“Since Jesus did miracles then” – according to the Bible – “and since Jesus still does miracles today” – according to Christian believers – “isn’t Sam ignorant?”
No. There were no “miracles” then, and there are no “miracles” now. There are just many people who believe in all kinds of supernatural nonsense and magic.
Why Sam made invalid comments about the scriptures?Since Jesus did miracles then,and since Jesus still does miracles today,so isn’t Sam ignorant?
@l337pwnage Initially I didn’t notice it either, but there are some boxing gloves on the poles too. You can see them during the first 15 seconds. Your idea about helmets wasn’t even all that strange, because half of the speakers were amateurs.
@Prophiscient Ahh, that actually is kind of a cool idea. That did not occur to me, thank you.
@l337pwnage Apparently it’s a boxing ring.
A bit off topic, but whats the deal with the stupid safety ropes? Why not have the speakers wear helmets too, they might trip and fall. :/
That was awesome.
Awesome! This first time I really liked Sam Harris, Epic presentation!
He lays waste to religion not ten seconds into this clip with a statement that all sane religious persons know is true.
When the lighting hits him a certain direction he looks similar to Will Arnett.
Ladies and gentlemen, welcome Sam Harris, making the oh-so-sure believers not-so-sure.
well…… christianity just died.. let’s bury it and never look back.
@Forserean Sure it is. It’s when you’re able to extrapolate a position or point in space based on surrounding data.
invisible friend… he aint there

It takes a lot more faith to believe unfounded writings by Bronze Age shepherds being translated throughout the centuries than it does to put your stock into tested evidence. Atheists are not angry at god, because god does not exist. We get angry at his fan club who clings to disproven notions about the bible. Really, we aren’t even mad at you just for believing in god, we are mad at you for pretending that your delusion makes you special enough to control other people’s lives.
Is that a left over stage from the old star search set? Bizarre multi-colored seat audience seat covers as well.
great speech as always Sam.
I came. Twice.

@Prophiscient He’s just trying to get a rise out of you. Ignore him, he wants attention. It’s unlikely he believes anything he’s saying.
@MAdk1p It’s not faith you have, it’s delusion. Atheists don’t hate what’s not there; but we’re greatly annoyed at fanboys like you.
@MAdk1p so im not a real american because i dont believe in god? and i put my life at risk in iraq and im not a real american? shut up stupid.
@MAdk1p Glad I’m not American. I’d have to deal with people like you.
@Prophiscient
“I just block people like you.”
Continue to do so.
Words cannot describe the level of stupidity you were able to cram in one paragraph.
@MAdk1p
You are scared. Terrified. “Real Americans”, give me a break. Atheists are no less “American” than those with imaginary friends. You must understand that your claims are the baseless ones. There is ZERO scientific evidence of any type of god, and saying anything but that just shows how ignorant you really are. Believe in God all you want, but do not disgrace science.
