“If there really was one true god, it should be a singular composite of every religion’s gods, an uber-galactic super-genius, and the ultimate entity of the entire cosmos. If a being of that magnitude ever wrote a book, then there would only be one such document; one book of God. It would be dominant everywhere in the world with no predecessors or parallels or alternatives in any language, because mere human authors couldn’t possibly compete with it. And you wouldn’t need faith to believe it, because it would be consistent with all evidence and demonstrably true, revealing profound morality and wisdom far beyond contemporary human capacity. It would invariably inspire a unity of common belief for every reader. If God wrote it, we could expect no less. But what we see instead is the very opposite of that.” - AaronRa

LOL. IT'S A GOTCH ! When their dogma stumbles over it self .

[davidnorwood]

Isn’t this the same argument about people living on earth? So kids die of cancer? So what as long as the go to Heaven, right? This is your argument?

[MrMagaManTron]

His argument is flawed, because he is using the incorrect definition of sacrifice. In the Biblical sense it means “The act of offering something to a deity in propitiation or homage” not the modern sense he is implying as “The act of giving up something highly valued for the sake of something else considered to have a greater value or claim.”

Christ humbled himself to the level of man and let man do atrocious things to him, ultimately becoming an innocent substitute for us. These confusions are typically addressed quickly once terms are understood in the proper context.

I am very thankful Jesu took on my judgment so that I can be spared. Jesus is amazing! Thank you God!

[JamieAllen]

this guy gets worse every single time he argues anything

[ebunny]

What a flawed argument. The fact that He is God makes His sacrifice even that much more significant. He's God!! He did not have to do anything. The fact that Jesus Christ was tortured as a human being, means He in human form, A God himself, allowed himself to be tortured, says all you need to know. And it is ONLY that sacrifice that saves you from hell. And yet you argue that it isn't significant??? A sacrifice that saves all humanity from hell. Might honestly be the stupidest thing I've ever heard or read.

[ryanboscoe]

God may exist. But if he is just going to solve every single problem in the universe whats the purpose of even living? May as well be born into heaven 😂 think about your talking points

[richardbolter]

U have been rejecting the Holy spirit and it shows I pray to reconcile

[robbietrout]

The sacrifice lies in the fact that he didn’t have to endure any of it, yet he chose to do so anyway. He did it for the very people who nailed him to the cross.

It's extremely easy to say that you'd die to end world hunger when it's a hypothetical scenario that you know you will never have to face.

How about selling everything you own and giving it to the poor? It won't solve world hunger, but someone who would die to end world hunger surely selling everything they own and giving it to the poor would be a small sacrifice that they would have no problem making

[joshwoodliff]

In actuality he wouldn't do any of these sacrifices. Ignorant of the God of the Bible.

[johnnytwoshits]

That's a short sided argument my friend... The fact that prophecy was written then came to life the thousands of eye witnesses of the miracles performed by Jesus where testament to the Father, his life ending here the way it did was so we could all have a chance to make it to heaven, fella you speak as if Jesus is the only one that is making it to heaven. My friend you have missed the point but since you are pointing out your truths here's one for you, your sin is for you to carry and to answer for but when you try to convince others to sin your sin now you are a misaligned vessel working for the wrong team, there is a score being kept, there will be winners and there will be losers
