"Why are you saying we're wrong, don't you know we're violent?" ~Islam
It is good to see an apologist admit that. There is plenty of evidence, but the moslem apologists keep claiming the opposite.

“Those who believe in lies, will lie for those beliefs” very powerful ❤
* beliefs.
When that belief is a lie, defending it requires more lies.
"if you have to lie to defend your truth, you already know it's not true."

Excellent!!!
I remember a series of Danish cartoons that called out Islam as a violent religion. Many Muslims reacted to this characterization... by threatening violence.
not just threatening, mind.
Isn't that called "self-fulfilling prophecy"?
As a dane i remember this very clearly they stormed our embassy's, massive riots, tried to murder the cartoonist., a muslim decapitated a teacher in France for showing one of the cartoons in class not too long ago, It still goes on.. over some stupid cartoons.
@@alexklavy7372 Yes, this is what religion does to people.

"Islam is the only religion that answers questions".🤔
They all answer one question; "just how gullible are people?"
I find it pretty easy to believe that an ancient Arabian cult leader fucked a little girl, but I draw the line at calling that a good thing.
Good Wizard (G-d for short) believes in all of us and his Holy Text tells us Harey Potter is the true magical savior bcuz he defied inept tyranny to fight the greater evil and won. Austin 3:2-4 explains "G-d shall guide His ministry and His Word shall be shared in all their promos. His Word has all the answers, but this chapter of this particular book will give believers the questions to ask in the course of spreading the Word of G-d to those most in need of His saving magic. They will say “You follow a false prophet” - ask them what the criteria for prophethood are and when they mention prophecy coming true, show them this verse."
It’s not even true, Christians provides plenty of answers- awful ones, but it does; exactly like Islam. In fact, Islam borrowed plenty of these answers from Christianity.

'Eyes are perfect'. And yet religious believers wear glasses and lenses made by science to correct that perfection.
I loved the one where he said:" If you think about the universe, it's really complex."
Well, no shit 🤣And if you think about everything all at once, it's a lot! Give this genius a Nobel prize! 🤣
Funny, isn't it, how the religious think that only our eyes are perfect, as if to say that the rest of our bodies are full of mistakes.

You have to correct that perfection lest they see the truth.
*"Religion is a culture of faith; science is a culture of doubt. I would rather have questions that can't be answered than answers that can't be questioned." -- Richard Feynman*
believers told me many times, they choose the word "yes", and "positive" attitude.
i was very young, when i understood i must choose the word "no", to be "negative".
quite an intellectual choice! i was amazed by what i learned back then, preparing for an exam, maybe, that all logic can be satisfied with onlt these elements: "no", NAND, NOR, all "negative". i understood all logic, in its entirety, is like a world, well, all physical objects can be considered logical constructions, therefore few "negative" elements can build all Universe, and i understood that "yes" cannot build reality. "negative" elements satisfy all possible requirements, where any "yes"is made of "no no". so i learned respect for the "negative" part of reality. quite a list of things i understood, yet the believers told me how good is to believe only in "positive", while they had close to no understanding of any of it.
this is not Feynman, this is me

Oh my God, this is exactly what happens to some religious people. They have questions to which they have not yet found answers, and they are still religious. At the same time, evolutionists claim that they have answers that cannot be questioned.
@@morarespect Evolutionists don't know the truth (Jesus Christ). That's what really matters. No religion needed. Just faith, faith plus nothing.

One must believe that God is.
Aron Ra has been one of the most positive and intellectually influential persons in my life. Thank you. I grew up in an fundamentalist Christian community in East Texas. Finding him on UA-cam was one of the greatest things in my life to help me deconstruct what I was taught and forced to believe.
Me too.

Those who disbelieve among the People of the Scripture, and the Polytheists, will be in the Fire of Hell, where they will abide forever. These are the worst of creatures. Quran 98:6
No one is forced to believe the truth; many are deceived into believing a lie. Satan, the devil is a liar and the father of lies. When the blind lead the blind both will fall into the ditch.
So much talk about the blind makes you sound like a bitch
The statement about "aren't you afraid of what we will do to you if you oppose us" is very telling.

