This guy is pretty, he’s actually really smart. I wonder where he got all of his knowledge, anyone know? I do notice he does not have all the answers and he doesn’t pretend to have all of the answers. I once visited a church Bible study that had his teachings and picked up a few good points but no real answers. I found another place that does have all the answers and can explain the Bible from Genesis to Revelation. I just watched this video because it came up as something I might be interested in.

"Science can't answer the question 'who' created it" is pretty loaded. Why "who"? Why not "what", which we know? And science is honest: if science doesn't know the answer, it says: "We don't know;" religion, on the other hand, imposes its god on the "don't know"-that's fallacious. Every mystery solved about the universe that our ancestors claimed was supernatural has turned out not to be; explanations that do not include a god, or do not need a god.

Harry Potter was also very very popular, but it wasn't true.

[@anthonyhulse1248]

And a few years later no one really cares about Potter. But 2,000 years later we’re still reading the bible.

@@anthonyhulse1248 on point thank you

[@burntgod7165]

@@anthonyhulse1248 We are also reading Gilgamesh and The Iliad. Does that make them true? (People do actually care about Harry Potter: it's still spinning off movies, plays, theme parks; so you're bitterly wrong there).

Listen to what he says, then stop and think about every claim and assertion that he makes. None of it stands up to scrutiny. He makes ridiculous assertions, such as that the existence of the universe demonstrates that it was personally created by the tribal god of the Israelites. He doesn't phrase it like that, but that is what he means. He lies about Psalm 19:10 - it does not say the Bible is more precious than gold, as he states. If he trained at theological college he should know that. He should also know that the gospels are anonymous, and that Paul and the author of John preached a very different message to that which Jesus taught. I could go on, but I'm now boring myself.
