Daniel Everett: Endangered Languages and Lost Knowledge

This hour and a half video from fora.tv featuring Daniel Everett speaking about his experiences with the Piraha people of Brazil is absolutely fascinating. Not only does this tribe only believe in things for which they have evidence, or someone they trust can testify about, but they also do not have words for numbers and may even bring into question the idea of recursive language. Interestingly, even though they won't believe something without evidence, they apparently aren't without superstitions. They still consider Mr. Everett to be some sort of spirit being. This video is well worth the time it takes to watch.

A classic example of critical thinking from the creator of Why Won't God Heal Amputees? For those that think that there is an interventionist god operating in our lives and the world we live in, this should be requisite viewing.

TheThinkingAtheist - Divine Protection

I actually have mixed feelings about the following video. It makes a great point, and one that is really lost on the believer (well, it was lost on me when I was a believer, and also on many that I still know). But, I would have liked it more had it not been made so much like one of those late election political ads. You know the ones I'm talking about, where they have the tense music with the concerned sounding narrator saying things like, "Congressman Smith wants to feed your children nuclear waste for school lunch. Congressman Smith also has a body hiding in the trunk of his car right now. Do you really want to elect someone who wants to feed kids nuclear waste and has a body in the trunk of his car? Neither do we." Like I said, the point of this video is great, but I'm not sure that I'm 100% in love with the style. But, obviously I still think it's good or I wouldn't have posted here. Now, if only a few more, non-critical thinkers will see stuff like this and maybe, just maybe start to reflect on it...

Wow. This is completely amazing- Bertrand Russell on camera. He's someone whom I didn't realize had lived into the television age. This is just such a wonderful hidden little gem. I can't believe it is on YouTube.

Susan Jacoby Interviewed on Freethought Radio (Part 2 of 2)

It may be done with stick figures, but the hilarious video by NonStampCollector cracks me up every time.

Lack of Belief in Gods

Created by QualiaSoup, this 10 minute video very succinctly and logically lays out the case that Atheism is simply a lack of belief in god(s). This will be old hat to many who are practiced in critical thinking, but may be challenging to those who aren't used to analyzing preconceived notions.
