In storytelling, the main issue with creating a character who's supposed to be a genius, is that the character can only be as smart as the person writing them.
Once, I went to read the bible out of curiosity. I started with the very very beginning, genesis. I didn't go very far due to the sheer absurdity of the story. I remember stopping after the story of a character who got drunk and fell asleep naked in a tent, then was found by one of his kids, and then somehow the kid was punished for finding him in that unflattering position that he put himself in. After that I lost quite a bit of respect for whoever bases their life decisions on this book.
@@aristola4116listen all due respect for whatever you wanna believe, but if we're gonna be interpreting every single phrase we might as well not read anything. What damn joke, btw... Canaan already existed before Ham saw Noah's nakedness. And the book absolutely *never* says that Noah was with or had Sex with his wife. Why would someone randomly add that he just got laid? The book literally says he got drunk with wine until he got wasted, in his drunk Ness he got naked and then was seen by Canaan. Nothing about sex or else.
I think you couldn't have described my experience better. I had promised myself I'd listen to the Bible while working, just for sake of reading it at least once in my life and 2 hours ago I started listening to it (was raised catholic but didn't believe nor practiced it since very young, I had trouble believing anything). And you just said exactly what happened to me, I just couldn't habdle the stupidity. It sound like a fantasy story written by a 9yo srsly. After I seized to be offended by the realization of how I had just wasted 2 hours of my life, I realized that people back then were very ignorant and their vision of things came from not knowing. Ie: how God created the universe (completely earth centric as if the earth is the beginning of everything). Etc It's such a waste of my time, there's no way I'm finishing it. There are tons of books that could actually teach me something or at least be fun... Star wars is waaay better fantasy.
@@aristola4116 why would "saw his father's nakedness" actually mean "have sex with his own mother"? If that's a euphemism, it's a terrible one. I don't believe you because that simply does not make sense. Unless we somehow have other examples of ancient literature where such a phrase means "having sex with your mother". But I highly doubt that, because in any other piece of literature, when a euphemism is used, first of all you can usually decipher what it means (but in that case it sounds completely nonsensical), and it always makes sense in context. But in this case it doesn't at all, because the next part of the story is that the drunk guy's other children come to cover him up because he was naked. How do you explain that? How does that relate to the son supposedly fucking his mother? It very much sounds like the passage was meant to be taken literally, because if we add in your euphemism the story becomes incoherent. My friend, it sounds like your teacher told you "it's a euphemism" as an excuse to completely change the meaning of the story to make it make more sense to you so you wouldn't doubt the bible. Have you heard the phrase "thought-terminating cliché"? I encourage you to look out for those things. They are phrases that are designed to make you stop thinking for yourself when your logical thoughts take you away from the doctrine being imposed upon you. Phrases like "god works in mysterious ways". In your case, it sounds like "it's a euphemism" was one of those tactics used to make you stop questioning. And it's not right. You should be free to fully explore your own thoughts on any topic you want. Edit: here is the story, for reference. It doesn't make more sense if we add in Noah's wife having sex with her son. In fact it makes much less sense. And Noah's wife was mentioned in other parts of the story. Surely, if your interpretation is right and the bible if the perfect word of god, then it would be understandable to all, and it would at least mention Noah's wife in the story so we would know she's involved. Also, I did get something wrong. It's not even Noah's son who gets punished. It's his grandson who didn't do anything wrong. Do you really want to get your sense of justice from this book? Genesis 9 New International Version The Sons of Noah 18 The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham and Japheth. (Ham was the father of Canaan.) 19 These were the three sons of Noah, and from them came the people who were scattered over the whole earth. 20 Noah, a man of the soil, proceeded to plant a vineyard. 21 When he drank some of its wine, he became drunk and lay uncovered inside his tent. 22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father naked and told his two brothers outside. 23 But Shem and Japheth took a garment and laid it across their shoulders; then they walked in backward and covered their father’s naked body. Their faces were turned the other way so that they would not see their father naked. 24 When Noah awoke from his wine and found out what his youngest son had done to him, 25 he said, “Cursed be Canaan! The lowest of slaves will he be to his brothers.” 26 He also said, “Praise be to the Lord, the God of Shem! May Canaan be the slave of Shem. 27 May God extend Japheth’s[b] territory; may Japheth live in the tents of Shem, and may Canaan be the slave of Japheth.”

I've been teaching in colleges at all levels for many years now. From ivy League to community colleges with open enrollment. You would be surprised just how many people are not capable of getting very far with critical reasoning skills and knowledge acquisition. I needed to adjust my expectations a couple times. We all have a very strong distorting bias regarding what we consider to be the normal range of human intelligence. No one can fathom what it is like to have an intellect substantially higher than their own. But it also works the other way around. None of us can imagine what it is like to inhabit the mind of someone with a significantly lower intelligence than our own. This is why both true intellectual disability and true genius can be extremely socially isolating. My point: it isn't necessarily religion stunting development. We don't like to say it out loud, but some people really are simply "stunted.". The question for the rest of us is if we are willing to let them be manipulated, used and deceived.
Would you open to the idea that God is timeless and He understands that the light is good before it's creation but wants to note how God sees the light? Which is good? If you wanted to convey that a timeless creator created something (the light) and that creator saw that light was good, how would you do it? Would you abruptly state all of the things God sees good in the beginning or would you disperse what God finds good as He creates them?

I suppose if someone were to ask why God didn't just make a billion humans at one time, rather than only two, a believer would answer, "God works in mysterious ways."
It was so that no one group could claim superior ancestry and everyone came from the same people. That was what I read from an apologetic source ignoring the "chosen people" thing.

If you wait one more billion years every lifeform can turn into every other lifeform. Compare that to God can do everything and think again about how science has a solution for everything.
The opening statement in the Bible, "In the Beginning" is loaded with tonnes of meaning. It owns up to a Wise creator, not like an abstract phrase like, "once upon a time," which is just a vogue imagination.
After reading the book of Genesis alone, sometimes I worry about our future as a species. The fact that there are people who literally believe this to be science and historical is mind boggling to me.
Genesis is credible. Even the first sentence shows how scientific it is. It said the heaven was created first then the earth. Scientists say the universe is older than the earth.
@@imax3d539 Science is a new kid in town which has been on a trial-and-error mode in arriving at the truth. Still it came to the right conclusion about the order of creation, the heavens first and then the earth, the earth's being suspended in space, etc., things that were already written in the bible.
6:18 Also, important detail: The moon is not tied to night! The moon revolves around the earth independently of the earth's revolution around the sun. In other words, the moon is in the sky during the day just as frequently as in the night!
Unfortunately, this youtuber still doesn't understand the story in Gen 1 thru 8. It's far more absurd than reported, due to people not bothering to read and understand a clueless ancient perspective. The first light created is a backlight, over the top water. The blue sky is water. They did not understand atmospheric scattering of blue light. So it is possible to have 3 days prior to the creation of the Sun, if you buy into the idea that the blue sky is day, and that blueness rotates around earth.
Nothing at all wrong with the scientific method, unless the answers are limited to materialism. Keep in mind the imaginations of scientists have been wrong about 99.9999 % of the time, whats left is called engineering.
I would argue that the scientific method predates the Bible. Intelligent life have being using scientific method before they knew it was the scientific method.
I just left the Jehovah's Witness organization with my wife 3 weeks ago. We are trying to find out what's true to us.

I'm sorry that you feel consuming information from this or similar channels can make one fall out of the grace of their diety; it must make learning difficult.
@@m.h6858 You were referring to this athiest channel straying too far from god. I'm saying that an athiest cannot stray from what they don't believe in.

I'm an atheist, but, I'm honestly interested in reading the Old and New Testament front to back to fully understand where Christians come from, and see where people pick and choose their inspiration.
Lol it doesn’t work that way! If you want to know. Then you have to not only read but also do everything you can to live life the way God commanded. Love, forgive, and give. Follow the commandments to the best of your ability. Never giving up no matter how bitter the world can be and no matter how bitter the world can make you. It’s a life long pursuit. The Bible isn’t a book of answers. It’s a book of truths. Translating the Bible isn’t a matter of reading it from front to back. It’s a matter of reading and going forth to live your life. The truths of the Bible come to you in tandom with living the words of the Bible. If you are going to “read” it. Id suggest also attempting to understand it. Which takes an entire lifetime and a realization that you will honestly never truly know until the day you die. Matthew 13:13 Therefore I speak to them in parables; because while seeing they do not see, and while hearing they do not hear, nor do they understand. 13:14 In their case the prophecy of Isaiah is being fulfilled, which says, ‘You will keep on hearing, but will not understand; You will keep on seeing, but will not perceive.
@Joseph Davis please do read the noble Quran too. Quran is the final revelation from God. Earlier ones were Taurat sent to Moses, Zabur to David and Injil to Jesus. Quran was sent to Muhammad and all the people during his time and after him for guidance.
I'm surprised you didn't mention something obvious. The fact that language is a human-made thing, yet it reads that god named the light "day" and the darkness "night" before we even existed.
First, he invented Hebrew. 😆 and those words can be switched around and not mean what they do in English. It's the best kind of semantics. And becomes the basis for a lot of apologetics. In spite of Moses' fantasy, it wasn't written in stone. Rock gliss. 🎸

It’s almost as if the whole thing was written by primitive people with a limited understanding of their environment making guesses about how it all came about.
The interesting thing about Genesis 1 is that it relates things happening in the same order science says it happened. For example: at first the whole planet was covered in water; life started in the waters; life first in the waters, then on land; first vegetation, then animals. So the conclusion must be: science is also a fairy tale.
@@joseluisalcantarasanchez269 is that a fact? So the earth and the day/night cycle came into existence before the sun? Very interesting theory you’ve got there.
Incorrect. It did NOT take a process of 4 days to create the sun, moon and stars. Rather they were simply created on day 4. Just FYI For an all powerful supremely intelligent being, he could as easily have chosen to create the whole universe in a single instance. The reason why God created in 6 days and rested on the seventh is to give the pattern of a 7 day week. That is the origin of our 7 day week in cultures all over the world!
Also a day is defined in Genesis as period of darkness (erev -could mean high entropy, disorder) and light (boker - could mean low entropy, order). Each period represent an input of information into the system.
God was like in genesis 1 "this is good and that is good and everything is good" and a few chapters later he says "everything is so bad i need to drown everything in a huge flood and start from scratch"
MrXzavier88 Like people that pray and basically talk to themselves, apparently god was also talking to himself. Which raises the question, if god prays, who does he pray to and why wouldn’t we pray to the head man instead of god?!
You speak of "implied".That means you don't understand what is said. You speak of the sun as if day is a function of rising of the sun and night the absence of the sun contradicting yourself. If it is so how did scientists measure the age of the universe, when the big bang occurred and our solar system. The sun governed not made the day, living things produced after their kind. You are ridiculing the bible but not disproving it. The big bang and evolution theory is still a theory at the end of it all but you still BELIEVE it yet you look down on those that believe the bible story.
True and surely an all knowing, all powerful God would have had no doubts that it would turn out to be good. Why would such a God have to wait until creation was done to decide it was good? It's almost as if God was employing trial an error.
You guys are childish by interpreting God's statement in a ridiculous way. It's a normal that he said, "its good." Because of this I know that God created everything as good originally. It's for us this was said and written. It shows that human being are responsible for making the planet earth to a degraded form. This statement is very significant, not childish at all.
@@rajiphilips5937 Should a God actually exist and the Bible be It's inerrant word, then that word should not be so ambiguous i.e. why do you interpret it so differently when it is clear that God had to wait until the implementation of creation before being able to determine it was good?

