Bertrand Russell on God (1959)

- Опубликовано: 10 авг 2011
- The fantastic Bertrand Russell talks about his thoughts and beliefs on god or lack there of. Regardless of your own personal beliefs you have to admire the way in which he stands by his own beliefs when under scrutiny.
Bertrand Russell was the embodiment of an immense intelligence. He was a sincere human being who seemed to be most honest with himself. As a fellow atheist, I resonate with his intellect and ideas. His honesty enabled him to challenge Mathematics in the most provocative way by introducing his famous paradox. As atheists, we do not necessarily dismiss those who endorse religious values and beliefs. We merely ask if whether you truly and honestly accept those tenets and ideologies to be true!
That's of course a very inconvenient question when you're trying to convince yourself of some religious belief.
‘’Scientific societies are as yet in their infancy… It is to be expected that advances in physiology and psychology will give governments much more control over individual mentality than they now have even in totalitarian countries. Fitche laid it down that education should aim at destroying free will, so that, after pupils have left school, they shall be incapable, throughout the rest of their lives, of thinking or acting otherwise than as their schoolmasters would have wished. Diet, injections(vaccines) and injunctions will combine, from very early age, to produce the sort of character and the sort of beliefs that the authorities consider desirable, and any serious criticism of the powers that be will become psychologically impossible...’’ - Bertrand Russell, 1953

He's a satanist which is why he doesn't want you to believe in God or Spirits.
@@vaxrvaxr ??? I know most religious beliefs are in fact true. Pieces of the larger picture. Im not a cuck.
@@dianemorrell9638 Just imagine for a moment that everything you've ever been taught is a lie.
Vaccines are Safe and Effective, Flouride Microplastics are good, Monsanto Bayer Pesticides are good
5g is good
Climate Change is Real and you need to give us totalitarian control because of it.
War Is Peace
The Truth is A lie
Ignorance is Strength
Wake up
You don't believe in science. Thats the dumbest thing anyones ever said.
You do the science you follow the facts wherever they go.
Anyone that says X can't be true aren't scientists they are brainwashed normies.
Read My Quote From Betrand Russell.
You wouldn't know reason and Facts if it hit you in the face.
1984 is the Elites plan for the World As is brave New World Orwell and Huxley were killed for releasing it to the public.
Its like animal farm things we knew to be true have been trained out of us over the generations.
I'd read Bill Coopers Behold a Pale Horse.
He predicted the 9/11 attacks and that the Government would blame Bin Laden and use it to start wars and sieze our rights.
He was killed for that.
overrated.
Great guy. First learned about him when I was 16 and he had just died at age 97. I felt like I knew him. He made me feel smart. In time, I became smart. And it has stuck with me ever since.
One of the greatest minds of the last 100 years. I love his philosophical writings and thoughts.
he was a technocrat commie mistaken for a philosopher. Mathematicians speaking about morality always ends up in dull unfounded cringe
@@stelioeffrena6909 Yep, agree.
Stella, how painfully ignorant. Russell condemned Marxism and communism.
One of the greatest turds of the last 100 years. English accents don't indicate intelligence contrary to popular belief.
@@Rumplesti1tskin right when it stopped being so popular. Same thing with pacifism. He constantly changed his views to ones that benefiet himself through his whole life.
Deathbed conversions are the opposite of logic. Scared people, who are in pain, will do almost anything to alleviate it, take any medicine or drug. Bringing up deathbed conversions seems more like an argument for atheism to me.
So alleviating pain is bad, good to know
@@keklulu332 My point is that we are not thinking rationally when we are in pain. Some people will turn to alcohol or illegal drugs and make their lives even worse, I don't blame them but we are not thinking straight in those moments.
The same is true for beliefs that might not be rational. If you only start believing in God because you are dying it's not a belief you arrived at rationally. Who knows, maybe the same thing will even happen to me but I wouldn't see that as an argument that God actually exists.
I can't get enough of this guy face after answering each question, I'd pay a lot of money to know what was going on in his head during the intervals lol
Are you still alive bro🤔🤔
I suppose there is ride of valkyries being played in his head
A true hero. I read his essays -including "Why I am not a Christian*- when I was 13 and felt the need to question my "liberal Muslim" upbringing and first I decided to become an agnostic, then, at 15, I categorized myself an atheist citizen of the world. I prefer to call myself a naturalist and the supernaturalists 'a-naturalists".
Alexandria School of Science Thank you. Would you be interested in the Earth Civilization Project I initiated 3 years ago ? :)
Yes I prefer the term naturalist over atheist as well. But ironically I like atheism because it's most known, despite many believers having misconceptions about it.
Bertrand Russell was an agnostic, not an atheist. I should add, also, Lord Sathanus, that whereof you cannot speak, you should remain silent.
congrats i left islam at 21, then again its harder when you live in an islamic shithole
@@TheTariqibnziyad Which country do you live in?
A true philosopher we loss many years ago. Always will be remembered as one of the most influential and greatest.
The simple answer is to always be a freethinker and be open to all possibilities. Now thats pure freedom.
Beautifully said.
Everyone in the whole world no matter what religion you think is the truth should be forced to hear this man speak maybe we would have less problems in the world and more sanity more love and less divisions❤
Pls stop believing in fairy tales and make the most of life right now
thanks for posting
Such an irony that so many simple minded representatives of our specie come to mock one of the most brilliant minds in history. It is like throwing pearls to the pigs. What would pigs know of the real value of this mans thoughs.
i couldn't agree more