There is a trope-y mobster saying that says the exact same thing: "Nice place you got here. Would be a shame for something bad to happen to it."
@@darkfalcon7856- exactly. In any other settings other than religion, we would call it "extortion".
But for some reason in the Abrahamic religions, they call it "God's love".
The proper response to their question is to laugh in their face, because that is what we do with fools. The only response to "convert or die" is tell them "come and try," then show them that allah is not nearly as ackbar as a shotgun (To be fair not much is, for while a rifle put a hole through someone a shotgun rips a chunk out of them and throws it on the floor). Informing them you soak your buckshot in bacon grease will add that extra bit of FAFO to goings on.
@@Starhawke_Gaming Like the government too. When they see something they like that some random group of people have made, they'll go above and beyond to get it. This is why the government should never be trusted, regardless of who the politician is. Democrat and Republican are meaningless titles created for one purpose; to divide people. The way I see it as an American; you are natural born American, American-Immigrant, or a visitor/tourist.
And of course, that's not a reason to believe. It is at most a reason to pretend to believe.
The caller is a good example of 'confirmation bias'. He admits looking around for a religion that he agrees with. He has a way of thinking. He needs thinking validated. He buys into that religion.
kinda like what atheists do when they "deconstruct" huh?
Many "believers" these days, the vast majority of whom Muslim, have adopted the tactic of sounding critically thoughtful, just so they do not come across as being as brainwashed and intellectually lazy as they actually are

One of my autism super powers is built-in atheism.
Same although I'm more on the agnostic side these days. I don't believe in a god or devil, or a heaven/hell BS. My personal beliefs are more inline with modern occultism in that I see everything as being connected. There's no morality or BS scriptures that I follow just my personal spiritual observations from when I feel I have felt that connection through obsessive meditation practices in which I have lost all awareness of my body and have felt as though I have been shown behind the curtain. It was basically what I'd describe as returning to a giant field of energy that felt so comforting and familiar. My partner tells me it was self induced hyperventilation... which I'm also open too... but man what an experience! And, that's coming from someone who took a lot of drugs in my younger days.
@@RebelPrintMediaBruh.
I am an atheist an all knowing almighty being would not create a world with this much suffering and pain. If god is all knowing and almighty there is no reason for god to get mad at us because he already knew what would happen when he created us. And if Mr almighty did it anyway then it is a horrible god.
Energy fields and being connected to everything that is alive. Where do i even begin... its like believing that your star sign matters or that having a healing crystal in your room is good for your health... there is no proof it just feels good for the believer. Its the same faith based bullcrap as religion.
your answer will probably be "but i could really feel the outer worldly power when i meditate and i have spent a lot of time doing it"

It's never too late to turn away from stories that are deeply indoctrinated in a society that have no evidence backing them up. Make it known far and wide too, if you wish, since a lot of people will almost assuredly want to claim that "no, no, you actually did really believe before the end" after your passing, with no way for you to tell them they are wrong.

Believing = salvation
Disbelieving = damnation
That's the basic idea of the Abrahamic religions. At least as far as I know. I don't know how many other religions are like this. It's precisely because of this idea that Anubis and Anput(his wife) are my two favorite deities. I guess Osiris too by extension.
And at the same time they will say you have free will.
My parents always add that you have to state your love for Jesus out loud with your mouth to get saved.
They tell this to my nonverbal sister...

