How do you feel about atheist youtube personalities?

[ShaMan]

TTA's vulgarity and rants are often counter-productive to the points he makes (which I often agree with). When he sits on a panel to debate with others, he's articulate, respectful, and communicates clearly without the usage of profanity and rude, insulting behavior - this is the TTA that I listen to. I concede that on his channel he may comport himself as he desires, and that many people like his style there, but for me, I see no value in making a point amid the atmosphere of vulgarity, profanity, and rude, insulting behavior.

If I wanted to tell you that lighting your garage on fire was a bad idea, and I knew that you thought it was a good idea, I'd not waste my breath insulting you for what I thought was stupidity. I wouldn't call you names and swear at you. I'd do my best to appeal to you using reason and logic - without the vulgar bling. These are my thoughts.

Has anybody else noticed how horrible the intro music is for most of the channels? Specifically the ones that use some sort of rock band (I'm looking at you Atheist Experience!) I'm gonna go on record and say that "Atheist rock" is just as horrible as "Christian rock". And it saddens me because we're supposed to be a more savvy group of people. At least savvy enough to know that just the IDEA of Atheist Rock is terrible.

I agree about TAE's open song - sucks

I disagree. Read the lyrics
The music DOES NOT suck either

I recommend TheLivingDinosaur.

Edit: I can't believe I almost forgot. Our own DeistPaladin has several well researched and informative videos.

The Amazing Atheist is not without tact. He definitely has an idea of when to be serious and when to behave appropriately. I find both of his sides to be flattering. The way he disrespectfully tears into opposing viewpoints is often funny and I see that as a very good quality in TJ. If he didn't have that funny side and was dry and boring he might not be as popular with me or perhaps a lot of people for that matter. It's not like he's using high etiquette. He's just saying thing as it comes naturally to him. I am a fan of shock value. The amazing atheist says things that could be construed in a disrespectful way that I find very clever. He may not be for everyone but the way he speaks reaches me at a personal level and he does more than just deliver dry facts and arguments. I think he has an interesting personality and he is an entertaining guy, as well as being smart to boot.

Haha Oh I thought of that!! Both myself and Rush were very careful not to pingeon hole them into "Atheist Rock" *gag* Just the name is silly.

Anyhow, Rush kicks ass.

Haha... I'd dare say that most bands are 'atheist' bands. It's only christians that have a need to pepper their every song with propaganda. Unless you consider sex and good times propaganda, then I'd say that we're all guilty

One youtuber that I find rather embarrassing to watch is MrRepzion. He seems like a nice guy and all but something about the way he comes off, he just seems to be laying out his dirty laundry in his videos way too much. He's just embarrassing, I dunno. I've only seen several of his videos.

The best atheist youtube personality in my opinion was Edward Current and his brilliant satirics. Too bad he stopped uploading like 3 years ago.

Not a fan of theAmazingatheist or Pat Condell.
