*"I see your face, and it is beautiful. I hear your voice, and it is beautiful. I know that you're different than me, and it is beautiful."* Beautiful message. It makes me cry listening to this. 😢
"Nathan Phelps..." Nathan Phelps, brother of Shirley Phelps-Roper, of the Westboro Baptist Church? Talk about a "rose among thorns." Beautiful piece, Mr Andrews.
Jane Lin Nathan is the son of Fred Phelps. He was (far as l know) the first of his siblings to get out of WBC. His sister (Rachel?) has also legt the church as well. She did a TED talk, give it a search, you may enjoy it.
Thanks for this. My husband and I have been 'out' (as Atheists) for exactly one year now. Both of our families are deeply religious and we both grew up as members of the Pentecostal church. I also went to a school similar to the one you went to (ACE education). To mark this occasion I finally had the courage to hit 'share' on one of your videos as I feel it is important to begin to live an openly secular life. Listening to all of your podcasts has been very supportive as my family has made this transition. Thanks for your work.
Well, I duno, I find it rather stupid and incongruous how this video praises and promotes “difference” and “diversity” yet also, in the same breath, seems to condemn “tribalism”. Considering that TRIBALISM (humans breaking off into and maintaining these separate factions) happens to be the VERY THING which had RESULTED in all this distinctiveness and diversity both biologically and culturally in the first place. Now THIS guy is supposed to be a big stickler to EVOLUTION so then THAT is something HE should already know.
@@alphanova5688 humans breaking off into and maintaining seperate fractions does not mean that eacht "tribe" should consider themselves "the only right one", "the chosen people of od" etc etc and bully the rest. Unity isn't about not having tribals, unity is about respecting each other.
+Alicia Murphy Because if they don't have to think about what those differences are, and can hate simply because of some superficial perceived difference without thought of how trivial that difference is, they are not at risk at looking at themselves and their community and perhaps seeing they are less beautiful than they dream.
+Andrew Tall I think Alicia meant that it makes no sense to hate anything just for being different. It's like hating someone for liking a different color car or sports team. What difference does it really make? Why go straight to hating the other person? Why not just be indifferent towards the difference?
Bought tears to my eyes. This is how we should live. Together, as a WORLD community. We shouldn't care if someone has black skin, loves their own sex, wants to wear womens clothes. We should see he beauty in them and give them support, friendship and love where they need. And be supported, friended and loved in return. This world will never know peace. Not as long as there is bigotry in the world. And it will destroy us. Until there is nothing left.
I was not prepared to cry, but I did. Thank you for this thoughtful video, not much positivity out there today, with the whole us and them, this is wonderful.

