Answer: God works in mysterious ways
damn you got us all
Of course, God works in mysterious ways that man can't possibly hope to understand. The only things that we know for sure about Him are that he hates gays and loves it when we substitute medicine with prayer, so we should all just do those two things blindly!
That's not an answer, that's an assumption. But if it were, Why would god need to work in an inefficiënt way like that?
+Danny Maas Because you can't know why, because God works in mysterious ways (I don't believe, I'm just giving the stereotypical believers argument)
God is all powerful and all knowing, God knows what choice everyone is going to make ever. Like he said, what's the point it creating the first man and woman, then killing them and their decedents, all except for one of their grand sons and grand daughters?
Just wanted to say how honoured I am to have reached my first ever 200 dislikes on a video - I couldn't have done it without you guys
came here to ask why all the hate on this video? the others were nicely received.
As far as I'm aware, this video happened to appear on the newsfeed of people who aren't subscribed, so more people who aren't subscribed and disagree with me saw the video, which is a good thing if you ask me!
this kind of video will do that. to be fair, I think you overgeneralize a lot here, and I'd wonder if you'd be interested in someone taking this video point for point and answering each question from the other perspective. then again, you'd have to have confidence that that person is an actual thinker and not just a blind believer. in any case, as someone who has been in your shoes, and no longer is, for various reasons, and who has a BA in Philosophy and an MA in history both broadly studying the three great monotheistic faiths, I'd be happy to answer honestly. not that I think I'd ever convince you, but we all need hear from critics who aren't nutjobs once in a while.
I'm sure you'll soon be winning friends and influencing people
lmao, ikr XD never thought it would happen
Why does God not agree with abortion but hands out miscarriages like candy
My life In A Nutshell It’s people that don’t agree with abortion, not God. Remember, religion is run by mankind
Redgie Fonzarelli, sorry no, abortion is murder of the innocent and God doesn't support that in any form or manner and has clearly stated many times in the Bible that murderers will not enter heaven.
Daryl A You pro-lifers me make laugh. You think you’re in the right but you’re dead wrong. Let me ask you a question: When does a potential life take precedence over an actual life? If you say yes/always, then you clearly not a true pro-lifer but a pro-sadist. You condone the suffering of billions of actual men, women and children in this world whether they suffer from starvation, disease, poverty, war, abuse, murder, rape, and incest and you insist that they are nothing and that a mere fetus is more valuable than they are! Apparently the 10th Commandment doesn’t apply to you (Even though in Matthew 22 36-39, Jesus says you must follow it.) You are a sick man, Daryl. You’re the one who’s going to Hell for being such a sadistic prick and deceiving others with your false teachings and ideologies
My life In A Nutshell oh fuck off you piece of shit
Bas 14ST That was a brilliant comment - god is the ultimate mass murderer
Why would God make the path to himself "narrow", and the path to eternal damnation "wide"?
That's figurative language.
+An Luu I realize that, and the illustration means most people go down the wide path to damnation. So my question is why would God make the system such that most of his beloved creatures end up eternally separated from him, instead of eternally enjoying the beatific vision and basking in his love? It's pretty messed up.
when you are choosing a partner in life do you just accept any one? or do you try to find the best for you?
Casey just put it perfectly. Life is like a test. if you, yourself, a tiny incapable tiny human aren't able to believe in a power larger than yourself there's no point.
he created you, gives you life, happiness, makes you able to love. He isnt a partner, he is a god. I was using a metaphor to put it in simple terms. If you havent read the bible and put in the time to understand it then dont try to. You're as ignorant as people who try to write islam off as a violent religion. If you dont want to believe in god then dont. Why waste your time hating on what others believe in? Must be a very boring life.
This video could have easily been 2-3 hours long ;)

First: I am Atheist, but I won't try to offend or "convert" anyone.
How is the Virgin Mary a Virgin if she gave birth to Jesus?
+aidan c. I guess that's why you would call the Virgin berth a mericale and not something normal XD. How did jesus walk on water how did he turn water into wine its a mericale because it's not something that is possible for the world as it is without God intervening into the world and how science (the discovery of the things that make our world work all of the forces and atoms and natural laws that were created by God to keep the universe running) tells us it runs
If you dont believe there is a God that has control over his creation obviously there would never be a virgin birth but asking the question to someone who's world view revolves around God's divinity and being all powerful means I will answer the questions as my world view answers. However without such a being yes you are right a virgin birth wouldn't be possible :)
I thoroughly enjoyed this porn music in the background
Yes, I was waiting for the lesbian scene too.
Is there anything else about God that doesn't make sense to you?
Is there anything about gods that does make sense?
The fact that he's indistinguishable from unicorns, Santa, the tooth fairy and pixies, but people still treat the notion seriously?
Wouldn't it be incredibly boring for an omniscient god to create a universe, when he'd know everything that would happen down to the minutest detail?
Why did an omnipotent God command the Israelites to murder innocent men, women, children, and babies so his chosen people could live in their promised land? Why didn't this omnipotent God just snap his fingers and teleport all those innocent people somewhere else?
