Ep. 26 | 🍿Comment Chaos: YouTube Reactions on Christianity, Control, and Critical Thinking
EPISODE TRANSCRIPT
26. CC
[00:00:00] Well, ladies and gentlemen, where the crap do we begin with this episode. Holy shit balls. There was a lot of feedback on the episode that went live. What is it a week ago? But at the time you're listening to this a week and a half ago. On my, very controversial takes on, you know, Jesus actually, let me find the actual title of the episode.
I can't remember my own title, my controversial take on Christianity. How the rapture Christ and God. That went live a week and a half ago. And the feedback and the comments went off. In the best way possible. Mainly YouTube and Tik TOK. I don't actually get a lot of comments these days on Instagram. I I'm not actually sure why that is because it's the same content that goes to all of those three platforms.
But yeah, it seems to go off the most on YouTube. And also Tik TOK. On YouTube. Just fun fact. Most of [00:01:00] my audience is actually male on Instagram. Most of my audience is female. So maybe it's something to do with that. Women get your act together and start coming. That's a joke. I love you. I love you. Take talk.
I actually think it's kind of like an even keel when it's like both male and female, but yeah, you guys went off we that episode. So this episode today, let me stop babbling. Two things this episode today, first of all, is to go through a lot of the comments on YouTube and Tik TOK. It's probably going to have to be a two-part episode, by the way.
Otherwise, it's going to get extremely long there. I really want to read a lot of your comments because they were so good. Whether you disagreed with me, you agreed with me. Neither they were fricking good comments. So I really want to give the time and space to actually say them out loud and give my response back to some of them. Awesome. There's one person that I really, really, really loved their comments, even though they were being a bit of a douche bag.
[00:02:00] Um, we'll get into that in a second, but. Yeah, that's funny. We'll get into that in a second, but I just want to quickly say something and that is about my hair.
Just stick with me for a second. If you're watching this on YouTube, you understand more, but my hair is a bit of a shemozzle. Okay. We're going to put up with that.
I was actually considering getting a shag haircut. Now, if you don't know what that is. It's kind of like, what's her name? Is it Stevie Nicks? No, I don't think she actually had the shag. She had really long hair with a French. It's not quite the same. I want to keep my length ladies. You'll appreciate this more than you blokes you blokes will be like shut up and get on with the episode. Just stick with me guys.
I was just playing around with my hair and I'm actually thinking, oh God, that looks terrible. I was actually thinking of getting like a big fringe cup, but make it like super duper curly. Keep my length, but have the sides up. Like, yeah. Anyway, I was just literally playing around with my hair. This looks utterly disgusting right now, but I was just playing around with my hair and I've ruined my hair for the day.
So that's why my hair is a [00:03:00] shemozzle, but we're sticking with it. Put up with it. I've ruined it for the day. Here we go. Let's dive into your comments.
Where do I start? My God.
All right, let's start with YouTube. So I'm actually going to go to the full episode video on YouTube.
So we've got someone by the name of, on the brink 1 0 9, 7. Hello, we have, we have commented to each other, but she said you have blown my mind. I have decided to not believe in the man-made Bible written by biased opinionated men. I'm steering towards a belief in a higher intelligence, a creator I'm still researching and came across you on T T meaning Tik TOK. Thank you.
Please tell me more Australia, new south Wales. I said, oh, it's so nice to connect. I love that. You're exploring it all for yourself. Keep going, keep being open and having discernment always. I think if we continually return to the core of ourselves and see what sits right for us and what doesn't. Then that's awesome. Self-trust is a powerful thing to harness when questioning the world [00:04:00] as well as institutions, authorities, et cetera. And she said, thank you so much.
Yes. There is so much happening in the world. I stumbled across you on Tik TOK. And now here. I'm so happy to know. I'm not the only one questioning the world systems. I'm looking forward to listening to your videos while I work. And I just want to make it CLI you don't have to think that the Bible is all BS. You know, I'm not even saying that.
I don't think that at all. I I've said numerous times that I think that there is so much wisdom in it and there's so much that we can learn from it. And I think it was humans. You know, trying to understand. Who is the creator? What's the purpose of life what's out there. Like. We all don't know. None of us actually know we all have theories.
