Ezekiel goes so hard, imagine being in the king’s throne room when this guy shows up and starts addressing something within the king as a being that pre-exists creation and connects his fall from God to a much larger narrative of humanity than you thought possible, the drama of it all Also “angels appear human-like not because they look like people, but because We Look Like God” goes crazy I love Christianity
Or maybe he was smoking some weed😂 and imagined all that. Tell me why these events dont happen nowadays when we have technology. They only happened in ancient times, Why?
@@brs802As I understand it the Old Testament is basically law and prophecy that leads up to Jesus dying on the cross for our sins. Since all the prophecy in the Old Testament has been fulfilled these events do not happen anymore. It is a genuinely good question to be fair and this is coming from a Christian. There’re probably better people you can look to to explain this as I am relatively new to the faith.

Is it ever I always wondered why would (I) be afraid of a glowing angel like all the figurines I’ve seen. Well now I know. Ok now I know and yea I would have been afraid and God and the angels would have probably been mad @ me cuz I would had still be sacred.

@@jboxy see you and are they even going to say be afraid or are they going to say the same exact thing to try and trick one and to doing their bidding you know what I mean… and from different stories I have heard around from different cultures in the world some look like people but some definitely do not!!!
As a cradle catholic who’s been struggling with their faith this has been such a breath of fresh air from all the other things I see on the internet. Like you talked about all of this with such genuine interest and excitement that it had a oddly strengthening impact to me and I am so grateful ❤
The "Be Not Afraid" thing coming from the most horrifying looking angel is quite interesting. Since you literally could not be any safer when in its presence.
How can most people not understand God doesn't send his higher up angels to visit humans but instead his lower down human like angels because God is not a idiot
@@kingvortex-m1n Which may be a good explanation as to why they would look the way they are being described. The human mind is hardwired to find something it understands in anything, so intertwined wheels with eyes it is.
Really that's not spoken about Christian mythology is how the morning star or Lucifer as you call it is actually the manipulated. He is the embodiment of pride and when you have a very prideful person it's not too hard to manipulate them and the angel that manipulated Lucifer to rebellion is still residing in heaven. It's one of the Divine angels and it's related to exploitation looks for weakness in every thing. For luciferous's pride that was down you can also manipulate someone with greed I don't believe God had so much for grade yet because materialism hadn't come into the world yet

@@scrappychildhood6633 GOD is neither good,bad or evil he doesn't come in framework of Good bad or evil he is beyond everything. Hinduism explains everything about God. Because God is source of everything. According hindu scriptures that explains that God has infinite attributes or traits or powers. One of them is called maya(illusion). God casted his power maya on this materialstic universe including each and every living organism. Exactly why we are filled with ignorance and other limited spiritual capabilities. The reason we are affected by maya is to protect our mental health even though we are spiritual beings but we are in body of human made with materialstic elements and have senses those have very limited capabilities and cannot comprehend God's existence and we cannot live truly genuine materialstic life. Only enlightened beings are able to comprehend the God's existence. Not even angels has that power.
your research conveys the idea really well. Even as a non Christian this was fascinating and it painted the Christian views in a way that shows the beauty of it.
Like real things, there is a beuty and there is a harsh reality to everything, this things are true not because it brings comfort but because the supernatural shows, Jesus showed us and it's documented (research deep enough both sides) at this point, it's as christian lore says "a spiritual warfare" with ignorance and pride being the most used tool
Your enthusiasm for Christian subject matters make it more enjoyable for a less religious person like myself to follow along and learn about it. Your personal connection to your religion does not detract from the fun at all. It adds to it.
As a non-religious person I’m actually super hyped to watch a video like this from a christian who has actually read the bible and other religious writings. Even though im an atheist I’ve always found the study of religion to be fascinating. Hope to have a beer with you some day, dad!
