I used to be very careful about not saying anything that might offend anyone and then I noticed that the people who were quickest to take offense were always out there in everyone else's faces saying offensive things on a daily basis. Being a nice guy was just letting those folks rampage through culture unopposed. So, now you I'm not very shy about saying what I believe and if anyone gets offended, oh well. People ought to be able to have adult conversations about politics and religion without anyone losing it.

True but in a world as diverse as ours, you need to also be sensitive to others opinions, and you need to take social standings into account as well, and most of all consider where the decision to engage some on these topics comes from. Are you trying to inform, shock, draw attention, correct, or simply to enrage and spite. By the social standings thing I mean like it would be hard to discuss religion with your boss because they have more social power than you and if things get heated you can be fired. Now imagine if the roles were reversed, if you were in the situation of power. The long explanations on KZread is because KZread videos aren't really a conversation, they mostly one sided because the video can't be changed to react to someone else. The Metatron for example cannot reply to someone who asks for them to clarify their point or worse what if he is misunderstood (like the video on Women warriors something something which he had to do a reply video called "Do I hate Women?" because some didn't understand him or took his words out of context). So as a KZread Content Creator he needs to be as clear as possible.

You still should keep respecting other people. Remember that any side of the social wars have extremists and some folk that don't read the schedule before joining a side. And nobody have to be burdened with your shit. If a person (from any side) get offended just say sorry or get out. People in general know when they see a true hollow nuisance, so, we're covered. Anyways, we trully have to stop peeps with "opinions" from rampaging through society and try to have constructive conversations, butting heads over beliefs is not very effective for it.

The trouble with talking religion is that you got two positions (that aren't necessarily mutually exclusive). One holds that there is a core truth. Trouble with this is if you're pretty sure you know it, you'll probably favor it pretty heavily. Otherwise you'd be spreading lies. (The case for Christians. If you thought everyone else was going to burn in hell, wouldn't you want to help as many as possible escape that fate?) The other side is that it's a personal issue. Brining it up only serves to cause fighting. You might do a study of religions by taking away the seriousness of it, perhaps a step away from fiction, but treat it as a search for truth and things to down hill. My rough thoughts on the matter anyways.

Well, that's pretty much what he said. Check out the Books of Enoch, which were part of the Dead Sea scrolls, but is not considered Canonical except in the Ethiopian Bible. The angels or "gods" in the Heavenly Council are discussed in more detail. The Bible we have today only mentions Michael and Gabriel, both archangels, maybe Azazel too, if I'm not mistaken. There are good and bad angels, but they all originate from Heaven. It's so interesting, it would be worthwhile checking it out in addition to the Bible.

I like this video. I miss the days where we could be reasonable, and have discussions and argue differing viewpoints with people in a civilised and constructive way. Amazing that this sentiment was common place just 7 years ago, and is today, entirely gone.

I really enjoy your honest and purist approach to history. We need more people who see the history through the lens of facts instead of putting any slant on it whether left or right. I enjoy your content. Keep up the good work.

every video I watch on this channel teaches me something new and often quite amazing. I do enjoy the fact that you address you community as "Noble Ones" as well.

What a great channel! Brilliant. So glad to have found it! You manage to bring so many seemingly disparate subjects together and show the actual interconnectedness of things. Davvero meraviglioso! Auguri!

I only recently discovered your channel, about a week ago, through the video about the Blades armor from Oblivion. I was instantly hooked and subbed on the spot. I've not yet had the time to really watch many more of your uploads, but you can count on that changing very soon. I was only slightly familiar with the concept on the Metatron, and it's a really interesting concept and story, regardless of one's beliefs. I choose my first comment to be on this video, though, to say how impressed I am with the level of respect and the way you present an open view to all people, regardless of their own beliefs. As a non-religious American currently living in what is known as 'The Bible-Belt' area of the US, this is something I don't get to see very often in people I don't personally know. To me, it's a very important concept that so many people seem to have forgotten, at least the people that live in my area of the world. It's at the forefront of my social habits to treat all people with the same respect, regardless of one's religion, gender, race, age, or any other such characteristic. I judge people based ONLY on the way they interact with the world around them - their treatment of other people, animals, and the planet - and even then, that judgement is used only to determine how close to my life I will allow them to be (basically, how much time I would to spend around them), and doesn't effect how I treat them in return. I'll treat someone that I dislike the same way as I would one of my best friends, I just try not to be around them as much. (Granted, that changes when they begin to purposely cause harm to the people around them, but that's a story for another day, I feel I've ranted enough here already.) Again, just had to express that feeling of gratitude for not only your great mindset, but your great videos as well. I look forward to watching many more, both from your channel's past and those yet to come. Keep up the great work, and good luck!

