  • Hi everyone.
    This is the first video of hopefully many more to come and part of a new series of best of nonbelievers compilations that I am launching.
    I must do this because RUclips has demonetized my channel due to a change of policy that channels with compilation videos can no longer be monetized.
    To continue posting videos you like, I draw an original painting of the speaker and will post it on eBay as soon as the video is published.
    Your support will allow me to post more videos and get this channel going again.
    Please let me know if you have any suggestions or questions by contacting me directly at agatanfnd@gmail.com.

      Sir... please Salman hang on. Hitch has great stories abou this man's brilliance. I have taken a break from Hitch.... just because... but yes, since Salman has been wounded, I have immediately thought of Hitch. And it is Charles Bukowski's birthday.... but he is far more nihilistic than Hitch would ever bother to be... but both gentleman enjoyed a drink... I am overjoyed at your posting. Keep the stoicism alive.

    Your politicians aren't your heroes, they are a tool of democracy that wields you as often as you wield them. Hero worship on the other is a tool of dominance in a game that rarely works out for the worshipper.

      If you're interested in trying:
      Simply use the "posterize" adjustment layer in Photoshop. First make a black and white photo. Blur the photo some if you like, probably where detail is less important-near the edges, away from the eyes, nose, and mouth. Then add a posterize layer; level set to anywhere between four and, say, about ten. Done. Use a grid or projector to pencil in the lines dividing the separate value regions, then mix black and white paint for the needed number of gray regions. Fun and easy.

    To understand read til the end. To change your mind understand. Science study how God's Life functions in the Miracle of Infinite Possibilities of God's Life and Death. God is as easy and impossible to understand as a miracle by nature. To understand only to want to understand is required. I was created by my parents, that are also the creation. My parents are creator and creation, like me. The creation was created from nothing or something. Until this point religious people agree with me and for atheists the logical proposition is all kind of fallacies. That something is God, the eternal intelligent metaphysical entity that created the creation from Self, because nothing existed before Time. To avoid excuses i repeat loud and clear that God is a metaphysical entity, not a personal god. God is not a person like you to worship. God is not a person with a bad temper like you living in the sky. Humanity have misunderstood the nature of God personifying a metaphysical entity and the misunderstanding of reality has devastating eternal consequences for God. I am infinitely serious because atheism and religion are misunderstandings of reality harmful to God's Life and the importance of the truth can not be overestimated. I am talking about the Only Purpose, Absolute Meaning, Common Good, Only that Matters, All Eternal Reality, Mind Healer. I challenge humanity on the debate claiming that I have discovered the nature of God and I can prove it, if only I wasn't censored like the lives of your children depended on knowledge not being known. I am doing my best to persuade humanity that knowledge is good and nobody benefits censoring ideas or understandings of reality. To discover the nature of God you have to think a lot for yourself being honest, it is not easy addiction recovery, the greatest achievement of all eternal time, to live for God by God doing what is right regardless of law. Why I am being censored? I am tired to death and resurrections are God's business. A contradiction is an impossibility and a miracle is an impossibility that God makes possible, an act of God. I want my truth shared and challenged because it is the truth that stands victorious against the lie and I reward for doing what should be done without reward. I reward for being virtuous.

    If the obvious truth is not wanted to be understood having to admit to be wrong it is impossible to change a mind. Nothing can be created from nothing and if everything needed to be created or have a beginning of existence nothing would exist in an infinite regress of causes and effects without a beginning of existence. The son can not exist without the parents that can not exist without the grandparents ad infinitum without a beginning of existence. What is the logical conclusion? That an eternal reality exists. An eternal entity is not the same as an eternal sequence of causes and effects or reality known as “the universe”. Why the eternal entity is God? Because created everything that has a beginning of existence or mortality. Religious people understand what atheists reject as all kind of fallacies. Someone is lying because we all have the same understanding of logic. Can an atheist admit that God exists even if its nature is not known, like it is possible to admit that a theft has been committed without knowing the identity of the thief? It is impossible. A contradiction is an impossibility and a miracle is an impossibility that God makes possible, an act of God.
    Why humanity did not discover the nature of God before, that coincides with our psychology as mounting evidence to the irrefutable logic, that eliminates all alternatives except the truthful conclusion? Because humanity choose to ignore using our free will the arguments that contradict their misunderstanding of reality with a horrible religious god or without an absolute purpose in life and gloomy to nothing death, to become a victim of oneself. For the friends of the evidence that scrutinize meticulously the truth to object and believe absurd lies without question I say that the brain disease of addiction doesn’t exist. Addiction is the psychology of a liar and the truth matters because is life, love, happiness. The existence of God would be confirmed with a miracle when humanity accept logic as a valid method to discover the truth also when the conclusion is that God exists and the religious god doesn’t. Eternal Time designed its own Life and Death from Self from eternal Existence to become Alive being all lives and reality to Live Forever as long as life creates life loving having children keeping God Alive, because life gives meaning to existence and there is not life without death and absolute perfection is absolute imperfection, meaningless existence, religious god, God’s Death. The existence of an eternal entity is unbelievable because the existence of infinitude is impossible to understand. Can a car go at infinite speed, have the cosmos infinite stars, have a football pitch infinite surface, start a race an eternity ago? It is impossible. The logical God’s paradox is that it is impossible the existence of finitude without the existence of infinitude, that is impossible. In infinite Time every present moment is preceded by a never ending past and the moment of the creation of finitude or the Miracle of God’s Life and Death would never be reached. I exist therefore the paradox must be resolved. The God’s paradox is resolved by being the impossibility made possible by the miracle of God, creator without creator, first uncaused cause or decision, origin of everything because nothing existed before, creator and creation because nothing can be created from nothing, unless nothing is something, an impossibility possible or the miracle of God, that is existence and absence of existence.