+Eddie King I'm sorry, your nation is powerful, not great. No nation is (and yours is in bed with Israel and Saudi Arabia). You have some great ideas and some great people, but just watch a republican presidential debate and you'll see that you have to be particularly wary. The secular community and videos like this give me hope and I wish you the best.
+Etothe2iPi Yes we need to be wary of protecting our freedom. Someone once said, " when fascism comes to America it will be holding the cross and wrapped in the flag. "
We're links in the human chain. Alive at this moment for a brief priceless chance to breath the air. To feel the sun upon our faces. To speak to best words for the best reasons. To peruse the best idea's and to achieve the greatest dreams. To unite instead of devide. To heal instead of harm. And to share together the preciousness of life. My English is not great, but that was beautiful.
It doesn’t begin and end with politicians and judges. I’m from Britain, and I can see that in the USA you have particular problems with a judiciary based on political biases rather than applying the law impartially Where does the hate and fear come from? My initial cynical thought was that it sells papers, wins more subscribers, guarantees click bait, and brings more along to the church/temple/mosque. Fundamentally, every human being should be honest enough to admit and deal with their own perceptions and prejudices. Maybe then the second half of this video will really come to fruition. In an imperfect world, and at a time of bitter divisions in both our countries, it’s more important than ever to realise that the human race is stronger for what unites us.
I can't tell you how many times I've watched this now. It's amazing and absolutely heart melting. We need to see more stuff like this. We need to flood this world with positive messages like this. We need to show tangible real love is superior to imaginary love. Thank you Seth and Nathan.. I don't know you but I love you. You have been my best friends in my journey away from religion, and I thank you. You are beautiful!
I so agree. With so many negative things going on in the world (fighting in Ukraine, *"President"* Donald Drumpf, etc.), it's refreshing to see, and hear, something positive like this.
Not only is a person's differences beautiful, having that diversity is what will help ensure that we have a better chance of keeping the human race alive and thriving.
Breathtaking video, both emotionally and rationally. In the end I felt how luck I am , for being FREE. My desire is that more ppl around the world could break their chains. Thank you Seth Andrews and Nathan Phelps! :)
I have watched and listened to this like 15 times and it still makes me cry. Thank you seth for this, I was so full of rage after this disastrous week and than i listened to this and it brought me back. Again thank you seth this was exactly what i needed.
Well, I'm already on board, but a beautiful video, nonetheless. I especially appreciate the line to the effect that all of us are links in the human chain. Alive, with the brief, priceless chance to breathe the air. This line resonated for me. Not for its poetry, but for its practicality. Fueling one's own hatred, or mistrust, or even dislike of "the other" is such a colossal waste of energy.
I was just reminded of this when you talked to the final caller on the "My Religious Family is Driving Me Crazy" call-in show and I would love to post this message to my Facebook page. This was such a "Beautiful" message after all. ^__^
I shared this with our FB Atheist group and I hope you do not mind... It brought me to tears and is one of the most powerful and poignant videos I have ever seen!!
this was very powerful. being raised in a devoutly Christian family which forced me to go to a hateful church I had a nagging feeling that something was wrong. and that why would anyone teach hate I thought religion was about love and acceptance not hate and intolerance. then years later came the shocking revaluation that most of my moms family whom I disowned are major bigots. it was a shocker because previous visits really didn't do anything to highlight that or hint at it. and I ask myself who would teach her to be so hateful and for that matter my uncle robert look no further and it was indeed my grandfather. I cant follow that kind of thing why because it could be someone I care about. but my grandmother was right about one thing I am a morally right person.
I always cry when seeing things like the signs in there, I am an athiest, and I am also bisexual, so not only am I scared for others, they scare ME too... Just imagining going outside and seeing that, is something that I cannot stand to think about...
Please take some comfort that society is changing for the better. There are or soon will be more people that only which for your happiness and freedom to love than those that might judge you. I'm 52 and only this year told my Dad I was an atheist. I asked him some carefully worded questions and learned he had slipped from his Mormon upbringing to a Deist position. That's when I showed him my membership card to a nearby atheist group. He smiled. I asked him not to tell my Mom though, she is a Baptist and would not understand. But for 15 years I assumed I was alone in the family. Turns out there are far more atheists in the family than not. That's even with several Baptist ministers on my Mom's side. So what I am trying to say is don't assume people are automatically as bigoted as they are in our worst fears of our imagination. It simply isn't true. It is true there are far too many ignorant vocal bigots but their numbers are falling fast. Have a great day and love whoever the hell you want.
Love instead of hate; Inclusion instead of exclusion; Knowledge instead of ignorance; Courage instead of fear; Unite instead of divide; Heal instead of harm; Reality instead of fallacy.................and I see something beautiful! Thank you Seth!
I guess I'm a few years late to the party here, but this is a really good video. I am a rather recent "convert" (for lack of a better term) to this ideology, and I still have much to learn. For those who are interested, I used to be a member of The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Living out in Utah, where most of the fanatic LDS/Mormon reside, this video resonates with me really, really well. I got baptized and accepted into the church when I was 9 years old, much like the people whose families are LDS. Unlike most of my classmates, I remember WHY I joined the religion in the first place. I was always given the choice to join, and I exercised my right to join. By the time I was 9 years old, my Mom had gotten out of an abusive marriage where both of us were beaten on a regular basis. I still remembered all of it, and I knew that my mom would be happier if I had joined the church. She didn't have to tell me, it was something that I intuitively knew. I elected to join in order to help bring my family some much-needed peace, not because I actually believed in God or Jesus Christ. Over the years, (currently 19 years of age) I got taught the principles and the doctrines of the LDS religion. There was a time when I genuinely believed in the church but still had my doubts. Due to life hitting me upside the head, and my PTSD being re-triggered whenever I have emotional stress invading my thoughts, I decided to re-examine my values and my beliefs. After many hours of pondering, I realized that I didn't really want to be part of the church, opting instead for reason, logic, and evidence.
This is just so to the point! This is what I try to teach my children. Do not fear others, do not fear difference. Embrace them and accept them and grow with them. Beautiful video!
Absolutely *BRILLIANT* video, Seth! Using Nathan Phelps as a narrator added both poignancy and irony to the visual as well. I wonder if the WBC and the islamic fundamentalists and all the others who are so determined that we conform to them have any idea how scared and insecure they look to us... ... and how unnecessary all this _sturm und drang_ is.
Thanks for getting me in the feels Seth!! Lol. It made me cry...in a good way. So many people don't see the opportunity to learn from those who are different, they only see an opportunity to separate.
The interview with Nathan Phelps on the TTA podcast was one of the most interesting/captivating podcasts I have ever heard. It is nice to see his contributions to counter is father's legacy continue.
I saw this at the end of one of your speeches my husband was watching. It made me cry! I was raised a Christian, but liberal. I became a Muslim-TRIED to be! I finally just had to admit I am not religious. I don't know if there is a Creator or god of any sort. But I do NOT believe an omnipotent god can't just look down and say "You are forgiven". Or "You are damned", whichever he decides. He doesn't need an assistant! The whole of religion is so filled with contradictions that it appears to be that God has more personalities than "Sybil"!
Amazing work Seth. beautiful and moving and oh such a postitive and beautiful message. If only this could be enough to get through to all the minds that need to be influenced by it, I am sure it will for some, it has to. For the remainder, it will serve to inspire us to keep fighting the good fight to help change the world for the better. Thank you chief. D
This one made me cry so many times... It is such a shame that many people continue to promote hate and division when we can indeed be so much better! Thank You Seth and Nathan, keep up the good work :-)
"It's such a waste to look at all others and hope to only see ourselves" - What a great line!
*"I see your face, and it is beautiful. I hear your voice, and it is beautiful. I know that you're different than me, and it is beautiful."* Beautiful message. It makes me cry listening to this. 😢
Every time!
"When will the madness end?"
When secular humanism prevails.
Only a "god damn atheist" could produce a video this good. One of the best videos I seen on TH-cam lately. Great job Seth and Nathan Phelps.
God damn right !
*"Why are we so quick to see the ugly, when we stand before the beautiful?"* I've often asked that question myself.
because our ancestors thought the raging lion was more symbolic than the pretty flower
Has kind of a Pale Blue Dot vibe.
+Tobias Hagström Yeah he kinda does sound like Sagan.
+L. T C. It's no surprise. Carl was also an atheist.
Fuck you! I almost burst into tears...
Just Beautifull.
thank you
HAHAHAHAHA I was thinking the same exact thing!!
+Livre de Deus I'll admit I cried. (I think you did too) :)
+Livre de Deus Almost? Wuss - I committed to that shit! :)
Gooe Smoo SHUT UP! Don't tell others I dropped one tear!

