- 78 Questions for Christians
Hemant Mehta (www.friendlyath..., / hemant )
Is Anne Frank burning in hell? How about Mahatma Gandhi? Is Fred Phelps in Heaven since he believed in the divinity of Jesus?
Should a killer who genuinely repents at the end of his life go to Heaven?
Should a kind-hearted atheist go to Hell for all eternity?
Do kind-hearted religious people who just aren't Christian also deserve to burn?
Would you be happy in heaven if someone you loved was in Hell?
If your child were dying, and I hope that never happens, would just pray for them or would you take them to a doctor? And if you'd do both, which one do you think has more of an impact?
Whose prayers does God answer? And if it's ultimately His Will, why bother praying?
If you have cancer, what would help you more: Certain drugs, or prayer?
If you had an amputated limb, would prayer ever bring it back?
If you have an exam coming up, what would contribute more to a higher score: Prayer or more studying?
If you prayed for me over UA-cam right now, do you think I would know it?
What matters to God more: The quantity of people praying or the quality of their prayers? If quantity matters, shouldn't the most popular team always win the Super Bowl? If quality matters, why do people you love sometimes die no matter what you do?
Is it possible that your prayers have no supernatural effect and only serve to make you feel better?
Would you ever admit it if that were true?
Is there anything in your life that makes you doubt God's existence?
How would your life change if you had serious doubts about God's existence?
Was Jesus white?
Why does God seem more likely to answer the prayers of a talented athlete than a starving child overseas?
Why does God Seem to hate Africa?
If a group of Africans swooped in to your community with the intention of converting you and your neighbors to their tribal faith, what would your reaction be?
Does God speak to you?
If God spoke to you and told you to kill someone, would you do it?
Is God always watching you? How about when you're on the toilet?
How do you respond when someone who's not a Christian tells you about their religious faith? Do you listen and consider what they have to say or do you just ignore them because they don't believe what you believe?
What do you make of Muslims who think the Koran is the true holy book? Are they wrong? Have you read the Koran? Why do you dismiss them so easily?
Is homosexuality itself a sin?
Should gays and lesbians have the right to get married?
Why would God make people gay and then punish them for being gay?
If God's already sending gay people to hell, why do you feel the need to persecute them here on Earth?
Why does God playing hide and seek with all of humanity?
Do you believe Jesus is coming back to Earth during your lifetime?
If you do, what do you say to the many generations of people who have been saying that for centuries?
Why is the story of Jesus' birth and life so similar to that of mythological beings well before his time? (listverse.com/2...)
Is it possible that religion may have less to do with what's true and more to do with the circumstances of where you were born?

Here's one: Did Adam and Eve have belly buttons? I mean, they didn't need them...
lol so true
*Mindblown* when I was religous I thought adam and eve were the first humans that randomly popped out of the sky cuz of god... now I realize as an atheist how stupid I was...
STRAIGHTUPSTEAM I did, too. As a child I had no chance to resist that kind of indoctrination. Fortunately as I grew older I started to think by myself instead of blindly following illogical claims.
They do in all their portraits.
And did Adam have nipples??
If Satan punishes people who are bad, doesn’t that make him good?
Jupiter lol, seriously? satan doesn't own the power to punish people. He only leads them into temptation.
No Satan is way beyond bad heck no he doesn't just punish the people that are bad ! If he gets the chance to he would choose to end your life it doesn't matter what good deeds you do in this situation I mean yes be a good person . But what really matters is were Jesus is in your life right now .
Michelle Oregel Thank you for that response. It made me think about what may meet me after my death. But aside from that, have a legitimate question for you. (I’m not trying to start a debate, I’m just curious about the belief).
My question is: How can people who are fully, wholeheartedly
Good people-who DON’T believe in God or Jesus deserve Infinite suffering? How can that be just?
Maybe I just don’t understand fully, or there’s something I don’t know about the faith. But thank you for this interaction-you’ve got me thinking about believing.
Jupiter Glory to God ! You see God works in many ways and, as his children it's our job to help save souls from Satan . Now as for your question you see in the book of genius (looking In The holy Bible ) we can see that in the beginning God created Adam from dust, it can be hard for someone to believe a story like this but there's just so much evidence that we have to believe! Then seeing that Adam needed a helper so from his rib God created Eve they were the first people to come to live . They lived a perfect life . No sickness , no problems a perfect life they were in charge of naming animals that God soon created and even animals like lions where friendly ! Adam an eve were allowed to eat any fruit from any tree EXCEPT the there of knowledge of good and evil . But Satan in a form of a snake came to temp eve he told her the only reason that God doesn't want you to eat from here is because God doesn't want you to have as much knowledge and wisdom as him , eve fell for it and took a bite later giving Adam a bite to . They both disobeyed God . And suddenly sin was in there minds . God had to banish. Then from the land and and there punishment s were :Adam: you will have to surch and find your own food eve: there would now be pain during labor. Satan as the serpent : would have to slither on his stomach , think about that snakes could have had hands or wings or something !!! Also for Satan as the snake Eve's first born some. Will smash his head by stepping on him so now that we are sinners we allow so many bad things to happen but with God's forgiveness and accepting his will he helps us and those good people for example maybe an atheist who is a really good person bad things could and will happen for the hate of god that they have . They can't say they love others and not love God for God created all people for example that Steven hawkens guy he died saying horrible things to God at one point when he was just sick he was given the chance to repent but he didn't he was fooling to many people I think God knowing that we would never repent let his life end . Btw don't be shy to ask me questions it's a good thing that your interested in learning more ! You'll be in my prayers . Have a nice day !!!!!
Michelle Oregel Thank you for your response. And thank you for keeping me in your prayers. Again, I don’t wish to start a massive debate, that’s not my business here. However, I’m still a little skeptical. You said there was ‘so much proof’ of the story of Genesis. And I’m curious, How does anyone know for certain that everything in the Bible is 100% correct and truly happened? Is there a way to truly know for sure? Could the holy books of Islam be proven too? It must be similar to them as it is to Christians, right?
Honestly, I’m interested in if this stuff can be proven, that would be amazing to know, for certain. But, shouldn’t there be fossil evidence of the Garden Of Eden? Or fossil evidence of the Great Flood. I feel unsure. Again, thank you.
EDIT : just a side note, most Atheists or Agnostics don’t HATE God, but are just unsure of his existence. But it’s nice we’re having this talk, perhaps I will get to understand Christianity a little better.
P.s. I really hope I don’t come across as the stereotype of “I know everything and I’m smarter than you” because I don’t mean it to be like that. Thank you, once again.
When a Christian says "God works in mysterious ways" in response to a question, it actually means "Stop asking hard questions".
Nullnerd
-muster me "A HARD QUESTION" ....go ahead?
just one will do!
😂
@@theheraldofchrist104 did a prayer ever helped I prayed for a A in final exam but got
a c minus sooooo
@@theheraldofchrist104 A hard question? How about this one: Why did God try to kill Moses? (Exodus 4:24)
Staffan Lindsgård
Hello I may not be the guy who you asked the question to but I have the answer
Read Exodus 4:25-26
Then Genesis 17:14
If you don’t want to read it then I’ll explain it Moses didn’t do something that God told him to do and the penalty is death.
@@GodFirstGamesSecond It doesn't really answer the question though. The genesis verse says that the uncircumcised child shall be cut off, not that the father shall be killed. There is also the big glaring plothole of assigning an important task to someone, only to try kill that person before the task is even begun.
When people see me and think that I'm lazy, I just say I work in mysterious ways
Chose 1:
RETAR.-___,
*AUTIM:*
@@leanhanleleanah6929 haha bro. U act like a pussy clown
So-called lazy people are actually very smart in many circumstances, just because they subconsciously don't like dealing with trivial matters like with whatever could be going on. This is why smarter people often don't get as good of grades in school--they don't work hard for stupid things.
😂😂😂
Lol. I don’t say “God works in mysterious ways” because it’s obvious. He’s in a different realm. So of course he’s different
Christians answers to all of these questions: "God works in mysterious ways"
+Thomas Scott Lmao tell me about it, that's their answer to everything.
+Thomas Scott
Not necessarily. Only Christians who don't have the drive to actually give you proof. Or Christians who want to say something but don't know how to reply.
+Thomas Scott'
Nope, I answered each and every one of his questions in a different way except for when I was saying yes or no that was pretty common. It's make me feel like he is the stupid one after answering all 78 questions.

