I was reading about an awful helicopter crash in Texas that tragically killed not only the pilot, but also two young newlyweds......literally minutes after their wedding. Amongst the mainly sympathetic messages was one which said, "Awesome, you get to spend your honeymoon with Jesus". A truly sickening sentiment - 3 lives lost, 2 of them celebrating the happiest day of their lives, in what will no doubt have been a horrific accident, and someone thinks that it's "awesome". It beggars belief that someone, (evidently called Carol) would actually post that message.

May i present to you, my version of pascals wager, where i removed the black and white fallacy: There are lots of storys about gods all over the world. Many of them condemn the belief in the other gods. So i can assume believing in the wrong god will get me into some kind of hell. Also, i have no way of telling wich one might be the correct one story. Therefore, the safest thing to do is admitting that i just don't know. All i can do is do my best to live my life so that it not hurts anyone, preferrably helping people, trying to minimize any negative impact of my life on the earth. So when i die and there should really some creator, i can step in front of him and confidentially say: "I did the best i could do". And if i die and there is no god, i can die knowing that i will be remembered as a nice person.

(From my book) In Exodus 32, Moses returned to camp carrying the Ten Commandments, only to find his followers had made a golden calf to worship. Knowing the tablets would probably be ineffective at this particular moment, or by sheer anger; he dropped the tablets breaking them. He then proceeded to massacre three thousand of his own people under the pretense of God’s wrath. After this calmed the crowd down, he went back up the mountain to make new tablets. How convenient the next set of tablets covered the topics of: do not worship any other God, do not make fake idols of God, and do not use God’s name in vain. Any reasonable person can see, Moses never spoke to God, knew God, or received directions from God, but merely devised a plan to control his mob through killings and text. How could God be so intimidated by a gold relic? Surely, God’s love and power could overcome a small inanimate piece of gold? But for Moses to control his mob, he had to paint God as vindictive, revengeful, jealous, and an angry God. A God so insane he is willing to kill his beloved creations.

Jesus is the only path to Heaven. Your soul doesn't die. It will live forever in Heaven or Hell.

@@koipond22 pascal reasoned that it was good for us to believe in a random God, whether or not there was proof, in order to avoid consequences of not believing (just in case). I believe in God because I am devoted to His Word, The Bible, and He clearly explains everything you need to know about belief in Him. God wants to have a relationship with His children, wants us to understand His free gift of Jesus' sacrifice to pay for our sins so our souls can be with Him in Heaven. You cannot earn your way into Heaven. The Bible, particularly the New Testament, clearly states that you can only enter Heaven through Jesus Christ. He asks His followers to help non-believers to understand the importance of knowing our choices for our soul's eternity. It's all about the Bible and God, not me. I don't want any human on this planet to miss their Heavenly destination by rebuking Our Lord and Savior. "For what shall it profit a man if he gains the whole world, and suffers the loss of his soul." Jesus Christ .Colossians 2:8 Beware lest any man spoil you thru philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ. Seems pretty clear to me. I believe God means what He says. I pray for everyone to understand this at some point before they die.

Even from an early age, I had my doubts, I had my questions. *"Was this Jesus a real person?"* *"What did he really look like during his day?"* Pics depicted Jesus as being male, Caucasian, with long brown hair and a beard. But given where the Bible took place, I imagined him with darker skin, looking like a typical Middle-Eastern man, possibly with long hair, a beard. *"If he was real, like Christians say he was/is, would he have really cared if you believed in him?"* The older I got, the more I decided that I wasn't going to just blindly follow her line of reasoning that I should believe in Jesus, or even accept him as my so called "lord and saviour".

I've heard a lot of people make the point about him having blue eyes, which is exceedingly rare in that part of the world, so maybe his audiences were drawn to those? Who the fuck knows? People are idiots. But I've heard it said that he was simply a popular prophet who was chosen to represent the new religion that the Romans had decided to exploit in order to control the population of Judea.

So how could he become such an influential figure if he only had a handful of followers who tagged along? By being kind and understanding? I doubt it.

@@SpaceCattttt Judaism was very different back then. There were huge conflicts between the temple hierarchy who were allied with the Romans and took hard cash for every prayer and healing ritual they performed and the poorer masses. The whole money lender in the temple bit. The diaspora was very well established, too, and there were conflicts there, too. Guru got popular, spread through the diaspora, Paul gets the gentiles in. The group with the closest connection to the historical Jesus got wiped out in the revolt of 70 I think it was. Lots of changes on a relatively short time. That there are a lot of influences from all kind of other cults isn't in doubt. But the best way to model the progression is by starting with a real human who had other ideas attached after his death. That simply offers the best basis for a historical interpretation. And btw, Arabs would be extremely ahistorical in this context. And if you mean Islam didn't pick up Jesus later... In Islam Jesus is a prophet who is supposed to return later to fight the antichrist. Just not the main prophet.

@Nick Nack Nick, it's clearly spelled out in the Holy Bible. Jesus' whole life is explained in the New Testament. These stupid liberals and atheists have taken God out of our schools and towns, so most people are ignorant of The Bible. We have been misled about the importance of knowing Jesus. Christians have an obligation to tell the ignorant what their soul is up against for eternity. Your soul lives forever, in Heaven or Hell. God gives you the free will to make your own choice. It is up to you to educate yourself on why you were created and put on this beautiful earth. You didn't just evolve. God created you and loves you and wants your soul to be with Him in Heaven for eternity. You hold the ball on your soul's fate.

