MODERATOR, please check the link. This is a video on how Zoltan Istvan wants to combine atheism and transhumanism, and spread the ideas of how it can happen. The channel is also called atheist analysis and talks about atheism. This is for all you guys that might be seeing me as insane and such. This thread is completely about atheism and agnosticism...ENJOY. Please check the link before filing complaints. This will answer questions for many of you.

My question is for you guys, how many of you will support this more currently and frequently?...if you desire to live pretty much forever. You still have the freedom to die and respect, but we can really start a more popular movement for Atheism, nihilism, and agnosticism.

Do you have a bet going with someone regarding how rapidly you can get yourself banned on these forums?

How can I get banned for this? Did you see what I said , did you watch the video either?
Why do you hate me? You are definetly the most annoyed from me for whatever reason. Are you stressed, I just want to be friends. This thread is completely about atheism and the conversation of atheism and its effects and where its going. Watch the video you wont regret. The moderator cant get mad at this thread, it follows the rules I strongly believe.

Ignoring the myriad other issues of this thread promising to be a train-wreck, I'd just like to offer this:
You might want to tweak your "Hey, just watch this One-Hour-Thirty-Five Minute video from Zoltan!" pitch.

Four other threads concerning the same topic have been closed because they do not relate to the topic of atheism. One would think that you would get the hint, but apparently a safe has to be dropped on your head. I suspect one will be landing soon.

BTW....My impression is that you believe you are on to something new here. In reality there has not been a single concept introduced by you that was not contained in the 1971 Zager and Evans song "Hydra 15,000."
Zager and Evans were the guys who had the # 1 single of 1969, "In The Year 2525" which itself touches on the issues you raise here. "Hydra 15000" was never a hit as a single, it was on a later album called "Food For the Mind", and it is all about replacing the human race with a superior, engineered version of individuals who have had their bad impulses removed. I've tried to find a copy of the lyrics for you, but have been unable to do so.

I do not know you, so I do not hate you, that you are unable to distinguish my bemusement over your immaturity from hatred, is one of the things which bemuses, but not surprises, me.

Okay, then just watch it throughout the day. Are you really arguing that it's soninconvient that someone is talking and all you have to do is watch or just hear. How many calories does that burn? Watch it in bits once a day for the whole week. There are much longer podcast by atheist.

Haha. I know transhumanism is old. I have parents and a couple of grandparents that have shared experiences. The reason it's booming again is because of progressive young people wanting to stand up more for this. Atheism is really old too. You suggest a safe be dropped on my head? How did your comment not get censored? What is this? Haha. But I'm okay. This thread is a lot more maturely placed and atheist than the others. The video also includes atheist talking about the topic with an interview. Did you watch it? How old are you, I'm just curious. I'm glad you don't hate me, thank you. The only thing new is obviously the rising new technology and people supporting it. People who are atheist and want atheist to see the bigger picture.

I found the lyrics .
Zager And Evans - In The Year 2525 Lyrics | MetroLyrics

It's very dystopian cyberpunk, atheist Transhumans want a utopia . But cool song mostly.

My Beliefs are to use observations to describe the things we see around us as best we can. I see many atheist forming up behind people and under flags. Making blind faith statements like "there is no higher power (without proper clarifications). They meet with like minded people to discuss the "real truth" they have. They go on to describe people that don't think like them as "delusional", "weak", and "the root of evil".

sounds awful familiar.

man I get the "safe on the head" thing. I need that tooooo.