@@runespaze Yeah I’m a lover of history, and religion is a huge part of humanity and our existence. And even though I don’t personally believe in it, I still love to hear about it from people for whom it’s a big part of their lives
@@runespaze nah, this is one of the good ones. most atheists call your beliefs stupid and you stupid for believing in it, doing everything they can to make u feel bad for believing in something.

I respect christians and other religious people that don't try and shove their beliefs down your throat (like dad here) just as I respect non religious people who don't try and force people to stop believing what they believe in.

As a Catholic Christian, I'm glad a channel like this exists where it talks about such Biblical concepts without throwing personal religious beliefs into it, now this is content that every one could enjoy.
As a former catholic all the parishners are biblicly ignorant . I say that not to be mean ,but to speak truth. The catholic church says only priest can interpet the bible . As a former catholic i found that to be untrue . Please read your bible and see for yourself what God the Father says. The bible is for ALL to read , not just a few religious leaders . The Holy Spirit will give you the gift of understanding scripture if you really want to know what God says. God Bless

That’s exactly what I thought when I heard about the original angels! It sounds more like eldritch horror than the sing-songy renaissance Christianity we know today.

When my younger brother was around 3 years old, my mom was a Sunday studies teacher for the church. We were at the church, rehearsing for a choir when my brother wandered off a bit. He pushed his head through a hole in an ornate podium on the temple and got stuck. He panicked and started crying and thrashing. My mom couldn't get him out and was on the verge of tears herself. The rest of us were all kids, no one knew what to do. Then this man came in, we didn't see where from because we were all watching the situation. He didn't say a word, just put his hands around my brother's head and gently guided him out. My mom immediately huged my brother and was calming him and then turned to thank the stranger but he wasn't there anymore. She ran outside the temple, but he was nowhere to be seen. I saw him. My sister saw him. My mom and brother did (although my brother was too young and doesn't remember), and a bunch of kids from the choir were there too. I don't remember his face, but he was dressed in a gray suit. To this day, we all believe he was an angel.
I have a simular story, when I was 14 I lived in fort worth Texas, there was a tornado one night and the lady that lived across the street was stuck in her car, no one could help her, no one could get to her. About 3 minutes into her being trapped in the car some man came and helped her out of the car and helped her get inside. The man then wandered off into the tornado. I saw him, my mom and dad saw him, the lady obviously saw him but days after the tornado the lady went door to door all over the neighborhood to find this man to thank him. Needless to say she never found him and no one knew what she was talking about. Angel maybe?
i love the thought of an angel coming down to earth and over to help out what he was told was a mortal child in need, and then just sees the brother stuck in the podium and is like "Really? *This* is what I was called for?"
Thrones are also called Ophanim. The saying "God sees everything" comes from the Ophanim. Ophanim are not only the wheels on God's throne, they are the "security cameras" of existence for these multi-eyed, gyroscopic wheels see everything in all directions.
The phrase truth is stranger than fiction is what comes to mind when the angels are described. Nothing man has created with his imagination is anywhere near as unsettling and awe inspiring as the angelic hosts.
One of my favorite stories in the Bible is Jacob wrestling with an Angel for his blessing. Such an insane thing to imagine, and the audacity to even square up with one. Wild.
Not Jesus per se. Jacob alludes to having faced God Himself, as he names the place where they wrestled "The Face of God." Moreover, whether it was an angel or a deity who faced Jacob, they did so in the form of a man. Although the logistics of trying to wrestle a four-winged, four-wheeled, fiery angel would be at the very least, interesting.
@@DerickMasai Definitely is Jesus, there’s clear indicators that it is, and in the Hebrew it says that he literally wrestled God and met him face-to-face. That’s why he was renamed Israel by God. Israel literally means wrestles with God. Additionally A mere angel does not have the authority to rename a human being, if we go off the New Testament, Jesus declares to us that we have authority even over the angels, because were made in the image of God. God gives us dominion over this earth and in the garden of Eden he gave Adam the power to name everything that was created. Therefore, logically the only person who can overrule the name that was bestowed by man is God.