The dichotomy you named is one of the basic ideas of christianity and islam. It's not of judaism because they don't have a heaven or hell, they have more something like Hades, a place where the dead people go to.
Only c and i are like that.
Other religions have that you get a better place in the afterlife if you did well morally or socially, depending on the my religion, you can also not end up in the afterlife when certain rituals are mis/used or you get reincarnated as something else based on your previous life and you can atone and improve.
Only christianity and islam are on this level of gasligthing, condemnations, judgements, violence and hatred.
I had an old boss, who said to me, "you know what, we Catholics, we have it made, i can sleep with any woman i want, as long as i go to church the following day and confess and" he wiped his hands "im in the clear to do it all again the following night, and as long as i keep going to church each day im fine"
Now i knew his wife and i knew that this was just rhetorical as i know his wife would have cut his balls off if he actually did it. Its the wink and the nod that gets me, "i can do anything and get away from it because god will forgive me" his view was something like
Everyone is meaningless, why should i seek/ get forgiveness from you, when you are nothing to my god?
I am not a Christian anymore ,but that view is not at all the christianity I have been taught.
Yeah, that never happened buddy.
Former Catholic here. This is not an accepted way for a Catholic to act. Forgiveness by confession requires genuine remorse and the commitment not to repeat the sin. God is obviously supposed to know what's in your heart and mind and won't be fooled.
I think a lot of why a lot of people believe in religion because it gives quick, easy, "comfy" answers that never change (thereby some degree of familiarity and security), compared to science which tells harsher truths, changes (as we learn new things), and in near constant progress.
Edit: before anyone gets on my case, I'm on the side of science, cause learning new things is fun, even at the potential cost of paradigm shifts.
Some of your phrasing on this one is truly perfection, Aron. Thank you for all you do.
"Faith is the most dishonest and auto-deceptive position it is possible to have, because it means assuming and asserting things that are not evidently true or even possible; and then defending than belief against all reason regardless of any amount of evidence to the contrary". That's the tragedy of it in a nutshell. Beautifully put.
Oh that shirt is great 👍
You are a great force for reason.
I recently challenged a thumper in a chat. he asked if presented with evidence, would I change my mind. so I asked him to define "evidence"....he called me mean and blocked me....
"The proof is in the Bible."
"My Bible survived a house fire."
"Do you think nature could have just happened without a designer?"
"The evidence is the numbers for life that if they were different, life wouldn't exist."
I'm not going to type a book here, but yeah he probably meant one of those I listed.
'like' just on the basis of your name.
6 years ago, the conflicting information I had from my religious upbringing and my own logic, came to a head, and I entered the term ''Atheist'' into the search bar. Aron's videos were amongst the first I watched. With a flushed face and rapid heartbeat, because I knew even questioning my beliefs was considered a serious offence, I watched my prior belief's, slowly being deconstructed. Thanks for all you do Aron! appreciate all the effort you put into your videos.
The way Christianity keeps believers under the thumb was one of the reasons I left.
One thing that got me to leave was the whole idea of you have to accept Christ or perish, how he hell are babies, toddlers, and the mentally handicapped supposed to do that, what about every tribe and nation that existed BEFORE Christianity was a burbling whatsit how the hell were they saved, unless we have some sort of time machine they are screwed.

