    I don’t know about “fulfilling the law” or anything, but Jesus’s sacrifice was indeed to deal with the original sin that Eve created when she ate from the apple.

    So god had himself killed by humans, to redeem the humans for being faulty and sinful, because god made humans faulty and sinful?

    I think now is safe to say WTF?

    you are going by the law…Jesus came to destroy to old testament law…..shut up…

    Video is based on proof-texting and misinformation about the Old Testament. God is holy and finds our sins repulsive. God doesn’t owe us an explanation for everything. Some day, “we shall all stand before the judgment seat of Jesus Christ and give account to a Holy God for our actions.” II Corinthians 5: 6-10. The choice is yours – you will give account to God for what you believe and do with your life. No blaming it on poor behavior of Christians, or never having read the Bible for yourself.

    The bottom line is that one day we will all answer to a Holy God, contradictions in the Bible or not. God does not owe us an explanation for everything.

    Jesus said, cast the first stone if you can dude, and love was the true law.
    the old testament was harsh and repulsive to him also. in Mathew he said moses was wrong.
    the bible is just a reference.66 + books the catholics put together. with Constantine,. the old ways were harsh.2,500+ years ago when the old books were written
    genesis is the one book i think is the most important.and i think that is one of the oldest books ever written.
    even before Aristotle,and Greek drama, i wouldn’t risk my soul by atheistic proselytizing if i were you.
    you are closer to God than you know when you seek to prove God is not everything,and He knows it.
    keep lookin bra.try to step out of the box if you can,check out the higgs boson, opposites and=s,up and down.quarks leptons and muon’s,matter and antimatter, asymmetry, stuff like that,you’ll see it
    if you open one eye, although you are right, people freak out on the book and place odd values on it
    repulsive like a mirror.is more like it.
    the 4 forces are just one,compression or expansion .energy to matter conversions at free will,
    and, stuff like that.becomes proof of god.
    your search will prove it to you sooner or later,i have faith in that much because,
    you seem to read the book alot. so you must still be searching.
    try talking to God straight up, He talks back quite a bit more than you might think.
    ya kinda gotta look for his answers around you though. lightning bolts usually are not the way he talks back.
    i like thinking free and looking to nature for the answers.
    the book has it’s place. it is the mirror.
    peace out

    Why, why must you verse yourself in it at all? so you can change somebody’s beliefs
    why do you feel the need to do that? to save the world from the bad Christians?
    think about what you are saying for a minute.
    what does it matter what Christians or anybody thinks if there is no God.
    when death comes it’s over, why waste your time arguing with what you say are fools?
    humanitarian purposes? simple debate,? thats just funny to me.
    peace out

    I do not believe God wrote any of the bible. i believe man wrote the books.
    although the wisdom in the books comes from interacting with God,language translations and people
    adding things to it for control issues confuses the messages in it sometimes.
    i just feel sorry for moses having to rewrite and edit those stones he broke.and,
    can you imagine mis spelling a word right at the end.
    i also do not believe the only way to God is through Christ. God talked with lots of people before Jesus.
    although Jesus paid the price for our sins and we need to accept that gift,and john 316 is true.
    God will still interact with us.and if He does,we will get the message of Christ.and salvation.

    well if you read what the book says Jesus said,He referred to Genesis quite a bit,seeds and sin the garden satin was the tree of knowledge and Jesus was the tree of life and the word was God.and if you read genisis close,form a physics point of view you see opposites and equals,some kind of medical procedure,the evolution of words and men made by God and men who evolved from the seas.
    which is where jews and gentiles come form. the big bang among other things, time,earth ages.

    When Jesus said he came to fulfill the law,, he ended the punishment of moses law by his crucifixion.
    in Matthew he says moses was wrong. the law now is love your brother and do unto others.
    the bible is repulsive, because it mirrors human behavior at it’s worst.,the message is not lost by
    how cruel the old law was,.the bible is 66+ books of reference and not all there is to the subject.
    people have attributed more to it than should be,that is true.
    the subject is God and salvation of man.everything after Genesis is a repeat of mans bad behavior.
    the new testament brings the new understanding.God is a loving being ,eliminating the bible would be like
    erasing the history of the Holocaust.

    also,,you left out a few things like,,the song of Solomon, Ecclesiastes,,Psalms,,Proverbs, some of the best writing man has done. i don’t think your gonna prove an Atheistic view is better.
    i would suggest that a man would have no reason to to live and let live unless God was in the picture.
    in fact what would stop one from killing another for no other reason than fun.
    just like it used to be when the OT was written.
    and where would Hope be if it wasn’t for salvation?
    i would look for God in modern physics if you know what i mean. keep the bible as reference.

    i would suggest everybody read the books of the bible, get a better understanding of what is being said.
    some of it is slow reading, some of it is fascinating and inspiring, then when someone tells you
    it should be banned from society, you will be able to agree or disagree from your own opinion.

    this has nothing to do with being agnostic.. this is gnostic.. this is a gnostic atheism at its worse.. this is as bad as gnostic theists at their worst.. in the face of this ignorant approach to the argument dont continue to ignorant misuse of the word agnostic to mean a system of belief.. it reflects other systems of belief and how open minded you are about them..

  • Chris

    This is Gnostic Atheism at its worst.. as bad as any Gnostic Christian..

    only form of Atheism that should be shared as an Agnostic Atheism…

    sick of folks thinking agnostic means a form of belief.. like its own religion or something.. agnostic means open minded gnostic means close minded.. has nothing to do with the specifics of what is believed

    I don’t find the bible repulsive, but I should find it in the Fiction/mythology section of any book store or library with the rest of the world’s fairy tales.

    Its not just Americans! You really need to stop thinking the USA is the centre of the Universe! The internet goes beyond the USA!

    Actually, according to legend, Jesus said “I would not change one jewish law”. Jesus was born and raised, and died, a Jew. If Cristians wanted to follow in the footsteps of Jesus, they would become Jews… instead, Cristians worship the book of the Pope.

    According to that same legend i.e. the new testament, he goes off to say things that are the complete opposite of tons of Jewish laws from the old testament. Looks like the church’s hypocrisy does have a source in the bible, the J man himself.

    Mostly because religion plays a large role in our society.  To discount it would mean to further advance our society.  How many politicians are forced to vote a particular way because they wish to appease Christianity?  The obvious downside is that without the fear of God, our society has other issues to tend to.

    I thought it was a good video, but the speaker kinda pissed me off when he took IShVH’s advice to gouge eye-balls literally, it should seem obviouse that the Master was using clever language to make a profoundly wise statement.  Basicly, this Jesus character was here only preaching self-controll.  The fires of Hell could be easily be treated as metaphore, especially by the Jewish populous he was speaking to, who don’t believe in a literal Hell.

    lol.  I beleive God is a Huge Dick, literally!  Well, a Holy Dick-Vagina.

    Chris, “Gnostic” doese not at all mean “close-minded”.  It comes from the Greek word “Gnosis” which means “knowledge”.  The Gnostics, whether Christian, Jewish, or Hellenistic, are defined by thier practices of “having Gnosis”, refering to DIRECT KNOWLEDGE, as in a mystical trance, as opposed to teachingss baised on faith (normal religions).

    Not being a psychopath keeos me from randomly killing people for fun.  Prison is what keeps me doing it for a reason.
