As scientific advances are made the atheist population is rapidly increasing. All I ask of anyone, whether they be agnostic, atheist, religious, etc. is seek answers. You should never blindly believe in something. The world would be a better place if people made up their own minds instead of basing their lives on faith.
Now, lets see what the pissed-offs have to say:
Will you people take "YOUR" theological BS somewhere else than on Carrie's video performance! Do this on your own blog website not on here cause we do not want to hear what you "think" is right or wrong according to "your" standards. If you must comment, do so on how great this woman is at singing this song and how it moved you. Otherwise do your bashing on your own website.
My most-liked comment of the day, which (I think) makes the most sense:-
yarinelly says: What makes you think that your religion is better than any other?? People say that Christians won't go to heaven and blah blah blah... It doesn't matter what religion you are from. We are all here to worship God! Everyone have different beliefs, so I hope that you can respect others.
My house tutor told me about Sai Baba today. She wasn't really an extreme believer of religion i guess, and she talked to me about how ridiculous certain people can be when it comes to the issue of faith. Coincidentally, I chanced upon a video on youtube and it was about Carrie Underwood singing a song worshipping Jesus. Here comes the funny part. I was browsing through the comments while I waited for the video to load (which, apparently, took AGES), and the atheists and free-thinkers were arguing with the Christians about faiths and religions!
Here's a glance of what they have to say:
clamb1915 to MrFrank440: Your comment reeks of religious arrogance. Essentially you're saying that religious people are happier, less ugly, and miserable. lol. How about this: The divorce rate of Christians in America is 27%. The divorce rate of atheists is about 20%. Roughly 85% of the prison population in America is christian. Less than 5% if agnostic and only .02% is atheist. For a group of happy people, you guys commit a lot of crime and have more broken families. Does that sound happy to you?
toriandannachannel replies to clamb1915: It is not the belief of God that breaks up families and puts people in jail. That is within their own mind, and families that have been broken sometimes it's for the good, and sometimes they get back together, sometimes it just wasn't meant to be. People in Jail have chosen there own path within that, that have NOTHING to do with being a Christian, and many people who get out of Jail start going to church more and become better Christians.
1. clamb1915 to yarber63: Faith is a dangerous thing. Richard Dawkins stated that "One of the things that is wrong with religion is that it teaches us to be satisfied with answers which are not really answers at all." Faith, is not a reason to believe in something. As a child I had faith that santa clause was real. I'm sure you did as well. Did that make it so? As to your point about hate, yes I hate religion. It has caused more problems then I can begin to count and it's the last thing holding us back.