The word is "species." There is no such word as "specie."
@@alexandriabaroque937 Come on man he typoed it it's no deal
Thinking people terrify them. When they start thinking, they abandon ship that's what they fear. How many Atheists come from organized religion? I'd say many by own interactions with people.
Take a good look and listen, that is what a true Hero looks like. No fear .

Russell é o meu maior herói na filosofia e ele tem razão em dizer que não há uma razão prática para acreditar no que é falso. Por outro lado, não é possível provar que "não existe uma vida transcendente", seja no sentido cristão, platônico, espírita, panteísta, ou seja lá qual for. Eu não acredito em "after life", entretanto, não posso provar a veracidade ou falsidade de "existe vida após a morte". Nesse ponto, o Russell se contradiz na sua "busca pela verdade". Ora, na ausência de provas, suspende-se o juízo! Eis o cerne do agnosticismo! Não é mais uma questão de "acredito/desacredito". É óbvio que a religião se apoia nessa impossibilidade de prova, assim como o "mau gosto musical" se apoia no "gosto não se discute". Enfim, gosto demais do B.R., principalmente do seu "Análise da Matéria".
brilliant man with valuable lessons to teach all of us.

@BertrandRussell2 you need help. Look into your hateful soul ..this gentleman is all that is good. You resent him because he calls out your fallacious beliefs. Reflect & repent. Seek the truth not ancient myths.
This is one of the most concise arguments against christianity I have ever heard.
Ben No kidding....
Nonsense. It doesn't touch Christianity on a single point. The idea the followers of the Lord think it is merely expedient is nonsense. No, the Lord incarnated and confirmed selfishness as the supreme evil when He united man to the God on the cross. Expedience or mere feeling has nothing to do with it.
@@ishmaelforester9825 selfishness is actually the cause for morality. Without selfishness, there would be absolutely no point in having a morality whatsoever.

It seems to me the concept that an all knowing and all powerful god cares so much about what people do between the sheets is an utter nonsense and only deserving of ridicule.
Brilliant comment about a wonderful human being...
Please post more of this interview or say where we can see it? Footage and audio of Bertrand is so limited but usefull*
There is an immense intelligence and curiousity behind those eyes.

I watch this video and all I can think about is Ecclesiastes when Solomon writes about the meaningless of life apart from God, "I said to myself, 'Look, I have increased in wisdom more than anyone who has ruled over Jerusalem before me; I have experienced much of wisdom and knowledge.' Then I applied myself to the understanding of wisdom, and also of madness and folly, but I learned that this, too, is a chasing after the wind.
For with much wisdom comes much sorrow;
the more knowledge, the more grief."
What's the point of devoting your whole life to growing your intellect as much as possible? Apart from the fact that you will never know everything because 1. the human mind is limited and 2. there will never be enough resources or evidence to learn everything, in the end, you're gonna die and leave everything you've worked for behind you. It's just sad. I guess if I had that rigid mindset I would try to make the best of the time I had. I just don't get it. What's the point? He says he sees no evidence for God. How? If there was a God, look where you could see His fingerprints. The trees, the ocean, the order and cycle of the earth, the sun, the moon, the stars, the universe, our minds, our consciousness, morality, justice, virtue, love. There's so much more to life than "the facts". God made our minds for more than that. That idea of strictly living by what you know to be true because it has been tested and experimented and studied just seems sad and flawed to me. Your life will always be limited. Not because what you know to be true is holding you back from what you want to believe, but because you refuse to believe anything which hasn't been tested and validated by science. "I think, therefore I am." Okay. What's the point of being if all you do is think? I don't know, I'm just spitballin' here
You are limited in your intellect. You talk about - leaving everything behind - behind as if you are sure of a destination. Why do you eat delicious stuff, have sex or pleasurable past times when you will leave everything behind. By the way, king Solomon did not know math or science and most probably thought God lived in the clouds - hos famed wisdom was ordinary, at best.