Deuteronomy 20-
10 When you march up to attack a city, make its people an offer of peace. 11 If they accept and open their gates, all the people in it shall be subject to forced labor and shall work for you. 12 If they refuse to make peace and they engage you in battle, lay siege to that city. 13 When the Lord your God delivers it into your hand, put to the sword all the men in it. 14 As for the women, the children, the livestock and everything else in the city, you may take these as plunder for yourselves. And you may use the plunder the Lord your God gives you from your enemies. 15 This is how you are to treat all the cities that are at a distance from you and do not belong to the nations nearby.
16 However, in the cities of the nations the Lord your God is giving you as an inheritance, do not leave alive anything that breathes.17 Completely destroy them-the Hittites, Amorites, Canaanites, Perizzites, Hivites and Jebusites-as the Lord your God has commanded you.

Why would god sacrifice god to god to make god happy to forgive gods creation
Because he loves us.
Well because if a normal men give his life for us then god would not accept the sacrifice because men have fall physically and spiritually. That why Jesus Christ, aka the embodiment of god must do it because he is holy, spiritually and physically. Why you think in church that we pray the blood of Jesus Christ when we pray.😇
@bible Reader It's actually $200 to avoid going to jail. Unless you get a Community Chest card.
@@montrealstewart8148 Alternatively, he could just forgive us and skip the whole sacrificing himself thing. You'd think an omnipotent and all-knowing god would know how to do that.
@Fnatic JW What an intelligent answer. You've totally disproven Christianity.

god works in mysterious ways...if this statement is true then next time my teachers catch me for being a jerk, all I have to say is "I'm just acting in God's image...just being mysterious like him"
"HEY RELIGION TEACHER! i've got some questions for you!!"
Why did Jesus have nipples? Did he use them to breastfeed even though he can't since he is a man?
Rew Rose why would God give sexual characteristics in the first place if lust is a sin? And for that matter, why did he give guys foreskins? And then tell them to chop it off?
Liam Burr-Knight
it must be one of his infamous _mysterious ways~_
Rew Rose first of all, g spot is for the vagina. Look up the definition before you start asking dumb questions that can easily be answered. Second of all, you don't know if Jesus had nipples. But assuming he did, which I think he does because Mary gave birth to him and since Mary was sinless and pure, and so was God, Jesus's physical form inherited some physical genetics of Mary because it's a fact that Mary is the mother of the HUMAN Jesus. Nipples are just another physical part because as males we have one Y and one X chromosomes. While females are two X chromosomes. We still have one X indicating female aspect apart of us.
@@rewrose2838 nipples are for mild to childern
Dear God:
Please use your infinite power to end the suffering of your creations.
Thank You.
The devil is king of earth. What I mean by this is that he is on earth making people suffer. God is also making you suffer because of the things u do. So if u dont want to suffer just live life God
@@mktherapper6506 I'm speechless that you think your answer is logical.
Don't worry, it coming soon. Very soon.😇
@@mktherapper6506 What I wonder to The full most is Why couldn't The God of The Bible have just programmed His creation so to speak with Perpetual Perfect Nature plus Free Will from The Start??? So That There wouldn't even have to be a such Thing as Sin or A Judgement Day for That Matter???
For an example if tech designers can make and design computerized phones Then The God of The Bible SHOULD have The Power to do infinitely better.
I am 36 years old by the way, Black American male.
this is stupid... everyone knows there's only one true god... the flying spaghetti monster god...
Brutal fister not pastafarian, but it's one of the 2 religions I fully support. the other being Buddhism. ramen?
The phenomenon of your existence is fun to belittle I guess...?
Why should God reveal himself to someone who doesn't care to learn anything?
You reject people telling you that you are worth more, and don't want to find out more about that possibility?
God doesn't force anyone against their will.
You're loved, but if you want to keep thinking you're nothing, it is your freedom.
But I hope you look to every good example in life , to see that it's worth living for, and worth finding out more about why you are here... If you truly would want to know the truth, and not have your heart and mind twisted in the opposite direction. There are spiritual implications to our choices, even if you aren't aware God exists.
All hail flying spaghetti monster!
lol, that is the saddest comment ever...
I guess you don't live on an orb in an amazing universe, nothing phenomenal to be seen, move right along. Too incredible for there be an intelligent creator, especially with such ungrateful creations. Oh wait, freewill. You are free to believe in the flying spaghetti monster and remain ignorant :D Have fun with that.
and even it's getting pasta its use by date.

Because 4 billion years is just an afternoon nap for god
If that's true, then his "1 day's rest" from the 7 days of creation was what, a blink of an eye?
Says who? How do you know?
From an old joke: a man Asus God how he experiences a minute? God answer "like a million years". Then the man asks God for a million dollars. God answers "sure, do you have a minute ?"
+Jeremy Bitton No, his day of rest was most likely million or hundreds of thousand earth years. It was one day to God not people
+Enoch Hart well as we know God is omnipotent meaning in all places and all times so he is not bound by time such as years or days. So I think the purpose of God saying he rested for one day would be for him to say he rested for one day, there would be no reason to tell us it was 1 day if he himself isn't constrained by time!

Untrue. He even left a written letter to undo this fallacy.
yoyo youcef ...... He didn't , he used the word God purely as a metaphor.
The man was a genious.
