The Manipulation of Counter Apologetics: Deception
In this video, we dive deep into the deceptive tactics often used by counter-apologetics to undermine Christianity. From misleading arguments to strategic omissions, critics frequently present themselves as experts while disregarding key theological and scholarly insights. We’ll expose examples of this intellectual dishonesty in the work of Kristi Burke, Viced Rhino, and TMM, highlighting how their critiques misrepresent Christian scholarship.
We’ll explore how these arguments manipulate the narrative, from Origen’s views on hell to William Lane Craig’s stance on Einstein’s theory of relativity. Through this, we reveal the critical role of thorough research and engagement with foundational...

Four Pillars of Christian Apologetics: C.S. Lewis
Просмотров 3,3 тыс.Месяц назад
Before the fourth horseman of new atheism, there were the four pillars of Christian literature in the early 20th century: J.R.R. Tolkien, C.S. Lewis, G.K. Chesterton, and Dorothy L. Sayers. These authors not only influenced Christianity but also left a significant mark on culture. Even the most ardent atheists have likely encountered and enjoyed their works, which have shaped Western literature...

Ancient Philosophical Clash: Celsus vs. Origen - The Original Skeptic vs. Apologist Debate
Просмотров 3,1 тыс.2 месяца назад
Welcome to our historical fiction series on the philosophical validity of Christianity! Set in the year 250, just two years after Origen's "Against Celsus" was released, we imagine a debate between Celsus and Origen at the very school founded by Justin Martyr in Rome. This is a work of historical fiction, aiming to reflect the arguments of both men faithfully as they appear in their books. In t...
It’s fascinating to me as well that Charles Darwin, Sigmund Freud and Karl Marx were all Jewish.
I think that Freud’s rejection of Judaism was the core reason he rejected Christianity. It doesn’t seems like he ever really took it seriously. Only really dismissing it with very service level objections.
Wasn't Paul secretly working for the Flavian Dynasty? Weren't all of the original Roman Catholic Saints' members of the Flavian Dynasty? Weren't all of the original symbols used by the earliest Christians identical to those of the Flavian Dynasty? And isn’t one of the earliest iconographic symbols for Christianity, located in a catacomb, under the city of Rome, which was owned by a Flavian Princess? Weren't all of the original Jesus cult texts produced under the oversight of the Flavian Dynasty? Didn't the Flavian Dynasty posses the only remaining copy of the Hebrew Tanakh other than the Greek Septuagint translation? Isn't there Flavian typology in the Gospels? Weren't the canonical texts all back dated like the historical fiction of Gone With The Wind? Wasn't Emperor Vespasian known as the Jewish Messiah? Wasn’t Pope Clement of Rome a Flavian? Wasn't Josephus a temple whore for the Flavian Dynasty? Weren't the Flavian’s, as well as Paul, descended from King Herod? There was no separation of Church and State in the Roman Empire. And Christianity is clearly a Greco-Roman hybrid form of Judaism created by the Flavian Dynasty. As an attempt to adapt, pacify, and integrate the rebellious and defiant Jews into the rest of the Greco-Roman Empire. Just like the Greeks created Hermes Trismegistus to integrate Egyptian mythology with Greek mythology.Then finally Neo-Flavian Constantine chose the Flavian family religion to be the official religion of the entire Roman Empire. In order to consolidate power in his fractured Empire. And then Eusebius edited and rewrote the history of the previous 3OO years. Destroying all contradictory evidence. It isn't history it is all simply Greco-Roman mythopoetic literature. Today it is known as Historical Fiction. “What profit hath not this fable of Christ brought us.” Pope Leo X 💙
The goal of the Romans was to change their national religion and identity to pacify a minor largely unimportant region in the near east? The emperor secretly collaborated with a tent maker from a small city to carry this out? Causing major unrest with in the emperor and further alienating the Jewish population that rejected the teaching of Jesus. For what reason exactly?
I'm happy to see that this channel has reached 1K subscribers. I find the topics fascinating and thought provoking. Keep up the good work!