It's just a comment.
A Noob Plays Games Reality is a bitch, huh?
I remember being 7 or 8 years old at my Southern Baptist Christian Aunt's house. She was sort of forcing me to do a "Bible lesson", and out of the blue, I just asked, "Well, if a baby dies, does God send it to hell? 'Cause babies don't believe in God yet, so they aren't Christians, but God doesn't send them to hell, does he?"
She was speechless and avoided answering my question no matter how often I asked.
Christianity teaches that nobody goes to hell if they don't know Jesus or God. So all babies and children that haven't grown up to the age to be able to make a choice for themselves to accept or reject God and Jesus all go to heaven. Hell is basically having no relationship with God. Hope this answers you're question :)
+Dimi M every kid that hasn't made the decision yet goes to heaven you know if you don't believe in God or not
yes they would go to heaven for all the little children come to him
all kids go to heaven
does GOD have to change their diapers forever... ?
You guys know who I believe in?
In me and my choices.
I believe in the fsm. He's one and the only.
Ramen.
^ X,D
You believe in the Cookie Monster.
I'm not so proud of most of my choices, but because of those choices, and the results, I can understand that I know sin, because sin first knew me, and the Bible makes more sense. Sin is like a magnet, the more you indulge the harder it is to break away, until you can no longer hear God's whisper inside your soul, saying, "Come to me, all ye who are weary, and heavy laden, and I will give you rest! Matthew 11:29 "Take My yoke upon you and learn from Me; for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls." Jesus did not come to save the flesh from dying, but the soul from eternal damnation. Contrary to what some churches may preach, accepting Christ has proven most costly to the flesh, but most rewarding to the soul!
I got a good question. "Do lawyers go to hell for defending a criminal in court who obviously sinned?"
Sánchez Machado PERIODT amen
@Shai Girl Why don't you answer it yourself?
@Shai Girl yeah waste your time on a book
No. The only thing that will take you away from god (and heaven) is not believing that he is god and not asking him to forgive you of your sin. That’s it. So, if that lawyer didn’t do that, then he will go to hell, but things you do don’t determine where you go when you die.
@@tuskiyugiro6456 the Bible isn’t wasting your time.
Doctor Saves a Patient
They thank God instead of him.
Wtf?!?
***** America*
In europe like 1 out of 12 is christian
Stupidity cannot be tamed.
First of all they should thank the doctor too, but God helped that doctor (weather he is christian or not) help that person. So of course that God!
Natalie Reyes This is, again, subjective. According to us Atheists, there is no God. The Doctor alone is responsible.
This was the very first video that I saw that made me challenge my beliefs that 8 years of Christian elementary school had taught me, and started my journey to becoming a skeptic. Thank you so much for this video.
Do indigenous people who live isolated and have never been exposed to christianity go to hell?
God will reveal himself to those that seek with their whole heart
Seek what? Why would someone who has never been in any way exposed to this religion seek something they literally do not even know they don't know about?
Seek God. These people might not end up knowing what they are looking for but when they search for truth based on what they know and can observe in their surroundings I believe God will lead them to Him. We know a God exists deep down in our conscious, hope that answers your questions. Plus a lot Christian organizations and churches send out missionaries so to these indigenous people so that they can hear the good news!
TheDapperSwindler A great resource you can use to find answers to questions. www.gotquestions.org/never-heard.html
Can you provide an example of a people who came to believe this god exists and became Christians without any influence from missionaries or any such exposure to Christianity through human activity?
Joshua said that God is jealous yet Christians consider jealousy as a sin, why?
The type of jealousy used here would be likened to a wife or husband having an affair and their spouse becoming upset.
Jealousy and envy.
Because the jealousy is different
God’s jealousy: people when they worship idols
Our jealousy: his car is better than mine
It's not the real God but the crazy Demiurgic poser
@@Batz-xk3nt So really, there's a double standard going on here.
Religion is based on fear. Many religious people only "pray" because they fear god's punishments. Someone has to tell him thats not real love and hes really abusive.
If god didnt have the so called punishmnts and hell people wouldnt give a shit about him. Fear is stronger than love.
Religion is based on creation, not fear.
Both of you are partly right, religion was made to explain what couldn't be explained at the time. Through these stories and messages they created standards to live by and stories to believe in. You were meant to fear God and you were also meant to believe in God's creation.
+TACO I agree Marty.
+Okey so says the indoctrinated
+TACO "meant"...? doesn't make it true
79. should a rapist be allowed to go to heaven. this question was already anwsered, and most christians just said 'only if he truly repents, then yes'. havent christians ever thought maybe he would only truly 'repent', not because he feels bad, but because hes afraid of going to hell?
And isn't that the point of religion? *tip*
Jadden Norman The point of him repenting only to go to heaven is that he has not really changed. At all. There would now be a rapist in heaven, with an eternity of time to kill.
Mikhela Kurzhal or rape.
Mikhela Kurzhal seriously, though, I understand and agree.
oh and the worst response ive seen is 'if he accepts jesus christ as his saviour'. so technically he doesnt have to repent as long as he believes in god/jesus.
I don't care if I burn in hell. YOLO right?
Atleast i cant live my life in fear that i will do something god doesent like. I do it everyday without even noticing...
Before I got on anti-depressants I literally felt, like, nothing emotionally, nothing was exciting, surprising, scary, motivational, etc. I would walk alone late at night not giving two shits if I was assaulted or anything. When driving I thought, "What if got in an accident? As long as I die and don't suffer or end up maimed then it's meh." Then I would think back to my Christian days and think about hell and all that. Thinking about hell actually got me excited, like, holy shit, if I die and wake up in a judgement room or in the flames of hell, I'm gonna be like damn, I didn't think the universe actually worked this way, magic is real after all. Like what a mind boggler that would be. I can't believe there actually is life after death! I thought why would that be bad? Supposedly I got all eternity to think about this now. It might suck at first but shit I'm still alive, no? After a few years i'd probably even forget I was made of flames and start admiring all the demons and shit. In my depressed thinking I was seeing the world so bland and mundane, ruled by laws and expectations. But thinking about there actually being a god and a heaven and a hell actually being true, I was like a stoner just with *mind blown*. Yeah this was probably not a smart thing to post on youtube comments. Oh well.
+theblackbull55 I obey God out of respect and love
i prefer to burn in hell because i am smart.
instead to live in heaven because i am stupid .
You call us stupid for having our beliefs, as you do with yours. You have your rights to believe what you want, and I have my rights to believe what I want. People will believe what you don't believe, deal with it.
Thank you for challenging my faith! I look forward to wrestling with some of the tough questions you raised :)
Can you give us some of the answers?
D H sure 30 and 40 are both no 41 is yes 42 is no
DarkchocolateDX okay at least you seem to be reasonable, some Christians I’ve talked to literally have no common sense like ahaha
D H Lol glad we could find some common ground
@@DarkchocolateDX are you luke warm ?
" if you had cancer what would help you, drugs or a prayer " *mountain dew and some weed*
MilkJUG The simmer don’t forget the Doritos and baby blenders
Preach it brother
As an Atheist, I must partly disagree since neither drugs nor prayers work well...
lllllllllllllllllmmmmmmmaaaaaaaaaoooooo
@@fydeless4812 Prayers surely don't work at all and drugs are supposed to cure not harm or shorten life more. Most doctors are ignorant or slave of the pharmaceutical companies.
If you use "who created us then?" As a reason as god being real then here is a question for you. Who created god?
What does blue smell like? That's the league of the question you just asked and I hope that that makes sense.
We created God
God didn't create us
Pizza The One you deserve a cookie *gives cookie*
Pizza The One true
I hate it when people ask that stupid question. Look, if someone created God, then THAT being would God. God has no creator because he is THE creator.
The easiest Christian way to answer all of these question with only 5 words. I don't know therefore god.
So true
God is mysterious-therefore God.
Or "you should never question God bla bla bla".
Beautifully synopsized.
Your just a typical atheist who doeant understand religon
79. People who actually believe in the creation story, I have a question for you.
Who wrote the story of Adam and Eve? Adam, Eve or God? Considering they were the only people around back then to write the story..... Oh and also pencils, papers, ink pens and other things like that weren't invented yet... Oh and how can you prove that the story is accurate because to this day scientists and historians haven't found any evidence of the garden of Eden being an actual place...
I'd like an answer please.
Elio Castani nope
Elio Castani so as a Christian and a former Jewish person we have theologians debating who specifically wrote this but most think Moses wrote most of the first 5 books inspired by what God told him to write.
To add to the above comment, papyrus scrolls and the use of tanning skins as writing surfaces had already been invented in Moses' time.
According to Christians holy men filled with the holy spirit wrote the bible through the guidance of the holy spirit way after the existence of Adam and Eve. I believe in the holy spirit as ive been filled at church, but idk if i would label myself a Christian because some things dont add up in the bible. I believe in Science as well and the human race coming from 2 people alone without any type of evolution/genetic mutation is genetically impossible
Moses,
I have a friend who is Christian and were both pretty close but if he found out that I was a atheist our friendship would be over in seconds
Tyler Keck Yes! Same!. Well I'm atheist I guess. Well, my friend and I go to this church on Wednesday (My mom makes me), and she believes in a god.. but I don't. So when she talks about god, I get annoyed and I'm ready to say "God isn't real!" But, I don't want to ruin our relationship as friends...;(
I'm a Christian and don't care my friends are atheist but will that could be because i Dont give a fuck about any thing
Then he isn't a friend. Any who would break a friendship just because of fiction is not worthy of having friends to begin with.
@Philip Schilthuis
a friend helps you move, a good friend helps you move a body
Tyler Keck same here but all my friends respect my atheism and vice versa .
This really stumped my mom who was trying to figure out why I'm Atheist
then youre mom is kinda dumb
***** me too, I axtually did (with another channel). Im surprised how he seems to find his questions genius questions lol
God is real!!!!!!You A Bitch
Hey!HEYY! Plz be nice
+Wimsem Where are the answers exactly? I would love to read em
All these hate comments by christians and not a single one answering all these questions. lol.
harshil sangal Maybe it's because these are questions FOR Christians, not TO. Learn to read and increase that AR level.
Yuki Spero "Questions for" is the right way to say it and if you had listened to his questions, you would know that they are supposed to be answered by christians.
Y8u should come to cornerstone church
harshil sangal I can answer all of them. I'll do it in my day off
harshil sangal I should make a video called 80 questions for atheist and i gurantee most stheist wouldnt answer
Im a religious person and I like how he doesn't challenge our faith in a rude manner type of way but straight up nicely. And I'll admit, he does have some straight up good questions that I found difficult answering
Question: If someone knocked on your door and said he's Jesus, or Son of God, and implored that you follow him to be saved, would you believe him?
Not likely, right? You'd most likely discard him as crazy.
Isn't that basically what he did in the story of the Bible, preaching and being dismissed?
Oh no! He knocked on my door last week, and I gave him all my money.
Dave Catleugh i let him in and he gave my girlfriend the 'holy ghost' what ever that meant
josh sosa I bet he sprayed the holy ecto plasm all over her face.
If he did a miracles like Jesus , yes i will believe him.
I'm so happy I am watching the fall of religion in my lifetime. This in itself is evolution .
Me too
It's like watching a movie, and we all know the good guys win at the end of a movie.
It's too early to celebrate, my friend. Asia, Africa, South America and east Europe still exists.
***** Basically, the poor countries and the US.
*****
If you're from US, you really don't know your country very well. Most of east europe countries don't have a half of the religion fanatism of the US.
Many of the questions in the vid are questions I finally asked myself when I was a Christian. Questions similar to; are Gandhi and Anne Frank burning in hell? And; should an evil person who is about to be executed for his acts get a pass into heaven by simply falling to his knees and begging God for forgiveness? And; how can I be expected to believe in a specific god when the only information I am getting about this god is being given to me by ordinary people who, in turn, received their information from other ordinary people?
Anne Frank. Probably not.
Gandhi? Hopefully, since Millions eventually died to this "peaceful" methods.
Hi Katie, I'm curious.
If I might ask how old are you and how long did you go to church?
GODSWORDTANDP I am 28 and went to church until I was about 20. My grandfather was a Methodist minister.
Katie Anderson Was it around that age that you started doubting religion? That was the age for me and the same for a lot of my friends who were raised catholic/christian etc... It's strange if that is the case.
Hi Katie,
I wanted to follow-up on the question that I asked you. You stated “how can I be expected to believe in a specific god when the only information I am getting about this god is being given to me by ordinary people who, in turn, received their information from other ordinary people? “
Actually GOD did chose the “foolishness” of preaching of His exact word to save those that are lost. This means that GOD decided to use people to spread the message, but He also told us to test what we hear. Did you ever read your Bible, did you ever talk to GOD yourself to get an answer to your questions? Did you study GOD’s word?
I once had a Christian tell me “If the world had religion, then we would have a peaceful world with no hate or violence.” I then proceeded to explain to him that there’s only 7% of people in the world who don’t have religion, yet we still have all the things he said we wouldn’t have. I sometimes... I just... I... I can’t... I... *_I just don’t understand Christian logic sometimes. I don’t understand any religion’s logic for that matter._*
Exactly. God at first didn’t originally want it to be a religion. True Christianity isn’t a religion. It’s the way you live your life. You love and care for people. And you thank God for all the things that he has given you. And if you want too, You go to church to show him at least a little respect.
In fact that’s most likely why our world is so fucked up. Because instead of doing something that’s right. They do it for a reward...
Hello, I hope to find you well. I don't want to sound like a vegetarian ("Hi, I'm soandso and I'm a vegetarian") but first off I am a Christian, a youth pastor as a matter of fact. I get your woe over a statement like this. The fact is, we all believe that "the world would be a better place if everyone thought the way I do." To some extent we all think this, even atheists. The thing is that it's not that way and it will never be. Studies show that you can't put any two people together without some kind of conflict happening. The important thing is considering what to do knowing we all think, act, and react differently. God bless!
donovan force I read a quote somewhere that sums this up quite well “Even if there were only two people on Earth, someone would want someone else dead.”
The Fear Of Hell And Hope For Heaven Forces People To Be Good.
Religon Is Very Important.
Kevin Y
Oh that’s what we need, to be forced into a fear of being good and not doing it for any reason but for our own benefit.
I think my favorite one is "Why did God have to rape a teenage girl in order to become human?"
I liked the hide and seek one best.
***** "Rape" is a slightly odd way of putting it, but a valid one, he did impregnate a girl without telling her beforehand or obtaining any kind of consent from her.
Thanks, it's nice to see someone who's actually willing to think a point over rather than immediately jumping to defensiveness, it's a rare thing down in the comments.
***** As should we all, if your beliefs are not harming anyone, I have no problem with them, and will respect them, the only time that respect of your beliefs goes is when you use them to justify harm, oppression or other infringements upon a persons rights. It's a common misconception that atheists don't respect religious people, a few don't, but most of us do, the people we don't respect are the [insert naughty word of your choice] who decide that their religion gives them the right to screw up other peoples lives
***** Fair enough, but replace the word "rape" with "impregnate" and the question is still interesting. Why would an all-powerful god have to put an innocent woman through unrequested painful child birth to enter the world?
I would like to see a Christian answer all of these questions or even half of them
+hollow hype Any Christian who understands his beliefs in the slightest could easily answer at least half of them on his own without looking to what someone who studies the religion in depth has to say. Most of these questions start with, this is what I think Christians believe and based on this I'm going to ask a myriad of questions. Their just straw mans.
+Michael Sayad okay then find me him and get him to answer all of these
I'm not gonna answer all of them. Which questions do you think give Christians the biggest problems? For instance, the fact that there are other religions, which verses in the Bible are literal and which ones are allegorical?
+Michael Sayad I advise you to watch the video again and answer them
You didn't watch the video. Did you? lol
Finally, a guy who knows some sh*t! I got stuck in a Lutheran school by my parents, even though I'm an atheist.
He's a fool and doesn't know anything ! He's too " educated " for God..
Sinas Clan Excuse me, but isn't being educated about the immoral Bible a good thing?
+Mark Graham what you mean ? no not necessarily educated , just read it and study it ! The KJV bible only btw
+Sinas Clan I read the Bible when people ask me to prove the immorality, and the Bible is filled with it.
I highly doubt you read it with enthusiasm Mark, you wouldn't be an atheist if you were what Christians called saved.
If we should love our enemies, that means we should love satan, right?
If Satan is the evil one, why are we worshipping God for creating him knowing that he was evil? And why did God flood millions... is Satan really the villain here?
Yes actually, you should love everyone, and no you shouldn't worship Satan he is not God, he wants to be God tho
@@mr.morningstar4127 Well if that's the case then he's doing a good job. According to the bible he only killed 10 people to God's 2.4 million (not including the flood).
@@fatherpoochie2454, You're actually right, he is doing a good job but you can't tell God that he is not doing a good job either...
@@mr.morningstar4127 You might want to read through a bit of what I previously explained in your latest comment.
Hemant just went HAM on this asking all the question Christians can't answer Lol. I feel those same bullshit default answers coming.
1) God has a plan.
2) He works in mysterious ways.
3) We must have faith.