Like if you said to me, are you a hundred percent? Like certain, not every single one of your beliefs? Well, no. Of course not. If I was a hundred percent certain on absolutely everything, there's no room for growth. There's no room for, you know, [00:05:00] having new information be putting in front of you and you actually take it seriously. It stops all of that.
So, no, I'm not a hundred percent certain on everything except for a few things. My self-trust, I'm a hundred percent certain on my level of self-trust that is undeniable to me. And I think that's safety. I think that when you can trust yourself to that level, You can trust that when you are confronted with new information, that you will wait through it yourself, six to eight yourself and come to what actually makes sense for you.
I think that is healthy. So, no, I don't think that people have to believe the same things I believe because I may not believe the same things. I believe in five years time. Like, let's be honest. I may not. I questioned people. That stand by all of their beliefs, all of their life from birth. To death and never changed on anything. Those type of individuals to me are extremely close-minded and not open [00:06:00] to being wrong.
Like I'm someone that went one way for 25 plus years born again, Christian. Like, I mean, I was the epitome of the good church girl. I was not, I didn't even go and have my wild party days. I didn't. I didn't even have sex before marriage. I did, like I was the epitome of what you would consider to be the really good Christian girl in the church that I was in.
I was the role model of the good Christian girl. And I went from that way to then literally having the fullest death of my ego and being like, holy shit, I could be so wrong. So when, when I put out episodes and when I discuss these topics, it's not to say, I think I'm right and you're wrong. And if you don't see things the same way as me, there's something wrong with you. Not at all.
It's just, let's go underneath. Let's look deeper. Maybe there's more to what we see. So thank you so much to on the brink one or nine, seven. I'm so grateful to have you here. On YouTube. I appreciate you.
And I've read some of the other comments already on the last, um, [00:07:00] comment, chaos episodes.
So I won't read those. We'll go to the next one.
Which was actually from my last comment chaos episode. So that comment chaos was obviously going through some of the comments that had already come up on that episode that had been released. And so then people have replied. So Gordon Becker, you should make a video of you barking at the moon, Ella. And that's in response to someone calling me a Moonbeam.
I was like, ha ha brilliant.
Would really go along with the crazy woman archetype I've been given. And that's the thing I am okay. Like I genuinely am. Okay with being seen as the crazy woman or being seen as the moon Barker or, you know, just someone that's a bit whack or I've been called a loser. I've been like, I'm okay with that.
It's okay. I've finally come to a place in my life where I'm so much more comfortable with being misunderstood and not having to. Try to over-explain myself so that you understand who I think I am. Oh, no, you can have your perception of me and that's [00:08:00] okay. Doesn't make it right. Doesn't make it wrong.
It's just your perception based off your life experience, based off your belief systems, your self worth, your everything, your shadows, your, all of that stuff. Right. I finally am very comfortable in being misunderstood. It took a long time. That was. A big chunk of my life work. I believe. Someone else has written spot on well said.
And I said, thank you for being here and contributing.
Now. I just want to go still staying on YouTube. I want to go to the shorts because. As in they're like, um, an Instagram real, or like a Tik TOK video.
So they're the shorter videos. These are the ones that have had. A lot of comments on them. So one of them was about how I believe and notice. I always say, I believe, I don't say this is what it is. It's my perception. Right. I believe that the second coming of Christ is not the rapture where Jesus comes down from, you know, having to come and take all his people back to heaven with him.
And then there's like, Hell on earth. It's [00:09:00] that to me is a lot to me. That's a lie. It's a manipulation of things that are in the Bible as a means to control and scare the masses in to doing whatever the crap that they want us to do, which it's working. It's clearly working. So to me, The second coming of Christ is, you know, the cross consciousness within us.
It's, it's living in unity with all things and so much more than that. Anyway, this clip has had some comments. So.
I hope I'm pronouncing that right. Set. I believe the purpose of life is to learn, to give and receive divine love to do this each individual context, the audible livestream. Nothing to do with manmade, religion, love you and your work. And I just want to say, thank you. See, I haven't even had chance to respond to all these comments yet.
Cause there's a lot on all different. Uh, videos, but I just want to say thank you so much publicly. Thank you. I really appreciate you. I love you as well as a fellow human being. Thank you so much. And then someone else, Jay, at three, UJA said
That [00:10:00] is a beautiful way of viewing that. And I agree. It seems a lot more Crosslight to me then. What is being pushed. And then someone else has said, the Lord said many, a cold, but only few are chosen. It's not based on works. It's based on faith and to repentance. We all sin and fall short of the glory of God. Thank you for your comment.
