The KJV pointedly depicts god promising that, " . . . in the day that thou eatest thereof thou shalt surely die." The apologists' inevitable response is a lot of hand-waving hemming and hawing with, "Well, god didn't actually mean they'd drop dead ON THAT VERY DAY exactly, because sometimes the bible authors used the term "day" to denote some other time frame completely, either in their ineffable wisdom or according to god's explicit dictation or somesuch, don't you know? See, what you need to understand is, that what god actually meant is that starting on that day GOING FORWARD, man would commence the process that would inevitably conclude with the cessation of his life on some undefined day in the far future, so that his earthly demise only really exists in this context as some divinely vague eventuality." So, it's more like "the long slow goodbye smite of god", such that it could almost seem to be virtually unrelated to any long forgotten act of biting into some random piece of fruit that just happened to occur several centuries earlier.

Armin's razor sharp logic, Forrest's biological knowledge and well-spoken wit, and Seth's empathetic viewpoint and experience on the ground with what theists actually believe. This combination allows for the best responses and counter arguments to basically anything the callers can throw at them. I just really didn't expect r*pe apologia from Mikael at the end there....that was really gross and he is a very deluded and indoctrinated individual. I do not like that man at all. Even if she said "ok", that's still coercion and sexual assault. What, is she gonna say no to god and his messenger? Absolutely disgusting, and actually a great example of how even when "consent" is given, these power imbalances can still lead to r*pe. Sorry, but it made me sick to my actual stomach when that guy told Forrest "thanks for acknowledging that you were wrong" when he will not acknowledge that he is apologizing for actual atrocities, and will now walk away more confident that he's right. It's a joke to him. I'm glad he will never have to experience anything like that. I can't get out of my head how awful and immoral some Christians can be under the guise of peace and caring and forgiveness. It's like Forrest always says, and it makes perfect sense... "Jesus loves you" is an awful, mean, evil and horrible phrase because of what it implies.

Caller RJ from CO. Says that death was not a thing before "sin". Well buddy, god made us to die. How do I know this? Genesis 3:22-24 Then the Lord God said, “Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil; and now, he might stretch out his hand, and take also from the tree of life, and eat, and live forever”- therefore the Lord God sent him out from the garden of Eden. In other words, man would live forever ONLY if thy had access to the tree of life. This means that man was mortal. Also god cast them out the garden because man became like god. It would be nice if Christians would read their own book instead of the cherry picked apologetics that their pastors tell them on Sunday.

"...But He loves you" that's what first came into my mind when I saw forest speaking 3:11

I remember reading the Bible so I could understand the god I loved better and every few chapters was a kick in the guts. I love how Seth makes us think of holding this god to our own moral standard.

As a physics professor that's a prior Marine, RJ is why I don't tell anyone I was in the military especially as infantry. It's embarrassing. So much so I renounced my citizenship and moved all across the world.

RJ: If he made Adam and Eve ignorant of evil, then they didn't make a choice. If you have no experience with consequencea and repurcussions, then you don't know what even doing something when someone tells you not to. And he made us this way and he knows that he made us this way. It's not just bad planning, if he's gonna punish all of us after them, it's a morally bad thing to do. Reprehensible, dude.

Teeny tiny point, but: Lepidoptera (moths and butterflies) are 90% wing. They’re /super/ light and /super/ small. Their cost for being able to fly is that they are super easy prey that are easy to swallow; but they’re fast. Their flight patterns are evasive and their endurance is pretty spectacular. But again, flight costs them something.

Don’t be a fool! These 2 hosts are fools (atheists) and their less-than-worthless, asinine, lost & clueless religious cult of atheism is INFAMOUS the world over for having ZERO ANSWERS. No atheist has a RATIONAL/POSSIBLE, step-by-step atheist explanation for reality. That's because there isn't one. THESE GUYS ADMIT THAT THEY HAVE NO ANSWERS!!! The fact remains that along w/ DYING/FINITE space/matter/energy, TIME had a cause. The logical conclusion (when we follow the evidence) is that such a cause is TIMELESS. And if you're TIMELESS, do you have a beginning or end? No. We call that cause "OUR INFINITE, SUPERNATURAL GOD," who by definition is TIMELESS, CHANGELESS, BEGINNINGLESS, SPACELESS, IMMATERIAL and ENORMOUSLY POWERFUL. These topics are the most important topics known; thus, EVERYONE should have a vast understanding of the facts that frame the truth of these topics and not be so content to gulp down the false propaganda of channels such as this one. THESE GUYS ADMIT THAT THEY HAVE NO ANSWERS!!!

It’s a bad idea to ask where your tithing money is specifically going and what it’s going to be used for.

Pastor Joel Osteen Lakewood Church Houston's megachurch burglarized of $600K Thieves took $200K in cash and $400K in checks from safe. A church employee and an off-duty sheriff's deputy working security discovered the money was missing. The cash, checks and envelopes containing written credit card information, and it is limited only to those funds contributed in the church services on Saturday, March 8 and Sunday, March 9, 2014 7 years later Plumber discovers money, checks in wall of Joel Osteen’s Lakewood Church years after $600K burglary The 500 envelopes full of cash and checks were found behind a loose toilet as workers moved insulation out of the wall Nov. 10, 2021. Plumber who found money stashed in Joel Osteen's church gets $20K reward from Crime Stoppers By Miya Shay KTRK 7 abc Tuesday, December 7, 2021 At the time of the theft, Lakewood Church gave Crime Stoppers $20,000 to offer as a potential reward for information in the case. By 2016, Lakewood decided to shift that supplemental reward into a charitable donation to Crime Stoppers of Houston in support of its ongoing public safety work in Houston and beyond. On Friday, as more pieces of this case came together, Crime Stoppers CEO Rania Mankarious discussed the possibility of the organization gifting $20,000, the amount originally given to Crime Stoppers by Lakewood, to the "Good Samaritan" plumber who they say made the discovery and turned in the money. On Tuesday, Mankarious received the approval to move forward with the gift. "Crime Stoppers of Houston is a public safety organization that thrives on the public safety of all communities. We believe that it takes all of us, working together, to keep Houston safe and thriving. In 2014, Lakewood Church gave us $20,000 to work on this case. In 2016, they chose to gift us those funds for operations. Today, we are gifting that same about of money to this Good Samaritan and wishing he and his family a wonderful holiday season," said Mankarious. The church is not commenting further, but previously said they are cooperating with the theft investigation. Houston police say the cash, checks and money orders were inventoried and then left at Lakewood. The man who made this all public is known only as Justin, a plumber. Back in 2014, the church released a statement in part saying, "The funds were fully insured, and we are working with our insurance company to restore the stolen funds to the church." kabc logo
