I think you just need better examples of "good" atheists than Bill Gates, Warren Buffet, and James Cameron.
Wasn't it discovered that Mother Teresa had some journals where she questioned the existence of God?

Who would you recommend?

Mother Teresa is both a poor example of an atheist and a poor example of a moral person. She used the sick people in her "care" to collect donations and then used the funds to evangelize instead of getting medical care for her patients. You should watch Hell's Angel if you haven't already.

>> ^VoodooV:

We're equating giving to charity with morality?
I hope I'm not going out on too much of a limb (ooops, I hope that isn't too similar to my ape cousins) when I suggest that donating money and morality are two very separate things.

Wasn't it discovered that Mother Teresa had some journals where she questioned the existence of God? That would have a deeper impact IMO. Atheists really need to fire their PR manager.


No, well, sort of, the video creator is giving simple, easy to digest cases of people who are atheists and are clearly NOT idiots, and also have done great good. It's hard to say that the donations they make are not morally good. Sure you can definitely be moral and not donate, and you could donate and not be moral, but as a quick 'just think about your inane comment' fire back against the moron that is Steve they are very good examples.

Make sure to watch for the James Cameron cameo near the end!

Very well said, notarobot.
"Your expectations are unfair. This is a low/no budget film with almost everything done by two people, not a billion dollar James Cameron film."

Still doesn't explain why he said, "We don't use that word in America."
Little shit's Canadian I'm embarrassed to say. Apparently he's embarrassed to say it too.


I didn't even care about the rest of the video once I heard that. How can he pull a James Cameron on a country that, I would venture, is better loved than the Great States? Couldn't say it better, Drachen, what a little shit.

Hey! It's the movie I was looking forward to last year when that stupid James Cameron movie came out. :-)

or..
"oh thats it man..you're dog food".
ha..i'll stop.i could do this all day.
one of my favorite films and a rarity when a sequel is as good,if not better,than the original.
close call though.
ridley scott..james cameron......cloooooose call.

No, I'm saying *you* have nothing to brag about in your childhood. He does.

And please spare me with your rehash of Cameron's well known list of flaws. Many people have great flaws. Steve Jobs is well known to be aggressive and tempermental. Einstein beat his wife. The Beatles compared themselves to Jesus. Personal flaws have no relevance to their accomplishments.

And you're asking about Cameron's successes? Are you fucking kidding me? Do I have to list for you which films of his won which Oscars, or which are preserved in the Library of Congress? Do I have to explain to you his impact and influence on the film industry, or underwater exploration, or why he is on the NASA advisory council? Are you really that blinded by your own bias or are you just plain ignorant?

And who the hell said we have to like the guy? How immature are you that you still don't understand that respect and admiration are not the same thing? "up on Cameron's jock" - you sound like you should be posting about xboxes on 4chan. Dismissing his achievements because you hate his attitude is just childish and pathetic.

>> ^Trancecoach:
Oh please spare me. Are you suggesting that his diatribe about his childhood was about his "humble lack of ability?" Sounded like aggrandizement to me. And which part of his "success," aside from financial, are you referring to? His FOUR (4) failed marriages? His reputation for being temperamental, selfish, and cruel to his colleagues?
I do not hold myself superior in the slightest. He's a different guy with different struggles than I, so there's no comparison. But I do find his glaring egotism a little hard to take. Not to mention the blatantly hypocritical nature of his films (anti-tech content in hyper-tech productions),
But, you know, if you want to be all up on Cameron's jock, then, well that's your prerogative. As I'm sure you'll agree, there's no accounting for taste.
>> ^mentality:
>> ^Trancecoach:
I'm sure you didn't mean it as such, but I'm taking this as a compliment.
Financial success does not equal success is my book, and if I can avoid his FAIL by even a fraction, my life will have been a major success.

>> ^mentality:
>> ^Trancecoach:
Wow he was a scientist and an artist as a child. How precocious!
and humble too.
Fail

Your greatest success in life will never amount to a tiny fraction of his fail.


Yes, you can talk about how you avoided such pitfalls and your humble lack of lack of ability as a child the next time you do your own TED talk.
And the statement still holds true even if you completely ignore his financial successes.
Also, how amazingly humble of you to completely dismiss another's achievements and hold yourself superior. Ironic.
