It is actually somewhat worse than that. It was the Tree of the Knowledge of Good and Evil. So until they partook of the fruit of this tree they could have had absolutely NO conception of right or wrong, good and evil, etc, or the implications of or surrounding the act. And so couldn't actually reasonably be convicted of the "crime" if they had no idea whatsoever. We apparently are better than this deity. We would never imagine or think to blame a child, or someone incapable of the forethought required and an understanding of thier responsibilities and consequences. Seriously. How does an educated, thinking, feeling, empathetic, reasonable adult NOT see this rather large problem with one of the absolute fundamental aspects of thier whole deal. How reasonably COULD Adam and Eve be justly "convicted"? Therefore the whole fall idea is made morally/ethically bankrupt, instead simply being an appeal to power. Leaving the deity no better than a tyrant, "I'm in charge, I arbitrarily decide and make the rules". But of course it is EVEN worse. We KNOW Adam and Eve never actually existed in the first place. hence NO fall ever happened, and thus,no need of an atonement or saviour figure.

The bible is an attempt to explain divine law in a reverse manner, a book of "should not" if you like. the stoics of the time agreed that law had to have a rational side and an irrational side, human positive law on its own is not tailored to the individual nor the situation, therefore, rendering it unworthy, wereas divine positive law is tailored to the individual and the situation so both work in a juxtaposed manner, The first of the ten commandment's is to remind you that divine natural law came before human positive law, law is located by the will. thanks for the question.

Creationism is scientific though, and can therefore be tested, and has failed miserably.

The serpent is the tempter, so god allows something unholy to be in his "holy" creation. Thus he enables sin and allows temptation. If everything was perfect and adam communed with god, there was peaceful unity. Why did the woman go screw it up by biting the apple? It seems fitting in a sexist way to make eve sin first. Women were lower class in those days. God knew what he was up to by putting a tree. Being omniscient ya know, ...right?!! So he played a direct role in his own creation messing up.Why would he allow the opposite of his holyness to infect his own creation? sin is a construct by god. Even while I was a christian I could not reconcile the god of the bible as something worth believing. He sounded like a petty, petulant, vengeful, egotistical, blood thirsty, angry, malevolent being.

I studied religion from the day I started college to today, so well over 3 decades and during that time I learned that all religions plagiarized from each other. Everyone stole something from another religion and claimed they are the one true religion. Want examples? 1. The great flood - wasn't originally a Christian belief, it came from the Epic of Gilgamesh. Every detail down to the size were stolen from the Epic. 2. Book of Proverbs - Maybe we should really call it what it is, Egyptian Instruction of Amenemope. Though there are still some that might argue this, too many of the proverbs are identical. 3. Garden of Eden - The Persian scriptures speak of a story about how Ormuzd created the world and 2 humans in 6 days and then rested on the 7th. Oh, and the names of the humans were Adama and Evah. They only predate the first bible scriptures by about 300 years since they were made in 10th BC. 4. Angel's and Demons - again the Persians, we'll refer to them as Zoroastrianism were the first to believe in angels and demons, the idea of Satan and the battle between good and evil. They also refer to their prophet Zarathustra as being surrounded by a halo of light...sound familiar? 5. The Trinity - Where does the word trinity come from? Not Matthew 28:19. Judaism is all about monotheism but Catholicism leans towards the idea of a trinity. Would it surprise you to know it likely came from Egyptian mythology with Amun, Re, and Ptah? Or maybe Ishtar, Baal, and Tammuz of Babylonian mythology. Maybe Anu, Enlil and Ea of the Sumerian Mythology. The concept was not original clearly. 6. The Canaanites The bible described the Israelites having destroyed them, yet if you look at Psalms 29, it's so similar to Ulgaritic (the language of the Canaanites) that we have to consider that the Israelites are in fact one in the same. 7. Heaven and Hell - Remember Zoroastrianism (Persians), well, it was them that first spoke of a heaven and hell. It was the Babylonians that spoke of a resurrection and judgment. It was the Persians who coined the word paradise with Mithraism and it was the Norse religion that coined the word Hel and gave the Christians the idea of an afterlife due to their pagan myth. I already pointed out that Sheol means place of dead, but Hades was greek for underworld. 8. Isaiah - the Gathas of Zarathushtra Yasna (Sacred texts of the Zoroastrians) can be attributed to the influence here. Zoroastrianism basically was copied throughout the old testament. Yasna 44.3 :4-5 to Isaiah 40:26. Or maybe we look at Yasna 44.4:1-3 compared to Isaiah 40:12. the list goes on and on. 9. Aspects of the messiah - the pagan aspects of the rituals surrounding Christian celebrations can easily be explained by the fact that these rituals were intended to replace pagan practices, the similarities in philosophy can only be explained through external influence. Consider that the teachings of jesus and the teachings of Buddha, Mithras, and Zarathustra are oddly similar. 10. The Ten Commandments - Let's just say that the ten commandments were not inspired by god, but by the Egyptian Book of the Dead about 1200 years earlier. It might also have come from the Code of Hammurapi about 900 years later. But what do I know...here are some examples: Book of the Dead: “I have not blasphemed.” Exodus 20:7: “Thou shalt not take the name of the Lord thy God in vain: for the Lord will not hold him guiltless that shall take the name of the Lord his God in vain.” Book of the Dead: “I have not committed adultery, I have not lain with men.” Exodus 20:14: “Thou shalt not commit adultery.” Book of the Dead: “I have not stolen.” Exodus 20:15: “Thou shalt not steal.” I guess I would be best to include Bart D. Ehrman, the renowned biblical scholar who identified that half of the new testament was written by impostors taking on the names of apostles like Paul. That means the book you think is the word of god, was actually written by a bunch of liars claiming to be apostles and weren't. Feel free to read his book, "Forged". here are my favorite claims though: * At least 11 of the 27 New Testament books are forgeries. * The New Testament books attributed to Jesus’ disciples could not have been written by them because they were illiterate. * Many of the New Testament’s forgeries were manufactured by early Christian leaders trying to settle theological feuds. But again, what do I know...I'm only an atheist.