I hope you will open your heart to Jesus. He is the only one who can save your soul from Hell. This is God's Word, whether you believe it or not. Once you die, it is too late to get to Heaven. Eternity is a long, long, long time to suffer. God Bless you, Nick. I hope you will seek Jesus.

I saw a news story about a family dog who was bitten by a rattle snake while defending the family baby from that snake. They were able to get the dog to the vet in time and it recovered. Everyone was thanking God for protecting the child, but I was thinking about how this even came about. The snake enters the back yard while hunting for food. The snake had no ill intentions, and had no idea that people were in this area. God sees this, realizes the child is in danger and takes control of the dog to kill the snake. But if God's intention is to protect the child, then it would be better to take control of the snake and prevent it ever entering the yard. This way no one is placed in danger, the dog avoids getting a painful, life threatening injury, the family saves the money it had to spend on treating the dog's snake bite, and the snake survives. But of course, none of the people would have known that God had saved the family. If God had anything to do with this, he'd be like the guy who sets a house on fire to rescue the family. This story doesn't make God out to be a hero at all. In fact, he killed a snake, hurt a dog, and cost the family several hundred dollars.

Hello. I love you. It’s you and Aron that set my brain back on track. I grew up in a religious home. Crazy parents. Lots of beatings. Didn’t much help me. As a child, my atheism actually began from my RAGE at Jesus and god for not caring enough about the cavemen and the animals to save them from eternal torture..... or to allow them all into heaven. Now, I’m functionally autistic, in case that’s not a normal line of thinking. I was mad because my mom called me retarded when I informed her I didn’t like the idea of watching my family and friends burn in Hell forever, even if that means I would go to heaven. That’s not heaven. And if there’s a hell, there can never be a heaven for me.... so I didn’t want to go. ....AND... my parents so kindly referred to me as “stupid child.” For YEARS AND YEARS as a result. And then I found others like myself. Though a whole lot less “WEIRD” than me, you two brilliant humans taught me I was NOT alone anymore AND there ARE OTHERS OUT THERE that think along the same lines. And to think. I found a family and role models in you and Aron both. And I never ever ever looked up to anyone. EVER. . You’re the first person I found. I accidentally clicked on you. Because curiosity. And I laughed till I cried. (Christianity made me talk like an idiot). And now: I’ve waited a bunch of your content, and. I’m not scared anymore! I can speak up and confidently fight back rather than let others torture the weaker with religious stupidity. And now, others are starting to ACTUALLY gravitate to my beliefs and the little turd birds can fall and panic in their little godly corners. And even my husband started VOLUNTARILY watching the videos that helped me become ok with being a loving patient, kind, atheist that loves people . Which is hecking awesome considering I used to be a judgmental confused pile of human shite, who was terrified of everyone and everything. So yea. Before I get all mushy. I wanted to say thank you. You’ve helped me understand the insanity I was unable to process on my own. You are responsible for more good in my life than religion ever could have. You allowed me to use humor to laugh at the insanity and feel less pained by the years I lost (Adventist - soviet, and wayyyyyyy strict on the Bible.) you showed me I can live a good life without god. With just the time I have and the person I am. That atheism isn’t all drug addicted violent hateful nazi evil hearted Satan-loving , dancing around cauldrons and summoning demons to kill Christians. Sounds stupid, but I don’t know how else to explain this. And what else would I know but what I’ve been taught for years and years. So I must say, Thanks for doing what you do. You give terrified kids and confused pained hearts, a chance at brotherhood, peace, understanding, connection, and...well.... hope... Though it’s not quite enough, I don’t think any words could accurately convey the impact you and your work has had on my life. But at the least, I can leave with a genuine thank you. And I hope this brings a smile to your face, and reassures you that both you (as a person) as well as your efforts mean something to far more people than you could ever know. You matter. So peace and love your way, to you and yours, always and all ways; AJ

The problem that non-believers cannot counter is faith. No matter the arguments posed against God or Jesus, or any other deity or messenger, once a person falls back on personal faith, the debate is effectively over. Faith may be defined as belief without evidence, or even the need for evidence. Christianity even teaches that faith itself is a virtue. Once that mindset is met, you may resort to mockery but there can be no rational argument with that position.

Seth, for all the talking about god and Jesus, it still amounts to people talking about things that are not in evidence and DO NOT CURRENTLY EVINCE THEMSELVES. My attitude is simple, until either of these characters can be bothered to actually SHOW THEMSELVES, then all the believers are doing is indulging in impotent hand-waving. And I have no time for that.

Imagine if you will a person like Chris Angel Mind Freak... appearing before these simple people...and performing his tricks floating in the air , etc.... how many of those people would consider him a God? How do we know if Jesus was not a magician using his skills to impress how powerful God was? not for profit but to push his point of view? I see the local bible churches are now saying Jesus is God.... when did that happen? when did he get promoted ? in people's minds?...

It's when people claim they had an encounter with Jesus, you always wonder how they knew it was him. I mean, a glowing thing appears and you right off can make an ID? Did he have a name tag? And what language did he speak: aramaic, hebrew, english? After that their story falls apart.

Linguistically, it refers to defence: "constituting a formal defence or justification of a theory or doctrine [...] from French apologétique or late Latin apologeticus, from Greek apologētikos, from apologeisthei ‘speak in one's own defence’". Similar to how "Satan" refers to "adversary".
