I'm 21, i was where Meghnad sir is currently at at 19. Which means I regarded the power of Universe as God, if big bang created the universe then that was god to me. Now I'm a complete atheist. I think the final string which was holding me back was my personal emotions. Growing up I've read a lot of hinduism stuff and puranas so ig I didn't want it to die. Unless I realized I can still enjoy those stories without having to force fit any term anywhere.
Atheism being equated to a religion is simply paradoxical, if not funny. On the one hand, religion is a political tool for the systemic control/oppression of the "others." It fully depends, for its existence, on the indoctrination of extraordinary unfalsifiable claims through repetitive mind exercise called spirituality, repetitive tongue exercise called prayers, hymns, songs, and chants, and/or some other practice, all of which are aimed at making gullible people "believe" in (a) supernatural being(s)/spirits/chakras/souls/ghosts/etc. without questioning the enterprise that makes the claim. On the other hand, atheism is a political tool for a liberation from systemic control/oppression facilitated by religions and godmen by means of rejecting their extraordinary unfalsifiable claims and putting the burden of proof on the claimants to present sufficient evidences that can, then, be scientifically evaluated and peer reviewed. Extraordinary claims require extraordinary evidences. And, I, for one, may acknowledge the existence of (a) god(s) if presented with scientifically verifiable extraordinary evidences proportionate to the weight of the claim. However, even then, let alone following, I won't even give a damn about the supernatural being(s) because I am fully convinced that the "god(s)" in question has one or more or all of the following attributes, making it/them unworthy of being followed: a) is/are powerless to change anything about reality; b) is/are unjust and cruel beyond my level of acceptance; c) is/are not sufficiently intelligent; d) has/have neither looked back nor cared about any creature ever since "the creation"; e) has/have too many inconsistencies in their narratives; f) their storybooks are on many occasions highly questionable; and many more.
Atheism is like Brotherhood without Banners for the Theists. 😂 It was an interesting conversation. I was initially looking for this video on your Meghnerd channel and I was not previously subscribed to this channel, I didn't receive any notification. But now I am and looking at the other videos, I find the discussions very interesting. Listening to you three was like a brainstorming session. I used to identify myself as gnostic atheist but since last 8 months I am more inclined towards agnostic atheism.
Mindblowing video, gave me goosebumps at many instances thinking "this is exactly what I thought about this particular point" Also, Masoom clearly is overqualified to just be union leader of audience , great conversation overall! P.S. Atheism is a religion in the same way bald is a hair colour
"...prove that God doesn't exist" is a type of NEGATION. *NEGATIONS* are inherently unprovable claims. It gets even difficult when we talk about abstract concepts like *God* . •For NEGATION to be proved, the definition of such things like God should be defined properly. And then it should be addressed logically. Eg. Lets take definition as "God is Omnipotent all-powerful being" So to address it logically it can be asked... "Can god create a rock that he can't lift?" Logical questions like these can tell you there can't be such being.
Excellent video!! It was a great idea to include a 3rd member (Masoom) in this as well! He made an excellent addition to the stream. Looking forward to any future content ❤️
@39:15 Faithful implies good DOES NOT MEAN (NOT) Faithful implies (NOT) good. It just means (NOT) Good implies (NOT) Faithful. These are entirely different statements. For interested readers, I just learnt about contraposition. If you are faithful, you are good; If you are not good, you are not faithful. It has no bearing on whether or not you are good when you are not faithful. Sicne they started talking about logic, I wanted to make sure that they are making logically sound arguments.
The bhagat Singh put out the same point which masoom pointed out that decision of whether you're an atheist or theist will be decided when you're in your bad phase.
Theist: noun a person who believes in the existence of a god or gods, specifically of a creator who intervenes in the universe. adjective denoting or relating to belief in the existence of a god or gods, specifically of a creator who intervenes in the universe. Atheist: Not a Theist. (The clue is in the name).
See I am an agnostic atheist ..But there is a problem with the argument "prove this only then I will believe"..We often say that math is the language of the universe...And we know in any reasonable mathematical system there will always be true statements that cannot be proved ..(Gödel's Incompleteness theorem) ..So if by our pattern recognition ability we somehow manage to know about the existence of GOD.. Would we ever be able to prove that?
Yes but we choose axioms ( based on "natural" Behavior) and build math on it. So math isn't absolute, but if those axioms can be assumed to be true ( which they are since it's based on natural thinking) , then those theorems have to be true by definition.But unlike math, the concept of God is neither natural nor can you build theorems abt it, so I don't see how it compares to math.
You can build logically sounding models for just about anything. The question of supernatural and God and creator is not mathematical, its should be demonstrable by the claims it is adhered to
3:22 when something is proved you no longer have to believe....then you know it...believer and non believer ride on the same boat just at the opposite ends... enquiry into god is an internal inquiry , it is about realising and knowing
Quran gives the definition of GOD, "Say: He is Allah, the One and Only; Allah, the Eternal, Absolute; He begetteth not, nor is He begotten; And there is none like unto Him"
Masoom’s prep was watching javed akhtar interviews…however still more articulate and contributed to the stream unlike the mess Meghnad is. Meghnad always going “interesting” and “going to ask that” then digresses..as usual. Here for Vimoh