​@James Powers Gods like Zeus and Isis existed long before Christianity and the Christian Almighty God. Christianity was a new religion (known as a cult in those days) which claimed that its god is bigger than all the gods of the past and existed before them. This is a clever claim because people want a religion that has a powerful message. Another clever claim made by Christianity is that God created a good angel called Satan and the good angel became a bad angel and this bad angel (Satan) is responsible for the evil in the world. It's a clever claim because God created this entity called Satan that can be used as a scapegoat to explain why evil exists in the world. It's a clever claim because people no longer blame God for creating such a messed up world; they simply blame Satan for the mess. Another clever trick used by Christianity is that it urges its followers to have faith and not to ask too many questions because those who too many questions are being influenced by Satan.

Most of our knowledge of the Bible comes from the more famous stories already being part of the culture and the carefully selected and censored highlights that are fed to us from the pulpit. Very few people actually read the Bible with any thoroughness, and so I suspect that reading the Bible is the quickest way for a christian to become an atheist - or at the very least, to abandon theism.

It's not actually necessary to read things like the long lists of genealogy or the songs of Solomon & c, as they have no direct bearing on matters of scriptural dogma. And practically no-one wades through the interminable and stodgy philosophical/theological debate that is the Book of Job. And the heart of christian belief is contained in a mere four gospels, each of which is clearly a re-telling of the previous story with ever-increasing embellishments. I myself have made a thorough reading of the Bible, some chapters multiple times, but I would never claim to have read it from start to finish in its entirety; it's not that kind of a book, it's a collection of writings arbitrarily arranged by various religious councils. Having said that, I can well believe that someone in a very religious family and community would read the whole thing - I mean, its not like their time is just too taken up with studying the theory of evolution, or just science in general, and it probably feels very holy to them to do so... until they read it, that is...

What do you mean "provide no evidence?" We literally do it all the time and you just straight up ignore us. Have you even watched ANY of Aron's videos? The Bible is a horrible mess from cover to cover, and of course it doesn't mention Evolution because the drunken authors of that time had no fucking idea what that was. Today, we observe Evolution all the time, and even observe some of the most rediculous results of evolution. The platypus is a mammal that lays eggs, there was revolutionary reform throughout the entire scientific community when that was discovered. And what the hell do you mean "Doctrine inspired by satan?" If god is not real, which he isn't, then Satan is also not real, that CAN be proven, as anything you can say to support your god, we can say to disprove said god. As for one more thing: Science is NOT a religion. Atheism is also NOT a religion. Atheism literally means "Without Theism." Not having something is not the same and having something. Theism is a belief, Atheism is a lack of that belief. So tell me, When you wake up, don't kick yourself because you were fooled by indoctrination, kick yourself because you defended it blindly, without question.

You ever hear about "The Telephone Game?" Person 1 tells Person 2 "AAA" (The letters are 'some kind of info') After person 1 and 2 go their seperate ways, person 2 tells person 3 "AAB." It was different, because it wasn't written down first, so person 2 had to go off memory. You see the problem here? Imagine this happening for 30 years before someone decided to write it down anywhere.

