Comments by "Mat Broomfield" (@matbroomfield) on "5 Stunning Last Minute Confessions" video.

  1. Hilarious that Brewer thought he live as a guilty man, and all he had to do was confess just before death and then go to meet his sky daddy with a clear conscience. Christians, pah, hilarious.

  2. Mohamed Bentahra You've obviously banged your head too many times whilst praying to Mecca. Your comment was incoherent. Get up off your knees and try to speak coherently this time.

  3. ryudhal I'm glad that we are both in complete agreement.

  5. Black Shooter01 I know plenty about spirituality, but it has nothing to do with religion or an imaginary friend in the sky. I wage war against a corrosive idea that has caused millions of deaths throughout history and is still being used to kill, subjugate women and rob people of their rights. As long as YOU people keep practicing, I'll keep fighting. When you no longer get a special pass for being religious, and you don't HAVE to be Christian to control the biggest military on the planet, then MAYBE I'll start to ease off.

  6. Mohamed Bentahra Ha ha ha - priceless. Now THAT'S what I'm talking about from the religion of peace and love! Once you have been shown up as petulant ignorant little thug you are, your final comment is to wish us eternal suffering. I guess I should be grateful you don't have an AK47 to hand huh? What a good little Muslim you are...

  7. +Will T. Baghard It's hilarious because people actually think that all they have to do is admit their wrong doing to their invisible friend to erase a lifetime of being a scumbag. There couldn't be a more blatantly cynical and man made get out of jail free card.

  8. +Andy Max Andy what has Christianity done to me? On a personal level, I was exposed to a priest who beat me, surrounded by paedophiles who wanted to prey on me, exposed to dark rituals that left me emotionally scarred throughout my teenage years, given guilt that lasted into my 20s if not my 30s, and lied to about the nature of the universe. On a bigger level, Christianity has impeded human emotional progress, prevented the development of vital medical treatments, sheltered paedophile priests, contributed massively to global poverty, tortured and murdered millions of people, and basically stuck its unwanted paws into government across the world. As for not doing anything better, I have dedicated my life to improving the lives of children, and worked for free over the past 30 years helping youngsters to live happier, more confident, fulfilling lives. And what have YOU done?

  9. Joe Spurlock Ask yourself why Christianity has gone into sharp decline since the Internet age? It's because it has come under constant ridicule and scrutiny from people like me. So much as I appreciate you playing Internet policeman, I'll continue a tactic that has demonstrable success thanks anyway.

  10. Brian Long wasted obvious troll comment.

  11. Mohamed Bentahra It's supposed to mean that your previous comment was so incomprehensible that I assumed you must be brain damaged. Ahh, a "No true Scotsman fallacy". Because REAL Muslims would never be unpleasant. And Muhammed never married and fucked a 9 year old girl. And there's no death penalty in Islam for apostasy. That's all media hype right? So your violent anger means that you must not be a true Muslim right? It's great to see you showcasing all the love that  Islam supposedly represents. "Religion of peace" right? Ha ha. You're just one step away from stabbing a stranger on the street yourself.

  12. Black Shooter01 "without the truth"? Muhammed was a warrior "prophet and the Qu'ran has over 100 verses advocating violence. I agree that no sane Muslim would support the actions of the Taliban or ISIS, but that's the whole problem with the book - that it's so open to interpretation, just like the Bible.

  13. Sara Ds Strawman. I never said that confession was a way to be forgiven. I said asking  for forgiveness was. But frankly, Protestant views on forgiveness and salvation are so messed up, and open to debate, that I'm surprised that you would try to argue for them. And for the record, Protestants only represent 25-30% of the Christians on the planet. As for you not cherry picking, so are you saying that you follow every command in the Bible old and new testament chapter and verse because when you say " i believe in what i believe", that sounds like you have established your beliefs independently of doctrinal teaching.

  14. easyboarding mc Another butt hurt Christian too wilfully ignorant to see the harm his religion does to the planet. Go away, educate yourself, then maybe you can talk to the grown ups.