Bigotry makes me feel physically ill. I don't understand how people can hate others for arbitrary differences.
+Alicia Murphy Because if they don't have to think about what those differences are, and can hate simply because of some superficial perceived difference without thought of how trivial that difference is, they are not at risk at looking at themselves and their community and perhaps seeing they are less beautiful than they dream.

What difference does it really make? Why go straight to hating the other person? Why not just be indifferent towards the difference?
The differences are usually not arbitrary.
In-group/Out-group psychology. Tribalism. Hatred. Religion.
IGNORANCE
"To stand upon the claims of primitive times and primitive minds, declaring that times and minds should never change."
Bought tears to my eyes. This is how we should live. Together, as a WORLD community. We shouldn't care if someone has black skin, loves their own sex, wants to wear womens clothes. We should see he beauty in them and give them support, friendship and love where they need. And be supported, friended and loved in return. This world will never know peace. Not as long as there is bigotry in the world. And it will destroy us. Until there is nothing left.
I can't watch this without sobbing. Choosing Nathan to narrate was such an impactful choice.
I was not prepared to cry, but I did. Thank you for this thoughtful video, not much positivity out there today, with the whole us and them, this is wonderful.
I'm not ashamed to admit that I did as well.
Four years later, we view this from the edge of civilization and wonder what is next.

It makes me more human each time I come back to this video in these times of divide and fear
Nathan was a perfect narrator.. his voice with the video touches the heart and makes you listen ✌
His voice is a combination of Rod Serling (Twilight Zone) and Carl Sagan (Cosmos).
This should be sent to every member of congress and the supreme court.
jillibeens57 I absolutely agree.