The reality is way more astonishing than the myth. The universe is totally mind blowing! There was a time when mythology was the only form of literature. Obviously this story belongs to that era.

As someone interested in the classification of living things, it is appalling to me that they imply that birds, fish, livestock, "creatures that move along the ground", and humans are different from animals. And anything that doesn't fit into any other category is apparently a "creature that moves along the ground", whatever that means. They also don't mention Fungi, Bacteria, Archaea, or Protista at all, and treat plants as if they are not living things. Another point: Angiosperms, or flowering plants, evolved in the Cretaceous period, long after other kinds of plants. Creation myths are infuriating.

You didn't mention the birth defects from interbreeding of Adam and Eve's children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, etc. Same problem happens after the great flood with only two of each animal.
Not defending the Bible but you probably would not have seen birth defects that early on. You only get birth defects when you have defective genes. If you have a good pool of genetics you can keep interbreeding. The problem with inbreeding is if one parent has a defective genes it has a very good chance of popping up in the offspring
@Jubei Yang dude, I said I wasnt defending the Bible. I was just pointing out that you only have genetic problems with inbreeding if you have bad genetics. Lots of farmers and reptile breeders will inbreed their animals without problems and they actually use it to see if they have any hidden defects. If the parents don't have any defective genes then it is highly unlikely offspring will untill they develope a mutation. Inbreeding doesn't cause defects just because it's inbreeding. Inbreeding increases the rate at which a defective gene will pair up with another defective gene.
You missed a gold opportunity to points out that the Bible says that outer space is full of water. On the second day, when he created the “sky”, he did it by separating the waters of Earth from the waters of outer space, putting that “vault” (our atmosphere) between them. Outer space being full of water is kooky dukes.
Not really that kooky, even secular scientist believe there's a medium through which light and sound travel. They call it aether. It's the basis for the experiments behind the theory of relativity and of special relativity. Besides, when we breathe out on a cold day we can see the water in the air.
@@meandepiphany Scientists don't believe in the luminiferous aether anymore. It was suspected once it was shown that light traveled as a wave (the double-slit experiment) and up to that point, all waves required some medium (e.g. sound travels through air, water, etc.). Christiaan Huygens suggested it to provide the 'medium' for light waves. It was basically a place-holder for something not yet understood. The Michaelson-Morley experiment in 1887 (considered perhaps the greatest null-result of all time) set out to detect the aether. Their experiment was far more sensitive than it needed to be in order to detect it ... but failed. Today it is now understood that there is no aether. But moreover, the experiment showed that light always travels at the same speed (in a vacuum) for all observers ... even if one source of light is stationary and another is moving. Earth's velocity as it travels around the Sun is roughly 30 km/sec. This means for part of the year we are moving 'toward' some stars at 30 km/sec and 6 months later we are moving 'away' from those same stars at 30 km/sec ... yet the measured speed of light from those stars (which should measure a 60 km/sec difference) always works out to the same speed. This had consequences regarding the nature of time -- which cannot flow at the same rate for everyone in all situations. That leads to Special Relativity which linked light to the other laws of mechanics and unifies space and time into 'spacetime' (one word for one thing) ... shortly followed by General Relativity which also linked in gravity.
@@meandepiphany Which scientists are you talking about? Please come to 21st century. Not even the so called "dark matter" can be considered the "aether".
Also, god supposed to be all knowing, means he knew they were going to eat from it and he knew he was going to punish them and he knew he was going to drown almost everyone including babies, puppies and kittens. So god is a jerk.
Bobby Allen: I can see tht Alf Landon (not the famous politician) may have been kidding. But I'm not so sure about you. You kidding? Or what? I'm dim these days. (OK, maybe always)
Good question but noone cant answer that question all I can say overall the sun is associated with day and the moon is associated with night that's good enough for me ! ;)
The moon doesn't emit light. It reflects the sun's light. So would you call a mirror a light? No, because a mirror is not a light. The only "light" out there is the sun, which a deity would know but people didn't back then. (And the sun is the same exact thing as any other star, just much closer to us. It's not something separate or different. Yes, the moon is often seen during the day. As usual, reality isn't as cut and dried as portrayed in the bible. Religious holy books aren't the best place to go for actual, useful information about the real world. That's not their purpose, anyway.
@JesusChristianLivingToAllWhoBelieveOnHisName You need to consider the possibility that your religion is imperfect because it was created by men, like all the other religions in the world. Or were all religions created by gods?
I took an Old Testament class and the teacher thought people combined a couple different creation stories to make genesis. A bunch of stories were being passed down orally and when they started writing they tried putting them together. It’s just a theory.
That theory is borne out by the manuscripts. There are several different versions of the stories from several sources, all combined into what became the book of Genesis: the Yahwist (Y/J), the Elohist (E), and the Priestly (P) versions of the written stories, plus others. Whoever put Genesis together simply wanted to preserve all the written versions of the "oral traditions" and had no concern for the contradictions the various versions had with each other, hence the two creation stories, the two conflicting sets of 10 commandments, etc.
I'm reading the NRSV and it comes with two creation stories. The first is quite straightforward and the alternative is the story of Adam and Even in the garden of Eden. I guess they included two of these different stories as there were many possible ones? I need to see where the alternative ends because Adam and Eve go on for some time. Perhaps just the eden part is alternative idk
A reasonable theory. The ancient Torah was a collection of oral tradition that was written down, and it was not & is not now intended to be taken literally. Once the early Christian church was elevated by Constantine, the church establishment set about codifying their disparate beliefs - and some sources were rejected. Then ppl were brought into the fold by adopting their pagan traditions. The Catholic Church & its offshoots now represent a general human culture, while the rejected traditions represent hidden information that only few can appreciate.

It's astonishing that any modern-day person could read the Genesis creation myth and not instantly shrug it off as *ridiculous in the extreme.* And since there *never was* a Garden of Eden/Adam and Eve - and therefore no "fall of man/original sin" and subsequent need of redemption/a "savior" - the entire raison d'etre and foundation of all three Abrahamic religions utterly disintegrates into *meaningless absurdity.* Just one glaring example: In the Genesis creation myth, the sun wasn't created until the 4th day - so how were they measuring "days"? If some imaginary, man-invented god couldn't even get his own creation project correct, then why should anyone believe or trust anything else "he" (supposedly) proclaims or does? Of course, Genesis was written by primitive, ignorant, superstitious men with a nefarious tribal agenda who knew virtually nothing vis à vis science, biology, geology, cosmology, anthropology, etc., etc.

Evolution is not new, its been known that populations speciate over vast time, most notably when we domesticated wild species, they change through selective breeding, then the mechanism for how nature does it was discovered by Charles Darwin in 1859, natural selection and then it was debated thoroughly and mountains upon mountains of evidence have come since, including an entirely new field of science, genetics, with the discovery of DNA, which is the strongest field of evidence for evolution, it provides the heritability mechanism and so much more like Endogenous Retro viral DNA insertions in the DNA which shows how closely related species are and is definitive evidence for common ancestry.
@Winston Grettum Yes an amazing programmer but also a very flawed 1, tons of copies of the same genes, lots of non coding dna, tons of endoginous retro viral dna in there and genes are a tangled mess etc and the way the dna has been modified through a grand process of reproduction and mass death, countless organism don't make it to birth, countless organisms don't make it to reproductive age, the struggle for survival is brutal, if i was to attribute this process to a conscious being, i would call them cruel and wasteful, yes it can produce astonishing complexity but the vast amount of death and suffering the process produces is unfathomable.
Most females lie and pretend a lot when it comes to relationships. Most females mainly care about looks and money when it comes to relationships. Most females prefer rude good looking guy over less avg looking nice guy. Most females lie when they say personality matters more than looks.

Please don't be mislead by this guy's messages. He is mocking God and will pay a great price for it as will those who follow these false teachings. It's proven. God has told the ending from the beginning. No man has EVER been able to do this with 100% accuracy; no man can do the things that God has done. Don't base your eternity on something some guy says on UA-cam. Read the Bible for yourself & then you decide on your own! It's is the Living Word of God. It's as relevant today as it was thousands of years ago. Please be careful who you allow to own your soul. Our souls live forever, only our bodies pass away. Our souls go to ONE of two very different places when we die: heaven or hell. We aren't all just here because of some big boom. Before the universe was created we were chosen, He knew us before we were even conceived. Guard your souls, be very careful. By now, because of what we are seeing in this world - everyone should be very much aware of the evil that exists. This is because of God's adversary, satan. The battle being fought right before our eyes is spiritual warfare, good vs evil, God vs. satan. Right now the earth belongs to satan, but soon Jesus will return and take what is HIS. It's been foretold, like everything else. Good wins! God wins! Satan will be destroyed. He knows this, he cannot win, so he's going to try to kill and destroy as many souls as he can before his time (short) is up. We can see this if we are willing to open our eyes. Right now satan is going after our youth. Just look around and see the battle of good vs evil being fought in the physical realm right now. This guys is delusional and sadly, those who follow his teachings are being led away from the ONLY ONE who can save them. Don't trust your soul to one of satan's minions who only wishes to destroy your soul and keep YOU from ever reaching your full potential in the Lord. For now, satan is the prince of this world, but Jesus is the KING and He will rule forever in due time.