Plus, as christians say, you just have to "accept jc" to enter heavens, then anyone is entitled. Just repent in the last sec and you are good, no matter how massive the trail of destruction you left behind is.
Being a free thinking Catholic I appreciate this video! We should ask these questions! And open our minds to these ideas! Good to change your views!
Why do catholics do the opposite to what the bible says?
E.g. not to worship idols, not to call anyone father but him, no insence, only God can forgive.
Yet catholics worship idols, and even worship another human (Mary), they have a man in the church they call Father and he thinks he can forgive sin (he is not God), they have lots of incense etc etc.
@@liveonce2102 former Catholic atheist here- Catholics don’t worship Mary or the saints. They ask for their intercession to God. They also don’t believe priests forgive sins. They believe that God works through the priests to forgive sin. The priest isn’t doing the forgiving, he’s there as a listener. Even Catholic priests are supposed to go to confession.
@@liveonce2102 Ex-catholic here, ni, saints are not worshipped. If you're invoking saints in your prayer, you're basically asking them to ask God to listen yo your prayer.
The priest does not forgive your sins, Jesus does. It's as if you wrote a letter and the priest was the postal service
1. Maybe you have decorations in the house, that's why
2. The idea had to come to him that, God needs an idea too
3. In the beginning, God made heaven and earth, first Heaven and then Earth.
in this range the Earth and the matter on it still exists, who knows how much time could pass
God worked six days but on seventh day it is never said it was finished.
4. I don't understand the question very well so I don't wabt to give wrong answer
5. Just like a hundred things like shoes get old and thrown away, so does this
6. I don't believe in evolution as a Christian
7. Just as parents have children and children cause problems, it is not the parents' fault
8. He appears through the saints
9. Sin is serious therefore this law needed to be serious
10. Today's world has the biggest mistake in history, children have become very rude, otherwise respect should be returned with respect
11. Same as 7. However, if he were to destroy it now, he would destroy us all because we are also evil.
12. Pharaoh said no and God thought I can see where this is going and just hardened his heart even more. (he gave him what he wanted)
13. Imagine it like this, someone broke your car and you forgive him, everything is fine, but someone still has to pay for the car damage.

Yea, I'm going to need a source for the earth being made on the 6th day (earth day) after the big bang. Before the first atoms formed.
so Alex... can you make a video of some top something books you've read?
I'm planning on making some semi-regular videos talking about books I've been reading and a brief summary of what they cover, as long as it's something that people would want to see :)
Absolutely....I am always fascinated by what people read. :)
I picked up a copy of 'Letter To A Christian Nation' after you suggested it. I am surprised I haven't read it before. Received it yesterday, half way through. You are right, it's very good.
I would be down for some book recommendations.
Great idea.
I really love your dry humor. It comes at unexpected moments.
Love your videos. Especially your response videos. Very well spoken, keep it up
You're not supposed to ask questions. You need to just blindly worship the non-existent god.
Yeah, but you don’t do that by believing in a god written by satanists. Make becoming a better person your goal and you’ll understand the real “god”, not the twisted one written by dark forces.
Pav RS I’ll give you one the demonology book written by King James.
I am a zombie, I am a zombie I will believe in anything that I'm told.
God wants us to have reasons for our faith, not believe blindly. 1 Peter 3:15
But sanctify the Lord God in your hearts, and be ready always to give an answer to every man who asketh you a reason for the hope that is in you, with meekness and fear.
Sarah Smile why do you have “faith” in God then?
"In the kindest and most respectful manner possible: I'll see you in Hell." That made me chuckle. See ya there!
You are one smart guy! Thanks for your videos. Great questions.

Funny fact: If you have a Christian video with questions for atheists, you find all the questions answered countless times in the comment section. Never the other way around.
"Why do men have nipples?"
Asking the real questions
Good points and so nice to see one so young advertising the Beach Boys.
I love your videos! So many good points
The real first commandment of Christianity is "DON'T ASK QUESTIONS!"
Hey Larry, I think that's a valid statement and an unfortunate one. I am a Christian and I absolutely think that people should ask questions. I will also say that many of the questions asked and responses given are genuinely good ones. I will say personally that I have a lot of questions on why God operates the way he does and I just don't get it sometimes. I have trouble with that.
The real question is, how can you still be religious if you are acknowledging that questions are important, when you're saying you yourself sometimes can't understand why something happens. Sounds like you might become an atheist after all.
Illyasviel von Einzbern because no one can understand what God does after all God is infinitely more wise than us human comprehension isn’t possible. God just wants us to have faith in him
More like Islam I have been Christian all my life and have never been told that soo stop assuming stuff
@@DekoDeroman You're a particular case, in most religion if not all they tell you to not ask questions.
The idea that the common structures in animals point to a common ancestor is called Structural Homology. This at one time seemed like great evidence for evolution, but if these similar anatomical structures pointed to a common ancestor, then why doesn’t it show up on the genes of these animals with similar features? Michael Denton, in the book Evolution: A Theory in Crisis, says “The evolutionary basis of homology is perhaps even more severely damaged by the discovery that apparently homologous structures are specified by quite different genes in different species…With the demise of any sort of straightforward explanation for homology one of the major pillars of the evolution theory has become so weakened that its value as evidence for evolution is greatly diminished.” Just something I learned from my Biology book.