I have to say something though. So the Lord said many are called, but only a few were chosen. I don't agree. I don't agree that that is actually the truth genuinely. I don't believe. That a loving. Perfect pure God would choose some over another. See that to me is very man-like that's a very manmade dogma.
I don't believe that he would choose. And I'm saying he, for lack of a better word, right? Called God he to meet the frequency, but I don't believe just like, it is ridiculous for a parent to choose their [00:11:00] favorite child or favorite children over, over others. Like, that's just. You just don't do that.
Right. It same with God. I don't, I don't believe I don't care if it's in the Bible. I don't believe that that is actually something that a loving perfect God would actually do. So I disagree the same way that I disagree and this will be. Very controversial to say it. I don't believe the jews are chosen people.
I just think that's ridiculous. I don't think that there are any chosen people on earth to be seen as better than others to be above others or to have certain privileges above another, as far as like. From the core of who we are just because God says, so I don't believe that to me, that's nonsense. And then to the point of it's based, it's not based on works.
It's based on faith and to repentance, I used to believe the same thing. But I actually think that that's poems teachings, when you go deep into, was it actually polled at set it or was it Jesus, because Jesus actually said faith without [00:12:00] works is nothing. Right? Cause works, people see works as like, oh, you're trying to work your way into the kingdom of heaven and all that.
Well, No. If you actually say that it's just through faith and not works and you get away with being a shitty human being. That's how I see it because you can, you don't have to work on yourself. You don't have to work on being a better human. You don't have to work on helping other people. And in seeing everyone as one.
And for instance, something that transformed the way that I comment and, you know, reply to people on all of my social media platforms was in actually seeing. Every single person, that comments as me. For instance, this individual, I actually see them as me. It's like I'm messaging back to myself. It takes away all of the. what's the word?
Uh, for instance, you know how you hear the word trolls I've used the word before trolls, by the way, no one commenting on my posts or trolls. I don't think that at all, that. Nice normal human beings, having a normal [00:13:00] conversation with me, giving their point of view, which I appreciate. And I welcome and I love, so I'm not saying that, but you know how you can have people that just deliberately troll, like they're on social media, they're deliberately just saying things to get a reaction, right. You can feel in your body where you're starting to, like, it can make you. It makes you react within yourself, different to how you normally would or different to how, if you read something that was like a loving comment, for instance, That has dissolved for me when I seriously started to view that individual as myself, I'm having a conversation with myself. I'm not nasty to myself.
I'm I actually speak to myself. And even in my mind, majority of the time, I'm not perfect. With so much love and care and compassion. Compared to how I used to and therefore, why would I speak any different to another human being? Because when you see them as yourself is very hard to be extremely rude.
It's very hard to be. You know, nasty human being, [00:14:00] because if they are you, why would you want to hurt you? And this is the thing that I find.
When you have the view that it's just based on faith, that you make heaven your home, if you believe in heaven. I have to disagree and I actually don't believe that that was fully Jesus' message. Again, I believe that's Paul's message. That could be a whole separate episode, but. That is why I actually see a lot of very religious, very dogmatic, religious people.
For instance, born again, Christians. Catholics. Can actually be some of the nastiest people on social media, they can be. And of course, that's just human nature. I get that. It's not just that. I'm not suggesting that if you're religious, you're a nasty human being. I'm not saying that at all. But. People that do come for you.
When you question religion, they can come very hard and can be very nasty and very derogatory. Some have been to me. And I think it's because they see us as separate. They are going to heaven and in their mind, I'm going to help. I am a separate being to [00:15:00] them. I'm a separate entity to them. We are not the same.
Therefore they get to treat me differently. They get to judge me differently to how they would want themselves to be treated or to be judged. So, yeah, I don't believe that it's not based on works. It's just fruit through faith. I disagree. And as far as the, we all sin and fall short of the glory of God. See, I have a different view on scene.
And I've mentioned this before, but send to me is just, it requires a course correction
for instance. And of course in miracles it says sin is a mistake that needs to be corrected. It's not an evil to be punished for what a different way of looking at that so therefore to me, sin is karma it's cause and effect. Right. And. To think that we are all born evil, like to me is nuts. That is nuts. I used to think that I used to think that a perfect pure God would create babies and children that are wicked. Like. That is nuts [00:16:00] to me. It is not to me. And that these individuals, if they don't repent, when they've come to a certain age are going to end up burning it. Oh, my God, the whole thing's nuts to me.
