed focused and didn’t allow themselves to be distracted. 🙏🏾💗🌟🦩🌸

All religions are men-made. Atheism is a religion par excellence It says you are not created! It does not demand collections, tithing, etc. Good for you. Pray to non-God. Anyone and anything can be God, don't worry. Yourself is God. Love, bow down to, serve and curse Him. Good news for non-God people. No sweat. Picking a mammon-god if you will. You will love it.

It's much better being a materialist nihilist atheist satanist to being a Christian.

You found peace? Peace from exactly WHAT when accepting atheism? Were you somehow previously in some sort of bondage? Such as ... ?

The most "interesting" part of Christianity is how they handle the concept of Hell. That God is so pure, so good, so perfect that he cannot tolerate sin. Yet, Lucifer was intentionally created knowing full well he would rebel, become Satan and work tirelessly to plunge the world into sin. Of course Satan must persist for thousands of years instead of being destroyed immediately. Because, well because that's why. All of this so that the one and only solution could be put into effect. The torture and slaughter of a human divine hybrid virgin. In case it sounds silly, barbaric and fabricated, fear not. God sprinkled in verse after verse about how foolish and broken you are if you don't buy it. Very mature God!

Feeling trump logic

Really, a defining trait of those who remain Christian for their entire lives is that they are capable of being at peace with the idea of the majority of everyone else burning and screaming forever. They don't feel compelled to sincerely look for proof of their religion, because their religion is already attractive enough to them that wishful thinking carries them through. Consider that. The eternal conscious torment of almost everyone who ever existed is part of their *wishful thinking.* In their minds, *other* people's torment is a small price to pay for relief of *their* petty existential crises. Of those raised Christian, it is the most selfish among them who stay the course. Anyone else would be desperately looking for some kind of proof they could use to convince others to grab the life-raft. This is why the more sincere evangelicals, those who actually engage outsiders with an honest concern for the latters' interests, tend to be the younger ones. If someone's over 40, and they're still playing that game, *and* they actually appear to be at *peace,* it's because they don't really give a hoot about anyone but themselves. They're the ones who can say "better them than me" and then fall right to sleep. This is probably a good part of the reason why Christian "morality" tends to center around "purity" and "lifestyle" issues rather than actual charity for others. Those theologians who remain in Christianity long enough to acquire the seniority to determine the prescribed "morality" tend to be those who, ironically, don't have a moral bone in their body. The human concept of morality is actually built on most people's concern for others' well-being, but theologians are not "most people." They're cognitively aware of the *concept* of morality, but they have less than their share of the instincts that underlie it. Therefore, they tend to promote a form of "morality" completely alien to what a decent human being would intuitively come up with.

The sugar in fruit is mediated by the fibre content to some extent which is why it's better to eat it than juice it.

Babylon 5 had a great reason for atheism. Marchus, an atheist, was talking to Ivonova, a jew. He said that if there was a god, then everyone deserves whatever they suffer. If there is a god, then all those children in the cancer wards DESERVE that horrible suffering.

I used to get in trouble in church and Sunday school for all of my questions. None of it made any sense to me, I thought the adults around me were insane. I had to pretend I didn't know better than they did.

Fortunately, my indoctrination was not as fundamentalist; but, it still took me over sixty years to make the final break. I'm a happy atheist in a Unitarian Universalist community for the past ten years.

American Samoa not too happy with RFK Jr.

You dumb WS will destroy this American experiment. Kennedy's is as fake as his accent. #ByeFelicia#

I totally agree that the question of where God came from is my biggest point of contention with the idea. And Ik that they say that he always existed and that he exists outside of space and time, but that doesn’t explain why he would happen to be all knowing and all powerful. There could have just as well been some random thing that existed outside of space and time instead. So they fail to explain how/why “God” has these perfect attributes. More over, they can’t seem to agree on whether or not God has hands with fingers, and ears, and eyes, and a brain, or if he is made of no parts(the concept known as divine simplicity). I’ve gotten both answers from believers and both answers have their own problems. If God has all these body parts, then they fail to explain why he doesn’t also need a designer. And if he doesn’t have these body parts, then he could not design us in an analogous way to how us humans design things. So if he doesn’t have those body parts then they don’t have much of an explanation for how life came to be as it is other than just alluding to mysterious things beyond human comprehension, and they therefore fail to adequately explain anything that evolution by natural selection does explain.

This annoying girl at my work brings the Bible in with her every day and I never asked her about it but that’s always the type of person who’s super annoying and cringey. I don’t even talk to her unless I have to cus she annoys me. I’m definitely anti-religious. Atheism all the way!

One does not “accept” atheism. Atheism is not a belief, it is a lack of belief.

Atheism is my default position. It seems so much more likely than the alternative.

I've always thought about the halo effect in the context of religion, but this opened up new perspectives on how its also present in business and "science". Great video! Keep up the great work!

You deserve a million subscribers😊❤

Everyone is born an atheist and no god ever appears throughout your entire life. You must create your own personal god from reading stories and using your imagination.

hI Richard, you dont realise how important and significant the title of the video means to me. i'm too free now.

Know God, no peace. No God, know peace.

A positive aspect of my childhood was that I was never pressured into accepting claims that couldn’t be demonstrated to be true. This made it easy to see that none of the biblical supernatural claims could be demonstrated to be true. The Jesus Christ sacrifice claim seemed so absurd that I never accepted it. Why would an allegedly ‘all powerful’ god require a sacrifice? Yes, that is the same ‘all powerful’ god who couldn’t beat chariots of iron. For countless generations, people have claimed to have communicated with god. Where’s the evidence to demonstrate that anyone has ever communicated with god? How many people have been killed, as a consequence of that claim?

All religion are scams ,PROUD ATHIESTExactly ,#PROUD ATHEIST THEY TEACH US TO BE ASHAMED OF BEING ANTI RELIGION BUT I AM NOT NEVER WILL BE ,CELEBRATE RATIONALITY

Im not an atheist but I gave up on judging and condemning people. Requires too much energy to guilt trip everybody and myself.

a theist posing as atheist or atheist posting as a theist? - possessions are to be exercised - whatever works for you

You come across as a decent person, not a Christian believer, but a Christian in attirude for sure - certainly more so than a great many supposed believers. It seems to me - as with so many ex-Christian atheists as opposed to the dyed in the wool, homegrown anti-theists -the Proverb has you right. Just a word on your Matthew quote. It is a statement of sympathy not a threat. It is a quote from Ecclesiastes 4:1-3. The rest of the chapter - as we treat it - summarises much of the sentiment of the Gospel. Best to you brother, glad you found your peace.

Jesus loves you man, I hope you find Him

I wondered why the adults were lying. My concept of morality even as a kid has a demand of action such that the total failure of God claims was sufficient to dismiss such notions.