I agree that it's a good idea to read books on biology, as I find books have a far higher information content. Have you ever read Aaron Yilmaz's book "Deliver Us from Evolution? A Christian Biologist's In-Depth Look at the Evidence Reveals a Surprising Harmony Between Science and God" by Aaron Yilmaz. Yilmaz is an evangelical Christian who is also trained in evolutionary biology. He has both a B.S. and an M.S. in Biology.
THAT WAS AN AWESOME VIDEO!!
Such a great video!
Alex I love what you are doing, keep it up brother! Thank you so much!
The why would god allow the devil to exist..that Question at 10 yrs old got me to start my journey towards becoming an agnostic/Athiest. .it's immoral to punish us (assuming it's true that he exists which likely he doesn't ) for our imperfect nature, deprive us from knowledge..he created us this way..sounds like a capricious office temp with a bad attitude as George Carlin said lol..
Lastly, it seems like it's a twitter competition between god and the devil to see who has the most followers..lol .this likely is all bs..
or christian.
The one who will not use the rod hates his son, but the one who loves him disciplines him diligently.
Proverbs 13:24 HCSB
So if God is listing to his own wisdom discipline comes out of love, and I still don't understand why people think they can tell God what is moral and isn't moral he made me and owns me he's the Potter and im his clay if he doesn't like the jar of clay when he is done with me he can throw me out if he so chooses! But who are you, a mere man, to talk back to God? Will what is formed say to the one who formed it, “Why did you make me like this? ” Or has the potter no right over the clay, to make from the same lump one piece of pottery for honor and another for dishonor? And what if God, desiring to display His wrath and to make His power known, endured with much patience objects of wrath ready for destruction? And what if He did this to make known the riches of His glory on objects of mercy that He prepared beforehand for glory -
Romans 9:20-23 HCSB
This basically sums it up perfectly he has every right over us and we have no right over him. But even though he does have every right over us he still chose for some reason to come to earth and endure suffering here just FOR US TO BE FORGIVEN like the God of the intire universe decided he wanted to come down here and die so that everyone who believes might go to heaven. When you look at it in that way it starts to show how truly loving God is for even letting us live, much less giving us a chance for forgiveness, and even less than that one that I don't even have to do anything good or bad to receive its just a gift and he gave it to us all I have to do is say thanks and open the box XD hope maybe that helps \:D/

I always had only one question for Christians: Why is nobody able to present any proof, any convincing arguments or even a single rational argument for this or that god to be more real than all the countless other gods?
We Christians "walk by faith not by sight"
2 Corinthians 5:7
Christianity isn't the only religion
BeCaUsE gOd wOrKs iN mYsTeRiOuS wAyS dUh!
To answer your question
The proof you demand must conform to your worldview which inconveniently makes it impossible for God to exist so no arguement can ever satisfy you
There's 100+ arguments and many other religions why don't you debunk them all for me and convince me religion makes no sense
Atheism in general cannot justify morality
@@Alex-yr8iy If you can prove something, worldviews are irrelevant, because you could demonstrate that what you believe is correct.
I think it´s more than obvious that nobody can prove the existence of a god or even anything supernatural at all. It would be in all the news and people like James Randie would pay you millions of dollars. So forget about proof, the same goes for convincing evidence.
After 30 years of asking theists for convincing evidence and none ever presented i am also fairly sure that no such thing exists, that leaves you theists with nothing but arguments for your gods to be real, and you still fail to even come up with a single rational one.
Can you really not see how unreal ridiculous you sound when you keep claiming that there are even hundreds but you are not able to present one, not even a single one?
Ok, you mentioned morality, so let´s debunk that.
We evolved as a social species, like most species have, that haven´t gotten extinct, because it is beneficial for survival. And we are intelligent, so we understand that when we do not like to get punched in the face, other people don´t like that as well, so we do not run around punching other people and they do the same and we can all live in peace. Not so complicated and not even you need an ancient book or a god to tell you that.
But on the other hand, you tell me what is moral? Is it moral to kill people for working on the sabbath? Killing girls for having sex before marriage? Killing gays? Having slaves? Killing children for calling a bold man bold (2.kings2)?
Q 2. All animals are related and descend from a common ancestor. This is why they appear to be related, they are. This is not inconsistent with biblical views on origins, it is of course inconsistent with the rubbish talked by young earth creationist, who force their own agenda for their own deluded reasons.

I would love to answer all these questions. They are decent questions and they deserve an answer. I appreciate your calm tone and your respect. If you would like we could discuss these things over skype.
Why would God demand we worship him yet fail to provide contemporary evidence that he even exists?
That’s faith
🤦♂️
Q 3, vestigial organs can be much debated, however it is reasonable that there are some as atavisms from ancient ancestral species.
Well done ,yet again.
Why if we are created in his image do we sin and all look different from one another?
Goose bumps are a very poor argument, they help with communication for example. They also have some effect at increasing the boundary layer, even in modern humans.
