A song I wrote about my parents.

I am not a professional musician, I am a broken human being.

      “Video unavailable.” I’m not signed in to YouTube on my phone.

      I am an atheist because I see no reason to believe the baseless claim that any god exists.

      Did you watch any of my videos with an open mind? Here is one explicitly about why I don’t believe in god: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jgC2juc3Rx4

      Non YouTube version: https://snoopsqueak.com/videos/disproving-god

      Your brother, Christopher Stowe, did what he did not because he believed in God, but because of his mental state

      You’re so close. Connect the dots. Who ruined his mental state and why? It was our christian parents doing what the bible explicitly commands. Hitting their children before we were old enough to understand anything. Lying to us every day about god, heaven, hell, and christ.

      It’s a death cult. Stop defending child abuse.

          Just sensible utter destruction of children:

          “Now go and smite Amalek, and utterly destroy all that they have, and spare them not; but slay both man and woman, infant and suckling, ox and sheep, camel and ass.”

          How much child-beating do you believe is sensible?

          Are you saying they should never be stoned to death in the public square? The bible says otherwise.

          If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey the voice of his father or the voice of his mother, and, though they discipline him, will not listen to them, then his father and his mother shall take hold of him and bring him out to the elders of his city at the gate of the place where he lives, and they shall say to the elders of his city, ‘This our son is stubborn and rebellious; he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton and a drunkard.’ Then all the men of the city shall stone him to death with stones. So you shall purge the evil from your midst, and all Israel shall hear, and fear.

          Are you saying children shouldn’t be hit with a rod? The bible says otherwise.

          Whoever spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him.

          Folly is bound up in the heart of a child, but the rod of discipline drives it far from him.

          And before you say something like “it’s actually a shepherd’s rod used to guide-” Nope, it’s explicitly for striking children:

          Do not withhold discipline from a child; if you strike him with a rod, he will not die. If you strike him with the rod, you will save his soul from Sheol.

          I called my mom a bitch because she made excuses for abusing us instead of admitting it was wrong. Should I be put to death?

          For anyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death; he has cursed his father or his mother; his blood is upon him.

          People like you are the reason my parents are getting away with child abuse.

              can I have the verses?

              You lack a functioning search engine? Fine, I’ll do your goddam homework for you.

              If a man has a stubborn and rebellious son who will not obey the voice of his father or the voice of his mother, and, though they discipline him, will not listen to them, then his father and his mother shall take hold of him and bring him out to the elders of his city at the gate of the place where he lives, and they shall say to the elders of his city, ‘This our son is stubborn and rebellious; he will not obey our voice; he is a glutton and a drunkard.’ Then all the men of the city shall stone him to death with stones. So you shall purge the evil from your midst, and all Israel shall hear, and fear.

              That’s Deuteronomy 21:18-21.

              Whoever spares the rod hates his son, but he who loves him is diligent to discipline him.

              Proverbs 13:24.

              Folly is bound up in the heart of a child, but the rod of discipline drives it far from him.

              Proverbs 22:15.

              Do not withhold discipline from a child; if you strike him with a rod, he will not die. If you strike him with the rod, you will save his soul from Sheol.

              Proverbs 23:13.

              For anyone who curses his father or his mother shall surely be put to death; he has cursed his father or his mother; his blood is upon him.

              Exodus 21:17.

              And the old testament was fulfilled by Christ. That’s why we can mix fabrics and eat shellfish

              He “fulfilled” commands to take slaves and rape them? What do you think “fulfilled” means?

              If you believe Jesus is god, then you believe Jesus commanded those things. Even if he later changed his mind and/or the law, he still commanded heinous abuse. You cannot excuse that.

              Also, his entire pitch is “submit completely to me or be punished for all time.”

              There ain’t no hate like christian love.

                Deuteronomy 21:20 And they shall say to them: ‘This our son is reckless and disobedient. He shows contempt when listening to our admonitions. He occupies himself with carousing, and self-indulgence, and feasting.’

                this verse is focused more on the sin of gluttony

                Fulfilled means that those precepts were written in preparation of Christ, and Christ has come, and suffered on the Cross and rose again.

                Exodus 21, again, has been fulfilled.

                Can I have the slaves and rape verses?

                Mark 10:5 But Jesus responded by saying: “It was due to the hardness of your heart that he wrote that precept for you.

                  That verse advocates for stoning a child to death. Stop ignoring the point.

                  Fulfilled means that those precepts were written in preparation of Christ, and Christ has come, and suffered on the Cross and rose again.

                  God needed slave rape to prepare for christ?

                  Exodus 21, again, has been fulfilled.

                  Hey fuckass, stop ignoring my points. Address this:

                  Even if he later changed his mind and/or the law, he still commanded heinous abuse. You cannot excuse that.

                  You can find slave rape multiple times throughout the bible. Abram and his wife’s slave in Genesis. Moses’s army taking the virgins for themselves in Numbers. David’s wives being raped in 2 Samuel.

                  Do some reading for yourself. Stop cherry picking and stop ignoring how blatantly abusive your god is.

                  Fortunately for us, he is not real. Unfortunately for us, you are real, and other real people are DYING for the bullshit you refuse to stop spouting.

                  Be more honest. There is no reason to believe this deadly nonsense. Stop being selfish. No one is going to hell, no one is going to heaven, focus on on real life.

                    Deuteronomy 22:25 But if a man discovers, in the countryside, a girl who has been betrothed, and, apprehending her, he lies with her, then he alone shall die.

                    Deuteronomy 22:26 The girl shall suffer nothing, nor is she guilty unto death. For just as a robber rises up against his brother and slays his life, so also did the girl suffer greatly.

                    The Bible does not condone rape, it speaks out against it.

                    And the word is “Son”, not “child”. I don’t think a 10 year old occupies himself with carousing and feasting

        I watched your videos but it’s full of absurd takes like “Jod”. God can’t be created as he would rely on his creator and thus not be God.

        “God would be subject to the same limitations as everyone else” ??? He isn’t, he’s God. Our omnipotent creator is of a different nature than us.

          Our omnipotent creator is of a different nature than us.

          You believe god is all-powerful? So you must also believe he does not love us. Why else would he create suffering?

          Before you try to use “free will” as an excuse, there is no free will with an omnipotent god. He could create anything any way, he knew what would happen, and he chose to give children cancer. That is psychotic.

              The existence of suffering absolutely disproves any god that is both loving and powerful.

              If god is all-powerful, literally everything that happens is his choice, including free will and what we do with it.

              I personally don’t believe in free will, exactly like I don’t believe in god. There is no evidence for it.

              Stop defending death cults. Real people are dying for your fake god.

                And an omnipotent God gave us free will, but chooses not to take it away. Free will is a beautiful miracle.

                  Yes, and you ignored the counterargument.

                  The existence of suffering absolutely disproves any god that is both loving and powerful.

                  If god is all-powerful, literally everything that happens is his choice, including free will and what we do with it.

                  Your version of god knew what we would do with our free will, including all the suffering that comes with it, and still chose to create us. Your god chose suffering. That is not love.
