Comedian Russell Brand’s Fear of Atheism

On an episode of the podcast Under the Skin with Russell Brand, actor and comedian Russell Brand explained his fear of atheism:

My fear of atheism is, that if there is nothing else, if this is all there is, the material, the mechanical, then why not individualism? Then why not materialism? Then why humanitarianism? It feels good because it’s nice to be nice to people. But for me, without some sense of a deeper truth, for me there’s only hedonism, there’s only indulgence.

Editor’s Note: Russell Brand proclaimed his faith in Christ in 2024