@@wahoostacos2095 Exactly. Everything you said is very correct except for alluding that it is Jesus. This is pure conjecture. The passage speaks of God, not Jesus. And as you can recall God is the one who interacted with man more in the Old Testament so I simply don't know where you're getting this other than your own assumptions.
ikr! It's so cool! But the fact that even tho we are so normie compared to them, God still cares about us enough to have us be number one priority... It's just so comforting.
As a Christian I have read many things on angels throughout my life. This vid was the clearest explanation of them. Very happy to have stumbled upon this video!
I learned that there are angels of GOD that are at least 4748.4 miles high in the air!!!! It just goes to show they dont serve the LORD ALMIGHTY for nothing since HE IS THE MOST HIGH!!

@@vids595 Yeah, idk why this video got into my feed, but it was incredibly interesting to learn about the Christian mythology. But then I come down to the comment section and people like... genuinely believe in this stuff. It's wild.
Now this actually having someone teach religion not just preach it is what I like I’m interested in the whole religion thing in a academic way but I want to learn it without feeling like it’s getting rammed down my throat and only getting preached at
It’s multidimensional lovecraftian style horror, with an astonishing amount of historical connections found in other religions, ancient and still existing, around Israel.
Do more of this. You have a beautiful talent to see such poetic beauty in things that baffles me. I finished listening to this and I sat in silence for a moment just saying to myself 'this was beautiful'. I think about your video on Paradise lost often, I loved it deeply. Your talent to draw these hauntingly beautiful pictures with these books and doctrines, is so deep and poetic. It is romantic and I just find it beautiful. Thank you!
I would sell my kidney for a full bible breakdown from Wendigoon. Like a 50 episode series where he gives us a tell-all. I would consider myself more agnostic but goddamn I love the stories in the Bible.
I'm a firm believer that the bible is almost all allegory to something else other than the fantastical elements which could be explained as translation errors over the years of translating from one language to another. (It also could be seen as maybe Aliens as well, since the description of the ophanim being rings within rings that are on FIRE with eyes around the rings and an individual in the centre sounds A LOT like the traditional idea of what a flying saucer with a passenger looks like.) And seriously, if you think about it - wouldnt an alien say some shit like "be not afraid" to some primitive societies that probably WOULD perceive them as gods or angels after doing some in-vitro fertilization and having a virgin birth would certainly reinforce that idea. Just my 2 cents!
It’s these videos and comments like these that remind me, most Christians are good. It’s just that the bad people speak louder so are easier to see. You’re one of them the good ones, remember that. Have a great day
I am so glad you talked about the scripture talking about the powers and principalities, because that is one of the best scriptures to use for angels and their classes or rankings. I was so excited to hear you talk about it, and the entire video in general.
Honestly Im a God and his son fan now I know that's way to common but I just really enjoy the fact that both are wholesome whilst also the most terrifying being I've ever seen angry one punch man eat your heart out
I like the idea that the Thrones realized how horrifying they look to Ezekiel that they toned things down by Revelations Just telling someone not to be afraid doesn’t help much when it’s a some giant eldritch winged wheel monstrosity saying it 😂
@@TheSavageGentMeaning that angels don't actually have a physical form. The descriptions in the Bible are the perceptions of various prophets, but they're perceiving something beyond human comprehension. So the descriptions we have are a representation of something outside our reality. They're not necessarily literal fact.
For real! I'm not religious but the construction of his videos is so fascinating and it makes the information so much easier to retain, and with topics as interesting as some of the contents in the bible, he'd be a really good educator on the subject.
Im not religious at all but I LOVE learning about all the different typed of angels, and the bible itself is essentially a very interesting "story" Thank you for this video!!
I'm an agnostic, but your opening alone got me. Respectful of other's beliefs, but not sacrificing your own for their sake. The "approaching it with reverence" part hit me hard. Good on you. Subscribed.
