Can't wait and I'd like to thank you for everything you do and for me, personally, in terms of coming to realize how I didn't have any good reasons to believe God exists even though I felt alone and confused at the time but now, having watched you discuss various topics about creationism, biblical error and talk to people on why they believe, it has thoroughly convinced that there is no justification supported by evidence to believe any of the claims that the supernatural or Gods exists, irrespective of which of religion they originate from.

Thank you. Discovering your book Foundational Falsehoods of Creationism, when I was incarcerated after being heavily indoctrinated in Baptist 12-step theology by supposed doctors and addiction counselors I was court ordered to see helped me see the light of Reason. Since becoming an atheist and taking the time to become educated has completely changed my life. I believe I am developing a strong philosophy and have now been clean for 3 years. I am working, in college, and continuously trying to be a n epistemically responsible human being. You and Richard Dawkins helped start my journey and I can’t thank you enough.

The Bible says in John 3:16-36 that whoever believes in the Lord Jesus Christ shall not perish but have everlasting life, the Bible also says in Romans 10:9 that those who declare with their mouth that Jesus Christ is their God, Lord, and Savior they shall be saved. Revelation 1:8 says that Jesus is the alpha and the omega. Luke and revelation is the ending times, and Jesus is returning back. So are you going to submit your life to him or no?

@@raysalmon6566 I will regard this as a nice try because: Harriet Martineau was foremost a storywriter who also wrote articles on science for newspapers to explain the science in laymens terms. Altough this doesn't mean she's wrong for only this reason which would be "ad hominem" and therefore wrong, it is quentionable if a laymen person could understand and/or disprove the theory of evolution. But the most important point to make is: Her work which you quotemine from was published in 1851. As she pointed out " there is no positive evidence, at present", she was reflecting on the knowledge of her time around 1851 and before. I think we've made some progress in the last 170 years, don't you think? For example, the first hint about DNA was found 1869 by Friedrich Miescher, about 18 years later than Harriet Martineau has published her work. Trying to convice people to not follow the evidence of science by quotemining a non-scientist on her laymen knowledge and interpretation about knowledge from 170 years ago could be considered as dishonesty. But i don't know you, and therefore this accusation would be far feched but i would strongly recommend you to update your knowledge about this topic because it could be outdated by some decades ...

A self-referencing argument is not an argument at all, it's just someone shoving their fingers in their ears, shouting "la la la la I can't hear you" The magic reincarnation of a mythical figure (with zero evidence anywhere other the self-referencing within the same book of stories) is neither original, as it's pretty much copied from previous stories in earlier cultures, and not even consistent within the stories of the bible. Which were all written somewhat after the claimed event and not within the life time of anybody who could ever have witnessed first hand such a point in time.

I have not forgotten Genesis (creation & the flood included), I have very clear memory and understanding of that nonsense. As a child I read the Bible multiple times. I was raised in the Catholic faith. As I matured and my mental capability grew, I came to understand that the information I was seeing at 'The Natural History Museum' & 'The Science Museum' in London (which I haunted practically every weekend) was utterly at odds with the nonsense in the Bible. I was 9 years old when I reached that conclusion. The concept of 'Original Sin', is blamed on the 'fall' of Adam & Eve is fundamental to the Christian faith, particularly Catholicism, without it the sacrifice of Jesus is meaningless. Once one understands that Genesis is nonsense & the story of Adam & Eve is fantasy, the underpinning of Christianity collapses. It became clear to me that sin, was merely a construct with which to control the population & keep the religious hierarchy in power and the free money etc coming in. Without it, the Clergy would have to do real work for a living. As I grew older, I learned far more about religions heinous history in human society. It has been the cause of countless deaths and persecution of 'the different'. In addition the hypocrisy of the clergy and their followers, particularly in the Catholic faith further enhanced my antipathy to religion.

[@nickryan3417]

I was dragged up as a Roman Catholic and even wound up in a Roman Catholic secondary school. One of the events that I particularly remember was a visiting monk, who I remember as quite a nice guy, very real and open, stating that the content of Genesis was written rather recently and was required because as society developed people started to have time to think more and therefore to wonder where they came from. As a result, a creation myth was created but it should not be taken as literal because of the timings, more of an allegorical tale of caution.

Well, it is a pagan feast were all families ate their children (literally their words, not mine). Worst part, when you tell them that they are making a fool of themselves, and that to talk about evolution you should know what evolution is first, more if you are talking against, or you say to them that even when Halloween was pagan it evolved over the course of time and it has little to do, just like Christmas, and that even Christmas was originally pagan and stolen by them, when you expose their stupidity that you are hearing all the time in the streets, in KZbin, in Facebook, in Instagram, even in your house even after telling them that you don't care about their imaginary god and that you don't live in fantasy land, then they tell you that they are seriously offended by your words and that you should learn to respect others beliefs.

I’ll be honest between my own doubts in the scriptures from day one to this year were I renounced my faith completely, it’s been intellectuals like yourself that have made this possible, I suffer from chronic depression and I took to religion because I felt it would release me from my shackles so to speak, but it’s only after all this time that I realized that I only put further bondage onto myself. One of my favorite memories from that time however is sitting with my pastor and really having an intellectual discussion with her, and if there is a heaven I hope she sees it, she was kind and even willing to humor my questions, she didn’t badger me for questioning god or his machinations or call me a non-believer. In fact it was when I told her that “the Bible isn’t a holy scripture written by god, it the very least it was written by man on how to live a Godly life”. However this was before I read the Bible and it’s older versions from front to back. What makes this memory so fond to me is that she intentionally pushed me to ask further questions and come to my own conclusions rather than demanding that I adhere to scriptures. She said that “Gods gift of intelligence to man shouldn’t be squandered by shackling yourself to scriptures.” And while I may not believe in god anymore and no longer follow the faith it was ironically one of the faithful that showed me this path.
