uh... not quite.

Mine says "Prosecution of GW Bush! Ultimate Iraq War website!"

Mine says "University of Phoenix".

I like the way he says Islamist and Islamiphobia.

Saudi Arabia is funding the Sunni insurgency. They will not allow Iraq to be controlled by Shia, ever. As in never.

The Shia outnumber the Sunni. It is only a matter of time before a shiite strongman takes over & finishes the ethnic cleansing.

The US will wash its hands of this problem in less than 2 years.

I highly doubt we're ever going to leave.

You didn't exactly put it in the best way, but I do agree that these guys do not do atheism a favor with their condescending demeanor and their lack of addressing the fundamental need for faith and all the hope and service that it brings people, particularly among those that were not born with silver spoons in their mouths and that didn't go to Cambridge.

I like the way you said it, baleen. Some of these hardcore atheists seem to forget that atheism is a belief structure too. Smug confidence is counterproductive.

>>>atheists seem to forget that atheism is a belief structure too

No, it's not.

Your retarded "NOT BELIEVING IN GOD IS A BELIEF TOO HURF DURF" bullshit is one of the most stupid arguments in the history of thinking.

If that were the case, it could also be applied to "NOT BELIEVING IN UNICORNS IS ALSO A BELIEF SYSTEM, HAHA, GOTCHA YOU UNICORN DISBELIEVERS!!! YOU ARE THE SAME AS US UNICORN BELIEVERS!!!!1".

One thing is the act of believing/disbelieving in something, another thing is a "belief system". Islam, Christianity or any other religion is a "belief system". Not believing in one does not constitute a separate belief system.

Adam, the thing is that a lot of vocal atheists treat their atheism the same way that religious people treat their religion. So while there may be differences, they're functionally acting the same.

One thing I've noticed is that the behavior is always obnoxious, even if the True Believers think that they're exempt for having The Truth on their side. Dig?

Yes, very well put Baleen.

I don't see this guy saying everyone should convert to atheism. What he's saying is that many radical muslim groups are using white guilt to promote themselves and their values in Western countries, which is absolutely true. He's also saying that people shouldn't chicken out and give in to this kind of bullshit.
The fact that he's a smug bastard and the fact that you don't like him does not change that what he's saying is essentially true.
In regards to people needing religion, I agree, humans at a general level do need religion. However, I don't see (at least not in this video) him saying anything against that. What he's saying is that radical muslim groups are using the racism label at their convenience, and this is working out for them because Western society is so absolutely concerned with not offending anyone (God forbid!).