You forgot the blind spot and the fact that the brain can provably make up images. Be very careful if you see someone constantly turning their head at a junction. The brain does not see anything in the movement it makes it up. That is why people say I did not see you because its the truth they did not. Always fix the roadway for a second or so
mammalian eyes also have a big ass blind spot right in the middle of them caused by how the blood vessels bunch ahead of the retina. Octopus don't have this. random error, maintained. most certainly not perfect at all. one could say very poorly "designed" indeed.
@@thomasneal9291 Also caused by the optic nerve which should be behind not in front of the retina. The prostate around the urethra isn't such a wonderful idea either.
5:45 Whenever apologists bring up the evolution of the eye they instantly reveal that they have not done even the most basic research on evolution and can't possibly know anything about it. I say this because the eye was precisely the example that Darwin himself used in his book to address how such complex organs could develop over time through evolutionary processes. He anticipated the eye being used as an argument _against_ evolution and chose it for his example for that very reason.
If apologists cannot bring themselves to read the most fundamental book on the subject, "The Origin of Species", then you know they've failed to study the subject at all.
5:55 And of course Aron Ra is ahead of me, pointing it all out!
That's why I love this channel.
Wake me up and when you go from one religion to another you just swap one set of fairy tales for a new set of fairy tales
Thanks! IMO, this video is one of your best. This format, where you make counterpoints to another person's opinions or comments, is very effective and most enjoyable to me. Keep doing what you're doing.
If eyes are so perfect, why does anyone need glasses? Why does the brain have to interpret an upside-down image to correct for how the eye functions?
Or, because the retina is literally bassackwards, have to filter out the blood vessels in the image. And also make up what's obscured by the optic nerve in FRONT of the retina. If you built a camera that broken and filed a patent for it you'd be laughed out the patent office. Not worshipped as a divine creator of the universe.
And the blind spot! Shocking design fault!
You're not supposed to ask THOSE design questions. If we are supposed to be this apex construction made by a god, why are there all kinds of other animals that have a better sense of smell, taste, touch, hearing, eyesight and other senses that we don't even possess. Directional beacon over thousands of miles, echo location in air or under water, even learning and communicating in the language of other species. Ever heard of Bunny the dog?
What was the creationist point of astigmatism is what I'd like to know!! 😅😅
@@trishamason1855 Yes, all of that too.
I would say both sides of the argument tend to ignore the possibility that God can deliberately limit the eye due to his own preferences and goals. Doesn’t take away from its sophistication and Bible only says man is made in his image, not necessarily identical in every way
Therefore the perceived imperfection of the eye does not undermine its extreme complexity even though it requires an already established faith to attribute it to God
POWERFUL! Take care! Thanks!
I feel like I understand this person's perspective. I remember when I was barely an adult, I had a right wing christian point of view, and I would debate people who disagreed with me on forums and chat rooms, but I felt like the arguments weren't victories enough, so I deliberately sought out the most liberal and progressive thinkers and writers and read their books, eager to rip them apart.
Basically, this guy is challenging you, because he thinks he's found the absolute truth, and he's basically playing chess, trying to checkmate you, so he can feel validated in believing "the truth".
I bet you can probably tell, having read and examined the evidence behind my opponent's arguments back in the day, I stopped being religious and I became a moderate left leaning person on the compass, which the US would consider "far left" (which is nonsense, there's like 4 political parties to the left of me just here in Norway).
This guy isn't looking for the truth, he thinks he's found it, and he's eager to defeat you with the equivalent of a checkmating attempt on move 2 of a chess game. When he finds that he failed to checkmate you with his rhetorical questions, and your answers appear stronger and more convincing than his rhetoric, he won't know what to do. Because he hasn't actually learned how to think yet, or how to play "chess" in this analogy.
Now he's going to go try to find some stronger arguments so he can still checkmate you with easily answered questions, because he won't even feel like he's wrong, yet. He needs to bump into even more answers he can't refute before he starts asking questions that actually seek answers, instead of seeking to stump you.
It might not happen right away, or ever, but if he fails to checkmate every atheist he speaks to, over and over again, he might stop believing he has all the answers and is a better chess player than every atheist. He might even get curious enough to listen to your answers and accept them as valid, though that's a stretch.
When you believe you can't be wrong, being shown to be wrong doesn't even register as such. You trick yourself into believing you are still right, which is part of that auto-deception you keep talking about. I'm supposedly a smart guy, according to an IQ test, but there's arrogance and stubbornness in believing you're right without being able to justify it to anyone but yourself.
Even a generally smart person can trick themselves into believing nonsense if they genuinely think it's the best explanation. You have to find something you actually believe is better before you start to let go. This person might take months, years, or forever to actually believe his line of reasoning is a failure.
But if he does reach that conclusion, something unlocks, and he stops being a pawn of a system of lies, and starts actually using that smart brain he probably has, and then he, like me, can tell the story of how he stopped lying to himself.
At a certain point you stop trying to use "one weird trick to stump every atheist" with "questions atheists can't answer" because atheists can always answer those questions. When you stop trying to win and start trying to learn, it stops being an adversarial position, and learning can happen.
It's easier to be a student when you accept your teacher has something to say worth listening to, as opposed to thinking your goal is to defeat the teacher.
That's very insightful. The fact that you were able and willing to be subject yourself to such self examination is admirable and impressive. I think you and I have some things in common. When I was a younger adult, I was a right leaning bigot. I was not religious, but I was a racist and generally a very angry person. I was also homophobic, which is sad because I have been having secret, homosexual relationships since I was sixteen years old. I kept it very secret, and was full of self hatred. So I turned that hatred outwards and pointed my anger and frustration at those I blamed for my problems. It took years for me to embrace my sexuality and overcome my bigotry and racism. The strange thing is that I am mostly attracted to black men. I couldn't accept that as a younger man, so I turned my attraction to them into hate. I am now similar to you politically, it sounds. I am a left leaning moderate. I am a happy and very content person, who embraces myself and life. Life is much better when you let go of anger and hate.
nice long text, good work!
however, i arrived to different conclusion.
my double adventure, through life and through religion, shows me the most important aspect of it all, life needed cheap labour, religion solved that, made me work cheap
For me, this is one of Aron's best videos. It brings a lot of essentials together, which is a very efficient way of doing revision. Perhaps, all his good points against blind faith have been made elsewhere. Here, it is all in one place and skilfully ordered.