I was raised a christian and believed it all for far too long. I don't remember exactly how it got recommended or which video it was, but while I was a believer I stumbled unto a video of yours. I listened to it for about 1-2 minutes and it pissed me off. My baseless defense mechanism kicked in and I closed the video very quickly.. Thinking that you were a "lost soul" and you don't know what you're talking about. Or, mostly, I said that to myself. In reality, the first seed of doubt was planted. I think it took me about 2 years from then to start investigating. I didn't really want to up until then because I didn't want to listen to proof that I was wrong. I finally let myself investigate though and I am so proud to call myself an atheist now. It took me a little over about three years from those first couple of minutes of your video to the moment where I finally felt completely free from especially the fear of hell that kept persisting. So basically I just want to thank you and apologize for my opinion of you back then. For those minutes, I actually hated you. But now I know that you were the one who started me on my path to freedom. Keep up what you do. Love from the Netherlands.
Don't be a atheist please? Cause regardless if it was god or not, something or someone did create all of us and this world as we no of it..And if you turn to atheist/ devil believer etc, than you must believe in god as well..cause the devil was once a angle...BUT enough of that, you are right tho about the Christianity world..I was also born into Christianity, and after I did my research and started putting history and our government etc all together, it came to me that everything was a lie... Christianity is not a religion that we were tought to believe, it's a Faith Base cult...and I love my family and etc, but I have had a hell of a time over the yrs to prove to them that all this time going to church and being a Christian is a lie and a sin as any...God was a Hebrew, Jesus was a Jew..so we're do we get all this other religions from? Also how can a powerful creator not stop his own son from dying on a Cross? And the million dollar question that no one can answer is how did god become himself? Also the bible contradicts itself in so many ways..it will tell me to turn my cheek from bad people etc, but then tell me eye for an eye and tooth for a tooth...the bible might be a good source of living structure and etc..but it also gives bypoler and contradicting structure as well to the point to were we really don't no how to interpret it any more or how to follow it cause it's damned if you do and damned if you don't...So my religious beliefs are out and I have no answers for any of it, but still believe someone or something is out their very powerful to create everything...
@@jeffrutar5370 Jeff, you are so close to reality. Make the leap. All you describe effectively proves that there is no God, and no need for a God. The one thing it is always worth remembering, and repeating, just because you don’t understand something (like how life started and then evolved over ridiculously long timeframes) does not mean “therefore God” - it just means you (and in this case, everyone) don’t understand how it happened.
@@jeffrutar5370 Hey Jeff, you seem so far along the journey.. keep going, keep asking questions. Hopefully you'll also be able to free yourself someday. And don't worry, I'm just an atheist ;) not a devil believer or worshipper. To believe in the devil that you're describing, you pretty much need to be a theist which I'm not. Anyway, best of luck to you, hope you'll be able to put aside your fears as well someday.
@TEE PERO I once heard someone make the following analogy: I feel like, all my life, I've been sitting behind a window.. watching a beautiful landscape but only seeing it from my limited point of view. Becoming an atheist is like walking out of a door next to that window that I didnt even know was there. And once you're outside, you see that the landscape was just a painting.. it wasn't real even if it looked beautiful. Now I'm outside, smelling the grass and the world is a million times more beautiful than it was from behind the window. And no one could ever convince you to go back. Because just like a magic trick, once you see it, you can never go back to ignorance. I can never be a believer again... I saw past the magic trick, it was just a lie. It's so much better on the outside :) come, join us ;)
@@jeffrutar5370 woah there, at first reading I missed this one -“if you turn to atheist/devil believer etc,” Hang on there buddy. Being an atheist and not believing in god pretty much goes hand in hand with also not believing in the devil. Atheist and devil worshiper are NOT the same thing. In the same way, atheists also do not believe in angels (though we do believe in angles, they are cool!), either good ones or bad ones.
@@lerozalico4753 Why? Because the stories are written with the knowledge at the time of writing, not inspired by some higher existence. Example: line 1: let there be light (where does the light come from?), two days later (what's a day, if the sun is not moving through the sky?) sun (finally, a star, source of light!, moon (not a source of light but a reflector of the sun) and stars (not 'holes in the sky, but just a lot more stars like our sun) are created. If the bible really was inspired by the Creator, how can there be so many errors in one page? If this section was written by 'just a guy like you and me' it makes perfectly sense - in that time. If you go though the books you can find this type of inconsistencies and lack of knowledge in almost every single page. The reasonable explanation is: 'it's just phantasy'. Note: the bible being made up and written by humans, not inspired by some higher power does not proof that God does not, or cannot exist, only that the bible is not written by his instructions.
@@lerozalico4753 according to the big bang theory there was light before the stars formed. So, if you really want to talk things straight the Bible is right. Sort of.
We don't know but as the writing down was ,likely when the Israelites trecked across to the Palestinian area to settle and there they started to write down their stories. So the author or authors with redactors created a single document out of a number but none of them ever was present when the creation events happened. We are supposed to accept that god inspired them to write sown the story but given how quiet this god is, it is far more likely to be legends they picked up from Babylon and surrounding tribes.
The part about creating man and woman at the same time stems from the removal of any mention of Lilith, the supposed first woman who was created at the same time as Adam.
Don't forget how genesis 2 contradicts that man was created before plants and animals and then after all that woman was made which is a contradictory order

Evil God Of Bible. Here's a list of bible verses that make one wonder just what sort of God. Christians give their lives to in sincere patronage to what they call 'Holy'. If Anyone who claims to admire and worship the biblical God has either abandoned all sense of moral judgment or has never actually read the Old Testament. Since most believers are good people, I prefer to assume the latter. I think the world would be a much better place if people would actually read the book. A.A. Milne, author of Winnie the Pooh, said: "The Old Testament is responsible for more atheism, agnosticism, disbelief - call it what you will - than any book ever written; it has emptied more churches than all the counterattractions of cinema, motor bicycle and golf course." Before we can cure an illness we have to diagnose it. 17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them. (No one can Abolish Any laws of Bible old Testament or any kind) Matthew 5:17 "So the assembly sent 12,000 of their best warriors to Jabesh-gilead with orders to kill everyone there, including women and children. “This is what you are to do,” they said. “Completely destroy[a] all the males and every woman who is not a virgin.” Among the residents of Jabesh-gilead they found 400 young virgins who had never slept with a man, and they brought them to the camp at Shiloh in the land of Canaan." Judges 21:10-24 NLT- Obviously these women were repeatedly raped. These sick bastards killed and raped an entire town and then wanted more virgins, so they hid beside the road to kidnap and rape some more. How can anyone see this as anything but evil? 10. God destroys a good family 'for no reason.' God made a bet with Satan that Job, a good and blameless man, would remain faithful even if he killed his children and ruined his life. Here we see God indicting himself for the crime, openly confessing that he destroyed a family "for no reason." "The Lord said to Satan, 'Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one like him on the Earth, a blameless and upright man who fears God and turns away from evil. He still persists in his integrity, although you incited me against him, to destroy him for no reason.' " (Job 2:3 New Revised Standard Bible) 9. God destroys the fetuses of those who do not worship him. This is not the only feticidal passage in the bible, but it is the worst: "You shall acknowledge no God but me. . . . You are destroyed, Israel. . . . The people of Samaria must bear their guilt, because they have rebelled against their God. They will fall by the sword; their little ones will be dashed to the ground, their pregnant women ripped open." (Hosea 13:4, 9, 16 New International Version) 8. God approves the massacre of a peaceful people so one of his tribes could have a place to live. Most believers think God destroyed the Canaanites because they were depraved and immoral, although the bible does not make that claim. They were killed - and labeled "evil" and "wicked" - simply because they did not worship him. Here is a group of people who did nothing wrong. They were "at peace and secure," but they had to be eliminated. "And in those days the tribe of the Danites was seeking a place of their own where they might settle, because they had not yet come into an inheritance among the tribes of Israel. . . . Then they said to [the priest], 'Please inquire of God to learn whether our journey will be successful.' The priest answered them, 'Go in peace. Your journey has the Lord's approval.' . . . Then they took what Micah had made, and his priest, and went on to Laish, against a people at peace and secure. They attacked them with the sword and burned down their city. . . . The Danites rebuilt the city and settled there." (Judges 18:1-28 NIV) The Canaanites were not the evildoers. The Israelites were the invaders! 7. Babies are slaughtered and wives raped. The murderous Old Testament deity deemed human life to be worthless, placing his own megalomaniacal glory above human values. Here is one of the worst examples: "See, the day of the Lord is coming - a cruel day, with wrath and fierce anger. . . . I will put an end to the arrogance of the haughty. . . . Their infants will be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses will be looted and their wives violated." (Isaiah 13:9-16 NIV) 6. A mixed-race couple is murdered by a godly priest to keep God's people pure. The righteous priest Phinehas murdered a loving couple for the crime of miscegenation. Then he was praised by God and rewarded for the hate crime with a perpetual priesthood for keeping the nation racially pure. "Just then one of the Israelites came and brought a Midianite woman into his family, in the sight of Moses and in the sight of the whole congregation of the Israelites. When Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he got up and left the congregation. Taking a spear in his hand, he went after the Israelite man into the tent, and pierced the two of them, the Israelite and the woman, through the belly. So the plague was stopped among the people of Israel. The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 'Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, has turned back my wrath from the Israelites by manifesting such zeal among them on my behalf that in my jealousy I did not consume the Israelites. Therefore say, "I hereby grant him my covenant of peace. It shall be for him and for his descendants after him a covenant of perpetual priesthood, because he was zealous for his God, and made atonement for the Israelites.' '" (Numbers 25:6-13 NRSV) 5. A daughter is burned as an acceptable sacrifice to God. General Jephthah made a vow with God in order to defeat the enemy. When Jephthah won the war, God received his hundred pounds of flesh. "And Jephthah made a vow to the Lord: 'If you give the Ammonites into my hands, whatever comes out of the door of my house to meet me when I return in triumph from the Ammonites will be the Lord's, and I will sacrifice it as a burnt offering.' . . . When Jephthah returned to his home in Mizpah, who should come out to meet him but his daughter, dancing to the sound of timbrels! . . . After the two months, she returned to her father, and he did to her as he had vowed." (Judges 11:30-39 NIV) After burning his daughter, Jephthah was rewarded with a prestigious judgeship and was later buried with honor. 4. The cannibalistic God makes people eat human flesh. There are nine passages in the Old Testament where God makes cannibalistic threats. Here is the worst one: "And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me; Then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for your sins. And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat." (Leviticus 26:27-29 King James Version) 3. God threatens rape, then takes credit for it. This passage was new to me, and it blew me away. I guess I had only read it before in the King James Version, where the sexual molestation is not obvious. Here it is in the NRSV, where the Israelites were asking why they were being attacked by the Babylonians: "Hear and give ear; do not be haughty, for the Lord has spoken. . . . And if you say in your heart, 'Why have these things come upon me?' it is for the greatness of your iniquity that your skirts are lifted up, and you are violated . . . because you have forgotten me and trusted in lies. I myself will lift up your skirts over your face, and your shame will be seen." (Jeremiah 13:15-26 NRSV) "Skirts lifted up" is sexual assault. "Violate" is rape. The King James Version has the quaint "heels made bare," which obscures the sexual assault. Notice that the "iniquity" for which they were being raped was not immorality or depravity; it was simply because "you have forgotten me." 2. God threatens sexual molestation. The Lord will harass attractive uppity women by exposing their private parts. "Moreover the Lord saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet: Therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the Lord will discover their secret parts." (Isaiah 3:16-17 KJV) The New International Version covers up this embarrassing passage with "make their scalps bald" in place of "discover their secret parts [Hebrew: poth = vagina]." Other translations are more honest: The Orthodox Jewish Bible has "lay bare their nakedness," Amplified Bible "stripped naked," Complete Jewish Bible "expose their private parts," Common English Version "uncover their private parts," and Living Bible "expose their nakedness for all to see." Even if "daughters of Zion" is a metaphor for Israel, it is a metaphor of sexual assault. 1. God wants you to be happy to dash babies against the rocks. I have always thought this was the worst verse in the bible, and my opinion remains unchanged. "O daughter Babylon, you devastator! Happy shall they be who pay you back what you have done to us! Happy shall they be who take your little ones and dash them against the rock!"(Psalm 137:8-9 NRSV) God was not merely saying that regrettable collateral damage might occur during wartime. He said believers should be happy - some translations say "blessed" - to kill innocent babies of those who are keeping you from worshipping your own god. How can Jesus(which Never exist)save any body..even he did not save himself..dead Zombie on cross....😈