Questions for atheists;
What created the big expansion of the universe?
Why is the earth perfectly sized for the atmosphere if God doesn't exist?
Why is earth perfectly spaced out away from the sun?
Why is earth perfectly sized for gravity to have a perfect pull on us?
Why does does earth have everything perfect for mankind?
That's it guys, tell me your answers.
Peace.
_"What created the big expansion of the universe?"_
I'm intellectually honest to you: I don't know. The thing is, neither do you. Is it a problem for you to acknowledge ignorance?
The other questions can be summarized with two analogies, since they follow the same principle:
- It's like a puddle that asks itself, why it fits so perfectly the hole it is in. In reality, the shape of the hole determines the shape of the puddle
- Why is it, that your mirror image looks exactly like you? In reality, how you look, determines your mirror image.
The same applies to life on earth: It's a reflection of nature resp. certain natural conditions and events.
In a few billion years, our sun will make life on earth perish. Life on earth is some sort of in-between stage during the life time of our sun. Thus, life on earth isn't a goal of the universe as you imply it
TheBastius "I'm intellectually honest to you: I don't know. The thing is, neither do you."
Well at least Christians have a theory on how it happened. I believe that God CREATED the Big Bang.
Gravity remains consistent, a hot cup of coffee left on a counter will get cold, the earth rotates in the same 24 hours, and the speed of light doesn't change -- on earth or in galaxies far from us.
How is it that we can identify laws of nature that never change? Why is the universe so orderly, so reliable?
The greatest scientists have been struck by how strange this is. There is no logical necessity for a universe that obeys rules, let alone one that abides by the rules of mathematics. This astonishment springs from the recognition that the universe doesn't have to behave this way. It is easy to imagine a universe in which conditions change unpredictably from instant to instant, or even a universe in which things pop in and out of existence.
The Earth...its size is perfect. The Earth's size and corresponding gravity holds a thin layer of mostly nitrogen and oxygen gases, only extending about 50 miles above the Earth's surface. If Earth were smaller, an atmosphere would be impossible, like the planet Mercury. If Earth were larger, its atmosphere would contain free hydrogen, like Jupiter. Earth is the only known planet equipped with an atmosphere of the right mixture of gases to sustain plant, animal and human life.
Water...colorless, odorless and without taste, and yet no living thing can survive without it. Plants, animals and human beings consist mostly of water (about two-thirds of the human body is water). You'll see why the characteristics of water are uniquely suited to life:
It has an unusually high boiling point and freezing point. Water allows us to live in an environment of fluctuating temperature changes, while keeping our bodies a steady 98.6 degrees.

