re: Is the video screams from hell real?

I kind of liken it to Santa. When you're a kid, you truly believe with your heart that Santa is real, and just assume that he is all powerful and can actually deliver toys to a couple billion children in one night...because that's what you were raised to believe. But then your parents stop reinforcing it, you start to hear things from other children, and think about it yourself, and realize it's not true, nor is it possible.

Religion is like the Santa that your parents keep reinforcing, without the factual evidence (parents admission, presents stop showing) of it not being real. Many/most people choose to continue to believe it despite the fact that it logically makes no sense, can be explained away as "natural occurences" and things like that.

But all that being said, I have no problem with people believing whatever they want, so long as they don't push it on me or others. Have at it!