Anyway, let's move on to the next comments.
So on another one of the clips someone else has said, you need to stop listening to Sam. Shoot, I'm going to butcher the name. S H a M U O N. Self-taught genius in theology, but definitely not for the faint of heart, because he will shred you apart and breathless a F. I said keen. Thank you for the recommendation.
I will check him out for sure. I really appreciate recommendations right? On videos, books, anything that you think that I, or the audience should read, like whether it's for or against whatever topic we're discussing at the time, like share them. I appreciate you sharing them. Thank you. Someone knows.
Uh, Dennis Prince has said you should read evidence that requires a verdict by Josh McDowell. Read it first, then verify his slash its citations. It's a long and [00:17:00] tedious read, but if you're interested in truth, as well as debunking the Bible, it's a great start that will lead you directly to its source material. Be honest, not for others, but yourself.
And I said, thank you so much for recommending that to me, I'm open to exploring more and we'll check it out for sure. And again, I really do appreciate people's recommendations to keep them coming
they don't one of the clips on YouTube, where I was talking about how I see religion is the antichrist.
It's the spirit of the antichrist. I actually think Jesus was teaching about, it's not. What I think most Christians today believe it to be. I think it's the very thing that they're a part of someone wrote you fall. And I wrote sending you love. I never replied to me. Someone else has said. So you just made up your own religion from Catholicism. Remember people don't have context.
And I always remind myself of this. This is like literally like a 32nd max 62nd clip. People haven't necessarily gone and listened to a full hour long episode. So I always give context [00:18:00] when I'm reading someone's comments. So they don't like, I'm not religious, but they, this is what they've written.
I'll read it again. So you just made up your own religion from Catholicism. What makes the rules for your religion? Rules for abortion divorce, death penalty, premarital relations, gay marriage stem, cell research, IVF, et cetera. Who decides on these things, you. And I said, I'm not religious and don't follow any religions.
Not sure where you're getting this from. I believe in God and believed Jesus was a legend, but not religious. So they've said, my point is that you're an idolater leading people away from the true faith of this world. This is the issue I see with when you see us as separate. Let's look up what the word, idolator means.
I a person that admirers intensely and often blindly. One that is not usually a subject of worship
and another one here is the word. [00:19:00] Idle can also refer to the datey or God that is being worshiped.
Interesting.
So I don't. Idolize anyone. Or anything? Like literally, if you ever asked me who is someone that you wish you could be? I would say nobody, like I've said this my entire existence. Nobody, I don't want to be anybody, but myself. My message is always come back to yourself. Do not even trust me. Right. This is my message.
Don't even trust me, blindly, go back in to yourself to the core of your heart, your soul. Your truth. And sift everything through that. Right. So come back to yourself. I believe in not worshiping an outside data, I believe in not putting all of our faith and trust into systems, institutions and authorities. So I find it just a little [00:20:00] bit ironic that the Chris Ricardo. Ricardi. Hi.
Hi, the Chris Ricardi. That you as, I mean, I can only get guests that you are a Christian that believes in God based off what you've said, that you.
Someone that where ships and outside data. I'm guessing someone that idolizes and outside datey, uh, calling me an idolater.
Rather ironic. But I sent you all the love in the world and thank you for commenting and for being here, I, I actually appreciate you. I have nothing against you at all.
And then I've got another one where I was talking about how the Bible has been edited and bastardized over years. And it's, you know, they've turned it into a narrative of control over the population and how there was. You know, ancient tablets and th the, um, ancient sea scrolls and the Emerald tablets and different, like, so many things that are out there that were written. Before the Bible.
And [00:21:00] when you actually compare them, you tend to find that the Bible was a replica of lots of different things. And obviously, you know, in the council of Nicea, they decided what was going to be added to the, made into the Bible, to what it is today and what wasn't, what was going to be excluded. And things like the book of Enoch were excluded. So many things that if they were actually included so much more context on the world and existence and how we came to being and. So much more context, but you can't control a population with that knowledge, hence why it was excluded, except for, I believe in the Ethiopia Ethiopian Bible still has it included in it.