Don't know if the Metatron (the one in the Heavens) is helping you doing your videos. Fact is, they are really good, and one sees there's a lot of knowledge and intelligence behind them. I'm a happy new subscriber (from Northern Italy, but leaving between Germany and Prague - so, closer to the Golem than to the Metatron, I guess).

Between your well organized video and the name metatron with the merkaba and flower of life and the metatron cube pattern. That was the deciding reason for me subscribing your channel.

Pretty awesome choice. I’m curious if you’ve spent any effort on Koine Greek for the New Testament? I have spent some time learning Koine Greek and Biblical Hebrew, but I am not fluent in either. I know enough to be able to struggle through a modest translation for myself. I admire your expertise and I feel aligned with your discussions about religions in this and in other presentations. Knowing even a limited amount about the original languages of the Bible frees one to understand one’s relationship with God in an entirely different way. I know Christian fanatics preach that one can lose their faith or become an atheist if they dissect scripture too much, but for me, my faith has become far more complex and richer and in the process I have become so much more open to other religious world views, including atheism. The experience of a relationship with God is so personal that it is extraordinary absurd to preach to anyone, even in a church. I don’t attend church, anymore. I just sit there and disagree privately most of the time. Why bother? And today, 04/10/2021, I am ashamed of American Christians because of what they have turned their reprehensible movement into. But that’s another story.

I agree 100%. I listen to Dr. Michael Heiser who breaks the Bible down into Hebrew and Greek also. He explains the duties (it's all about their job descriptions) of the angels or "gods". Most preachers won't touch this scripture with a ten-foot pole, because they are afraid they'll shock the Church. It's all there, but ignored by most ministers. Dr. Heiser is also a PhD in linguistics and has a ministry. You will be pleasantly surprised how closely mythology and the Bible relate. It's all about the "words" and the minds of the ancient Hebrews, Jews and Greeks. Like you, I've grown closer to God through my research, still believing that God is above all the other gods (or angels) in the Heavenly Host. If you see this and check out Dr. Heiser, specifically the "Unseen Realm" and "Supernatural", let me know what you think. All his teachings and books are worth looking into. God bless!

Metatron, thanks for this informative & enjoyable content. I found you yesterday and my soul rejoiced🕊🙏🤓

I've really enjoyed your linguistic take on historical matters. I have read a fair bit on Rome and the Punic Wars but learned plenty from your channel.

Very interesting Video. Your name is really a very cool choice. And what you said at 9:24 gave me a big smile!

I really enjoy your videos. I'm a big fan of history too. I'm Agnostic but I was brought up in a catholic family and it was the most annoying time in my life. I was put in a catholic school and made to say prayers in a class on catholic belief everyday which was mandatory and they put their religion in everything. Oh and my real name means or derives from Son of Aodh which in Irish mythology is god of the underworld.

Came here from your last live stream. My guess, which was completely comical & always the first thing on the very rare occasion that I hear "The Metatron" out in the wild, was from the movie "Dogma." Your explanation was well thought & succinct.

I'm just a new subscriber cause i just found your channel but i find your videos very informative and valid. Good job.

As an atheist I like to see religions as fantasy lores exactly the same as the lord of the rings or a plethora of videogames out there. So chosing favourite characters makes sense.

Why you call yourself Orthodox? Doesn't exist a hebrew word to describe your religion but instead you decide in using a Greek? Also there is no word in hebrew to describe the Synagogue you attend every saturday and you chose a Greek one? Metatron my friend is also a greek word and means after the throne. Just the theta letter became t because usually only greeks can pronounce it properly. If i were you i would stick ONLY in the Tora and not in the kabalistic interpretations influenced by Babylonians and Greeks.

@@gigi2212 You’re actually wrong, in Hebrew Jews use the word “dati” which means religious and is the Hebrew away to describe oneself as orthodox. Also your second point is wrong again. Jews use the Hebrew words “beit knesset”, meaning “house of assembly” for synagogue. It seems like your just upset that Jews in English speaking countries are using English (which has Greek loan words) to describe themselves.

​@@Channel-ml4qv Yea sure everybody is wrong except you!!! You say Jesus said this and that in Hebrew... Jews never kept any record of Jesus talking anything, Jews wanted to kill Jesus because they saw him as fake. Jesus' words were kept alive only in Greek koine megalogrammati. How you will show us anything Jesus said in Hebrew ??? By the way, you still haven't answered why Jews use the greek word SYNAGOGUE wherever they live although they have their own word to describe the same thing? And why they don't use a local word for every country they live in (Assembly in America for example). Why only Greek everywhere??? Even they give their children Greek names (Alexander for example)? And yes why do they identify as orthodox and not as חֲרֵדִי?