TL:DR
Your post can be summarized with "Nature is so mysterious and awe-inspiring, therefore God"
_____________
_"Christians have a theory on how it happened"_
"theory"... It's a hypothesis at best and another term for "i don't know" at worst.
_"Gravity remains consistent,"_
Different composition of a planet, different gravity. In order for gravity to change, the planet has to change, since a planet's gravity is an attribute of the planet. Why should gravity change? Your "God" could intervene in nature at any moment, so it's you that shouldn't talk of 'consistent', because you can't account for consistency in nature with your "God".
_"a hot cup of coffee left on a counter will get cold"_
it deosn't get cold, it aligns its temperature with its surrounding, because it loses its heat. It's what happens when energy resp. the energy input gets lost/stops. It returns to its original state, so to say.
_"the earth rotates in the same 24 hours"_
hasn't been all the time during the life time of the earth. It has rotated already in a 20 hour cycle in its early stages.
_"the speed of light doesn't change"_
Why should it?
_"How is it that we can identify laws of nature that never change?"_
Because we have the mental capabilities/preconditions for doing so? Persons who lack them, can't do this.
_"Why is the universe so orderly, so reliable?"_
Where do you see order? Doesn't it depend on the perspective from which you look at it? I hope you know what filaments are:
www.mpa-garching.mpg.de/galform/press/seqD_063a_half.jpg
_"The greatest scientists have been struck by how strange this is."_
So, you admire nature, therefore "God"?
_"There is no logical necessity for a universe that obeys rules,"_
Nature is no courthouse of (dis-)obedience of laws. The very fact we have these "laws of nature" makes things in nature "obeying" them. Nature by itself has no consciousness so that it could decide "today, i don't wanna do this or that".
_"that abides by the rules of mathematics"_
Nature doesn't follow any rule. Those laws or rules are man-made constructs to desribe nature....they are descriptive.
_"It is easy to imagine a universe in which conditions change unpredictably from instant to instant"_
So you can imagine such a universe? Really? How would it look like? Could life or anything at all exist in such a universe?
_"or even a universe in which things pop in and out of existence."_
That's the universe you believe in if the Bible were true.
Your paragraphs with _"The Earth...its size is perfect. [...] Water...colorless, odorless and without taste, [...]"_ :
You didn't understand my explanation/analogies, did you? Go read them again.
To your last paragraph:
We have animals with a changing body temperature. Your point is what? Other living beings live in different environments/conditions.
Why is it, that you only pick us humans..we are not the only species on earth.
Ever heard of evolution? Different conditions of nature, different attributes that animals have. What seems good for us is bad for other species at the same time and vice versa. Again: your point is what?
TheBastius Let me rephrase everything, because your brain couldn't handle what I meant.
Well at least Christians have a theory on how it happened. I believe that God CREATED the Big Bang.
Gravity remains consistent on Earth, a hot cup of coffee left on a counter will lower it's temperature, the earth rotates in the same 24 hours 363 out of 365 times, and the speed of light doesn't change -- on earth or in galaxies far from us.
How is it that we can identify laws of nature that never change? Why is the universe so reliable?
The greatest scientists have been struck by how strange this is. There is no logical necessity for a universe that obeys rules that one planet follows, and another planet follows those same rules, let alone one that abides by the rules of mathematics. This astonishment springs from the recognition that the universe doesn't have to behave this way. You can imagine a universe in which conditions change unpredictably from instant to instant, or even a universe in which things pop in and out of existence.

Only with assuming there is no "God" you can account for the uniformity of nature and simple read off from the nature so that you can form "laws".

My favorite question is how many Christians does it take to figure out the world is not flat.
One, but the rest of them wouldn't call him a real Christian
I am an atheist.
Considering that the world was known to be round LONG before Christianity existed....
***** true studies show that herbal remedies where discovered long ago as well and the people that practiced herbal remedies where killed by Christians. Pagan religions where first from what I have studied to my knowledge.
How many atheists does it take to misinterpret the bible and ask a stupid question? One. The answer is found in the comment i am replying to. The bible doesn't teach that the Earth is flat. There's a verse in the bible that says something about the four CORNERS of the Earth, four CORNERS of the Earth meaning directions (As in NORTH, EAST, SOUTH, WEST.) There's verses in the bible that clearly state that the Earth is a spherical shape. We have verses in the bible that tells us that the Earth is of a spherical shape and we have a bible verse that LOOKS as if it is telling us that the Earth is flat, does this mean the bible contradicts itself? No. This means the bible is talking about N, E, S, W when it refers to the four "corners" of the Earth.
If God is real how come he didn't tell anyone on north or South America?
Coz no one in North or South America bothers to pray.
THE LAMP, he told the disciples to spread the word he had to return to heaven.
Aron 2022 - Why rely on a method that can take years, even centuries, when in the meantime so many would die without believing and thus condemn themselves to hell, according to the religion? Also why use a method which is completely identical to the way other religions spread, which would cause confusion as to whether or not Christianity is anymore true than the rest?
I didn't ask which method was used, I asked _why_ it was used.
*"So they wouldn’t be condemned to the pit of fire because they didn’t know of jesus back then, so they’d go to, if they were a good person, to the part without torment."*
Then why spread the religion at all, and risk people going to hell once they learned about the faith and possibly rejected it, perhaps due to a lack of evidence?
You didn't answer my second question as well... why use a method which is completely identical to the way other religions spread, which would cause confusion as to whether or not Christianity is anymore true than the rest?
If a god wants people to know it exists, why arrange it so that they're better off _not_ knowing, in case they reject it due to it being faith-based, thus condemning themselves to hell? That seems absurd.
*"Also how am I to know why god did anything? The bible even says we can’t know god."*
If you concede you don't understand this god's reasoning, then you also concede any claim to it being moral or benevolent, as by your own admission you don't know why it's doing the things that it does. You also give an empty answer that says you should probably question this more than you currently are.
one of my questions to christians: if we no longer have a body how can we endure eternal pain and suffering in "hell" when we no longer have nerves to sense pain or a brain?... what even... this is a serious question if a christian has a logical answer please reply :)
+Cristal Rose
Many religions think that hell is a place of eternal pain of suffering. That contradicts (I don't remember where in the bible) "God is love" . If God is love, would he take a human and put it in a place of eternal fiery torment? Hell isn't a place of fiery torment. In the bible (still don't remember where) it says that it is a grave for the dead. It's simply a grave for when you die. Jesus was expecting to go to hell after he died. 2 very good people (don't remember the names) went to hell in the bible.
thank you, btw you seem very in touch with you religion and i applaud you for that.