Yep I have to agree there is someone with a fake account saying they are you Mr Aaron ra.
Yeah, it's probably just a bot, asking to get in touch with them so they can scam you. There are a lot of them. There would be a lot more if UA-cam didn't shut them down as well and fast as they can.
Thank-you for this clip. I am still struggling over what I was taught, and what I am now forced to acknowledge. Please keep up your good work, I do appreciate it.

The fact that people claim they serve and follow a so called loving God but they speak of violence and threaten to harm people because they don't believe in their imaginary God...Why don't they let their God handle it?Of course they would say God is using them to do his work even violence...This is a new kind of stupid...
exactly! it is not really about believing, it is about exploiting
@SergiuCosminViorel yes indeed...👍🏾
I read recently that fanaticism is always a sign of repressed doubt.
To me, that means that faith is simply burying your voice of reason in your head because, if you're intelligent, you can't stop it.
Your brains knows that something doesn't add up but since you assume that religious authority are telling you the truth and want what's best for you, you think that you are the problem, you think that if it doesn't add up because it you that has faulty logic and is just not good enough. The thing is, the more you think,the more holes you find, the more faith you need. You can't fathom having told lies
''Burying'' that voice can be anything such as praying or reading an ''holy book''. Think about it, if you're convinced that your beliefs are true, why would you read the bible daily or go to the church every Sunday or pray fives times a day ? Unfortunately for them they can't just stop thinking and will need to do all that crap all over again.
Yeah, there are terms for that. Making things make sense that don't and can't make sense because they're untrue is called rationalizing. Thinking you are the problem in such a case, when you are evidently not, is called gaslighting. Doing and encouraging that constantly, like all religions do because they require it to exist, is abusive. And the more inquiring you are the more abusive religion is.
And church leaders and even many followers will indeed encourage people to pray and go to church a lot and literally say out loud that when people don't they'll lose their faith and leave the church and/or religion.
That also means they don't care if it's true or how the person(s) is/are doing. They care about victimization and the numbers of victims because the more they have the more influence and protection they have against actual reality and honesty.
So yeah, what you said is absolutely true and it means that all theistic religions are intrinsically extremely mentally and emotionally abusive with extreme behavioural and experiential consequences for the victims and the societies they're part of and spread their lies in. And all theists are victims, enablers, and abusers, even when they are just painting an example that believing in a god is not harmful. It always is and it's always abusive. There is not non abusive way to have faith without objectively verifiable evidence.
That also makes _having_ verifiable evidence, that counts as evidence when defined as pointing to one fact, sometimes in context of more evidence, a great litmus test. If you have none, it's not even worth considering as a hypothesis.
If we are mistaken about what the evidence points to, having more people verify and scrutinize it helps correcting that. So if we wish to be less wrong and more correct, for instance to help people to unnecessarily die and/or suffer less, we should always welcome scrutiny and criticism. Rejecting those things is a huge red flag and should be an instant invitation to get all the tools and people out to scrutinize it to pieces. If it then still holds up, it's probably true, like gravity and evolution.