This guy making these videos is spewing garbage if he would actually read it he’d know JESUS was around from the very beginning because HE is GOD.

Science,biology, and archaeology prove the Bible true ! This guy that’s trying to mock GOD needs to read and study do some research instead of flipping thru it like a magazine at a dentist
New viewer here. Someone on another YT channel suggested that I view this video. On that video I commented - "Considering Genesis, I've been wondering who it was who witnessed God creating stuff? There were no humans for many of the "first days". And even when Adam and Eve came along did they instantly know how to write down what happened to them? My evangelical Christian sister could not answer me about how anyone knew what happened "in the beginning". I made sure she didn't use the "inspired word of God" thing where God supposedly tells someone what they should write down when they weren't actually there to see it. Anyone could say they were inspired and write any fantastic story they wanted. Thing is, Genesis is just the product of someone's imagination, or a number of someones' imaginations.
So all the biographies of peoples lives in the past were written by themselves or even people who lived at the same time? HARDLY!

Hey I can understand you because I left Christianity in 2018 and my growth was exponential ! I learned so much and I was able to become even more intelligent. The problem with Abrahamic religions not only Christianity is that they put you in a little box and they suppress your instincts, your creativity for looking for answers and your critical thinking and if you are bold enough to question they will tell you're listening to the devil's lies.

In the beginning, sentient apes created stories about how the world came to be, in an attempt to explain things they had no way of understanding. These stories were very silly, and when other sentient apes laughed at them, they would bash their heads in with rocks. Over the millenia, the stories changed, but the head bashing continued.
Exactly, stories were written with no idea that one day science would unravel many of these notions. But human self-importance is highly addictive and contagious, God creates man in Gods image. Odd that in what respect could humans be considered 'god' like .hairy, belligerent, jealous?.. of course if God were created in mans image it makes more sense. What a ruse, we are in charge, the rules we give you were given to us by God, and we interpret the rules on your behalf, that you must obey or you might be punished. Like a masterclass - a psychologist would point to a deep inner need to control environment and other people, which certainly is a human trait in some. Oddly there are a variety of creation stories, many are similar, some in Asia are quite different - to western ears they seem odd, elephants and funny creatures - but no more odd than people being turned into salt pillars, being thrown up by a whale or removing the obstacle of a large river. The problem with one group writing an account about their own history is that it could objectively be described as propaganda. Why are you special God said so ... which is comforting to believe and difficult to argue with as they really do believe they are 'special' because ... well God said so ...
The discrepancies of this creation myth is proof of an amalgamation of earlier myths of ancient Persian and Egyptian myths. Ancient Palestine was a trade rout, so, of course y here was amalgamation of myths

Truth isn’t religion. The Bible says to stay away from religions. Faith is in Gods ways, not his existence. Demons know he exists. Does this mean they go to heaven? No. Why do you get to go? Because you follow his ways.
About how both man and woman being created and then a chapter later, Eve was created, it's because Lilith was the first woman in Hebrew/Jewish traditions (which was borrowed and edited to create the Old Testament) and she refused to bow to Adam because she saw them as equals and was banished. That was why Eve was later created - as someone lesser than Adam to bow down to him.

@Winston Grettum "his desire that all creation could share his happiness " Except for the majority of people who suffer eternal torment in a lake of fire. Damn, god's a dick.
@Winston Grettum There is this ... "10 And the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever. ... And the dead were judged according to their works, as recorded in the books. 13 And the sea gave up the dead that were in it, Death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and all were judged according to what they had done. 14 Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire; 15 and anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire. ... 7 Those who conquer will inherit these things, and I will be their God and they will be my children. 8 But as for the cowardly, the faithless,[e] the polluted, the murderers, the fornicators, the sorcerers, the idolaters, and all liars, their place will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.” (Revelation 20:10-21:7-8) Those who take Revelation as foretelling the future and being as literal as possible, do hold that there is a lake of fire where all those people who are not "saved" will suffer eternal torment .. as the bible indicates.
The word is "Elohim", the plural form of god. When afixed with a definite article, usually mean God, and without, is a general terms for spiritual beings. The old testament is a Jewish literature and best understood with a Jewish mindset. It's not unusual that kings and sovereigns to address themselves when individually with the royal "we".
@@philiplim2078 50% correct 👍🏾 Take in consideration that YHWH is NOT the only one in heaven. Just because kings in that highly illiterate area used 'we' doesn't mean that we are reading the "royal" 'we', didn't Y'suah ALWAYS talk about his 'father' (single)? The Asian Emperors never referred to themselves as 'we', that would be non logical from a culture who invented and/or used mathematics, philosophy, psychology, calculus, astrology, physics, theology, biology etc. It jumps throughout the entire Tanach from plural to single, no consistency in it!
Elohim is a plural of majesty it is like YOU, it doesn't mean Many GODS, if you are going to use a foreign language, it will be wise to consult their given meaning, not your own understanding.
I made a response to Mohamed Higgab and I went through. It's a plural and singular. It's the same as when we say "The skys" and "the depths" and "the waters" and "the winds" Theres a time in Exodus, when God sees Moses facES. It says in Genesis 9, Ham saw he nakednessES of Noah and went and told of it outside. It says in Ezekiel when theres a woman who became grown and could be married, she was at the Time for "loves/cheriches" theres one live but its loves.
@@philiplim2078 Well, that's what the monotheist apologists claim. But, the Bible amply testifies, albeit in muted tones, to the ongoing polytheism of the ancient Israelites. For instance: There's a lot of talk, by the winners who wrote our existing text, the monotheists, about how this and that king "did evil in the sight of the lord." In a lot of cases, it was because the king was deficient about taking down something called "Asherah poles". Scholars have reconstructed this as a goddess, Asherah, who was widely worshipped as Yahweh's consort. Not at all remarkable for the times. Even if you don't accept that, it was obvious that Yahweh had lots of competition for a very long time. The history of the kings of Israel consists of little else than the chronicle of that struggle. Solomon was a polytheist, or at least tolerated it, which means it continued well past the end of the northern kingdom. Many people in the Bible have names indicative of all kinds of gods besides Yahweh or Elohim. There's plenty of polytheism in the Bible (angles, are, in fact, demi-gods by any reasonable definition of the term, just for starters). So, whether you are right about "Elohim" or it is just an excuse invented by apologists, the plain fact is, there was lots of polytheism in ancient Israel. They just lost out over time, that's all. But the many echoes of polytheism that were not purged show that Elohim accurately reflects what many in Israel believed before the Babylonian captivity.
Everybody just want to go to heaven. Imagine if the bible didnt say that people who "behave" would go to heaven, nobody would believe that. Some religions say that there are virgins girls waiting on paradise hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahabanaha😂😂😂😂😂😉😉😉😂😉😉😉😉😂😉😂😂😂😂😉😂😂
Ha! This is actually something that Robert Alter noted. The Creation story of Genesis 2 was likely crafted to be comedic for ancient listeners-the idea of God making every known animal and going "Whoops, okay, so I guess a gazelle also isn't a suitable partner for man!" is wonderfully absurd.
@Donna Clark Not true! The moon orbits the earth. The sun illuminates half the moon at the maximum. The earth casts it’s shadow on the moon at times, occasionally blocking all the light from the sun. When I do not see the moon at night, neither does anyone else. The moon is fully in earth’s shadow. No one on earth can see it at night. Also, The times Some are seeing it during the day is not what the storybook says. This also disproves flat earth claims.
@Donna Clark Neither! The chicken evolved from it’s ancestors on the evolutionary tree! If you want to follow that line back far enough, It seems logical that some organism came first (before the first egg laying chicken ancestor evolved.) But I was not there and I am not an expert in Biology, so that question is best answered by someone who has seen and evaluated the evidence, like a Biologist!
@Donna Clark Little organisms divide and evolve over great time periods into larger organisms. Over millions of years, changes gradually occur: single celled organisms become multi-celled organisms and so on while other adaptations to their environments evolve. Eventually you have large enough organisms, along with many adaptations to their environments to evolve wings, egg laying capabilities, etc. (This is largely determined by their needs to survive in their environments over time). This is known as evolution by NATURAL selection. There is also evolution by HUMAN selection, which is why we have dog breeds, cows, corn large enough to eat, etc. The reason the Covid Delta variant is now an issue is because evolution occurs quicker in microscopic life. So, get vaccinated and take a basic Biology class or ask a Biologist if you have further questions! I don’t have the time or qualifications to teach you basic Biology, as your knowledge is obviously very limited or your brainwashing is getting in the way of logic and evidence.
@Donna Clark My last answer, since you lack the basics to ask intelligent questions. I don’t know. It depends on how their environment changes. If it changes to much, they may go extinct; as has been the fate of many species over the millennia! Bye now!