I am an atheist myself but I know the answer to the "send Jesus" question. An answer a smart christian would give:
Jesus is the archetypal hero. Jesus is the one figure we can all look up to. Jesus is the man every Christian should be like. He is ideal, he is the ultimate model. At least in the christian doctrine anyway. So sending Jesus would make perfect sense. Not only can god forgive the people through sending his son but he also provides an archetypal story, an archetypal hero for the people to look up to and to strive to be like.
What do you think? Does this make sense?
Actually, the answer an intelligent Christian would give is, "You're right. This religion makes no sense after at all." It's an entertaining little story and all, but we don't live in a story. We live in reality, and in reality, it makes absolutely no sense for a god to punish or reward a species for being exactly the way he designed it to be.
Anicetus Caesar That is spot on, humans do look to other humans as inspirations (easy examples would be good parents) and having a person who made a sacrifice for the sake of the species that caused him harm gives inspiration to people. There are other aspects to it but you explained the brunt of it rather well, great job.
Since you gave your religious stance I'll give mine, I'm a devout Catholic and I do commend you for representing a good Christian perspective as well as you did.
Anicetus Caesar yes your answer does make sense but only if attributable to a real person, not a mythical figure. I'm sure you'll agree.
Ultimate model who said slaves obey your masters and defended all that Old Testament nonsense? Nice try, but we've clearly evolved better role models since then. You'd think a supreme being would have known that.
Make this a series, asking questions about the bible
***** A lot of his videos are based on other videos (Usually people misunderstanding stuff), or looking at one big thing. I want there to be a series just based on asking these smaller questions about Christianity, and maybe other religions
Why would he make plants need nitrogen more than most other nutrients, while also making them unable to use the form of nirtogen that makes up almost 80 percent of the atmosphere? Why make plants obtain oxygen from the atmosphere for respiration when it is a product of photosynthesis, and the same with carbon dioxide from respiration in order to do photosynthesis?
Beach Boys - you have good taste in music (:
OK I'll give it a go ..... could it be that he doesn't exist ?
impossible
NOPE. God doesn't exist. 😐
Regarding the point about "why did God make all animals appear to be interrelated", I assume creating an animal is like creating a computer program. He probably started off with one, and rather than start again from the ground up, He reused the code and made slight modifications, in much the same way that EA and Ubisoft do with all their games. Although I think with the platypus he got lazy and just copy/pasted from Stack Overflow.
God damn, that hardened-heart pharaoh bit gets me every time

well yes but actually no
Nobody ask to be born and yet we have to put up with this bull shit
Why did he create eye parasites (onchocerca volvulus) that cause terrible itching and blindness?
What does god need with a starship?
The ultimate question: Why would God create some of us with brains that would doubt his existence and then torture us for eternity for the brain that he gave us?
He didn't create you like this, you chose to be an aethist, remember, free will. You chose to disobey God, and therefore deserve the consequences.
@@kadensmith2935we cannot chose a path that has already been preconceived. We are merely following a script that his mind already created.
Secondly god created us in his own image, which means that all of this, everything is him. Because of him.
Question 4: God could’ve created any version of the universe that he wanted. He chose this version (according to some) because this universe, where free beings who will mostly go their own way exist, is the best one in which to produce real love which is the supreme ethic.
But if God wanted us to choose our own way via free will, why would He punish us for not choosing the one He prefers, in the form of Hell? If you're asked to turn right or turn left and get killed, do you really have a choice at all?
Well yes, you have freewill. Just like smoking and drinking, people choose to drink and smoke even though it killing him. We are not Puppets and god will not force anyone to come to him.he just telling you the truth in right or wrong and the end result.
That was so good!
Good questions I have oppinoins on some of them although if I may suggest my favorite humorous answer: "To keep scientists from getting bored" covers quite a few of them. Legit? no but I find it funny.
Thanks to the information age and science that help the young generations understandable, reasonable and clever-able. We need more young people like CosmicSkeptic to change the world and the black hole minded.
Atheism is growing among GenZ so yeah we getting there😂
We can't know everything, because if we knew everything, we would all be God, which would mean no ones God.
When everyone's super.. no one will be...
+tejay108 😂
so when we know everything, we wont exist
Hulian Sells Sandals, replace "God" with any other deity. For example, "We can't know everything, because if we knew everything, we would all be Thor, which means no ones Thor."
Perhaps you can apply that to mythical creatures as well.
"We can't know everything, because if we knew everything, we would all be the supreme unicorn, which would mean no one is the supreme unicorn."
And no, this is not for disproving God. One cannot disprove God just like one cannot disprove anything that has no evidence. Unicorns, or time travel, etc. (not necessarily because of improbability, but simply because of lack of evidence.)
Hulian_Sells_ Sandals We wouldn't be God though.
Knowing stuff doesn't make you able to create universes
Does anyone know of a youtuber (christian) who has responded to this video? I'd like to see the answers to these questions.
Great videos...you have another subscriber. Thanks!
Noah was there to warn you that you are headed for destruction due to your sin and disobedience to God. He loved you so much, He sent a very strong warning to you. (And yes, He loved those people as much as He loves you, but they would not love Him in return.)
If I love someone I wish the best for them, regardless of their feelings toward me. I don't, for example, destroy them and everyone they love. If your god does this he deserves scorn not worship
#whywouldgod Be so hypocritical in the Bible?
