I am a very old person, and still have sometimes nightmares of the stories that we were told when we were children, ..... when God will appear on the skies, on the Day of Judgement, sending the people on the left to hell and the people on the right to heaven. It was a horrible story and very scare that tormented me for years. I hate religion and I believe it does more bad than good to anybody. People should be prosecuted for telling those horrible stories to children, who are the least ones that committed crimes.

You sound very easily distraught, and the hells that these texts are referring to are something that sound similar to the place your consciousness is currently existing in.

Great compilation. Thank you!
Agreed; this whole series is really well done. Thank you.
He sounds like he's George Carlin's grandson who chose not to pursue comedy
This is apparently older cuz Sam looks so young. Anyway, if you have ANY sense you will listen to and believe everything he said.

I find the act of believing is the source of the problem. Why must we believe, especially with certainty? I hope it becomes more popular to admit, "I don't know". That is the most appropriate answer to almost all questions. Yet some humans have a need to believe, like it is their identity. "Why do you believe it?", normal response, "I don't know, I just feel it is true.", then, "Can you back it up with sufficient evidence such that you are willing to present the concept in front of brilliant, skeptical minds?". I suspect some things are true and some things are not true, but I am not at all mentally committed like the idea of belief. I will admit in any discussion, I don't know, but here is what I suspect and why. Folks seem to confuse beliefs with knowledge. As in, "Do you know a god is real?", response almost always, "Yes". This is a claim of knowledge with certainty, not "I suspect there might be a god, but I don't know." I don't see the falue in belief. What one believes has nothing to do with what is or isn't true. So yes, listen to Sam Harris, don't believe him. He would not believe you, nor would I, but I would listen carefully as I suspect he would. I would listen carefully, not to believe but to understand. I do not insist people think like I do about belief. I just put it out there for consideration, not to be believed. I could be a raving lunatic.

@tjones5719 why is it ironic ? It's in the book you people believe was written by a good god and good people. Why would anything so horrific be literally justified in a book meant to teach you how to be good.

@@g3tr3kdkid4 “why is it ironic ?” I said why it is ironic so no need for you to feign confusion to avoid. “It's in the book you people believe was written by a good god and good people. Why would anything so horrific be literally justified in a book meant to teach you how to be good.” Nice strawman with the “you people”. You don’t seem to be able to critically think due to your indoctrination.

Because their egos get in the way of adult conversations. Islam trains them that way.