@@Sammie551 That is to clean out you who f41led the test.
Once, I went to read the bible out of curiosity. I started with the very very beginning, genesis. I didn't go very far due to the sheer absurdity of the story. I remember stopping after the story of a character who got drunk and fell asleep naked in a tent, then was found by one of his kids, and then somehow the kid was punished for finding him in that unflattering position that he put himself in. After that I lost quite a bit of respect for whoever bases their life decisions on this book.
@@aristola4116well that makes it even worse.
@@aristola4116listen all due respect for whatever you wanna believe, but if we're gonna be interpreting every single phrase we might as well not read anything. What damn joke, btw... Canaan already existed before Ham saw Noah's nakedness. And the book absolutely *never* says that Noah was with or had Sex with his wife.
Why would someone randomly add that he just got laid?
The book literally says he got drunk with wine until he got wasted, in his drunk Ness he got naked and then was seen by Canaan.
Nothing about sex or else.
I think you couldn't have described my experience better.
I had promised myself I'd listen to the Bible while working, just for sake of reading it at least once in my life and 2 hours ago I started listening to it (was raised catholic but didn't believe nor practiced it since very young, I had trouble believing anything).
And you just said exactly what happened to me, I just couldn't habdle the stupidity. It sound like a fantasy story written by a 9yo srsly.
After I seized to be offended by the realization of how I had just wasted 2 hours of my life, I realized that people back then were very ignorant and their vision of things came from not knowing. Ie: how God created the universe (completely earth centric as if the earth is the beginning of everything). Etc
It's such a waste of my time, there's no way I'm finishing it. There are tons of books that could actually teach me something or at least be fun... Star wars is waaay better fantasy.
@@aristola4116 why would "saw his father's nakedness" actually mean "have sex with his own mother"? If that's a euphemism, it's a terrible one. I don't believe you because that simply does not make sense. Unless we somehow have other examples of ancient literature where such a phrase means "having sex with your mother". But I highly doubt that, because in any other piece of literature, when a euphemism is used, first of all you can usually decipher what it means (but in that case it sounds completely nonsensical), and it always makes sense in context. But in this case it doesn't at all, because the next part of the story is that the drunk guy's other children come to cover him up because he was naked. How do you explain that? How does that relate to the son supposedly fucking his mother? It very much sounds like the passage was meant to be taken literally, because if we add in your euphemism the story becomes incoherent.
My friend, it sounds like your teacher told you "it's a euphemism" as an excuse to completely change the meaning of the story to make it make more sense to you so you wouldn't doubt the bible. Have you heard the phrase "thought-terminating cliché"? I encourage you to look out for those things. They are phrases that are designed to make you stop thinking for yourself when your logical thoughts take you away from the doctrine being imposed upon you. Phrases like "god works in mysterious ways". In your case, it sounds like "it's a euphemism" was one of those tactics used to make you stop questioning. And it's not right. You should be free to fully explore your own thoughts on any topic you want.
Edit: here is the story, for reference. It doesn't make more sense if we add in Noah's wife having sex with her son. In fact it makes much less sense. And Noah's wife was mentioned in other parts of the story. Surely, if your interpretation is right and the bible if the perfect word of god, then it would be understandable to all, and it would at least mention Noah's wife in the story so we would know she's involved.
Also, I did get something wrong. It's not even Noah's son who gets punished. It's his grandson who didn't do anything wrong. Do you really want to get your sense of justice from this book?
Genesis 9
New International Version
The Sons of Noah
18 The sons of Noah who came out of the ark were Shem, Ham and Japheth. (Ham was the father of Canaan.) 19 These were the three sons of Noah, and from them came the people who were scattered over the whole earth.
20 Noah, a man of the soil, proceeded to plant a vineyard. 21 When he drank some of its wine, he became drunk and lay uncovered inside his tent. 22 Ham, the father of Canaan, saw his father naked and told his two brothers outside. 23 But Shem and Japheth took a garment and laid it across their shoulders; then they walked in backward and covered their father’s naked body. Their faces were turned the other way so that they would not see their father naked.
24 When Noah awoke from his wine and found out what his youngest son had done to him, 25 he said,
“Cursed be Canaan!
The lowest of slaves
will he be to his brothers.”
26 He also said,
“Praise be to the Lord, the God of Shem!
May Canaan be the slave of Shem.
27 May God extend Japheth’s[b] territory;
may Japheth live in the tents of Shem,
and may Canaan be the slave of Japheth.”

We all have a very strong distorting bias regarding what we consider to be the normal range of human intelligence. No one can fathom what it is like to have an intellect substantially higher than their own. But it also works the other way around. None of us can imagine what it is like to inhabit the mind of someone with a significantly lower intelligence than our own. This is why both true intellectual disability and true genius can be extremely socially isolating.

What's the problem with that?
Would you open to the idea that God is timeless and He understands that the light is good before it's creation but wants to note how God sees the light? Which is good? If you wanted to convey that a timeless creator created something (the light) and that creator saw that light was good, how would you do it? Would you abruptly state all of the things God sees good in the beginning or would you disperse what God finds good as He creates them?

Nice to know so much about so many; or are you one of those shallow women?
ByJOB: Cause and effect isn't what you think it is. Creationism is the farthest thing from scientific. Creation science is an oxymoron, two words that literally mean opposite things. You may be too smart for what you think right now. Maybe you could do better and honor your own mind and life a little more?
If you wait one more billion years every lifeform can turn into every other lifeform. Compare that to God can do everything and think again about how science has a solution for everything.
The opening statement in the Bible, "In the Beginning" is loaded with tonnes of meaning. It owns up to a Wise creator, not like an abstract phrase like, "once upon a time," which is just a vogue imagination.
After reading the book of Genesis alone, sometimes I worry about our future as a species. The fact that there are people who literally believe this to be science and historical is mind boggling to me.

Incorrect. It did NOT take a process of 4 days to create the sun, moon and stars. Rather they were simply created on day 4. Just FYI
For an all powerful supremely intelligent being, he could as easily have chosen to create the whole universe in a single instance. The reason why God created in 6 days and rested on the seventh is to give the pattern of a 7 day week. That is the origin of our 7 day week in cultures all over the world!
Also a day is defined in Genesis as period of darkness (erev -could mean high entropy, disorder) and light (boker - could mean low entropy, order). Each period represent an input of information into the system.

You speak of "implied".That means you don't understand what is said. You speak of the sun as if day is a function of rising of the sun and night the absence of the sun contradicting yourself. If it is so how did scientists measure the age of the universe, when the big bang occurred and our solar system. The sun governed not made the day, living things produced after their kind. You are ridiculing the bible but not disproving it. The big bang and evolution theory is still a theory at the end of it all but you still BELIEVE it yet you look down on those that believe the bible story.
Point to be noted😋
“God saw that it was good” sounds something from a children’s picture book
True and surely an all knowing, all powerful God would have had no doubts that it would turn out to be good. Why would such a God have to wait until creation was done to decide it was good? It's almost as if God was employing trial an error.
You guys are childish by interpreting God's statement in a ridiculous way. It's a normal that he said, "its good." Because of this I know that God created everything as good originally. It's for us this was said and written. It shows that human being are responsible for making the planet earth to a degraded form. This statement is very significant, not childish at all.
@@rajiphilips5937 Should a God actually exist and the Bible be It's inerrant word, then that word should not be so ambiguous i.e. why do you interpret it so differently when it is clear that God had to wait until the implementation of creation before being able to determine it was good? Now if the Bible had said something along the lines "... God planned creation that was good so he implemented his plan and it was good", it would be more consistent.

As someone interested in the classification of living things, it is appalling to me that they imply that birds, fish, livestock, "creatures that move along the ground", and humans are different from animals. And anything that doesn't fit into any other category is apparently a "creature that moves along the ground", whatever that means. They also don't mention Fungi, Bacteria, Archaea, or Protista at all, and treat plants as if they are not living things. Another point: Angiosperms, or flowering plants, evolved in the Cretaceous period, long after other kinds of plants. Creation myths are infuriating.
Humans are different. Humans are the only creatures that argue be about creation in UA-cam comments.