+Kid Sheldon The Devil doesn't justify his actions either, you know...
Bianca di Angelo ok hold on, look up the definition of hypocrite. It says a "person" that indulges in hypocrisy. God isn't a person; not saying that he's hypocritical but what I'm saying is hypocrite and God don't match up because God is not a person, God is a spirit. And second of all, to the human eye and editors / rewriters of the Bible may have changed up the words or rearranged words to make it seem complicated or difficult to understand in the human aspect of it. Third of all, you're not smarter than God you have nothing backing up why you think God is a hypocrite or as a synonym says, a "deceiver". The devil is known as a deceiver proving the fact that God is not a hypocrite since he is the OPPOSITE of a deceiver
@Quethr god learns just like us in the Old Testament there was a city that was just full of horrible people and god reach out to them not in the form of Jesus but any way possible such as a dream and angle or so on and told them I am your god and am here to help if you worship and listen to me we can fix this problem and no body did and they all had to face smite and that not in the form of lighting or a power like that it came form him casting things such as disease and accidents which got rid of there awful people who were murders and thief’s and so on. You probably don’t even know much about god but you just think he not real but he is trust me. He will forgive many and not to mention god said he would not do things like that again just remember the devil plays a role in earth to
@CosmicSkeptic I would like to do justice to your reasonable question but this forum does not permit sufficient room and my comments lately on RUclips tend to get truncated or clipped off after the 4th line so I try to limit responses now to that length. There are answers to those questions though. If you are interested let me know and I will see how I can pass on that information (which understandably is quite detailed). So too with the remainder of your questions which are equally complicated to answer in too brief a format yet still deserving of an answer. See my aforementioned suggestion.
Surprisingly enough, most of these are actually great questions
Ofcourse, some are also dogwater
#WhyWouldGod make a forbidden tree which bears the fruit of the knowledge of good and evil - and therefore sin? If free will existed even before Eve ate the fruit, God simply could have allowed us free will *and* freedom of sin by never creating this tree in the first place.
also #WhyWouldGod punish adam and eve for disobeying him, when disobeying him is a sin, thus they werent able to know it was a sin before they ate of the tree, which god knew they would eat already.
#WhyWouldGod even create us, supposedly as a "test", if he knew exactly what, why, when, where, and how everything would ever happen?
Alec Joseph Actually, it's supposed to be taken 100% seriously. I guarantee that most Christians do believe in it literally. Also, grow up.
+Alec Joseph Sheriff is right I believe that God's word is him speaking when jesus refers to the bible had "have you not read what was spoken to you" normally read goes with written and heard with spoken, but Jesus says read what was spoken meaning this is God's word that was actually said through people carried along by the holy spirit in written form. So yes I belive the bible litteraly when that was the intention of God and metaphorically when that was his intention. What someone means by their words is up to them not me, so I don't get to interpret I have to read it how it was intended!
+Alec Joseph Oh, so very Christian of you. I like that most of you theists just bury yourselves in a deeper hole the more you talk.
You need to grow up because you can't speak to others without insulting and cursing towards them. That, along with your absolutely ignorant comment, have shown everyone reading this that you're an immature kid that has no idea to talk to others, and obviously can't think for themselves.
Please, go and educate yourself, then come back and have a productive conversation that'll hopefully result in you learning to speak to others.
I'd also like to add, Christianity is based upon a few separate things: The creation story, the life and death of Christ, and the concept of Heaven/Hell. Without believing those things literally, you aren't practicing Christianity, as defined in the Bible itself.
Please, learn what you claim to be your own religion.
Jesus Love you my son🌹

By the way, you cannot see in hell, it's totally darkness in there (please don't choose to go there)

Yeah Alex. We'll see each other in hell. Reminds me of the last scene from "the unforgiven" where the sheriff, having been shot by Clint eastwood's character, says to him, "I'll see you in hell william munney" to which, william munney calmly but surely answers, "yeah".
Another gem of a video. Keep it up!
That shameless self promo at the end made laugh so hard omg XD il this guy
Are you actually looking for answers or are you just asking questions out of derision and skepticism?
I reckon these are rhetorical questions to highlight the invalidity of the bible and the immorality of the monstoroys Yahweh
There's nothing wrong with a little skepticism. And we don't need to depend on ancient religious texts for the answers to all of our problems.
@@samuelthrift7282 you missed my point.
@@robertd7717 I suppose he does both, as we all should. Everyone of us ought to seek answers and stay skeptical of what we've been taught.
@@robertd7717, Cosmic Skeptic is trying to get people to think. Is that bad?
Why would God reveal himself, to someone who is not searching?
Why wouldn't he reveal himself to someone who did search?
Funny... I was searching for seventeen years before I realized God was fictional. I kinda felt gullible once I accepted that.
For the record He's revealed himself to me
***** nice
Arnvlm What if it's the opposite?
Nice T-shirt and that Pink Floyd's Darkside Of The Moon album photo on the Wall!!
Off topic: mind talking about your book collection behind u?
Who said that???
Show us the verses to back up your questions please🌹
So the question is #whywouldgod
The most probable answer is: Because he does not exist.
