Religious rants

secretagentboi
Dang you're not even sticking to the main christian values by saying that first sentence since Christians don't believe in lost causes ya know forgiveness and redemption is like one of the main christian beliefs the only thing they view as a lost cause is the devil which even though I'm not christian I still adhere to that and no i didn't watch the whole video i watched like the first 10 minutes before realizing it's fear mongering and baseless speculation books going electronic doesn't mean that all of a sudden the original copies are going to disappear and that they'll change what's written in those books when it's so easy to verify things by like the pastor said having an original copy or by doing literally any amount of research

Sprinkling solid advice mixed with fear mongering and speculation doesn't mean it automatically makes it better

And i did try to watch it because unlike you i actually respect other people's beliefs and at least try to understand where they're coming from but I've heard the type of rhetoric that dude in the video was spouting literally all my life after a while it's difficult not to see through that crap

Its not like in history conquering nations would burn all literature etc. Even with communist or authorititarian regimes they would also get rid/change books to say what they felt like. Have you seen netflix and them making cleopatra depicted as black even tho she was greek meaning she would have never been black. How is that fear mongering its literally the truth. Im not going to continue to try and change ur mind. I will say what needs to be said and those who will not listen thats for them to decide. I respect everyone's beliefs, you be muslim, aethists, hindu, catholic. I respect your desire to do whatever it is you want. You dont hear me telling you to burn in hell for an opinion outside my own. However this whole time you have antagonized all i have said i posted this video and here you came to refute it. I didnt name any names or call anyone out. It wasnt even directed at you. Im simply saying what i believe to be fact. But if anyone feels offended by it i still wont change my mind.

And have you seen the backlash the Cleopatra show got? It's got like a 2% audience score and 17% critic score Netflix lost big. Oh but let's just leave it to the Christians it's not like they burned thousands of books and lost us a huge portion of history in order to create their own back during the 11th century crusades on Jerusalem or anything

And your point? I thought that stuff didnt happen and it was fear mongering? Even if the Christians did it that doesnt change the fact it can happen.
secretagentboi
My point is digitalizing things and burning them for the sake of religion aren't the same things when they don't have the power to knock down your door and confiscate your books

They literally can though it is proven through history. This HAS happened look at the jews they would go door to door simply looking for them who is to say that cant happen for religion like Christianity. Especially with religion as a whole on decline. Its not fear mongering we literally had the biggest satanist convention in boston not too long ago.

Because one of the core things holding up America is freedom of religion? Because no matter how hard they try they can't just take it away? Because it takes years to even make a slight modification to laws? Because the medieval era and modern era are completely different and you can't compare the two?
secretagentboi
Well you can compare the two but there's very few similarities