You didn't mention the birth defects from interbreeding of Adam and Eve's children, grandchildren, great grandchildren, etc. Same problem happens after the great flood with only two of each animal.
and which one of them was Asian
Not defending the Bible but you probably would not have seen birth defects that early on. You only get birth defects when you have defective genes. If you have a good pool of genetics you can keep interbreeding. The problem with inbreeding is if one parent has a defective genes it has a very good chance of popping up in the offspring
Jessica Livingston so 2 people and the children of these two people can make a good genetic pool? For how before leprosy and extra toes take effect??
@Jubei Yang dude, I said I wasnt defending the Bible. I was just pointing out that you only have genetic problems with inbreeding if you have bad genetics. Lots of farmers and reptile breeders will inbreed their animals without problems and they actually use it to see if they have any hidden defects. If the parents don't have any defective genes then it is highly unlikely offspring will untill they develope a mutation. Inbreeding doesn't cause defects just because it's inbreeding. Inbreeding increases the rate at which a defective gene will pair up with another defective gene.
@@MissEasyPeasySleasy leprosy is a bacterial infection, not genetic so no inbreeding will not cause leprosy.
You missed a gold opportunity to points out that the Bible says that outer space is full of water. On the second day, when he created the “sky”, he did it by separating the waters of Earth from the waters of outer space, putting that “vault” (our atmosphere) between them. Outer space being full of water is kooky dukes.
Not really that kooky, even secular scientist believe there's a medium through which light and sound travel. They call it aether. It's the basis for the experiments behind the theory of relativity and of special relativity. Besides, when we breathe out on a cold day we can see the water in the air.
does no say outer space,,, there are trillions of pounds of water in the air, if there was not everything would die. Just saying.
@@meandepiphany Scientists don't believe in the luminiferous aether anymore. It was suspected once it was shown that light traveled as a wave (the double-slit experiment) and up to that point, all waves required some medium (e.g. sound travels through air, water, etc.). Christiaan Huygens suggested it to provide the 'medium' for light waves. It was basically a place-holder for something not yet understood. The Michaelson-Morley experiment in 1887 (considered perhaps the greatest null-result of all time) set out to detect the aether. Their experiment was far more sensitive than it needed to be in order to detect it ... but failed. Today it is now understood that there is no aether. But moreover, the experiment showed that light always travels at the same speed (in a vacuum) for all observers ... even if one source of light is stationary and another is moving. Earth's velocity as it travels around the Sun is roughly 30 km/sec. This means for part of the year we are moving 'toward' some stars at 30 km/sec and 6 months later we are moving 'away' from those same stars at 30 km/sec ... yet the measured speed of light from those stars (which should measure a 60 km/sec difference) always works out to the same speed. This had consequences regarding the nature of time -- which cannot flow at the same rate for everyone in all situations. That leads to Special Relativity which linked light to the other laws of mechanics and unifies space and time into 'spacetime' (one word for one thing) ... shortly followed by General Relativity which also linked in gravity.
Outer space is where the flood waters came from.
Afterwards the flood waters returned to outer space.
@@meandepiphany Which scientists are you talking about? Please come to 21st century. Not even the so called "dark matter" can be considered the "aether".
I asked the same question why God put the tree there if he didn't want want them to eat it
Also, god supposed to be all knowing, means he knew they were going to eat from it and he knew he was going to punish them and he knew he was going to drown almost everyone including babies, puppies and kittens.

Good question but noone cant answer that question all I can say overall the sun is associated with day and the moon is associated with night that's good enough for me ! ;)
The moon doesn't emit light. It reflects the sun's light. So would you call a mirror a light? No, because a mirror is not a light. The only "light" out there is the sun, which a deity would know but people didn't back then. (And the sun is the same exact thing as any other star, just much closer to us. It's not something separate or different. Yes, the moon is often seen during the day. As usual, reality isn't as cut and dried as portrayed in the bible. Religious holy books aren't the best place to go for actual, useful information about the real world. That's not their purpose, anyway.

@JesusChristianLivingToAllWhoBelieveOnHisName fairy stories designed to frighten children....How old are you ?
I took an Old Testament class and the teacher thought people combined a couple different creation stories to make genesis. A bunch of stories were being passed down orally and when they started writing they tried putting them together. It’s just a theory.
That theory is borne out by the manuscripts. There are several different versions of the stories from several sources, all combined into what became the book of Genesis: the Yahwist (Y/J), the Elohist (E), and the Priestly (P) versions of the written stories, plus others. Whoever put Genesis together simply wanted to preserve all the written versions of the "oral traditions" and had no concern for the contradictions the various versions had with each other, hence the two creation stories, the two conflicting sets of 10 commandments, etc.
Makes sense. Christianity stole a lot from those evil pagan religions, huh?
@@mykaelajones7780 do you have proof that the CHRISTIANS stole stories? Give it your best shot proving this.
I'm reading the NRSV and it comes with two creation stories. The first is quite straightforward and the alternative is the story of Adam and Even in the garden of Eden. I guess they included two of these different stories as there were many possible ones? I need to see where the alternative ends because Adam and Eve go on for some time. Perhaps just the eden part is alternative idk
A reasonable theory. The ancient Torah was a collection of oral tradition that was written down, and it was not & is not now intended to be taken literally. Once the early Christian church was elevated by Constantine, the church establishment set about codifying their disparate beliefs - and some sources were rejected. Then ppl were brought into the fold by adopting their pagan traditions. The Catholic Church & its offshoots now represent a general human culture, while the rejected traditions represent hidden information that only few can appreciate.

A toddler thinks about fairy tales the right way, for he hears the wonder in the world of the story. The adult, so proud and unlistening in his pretended sophistication, cannot see the wonder before his eyes. He can hear the machine but not the heart of the inventor. He can see how he can profit from the machine but not see what the inventor imagined when he made it. It's adults who think it's morally superior to make a promise and personally inconvenient to keep it. Toddlers like to win games. Adults like to win wars. Toddlers blame wrongdoers. Adults execute them. Toddlers laugh at the colors of nature. Adults chop them down and burn them because they're in the way. Toddlers laugh at strange animals. Adults hunt them to extinction.
However, you think that you are right about the Bible. You are not. You imagine the Bible as something that you merely want it to be, therefore you cannot see what it is. Read Genesis aloud about twenty times and really listen to it. Maybe the twentieth time you'll hear it.

It's astonishing that any modern-day person could read the Genesis creation myth and not instantly shrug it off as *ridiculous in the extreme.*
And since there *never was* a Garden of Eden/Adam and Eve - and therefore no "fall of man/original sin" and subsequent need of redemption/a "savior" - the entire raison d'etre and foundation of all three Abrahamic religions utterly disintegrates into *meaningless absurdity.*
Just one glaring example: In the Genesis creation myth, the sun wasn't created until the 4th day - so how were they measuring "days"?
If some imaginary, man-invented god couldn't even get his own creation project correct, then why should anyone believe or trust anything else "he" (supposedly) proclaims or does?

@Winston Grettum Evolution is the theory of how living organisms change, not how life originated, abiogenesis is the hypothesis of how life arose through complex chemical processes in complex environments. Evolution is not new, its been known that populations speciate over vast time, most notably when we domesticated wild species, they change through selective breeding, then the mechanism for how nature does it was discovered by Charles Darwin in 1859, natural selection and then it was debated thoroughly and mountains upon mountains of evidence have come since, including an entirely new field of science, genetics, with the discovery of DNA, which is the strongest field of evidence for evolution, it provides the heritability mechanism and so much more like Endogenous Retro viral DNA insertions in the DNA which shows how closely related species are and is definitive evidence for common ancestry.
@Winston Grettum Yes an amazing programmer but also a very flawed 1, tons of copies of the same genes, lots of non coding dna, tons of endoginous retro viral dna in there and genes are a tangled mess etc and the way the dna has been modified through a grand process of reproduction and mass death, countless organism don't make it to birth, countless organisms don't make it to reproductive age, the struggle for survival is brutal, if i was to attribute this process to a conscious being, i would call them cruel and wasteful, yes it can produce astonishing complexity but the vast amount of death and suffering the process produces is unfathomable.

Thinking that you were a "lost soul" and you don't know what you're talking about. Or, mostly, I said that to myself. In reality, the first seed of doubt was planted. I think it took me about 2 years from then to start investigating. I didn't really want to up until then because I didn't want to listen to proof that I was wrong. I finally let myself investigate though and I am so proud to call myself an atheist now. It took me a little over about three years from those first couple of minutes of your video to the moment where I finally felt completely free from especially the fear of hell that kept persisting.

And don't worry, I'm just an atheist ;) not a devil believer or worshipper. To believe in the devil that you're describing, you pretty much need to be a theist which I'm not.
Anyway, best of luck to you, hope you'll be able to put aside your fears as well someday.
@TEE PERO I once heard someone make the following analogy: I feel like, all my life, I've been sitting behind a window.. watching a beautiful landscape but only seeing it from my limited point of view. Becoming an atheist is like walking out of a door next to that window that I didnt even know was there. And once you're outside, you see that the landscape was just a painting.. it wasn't real even if it looked beautiful. Now I'm outside, smelling the grass and the world is a million times more beautiful than it was from behind the window. And no one could ever convince you to go back. Because just like a magic trick, once you see it, you can never go back to ignorance. I can never be a believer again... I saw past the magic trick, it was just a lie.
It's so much better on the outside :) come, join us ;)
@@jeffrutar5370 woah there, at first reading I missed this one -“if you turn to atheist/devil believer etc,”
Hang on there buddy. Being an atheist and not believing in god pretty much goes hand in hand with also not believing in the devil. Atheist and devil worshiper are NOT the same thing. In the same way, atheists also do not believe in angels (though we do believe in angles, they are cool!), either good ones or bad ones.
Obviously, ignorance is the absence of knowledge and vice versa.
Yes the bible is full of ignorance.
@@jean-louispech4921 why is that? And examples
@@lerozalico4753 Why? Because the stories are written with the knowledge at the time of writing, not inspired by some higher existence. Example: line 1: let there be light (where does the light come from?), two days later (what's a day, if the sun is not moving through the sky?) sun (finally, a star, source of light!, moon (not a source of light but a reflector of the sun) and stars (not 'holes in the sky, but just a lot more stars like our sun) are created.
If the bible really was inspired by the Creator, how can there be so many errors in one page? If this section was written by 'just a guy like you and me' it makes perfectly sense - in that time.
If you go though the books you can find this type of inconsistencies and lack of knowledge in almost every single page. The reasonable explanation is: 'it's just phantasy'.
Note: the bible being made up and written by humans, not inspired by some higher power does not proof that God does not, or cannot exist, only that the bible is not written by his instructions.
@@AdrieKooijman was there a light before sun?
Or was there called light besides sun?
Is the sun was only the source of light?
@@lerozalico4753 according to the big bang theory there was light before the stars formed. So, if you really want to talk things straight the Bible is right. Sort of.
So who is the narrator of "in the beginning". Who was the guy with a clipboard and pen writing down what god said and did during the creation?
We don't know but as the writing down was ,likely when the Israelites trecked across to the Palestinian area to settle and there they started to write down their stories. So the author or authors with redactors created a single document out of a number but none of them ever was present when the creation events happened. We are supposed to accept that god inspired them to write sown the story but given how quiet this god is, it is far more likely to be legends they picked up from Babylon and surrounding tribes.

