Rationalism Breeds Atheism Religion Debate 2015-07-11 | Also check out 100 Renowned Academics Speaking About God: youtube.com/watch?v=De6j01DCsZMThe more scientifically literate, intellectually honest and objectively skeptical a person is, the more likely they are to disbelieve in anything supernatural, including gods. This is a compilation of some of the best examples of such individuals with their thoughts on the divine. They include in order of appearance:Lord Martin Rees is the Astronomer Royal and Master of Trinity College, Cambridge. He was President of the Royal Society between 2005 and 2010.Dr Sam Harris is an American author, neuroscientist and CEO of Project Reason. He holds a PhD in neuroscience from UCLA, and a BA in philosophy from Stanford University.Professor Richard Feynman was an American physicist who received the Nobel Prize in Physics in 1965.Professor Noam Chomsky is an Institute Professor and professor emeritus of linguistics at MIT and well known as one of the fathers of modern linguistics.Stephen Fry is an English actor, screenwriter, author, playwright, journalist, poet, comedian, television presenter and film director.Professor Leonard Susskind is Professor of Theoretical Physics at Stanford University, and widely regarded as one of the fathers of string theory.Sir Bertrand Russell was an English philosopher who was awarded the Nobel Prize in Literature in 1950. He is considered one of the founders of analytic philosophy and is widely held to be one of the 20th century's premier logicians.Dr Richard Carrier is an American historian who received his PhD in ancient history from Columbia University.Sir David Attenborough is a broadcaster and naturalist. He studied Natural Sciences at Cambridge, and his distinguished career in broadcasting now spans more than 50 years.Professor Neil deGrasse Tyson is an American astrophysicist, the Frederick P. Rose Director of the Hayden Planetarium at the American Museum of Natural History and Visiting Research Scientist and Lecturer at Princeton University. He attended Harvard College (B.A), University of Texas (M.A.) and Columbia University (M.Phil.), (Ph.D.). Professor Vilayanur Ramachandran is a neuroscientist, Director of the Center for Brain and Cognition, and Professor in the Department of Psychology and the Neurosciences Graduate Program at the University of California, San Diego. He obtained his PhD from Trinity College, Cambridge.It seems plainly obvious in the 21st century that rational thought inevitably breeds atheism.All credit for this video goes to Dr Jonathan T.

Is Slavery in the Bible? Religion Debate 2015-07-03 | This video explores what the Bible God really says about slavery, as well as what Civil War Christians thought about the issue. See below for additional resources:Video created by Discern4. Check out his channel for more great videos! http://www.youtube.com/user/Discern4The Bible and Slavery: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Bible_and_slaveryA few choice bible quotes: http://www.evilbible.com/Slavery.htm Links to pro-slavery arguments from southern Christians:Pastor Thorton Stringfellow: http://docsouth.unc.edu/church/string/string.htmlE.W. Warren: http://docsouth.unc.edu/imls/warren/warren.htmlGeorge Fitzhugh: http://docsouth.unc.edu/southlit/fitzhughcan/fitzcan.html"Slavery was established by decree of Almighty God...it is sanctioned in the Bible, in both Testaments, from Genesis to Revelation...it has existed in all ages, has been found among the people of the highest civilization, and in nations of the highest proficiency in the arts." Jefferson Davis, President of the Confederate States of America. "There is not one verse in the Bible inhibiting slavery, but many regulating it. It is not then, we conclude, immoral." Rev. Alexander Campbell "The right of holding slaves is clearly established in the Holy Scriptures, both by precept and example." Rev. R. Furman, D.D., Baptist, of South Carolina "The doom of Ham has been branded on the form and features of his African descendants. The hand of fate has united his color and destiny. Man cannot separate what God hath joined." United States Senator James Henry Hammond. Quotation from the 21st century: "If we apply sola scriptura to slavery, I'm afraid the abolitionists are on relatively weak ground. Nowhere is slavery in the Bible lambasted as an oppressive and evil institution: Vaughn Roste, United Church of Canada.The quotation by Jefferson Davis, listed above, reflected the beliefs of many Americans in the 19th century. Slavery was seen as having been "sanctioned in the Bible." They argued that:1. Biblical passages recognized, controlled, and regulated the practice.2. The Bible permitted owners to beat their slaves severely, even to the point of killing them. However, as long as the slave lingered longer than 24 hours before dying of the abuse, the owner was not regarded as having committed a crime, because -- after all -- the slave was his property. 3. Paul had every opportunity to write in one of his Epistles that human slavery -- the owning of one person as a piece of property by another -- is profoundly evil. His letter to Philemon would have been an ideal opportunity to vilify slavery. But he wrote not one word of criticism.4. Jesus could have condemned the practice. He might have done so in one of his many parables mentioning slaves. But there is no record of him having said anything negative about the institution.Eventually, the abolitionists gained sufficient power to eradicate slavery in most areas of the world by the end of the 19th century. Slavery was eventually recognized as an extreme evil. But this paradigm shift in understanding came at a cost. Christians wondered why the Bible was so supportive of such an immoral practice. They questioned whether the Bible was entirely reliable. Perhaps there were other practices that it accepted as normal which were profoundly evil -- like genocide, torturing prisoners, raping female prisoners of war, forcing rape victims to marry their rapists, executing religious minorities, burning some prostitiutes alive, etc. The innocent faith that Christians had in "the Good Book" was lost -- never to be fully regained.http://www.religioustolerance.org/sla_bibl.htmMusic by Derek Oldman - Venus Opposite Mars (Chillish 303 Mix)http://www.jamendo.com/en/album/15520Prophecy - http://www.jamendo.com/en/album/15520Also be sure to check out an excellent series called "The Slavery Dialogs" by Discovering Religion: http://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLABDCAD2EB0C22A53&feature=plcpCopyright Disclaimer Under Section 107 of the Copyright Act 1976, allowance is made for "fair use" for purposes such as criticism, comment, news reporting, teaching, scholarship, and research.