Valid observation. However, the point is that Moses' revision and re-creation of the tablets makes the 10 Commandments as obviously NOT divinely inspired as Joseph Smith's revision and re-creation of Book of Lehi that Martin Harris "lost". The big difference between the two is that we know Joseph Smith actually existed, whereas (outside scripture) there is absolutely zero evidence that Moses (or any other Egyptian Hebrews) ever did.

I discovered something astonishing about a missionary called Daniel Everett, who came to Brazil's Amazon to evangelize the native people. He met a tribe, a race of natives called Pirrarã, who outsmarted him. The Pirrarã are famous and well-known for their somehow limited language and culture. They are unable to believe in anything that hasn't been proven, seen nor witnessed by anyone who's alive in the present. Despite their primitive culture, they have no creation myths nor deities. They do, however, believe in layers of cosmological existence and in spirits present in nature - their interpretation of the natural world, behaviour of plants, animals, clouds and stars. Their sentences can only contain situations experienced by the speaker or witnessed by someone who's been alive during the speaker's life. To the Pirrarã, the Universe always existed. That said, when Everett told them about Christ, they lost interest in his story when Daniel said that he has never seen Jesus, nor knew anyone who did. "They changed me profoundly. I used to be a missionary, now I am an atheist" said Everett about the Pirrarã. To this date, all attempts of converting the Pirrarã have failed miserably. If there's something you can show, they can be convinced, but can't be converted.

The bad thing about the Pirrarã, I think, is that they are too practical. They don't encourage curiosity as other cultures do. You see many cultures making up stories to explain stuff, but not the Pirrarã. They don't ask many questions. They're solely interested in the "here and now", how do we get food, store it, get shelter, etc. Remember when I mentioned that their language is also limited to the here and now? Isn't that a correlation? Does that mean that our thoughts and ideas are also limited by our language?

Something I got a while ago to reply to any christian who says god doesn't want abortions to occur: "It is also noteworthy that while the bible requires the death penalty for 60 specified criminal violations, abortion is not among them. When all relevant documentation is examined, it is obvious that God does not love the unborn and he certainly does not disapprove of abortion. A pregnant woman who is injured and aborts the fetus warrants financial compensation only (to her husband), suggesting that the fetus is property, not a person (Exodus 21:22-25). • The gruesome priestly purity test to which a wife accused of adultery must submit will cause her to abort the fetus if she is guilty, indicating that the fetus does not possess a right to life (Numbers 5:11-31). • God enumerated his punishments for disobedience, including "cursed shall be the fruit of your womb" and "you will eat the fruit of your womb," directly contradicting sanctity-of-life claims (Deuteronomy 28:18,53). • Elisha's prophecy for soon-to-be King Hazael said he would attack the Israelites, burn their cities, crush the heads of their babies and rip open their pregnant women (2 Kings 8:12). • King Menahem of Israel destroyed Tiphsah (also called Tappuah) and the surrounding towns, killing all residents and ripping open pregnant women with the sword (2 Kings 15:16). • Isaiah prophesied doom for Babylon, including the murder of unborn children: "They will have no pity on the fruit of the womb" (Isaiah 13:18). • For worshiping idols, God declared that not one of his people would live, not a man, woman or child (not even babies in arms), again confuting assertions about the sanctity of life (Jeremiah 44:7-8). • God will punish the Israelites by destroying their unborn children, who will die at birth, or perish in the womb, or never even be conceived (Hosea 9:10-16). • For rebelling against God, Samaria's people will be killed, their babies will be dashed to death against the ground, and their pregnant women will be ripped open with a sword (Hosea 13:16). • Jesus did not express any special concern for unborn children during the anticipated end times: "Woe to pregnant women and those who are nursing" (Matthew 24:19). We know that God killed millions of unborn children and their pregnant mothers-to-be in the Noachian deluge, the conquest of Canaan, the incineration of Sodom and Gomorrah and in 20 major slaughters described in the bible. The critical feature of these horrific events is that all people were exterminated. Whenever entire communities were massacred, we can be sure that pregnant mothers-to-be and their unborn children were among the victims. Moreover, there are no stated exemptions for this specific segment of the population."

And it's why God calls them willfully ignorant. By being stupid on purpose, they can become the god of their own life. Sinning as they feel fit and then excusing their behavior as only a god can. While the willfully ignorant Atheist of this world can seem to succeed, they have a date with the King of King's and the Lord of Lord's, that will not go well for them.