Undermining of science is evil
Bible is a fanci fake stories..
Evil God Of Bible.
Here's a list of bible verses that make one wonder just what sort of God.
Christians give their lives to in sincere patronage to what they call 'Holy'.
If Anyone who claims to admire and worship the biblical God has either abandoned all sense of moral judgment or has never actually read the Old Testament.
Since most believers are good people, I prefer to assume the latter. I think the world would be a much better place if people would actually read the book. A.A. Milne, author of Winnie the Pooh, said:
"The Old Testament is responsible for more atheism, agnosticism, disbelief - call it what you will - than any book ever written; it has emptied more churches than all the counterattractions of cinema, motor bicycle and golf course."
Before we can cure an illness we have to diagnose it.
17 “Do not think that I have come to abolish the Law or the Prophets; I have not come to abolish them but to fulfill them.
(No one can Abolish Any laws of Bible old Testament or any kind)
Matthew 5:17
"So the assembly sent 12,000 of their best warriors to Jabesh-gilead with orders to kill everyone there, including women and children.
“This is what you are to do,” they said. “Completely destroy[a] all the males and every woman who is not a virgin.” Among the residents of Jabesh-gilead they found 400 young virgins who had never slept with a man, and they brought them to the camp at Shiloh in the land of Canaan."
Judges 21:10-24
NLT-
Obviously these women were repeatedly raped. These sick bastards killed and raped an entire town and then wanted more virgins, so they hid beside the road to kidnap and rape some more. How can anyone see this as anything but evil?
10. God destroys a good family 'for no reason.'
God made a bet with Satan that Job, a good and blameless man, would remain faithful even if he killed his children and ruined his life. Here we see God indicting himself for the crime, openly confessing that he destroyed a family "for no reason."
"The Lord said to Satan, 'Have you considered my servant Job? There is no one like him on the Earth, a blameless and upright man who fears God and turns away from evil. He still persists in his integrity, although you incited me against him, to destroy him for no reason.' " (Job 2:3 New Revised Standard Bible)
9. God destroys the fetuses of those who do not worship him.
This is not the only feticidal passage in the bible, but it is the worst:
"You shall acknowledge no God but me. . . . You are destroyed, Israel. . . . The people of Samaria must bear their guilt, because they have rebelled against their God. They will fall by the sword; their little ones will be dashed to the ground, their pregnant women ripped open." (Hosea 13:4, 9, 16 New International Version)
8. God approves the massacre of a peaceful people so one of his tribes could have a place to live.
Most believers think God destroyed the Canaanites because they were depraved and immoral, although the bible does not make that claim. They were killed - and labeled "evil" and "wicked" - simply because they did not worship him. Here is a group of people who did nothing wrong. They were "at peace and secure," but they had to be eliminated.
"And in those days the tribe of the Danites was seeking a place of their own where they might settle, because they had not yet come into an inheritance among the tribes of Israel. . . . Then they said to [the priest], 'Please inquire of God to learn whether our journey will be successful.' The priest answered them, 'Go in peace. Your journey has the Lord's approval.' . . . Then they took what Micah had made, and his priest, and went on to Laish, against a people at peace and secure. They attacked them with the sword and burned down their city. . . . The Danites rebuilt the city and settled there." (Judges 18:1-28 NIV)
The Canaanites were not the evildoers. The Israelites were the invaders!
7. Babies are slaughtered and wives raped.
The murderous Old Testament deity deemed human life to be worthless, placing his own megalomaniacal glory above human values. Here is one of the worst examples:
"See, the day of the Lord is coming - a cruel day, with wrath and fierce anger. . . . I will put an end to the arrogance of the haughty. . . . Their infants will be dashed to pieces before their eyes; their houses will be looted and their wives violated." (Isaiah 13:9-16 NIV)
6. A mixed-race couple is murdered by a godly priest to keep God's people pure.
The righteous priest Phinehas murdered a loving couple for the crime of miscegenation. Then he was praised by God and rewarded for the hate crime with a perpetual priesthood for keeping the nation racially pure.
"Just then one of the Israelites came and brought a Midianite woman into his family, in the sight of Moses and in the sight of the whole congregation of the Israelites. When Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, saw it, he got up and left the congregation. Taking a spear in his hand, he went after the Israelite man into the tent, and pierced the two of them, the Israelite and the woman, through the belly. So the plague was stopped among the people of Israel. The Lord spoke to Moses, saying: 'Phinehas, son of Eleazar, son of Aaron the priest, has turned back my wrath from the Israelites by manifesting such zeal among them on my behalf that in my jealousy I did not consume the Israelites. Therefore say, "I hereby grant him my covenant of peace. It shall be for him and for his descendants after him a covenant of perpetual priesthood, because he was zealous for his God, and made atonement for the Israelites.' '" (Numbers 25:6-13 NRSV)
5. A daughter is burned as an acceptable sacrifice to God.
General Jephthah made a vow with God in order to defeat the enemy. When Jephthah won the war, God received his hundred pounds of flesh.
"And Jephthah made a vow to the Lord: 'If you give the Ammonites into my hands, whatever comes out of the door of my house to meet me when I return in triumph from the Ammonites will be the Lord's, and I will sacrifice it as a burnt offering.' . . . When Jephthah returned to his home in Mizpah, who should come out to meet him but his daughter, dancing to the sound of timbrels! . . . After the two months, she returned to her father, and he did to her as he had vowed." (Judges 11:30-39 NIV)
After burning his daughter, Jephthah was rewarded with a prestigious judgeship and was later buried with honor.
4. The cannibalistic God makes people eat human flesh.
There are nine passages in the Old Testament where God makes cannibalistic threats. Here is the worst one:
"And if ye will not for all this hearken unto me, but walk contrary unto me; Then I will walk contrary unto you also in fury; and I, even I, will chastise you seven times for your sins. And ye shall eat the flesh of your sons, and the flesh of your daughters shall ye eat." (Leviticus 26:27-29 King James Version)
3. God threatens rape, then takes credit for it.
This passage was new to me, and it blew me away. I guess I had only read it before in the King James Version, where the sexual molestation is not obvious. Here it is in the NRSV, where the Israelites were asking why they were being attacked by the Babylonians:
"Hear and give ear; do not be haughty, for the Lord has spoken. . . . And if you say in your heart, 'Why have these things come upon me?' it is for the greatness of your iniquity that your skirts are lifted up, and you are violated . . . because you have forgotten me and trusted in lies. I myself will lift up your skirts over your face, and your shame will be seen." (Jeremiah 13:15-26 NRSV)
"Skirts lifted up" is sexual assault. "Violate" is rape. The King James Version has the quaint "heels made bare," which obscures the sexual assault.
Notice that the "iniquity" for which they were being raped was not immorality or depravity; it was simply because "you have forgotten me."
2. God threatens sexual molestation.
The Lord will harass attractive uppity women by exposing their private parts.
"Moreover the Lord saith, Because the daughters of Zion are haughty, and walk with stretched forth necks and wanton eyes, walking and mincing as they go, and making a tinkling with their feet: Therefore the Lord will smite with a scab the crown of the head of the daughters of Zion, and the Lord will discover their secret parts." (Isaiah 3:16-17 KJV)
The New International Version covers up this embarrassing passage with "make their scalps bald" in place of "discover their secret parts [Hebrew: poth = vagina]." Other translations are more honest: The Orthodox Jewish Bible has "lay bare their nakedness,"
Amplified Bible "stripped naked," Complete Jewish Bible "expose their private parts," Common English Version "uncover their private parts," and Living Bible "expose their nakedness for all to see." Even if "daughters of Zion" is a metaphor for Israel, it is a metaphor of sexual assault.
1. God wants you to be happy to dash babies against the rocks.
I have always thought this was the worst verse in the bible, and my opinion remains unchanged.
"O daughter Babylon, you devastator! Happy shall they be who pay you back what you have done to us! Happy shall they be who take your little ones and dash them against the rock!"(Psalm 137:8-9 NRSV)
God was not merely saying that regrettable collateral damage might occur during wartime. He said believers should be happy - some translations say "blessed" - to kill innocent babies of those who are keeping you from worshipping your own god.

@@kennethhawkins5943 I disagree the Bible was written by the creator who used men of God , God used them as a tool to write what he wants us to know it took approximately 1500 yrs to write.

This guy making these videos is spewing garbage if he would actually read it he’d know JESUS was around from the very beginning because HE is GOD. The men who wrote the Bible knew the earth was round you’ll find that in Isaiah there is over 2000 prophecies in the Bible which about 3/4 or more came true just because GOD didn’t name every tree bush or planet doesn’t take away the fact HE wrote it . Science,biology, and archaeology prove the Bible true ! This guy that’s trying to mock GOD needs to read and study do some research instead of flipping thru it like a magazine at a dentist
New viewer here. Someone on another YT channel suggested that I view this video. On that video I commented - "Considering Genesis, I've been wondering who it was who witnessed God creating stuff? There were no humans for many of the "first days". And even when Adam and Eve came along did they instantly know how to write down what happened to them? My evangelical Christian sister could not answer me about how anyone knew what happened "in the beginning". I made sure she didn't use the "inspired word of God" thing where God supposedly tells someone what they should write down when they weren't actually there to see it. Anyone could say they were inspired and write any fantastic story they wanted. Thing is, Genesis is just the product of someone's imagination, or a number of someones' imaginations.

