A quick reminder of what some words mean. Starting with antitheism which seems to confuse people:
1) antitheism: the view that it is good that there is no evidence for the existence of god(s) since for one or more reasons god(s) are bad
2) atheism: the view that the evidence for the existence of god(s) is insufficient to warrant a belief in them
3) gnosticism: the view that something is unshakably true without any doubt
4) agnosticism: the view that something is not or cannot be known
5) theism: the belief that there is a god (on the balance of evidence or simply faith)
Examples:
1) an agnostic atheist is a person who thinks gods don't exist in the same way as fairies don't exist but philosophically have to allow for the possibility of both
2) a agnostic antitheist is exactly the same as above and thinks its a good idea that this is the case
3 a gnostic theist knows that there is a god and is unshakable in this assertion
The History of every major Galactic Civilization tends to pass through three distinct and recognizable phases, those of Survival, Inquiry and Sophistication, otherwise known as the How, Why and Where phases. For instance, the first phase is characterized by the question How can we eat? the second by the question Why do we eat? and the third by the question Where shall we have lunch?

The replacement of rituals' depiction I find is spot on.
Splendid video!
What's the name of the background music?
people need to understand that its not atheism or religion thats the problem its arrogance (from a christian perspective; pride) in people thinking 'my way of doing things is better than your way.' and its the same for anything
ॐ unity of all
What does it mean???
I wish the videos were subtitiled and the scripts were available too.

I was going to thumbs up that comment but noticed it already had 42 thumbs up.
A-yep, I'm one of those funny guys who put "Jedi" on the religion census form! :P
Sounds more like polytheism in ancient Greece. A more human-centered religion where gods represent natural phenomena.
Religion are the denial of human as a part of the real solution, so religions are sad.
it means "let's keep this a secret"
a secular religion never really took off ? what about scientology
Church of the Holy Egg FTW!
lol at Jedi on census form

Indeed, the blind belief of dictionary atheism is just as nonsensical as religion.
However, most so-called 'atheists' are probably better classified as freethinkers.
en.wikipedia (dot) org/wiki/Freethought
(The main difference is that atheism is faith in there being no deity, and freethought is based on logic/reason. However, Atheism seems to have become a common term with nonbeliever.)
what is atheism if not a parody of religion,lacking all sense?
Secular religion, sounds like an oxymoron...
