OMG thats creepy... I couldn't watch more than ten second of it. I'm a Christian , I have a feeling they're using some sort of brainwash tactic or something. Brrrr...

Edit: True Christians aren't like that, they express free will and acknowledge that its a gift from God, these people have obviously been forced into Chritianity through some psychological tactic.

Don't blame Jesus for this.

Jesus was busy setting up the microphones for a KISS cover band at a college bar in Reno.

Then he scored some weed off some forty year old white guy with dreadlocks and brought it to the back room along with the blonde in the green tube top that the cat guy pointed towards during the drum solo.

Being a roadie is hard, and Jesus is only doing it because he has a criminal record going back a couple thousand years, and its hard for him to get jobs, you know?

Excuse me, but it seems that some of the most important developments in human history (e.g. Human rights such as freedom of religion, freedom of speech, freedom of self government) stemmed from the Enlightenment, a departure from religious thought.

Just thought I'd throw that out there.

And almost every war in history has been caused by politics or the desire for resources...that's more deaths than anything religion has ever done. Hell, the openly atheist regimes of the world are the bloodiest in history by a long shot...the Holocaust itself was small compared to what the USSR or China did.

Even so, it's not a valid argument to begin with. Religion doesn't exist in a vaccum; it's an idea that can be abused just like any other. Getting rid of it helps absolutely nothing and actually can have a negative effect in the long run.

And the enlightentment, it can be argued, stemmed from the protestant reformation, at which point in time people where given the choice to think freely, and individually, which led to many great thinkers arising.:)

And some of the most important ones in human history stemmed from the Middle Ages, Renaissance and the Reformation, one of the strongest periods of religious influence in human history. Not to mention the long tradition of religious belief before it during the classical era... the greatest philosophers, inventors and mathematicians of the ancient Greeks and Romans were almost all religiously devout.

Not to mention the Enlightenment has its roots in the Christian Humanists like Erasmus, whose ideas were brought about by the religious Protestant reformation. Don't forget Gutenberg, either; his first printing press was designed to mass produce Bibles.

Don't forget that religions played a major role in the fight against slavery, the fight against totalitarianism in Germany and the Eastern Bloc, and human rights activism around the world during the 20th century.

But I am - at least as contrasted with reasonable secular alternatives (i.e. better things than the atomistic selfish capitalist individualism our society currently glorifies.)

Religion is very good at deluding good people into thinking that it's okay to treat other people horrifically... our natural generosity and compassion, put into environments where it can actually prosper, can do the rest on its own.

So you think that all non-religious people are inclined to starve their children or betray their friends?

In general, we avoid acting cruelly to other human beings for reasons other than "God said so" - we have a natural sense of empathy with others, and recognition that we would not like to be treated in certain ways translates into recognition of the rights and dignity of others.

I don't believe it says anywhere in the Bible that it's wrong to slowly torture a dog or cat to death, delighting in every pained squeal... but doesn't the idea revolt you anyway?

Sure, but if empathy for others drives us to passively respect others' rights so as to avoid causing them suffering or indignity, would it not also similarly drive us to actively correct circumstances that cause suffering and indignity?

Perhaps not as much... but this is a general precept of the human preference for what is convenient, and not exclusive to secular motives for morality.

Overall, whether we proceed by paying attention to our immediate moral sentiments (love and compassion for others) or by adhering to a more abstract moral duty that we derive from a careful rational analysis of our moral intuitions, secular bases for morality generally give us much better answers than reliance on any external authority (God, the Bible, our church/synagogue/mosque leader, whatever) does. Insofar as religion encourages us to rest our moral judgments on the dictates of external authorities, it is problematic.

Yeah, that sucked, but it was also politically motivated.

But people use religion as an excuse not to figure out what is really happening. I cite geocentrism and creationism.

People can use whatever they want to deny the truth.

Just look at Lysenkoism or the utter destruction of the social sciences and literature in the Communist world. They were supposedly the "scientific" societies, and yet their educational systems were utterly warped by Communist ideology. I mean, this would be the same as the US mandating the teaching of creationism, and only creationism, as science and jailing or killing anyone who disagrees.

And religion was the legitimizer of monarchy, many human rights violations, and, yes, slavery itself.