Nathan did a good job on the narration!
+Finallyatheist
Yes, it just sounds like the reverb or other effects were overdone; the audio quality goes down a bit from that.
I'm not ashamed to admit that this brought me to tears. TBH, I'm not even totally sure why.

you are fucking awesome :)

Absolutely *BRILLIANT* video, Seth! Using Nathan Phelps as a narrator added both poignancy and irony to the visual as well. I wonder if the WBC and the islamic fundamentalists and all the others who are so determined that we conform to them have any idea how scared and insecure they look to us...
... and how unnecessary all this _sturm und drang_ is.
the problem isn't necessarily the fundamentalists but those who ignore the problem
Mario Pendic And those whose attitude is "my way or the highway" ... which too often include all the classes I mentioned.
This is beautiful and so moving. Thanks.
Such a powerful message, thank you Mr.Andrews & Mr.Phelps
Wonderful. This really moved me. Thank you Seth for writing this.
Perhaps one of my most favorite videos I have watched.
This is POWERFUL. Thank you for sharing such a positive, moving video
This video is criminally under viewed
Thanks for getting me in the feels Seth!! Lol. It made me cry...in a good way. So many people don't see the opportunity to learn from those who are different, they only see an opportunity to separate.
Very moving video. Very well done. I wish more people could see this.
Suzuki Nathie And understand / act upon it's message because unfortunately, as Nathan described, there is the human tragedy of ignorance
That was absolutely beautiful, Seth. Sharing this. More people should hear this message.
The interview with Nathan Phelps on the TTA podcast was one of the most interesting/captivating podcasts I have ever heard. It is nice to see his contributions to counter is father's legacy continue.
This almost brought a tear to my eye.
We have to meet people where they are at, and religious folks live in the realm of emotion.
Good job Seth!!
Anyone who is not moved by this, has no emotions...
This gave me shivers. So beautiful, thank you.
I try to live my life like this.
Thank you for helping others "see the light."
I've listened to this two times in a row now, it's so beautifully done. Thank you for creating and sharing it with us!
we never stopped to think the harm we could be doing others
That was simply BEAUTIFUL, brought me to tears
Seth, you have such a way with words. This video is going straight in my favourites.
Nathan Phelps is one of my favorite human beings.
that was amazing. truly inspiring.
Such a beautiful video.. The end literally brought tears to my eyes. Thank you!
It's so beautiful, I am crying.
I saw this at the end of one of your speeches my husband was watching. It made me cry! I was raised a Christian, but liberal. I became a Muslim-TRIED to be! I finally just had to admit I am not religious. I don't know if there is a Creator or god of any sort. But I do NOT believe an omnipotent god can't just look down and say "You are forgiven".

So beautifully made, thank you Seth and Nathan.
This always brings me to tears! Amazing work Seth ❤️
Wow. Just wow. This video certainly lives up to its name. The message is a thing of beauty.
This is the most beautiful thing I have seen today.
I would like this to be played at my funeral. (not to soon I hope). Poetic justice for captive audiences.
This is truly beautiful. If we all get out there and do our part, changes will begin to happen. Thanks for this video.
I’ve just discovered Seth purely by accident. Thank you so much for this!!!! I’ve shared it with several of my friends.
Amazing work Seth. beautiful and moving and oh such a postitive and beautiful message. If only this could be enough to get through to all the minds that need to be influenced by it, I am sure it will for some, it has to. For the remainder, it will serve to inspire us to keep fighting the good fight to help change the world for the better. Thank you chief. D
I think this may be one of your best. Beautiful is the word.
Make this video great again! Thanks to FFRF for including the clip in your interview earlier this year.
I cried watching this. Thank you!
Perfection. Thank you for this, Seth.
This one made me cry so many times...
It is such a shame that many people continue to promote hate and division when we can indeed be so much better! Thank You Seth and Nathan, keep up the good work :-)
Absolutely, perfectly, impressively nailed it!
It is something really beautiful and powerful. "Why we stand before the light only to turn back and face the darkness?"...I hope they get this.
I watched this long ago long before the last presidential elections.... Beautiful to revisit it. So meaningful especially today.
Wow, I was choked up by this. Awesome job.