On judgement day, Our mortal bodies will be changed/transformed into immortal.. We will have bodies that will never dies.. Thus, we can spend eternity in heaven or hell..
1Cor.15:50-54 "What I am saying, dear brothers and sisters, is that our physical bodies cannot inherit the Kingdom of God. These dying bodies cannot inherit what will last forever. But let me reveal to you a wonderful secret. We will not all die, but we will all be transformed! It will happen in a moment, in the blink of an eye, when the last trumpet is blown. For when the trumpet sounds, those who have died will be raised to live forever. And we who are living will also be transformed. For our dying bodies must be transformed into bodies that will never die; our mortal bodies must be transformed into immortal bodies. Then, when our dying bodies have been transformed into bodies that will never die, this Scripture will be fulfilled: "Death is swallowed up in victory...""
spiritual pain is much stronger than physical pain.

As a Christian, I really enjoyed watching this video, it gave me a lot of interesting things to think about, and I really enjoy philosophy! It was also very relaxed and nonconfrontational, which can be difficult to find in discussions about religion. I've actually had a lot of these questions myself, some of which I found answers to, and some of which I didn't, but either way, these are good questions and I think finding the answers to them is a good thing for Christians to do.

Speaking as a former atheist I genuinely did not slip up.. had an answer to everyone of these.. it would take hours to write (if any of you guys actually want me too I will) so I’ll just mention it sounds like you have a lot of pent up bitterness towards Christianity that’s keeping you from having an open mind. You need to see both sides of the coin, and make a genuine effort to gain understanding from like minded people that happen to be Christian. Believe me you are not unique in the sense that you “see what us Christian’s can’t”.. many Christian’s have been in your exact shoes and asked those exact questions and still came to know Christ. You have to want it, as crazy as
It sounds.

Grotto Box I have to agree with you here. I've been an atheist for about 14 years, and some of these questions I've never thought of before. My favourite is number 60 "If you could go back in time, would you save Jesus from being nailed to the cross?"

@@user-dm1xz5yq8f ok start debunking.
@TangerineTangerine I’ll do it tomorrow, it’s late where I am
I can't believe that as an atheist, I never thought of "If you could go back in time and save someone from being killed, would you save Jesus?"
Where it anyone else,a Christian would say yes, they would save that person from being murdered, because murder is a sin (or could Jesus have been said to have committed suicide, given that he supposedly knew it was going to happen and did nothing to stop it? I thought suicide was a sin...)
However, would a Christian earnestly say if they went back in time, they'd stop Jesus being nailed to the cross? Their entire religion depends on him dying in agony, then later rising from the dead. Which to me, is only an indicator of how immoral and grotesque the religion is: it's most fundamental teaching requires the torture and murder of a man, and if you were to stop this torture and murder (something that in every other context, the religion teaches is wrong and a sin), you're somehow dooming humanity.
So anyone Christian here want to chime in...would you save Jesus? IF you do or don't, please explain why.
Crazy... Good points, all.
I understand your point, but it is invalid. It was founded out of the rightiousness of God. Once God saw all the evil in the world, he decided to send Jesus, who always knew he would die at the cross, but he knew Christianity was about more than just one life. Christianity was around before Jesus, just not like we currently know it (lazy Christianity). Therefore, a Christian should not save Jesus because he died knowing he would come back, whereas nobody else gets to come back. Its a strange and messed up situation, but thats question is always tricky
No, I wouldn't because of the simple reason he wouldn't want me to just like he didn't want the disciples to he told them in advance what would happen and that it was something that needed to be done so I would be obedient and not try and save him
I would. But I would also slap him at the same time for choosing demon people as Pastors. Why can't he choose Good People to become Pastors and help the poor.
If u asked a pastor any of these I guarantee he will anwser and prove all of these through scripture
Prove something trough scripture is a non-sense, the only way you can prove things is with evidence. However you should try to answer these questions with your critical thought, not by waiting someone who tells you what you want to listen to
Weston pink Scriptures don't "prove" anything other than the fact that people had written them in the past. Your scriptures can have many different versions and interpretations from different other people, what makes your pastor's or your version and interpretation correct when there can be other people who can disagree and give another version and interpretation? Well the fact that people have different versions and interpretations proves that the scriptures you're talking about are unclear.

From exodus 21:20-21 New International Version, source: www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Exodus+21%3A20-21&version=NIV
It says:
"Anyone who beats their male or female slave with a rod must be punished if the slave dies as a direct result, 21 but they are not to be punished if the slave recovers after a day or two, since the slave is their property."
Is it safe to say that "beating your slave is okay unless they can recover after a few days"? If yes, well that's one reason why the bible is not trusted. Is there somehow another interpretation? Is there something left out? Well please tell me if I'm wrong. If you say that having a slave is okay, that would be a difference between you and other people including me.

I kind of think the question of "What would it take to change your mind about God's existence?" is a question that cannot be answered. I don't think anyone can gauge how much evidence that they would need to change their mind about something. As far as I can see, the question can only be answered accurately *after* someone changed their mind and the person can attest to what did it.
Xelger
True. As an atheist, I of course demand hard evidence before I could ever say "Yeah, God exists". However, even if someone showed me video footage of a miracle with a great booming voice from the heavens, I have to admit that still wouldn't be enough.
I'd have to verify if the video has been doctored or if the entire thing were staged. Even if the video passes that step, how do I know that what I'm hearing *is* the Christian God? It could be trans-dimensional beings fucking with us, or aliens with technology so advanced that to our human perspective, it looks miraculous. If they predict future events with perfect accuracy, then I'd raise the possibility of them either outright causing the events or of having time travel capabilities.
So in short, this is me saying that though I am open to the possibility of the Christian god being true...I simply cannot imagine any level of evidence that would suffice to satisfy me. This may sound like an echo of Ken Ham, but just in case someone misunderstands: Ken Ham is closed to any other possibility and will outright dismiss any evidence that is contrary to his beliefs, no matter how strong, whereas I'm saying that I would have to somehow dismiss all other possibilities before saying "Yeah, Christian God".
It'd be very easy for me. Every single person in the whole world would have to have experienced god at the same exact moment in time no matter their location on Earth. This include, of course, me, all my family, and every person in existence. It'd have to be a shared experience everyone had that could not be written off as something else (thus why everyone is required to have experienced it, because there is pretty much nothing that would occur where every person in the entire world would be witnesses without some sort of supernatural cause). It'd have to be clear that it was from a god as well, not some other supernatural cause. And of course this is just for a god in general, not for a specific religion's god.
No, it's guageable, to state the amount of evidence needed to disprove something, but not with religion. It's non-disproveable, fundamentally.
Sang15Mitang I was talking about the other way around. It's not too hard to gauge what it would take to believe the existence of something, but it's very hard to gauge what it would take to believe the nonexistence of something. This video's questions are directed toward Christians, so you have to think like a Christian in order to understand what they are being asked, and to understand the point that I was trying to make.

