7. Mmm. Atheist..Stunning entertainer, but a lot of his stuff is arrid. Young atheists love him here in the UK. But I’m always disturbed by him, and them. But i enjoyed your video. Thank you.

   1. It’s good to listen to others’ points of view sometimes. I’m not sure what to make of him. But he is a clever comedian.

      1. I thought his talk was great – good advice! I recently did an Earth Sciences course with a university. It was fantastic. But in the student’s forum where young people were struggling out of the religions they had been brought up in, I saw them attacked most cruelly by atheist students who were rigidly quoting atheist (new atheist) dogmas. I also belonged to UK Skeptics forum for many years. It dawned on me that Atheism as promoted nowadays is a dangerous ideology because it is philosophically empty. I think we have a lot of young people searching, but not finding…..

      2. There is a dearth of spiritual knowledge and understanding I find. I agree – people are searching for answers and something to believe in.

   2. I found the video quite endearing although I am not an atheist. I live in u.k & have never heard of him but then again there are lots of people I have never heard of.

      1. I think Tim Minchin is Australian, and he tours here. Hes been on BBC where he was told to perform a 3 minute song – which he did – lewdly perhaps. https://youtu.be/58mE7Vy1Xrc

      2. Thank you Elizabeth

      3. He is deliberately controversial with his songs, political commentary and comedy to provoke discussion and bring attention to issues. Much like newspaper cartoonists do

8. Never heard of him but he is kinda like robin Williams. Known for being a funny person but undernith full of everyday wisdom.