📌 Atheism - The people who follow desires over Devine guidance. who need material explanation of Allah who created material. Who's concept about this world and destiny is unclear. Who want to see god in time space and matter which are creation of Allah. Who think no intellectual walked on this planet before them. Who believes in multiverse theories to some extent but deny the concept of eternal life hell and paradise. Who want everything perfect in his life if he follow the god He will see the signs of creator with creation and within himself but still he deny the creator because he cannot see him through his eyes. Who became ignorant overtime due to following the whims of their desires. Who are afraid to accept a concept of God in his life, because if he accept it then he have to live according to his parameters, he have to leave his comfort zone and change his life style. An atheist is a person who don't look into the only true religion because imperialists, socialist and colonialist etc indoctrinated him to believe him into the myths that this true religion is associated with terrorism, backwardness, who suppress women, who kills non-believers wherever they find them, etc - see without even mentioning the name "Islam" you 🫵 unconsciously linked it with islam.

Asking if 'Atheism is a Religion' is like asking if being an "Illiterate is a profession"!
Better analogy would be "Being Jobless is a profession!"

Atheism: As long as theists fail to demonstrate that their preferred god exists, we see no reason to believe what theists believe.

Vimoh op vimoh bhaiya real Chad
29:15 vimoh is God of atheism
Theist:
noun
a person who believes in the existence of a god or gods, specifically of a creator who intervenes in the universe.
adjective
denoting or relating to belief in the existence of a god or gods, specifically of a creator who intervenes in the universe.
Atheist: Not a Theist.
(The clue is in the name).
I no longer call myself atheist, but instead a science literate.
See I am an agnostic atheist

Quack
it is to do with dichotomy of sacred and profance.
Believe and faith are both different things.
Thanks for this topic. You guys gave me points to throw at "believers" ...keep up the good work.
Bring Sanjay Rajaura and Vimoh together and do that in Hindi, same topic. Will love to see that.
Sanjay Rajaura can speak English!
35:30 bro very good point
7:00 absolutely on point😂😂😂

That's why I love Advait , plain philosophy no burden of god
But consciousness don't exist without body.. so adwait is false

U neither know advait nor science👍😂
atheism is religion like
TV turned of is also a channel
no shoe on foot is also a shoe
no clothes on body also a type of clothes
Believing in not believing, so its a religion technically 😂
By your logic saying no is also saying yes
Religion is following the message given by GOD through prophets.
Quaran is the guide for mankind of "The Do's & Don't s ".
📌 Atheism - The people who follow desires over Devine guidance.
who need material explanation of Allah who created material.
Who's concept about this world and destiny is unclear.
Who want to see god in time space and matter which are creation of Allah.
