It's also funny that we're supposed to take orders from Laydock to 'keep it civil' given that he's already demonstrated that he can't discuss religion without getting emotional and purposefully mis-states other's arguments
the guy in the videos is a douche with an enormous chip on his shoulder, especially towards Islam, slagging off every Muslim as violent and unstable. What an asshole.
As far as I care people can think whatever they want about god or whatever their personal religion entails. But I don't think the mass of atheists trying to put them down and covert them the their line of thought with snide remarks and insults are any better than anyone else who tries to impose their religion on others. Ultimately every major religion amounts to one central idea, don't be an asshole. Sadly a huge number of people are unable to admit that whether they're Catholic, Jewish, Hindu, Muslim, or just about anything else their religion endorses peace and tolerance.
*sigh* Atheist zealotry is no different than that of any other belief. Nothing good can come of this thread, since it's opening statement is basically, "Think as I do or you're stupid." Lock please.
(can someone post a pic that's in one of the more infamously bad threads that has a ship sailing into a thunderstorm with the caption "i like where this thread's going" for me?)

Here ye be...
Edit: Shit. Got jacked due to a slow upload speed. I shall go sob now.
Only if you can't argue with the guys' reasoning I suppose.
Also I am very passionate about this subject and I think it is something that should we should be able to have a discussion about.
Seriously, if you can argue with some of the things he says please do.
It's not like he's "GOD", but I just like (and understand) his thinking.

Big "duh" here, and I haven't watched his videos (I don't need to), but it's infinitely easier to talk down about something than it is to talk something up. Therefore, people need to shut up. All people.
Atheism is nothing. It's a lot easier to 'pretend' there's nothing than it is to 'pretend' there's something. People who do believe in something however should really know what they're believing in.
In the end, it all comes down to humans are stupid. Every last one. What a surprise.

Atheism is nothing, where people are pretending there IS something.
Why would you pretend there is something when there just isn't any evidence it even exists?
And please, watch (some of at least) his vids. They make sense. (well to me anyway)

who says i want to argue? i have no idea what points that dude raises other than 1 vid which i had previously seen about sharia law. why don't YOU go to the effort of typing up his main points and write a mini-essay on the subject.
you don't know me, or my views on religion
but as soon as you type "LOL @ the god idea" i don't think it's gonna be a conversation worth having.
(normally i don't have a problem with shit theads, i just thought you were a cut above that sort of stuff)

There isn't evidence of anything, technically. Everything is perception. Nothing is real, etc.
Some things are unexplainable. Some things exist yet we cannot see them. Some things we see, yet they don't really exist. Things surely exist that we don't even yet know about. Who's to say what is true and what isn't, some people who think they actually have an idea? Haha. What a joke.
And what the heck, learn to quote.

the only pro-religious guy on the board that was annoying was fighter17, but to his credit he was only a kid, and he had brain damage (his words - n-g.com).