I like "Consider accepting things on degrees of certainty, rather than absolute certainty." it's really the only honest way to go.
This is a great summation by Aron of reason over faith. Thanks, Aron, for carrying the torch and being strong enough to ward off the true believers.
This is gleaned from 'Absolute Zero Gravity: The Scientific Joke Book'. Paul Dirac, the mathematician, was known for his inimitable lecture style; he would enter the lecture chamber, fill the blackboard with equations, and leave without saying a word. This resulted in the spreading of a proverb around his campus: "...there is no God. And Dirac is his prophet."
I enjoyed Arons Muslim and Christian debate's.
Real-eyes-realize-real-lies.
Digging this channel!
Another well prepared and logical presentation. Love the channel. Keep ‘em coming.
Nicely done Aron - Luv the shirt 💜
❤❤❤🙏🏽🙏🏽🙏🏽
Always look fwd to your presentations
Yeah, that’s a nice sentiment. What’s with the praying hands🌏🌪??
Absolutly brillint aron
I applaud your patience in presenting the same answers to questions that you receive over and over. I think that you answered each of this young man's questions in a patient and compassionate way.
Awesome! Love your shirt Aron! 👏👏👍👍
Going down the rabbit hole of excuses for Muhammad's marriage to Aisha is depressing. Many Muslims really do defend Islam no matter what.
that was offensive to rabbits
:- )
Once again Aron erudite and incredibly directed
ARON BRO ITS ME YOUR HUGE FAN I love you stuff bro please keep it up lead us away from blind faith but to the love of truth ❤

Though many of us have heard you answer similar questions, it’s still interesting. I just wish whoever poses the questions, actually takes the time to comprehend your responses.✌🏾
"Mom, can we get the undertaker?"
"No honey, we have the undertaker at home"
Aron is better than Mean Mark broken streak.
In unison: "We're self contaaaiiiiined!"
I needed this, Aron you are awesome 😎
You have no idea how important is your work in the world right now. Religion is a plague, mainly Islam, and no one talks about it enough. Please keep your work, the world needs it.
@LesBlase No-one-talks-about-it-enough. You skipped an important word.
Damn, these are the dumbest questions I've seen in a long time. This guy is hopelessly lost.
My faith is in ME, and yes, even I fail. But at least I'll admit it and I won't hurt you.
you do not owe to anyone, to be without fault, you only owe to not excell in that direction.
Also, the majority of these “answers” from Muslim apologists or others are usually either one of the following:
1. Lies
2. Deflections
3. Misrepresentations.
4. Tu Quoques
5. Red herrings
6. Abhorrent or illogical.
perfectly done AronRa, there is no reason to coddle religious fools. They deserve to hear truth, since it is absent mostly in their belief systems.
well, in fact no one deserves the comfort of not having his/her ideas challenged. all should endure the weight of their limitations, children and elderly included. the brain must be put to work
Question to any Muslim seeing this: When does the Quran become so holy that it allow to murder someone that burn it?
Like is the PDF that contain the text of the Quran holy and is it a sin to delete that file after it is sent to the press?
Is it the ink or the paper that make the printed Quran holy?
All the printed pages that was poorly printed, is it a sin to recycle them even they can contain the full texts of 50 Qurans?
What if a bookstore can not sell all Qurans and then run out of business and need to throw away with the knowledge they may be burned to generate heating for a town?
How do the "Holy book" thing nowadays, when do it become holy without some been blessing them?
:- ) smart. Food for thought. In other words: muslims probably won't care.
you understand what is important. it is harder, more costly, to "print" a human. even if that human is a detestable sinner, the "holy" things are cheaper
The Quran isn't holy?.
Prove all of this to be false, then?.

