Fantastic video. I'm so tired of encountering people who insist that atheism is the "equally faithful alternative to theism."
Quote from: "William Graham Sumner"Men educated in [the critical habit of thought] ... are slow to believe. They can hold things as possible or probable in all degrees, without certainty and without pain.
I like that quote. The video was very well done, I like it.
That was an excellent quote. I just wish that more people understood the kind of atheism he discusses! Mainly, since it's my position.
I love QualiaSoup's videos, his brother (at least I think so) TheraminTrees' are also really well done.
I don't know how well theists understand what atheism is when you say to them that they're atheists in regards to all other gods and that you just go one god further, which is another popular way of trying to clear the confusion up, I don't think they're left knowing any better.
Most theists are just fine with the concept, never had anyone not understand or grasp the concept when I talk to them face to face.
Or at least as far as I can tell.