The video is called "Some Questions For The Christian God", I think that explains it. Some people enjoy ant farms, and children also seem to like dinosaurs, I think this god, or gods, also must have liked dinosaurs, as if they exist(ed) they played with them for millions of years. But like dinosaurs, bears are also cute and likable, unless your find then actually near you. Maybe you also wouldn't want thousands of ants crawling over you.
I believe god does exit can you explain this to who put us here and how are we here the universe actually started at one point and that one point is infinite. Science can’t make a baby science can’t make a eye. Science can’t explain why were here but god can. We’re here to worship him and he’s here to forgive us and watch over us. There is no evidence god exists and there no evidence he does while he’s there is actual physical Evidence next god does exist such as artifact form the time Jesus cam to earth. But my point is god is loving and god knows what he is doing
Man.. You're brilliant.
I want to hear your thoughts on the book of Mormon, after reading it ideally. Because it has a different set of problems than the Bible. What I mean is some Bible and typical Christian problems are solved, yet it has quite a few of its own.
Harambe is the real God here
I remember seeing a woman with cancer being interviewed by a reporter in a hospital. She says she believes that GOD will heal her. That there's nothing impossible with HIM. Then she followed it by asking the kind-hearted people for financial help because she can't afford the chemo therapy and the hospital fees. I was told by friends that I was mean when they saw me laugh, but that was hilarious.
Please read and review Quran the same way you do to Bible. I’m really curious to know your idea about it.
Why does God place a tree in the middle of the garden when he does not want anyone to eat from such a tree?
I'm fully aware of both explanations of near death experiences. I'm open to the possibility of an afterlife being just a hallucination, but if it's just a hallucination, how can it be explained that people who have been "dead" for a while come back and explain everything with perfect detail when they haven't been to that emergency room nor met the doctors and know every detail?
(Yes I'm aware that certain "drugs" can produce a similar result. And yes I injured my back years ago and I was given a strong muscle relaxer and felt like I was "lite", but I was in my place on my bed.)
I'm open to all explanations of why NDEs occur.
It's possible that there's an afterlife.
I believe in God. Why did God send his son to go through a brutal death for the forgiveness of sins?
Jesus Christ was God in the flesh and never once sinned, but loved us so much that he was willing to pay the price for human sin. Yeah God could have just forgiven everyone's sin, but there's more to it than that. Jesus became that bridge for our sin nature so we can connect with God.
I respect those people who don't believe because a lack of evidence.
What kind of evidence would you need to experience or see that would get you to believe?
Have you checked out archeological evidence of Jesus Christ?
Peace, love and respect.
Most Near Death Experiences people have don’t line up with scripture . God can give people vision during near death experiences. But who knows the people who claimed to have died outside of a hospital actually were revived? Can God give people Vision during on the brink of death. Yes. New Research suggests that scientists may have actually near-death experiences are may actually be rooted in the brain by psychedelics. Their is no physical or archaeological evidence for Jesus, but the lack of archeological or physical evidence doesn’t mean a person doesn’t exist, it means the person has never marked the archaeological record. Their are historical documents proving the existence of him. Even if the honesty of the people who had these experiences can’t be doubted. These experiences should be viewed with skepticism. Who knows if they were extremely vivid dreams, hallucination, an actual experience , or even a Vision from God? Only the father knows. Near Death Experiences should be viewed skeptically and most importantly, Biblically.
Simple, God only cares for people that are USEFUL for his glory. Many people suffer for so long and then saves and keep other people in comfortable life just for these people in comfortable life to "fulfil" God's plan to "save" the needy. But doesn't hear the "needy's" prayers for help. He plays favorite
My guess is that maybe god isnt so powerful. Maybe god could just create the "big bang" the begining of everything, and then he could only just sit back and watch what happens. Maybe he is all knowing but not all doing. Kind of like a seer. Maybe my imagination it just too big.
Also I am so happy with how much your profile has grown. You are truly inteligent and I enjoy your videos. Keep up the good work.
you already know this i bet but what you described is deism. An idea that actually makes some sense, unlike christianity.
+Ryan “Skel” Wilson Thank you i did not know that was actually a belief.
No problem! ^_^
+rose obsidian Most of the founding fathers of the United States were likely deists, if not actually atheists. Jefferson, especially, was deist at a minimum.
I have a former significant other who was shocked when I pointed that out to her. When I told her that the US wasn't founded on Christianity or any religion, a point which my dad and I have been arguing over the last year or so, she tried asking me where then did we get in god we trust and one nation under god. That's when I told her about Eisenhauer and 1954. Then I went on to point out that many of the Founding Fathers weren't even Christians and that even those who were didn't want the new land to be based on one religion because they were all well aware of the dangers that poses. But whereas I absolutely reject Christianity and all the other mainstream religions I could actually accept Deism as being at least reasonably possible.
I have a few questions of my own regardless of whether it is the Christian God or not. Why did you create this universe? How did you create this universe? Why don't we get to choose if we want to be born in this life or not? Why are we here? What is our purpose? Why must we die? What, if anything, lies beyond death? Are we our whole body? Are we just our brain? Are we the energy that moves, contracts, and expands the muscles? Are we a soul? If that is the case, what is a soul? What are we. Are we this body or is it just a shell for something completely separate that we just so happen to have bodily control of? If reincarnation exists, do our personalities carry over from past lives? I could literally write an entire freaking 500 page book if I could only do a ~20 minute interview with him/her/it.
great one, keep up the bloody obvious
If god is omnipotent, then he has the ability to force himself to forget something, but if he is omniscient, then he can't forget something because he knows everything.