I can't know what you claim to have witnessed but as you have said: Many people claim to have seen something. Not just Christians but Muslims, jews, hinduists and even atheists. They all swear it was what they believed to be true (what you would expect from our psychology). Ask a Hinduist or a Muslim if they saw the God of the bible. What would they answer? The point is that we all see what we want to see (especially when we are not really conscious - like in a dream). That is why science is so important, because there you simply can't ignore what you don't want to see but rather take into account everything you observe. And because science is still conducted by people with biases, etc., peer-reviews are being made to eliminate the influence of our psychological imperfections. What we verifiably observe: living organisms dying and turning into other organic material. What we claim to observe: the stories told by the local priest/pope/religious leader

13:47 "Hello, Aron? It's Me. I just wanted to thank you for all the good work you do in correcting the bigoted, ignorant people who keep putting words into My mouth. You're making the globe a better place. Keep it up." Back in the days of land lines and long distance charges, this would have been a collect call.

Awesome work, once again. A friend of mine was watching this one and he's a Greek history fan and thought your description of how the 600,000 men likely went up the coast and how that might have worked, made a lot of logical sense to him and he liked it. He liked a lot of what you said here actually and so did I. It really showed the inconsistencies and gaps in logic that truly exist in religion. I see it all the time. Pose a direct and clear question to them and when they can't answer you, they come up with some lame excuse. They are infamous for dancing around shit and dodging things that might disprove their beliefs. Like you said either "whoosh" they are gone or they stick their fingers in their ears and do the "Lalalalalala, I can't hear you". Complete denial and the epitome of cognitive dissonance.

This was amazing and I wish it had lasted longer. So interesting.

When you consider contradictions or immorality in the bible, remember that it says in Hebrews 6 18 "impossible for God to lie", or Titus 1:2 "in the hope of eternal life, which God, who cannot lie, promised before time began". So when a theist points out that the bible is the word of god, they're kind of shooting themselves in the foot.

Religion (any and all) is the root of all evil! MAN created god in HIS own image!

20:41 - usually when religious folk get uppity about abortion, I ask them about wholesale slaughter of living children. Of course they are reviled. Then I refer them to Numbers 31:15-18, in which Moses directly orders the slaughter of the children captured after the Hebrews sacked the city of Midian (thou shalt not covet, steal, kill, etc.). This is usually where they start denying the content of their holy book, drop context, or fly into rages because they can't defend it. 28:05 - Y'ever notice that tobacco, chocolate, potatoes, and yams are never mentioned in the Bible--supposed our "one guide to life" (as has been said to me). Why on Earth (no pun intended) are these important, now world-distributed cash crops totally missing from a collection of stories ostensibly the result of an omniscient being?

I'd ask them to point out just where in the Bible there is any rejection of abortion, anywhere it is condemned as a sin. Then upon their failure you can point to Numbers 5:11-22 where the Bible does indeed make reference to abortion - when it recommends it and describes the process that should be used! Both Mosaic Law and the Genesis myth assert that life begins with the first breath - the law and custom of Jesus and his contemporaries held that before a child was born ad took its first breath, it was a part of the mother, just like a limb. The "sanctity" of the pre-born is an entirely modern notion which has no foundation in scripture - quite the opposite in fact.

@@noneofyourbeeswax01 I would use the very same passage to deaconstruct your argument. In that the passage in describing the consequences for adultery isn't describing miscarriage or abortion. In fact the passage doesn't even indicate that the adulterous woman even gets pregnant as the result of adultery. You might want to re-read the passage. Your argument therefore fails because you are presupposing that the adulterous woman would become pregnant after sex. If you are familiar with biology then you would realize that the ratio between sex and pregnancy is not 1:1.

I have personally experienced the strange occurrence of offering scripture to a believer only to have them deny it and then excuse it. My personal favorite example is when I was trying to understand how they believed that noah and his family were able to repopulate the earth, and upon reading the verses that heavily imply they were the only ones on board the ark they insisted that there had to be others. The only possible exception I could find is that God commands he take his house (which could include servants, but goes against later verses that explicitly list the living humans.)

Most people don’t really read what God is saying or take time to understand what’s going on with the Bible. God is concerned with explaining that Jesus is the answer to mankind’s problem of sin. The Bible does not tell us everything about everything that would take 100s of bibles. Jesus came through Noah , that’s the point being made. There could’ve been others on earth somewhere else , just like there could have been other people outside of the garden of eden.

The bible and the subsequent study of it made me an atheist. So that shit still have a good purpose after all as long you are honest enough to see what is true from what is not.
