This is an awesome video on YouTube. One way or another I know this is the fate of all gods, but in the main time we can have fun and play with the idea. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=1pmZupCM8q8&feature=player_embedded

Hope that I'm posting this right. You guys make it look so easy.

Wow, definitely not exactly what I thought it was going to be. Provocatively titled, but well argued and well made. It should make more than a few people stop and think, and that's a commendable thing to do. I give it full marks. Thanks for sharing!

Nice.

Excellent! Excellent indeed but I find it ironic that we must kill what doesn't exist. I find it even more ironic that another will pop up in it's place despite the failures of it's predecessors.

Very Logical and great find TMD, cudos to you and to the producers. A very natural conclusion, given history's record. One more nail in that coffin where all past Gods ended up and all present God's are destined. People who need have to have their religious security blanket because they are unable to see the facts, lack evidence and see their delusions for what they are, will no doubt reject the premises presented. Others on fence or seeking understanding can benefit. I know I will pass it on. Thanks.

I got a nice laugh with the finally. Rather than wasting time talking with a God zealot, when they say I don't have evidence I have faith, I usually say " OK you go Yahweh, I'll go Mahweh!" SS

There are only two types of religious people, the deceivers and the deceived. SS

Great capture, Mad Deviant! Sometimes I feel like I'd just like to have a full time employee monitoring YouTube so I could catch the best that was going on. SFN does pretty good, though.

I particularly like the emphasis on using the word "mythology" when referencing Christianity, Islam, God, etc. It is precise, accurate, and encapsules massive skepticism toward the intended concept in a single word.

Thanks for the contribution, MD!