Brilliant man.
He seems to have thought himself very smart indeed!
as winner of nobel, he likely was quite ' full of himself. '
BR : british rot
This is the man who lived before us, having the views utterly against the existing dogma of religion and seems to be satisfied, which shows intelligence is not about having knowledge by reading the books replete with views, science, philosophy as the truth matters and nothing can stand against it; that said, what, I guess, he could not fathom is something that our intellect is unable to comprehend, and there are many examples in which it has been demonstrated; for example, our inner voice is the proof that evidence cannot physically prove it, but we know that it does exist. The dream is another miracle. Though science explains mechanics but not, why question...
I'm sure that Paul Whitehouse could do a marvellous Bertrand Russell
So smart.
It would be interesting to know what was his last thought before death. Maybe he changed his mind?
Marvellous.
If something is not visible does not mean it is not true,
It is one of the basic fallacies, you can never observe an electron or even an atom ,does not mean they do not exist! And even then philosophically , arguments have evolved and one of the finest arguments are in brief as :
Contingency argument: Every dependent thing has resource.
this resource dependency will inevitably come to an end where there has to be a independent resource , on which every other dependent resource depends on.
Fine tuning argument : it describes the probability of the creation of this creation with all odds against it having more probability as close to 99.1 percent but still we came to existence.
Non-dual infinity argument etc!
Russel does not argue as you suggest. To go beyond the perceptual, man had to use concepts. These concepts must be formed using evidence of the senses and logic. You can know about the existence of the invisible such as electron through observing their effects at the visible scale and then using induction and logic to generalize. Russel, as a teenager, found the evidence for God and Christian dogma to be without evidence or without proper logical transformation. Better than Russel, I recommend Ayn Rand's theory of concept formation for a fuller explanation of how we come to understand the world.
It was none other than the french sociologist thinker, Emile Durkheim who has explained about the very mechanism of the societal phenomenon called religion better than so many others before or after him... 🌐
That's what sceptical enquiry will turn you into.
So he does not believe in a Sovereign Creator. But he believes in absolutes of Truth? Where did this absolute truth come from? Who defines it?
watching in 2019, I read his book about dogmatic statements, its very important what he tells about it, it mainly focused on religion, if people are radical religious please read the dogmatic statement what Russel says.

Very likely the greatest mind that "lived" during my lifetime; only close competitor would be Albert Einstein. Never untrue to himself or his beliefs. Rest in peace, sir.

Funnily enough, Mr. Russell’s reasons for not being a Christian are the reasons to which I myself am a Christian
Makes zero sense.
I believe he was agnostic, like most logicians. Talking about the afterlife requires too much linguistics for an answer that should ease one’s mind, but I believe the answer is optimistic.
We really need subtitles or captions on this. he makes great points you cant even hear
Time for hearing aids.
I hope to see Bertrand Russell at 'Blips and Chitz' after I die.
Shake his hand or whatever the equivalent is in terms of the beings that are playing this simulation.
since what may be known about god is plain to them because god has made it plain to them for since the creation of the world gods invisable qualities his eternal power and divine nature have been clearly seen being understood from what has been made, so that men are without excuse, romans 1 v 19
You shouldnt believe something if it isnt true. But by what basis does one come to truth? Why is there even a concept of truth if God doesnt exist to set the standard. We would only have personal opinion, like Bertrand Russell's, just one more belief among many. Therefore, in order for there to be truth and facts a personal God must exist.
The guy is incredibly, almost unbelievably shallow for being known as a "philosopher." I've never heard a real philosopher make such quaint and poorly thought-out assertions. He sounds like a 5-year old who's mad at his parents because he didn't get the bike for Christmas.
He’s a logician; every conclusion follow a strict structure composed of evidence or proofs supporting it beyond any reasonable doubt. We know how oxygen was created. Is it an opinion that you need to breathe oxygen?
Tremendous courage to express his opinion
Soul? LOL!
Any theory you have about a 'soul' or a 'feeling' is useless unless it can consistently predict the real world. This is not to say they are meaningless, but merely that they are not precise, just poetic. Surely Russell would know the loose way it is used in the language.