Merkabah, also spelled Merkaba, is the divine light vehicle allegedly used by ascended masters to connect with and reach those in tune with the higher realms. "Mer" means Light. "Ka" means Spirit. "Ba" means Body. Mer-Ka-Ba means the spirit/body surrounded by counter-rotating fields of light, (wheels within wheels), spirals of energy as in DNA, which transports spirit/body from one dimension to another.
Exactly, I fit into that more agnostic category. I see religion as a way for society to better itself, but it has been perverted by human nature for its greed. Don’t get me wrong their are some that still have that ideal, but it seems to be a minority. Jewish and Islamic views also have the one god. But so much fighting over who’s one god is better? Which Jesus was mostly likely a middle eastern dark skinned Jew. Some Astro physicists are kind of being in a god, if gravity was a little weaker or stronger or that force was weaker or stronger…literally our whole universe would fall apart.

Literally the biggest reason I love your Christianity lore videos is because I never feel like you're trying to sell me something. Even when you're geeking out over how cool it is, because it is cool, and now I have a safe place to learn about it.
People do have wrong idea about teology in general - as science about religion and its culture aspects, its usually confused with praying itself. Its fascinating subject, happy that people cover it!
You’re the first person I’ve watched who included how angels were sanitized during the renaissance for their painting commissions. I took an art history course when learning how to illustrate and learned that the Renaissance is HUGELY IMPORTANT in how we perceive heavenly beings and satanic beings today. Renaissance art is pretty much the basis for the more relatable depictions of angels in particular.
I think they may have tried to water the depictions down to try to (with a lack of better words) lure in any non christians or remaining Greek religious people.
Thank you so much Wendigoon for covering this topic. I was in an artistic rut, where I didn't feel motivated to draw or animate personal projects. I felt like art school just consumed any creative thoughts, with none left for personal projects. Then, I discovered your channel! Now I feel super inspired again! I'm going to do an illustrative series of the different types of angels and demons (specifically in Christian theology). Thanks for the thorough research and inspiration!
I wish people will speak more about the bible in this way, not with the purpose of "sell you" anything. It brings a lot of cultural value and interest, so cool.

My dad told me one time about when he was a kid, he went on vacation to a skiing lodge with his parents and brother. While on the ski lift...thing, his scarf got caught in the pulley system or whatever pulls the lil swing things along, and was slowly starting to strangle him as it pulled tighter and tighter around his throat. Suddenly, two girls in white puffy winter coats walked up to the emergency stop button and pressed it, allowing my dad to be saved. Afterward, my dad and his parents wanted to find the girls to thank them for saving his life, but they were told that no one else had seen the girls, and there were no girls at the lodge matching that description. Furthermore, there were no footprints seen in the snow leading up to or away from the emergency stop button. My dad holds the firm belief to this day that those two girls were guardian angels who saved his life that day.
I think I might have met those same two girls 👧 angels too in Cleveland they were feeding homeless people and asked if any one wanted prayer 🙏 I. Said yes the. One who. Prayed. For. Me. I. Won't. Say. Nothing but I should have been dead long time ago
Even though my family isn't Christian, my mom has a fascination of angels. She doesn't speak English but I'm doing my best to translate this video for her. I hope I can share it with her and I'm sure she will like it, maybe even we can start watching more Wendigoon videos together Edit: it's been a while since i posted this! It took me like two days but, she absolutely loved it, and we even started talking about some stuff from the conspiracy theory iceberg. Wendigoon brings families together:)
Archangel Megatron: “be not afraid” Man: “but-“ Archangel Megatron: *transforms into ‘91 Firebird covered in eyes* “I SAID BE NOT AFRAID” Man: “alright! Alright, alright, I get it, alright”
Megatron didn't turn into a car. In the 1st generation, he was a gun and in other cartoon generations he would transform into some other form of a powerful gun.
