This answer to this question unravels Protestantism altogether. There is a fundamental presupposition that enables any explicit or functional adherence to the doctrine of "sola scriptura" that is rarely addressed from this important angle.
There is only one relevant question for anyone who is presented with this information: do you want the truth?
One of my goals for this channel is to eviscerate every last excuse for someone to remain in their Protestant heresy; this video is another CRITICAL step toward accomplishing that. If God grants me the desire of my heart, the only people who will be able to watch through my content and refuse to convert will be the people who's hearts have been thoroughly hardened...those for who there is simply no reasoning with.
Please, please share if you feel it will help those in your circles to open their eyes to the truth of the Orthodox faith, unto life and salvation.
Grant this, O Lord!
Lord have mercy☦

The purely subjective and thus self-refuting nature of this epistemology should be self-evident for any honest Christian truth seeker.
There is no shortage of ways to *easily* falsify Protestantism. There is absolutely no justifiable reason to remain committed to this ahistorical dumpster fire of a theological experiment in the age the internet. The longer you resist, the more you personally contribute to the degradation of the Christian witness to the unbelieving world through this endless fracturing, chaos and confusion. The only path toward authentic Christian unity is the one behind us; we must walk backwards toward that unified faith of the first millennium Church.
It's ok to be wrong...We're waiting for you at the bottom of the rabbit hole.
Become Orthodox☦

You can't make it make sense.
*CORRECTION* At some point during this video, I mention that catechumens in the ancient church were escorted out of the *nave* of the Church prior to the liturgy of the faithful. In reality, that was a mistake. The truth is, they weren't even ALLOWED into the nave of the Church for the liturgy at all! They were actually only allowed in the narthex--essentially a vestibule--and were escorted from there; a reality which literally just makes the point more powerfully haha. (Thanks Fr. Alexei!)

"A logically sound argument does not a logically valid argument make."
What I SHOULD have said was:
"A logically valid argument does not a logically sound argument make."
Because the entire point is that you can have a logically valid argument that is not logically sound.
I WAS RECORDING THIS AT 3 AM I'M SORRY 😭Thank you to David Cooke for gently serving me this necessary slice of humble pie 😅🤣

At the 6:50 mark, I said that catechumens were historically removed from the nave but that’s not true. They were in the narthex and then kicked out from there. Thus, they weren't even allowed in the nave!
