Tiktoker: Jesus NEVER Claimed to be God!Deflate2026-09-29 | Tiktoker: Jesus NEVER Claimed to be God!This is IMPOSSIBLE for GodDeflate2025-08-20 | If God is all-powerful, it means that he can do anything. This includes sinning. But if God can sin, well, then God isn’t perfectly good. If, on the other hand, God cannot sin, then God doesn’t seem to be all-powerful because there is at least one thing, namely, sinning, that God cannot do. What do we make of this dilemma? Check out my video and let me know your thoughts in the comments!

Why? Because it contains not just 1, but 2 contradictions! Yay! Well, at least, supposed contradictions. How many blind men did Jesus heal – was it 1 or 2? And where did the healing happen – as Jesus was entering Jericho or as he was leaving? The three synoptic gospels Matthew, Mark, and Luke all recount the event, but they do so in a way that leaves one wondering about those differences. Or, in the case of skeptics, it leaves them excited about their discovery of Biblical inconsistencies. Check out this video to find out why such excitement is ill-founded, though.

In other words, faith is nothing but a psychological crutch to help people face the harsh realities of life. Or, to put it in the nuanced language of the Youtube comment section: Sky daddy – LOL! The argument was most prominently put forward by Sigmund Freud and Karl Marx proposed a similar idea as well when he said that "religion is the opium of the people." However, even if atheist commentators on YouTube, Freud & Co. are right, does that affect the truth of Christianity in any way? It doesn’t.

For example, Jesus didn't come to die, or we shouldn't go to church. Of course, the way he gets to those lies is by lying himself about the text of Scripture and by twisting it.Atheist jokes about the Bible. It backfires.Deflate2025-05-21 | Here's an atheist Tiktoker who tried to have a satirical go at belief in the Scriptures. It's just unfortunate that he is too lazy intellectually to back up his case. Instead, he simply assumes that he is right and while demanding from everyone else to disprove him.Skeptic PROVES Jesus Divinity with the BibleDeflate2024-11-22 | An atheist Tiktoker tried to make the case that several New Testament passages show that Jesus isn't divine. She ended up proving the exact opposite.People DONT Matter according to this AtheistDeflate2024-11-07 | Atheist Tiktoker "Jesus Unfollower," pointing at the vastness of the universe, claims that human beings cannot possibly be significant. Not only that, but he criticizes the Christian worldview for asserting that God would create galaxies, planets, and stars and yet care for us tiny little beings. To him, it is more plausible to think that God didn't create us, but that we created him in an attempt to solidify our illusion of being valuable. Check out my response.God of the gaps??Deflate2024-11-02 | ...Yet Another Bible Contradiction Fail!Deflate2024-10-31 | You know what atheist YouTuber and Tiktoker CaptainDadPool’s favorite Bible contradiction is? Well, it’s an issue that isn’t even a contradiction to begin with. He thinks that Matthew, Mark, Luke, and John offer us mutually exclusive accounts of the crucifixion narrative, particularly with regards to the question of when Jesus drank the wine/vinegar – was it before or after he was put on the cross? Had CaptainDadPool actually read the relevant texts properly, he would have seen that the gospel writers don’t contradict each other at all. On the contrary, their accounts fit hand in glove.Dawkins is a cultural Christian?Deflate2024-10-29 | ...A challenge for atheists?Deflate2024-10-26 | ...Was Jesus Really a Leftist?Deflate2024-10-23 | I recently came across this Tiktok video in which it was claimed that God is a drag queen, a communist, and a radical.

In other words, for these 85% evidence and facts are not the core issue behind their disbelief.

What’s his case? He argues that the Biblical writers didn’t know of loving same-sex relationships as they are practiced today. What’s more, the word “homosexual” is, according to Brandan, an inaccurate translation of the original Greek word “arsenokoitai” which we come across in relevant New Testament passages.

In one of his videos, Jegaysus offers us his argument based on a passage in Exodus, contending that this text is pro-choice rather than pro-life. Check out my response to see why his case fails.

Godless Engineer replied that it’s actually not all that hard to do that. However, in his response, he didn’t even come close to grounding morality. All he did was explain what he believes to be right and wrong. The truth is, however, that a description of one’s beliefs about morality is not at all the same thing as grounding morality within one’s worldview. I hope you enjoy my response.

There are also other such "parallels," as a Tiktoker has pointed out. This led her to suggest that Lucifer and Jesus may actually be identical. Here is my responsePluralism self-defeated #apologetics #jesusislord #christianityDeflate2024-07-09 | Is it a platitude for religious people to respect other religious traditions while also holding onto the exclusivist claims of their own religion?

However, the story abruptly ends with the women not telling anyone about the risen Christ because they’re afraid. Nor is there any mention of Jesus appearing to anyone. Mark is the earliest of the four gospels. Thus, the accounts we find in the later three gospels, where the women tell others about the risen Christ, and where the risen Jesus appears to them, don’t represent what actually happened. Instead, they are theologically motivated embellishments of the story, smuggled in by Matthew, Luke, and John in order to bolster the made-up narrative of a risen Christ. This video is my response to Ehrman's claim.