As someone who isn't religious, I find the concept of angels and stuff to be fascinating. I also appreciate the way you have approached this topic and your courtesy towards others beliefs. Watched the whole video, by the way.
I'm 100% sure that these descriptions of the seraphim, cherubim and thrones are originating from psychedelic experiences because they are exactly what you experience when consuming copious amounts of mushrooms and stuff. And I think that the strict hierarchical depictions and maybe even a few of the less archaic angel types are inventions to support the authoritarian nature of the church and stuff. I think a lot the old experiences and visions have been very real to the prophets but have been bastardized and twisted by the church to enforce a system that god if they exist would never have wanted.
Religion gets you NOWHERE. Faith gets you EVERYWHERE! Believe, and watch what happens. Perhaps The Most High is calling out to you! Yeshua Ha Maschiach bless you!

@@zachschmitt7559 I struggle to comprehend how literally any amount of research into the topic of angels would fail to teach you that "seraph" is singular and "seraphim" is plural. You don't need to be fucking fluent in and know the entire history of the Hebrew language for that. The guy literally figures it out in real time during this very video, then continues to use the words incorrectly from there. What a joke.
I saw an orphanim in a dream once It was a wonderful experience. It appeared and I watched it move around in my dream. I also believe I met an angel in person once. It was in the wintertime of 2020. I was going outside to the bus stop to get to work. I was feeling completely awful and guilty because I did something I shouldn't have done the night before. I sat down and the snow began to fall. I averted my eyes for a moment and when I looked up a man was coming near. He had brilliant eyes. I had never met him before. He asked me "can I pray for you." I said yes. He prayed for me and then he ran down the sidewalk away from me. It was so bizarre but incredibly comforting. My shame melted away as he prayed. To my knowledge I've never seen him again. The amount of peace I felt after that stuck with me through out the day and for many days afterwards. I'll never forget that interaction.
Yep, and people wonder why angels are so scary and noisy. We have meteorologists and wifi and asphalt roads and central heating. They had hysterical clergymen and other narcissists praying on fear and misunderstanding. "Hear the wind? Scared yet? It's an angel, checking up on you, you better not cheat on me or he'll eat your legs and will let you walk on crutches forever, even in the afterlife!" And people still fall for that shit and go to churches and pray... :s The self awareness of people is as rare as any effect of any god or angel: completely absent from the entire history of the universe.
I thought Angels were something that were pretty cool to begin with, but to think that there might be one out there seated next to the throne of God named “Metatron” is the coolest thing ever.
“Metatron” is a fan fiction. Hebrews 1 : 1-8 1 God, who at sundry times and in divers manners spake in time past unto the fathers by the prophets, 2 Hath in these last days spoken unto us by his Son, whom he hath appointed heir of all things, by whom also he made the worlds; 3 Who being the brightness of his glory, and the express image of his person, and upholding all things by the word of his power, when he had by himself purged our sins, sat down on the right hand of the Majesty on high: 4 Being made so much better than the angels, as he hath by inheritance obtained a more excellent name than they. 5 For unto which of the angels said he at any time, Thou art my Son, this day have I begotten thee? And again, I will be to him a Father, and he shall be to me a Son? 6 And again, when he bringeth in the firstbegotten into the world, he saith, And let all the angels of God worship him. 7 And of the angels he saith, Who maketh his angels spirits, and his ministers a flame of fire. 8 But unto the Son he saith, Thy throne, O God, is for ever and ever: a sceptre of righteousness is the sceptre of thy kingdom.
I agree. Angels are wack but demons are just really really cool. Edit: keep them weird replies coming I don't understand them but they're amazing anyway lmao (also I did say angels were cool I just happen to think demons are cooler lol)
Story from one of my friends: A Mormon man from Hong Kong was doing his mission in England, but could barely speak a word of English. He was feeling pretty stressed out and downtrodden, till (his words) a beautiful woman saw him having a breakdown and started talking to him perfectly in Cantonese to comfort him and offer support. Later, when he was describing the encounter to some of his friends he said "I think I met an angel?" When he described her, they realized it was in fact our mutual friend Claire, who has a doctorate in languages, and just happens to be a lovely person.
