Name: Eric
Age: 22
I'm a college student; history major. Shooting on becoming a professor one day, writing books, living the scholarly life. Yet this is contradicted by my beer buddies and friends with no ambitions but alcoholic beverages in their sights. Heh.

My favorite responses to videos here on YT, so true:

"People, we are living in a high-tech revolution, a stage unthinkable by our human predecessors even 50 years ago. I know that its hard to realize sometimes, but it is true.

Creationism is the last desperate attempt by the three monotheistic faiths to fight the expansion of science, general knowledge, and human self-empowerment."

"Save it MeX2004. Judaism, Islam, and Christianity are all going down. Look around you dude. Do you know what age you are living in? We are living in a high-tech revolution fostered by science. Science is the death of religion, because science proves that many statements in the "infallible" holy books supposedly written from the influence of an "all-knowing" God contain fallacious scientific errors.

I repeat, science is the death of your religion and others. Welcome to reason, enjoy your stay."

"Mr. Conservative Glenn here has it all wrong, and so do the American liberals. Policing and/or going to war with the Islamic world are not our only options and are by far not the greatest weapons we have to combat Islam.

Islam is a set of ideas that are believed to be absolutely true. Once you expose those ideas as fraudulent by using modern science, their whole belief system comes crashing down."
Country: United States
Interests and Hobbies: I think my Youtube name gives away one of my biggest hobbies. Beer pong is another. Hah.
Movies and Shows: I love tons of different movies, especially old movies from when I was a kid, like King of New York, Tango and Cash, the original Batman, the original Punisher, etc. Comedies like Half Baked, the Naked Gun series, Dodgeball, are all priceless in my mind. I also like Asian flicks like the Chinese director John Woo's the Killer and Japanese director Akira Kurosawa's Ran. For TV shows, I watch Comedy Central a lot, shows like Drawn Together, South Park, Daily Show, Colbert Report, etc. I love it whenever they have Jim Gaffigan's stand up comedy. Hilarious. No one ever talks about it anymore, but I still think the old Ben Stiller show is hilarious.
Music: Metal! In all its forms: thrash, death, speed, melodic, hardcore, hybrid, etc. The only type of metal I can't stand is that ultra-gothic, dark keyboard-infested Black Metal. Sorry to Black Metal fans, not my thing. But I also like old school Rock n Roll, Jazz, Blues, some Hip Hop, etc.
Books: I'm a fan of Chinese history, and East Asian history in general interests me. This includes books such as Charles Benn's Everyday Life in the Tang Dynasty, and Jacques Gernet's Daily Life in China on the Eve of the Mongol Invasion, 1250-1276.

I think we're gonna be goood friends =D

Doesn't that "inner morality" thing you mentioned prove God (or at least, somewhat intelligent design) was behind the creation...?

Look at the two extremes:

-"ZOMG, liek, I am teh benev0lent!! EVery1 in HEavan, K~?! <3
-"I SMITE THEE TO HELL. YOUR CITIES WILL BE OVERRUN. THE ARMY OF ANGELS SHALL STRIP YOUR PLANET OF IT'S VIRTUE. OUR METEORS, WIL BLOT OUT THE SUN11!1".

*Ahem*

Can't a moderate religion between these extremes somehow work with Science ; / ?? Albert Einstein was pressured to give his opinion on religion and had to clarify to them so many times what he believed.

lol i was just joking about my last comment you guys took it seriously. just ignore whatever i said.

The only thing we can do is observe our natural world with scientific principles, build upon the tools and knowledge we already have so that those after us may prosper, better our living conditions in the here and now, better our secular education, and in general chip in our two bits of effort while we're still around on this planet.

Furthermore, I think morality is something that is innate within us and is reinforced through our human experience. When we know something is painful or wrong to ourselves, we know it is painful and wrong to others.

I thank both of you for taking the time to make comments.

First of all, I am an agnostic, not a full-blown atheist, because I do know that I could never prove or disprove the existence of God or any higher deity for that matter. Nor can I prove or disprove that the Big Bang was initiated by some higher power. However, we do know that species are guided by evolution, and were not just created out of the blue as they are today; so that flies in the face of all our pre-modern theologies (that and many other scientific and logically-proven facts that invalidate the teachings of many religions).

"finally someone like me. yea man i dont believe in any religions either they're just ways for poor people to look forwards to something. i believe in scientific truth what i cant i see doesn't exist. until proven otherwise no gods exist period. i reccomend to all fellow human beings to enjoy your lives to the best of your abilities because once we die there is nothing except complete oblivion. whatever gives you pleasure do it whether it may be getting drunk, or having gay sex because life is too short to waste worshiping fake and stupid gods and goddesses"
Hey dude, can you prove God DOESN'T exist with Science...?

Can you,

-Prove what was here before the big-bang?
-How the hell the big bang activated?
-The intermediate stages between supposed evolutionary chains...?
-Why we have taboos?

And you telling people to live their lives as they please is just what Satan/Lucifer/Devil etc. wants people to do...

VERY good work!!

There are people that have used religion to control others.

The control is coming to an end...religion kills!

ISLAM IS THE WORST OF THE WORST!!!
