Translating Bible Verses to Say What They Mean

I’m often rebuked with Bible verses that try to make critical thinking itself appear evil or unreasonable.

I recently decided to respond to a Christian posting these verses to my channel by “translating” them, in plain English, to say what they actually mean (which is pretty much always a fallacious philosophical argument).

The results have been fun. One of my subscribers joined in, too. Which made me think: maybe people should respond this way generally to bad Bible verses. 

Test of Sincerity

HI, I stumbled upon your video somehow and I would like to ask you some questions, 

Premature Judgement

fawlty35:

I haven’t logged into this youtube account in over 3 years.

The Bible is full of allegorical tales from earlier cultures. It doesn’t take a linguistics ‘Professor’ to know this. It seems that the ‘Professor’ feels like he has found some truth that only the “academic few” are aware of. This is not the case.

For you, the Bible and God are one in the same. Both you and the ‘Professor’ believed at one time that something written by Man is the ‘Word of God’.

When this no longer appears to be true, you discount God entirely as did the ‘Professor’. Try reading Bernard Haisch for a different perspective. You seem to have committed to a one track analysis of God’s existence, largely led by someone who may be looking for answers himself (reason he was reading the amazon reviews in the first place).

Just Watch the Series (and Don’t Worry)

I saw your video by mistake

I saw your video in a search for something unrelated and it pains me to see what you have done.

Did you ever consider that Christianity is flawed but that God is real?

You should read this:

Let me know if this at least makes you want to know more about Judaism….

Menace to Society

This is a response to a blog entry warning youth leaders of the Assembly of God to watch out for me and my videos.

It’s called “Why The Kids in Your Assembly of God Youth Group May Not Really Be Saved” by David Shedlock and can be found here:

You can’t define atheism as a “lack of belief”

todocambiara2:

Something cannot be what it is not. Nothing is defined by what it is not. When you say, “Atheism is the lack of a belief,” you’ve done it, right there.

Atheism is (atheism being something) the lack of a belief (the lack of anything is nothing). You’re right in saying that atheism lacks belief, but not about what atheism is, only what it lacks. I you use the definition “the lack of”, you’re saying something is what it is not.