While I may be atheist, that sounds like a very good example of what Jesus wanted from his followers, loving others as yourself, and “what you do for the least of my brothers, you do for me.” Sometimes when people see those in need as like Jesus, they can become an example of His love for those they help. Sorry if this doesn’t make sense, it’s been a long time since I’ve talked about this stuff, but this would have made me very happy years ago, and still makes me happy. Thanks for sharing the story. 😊
I dunno if anyone has ever mentioned this before, but when it's described as some of their wings having eyes, the first thing I thought of was actually peacock feathers!
I think that “archangel” may be more of a title and position of leadership than anything else, considering that Michael could be a seraph, and that Raphael could be the leader of the virtues.
As a Christian, I love seeing both Christians and Nonchristians being so wholesome in the comments. Our dad Wendigoon has brought us together once more
That first choir is so confusing yet fascinating. Also I just want to mention how wendigoon is the definition of a child’s mind in an adults body, you can tell that he is genuinely hyped to teach and tell you about these topics no matter what you think or how you take it
Demons are terrifying, but the Heavenly host... Yea, luckily they're on our side, I don't envy a demon who would wanna pick a fight with any of the first choir
I'm not a Christian, but I come from a Christian family and I've always found Christianity fascinating. It's so cool, I cannot express my adoration for biblical lore.
It’s because it’s true. We intrinsically drawn to it and we know if our hearts this secular world isn’t what it seems. Or that’s just my take I believe it to be true but definitely difficult to absorb it
its honestly refreshing to hear a non-believer enjoy the Bible. its easy as a Christian to be defensive all the time due to tribulation, its nice to hear positive feedback
My grandpa and two uncles once encountered two angels that helped to fix their truck in snowy conditions but were not dressed for the weather. They were walking along the road in the middle of nowhere and helped with the truck but when my grandpa turned to thank them, they were gone. Best angel story I’ve ever heard.
A similar thing happened to my father. He was taking a long drive in the dead of night on an empty highway. And he saw some sort of place off the road so he pulled over thinking maybe he could get some gas. So he hopped out and it was very eerie and incredibly dark, and he was already scared, and he kept walking until he was walking on stone and suddenly saw a weeping angel statue and saw a creepy sign that read Newman’s cemetery. He ran back to the truck, looked both ways and there was no cars, then was about to fill up the tank with his emergency can of gas when he felt a tap on his shoulder. He turns around and there’s a mustached cop and a cop car right behind his truck with a completely identical cop leaning against the hood. They said to him something like “You shouldn’t stop on roads like this at night.” And he got in his truck and left. He looked in his review mirror, and the car and the cops were gone.
If they were in Wyoming, those were just the locals. We acclimate to the winter quickly and are prone to wearing "inappropriate" clothing for the weather
my dad and uncle had the same thing! They rolled their car in a very remote area somehow. they were fine and so was the car, but they could't get it flipped upright. Out of nowhere these two guys in a Citi Golf show up, flip the car, and disappeared before my dad could thank them.
I was born Christian and had a falling out of religion and regained my faith a couple years ago and to learn more about my faith and see someone who is as excited as you to talk about it is really awesome. These videos are in a weird way strengthening my faith and a good start to learn a bit about it. Thanks man.
The angels are like God’s holy and benevolent monsters. The cherubim are even meant to look like terrifying hybrid animals. It’s very allegorically poetic and beautiful.
@@arieson7715 The demon asmodeus is described as looking almost exactly like a cherubim, with the same faces and wings. And also claims to Solomon that his father is an angel. So, the answer to your question is probably lol.
It feels good hearing someone talk about the Bible from a neutral pov. Not ridiculing the weird and hard to explain aspects while also not shoving the content down our throats. You're awesome!
