A Human God?
OP - February 08, 2009, 09:13 PM

Just made this quick video - hope it's OK. I should also acknowledge my debt to All_Brain's blog which I read last year and the idea of a "Needy God" really rang a bell with me.

Bravo! I think this is your best video yet, Hassan. It's really good. I'm going to give it 5 stars and favorite it.

Thanks

One of my Christian subscribers is not so happy - they just want me to criticise Islam only!

TO THE MAKER OF THIS VIDEO . The God of the bible gave his creation FREE WILL. We are to choose wheather we wanT to worship him or Satan. When God created the kingdom of heaven, he chose to give his angels free will. Lucifer decided to rebell and in doing so, He convinced 1/3 of the angels to rebel also and follow him. This is why GOD created hell and those humans who CHOOSE to follow satan, have the free will to go ino hell.

......In conclution, The true God (the God of the bible)does not require a humanistic need to have people worship him, he gave us FREE WILLl. 1 star for this antichrist video

I once had a dream in which the meaning of life was revealed to me but then I woke up and forgot what the answer was.

I'm hoping I still have it hidden in my subconscious, but from what I can remember it wasn't anything too complicated.

Thank you, Hassan. Another great video that succinctly conveys an important message - that God is an asshole. Ok, that's not what you said, but it's what I think anyway

Hassan, would you be interested in translated subtitles for your videos? I've never uploaded a video, but is it possible to add subtitles subsequently? Does somebody know what format YouTube uses?
If you like I could provide German and Turkish subtitles. Perhaps Zaephon would be a better translator for Turkish, or at least he could review mine if he has time and wants to help out. Other users on this forum could provide subtitles as well, in a foreign language which they speak/write well.

I had a dream wherein I figured out what happens when we die. I can't remember it now, of course.

Hassan, your videos (and blogs) ALWAYS seem to ring a bell with me! lol

The very topic of this video is one of the FIRST things that made me question religion. As a child, everyone would tell me: 'god wants this' 'god needs this' 'god asks for this' etc etc.. and all that time in my head i couldnt help thinking how that contradicted the whole idea of God. All these wants and needs seemed so HUMAN to me, and thus didnt make sense. I couldnt wrap my head around the idea of an omnipotent supreme creator, that required such vain and human like demands..

p.s. you have a very eloquent voice! perfect for documentaries and commentary

An excellent video (someone already said best one yet?). Since it is not directed at any particular religion, it will completely fly past most mental defense that people of a religion will have.

"Ask the slave girl; she will tell you the truth.' So the Apostle called Burayra to ask her. Ali got up and gave her a violent beating first, saying, 'Tell the Apostle the truth.'"

Good vid. Short and sweet and to the point. Such an obvious fact yet hard for believers to digest.

Knowing Islam is the only true religion we do not allow propagation of any other religion. How can we allow building of churches and temples when their religion is wrong? Thus we will not allow such wrong things in our countries. - Zakir Naik

Great video as always Hassan and quite possibly my favourite one. This is one of the reasons why I left religion and will never go back.

I still preferred his life story and the main one he has on YouTube. This one is a powerful one for those who are starting to question, as I think most apostates began their struggles with their questions of a Quranic God.

I was waiting for Sparky to arrive to defend Christian God from this blasphemy but I guess I'll send out a prayer to Christian God Himself.

Christian God Christian God where art thou,

Please send our sparky back for another debate,

Of coursethou have a right to demand worship,

Didn't thou send thy son(who's also you) to die temporarily on the Cross?

All these people are "bastardizing" the one true faith, along with the false faiths.

World renowned historian Will Durant"...the Islamic conquest of India is probably the bloodiest story in history. It is a discouraging tale, for its evident moral is that civilization is a precious good, whose delicate complex order and freedom can at any moment be overthrown..."
