I’m sorry dude science, philosophy, archeology, mathematics, history, biology give tons of evidence for a creator God and Christianity is the most evidentially robust faith on all the planet. It’s also way more evidentially robust than atheism. You’ve even shown that evidence in past episodes for genesis. That’s just the tip of the iceberg.

The story of Persephone and how she became queen of the underworld has to do with Greek customs at the time. Persephone accepting even such a slight thing as pomegranate seed still meant that she had accepted Hades hospitality and was therefore bound to him. Hence, beware of Greeks bearing gifts! The implication is that they will demand something in return.

Afaik most stories depict Persephone as pretty chill with being the queen of the underworld. Hades "kidnapping" her could be a translation thing, since he had Zeus' permission, just not Demeter's. Might not be up to modern standards, but Hades and Persephone are as funcitonal a couple as you're going to get in Greek mythology.

As a recreational belief, I like to think that deities in mythology have stories where they do weird shit like eat their children without killing them or gestating their children in a hole in their leg, because they live in a different plane of existence from us, and everything which goes on there doesn't necessarily translate to things that make sense, here. The reality is probably more like some priest had a dream, and just told people about it like it was a prophecy.

It isn't discussed much because there isn't much to discuss. The loose collection of deities generally referred to as Slavic paganism emerged and disappeared withing just a few centuries. The man who unified Slavic paganism into a semblance of a religion was the same man who eventually Christianized the nation. Any video covering the topic would essentially be "Slavic mythology. Yeah, it was a thing." The belief system had no impact on the greater world outside of a small region, and is relatively irrelevant in the grander scope. It would be a difficult topic to dedicate an entire video to.

It's worth remembering that Greek Mythology goes out of it's way to absolve Hades of all sin for his involvement in Persephone's situation - instead pinning all the blame on Zeus, who ordered him to proceed in this fashion. Plus, the reason we do not know the why behind the seeds is that none of the surviving copies of the myth include that section. There is a section between Hades offering the seeds and the Narrator explaining that means Persephone is bound to the underworld, but with all the copies damaged so badly it remains illegible.
@erikkornfeld785
@erikkornfeld785 8 сағат бұрын
So, fun fact, the commonly known version of the Persephone's story maybe misstelling or might be a cultural misunderstanding due to millenia of retellings and cultural shifts. There is reason to believe that Hades didn't abduct her, but that they eloped. Women weren't free to marry who they wanted most of the time so eloping generally was treated as kidnapping. And researching historical texts you will find Persephone mentioned as the queen of the underworld by pre-greek cultures. But Hades is a much later add on to the greek pantheon. So it is possible that the greeks adopted Persephone and they created Hades because they didn't want a woman to rule the underworld. With this in mind it is much more likely that Persephone was not a poor girl that was kidnapped by a stalker. But Goth daughter of a controlling hippy mom who ran away with the shy emo kid.

Largely because those of us without much religiosity get tired of being beat over the head by religious people "just trying to spread the good word" A little taste of their own medicine and some gentle mockery makes it easier to handle. Personally, I don't care about a person's religion, as long as they keep it to themselves. But whenever I do go to church, usually because my mother-in-law asks us to go, a good chunk of the time is spent telling people not to be afraid to talk about their faith and to be proud to proclaim it. Which just turns even more people off.

The whole “she ate a seed” is explained in the mythology, although it is often glossed over. I forget which author it was, or in what book - I encountered it in during some of my research. Essentially she ate a seed rather than the fruit. Previously having been warned, likely by Demeter or Hekate, not to eat anything during her captivity

Except we have plenty of proof that the Noah's ark story was plagiarised several times form other cultures (because at least 3 other versions have been found and deciphered and dated to be far older and far more similar to each other than the Abrahamic version) and also distorted from the original. The older versions of the story do not tell of a global flood, just a major flood, do not tell about an impossibly large oblong ark but a totally build-able with tools and materials available at the time yer still very large round coracle , and do not tell about housing every species on the planet just the household animals of the protagonist. The older versions are plausible and feasible and good mythological stories, the Abrahamic version is complete hyperbolic nonsense with plot holes at every step.

Define "unnecessary wars". Also- the religious component in the Ukraine or Myanmar is pretty thin gruel where present at all. More like state-interest, ethnicity, ideology. China-Taiwan, too, if we get around to that. Even where the parties are of different religion, there are conflicts where nobody thinks it's about that- Armenia/Azerbaijan, whenever India/Pakistan flairs up, and so on. In sub-Saharan Africa most of them seem a combination of ethnicity and normalcy- some things happen like the turning of the earth.

12:35 the reason is one that's mentioned in many other mythologies: partaking into the food of the Underworld/Realm of the Dead means being trapped there. I believe this piece of myth was intended to explain why, very rarely, someone regarded as dead came back to life (usually from catalepsy or after being administered some form of first aid). BTW that story is often told with "four months" and "winter", but it originally was "a third of the year" (i.e. four months) and "summer" (because winters in Greece are not that harsh, while summer is and it usually dries the grass and other plants).

As he said, modern religion has just as much evidence to back it up as the Greek religions. If those are ridiculous, why isn't modern religion ridiculous?

The characters in Greek and Roman mythologies originated within the Genesis chapter 6 account. They were REAL, although the stories about them were obviously wildly embellished. They perished in flood of Noah's day.

World Wars weren't, religious. Vietnam, Russia in Afghanistan weren't religious. The Khmer Rouge, Mao, Stalin, Kim, Putin, Trump, and Xi weren't religious. You don't WANT to appear bigoted do you?