Anyway, someone has commented. To say the Bible corrupted. I think they mean to say the Bible is corrupted is to say God of the universe is not really powerful enough to be in control. And I do want to break this down for a second. I haven't had chance to respond yet, but so they're saying in response to me to say the Bible is corrupted is to say the God of the universe is not really powerful enough to [00:22:00] be in control. Or.
Oh, Is it. That the Bible is not actually what we think it is that it's not actually the infallible word of God, as I've said before that it was manmade and man put it together, trying to work out. What is this existence? Who is this God right. Which legends. Thank you. Thank you for writing back in the day.
I think ancient texts are incredible. We want to understand. Time's gone by. We want to understand the way that they viewed things, right. So I'm not against the Bible, but. To say the Bible is corrupted is to say that the God of the universe is not really a powerful enough to be in control. Or. Or we have freewill. To create a Bible and to exclude books from the Bible and to use it as a means of control.
So I am not suggesting that. God, isn't powerful enough to be in control. I am suggesting that [00:23:00] human beings are corrupted, we, we all have, you know, freewill to decide what we want to do without energy. Do we want to contribute good energy into the board or do we want to contribute?
Not so good energy into the world, right?
So could it be that actually it's just been used as a means of control. And it's not actually God that read the Bible.
And then someone else has written before there was any sort of scientific thought process going on. There was several different versions of religious thought, all revolving around some sort of all powerful datey to try to explain what humans couldn't conceive or comprehend religion evolved over time to exercise control over the minions. I agree.
I actually do agree. I actually say, as I said before, that it was a way of trying to explain what we couldn't conceive or comprehend. That's what I think it is. And it has evolved over time to exercise control. Over the population
and then on another one where I was explaining that people aren't leaving [00:24:00] dogmatic religions, because they just want to sin.
As people say, like, that's ridiculous. It's not that at all. It's a very painful experience to be able to confront every part of your identity. And so someone has written reality comes crashing down. It's got to be a humbling experience. It is, it is such a humbling experience. I call it a death of the ego because that is what it is. I know it doesn't mean that now we don't have an ego. I still have an ego.
It's just, it is in like one hit. It feels like
all of the foundations of your programming, a crumbled overnight. That is what it was like for me, the moment I looked into two things, right? Two things that confronted me was the concept of hell not being real. And the concept of the rapture not being real.
Once those two. Like exploded in my mind of like, oh my God, I don't actually believe it. It crumbled everything, everything. My, the foundations of my entire identity were crumbled. And I know if it was the same for you, [00:25:00] you understand it is a very humbling experience. Reality does come crashing down, but it's so healthy.
It's so healthy. Someone has written. The most painful thing was my family's rejection and lack of understanding why for me personally, it was more like a tearing of the veil that covered my soul. And it was a blessing in the end to see, to truly see who I am. So well said I could not agree more.
And then on another video where I was talking about how I see religion is a form of control.
And especially like when. The Vatican with their agenda of manipulation and what they're pushing for in their teachings. I don't believe it's Jesus' teachings. I believe it's Paul's teachings. We don't have to get into all that now. But someone has written, so let me get this straight. You know, what Jesus' actual message was, and because, you know, you know, that his message was distorted by his followers and the Vatican. Well, thanks for clearing that all up for us. I said you're so welcome.
We'd like a wink face being a little smart [00:26:00] ass, but in a cute way. I said, but in all honesty, I know what his message was not, and it's not what they're pushing for context. This is a short clip of a longer podcast episode where I go deeper into it all. I don't proclaim to have all the answers, but I do have a lot of questions and I'm digging deeper into it.
Or I don't think anything is above reproach when it comes to looking at what's under the surface and seeing underneath what is commonly pushed and swallowed by institutions and authorities and religion is right up there with that. Got any to use more comments so I can actually draw a breath. I believe in God.
I believe Jesus was incredible, but I just don't buy the message they're trying to place onto Jesus. It seems to be it's more Paul's message, but also been manipulated by many over the years as a means of control and power. They haven't responded back to that one.
Here we go. We've got Kevin. Oh my God. I love Kevin. Kevin. I love you. If you ever see this, I love you. This is.