  15. Charlie Burton By what POSSIBLE measure can you assess that the odds are in your favour? I tell you what, as soon as Christianity loses ALL political influence, I'll stop complaining about it, but as long as a president can take the most powerful military on the planet to war and believe that he's doing God's work, I'm gonna keep calling religion out. And I don't live in America, so your final suggestion is as asinine as everything else you've said.

  16. ***** "Those groups you listed aren't religious, they're extremists" Extreme what Candice? Theists. Yu can try to hide the truth by presenting a false dichotomy, extremists OR religious. but the fact is, they were both. "sort of similar to how you're using petty insults to promote atheism."Nonsense. If you choose not agree with me about there being no God, the likelihood of me going on a rampage and killing people is almost zero. If you are a Muslim or a Christian, in parts of the world, there is a HIGH chance that a challenge to your beliefs will get me killed. "Every single thing you do or say has some kind of affect."Quite. So I should avoid fighting for what's right in case a butt hurt Christian who doesn't want to give up her privilege might object?

  17. +Bob Vahn Sigh, theist trying to play the victim, all the while, trying to demean atheism by describing  it as being like the thing you do. Well played Republicans for teaching you that trick, well played. However, there is NO parity between religions IMposing their fairy-tale nonsense on the world, and atheists OPposing it. Atheists want a world where LOGIC and social morality are the deciding factors in issues. We're willing to live and let live so long as others do the same. We take personal responsibility for our actions, rather than deferring it to our imaginary friends as theists do. Now, tell me how ANYTHING I said in my root comments was unreasonable or quit your whining.

  18. +Andy Max Andy, in America, Christians are more likely to be in favour of the death penalty and more likely to be in favour of war by a huge margin. The fact that there are undoubtedly some who are genuinely nice people is great, but by an large, my experience of Christians is that they do NOT follow the teachings of Christ. However, I did not ridicule ALL Christians - just Christians. As for yourself, I don't know about your conversion into Christianity, but I doubt it was based upon a rational analysis of the facts, but was more likely based upon your family's customs. I'd like to think that you might be a nice person IN SPITE of Christianity, not BECAUSE of it. And also, if you don't really follow the teachings of the Bible, you are not a true Christian at all, just a person who grew up in a Christian family and tries to do some good things.Now to the crux of my point, do you believe that no matter what a person does, if he sincerely repents and accepts Jesus, that he can still get into heaven? Do you believe that a good person who does NOT believe in God or accept him can get into heaven?

  19. +Indy Maximus Even if it was true, which I seriously doubt, all that demonstrates is that in the extremes of fear, we will turn to any possible saviour, no matter how ridiculous. Me dying in the trenches during the first world war cried out for their mothers. Does that mean they thought their mothers were going to come and save them? If the God of the Bible existed, the universe would be in big trouble because he's clearly a psychopath.

  20. +Michael Seebran Do Christians believe that they will go to heaven if they accept Jesus and sincerely repent their sins? Yes. Now who's the liar?

  23. Mohamed Bentahra 4 comments but noooo - not arguing.

  24. Mohamed Bentahra "Incomprehensible? If you understood what I said then it is no where near incomprehensible." But I didn't understand your first comment and nor did other people. How can a young adult go stab people in the street? I don't know - ask the young Muslim murderers of Lee Rigby, the British soldier murdered by Muslims who hated just as you do. "the fuck did you hear about Prophet Muhammad (ALW) marry a 9 year old girl? That exists nowhere in the Quran. " So you are saying the Muhammed did not marry Ayesha when she was 9 years old? Better go study those Haddith again Mr "I know 100 times more than you about my religion ". I will concede that there is dispute about this fact even amongst Muslims, but that being the case, why should I take the opinion of a kid on the Internet over the greatest Muslim scholars on the planet? It's hilarious that you caution me to "get my history right" when you have NO way to verify your own version of events. As for me being a keyboard warrior, if by that you mean that I don't turn to violence the second my feelings get hurt or my paedophile hero is offended, then yes, you are right. I am a warrior whose weapon is truth and the keyboard. If you mean that I am incapable of acquitting myself in a physical confrontation, then you are mistaken, I am a multi-competition winning fighter who won dozens of fights up to national level over a 15 year career. And now I am a professional fight trainer.