You didn't specify in your original post which direction you were talking about. It could have been taken in the same way that I took it, or in the way you apparently meant for it to be taken.
If god wanted to "forgive our sins", why didn't he just do it? Why did he torture his son to death?
Himself*
God sent his son down to be cricified. That was to show his love for us. I mean, if the fate of the human race was on your hands and you had to sacrifice your son for everyone, would you do it. If God himself did, he would love us yea, but we wouldnt know how much. And then, also cause Jesus was immortal, he was sent to hell for 3 days where he could then open up the gates of hell so all true christians could live in heaven

Sounds like a really really really stupid plan... Why not just forgive them? Or is he not powerful enough?
+Kudo “The Doomer” Redfox He is powerful. He forgave us through the crucifiction of his son. Rrmember, after noahs flood, the earth still had his history of unforgiving sins till before Jesus came. God did forgive us but since the gates of hell was still locked, everyone went to hell before that.
+Kudo “The Doomer” Redfox Sorry, this may not be what you asked. My mind was also on another place
23. When I was a Christian, the thing that actually made me seriously doubt God was real was that I caught myself jumping through hoops trying to explain Bible verses that didn't make any sense like why Jesus cursed a fig tree for not producing fruit in the winter or why God hardened the Pharroh's (I don't know how to spell this word, and neither does my phone) heart and punish him for it.
Your questions were soaked in sarcasm. You just can't see through God's eyes because you're still in the reality of sin. No one is perfect. The scripture says; "the righteousness of man is as filthy rags with God." Man is a sinner. His works are just no good with God. He honors only the blood of Christ. Minimum requirement for being a Christian: Romans 10:9 If you confess Christ as Lord, and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. *Works will never get a person off of death row.
A kind word turns away wrath, my brother.
ana bella Thanks sister. I'll "try" to remember that.
***** Christianity became the official religion of the Roman empire, and the mythological Gods, (the state gods) were tossed out on their ear. The Roman Government its self, declared that "all" of the New Testament was true. More especially that Jesus was crucified at the hands of Herod and Pilot. They believed that Jesus was God and that he was to be worshiped. If you can give history any credit at all; start with this and "think" about it.
***** You're clutching at non existent straws.
***** Christ Jesus sits at the right hand of the Father in heaven. He will judge the quick and the dead.
I am a Christian and these questions had absolutely amazing thought into them and the under no god question was to me the best
I sure want to see a "true" christian to answer all of these in the comments. But alas...
I did! :) Or tried to at least...
I'm not sure what you mean by 'true' Christian. But I gave my answers to them above.
***** I encourage more christians to do the same! :)
Jake look a the replies that I have given
I did. I'm still a Christian. I dont consider myself moronic at all.
I’m not yet a Christian, but I’m studying to be one. I appreciate your videos-I agree there are many annoying people who evangelize and express the Christian faith in inauthentic ways. It’s always good to question. I got interested in pursuing this direction because of C.S. Lewis’s “Mere Christianity.” Pretty reasonable and well-written book.
In these comments: Pissed off Christians.
In these comments: assumptions. ;)
I don't think you're seein' what I'm seein' there, Jack!
NOBODY CALLS ME JACK, JOCKO!

"Why is God playing hide and seek with all of humanity?"
OMFL XD
I'm so glad that you guys are thinking, and I will admit that many, if not most, Christians don't think nearly as hard as you guys do. I think I have some answers, and I would love to answer every question you posed in the video, but for time and comment space sake, I will attempt to answer the main categories of those questions, and the more major questions. namely, 1) will good meaning people go to hell if they don't know Jesus, 2) which is more powerful, prayer or works, 3)* was Jesus white, 4) how do you handle other people who don't believe the same things you do, and 5) where is God in this terrible world. I do apologize if I leave anything out, and if someone from the atheist voice would like to talk further, I will do my best to accommodate.
1) will good meaning people go to hell if they don't know Jesus?
Romans 3:23 (if I remember correctly) says that everyone has sinned no matter who you are, so even the people who did more good than bad will, unfortunately, go to hell. this is why Christians should be extremely focused on missions, because obviously, nobody wants anyone to go to hell. The only possible way to go to heaven is to be completely righteous for your entire life and never do anything wrong, as God defines it. because of things like what romans 3:23 says, romans 5:1-2 explains what God had to do with his son, Justify Us. That might be a bit misleading, because Jesus doesn't RATIONALISE with god or try to explain why what we did isn't wrong somehow, Jesus instead lived the life we needed to live and then paid our sins by dying. Then he, by his own power, came back from the dead, and by that gave us a new method of going to heaven, believing in him and following him. So, to conclude this question (for now, as i'm sure there are more related questions you have), there only exist two methods of getting into heaven, live a 100% perfect life as according to God's rules, or believing in Christ and in Christ alone and obeying what He tells you to do.
2)Which is more powerful, prayer or works?
James 2:14 through the end of the chapter clearly states that both are necessary, and that it doesn't matter which is more powerful, both are necessary. If my child is dying, of course I would take them to the hospital, it would be completely stupid for me not to. but I would also pray for peace for my family, wisdom for the doctors, etc. Miracles have happened due to science, miracles have happened due to prayer. In fact, every miracle comes from God because science only models what we observe in God's world and relies on consistency in it to predict that if we inject this medicine here, this effect will happen. Prayer can have a two fold purpose, normally it is a way to talk to God and develop a relationship with him. When you have a question or a need, praying can also be an act of faith in that you ask God to meet said need. I have heard countless stories of science saying things like "this child will not survive the night", and then the parents wake up the next morning to "Daddy, I don't feel very good." In conclusion, prayer does not supersede works, works does not supersede prayer. Both are necessary.
3)* Was Jesus white?
The reason I put the asterisk there is because this is a category of question that includes a many seemingly unrelated questions. was jesus white, can God create a boulder so big he can't lift it, would you know if I prayed for you, they all are answered the same way. it doesn't matter. Who cares if Jesus was white or black? we all (hopefully) know that blacks and whites are equal, so what would it change if Jesus was white? What would it change if Jesus was black? The validity of Hollywood? we should know by now that Hollywood is 60% CGI, and the other 40% is all acting. Who cares if God can create such a boulder or not? that is what is known as stupid. Who cares if you know if I pray for you, outside of good feelings? i'm talking to God, not you. I apologize for anything insulting, but it really is true when you think about it.
4)How do you handle other people who don't believe the same things you do?
I analyze what they say, see how much of it is true, and if I feel the door is open to evangelize, I help them to see the flaws in their own logic wherever I find them as respectfully and lovingly as possible, and I attempt to lead them to their own conclusion in right thought, and finally come along side them in friendship and help them as much as possible to change what they need to change and lead them down the correct path. Honestly, if I didn't think Christianity was logical, intelligent, and over all the right choice, I would totally be on your side. And I absolutely respect the opinions of others, even if I believe it is wrong, and where I see incorrect logic, I attempt to show them their ways for what they truly are. There's nothing wrong with being incorrect, but if you do find yourself to be incorrect, don't stay there. be willing to change, and be willing to ask questions and be willing to be incorrect. you're still human, just because one person came to a different conclusion than you doesn't mean they deserve to be shunned.
5)Where is God in this terrible world?
God is actually working wonders in this world, he simply doesn't get the spotlight. Things like the sick child in the hospital I referenced in number 2, believe it or not, happen surprisingly often. the biggest reason I would cite for you asking this question is that bad things happening make for better news. we live in a very negative world, so all you hear about is the bad. Many, many good works are happening, people are just preferring to listen to CNN than to these reports. as proof, my own school recently packed over 100,000 meals in one dedicated day for an organization called Rise Against Hunger to send these meals to a third world country (whose name currently escapes my mind), not only that, but we also in that day passed the 1 million mark for overall meals packed by just my school in total. I promise, if you truly want to hear good reports of what is happening throughout the world, look at some of the works done by missionaries and Christians. The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few, as the Bible puts it.
I hope that helps answer some of your questions. I would love to talk with anyone from Atheist Voice who is interested, and I apologize for anything left out. I do ask however that any replies be constructive in nature and refrain from immature behavior. If you want a response, make it evident that you want an answer by being respectful and intelligent. I can't wait to talk to some of you guys.
epicdragon2104 wait wait wait I'm catholic but don't know jack shit of my religion. The first answer confused me tho. You have to live a 100% righteous life to go to heaven? How? But you say everyone has sinned? And how do you talk to god? Bitch I've been praying but he don't fucking answer!
So God can make ANYTHING happen? So if I pray hard enough will I have super powers?????!?!?!?!
DililyPoof all of us are sinners, because Adam first sinned, and therefore what God wanted originally was ruined, and therefore everyone has the sin seed in them, so they are not holy. He allowed Satan to rebel because he would not force, and he allowed Satan to tempt Eve for the same reason. So, all of us people are sinners, and each are deserving to go to torment. However, through Christ, we can be saved! The Holy Spirit caused Mary to have Jesus, who was sinless because he had the seed of God, and lived the perfect life that we could not live. And then he died for us on the cross, suffered for our sins, was physically resurrected on the 3rd day, and through him we may be saved, which is when he grants us the gift of the holy spirit. We cannot earn salvation, it is a gift that one must choose to take. And with prayer, God says 'Seek first the kingdom(righteousness, God's will), and all you need shall be added unto you. If we are seeking to please God and doing his will, then we will be given what we pray for, if according to his will. Lastly, you claim to be a Catholic, so I urge you out of love to visit this website. www.gotquestions.org/Catholic-questions.html
In it there are many questions regarding Catholic doctrines and Christian beliefs. Hope you do make the choice to get saved and be willing to live a life honorable to God!
Daniel Aispuro being granted 'superpowers' is not part of God's will, however prayer is effective if the one praying is faithful. I urge you to see the scientific facts in the Bible if you are not a believer ~ www.livingwaters.com/witnessingtool/scientificfactsintheBible.shtml ~ and I ask you to search for the truth by reading the Bible and searching, not with the intent to prove it wrong, but with the desire to know what the real truth is. Genesis explains some issues atheists often debate about, such as why God allows suffering, etc. The Gospels as well (Matthew, Mark, Luke, John) are about Jesus's life on earth, and what he taught is found here, as well as in every book after the Gospels. Romans and Galatians focus on the issues of both salvation, sin, and how one who is saved would live after the Holy Spirit has been given to them. God is slow to anger and rich in mercy, so please, seek the truth. Be blessed.
Rich in mercy, huh? So rich in mercy that he so swiftly allowed thousands upon thousands of Jews to be slaughtered by Christians and Catholics, right? So merciful to just have dozens of wars on his name. Such a great God that he allowed the same people that commited injustices and crimes against others to gain full power and control of people. A god that is so merciful that he let thousands and even millions of "heretics" to be burned alive in the name of the Church and then he so willingly send them to hell for not believing in him. I'm sorry, compadre, but I'm not going to have some psycho of a god dictate me how to live MY life. Just have in mind that if we weren't from this time, you people would have had us non believers tortured and killed without question.
Hello, I’m a Christian, but I think the questions you asked in this video are very good questions and would make for a debate, I would like you to come in and speak with one of our speakers because it give both parties have valid points and will be a great discussion
*story time*
When I was 12 I went to Sunday school and the teacher their told us to raise our hands if we were going to get married. I of course didn't raise my hand so he brought me up to the front of the class and told me to say “i will get married in Jesus name"... I didn't say it. He threatened to tell my mom. I said OK.
Chinenyenwa Muoneke So, did he tell your mom? Finish your story.
you Nigerian?
Chinenyenwa Muoneke Damnit you can't just start a story like this and not finish!! I WANNA KNOW WHAT HAPPEN!!!! GGGUUUUUHHHH!!!!
Chinenyenwa Muoneke So.... They were trying to force you to say you would get married, even if you didn't want to get married? What assholes.
Chinenyenwa Muoneke im a Christian and that is literally one of the dumbest things ive ever heard. The teachers i mean
I shared this one on Facebook, but I doubt anyone will try and answer the questions.
I imagine that they'd see it and think "I'm not watching it. This is the Devil's work!!! So sad that he's being used by Satan. I'll pray for him."
***** SOML
Be careful what you wish for.
I always say my pledge as "...one nation under the Constitution" or sometimes "...under freedom/independence." Why? Well, the founding fathers crafted the US under these unalienable rights, most importantly freedom. So, why should I pledge my allegiance to a flag that is under a "god" when I can actually pledge to the flag for the country it stands for?
Alex Smith The Under God part was added in the Fifties!
***** Well, that is something I did not know! Thanks. I like how some "patriots" claim that it has always been a thing, makes me chuckle now.
I live in America but I will never pledge allegence to a flag or government it's no logger the land of the truly free it's only the super wealthy who are free