Fun fact: my dad when he was a kid was in a car accident where half of the car was off a cliff edge and the other half was on cliff. But magically a man showed up to pull them out. He remembers the man pulling them out but doesn’t remember anything else. One thing he does remember is the man saying absolutely nothing besides him saying “I’m always watching and smiled at my dad” and pretty much disappeared. My dad lived in a very small community and knew everyone and my dad and my grandma didn’t know who he was…my dad thinks it was his guardian angel.
Your dad is a liar or had massive trama or was majorly mistaken... Its a shame you're telling this story as if its true years later, goddamn it use your brain.
My grandmother had a similar experience. About a decade ago she had gotten into a car accident and had little injuries, but from seemingly nowhere, she said 2 young women appeared next to the car and told her to call the ambulance. My grandmother said she was fine just had some bruises, but the girls said "Oh no no, you need an ambulance so you can get you treated properly", shortly after grandma called the ambulance, she turned to the girls who had disappeared just as mysteriously as they had arrived. When she got to the hospital and they scanned her, they found she had a tumor growing in her, but it was small enough that it wouldn't be difficult to get removed. She said that she's grateful to what she believes to be a couple of guardian angels that helped save her life.
@@appleid3151 Calm down mr. edgy atheist. I dont believe in god either but there is no need to be a douche about it. His dad likely believes this 100% and as such calling him a liar is just dumb. You would say he is mistaken. Use your brain.
Somethin like that happened with my grandma and her sister is a whirlpool at a lake. Nobody saw two kids almost die. She said silver headed twins dove in for them.
I’m a non religious person. But I ADORE these depictions. I don’t know what it is about them but they are so beautiful and fascinating. Thank you so much for making this video, wendigoon. I love learning more about these depictions and this really helped me!
Hey I’m not coming from judgment at all and just curious because I haven’t asked a non religious person but even as a non religious person do you think there isn’t a higher power at all? Or do you think there is a higher power but not on a religious standpoint? Once again I’m just curious and would love to hear your opinion
@@DevanAshborneI'm not the person you asked, but I'll answer anyway lol. I don't believe there is a higher power personally, at least not in the traditional manner of a being overseeing life and being responsible for creating it. I believe in certain vague concepts such as mother nature- not in the sense that mother nature controls or actively influences us, but that it connects us with nature and other living things. This doesn't mean that everything is equal, it just means I respect that everything out there is trying to survive. From viruses, to parasites, to fish, birds, etc. We all share a common goal of wanting to continue to survive. Anyways. If there is a higher power out there in the traditional sense, I cannot believe that they are a "Good" being. I think they'd have to be a neutral being. I've never been able to prescribe to the belief that bad things happen to good people for a reason. I can't live with that. To me it's much more comforting to think that bad things simply happen sometimes, and that's alright, We just have to figure out how to keep going.
@@someoneidk308 wow that’s a really fascinating point of view and I love that! Some Christians do believe god is only good but are actually taught to fear god in a manner. I don’t label myself as Christian but someone who simply believes in god and the power of manifestation and all that lol. Thank you so much for taking your time in telling me your views, I think it’s really captivating and interesting and now have a better understanding 🖤
@@DevanAshborneI’m not religious, but I have a personal idea or belief that the universe itself is an entity in some manner, and we all exist and are conscious as an extension of that. We are what brings life to the universe, existence itself. I like to hear these stories and descriptions, but the bible is a book written by people about things I’ve never seen and experienced, about things that they may have experienced and not understood. The only thing I know is I exist, and I guess in a sense that is my religion, that all there is is existence and we are manifestation of it. If something exists and nothing perceives it…. Then does it really exist?
@@DevanAshborne I also have no belief in any higher power. I think we're simply a product of the natural order of things, a lovely coincidence. I don't do good things out of fear of hell or a need to reach an afterlife - I just do good because it's the right thing to do. In my eyes, that is the purest form of kindness, far more than any religious doctrine, because those force incentive.
