Were you ever an angry atheist? I've been an atheist for awhile but recently I've been reading abt religion, watching videos and interacting with hardcore Christians and it's made me become so hateful to their ideas (and Islamic ones). How do you deal with being upset about religion?

"I personally try to find humor in their position, how uninformed and narrow minded they are. I turn it into a joke. not the more serious issues (islam) but christians"

first i think "yeah muslim is current most extremist infested faith, christian not as bad cus no murderers" then "cant blame extremist action on muslim faith, keep extremist and muslim sepperate" now "its not faith its ideology of faith, ideology is a serious factor in causing bad actions"

the problem is... the ideology is one of supremacy, war, force and strict adherence to belief
yes, not all Muslims are bad, that's obvious... but the ideology behind them is intolerant and is incompatible with western society
Christianity USED to be bad, but now it's not nearly as harmful (aside from a few)
If there weren't millions upon millions of people who agreed with sharia law then we could say the same, but the Islamic faith is regressive and it has enough followers who support it that it is dangerous to this of us who ascribe to a free culture
the Islamic ideology continues to fuel people to do horrible things and that's good enough for me to treat it the same way atheists treat extreme Christians

In one video you said that Jesus was never born. I urge you to research a topic called Jesus of history Christ of faith. It notice the difference between the historical and supernatural aspects of Jesus. The fact that he existed is unquestionable but whether or not he was God is up to faith.

I disagree
I urge you to watch Richard Carrier's lecture on the historicity of Jesus
Mathew and Luke are based on Greek play-writing structure and were written as a response to the popularity of Paul's writings... Paul just made Jesus up. Paul never talk about a physical jesus but a spiritual one who lives in heaven.

Shoe said she's not down with multiple male partners but comedically dismissed ("next question") at the idea of multiple female partners. Would you ever be in a poly relationship with Shoe and other girls?

I don't have any problems with the idea of polygamy.

How should I reconsile my Skeptic with my Turanism - I mean nationalism isn't anti-science per say, but do you see any obvious conflicts with those two? Been told by many people that you can't be a skeptic and a nationalist/turanist at the same time.

skepticism doesn't require you to have a specific political position.
ideals in general aren't cohesive with skepticism, but everyone has ideals, even skeptics

The U.S.'s highest time of unemployment was during the Great Depression, not now. The jobs that the illegals take are jobs Americans generally won't do. States have deported illegals and had to use prisoners in the fields. They didn't work as hard as the illegals.

I've heard this "Americans won't do them" lie so often
I can find you a dozen people in an hour who would love to bump an illegal out of their position
the reason legals can't get hired is because business owners don't want to pay minimum-wage