If god is omnipotent, then he has the ability to force himself to not be on the sidewalk, but if he is omnipresent, then he can't not be on the sidewalk because he is always everywhere.
If god is omnipotent he can create a boulder which he can't lift... wait...
You go off and become the next Chris Hitchens okay? Good.
You got what it takes Mate!
I don't know why did Satan damaged my brain so badly,
That I can't read the Bible at all,
I read a Bible but I keep forgetting every time I read one Sentence Of The Bible verse,
I read the Bible verse and then I go to another verse and already forgot you the first verse that I read,
my brain is so damaged and I don't know how to fix it every time I try to read it.
I forget every time,
I tried reading it I tried to,
I Read Matthew and Mark and all different kinds of things,
I even my ears are damaged so badly, when I listen to a video of Bible being read to my ears
I can't identify and convert the the words that are said to my ears,
and convert them to my brain that says that it's god speaking to you.
but I can't hear it at all my ears are damaged my brain is damaged and I forgot everything about how to read,
how to surrender, how to fully surrender
,
I don't understand how to surrender fully how how do people do it I try doing it myself but my brain is damaged so so badly, that my brain in incapable of getting getting faith,
I even I tried to fix my brain, but my brain is like 1% broken,
I can't fix it,
100% fixed it's,
100% damaged, Jesus Christ can't fix it, that's the reason why I can't fix my mistakes, I want my brain to be fixed back to normal, then I would understand how to fully surrender my life,
when I was a kid my brain was 100% working and I would I was able to connect to God's voice but now that I'm 19 my voice in my head and my brain is broken
and now I can't think how to surrender myself,
I understand how to surrender in the flesh, but not the spirit.
to believe in Jesus Christ.
My "brain" tries to convert the words "fully surrender"
my brains tries to convert it, but it's keeps misfiring.
and I losing the ability to to know how to do it, that's the reason why I can't be saved by Jesus Christ, I try, I try, I try, I try, I try, but still nothing works I don't know what to do now I don't want to go to hell but my brain is so damaged I just want my brain to be back to normal and fixed so I can be able to fully surrender to God and live a holy life but with my adhd and my brain damage, everything is impossible for me right now,
I can't fix this please help me, I don't know what to do I will die in and go to hell because of my brain is so damaged in me but I will I will be tortured 10,000 infinity years I don't know what to do at all what will I do I tried everything,
I tried even this into 100% brain fixing meditation but still my brain is zero percent working it not working at all when it my mind is broken, the bible words are not working, please help me it's not working for me, I'm sorry please forgive amen
Like this
God jesus ≠ convert ≠ damaged brain
Fully surrender ≠ convert ≠ my fully damaged brain
#1 answer- To show how great and grand He is. His creation is beautiful and infinite because he is.
#2 The Bible says that to God a hundred years is like a second and a second is like a hundred years. God isn’t affected by time because he exists outside of it.
#3 same as above
#4 God’s creation has order and is intellectually designed. If life on earth came by chance and as a result of random explosions and reaction then you might expect to see more sporadic genetic makeups
#5 vestigial traits are somewhat rare and any of them could be explained by cause other than macro evolution such as micro evolution.
#6 His justice is on display when he punishes the wicked. He would have wiped it Noah and his family because they are also sinners, but he showed mercy to them. This may not be ‘fair’ but it is just. See chosen by God by RC Sproul.
I could answer the rest but I don’t have the time and I also doubt anyone will see this so I’m done. If you genuinely cared about knowing the answers to any of these questions you would have done the research instead of sounding condescending when asking the questions.
I go to a school that isn't officially a religious school, but about 90% of the students worship God in some way or form, I'm going to be bringing up a few of these "Why would God" questions to some of them. I was actually bullied for 3 years because I didn't go to church. My mother was angry but, unfortunately was powerless. I started to think that if God wanted for everyone to treat everyone else good, no matter what they believe in why was I being bullied for not going? I eventually watched more atheist fact videos and decided that I was an atheist. I could never tell my family because just about everyone on my dads side is/went to a catholic church, its not helping that my aunts a nun either. I know I'm a but late but I just wanted to thank you for helping me see what's actually going on in the religious world.
Malikin Kanin you're an atheist. God is reaching out to you and you don't let him in. God cares so much for you but u don't care for him and God never said no matter what you believe in. Wrong is wrong. God said he will take up all your vengeance just have faith in him and change your life
"Bullied for not going to church." You've missed the message here, Jayden. That is an incredibly sad yet hilarious statement on the immorality so often inherent in religious belief: terrible acts disguised as morality and "caring." Faith is a terribly unreliable path to the truth, as the faithful demonstrate every day.
5. God appearing: how would it be faith then ? how would it be a test then ? imagine a school test where you were given the exact questions and model answers and left studying and memorizing them for the whole year. Would it make any sense ?
