The Reviews about Thoughts of a Dying Atheist (page 9/ 19)
------ performed by Muse


the large boulder... | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/25/08

A boulder large enough to be impossible for an infinite God to lift would need to be infinite as well.

However, a boulder by definition is finite.

If it's shoddy reasoning like this that keeps people from the truth, then I'm kinda scared.




to socrates | Reviewer: Taaniel | 3/16/08

Socrates u said that if God is almighty then could He make a boulder so big that he couldn't lift it, he already made one, the answer is you. He cant make u do something u don't want to, because God gave us free will.



Irrational | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/9/08

"omg. i think of it this way.... why don't people just say they have nothing to lose? i mean, if you decide to be a christian, i mean you get saved or you die like you were inn the first place. you're stupid if you think it's just an excuse."

Obviously, to start, all theists are deluded. This seems like a very close resemblance to Pascal's wager. The absurd thing about it, is that it does not take into consideration the hundreds of millions of other god's that have been believed in by many people. If you were to see an illusionist do an absolutely brilliant trick, that no one could describe how it was done, would you attribute magic to it? No, ur reason tells you that obviously there is a very disappointing solution to it, but you just don't have the ability to think of it.

To the actual poem, I think it is every theist's dream, that an atheist would be afraid of death, but it is not so. 'Tis actually the theist's fear of death that will make them irrationaly respond with the belief in a God. For instead of facing the reality of death, they would rather believe in a fanciful little afterlife. Just remember, with the debate of a god, there is not just the Christian God or no God. Any theist has a 0.000000000000000000009% chance of being correct



Disproving God | Reviewer: Socrates | 3/8/08

God can be disproved by the proof that is given towards his existence, it is stated in the bible that God is omnipotent (all powerful). However, if this were to be true, then he would be able to create a boulder so heavy that he himself could not lift it, thus disproving that he is omnipotent. It is paradoxes (something that can be disproved by the definition of itself) like this that disprove any existence of an omnipotent omniscient being..

Yours Truly,
Socrates

Footnote: Muse are a brilliant band and i sincerely think they should be knighted or something equally as prestigious, however i hate the monarchy (lazy cunts) with a passion and therefore am at war with myself to wether or not i would want them to be knighted..how fucked up..



messed | Reviewer: Anonymous | 3/3/08

omg. i think of it this way.... why don't people just say they have nothing to lose? i mean, if you decide to be a christian, i mean you get saved or you die like you were inn the first place. you're stupid if you think it's just an excuse. i've seen things that are impossible for anything of this world to do. just... if you think it's an excuse, then prove it. you still cant' decide what happend with countless of things that have happend at the works of God's hands...



to atheists | Reviewer: Ben | 2/27/08

Atheist is a religion,
so dont try to say shit like, you're atheist because you dont believe in religion, I think alot of people need a lesson when it comes to Christianity, its not about dressing up and going to church, or religion, religion is shit, I'm a Christian, simply because I believe in God, and I know he's there because he's tested me, and saved my ass a few times. This song has a point to it, for those Atheists that don't understand and think that it just communicates the message "Being Atheist is cool." and btw yes I do know Matthew Bellamy is Atheist, but he also doesnt really know what to believe based off of what he has said in interviews.



To Billy | Reviewer: Theist | 2/26/08

I'm the kind of person that doesn't believe in anything that cannot be proven via science. And though people say: 'How can you prove that god doesn't exist?' how can they prove that "He" does? For someone like me, I see religion as a sort of coping mechanism, something made up that allowed people to explain the unexplainable events. So when something came along that was normally impossible to explain; "Why?" it would be easier to say that some form of "higher power" controlled the planet (which was flat at the time) than actually explain how and why it happened.

Please post an example of an impossibly explainable event which was related with god and religion and was in the same time theologically examined.Second of all , truth is that you confessed where you believe.In science , or in other words in human kind.Take in mind though that you have faith in a bunch of atoms not in something true proven and not misjudging.

Also, has no-one noticed that amount of advertisements that have been published encouraging people to believe in god? I even get calls from companies, pushing their religion on people. And I find it even more impossible to believe, because it makes me feel as if it was all just a giant scam!


I don't know where are u from.But judging by globalisation nobody advertises God.What capitalism tries to do is persuade people believe in ego and materialism nothing more nothing else."What are my needs? This this and that.I don't give a fuck for anyone else"

"Q:Can you prove reality?"
"A:No , don't think so."

Didn't think so.

Is it not possible for people to believe what we want? Must we be an uniform society? It confuses me, how about you?

But that is on the side, and none of that should be taken as Muse's view on religion, this only my view, and if you would like to verbally attack me, so be it.

Anyways, I love this song!! Muse FTW!



Dont diss others beleifs | Reviewer: Joanne | 2/26/08

well for all those people out there who dont believe in God i fully respect you...but to several people here who have insulted my God i dont think that is fair. I dont insult your beliefs so what happened to respect? Yes it may just be a piece of mind thing to many but it is my life.
I became a Christian less than a year ago and i have sdeen the most amazing transformations in my outlook on life...
Even if you dont believe in God or heaven or hell id recommend to read the bible because it does have some amazing messages about life in general, respecting people and some awsome adventures to!!!
Anyway what i should be talking about...this song is awsome!!!



wth | Reviewer: hello | 2/25/08

i'm an atheist. (dont belong to a commonly known religion or such stuff)
not that it matters, what religion i am, the song does not tell anything about religion, it only tells of faith (of an individual, not a religious group, or whole religion or all atheists)
maybe it could be understood in other ways, who cares, its art and it should be that way.

so bible, god and such stuff really doesn't fit.

this kind of debates really bore me.
but if i may say anyway- my point of view is that religion is something made up by people in old and middle ages (that is in my opinion the peak of human stupidity).
so it sucks how many troubles and problem it causes.

boredom.
gr8 song, btw.

Q&A
Q: "Is there anything on the ten commandments about not pushing your religion on people?"
A:"No."

Didn't think so.

Is it not possible for people to believe what we want? Must we be an uniform society? It confuses me, how about you?