  25. ***** Nah, you're right, we should all just ignore the elephant in the room and pretend that theology isn't fucking the planet up.

  26. sterling knightley Lol at you, pleading not to turn this into whatever, then immediately launching into an ignorant debate with arguments that I would expect a high schooler to intelligent responses to. And then you finish with Pascal's wager - the lamest of lame arguments, in which you caution that if we don't believe in your "god of love" that we'll have to "piss your pants and beg for mercy like little bastards". Because he's going to be so loving no doubt.

  27. Brian Well let's just review shall we Brian? I am a British journalist with a high mastery of the English language and a superb vocabulary, who has been using the word "whilst" without editorial challenge, in well regarded international publications including papers on Robotics by the Oxford University examining board, for over 25 years. And your experience is? Then you may like to refer to articles that point out that whilst the word "whilst" is falling out of favour, particularly in America, that it actually comes down to a British preference for enunciating s sounds rather than z's in American, that keeps the word contemporary in British English: the mother tongue of English across the world, and MY native tongue. And then please tell WHAT THE FUCK any of that has to do with my initial comment about Brewer believing that he could live a dishonest life only to be forgiven on his deathbed by the simple act of  confession, you pompous, pedantic TWAT.

  28. Sara Ds Honestly Sara, if Christians tried to love people as much as they loved themselves, the world would be an amazing place, and in spite of me being a committed atheist, you would hear me singing your praises for trying to live good lives. If you genuinely practice what you say you do, then you have my utmost respect, in spite of our differences of beliefs regarding the nature of existence.

  31. ***** "Theology isn't what's screwing up our planet. It's resentful attitudes like yours." Is that so Candice? Let's just evaluate - when was the last time atheists ran amok killing people IN THE NAME OF ATHEISM? Now let's check the last time some one did it in the names of religion? Charlie Hebdo, Boko Haram, ISIS, two guys at draw muhammed comp, the Boston bombers, Lee Rigby, 50 tourists in Tunisia. How has MY resentful attitude impacted the planet? Oh no, a few terse words on youtube, plus support for gay marriage and women's rights. I mean honestly, did you give your comment even a NANOSECOND of consideration before you typed it?

  32. Mohamed Bentahra My comeback? How about addressing the points I already made?

  33. Charlie Burton Your comment is like white people saying to Martin Luther King, "You're the reason whites hate blacks." The fact is, theists have had things their way for far too long, and now that the rest of us are pushing back, you don't like losing your position of privilege and unwarranted respect. "have you ever heard the saying "If you believe in God, and he is not real, you have lost nothing; If you do not believe in God, and he is real, you have lost everything." Why yes I have. It's a rephrasing of Pascal's Wager, a silly piece of apologetic argumentation that is easily shot down in flames with the response, "How do you know that you are worshipping the RIGHT god?" after all, the odds are MASSIVELY against you, and most versions of God paint him as a tremendously petty, vindictive being. Given that your version of God is merely determined by the patch of land you happened to be born on, there really is virtually no chance that you got the right one.

  34. Mike Hamm So sad that you didn't bother to pay attention - he didn't die. But even if he had, my opinion would be the same - you can't live your life as a douchebag, then apologise to your imaginary friend on your deathbed and erase all of the crap that you did. As for my maker, I meet her every few months. She's a very nice lady thanks, and I can prove that she exists.

  35. +Ice Warrior With 129 comments before yours, you'd have to pull a quote before I can answer, but your comment about evolution pretty much dismisses you as a rational thinker, so maybe don't bother
    1
  36. +Ice Warrior "Evolution possesses no evidence of micro or macro evolution within a single species."If you're going to perpetuate lies and stupidity., don't expect anything but derision and contempt.Go Google "example of macro evolution in a short period of time". Educate yourself before you try to dumb down those around you. And there are several scientists who would deny a hammer even if it hit them in the face. The fact that a few people with an emotional vested interest (these scientists are never non-theists are they - funny that) are as deluded as you are is of ZERO consequence. But thanks for confirming your belief in Creationism. That alone all but discounts you from a label of rational.
