The Atheist Paladin & Naomi94

One of the perks of being in DC was that I got the chance of meeting two people I had only talked to through youtube. This is not the first time I’ve met someone from youtube; I had the opportunity of meeting Starmagick and Healthyaddict once. However, I must confess I was feeling a bit nervous. You never know exactly who these people are. At least on a party you can just walk away. I met Ernest (theatheistpaladin) first. He made the drive to DC from his hometown and booked himself a room at the same hotel I was staying. The first thing I noticed was that the guy is tall. Over six feet and then some – I felt dwarfed by his height. He’s also a very warm guy. He greeted me happily as I stood at the door shocked because of his height. Cameras lie… that’s why I never trust them. We went for a drink and then tried to catch a movie. There was nothing showing so we went back to the hotel, where we talked for hours and ended up doing a thirty minute interview about his de-conversion from being a bible thumper to an atheist. Saying good-bye was hard. While I tried to cheer myself by thinking I might come back to see him soon, I doubt that will be possible. With my terrible schedules and tight budget, I don’t get to travel nearly as much as I’d like to. Naomi on the other hand is a gorgeous youtuber with a happy go lucky attitude that cannot annoy you. I couldn’t help but notice that she is a very free spirit and a very interesting person to talk to. Boy, did she have stories that made me laugh. Now, I’m back at home, and I can’t help but feel a bit saddened by the fact that these two friends of mine are so far away. Isn’t it funny how friendships can be built over the internet and over youtube? I will soon be uploading a video with both of these characters. I am counting on the shock value of having people see me with these two other well-known atheists from the youtube community. Although Ernest’s bit is quite serious, Naomi’s part will sure be funny. I’m hoping to get a few laughs. We’ll see.

Inmendham's Racism

Interestingly enough there are still people who think Inmendham (Gary) is not a racist. I think these people are cynical because the proof is there, and it is clear. He has also stated that he doesn't believe in the documented way the holocaust took place — which makes him a holocaust denier. Inmendham has also stated that he does not like Jewish people very much. That's right folks, he is an anti-semite.


In one of my latest videos I did point this out, and I said that he was insane, because he is insane. He retaliated with another video (big surprise there), and in the video description it he called me a "dirty mexican stink bug". After I said that this was racist, he said that he only put it there to show me that he can also play this game. To this point I don't know what "play this game" means to him. It probably means that he can show that he is a racist, thus validating my point. In the spirit of this hypocrisy, I made one of those inspirational posters to tackle in a comedic way just how racist and hypocritical he really is.