@@bliots8369 presence of who, dog? Does the world offend you?
@@7146533 I didn’t mean to sound offended or anything and I apologize if I was too harsh in what I said, but coming from where I am as a Christian who knows and loves God and who tries to live by his word, it seems silly to think that anything that comes from the mind of a human can be more inspiring or powerful than something that comes from the mind of God. And I know a lot of people don’t believe that the Bible came from the mind of God or even that there is a God in the first place, and I get it. No matter how hard you look, you can’t physically see God in the same way you can see the world. But there’s a reason so many people believe in him and love him. The Bible says we see God’s glory by the work of his hands. I just wish more people would look for God with an open heart and mind. I’ll read that essay with an open mind, and I hope you’ll do the same with the Bible.
@@bliots8369The bible didn’t come from the mind of god. At least not directly whether or not you believe in a god. They came from the minds of the people, claiming their experiences. The Bible is largely a recollection of stories pertaining to god or events surrounding a god, but it comes from the mind of mortals (I’m assuming). I find it ironic that you would hold it at higher value strictly on such a poor premise. For who is to say god did not inspire Russell to write his essays, god works in mysterious ways. There are likely logically rigorous arguments for gods existence, if you wish to be more compelling seek them out and also seek out what the compelling arguments against god are; then you will be able to be much more convincing.

In "A History of Western Philosophy" Russell states: "I do not myself believe that philosophy can either prove or disprove the truth of religious dogmas." Yet here he is categorically certain that there is no God or afterlife. This seems to be a contradiction, no?
Any question or predicate involving god is not provable as it contains no observable referent, so questions of God are resigned to speculative metaphysics, something that philosophy (in Russells view) has no interest in. This is because it is not a question of logic.
The idea of something creating the universe is not provable/disprovable precisely because it is not a matter of logic. If one is led by logic, he is led to believe god does not exist. However, that is not "proof" in the strictest sense.
I cannot speak for Russell, but i do not view this as a contradiction.
In attempt to make this more clear, to say im sure that there is no afterlife is to say 'my views are guided by reason, and there is no reason to believe in the afterlife' (reasons being rational or observable evidence)
To say that we can disprove or prove the existence of the afterlife is to say 'i can show you through some anlysis of concepts, or observable phenomena, thay the afterlife certainly exists/doesnt exist'
The first is rational, the second is impossible.
No, it's not an contradiction. If something cannot be proven or disproven it doesn't mean there is any reason tobelieve that it's true.
For example:
If someone tells you that there is a leprechaun with unicorn dancing salsa together in a different galaxy, it cannot be proven or disproven, but it doesn't mean that you should think it is true. Do you understand?:)
3:22 Bertrand- you would agree that much that makes life LIFE is not material but transcendent and spiritual. Love, consciousness, come to mind. So if we as humans know this, why is it falsehood to ascribe the source of these gifts as a GREATER SPIRIT rather than arising from material beginnings ?? Which one is more logical??? For being so intelligent he doesn’t seems to have grasped simple obvious facts about human existence.
Belief in magic/religion is no more than a warm blanket
love him, "god" is pure logic, nothing else, undestroyable, omnipresent. however, reincarnation is absolutely true, the behavior of each individual has an impact on their reincarnation, this is also part of the healthy teaching of Jesus, demonstrably, this is where I differ from Mr. Russell, otherwise the man is completely correct.
I spent most of my life being an atheist and pondering the same questions until on argument without a doubt shook that and have not seen it refuted.
Intelligent design and impossible sophistication and and balance of precision MUST be at the hands of a creator.
Chaos does not lend itself to to this in any way
However you want to refer to God is up to you, but the fact everything had a creator is simply obvious to me.
Ponder again. "Intelligent design" must be at the hands of a creator, but you're presupposing that it is intelligent or designed. What you refer to as "impossible sophistication and balance" is obviously possible, otherwise it wouldn't exist. There is no reason it /has/ to be this way, it might as well just /happen/ to be this way. "The fact is obvious to me" translates to "I have a feeling".
To what degree is impossible? A sports team being down a bunch of points might lend the words " it's impossible for them to win now" we know it's not impossible but understand that it would be a very difficult feet so we deem it impossible,yet it's absolutely possible. Just because you don't see how it could be any other way than an intelligent creator doesn't mean it can't happen.
@@Poximab13 "Just because you don't see how it could be any other way than an intelligent creator doesn't mean it can't happen." Doesn't mean it did either. You just ignorantly argued for the great unlikelihood that it did though.
Quite the opposite, further reading and experience gives you atheism.
Seek God!
If arguably the greatest logical mind in human history can not logically justify believing in God then it is pretty safe to say god is absolute nonsense.
From the mouth of the master of false assumptions, it sounds almost like an heresy.

