All Your Religions Are False

Joel Grus sums up why your religions are false at the recent BIL (Benevolence. Illuminating. Logic.) conference in Long Beach, CA.

It gets funnier as it gets along. I don't think there are many religions he failed to mock and ridicule left.

Occasionally borderline racist and rude. Has some good points though. Points out peoples ignorance whilst reinforcing his own. I think hope is a good thing to have though.

youmakekittymadsays...

obviously this is not the point.

the common thread here is that none of these things or anything resembling them should be followed with the kind of absolute certainty (or determined uncertainty, you're welcome agnostics) that most are characterized by.

or, to put it more simply, a rabid, preachy environmentalist is just as deserving of a swift kick in the ass as a rabid, preachy mormon. rigid dogma is unattractive, no matter what it's about.

Dude environmentalism?
WHAT!
So in order to not be religious I have to pollute and poison the world for future generations?
You are a jerk.

Religions are a mind controlling mental virus with which infected parents infect their children. If religions never existed the human species would have already evolved in happiness and wellbeing beyong anything we can even imagine. This I know, because I am GOD!! Send me your MONEY!!!

Peyote helped me find the sandwich I ate 30 minutes prior to eating peyote. I found it about six times. After that, it was all trippy lights and police reports. Officer, as God is my witness, your German Shepard was speaking the Nine True Names of God in a language unheard since Bhaal was confined to the Pit of Hell. You might wanna contact a vet about that or something. Also, can I have my clothes back? Thanks.

I liked the video, but I wonder what the point of the presentation was? I mean, it was entertaining, but I find the videos we've been sifting from that guy with the british accent have a lot more logic and substance than this one.

Don't get me wrong, I was entertained, but really when you go back and think about it, the video is just him making fun of religion in a slightly thoughtful way... and I stress the word slightly there...

It really isnt that funny. I chuckled once or twice. His descriptions of these religions are at the most base ignorant level but I'm pretty sure that is the point.

But this IS the sift. "Anti religion video?! Hell ya, upvote that shit"