Great content, keep it up! 👍
Great job 💯
Love seeing the connections between these literary giants and their impact on Christianity! 🛡
Literature has been such a core aspect of Christianity. As literature allows us to explore the human condition in a more pure method than scholarship could ever. For example Dostoevsky does more in Crime and Punishment to explore the limits of subjective morality more so than any scholarly paper on the topic has.
This video is a must-watch for anyone interested in philosophy and theology. So deep! 🧠
Thank you so much for the nice comment!
The Chronicles of Narnia and Mere Christianity are timeless!
@@williamsdavis8462 One of my favorite allegories from "The Chronicles of Narnia" is how readers, like the characters within Narnia, know that Aslan is real and exists. I love how the stories convey that Aslan does not appear to everyone but uses select representatives who reflect his character through their actions. Additionally, we see the cycle of disbelief and how quickly characters start to believe in Aslan as a myth, despite the reader knowing they are mistaken. This brilliantly represents how we experience God in the world.
I learned a lot from this video that I didn't know
Thanks for share this... 🖤
Thank you so much!!!!
great job to provide a deepening knowledge of christianity and a defend for chrsitianity. so how many more debates of 2 great people with the topic of defending christianity ?
@@user-lq7pk8yb6t right now their are a few I want to look at. I want to explore G.K. Chesterton and Friedrich Nietzsche, Tolkien and Carl Jung, then Dorthy Sayers and Ayn Rand. This group provides fascinating insights and conflicting views that clash extremely well. Chesterton and his defense or Orthodoxy versus the Nietzsche rejection of the traditional. Or the varying perspectives in the role of myth in determining truth between Tolkien and Jung. I find exploring the idea fascinating.
💯
"Excited for this series on Lewis and the literary giants! 🌟
Thank you I look forward to the next one!
I love this ❤ Please do more of the early Church's encounters with heresies.
that is a great idea! I would love that. I find the early church to be fascinating. I seems to me that the scholarship form this period was unmatched and I believe directly influenced by God. Essentially all modern debate of Christianity was already addressed by Origen, Thomas Aquinas, Saint Augustine,Justin Martyr , Tertullian, etc. There seems to be extremely little ground that these scholars have not already addressed.
Debates are great
Can’t wait for more.
Thank you! I'm posting more!
Wow I can’t wait to see the other videos. Great food for thought! Thank you for your efforts!
Thank you so much for the support!
HEY!!! THINK YOU COULD TURN THE BACKGROUND MUSIC UP A FEW NOTCHES??? I can ALMOST hear the dialog.
I am extremely sorry for this. I will defiantly fix this in the future. Again I apologize.
Oregin was one of the greatest Christians apologetic and was one of the earliest and most important Christian scholars. Was born and died. (Origen of Alexandria (AD 185-254). While C. S. Lweise was born in 1898 and died 1963. How did you manage to have Oregin quoting C. S. Lweise?
@@speak-thetruth thank you for the comment! It was a creative liberty. I personally find many of the arguments of Origen consistent with the writings of CS Lewis. I have not found any evidence that points to CS Lewis being impacted by Origen they have a similar intellectual approach to biblical interpretation
@@SpeakeasyApologeticsI gave my son the middle name “Origanos” Arabic for Origen.
@@minasoliman that is awesome! I do not think that within Christianity Origen gets the credit due. I think that he was one of the finest scholars and philosophers to emerge Christianity.
@@SpeakeasyApologetics fully agreed. Both his intelligence and his way of life deserves due veneration
@@minasoliman I think that he really establish the roots that Lewis, Tolkien, and Dostoevsky thrived in exploring the more metaphoric and literary aspect of the Bible.
I learned many things that I did not know. Thanks for the share this.
Thanks for watching! I really appreciate it
Thought-provoking and educational! Love this historical fiction series! 📖💡
Thank you!!!
Great wisdom presented, but how I wish it could be presented without disturbing music. 😅 Knut/Norway
Thank you so much for the comment. I will definitely keep that in mind going forward. Thank you!
Thanks for share this video. 🙏
Thank You So Much!!!!
Really enjoyed the deep debate between Celsus and Origen on Christianity's philosophical validity! 🙏
This debate is captivating! The philosophical arguments are on point. 💡🎥
A really good story 😍
Thank you!!
Fascinating debate between Celsus and Origen on Christianity's philosophical validity! Love the historical and intellectual depth. 😍
Thank you so much! I really appreciate your kind words. I put a lot of effort into researching for this video. What really stood out to me during my research is how intellectually rich the discourse was between early skeptics and early apologists. In fact, I found that Celsus' critiques were far more nuanced and sophisticated compared to many modern skeptics. It’s fascinating to see how deeply they engaged with philosophical and theological arguments back then.