He was a believer, he was believing in what he was saying and that's what a believer is, Russell lived for more than 90 years and was a top philosopher of 20th century and saying am not believer!, Get out of here.

Simple common sense
Is "It doesn't happen very often" on deathbed conversions the best argument that the great philosopher and thinker of 21st century can come up with?
I'd say it's spot on. I remember when Christopher Hitchens was diagnoised with terminal cancer & I even predicted that as soon as he was in his grave people would start making up stories about him turning to Christ in his final hours & guess what? As soon as he was dead the internet was awash with exactly such claims just as I had predicted they would be. Someone even cashed in on the claim & wrote a book stating that he had because *they knew there was plenty of £$£$ to be made once he was 6 foot under* & unable to call them out. So much for 'Thou shalt not bear false witness' eh? I guess it's just fine & dandy to do so if you want to pretend that atheists are all Christians after all. How did I know that would happen? The same was claimed as soon as Darwin died. Funny how these conversions never happen a little earlier when the atheists in question can be heard saying they've found Jesus for themselves isn't it eh?
@@paulbrocklehurst7253 As a Christian Catholic I still agree with you on a fact that there are many made-up deathbed conversions which is not fine (telling a lie is not ok) . But you never know. I'm just saying that "Deathbed conversions do not happen very often" is not an argument based on facts that men like this seem to be after all the time.
what other argument is needed? christians like to act high and mighty when they convert people and it doesn't happen. simple as that
@@theguardian6464 seeing as the christian faith lacks a multitude of factual foundation I don't think you're particularly entitled to critique him on that
Why don't you elaborate on what the Bible doesn't have for factual foundation because if you read the the Bible it covers everything from how the earth was created to how we should take care of ourselves, others, how we feel, what to avoid. I tried to prove the Bible wrong and ended up seeing how right it truly was maybe instead of saying its not factual try reading and proving what in the Bible is wrong
LOL, how times have changed. Atheism is now intellectually dying and mostly dead, and Christianity is back in force. It has not made it back into the churches yet, but in the bedrock of the academy it is back. Christian apologetics is surging within many Christian communities and I’m personally feeling really good about the intellectual future of Christianity. #AnthonyFlew
Science says seeing is believing. But GOD says believing is seeing! He will NOT place HIMSELF under man's microscope. I expect Russell is no longer an atheist...".the fool has said in his heart there is no God"....Bible
Of Course He knows God is real but he was a High Ranking Satanist pushing the 1984 agenda of the UN and the New World Order. Listen to Alex Jones!
All our science is just Lies by Evil people and Eugenecists its Dogma
Isn’t this what most intelligent people think when they are about 13, until further reading and experience of life makes them understand religious teachings better.

We die and turn to dust.
Correct, Genesis 3:19
"By the sweat of your brow
you will eat your food
until you return to the ground,
since from it you were taken;
for dust you are
and to dust you will return"
@@MichaelTheCorpse What I meant by turning into dust is that it is the end of you and there is no heaven, hell, devil, angels and there is no god or gods. You become dust and you are no longer. You don't have to cite the bible. Even prehistoric mammals knew that.
@@user-ky5dy5hl4d I know that's what you meant, but as a religious man, I was pointing out that we too believe that after we die we eventually turn into dust.

Sad, seems so wise and yet does not believe in the creator.
Why would he?
He seems wise? In what way? He sounded like a 5 year old rehearsing a frequently concocted tantrum to me.
well, I still believe my beliefs
and they are still wrong
On his death bed he sought repentance. Hopefully that was enough for him to enter

The dogma is not good, the moral lessons are good. When life gets really tough it can offer some solace. I like the expression; "there are no atheist's in foxholes".
