My favourite thing about that video is that it uses deception and misrepresentation and lies (Come on, it even refers to Bart Ehrman as a "pious protestant"), exact tools satan would use π. It does capture satan's personality perfectly though, pretending to be the good guy.
Wait dude, I just realized - do you also believe in the literal Satan?
I'm a Christian.... So yes....
Woa, never met anyone who actually took Christianity that literal. That must be a wild experience to believe in literal devil and god, sin and all that stuff - that's a trip and a half. Kind of speechless - that's just wild.
Do suppose the only "Christian" you know is SchrΓΆdinger's Catholic π You mustn't get out much
I don't think that was a very charitable comment. I haven't anyone that believes in the Bible in a literal way either. I've heard people say the stories are mostly allegory and to practice the message of the Bible and the like.
That's insane. It's a shame how far we've fallen.
Maybe take it down a notch when it comes to calling people insane because your lack of self awareness is kind of embarrassing. We aren't the ones going off about an ancient book of supernatural morality tales. Tales that you haven't learned to practice what they're preaching apparently.
You know, when you start to think that everyone else around you is insane - maybe it's a good moment to stop for a moment and reflect.
Sure, what ever helps you sleep at night my crazy friend.