Thank you Hemant, i have had those very same questions but never could articulate them. I appreciate it :)
Answer for question 1-78: God works in mysterious ways.
You win.
Sunday school taught me it's a "Devine mystery" those responses really pissed me off.
I believe the term is "delirious".
Question 45 is one of my favorites, although I'd pull back on the scope.
If God is ultimately going to judge and punish sinners for their sins, why do we bother persecuting them?
I have one question for all intellectual atheists (so, a very small amount): what evidence against the existence of God can you provide to a Christian that would cause them to challenge their own belief or else lose faith?
People without a belief in Yahwei (the Christian God) are the same as the people who are without the belief in Zeus, Ra and Allah. It's not a matter of having evidence against the existence of something invisible and ethereal, it is (nearly wholly) a community of people who don't find it a convincing account of reality.
Anthony, first of all, the insult in the beginning of your question makes me question your intelect. Second, intelectual people demand proof of existance, not the other way around. Nobody can provide evidence for something not being there, you can not provide evidence against the existance of a invisible spaggethi-monster ruling our galaxy and deciding on everything you dont understand. My point being, nobody can provide evidendence against something that is made up. Would you believe in god if nobody ever told you? Would you be a muslim if raised in a Islamic country? You are protecting your faith with question you probaly use to disprove other religions. Can you provide evidence against Allah being the only god? Or against all other religions. What makes your faith superior to others?
Mark Lebbink
This internet infidel idea that somebody cannot prove that something does not exist is the exact reason why I made the statement I did. Anyone can prove that square-circles or married-bachelors do not exist (logical contradictions), we can also prove that living Tyrannosaurus rex do not exist, or that there are no Muslims that exist within the US congress.
"Nobody can provide evidence for something not being there, you can not provide evidence against the existance of a invisible spaggethi-monster ruling our galaxy and deciding on everything you dont understand."
- I have just given 4 examples of proving something does not exist. And we also have good evidence against the flying spaghetti monster (no arguments for it, spaghetti is a contingent, physical object, and thus cannot be invisible). Your argument breaks down when really challenged.
"My point being, nobody can provide evidendence against something that is made up."
- If Christianity and the Christian God is made up, provide arguments against that made up story, not just complaints. That is not the way to have a sophisticated discussion on these difficult questions.
- I see you are taking some arguments out of Dawkins work, which is completely philosophically illiterate.
- I have never claimed to have any arguments against other religions, or other gods. The claim is that atheists have NO good arguments against the existence of God, and theists can provide good arguments for the existence of God. If you disagree, please provide your argument as a reply, but if not, maybe talking to you will not yield anything for anyone.
Discovering Motion "People without a belief in Yahwei (the Christian God) are the same as the people who are without the belief in Zeus, Ra and Allah."
- Then Christians are also atheists, because they do not believe in any other God(s)? This makes the word 'atheist' a meaningless word, because EVERYONE lacks belief in some God.
- If you can provide me with solid arguments against the existence of the Christian God, then I will consider the argument and determine whether or not I need to believe. If you cannot provide me with arguments against the existence of God, then I will conclude that it is more likely than not that God exists.
Im sorry my arguments are not as prefect as yours. But make no mistake, this doesn't make you right.
You are right however on the fact that I can not provide proof for the absence of your God. In the same way you can not provide proof of the existence of him. And saying I am not having an sophisticated discussion is pretty thick coming from the guy who claimed there are only few intellactual atheists. However I believe about half of all scientists are theists. Which is very low compared to the 80 percent of the world who do believe in some kind of god. This would mean atheists are better represented as intelectuals then believers. I would love to add an explanation of how I have proof Christianity is made up. However I don't have any. For me this is the same as anything else, there is no proof of it being false (however, the bible has a lot of things in it that can be proven unrealistic if you take it literally, which I'm not suggesting you do) But there is no proof for it being a true either. I rest my case, proof for something is more important than proof against something (to me at least).
And PS: This: "Anyone can prove that square-circles or married-bachelors do not exist (logical contradictions), we can also prove that living Tyrannosaurus rex do not exist, or that there are no Muslims that exist within the US congress." is nonsense. I am not talking about logical contradictions. Plus, you cant unprove them, provide me with evidence they dont excist. You simply cant. Same for your God.
How did Noah have Caucasian, Asian and Black kids?
I got told from a Christian family that I will go to hell cause I'm an atheist , who agrees that this is kind of over the top
Yeah that's bullshit. My family use to say that. they're threatening you believe it or not & they're hiding behind their God to say it. Which is absurd when we really don't know the word of God if you think about it. The Bible is just a copy of a copy, we haven't found the original.
+TheLifeOf Jess When we die, we will know the truth.
I agree they overreact people shouldn't criticize on religion this is almost like racism it's not right to do things like that to people you should say back to them I may be going to hell but there might not even be one in the first place only your imagination of somewhere bad if I do then fine you were right but I'm almost 99.9 percent sure you aren't
+Part Toon I'm sorry but I can't think over all of your bullshit
What Next? Prove that it's false.
The 1st question is the most ruthlessly important one and could also be generalized to include all victims of the Holocaust. Anne Frank was just another out of several adolescents finding their purpose during the Holocaust. But when you read her diary, especially if you too are a teenager, I think there is a good chance that you will be amazed to discover that you by no means are the first one to experience certain emotions and for me personally, it felt good that someone had such remarkably similar thought processes, even though I am an Indian while she was a German and we are nearly 76 years apart by date of birth. It would be nothing short of a crime against humanity to deem her worthy of hellfire, or any other Holocaust victim for that matter. Poor girl. What a lively soul she bore in her bosom, all just to be stripped naked in Auschwitz and possibly sexually mistreated by Nazi officials and die shivering 😢. But she will continue to live on and on even after her death, just as she wished to, and that is the greatest legacy: The Diary of a Young Girl.❤
Not a single Christian will be able to answer all of these questions without referring to the bible, likely for ALL of them...
IamA6genderGiraffe ua-cam.com/video/vLEJ1sZxjA4/v-deo.html i dont know what you will think of this video but in my opinion it’s pretty good proof that the bible is true
Many Christian will be able to answer these , but they are lazy to type . And even if they do , it won’t mean anything to atheists
Some genuinely good questions in this
I really hope some troll actually tries to answer all of these questions lol
Desparate christians in the comment section, eh?
Silly theists...
Once you thank God for what you already have instead of asking him for favors only when you need him then he actually does great things for you.
(continued)
62 - Yes, I do find that strange. I also find it ironic that you also just described the attitude of most atheists in this question.
63 - A Mercedes SL is a car worthy of anyone's dream car list.
64 - Nah. I just let it slide. Not everyone is a Porsche guy like me, and that’s okay.
65 - People disagree on certain passages of scripture that are open for interpretation and, being human, they divide the church instead of just agreeing to disagree or finding common ground.
66 - They are not bad Christians or wrong just because they are in different denominations.
67, 68 - The ones that are the most coherent with scripture on how a church should believe and operate.
69 - Well, the word "natural" tells me that nature is responsible for them. They're just part of the natural cycle of the earth.
70 - Yes.
71 - I can't answer for all Christians. Freedom of religion will be practiced in this country (USA) as part of the Constitution. Whether it's constitutional or not to display the 10 Commandments on public property shouldn't really be our primary focus right now. In this very video you asked why God doesn't do more to help the needy in the world, and I don't think fighting over displaying the 10 Commandments in certain places helps anyone.
72 - No. I believe in God, and I think our country is under God. The First Amendment gives you the right to say what you like, while also giving me the right to say what I like. If you want to say "under no god", go ahead. You have the freedom to do that.
73 - It doesn't matter. There are parts of the world still today where people believe in a flat earth. A belief that's unpopular in a certain part of the world doesn't mean it's false.
74 - Probably, but that doesn't mean Christianity is false.
75 - Yes, that's not only possible, but that's actually true. There was no Christianity 3,000 years ago. Jesus had to actually come to earth and establish it. Same thing with Islam: before Muhammed, it didn't exist. By the way, if I was born in Communist China, North Korea, or the USSR, I would have been raised atheist. Would that make atheism false?
76, 77, 78 - No, childbirth is a natural process.
That should be all of them. Let me know what additional questions you have. As I've said before, these questions do a great deal to strengthen my faith, so I welcome them all!
Fairly reasonable answers in this bunch at least--I haven't seen your other replies yet, so I can't speak for them. For 62, I would disagree with your prognosis that most atheists will refuse to believe in a god no matter what. I'm sure there are plenty--mainly anti-theists who believe a god *doesn't* exist--but agnostic atheism is based on the unavailability of sufficient evidence to believe in a god and is not necessarily the belief there is no god. The main problem I see with claiming there is evidence of a god is we can only observe the natural world, not the supernatural one if any exists, at least with our current understanding.
#79 Where is your proof for your religion being "the right one", out of an infinite possibility of religions to make up.
#81 If you found undeniable proof that God does not exist would you share it with the religious people that you know?
#82 Do you believe that there is intelligent life on other planets in the universe?
#83 If yes, do you think that they are going to burn in Hell when they die?
***** #82 And if you did, how do you think they would react?
8-9 that’s like saying “why do you lock your door when you could pray to God for no one to rob you"
Look at Matthew 10:16, "Behold, I an sending you out as sheep in the midst of wolves, so be wise as serpents and innocent as doves." I believe this verse says basically to use common sense, but also be sure to trust God. In response to your question, we are told not to test God (Matthew 4:7) this is really a test to see if God can lock your door and we are commanded against such things.