The problem with Abrahamic religions not only Christianity is that they put you in a little box and they suppress your instincts, your creativity for looking for answers and your critical thinking and if you are bold enough to question they will tell you're listening to the devil's lies. They control people by fear , punishment and the killing of people's personality to manifest. I am no atheist but I think religions have nothing to do with God. They have to do with tribal, cultural and local ceremonials and traditions.
@@ketsune23 and not to mention how the notion that nothing matters because the point of your life is to go to heaven so dont worry about what is going on around you or environmental problems or just send prayers to people in disasters truly is a damaging way of thinking.

In the beginning, sentient apes created stories about how the world came to be, in an attempt to explain things they had no way of understanding.
These stories were very silly, and when other sentient apes laughed at them, they would bash their heads in with rocks.
Over the millenia, the stories changed, but the head bashing continued.
This is really funny, but also frighteningly accurate
Exactly, stories were written with no idea that one day science would unravel many of these notions. But human self-importance is highly addictive and contagious, God creates man in Gods image. Odd that in what respect could humans be considered 'god' like .hairy, belligerent, jealous?.. of course if God were created in mans image it makes more sense. What a ruse, we are in charge, the rules we give you were given to us by God, and we interpret the rules on your behalf, that you must obey or you might be punished. Like a masterclass - a psychologist would point to a deep inner need to control environment and other people, which certainly is a human trait in some. Oddly there are a variety of creation stories, many are similar, some in Asia are quite different - to western ears they seem odd, elephants and funny creatures - but no more odd than people being turned into salt pillars, being thrown up by a whale or removing the obstacle of a large river. The problem with one group writing an account about their own history is that it could objectively be described as propaganda. Why are you special God said so ... which is comforting to believe and difficult to argue with as they really do believe they are 'special' because ... well God said so ...

Chritianity debunked using science & history
As per Bible the creation started in 4004 BC at 9 AM on 23rdOctober. Means creation took place nearly 6000 year ago.
Bible said earth is flat , sun moving around the , But Galileo said that the earth is round and circles the sun , and the church blinded him , so that he can never look into another telescope.
Also punish copernicus .
Undermining of science is evil

@@bengagliardo1080 so your imaginary friend tells you your bad deeds are okay and thats justification for you not to feel bad for them ? Sad and scary and why so many people use religion as justification for horrific acts.

This is an amazing idea, are you going to do this for the whole Bible?

Yeah im hoping 😂
That would be a marathon. It would take years to go through all the toxic crud in that book!
And the Quran as well
@Winston Grettum Oh he does, that's why he's atheist.
How did you manage to trim this down to just 15 minutes
What was god doing before he created earth?
Getting bored I guess.
"Preparing hell for people like you!"
I believe that was retort by some theologian when an atheist asked him that question in a formal debate, one or two hundred years ago.
The reply from the other side would probably be ... jerking off. What else would a male do if he was alone forever?
@Winston Grettum "his desire that all creation could share his happiness
"
Except for the majority of people who suffer eternal torment in a lake of fire. Damn, god's a dick.
He had a wife Asherah, 70 sons, and a whole host of angels to keep him entertained.
@Winston Grettum There is this ... "10 And the devil who had deceived them was thrown into the lake of fire and sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet were, and they will be tormented day and night forever and ever. ... And the dead were judged according to their works, as recorded in the books. 13 And the sea gave up the dead that were in it, Death and Hades gave up the dead that were in them, and all were judged according to what they had done. 14 Then Death and Hades were thrown into the lake of fire. This is the second death, the lake of fire; 15 and anyone whose name was not found written in the book of life was thrown into the lake of fire. ... 7 Those who conquer will inherit these things, and I will be their God and they will be my children. 8 But as for the cowardly, the faithless,[e] the polluted, the murderers, the fornicators, the sorcerers, the idolaters, and all liars, their place will be in the lake that burns with fire and sulfur, which is the second death.”
(Revelation 20:10-21:7-8)
Those who take Revelation as foretelling the future and being as literal as possible, do hold that there is a lake of fire where all those people who are not "saved" will suffer eternal torment .. as the bible indicates.
Did you know that in Genesis 1 you can see time, space and matter? 1:1 in the beginning (time) God created the heavens (space) and the earth (matter)
This is the most terrible illustrations
Heaven his domain and not a physical place. And stars and moon are made out of matter.
Heck even many planets not just Earth.
In Hebrew it's written: in the beginning gods created etc. Right from the start: multiple gods/ polytheism.
The word is "Elohim", the plural form of god. When afixed with a definite article, usually mean God, and without, is a general terms for spiritual beings. The old testament is a Jewish literature and best understood with a Jewish mindset. It's not unusual that kings and sovereigns to address themselves when individually with the royal "we".
@@philiplim2078 50% correct 👍🏾
Take in consideration that YHWH is NOT the only one in heaven.
Just because kings in that highly illiterate area used 'we' doesn't mean that we are reading the "royal" 'we', didn't Y'suah ALWAYS talk about his 'father' (single)? The Asian Emperors never referred to themselves as 'we', that would be non logical from a culture who invented and/or used mathematics, philosophy, psychology, calculus, astrology, physics, theology, biology etc.
It jumps throughout the entire Tanach from plural to single, no consistency in it!
Elohim is a plural of majesty it is like YOU, it doesn't mean Many GODS, if you are going to use a foreign language, it will be wise to consult their given meaning, not your own understanding.
I made a response to Mohamed Higgab and I went through. It's a plural and singular. It's the same as when we say "The skys" and "the depths" and "the waters" and "the winds" Theres a time in Exodus, when God sees Moses facES. It says in Genesis 9, Ham saw he nakednessES of Noah and went and told of it outside. It says in Ezekiel when theres a woman who became grown and could be married, she was at the Time for "loves/cheriches" theres one live but its loves.
@@philiplim2078 Well, that's what the monotheist apologists claim. But, the Bible amply testifies, albeit in muted tones, to the ongoing polytheism of the ancient Israelites. For instance: There's a lot of talk, by the winners who wrote our existing text, the monotheists, about how this and that king "did evil in the sight of the lord." In a lot of cases, it was because the king was deficient about taking down something called "Asherah poles". Scholars have reconstructed this as a goddess, Asherah, who was widely worshipped as Yahweh's consort. Not at all remarkable for the times. Even if you don't accept that, it was obvious that Yahweh had lots of competition for a very long time. The history of the kings of Israel consists of little else than the chronicle of that struggle.
Solomon was a polytheist, or at least tolerated it, which means it continued well past the end of the northern kingdom. Many people in the Bible have names indicative of all kinds of gods besides Yahweh or Elohim.
There's plenty of polytheism in the Bible (angles, are, in fact, demi-gods by any reasonable definition of the term, just for starters).
So, whether you are right about "Elohim" or it is just an excuse invented by apologists, the plain fact is, there was lots of polytheism in ancient Israel. They just lost out over time, that's all. But the many echoes of polytheism that were not purged show that Elohim accurately reflects what many in Israel believed before the Babylonian captivity.
Everybody just want to go to heaven. Imagine if the bible didnt say that people who "behave" would go to heaven, nobody would believe that. Some religions say that there are virgins girls waiting on paradise hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahabanaha😂😂😂😂😂😉😉😉😂😉😉😉😉😂😉😂😂😂😂😉😂😂
But afterwards they wouldnt be virgins anymore...I mean, that's not the only weird thing they would believe in tho
>Imagine if the bible didnt say that people who "behave" would go to heaven, nobody would believe that
wtf is your point
I've never understood Genesis, and I used to read the Bible when I was a boy.
When I was a boy, I discovered the bible was full of toxic shit.
Can’t wait for chapter two, I wanna hear about how Adam was expected to find a mate among the animals.

@SigmaTauri2 probably got boring after the sixth go around
He settled for a very pretty Siberian husky and lived happily ever after.
Ha! This is actually something that Robert Alter noted. The Creation story of Genesis 2 was likely crafted to be comedic for ancient listeners-the idea of God making every known animal and going "Whoops, okay, so I guess a gazelle also isn't a suitable partner for man!" is wonderfully absurd.
Also, the moon does not rule the night! I have seen it during the day; and do not see it at night several times a month!!

@Donna Clark
Not true! The moon orbits the earth. The sun illuminates half the moon at the maximum. The earth casts it’s shadow on the moon at times, occasionally blocking all the light from the sun. When I do not see the moon at night, neither does anyone else. The moon is fully in earth’s shadow. No one on earth can see it at night.
Also, The times Some are seeing it during the day is not what the storybook says. This also disproves flat earth claims.
@Donna Clark
Not true! When it is in the shadow of the earth there is no reflected sunlight to be seen. The moon only reflects sun light.
@Donna Clark
Neither! The chicken evolved from it’s ancestors on the evolutionary tree! If you want to follow that line back far enough, It seems logical that some organism came first (before the first egg laying chicken ancestor evolved.) But I was not there and I am not an expert in Biology, so that question is best answered by someone who has seen and evaluated the evidence, like a Biologist!
@Donna Clark
Little organisms divide and evolve over great time periods into larger organisms. Over millions of years, changes gradually occur: single celled organisms become multi-celled organisms and so on while other adaptations to their environments evolve. Eventually you have large enough organisms, along with many adaptations to their environments to evolve wings, egg laying capabilities, etc. (This is largely determined by their needs to survive in their environments over time). This is known as evolution by NATURAL selection. There is also evolution by HUMAN selection, which is why we have dog breeds, cows, corn large enough to eat, etc.
The reason the Covid Delta variant is now an issue is because evolution occurs quicker in microscopic life. So, get vaccinated and take a basic Biology class or ask a Biologist if you have further questions!
I don’t have the time or qualifications to teach you basic Biology, as your knowledge is obviously very limited or your brainwashing is getting in the way of logic and evidence.
@Donna Clark
My last answer, since you lack the basics to ask intelligent questions. I don’t know. It depends on how their environment changes. If it changes to much, they may go extinct; as has been the fate of many species over the millennia! Bye now!