Was muhammad a scientist?. Did anyone during the 7th century know about this?. NO, yet the Quran described this 1400 years before scientists actually discovered the reasons for this.
Now, who did all of this, if not GOD?.
Deny that you idiot.
About there's 50 different versions of the Quran?.
The oldest complete Quranic manuscript is the Codex Mashad dating back to the 7th century with all 114 chapters.
www.islamic-awareness.org/quran/text/mss/codexmashhad
Even the hafs and warsh Quran's, despite their differences in dialects are still in the language that the Quran was first revealed in Arabic, and still both have 114 chapters in it.
In fact there are plenty of Quranic manuscripts as far back as the 7th century that match word for word the Qurans we have today.

There are no variants here.
Where does it say in the Quran that you can murder someone for burning it, considering that millions know the whole of it off by heart?.
All religion: I don't know, therefore god.
oversimplification!
rather:
All religion: shut up, accept lower income, pay more tax!
Just found your channel. You are a great man, thank you for your content.
Great words best ive ever heard in those matters. Brilliant!! Thank you❤
Aron you've really helped me through my cognitive dissonance on religion thank you.
When you talked about the different religions telling their flock not to listen to anybody who tries to persuadethem with logical arguments and facts, it resonated with me. I'm an ex Jehovah's Witness and the leader's say to not even engage with anyone once they feel their faith threatened by logical reasoning. They're told to avoid like the plague ex Jehovah's Witnesses who start speaking to them, the leaders are afraid out of their mind that what ex Jehovahs witnesses say will make perfect sense but what they say is always coupled with " God will clear up everything we don't understand ". The fact is the members ignore false teachings they've made for 150 years. They say they speak for God but then revise approximately 50% of their teachings from their history. I got tired of ignoring yellow and red flags under penalty of destruction and no eternal life on earth. At least they didn't teach hell is a burning place. I only feared that after I deep dived every other Christian denomination and Islam lol. I've given 40 years of my life being terrified I'm not worshipping God right. I've finally just recently felt a lot of relief, especially from watching your logical reasonings for so many absurd Bible passages. Thank you again. I spent 12 years deconstructing but you' Araon are putting the nail in the coffin of believing something that contradicts itself so badly.
Thank you for your academic approach
Aron, the words on your t-shirt just gave me a new t-shirt wording idea that you might like:
Holler At Bar:
"THERE IS NO GOD
BUT ALAS:
There is gin!"
Hope you get all the puns.
If I could get a quote printed on a T-shirt, It would be
Unless Your Last Name Is Dredd, You Don't Get To Judge Me!
Medieval and Ancient Magicians were Alchemists which founded Chemistry, Astrology founded Astronomy, and priests and scribes were revered for their ability to do math and read and write. This Chromebook I am writing on is a magical device
well said and i love what your doing.
Love the T-shirt...
AronRa still with his hits. Thank you so much.
The word "Islam" means?>>> "Submission"
bro submissed to it, R.I.P. :(
Kinky
Muhammad the bottom
"Well ackshually..."
Yeah, actually it also means peace, but there's a little issue with that. Muslims don't use the term the same way we do. To muslims, peace is synonymous to and always reliant on submission.
When a muslim uses that excuse it's the exact same tactic as when any theists says that we all have faith and that it means _being confident in._ Except we don't use faith meaning being confident without good reason or evidence, and we wouldn't use the word peace to mean having paid protection money to the maffia so they'll leave us alone for the time being. We'd call that extortion, and blind, baseless faith.
@@OnlyScienceRules Yep, even after death "slavery for eternity"
Imagine how advanced we would be with out religion
