Why do we do what we do here at DWR? What can we offer to the stalwartly religious that happen on this atheistic nook of cyberspace? Not very much, some would opine, because people’s minds are made up and that is that.
Searching through my video subscriptions I found this video by Thermin Trees and with his usual candour, and oh so lovely English accent, he explains why it is important to continue the discussion about contentious issues. It is the process that is most important and not necessarily the results.
Listen as TT articulates why it is important to do what we do here at DWR (and in the rest of life too!).
The lengths we go through to gain the illusion of control… Enjoy this thoughtful exploration of death and atheism.
What happens when we realize that religion is just a cultural vehicle to salve our irrational fear of death? Theramin Trees produces another outstanding video that engages the intellect with explanations of why we act the way we do when faced with the facts of our mortality. Seventeen minutes long, but you won’t notice them passing.
The home run of the series. Theramin Trees examines and shows why belief in god(s) is unreasonable, and how rationally, he has become an atheist. Enjoy!
**update** Sorry for the duplicate link, now fixed with part three of the TT series.
Part two of the series examines conceptions of the divine that, when looked at logically do not make sense and can then reasonably be ruled out.
Theramin Trees a youtube author made a series of videos in response to the following questions.
This three-part series looks at:
1. What I believed when I was a theist
2. Concepts for gods I affirmatively believe do not exist
3. Concepts for god I believe to be unknowable
The first video, a trek into the author’s beliefs is fascinating as it is a tour of how his conception of the christian god evolved over time and where TT came to the conclusion that there was no God and that was the most reasonable hypothesis to hold given the current information.
Stay tuned for part 2 tomorrow. :)