Religion has been intertwined with politics since forever. The removal of religion would have had no effect on the existence of monarchy or slavery; the ties between the government and religion were often symbolic at best.

Sorry about the joke.

It was well done, and provoked good discussion. Nice job.

For once I have to side with the theists on this one. Religion in the west has had a history of perceived barbarism that, in many cases, may just have easily have sprung up in the absence of faith. The Crusades would've become nothing more than a cultural and territorial struggle, for instance, and we've had plenty of "Inquisitions" since the Catholic one, involving non-theist ideologies (the gulags, for instance, and Communist reeducation camps).

Some of the greatest and most treasured art, literature, and, yes, science, of the modern age has sprung up because of religion. The Catholic Church, the Reformation, and the Counter-reformation led directly to the Baroque era, which brought us such famous artists as Rembrandt and Vermeer, not to mention Caravaggio.

While Gallileo may have been persecuted by the Church, Europe's interest in astronomy was actually STARTED by the Catholic Church, in their effort to devise a more accurate calendar system (or so a professor who teaches the History of Technology at Drexel University once said. I can't really cite a source on this that you can all go to and say "Oh, ok, it says it right there.")


And personally, I'd have to say the biggest argument against religion has nothing to do with religious warfare. Just look at religion-sponsored slavery in history, and at the rigid and inflexible Caste system of pre-Independence India.

EDIT: Sorry, wasn't planning on an essay here, kinda got a bit carried away in the momentum of it.

You go to the church, you kiss the cross
You will be saved at any cost
You have your own reality

You spend your life just kissing ass
A trait thats grown as time has passed
You think the world will end today
You praise the lord, its all you say

Jesus saves, listen to you pray
You think youll see the pearly gates
When death takes you away

For all respect you cannot lust
In an invisible man you place your trust
Indirect dependency
Eternal attempt at amnesty
He will decide who lives and dies
Depopulate satanas rise
You will be an accessory
Irreverence and blasphemy

I've seen the preview to Jesus Camp and I found it incredibly freaky. With that and the little I could stand of this longer version I was really unnerved. I have no problem seeing these kids growing up to massacre all the "unbelievers" if they come to believe it is God's will. Fanatics.The head of the camp did speak favorably of the Muslim Extremist means to indoctrinate children and how effective it was. That's why she was using it on American children "because, excuse me, we have the TRUTH!"

Slovak, left winger for the NYIslanders, and still playing. Pretty good player too.

Now all we need is a defender or goalie named Jesus or God...
Hehe :D

Of course they have the truth. How else can they excuse themselves from brainwashing kids into crazed religious fanatics? After all, there are two kinds of people in the world. Those who love Jesus and those who don't. They are only loving Jesus very seriously.

Well, you heard what they said - they don't even need to argue it. They know the Truth and it is indisputable. Unfortunately, rational disputation with such individuals is no longer possible.

Ah God, I hope these kids don't go to public school, because their life are going to be a living hell.

"Today we're going to learn about Evolution!"

"Excuse me teacher, Evolution is a lie created by Satan!"

*class snickers*

"Actually the theory came from Charles Darwin."

"Who was Satan!"

*class laugh*

"Young man, you either sit down and shut up or go to the principal office!"

"Then you're Satan, because you don't want to hear the word of God!"

"That's it, off to the office you little brat."

And he also has a cult of faithful sheep. God, what is wrong with these people? The other day I got into a debate with about we ought to treat individuals like these - I simply said, treat them like the idiots they are. Others were shocked. This just reinforces my confidence in what I said. Oh, and not the Jesusfreak towards the end!

Hallelujah! :fluffle:

iit might worry me but for the fact that atheists and agnostics are growing in numbers that it's only a matter of time before we are the majority on the planet...religion cannot survive the enlightenment of science and the elimination of ignorance...

I couldn't watch all of that. It made me so sad. They are just kids being yelled at every day in the name of religion. I want to kill that woman.

Not a fan of the government, so no. :p It does show how serious they are though at smashing cups. :)

Yup, ol' Pastor Ted there. Incidentally, this documentary was released two months before the scandal that caused Haggard's ousting.

It's okay guys, I'm Catholic and I just got off the ol' prayer phone with the big divinity himself. His official comment on this whole mess is that he in no way endorses it and wishes to know, quote: "What the f***" are they smoking?"