Handige Harry I find it pretty scary that you would actually murder someone if your God asked you to. Would you at least ask for a reason? I think someone who gives orders without being able to provide any justification is not making good use of their authority.

I'm not religious, but I'm all for "live and let live" if people are being reasonable and not unnecessarily harming others. Making people feel attacked or alienated in conversation is just counter-productive anyway!

There are many questions regarding “which helps, prayer or actually doing something?” and the bible has an answer for this. It says that faith without action is dead. So there’s your answer.
I'm a Christian and that was actually a qualm I had a lot of trouble trying to think about. I had asked God to answer that question in prayer, and I just saw this comment!
Yep God uses people like doctors for his glory sometimes God will tell you to go to the hospital or to change something you are doing to get better
I believe I can answer most all these questions for you if you'd like, although some are a bit clickbait for lack of better words.I will say I am not a biblical scholar, but through my own studies i would say more questions than not can be answered rather rationally once you understand what the Christian view of God truly is about rather than denominational differences. I enjoyed the video and the time you put into it. I hope all is well with you and yours as this wasn't a particularly recent video.
5:40 I honestly wouldn’t care. Because when the pledge of Allegiance was made it actually didn’t say “under God”
Question thirty-one: Why would God, who said, "Thou shalt love thy neighbor as thyself," ask me to do that?
Because killing and murdering aren’t the same thing. Murder is bringing to death without reason and killing is bringing to death with reason. If god asked me to kill you I would, but if he asked me to murder you, I would know it was satan
@Ethan Wilde exactly what I was saying. So because of that, if god asked me to kill you I would do it, but he would never ask to murder you
@@dadsyogajourney888 bruh...u are kidding me
by far my favorite video you've made, I really could not stop laughing. The cognitive dissonance you have likely bogged down some Christians' minds with must have been insurmountable. They likely just got a glazed over look and went into a state of near shock trying to apologize for all these questions in their heads. On the other hand, maybe you got through to some of them.
You were doing well until this video. This video completely stereotypes Christians, in my honest opinion.
Well ya this is for the stereotypical christian that no one likes, for we don't really have problems with the descant ones.
I think he's getting some payback on Christians from when they stereotype athiests
Yeah, well... a large number of Christians don't do that.
yes
i’d like to see a christian respond to this video and attempt to answer every question without saying “i don’t know” or “it’s part of god’s plan”
I use to be so sceptical and angry about christianity but when Jesus touch your heart and you experience the love that he has for you, you will be forever change. It has someone that is looking up for you and care for you so much. Seek God and you will find Him and its gona be the best thing you could ever get in this life, God bless you all.
Jesus can't hear you or help you, only Allah can, he's the real God.
What was god doing before the earth was created? Just waiting an infinite time until he suddenly made up his mind?
I think if you would read the Quran u would know. I’m not forcing u tho
@@Sockslayer69 Come with some counter-arguments. You have read it so explain
@@zzzz5449 I didn’t read the whole Quran. Bc I don’t speak or read Arabic that well but ik some stuff
@@zzzz5449 the only things that are written in the Quran are that he created angles and devils. angles from light and devils from fire. Then he created Adam (first human being) god said bow to Adam everyone did but one devil didn’t. It didnt like the fact that he is made of fire and the angles are made of light. And he didn’t want to bow to someone who was made out of mud. And then god made eve. God made a tree he said “don’t you take a fruit from that tree or there will be consequences” the devil posed him and said “what will you lose if you eat a fruit” so Adam and Eve went and ate the fruits. God confronted them then god sent them to earth. And that’s how human population started. If it wasn’t for the devil we’ve could’ve lived in heaven.
If Christianity were true would you believe it?
Believe it or not christians will ignore all of these questions!!
