You have really become an insanely polished public speaker.

That delivery of that presentation should be called a Wood-thwack

Can't help think of Nuggan's growing list abominations. While dead or dying, gods do exist on Discworld. As proven by the occasional godly stone thown though a window.😅

"The history of Earth is the history of indiscriminate abject suffering." What he has now to say is a long / wonder the world can bear & be. / Once in a sycamore I was glad / all at the top, and I sang. / Hard on the land wears the strong sea / and empty grows every bed.

I hope they all stay until the end...

Oh wait they're supposed to leave right before the end. I forgot.

All gods and their names are orginated from human's imagination. They're whithout any reality. That doesn't mean god doesn't exist. But god is beyond thought and science. The gods of all organized religions are man made. You have to give back the man made god to society from which he came. To find the real god. The believer and the non- believer are both the same. Both suffer and live their life in vanity. Vanity, vanity, all vanity.

Great to see a viking warrior arguing for atheism

If God wants everyone to read his book why are some people born blind and deaf, or why do some babies die of cancer before learning to read it? That's all the evidence I need to know someone like that couldn't exist to be honest, but I have a whole lot more. But I'm not gonna waste your time by making you read all my other reasons, because I have better things to do with my life to be honest.

Religion is the embodiment of humans' longing for a just existence when no such thing exists.

Finally, priests getting a buff. They lost their bonus vs low level targets, the panic button that is Parish Shift, fewer and fewer targets are susceptible to Exorcise.

9:03 "once the pious are dragged kicking and screaming into modernity, they have the audacity to claim that our moral progress is theirs..." SPOT ON! The very fact there is "moral progress" proves that the supposedly absolute objective "perfect" moral standard in their bible is nothing of the sort. If it was, moral progress would be impossible. The facts, of course, are otherwise...moral progress is real, it is necessary, and is completely the product of human effort, no god involved.

This is one of the most incredibly written speeches I have ever heard. As an atheist 20(f) from the age of 6 I finally felt found by your content when I discovered it a few months ago. Your speech and its contents moves me deeply. I feel heard and seen and understood. Your articulation with word and thought is always so thoughtful, considerate, and never condescending. Stephen you are the embodiment of a desire to always learn, and to ask the questions that are never questioned. Thank you for your dedicated work, thank you for your desire to make positive change and to always keep learning. This moved me, truly.

Steven correctly referred to there being 200bn galaxies in the observable universe, but I would point out that is an absolute minimum estimate. It is now believed that the figure is nearer to 2 trillion!

ROFLMAO, the picture with your face posted on each viking has me cracking up laughing I had to stop the video to make this comment and stop laughing so much to pay better attention to what is being said LOL

[johnnycastellanetta]

Catching your video 20 minutes after being posted and watching the views go up in real time as I watch it gives me hope that at some point we can ditch the mythology and strive towards science and philosophy becoming the main thought patterns of humanity.

[mauricelaidler]

Nailed it, Stephen. Thank you! Extremely well presented.

[nataliaprzeszowska]

This is one outstanding, excellent and compelling speech. You’ve outdone yourself, Stephen.
Brilliantly put together, beautifully presented.

[rexyoung]

Excellent!! I’ve never heard you string together such a complete and compelling argument before! Usually you’re reacting to theists or politicians and their specific rhetoric…. I LOVE that content but you blew me away with this multifaceted and persuasive argument!

Im sorry, but I saw the title pop up and immediately thought of Ulon Caluthid and "Some more of god's greatest mistakes"...