I'm more partial to Michael (deliverer of the first curb stomp battle in history, patron of exorcists) but still a solid choice. Ever since I first found your channel I'd wondered why you chose the name. Interesting reasons.

I am new to your channel. But it was the name you have chosen that drew me to the channel. I enjoyed your explanation of the Metatron. I also look forward to more of your videos in the future.

Very interesting video as usual. I find the history and origins of names very interesting. I decided to look into my names origin because of the part in you're video mentioning names ending in 'el' and found that Daniel means 'God is my judge'. Thanks again for another superb video

Dude! You brought up Drizzt Do’Urden and I had to pause and look him up. I played “The Accursed Tower” at 17 or 18yo, WHEN IT WAS KINDA NEW! I’m 56yo now. From his wiki entry, I see he ‘literally’ has had a long and robust life. The Drow have always stuck in my memory since then. You called him a hero and that’s why I had to look him up, to confirm he wasn’t the typical Drow. But he was what the kids call now a ‘disruptor’ and earns the title of hero handily. But he was early shades of the anti-hero that pervades so many stories now.

I can’t get enough of these videos!

+Clint Carpentier English isn't too hard conceptually. It's all the exceptions to all the concepts that make it hard even for us native speakers.

I think people tend to be more sensitive about the use of religious iconography or mythology only when the religion in question is active and practiced by many people. No one thinks twice about using names from Egyptian, Greek, or Norse mythology, as except in a few neo-pagan movements no one actually subscribes to the associated religions. On the other hand, someone referring to himself on KZread as Yahweh, Jesus Christ, or The Prophet Muhammad is likely to receive a great deal of flak for disrespecting a religion (at best) or blasphemy (at worst). Personally, I don't see the need to respect others' beliefs. I respect their right to hold any particular belief they have, since belief is not a choice, but there is nothing about the concept of beliefs that intrinsically deserves respect. That said, I'm not so much of a shit-disturber that I would go out of my way to be offensive for the purpose of provoking an angry reaction.

theMatt2610 Just because one was not born with a particular belief does not mean one consciously chose it. Consider indoctrination, after all. Another great example is people who lose their religious faith. For some of the particularly devout, it's a rather traumatic ordeal. They leave their religion only kicking and screaming, as they desperately want to continue to believe, even as they realise they no longer do. The whole "crisis of faith" would not be much of a crisis if the matter of belief were a personal choice.

@Fraus2610

8 жыл бұрын

Ostsol Belief is a personal choice, indoctrination is the choices of others being forced on you, and the fact, that you can leave a religion for another, or none, is proof enough of it being a choice, and not something that has been preordained.

@Ostsol

8 жыл бұрын

+theMatt2610 -- One's indoctrination being the choice of others means, by definition, that it is not one's _personal choice_. Someone making a choice for you in no way makes it your own conscious choice. You can choose to go along with it, but whether or not you believe what you are being told is contingent on it being convincing. In the case of indoctrination, information is controlled such that one is never exposed to contrary arguments or evidence. Sure people can choose to leave a religion, but leaving religion is not the issue. The issue is their _reason_ for leaving. People leave a religion because they no longer believe in what it teaches, but they do not choose to not believe. It's something that simply happens as a result of encountering convincing evidence or arguments to the contrary. Even still, many who no longer believe stay with their religion for other reasons. I'm not sure where you get preordination from. If something isn't a choice, that doesn't necessarily imply that it was preordained. It simply means it happens either despite one's own wishes, or without one's conscious understanding that it is happening. If you don't agree, well, that's fine. This is just something that I've really starting to believe after watching some atheists' "deconversion" videos. They really drive home the fact that they really wanted to continue believing, but simply couldn't anymore. It all felt false and trying to fake it to others just made matters worse.

Love this video! I think it would be amazing to hear more about you ersonal beliefs please make that video. :)

Hi Metatron, I'm a recent subscriber to your channel but I have already watched many of your videos as I find them very enjoyable to watch and informative. I know you specialise in things such as ancient and mediaeval warfare but I would also be extremely interested in hearing more about various parts of religious lore such as this. I think its a very nice blend for as you have said it is almost like a really awesome fantasy novel. I think overall going into the beliefs of the people you are discussing would give an overall greater context to not only parts related to warfare but the profound cultural and ritualistic beliefs some of these people may of had. Even things that are quite irrelevant from warfare and are more focused on EPIC history itself would be really interesting! No pressure! Thanks for the great videos.