Okay. [00:27:00] Kevin wrote yawn. I'm one of my clips. That's it. Just yawn dot, dot dot. I said, come on Kevin. Surely you can be less dismissive of a complete stranger on the internet sending you love. And he wrote gullible much question mark. I said still with the nastiness. Why, what do you stand to gain?
I swear, he responded to me and now it's gone.
I wrote, I love you Kevin, with a love heart
I've just noticed Kevin has deleted some of his comments, but he doesn't realize that I had actually already screenshotted them. By the way. I love you, Kevin, if you see this, I have nothing against you, but I had screenshotted them because I wanted to use them for this episode. So when I wrote still with the nastiness, why, what do you stand to gain?
He wrote, please go ahead and join the cult. You're wasting time and costing yourself. Happiness. And that's when I break, I love you, Kevin. So go ahead and join the Colt. Cause obviously I'm saying that, you know, religion watch, I don't think I did say religion was like, oh, I said, it's a [00:28:00] blood coat.
I did. I said that dogmatic, religion to me is a blood cold. That's what it is. They were obsessed with animal sacrifices and human sacrifice and the thought of Jesus having to die on a cross for our sins. Like to me, that's, it's a blood coat. They're obsessed with death and I, I just don't agree with it. So here, we're saying, please, let's go ahead and join the coat.
You're wasting time and costing yourself happiness. And I said, I love you, Kevin. Now he has deleted his other comment, but again, I have a screenshot of it. He, Kevin, I'm onto you. Um, one of the videos, by the way, I never mentioned Jews. I never mentioned.
The thing that happened, and I'm going to say the word, cause it'll probably get this video taken down.
But the thing that happened with the Jews many years ago, where the guy called Hitler, I never mentioned that. I don't nothing about that. I was talking about how I don't agree with dogmatic, religion, and all that kind of stuff. This was a different video. And he wrote. Again, separate video, thinly veiled, anti Semitism. [00:29:00]
I said hello again, Kevin helped me understand here. And he didn't reply. He just deleted his comment. Thinly veiled, Kevin, my love is that thinly veiled because it's. Existed.
This is what I mean by trolling. I love you, Kevin, but you are trolling. See, I don't know if he's actually like a born again, Christian or a Catholic. That's like angry with the way that I view things. Or if he's just a troll, having fun. I'm going to guess the first one, because why would you delete your comments if you're a troll, having fun? Yeah, I definitely know to anti-Semite and, uh, I don't, I. He didn't help me understand why, but God bless you, Kevin. I love you.
My dear. You're still welcome to comment.
And what I've decided to do. I'm going to actually read a couple more from YouTube and I think we'll do the Tik TOK responses as a whole separate episode. It went off on Tik TOK. There's so many, this will get way too long. So [00:30:00] still, um, one of the clips about how. I believe Jesus was a revolutionary human.
I don't believe that he died on the cross for, I mean, I believe he died on a cross. Right. But not, not for our sins as in God killed him. I think that. Human beings killed him because he was such a disruptive to the system. Bloody legend. Someone said, this is just a lot of claims and no evidence. Also Paul called it the gospel he bought not his gospel. I said, you have watched a short clip of a one hour podcast episode.
How can you expect all your answers to be solved in 40 seconds? Cause he's saying it's a lot of claims and no evidence, PS, I don't claim to have answers for the world. I encourage critical thinking and people to explore this all for themselves. It's a very opposite of what religious people do. They're the ones trying to convince the world that they're right.
And everyone else is wrong. So they've said, I'm sorry. I didn't know there was a larger video, but you're also trying to say everyone is wrong and you're right as well. I wouldn't be a good Christian if I didn't claim [00:31:00] Christianity was the only true religion. Also we Christians encourage critical thought as well.
I believe he's critical to ask questions in order for us to not fall into doubt.
Thank you so much for your comment. And I appreciate your humility in your response because they're saying, I'm sorry. I didn't know. There was a larger video and like, I wasn't being a smart ass to them. I was that she's saying this it's impossible. We're in a 32nd clip for me to give. All of the evidence that you're asking for, of whatever. Um, so thank you so much too.
I'm not also trying to say everyone is wrong and I'm right. I'm definitely not. I don't think that, like, I can't make it any clearer. I'm going to stop even trying to explain that because it's okay for someone to have a perception of me. That that is what I'm saying. I'm not saying that. And as for the point of you wouldn't be a good Christian.
If he didn't claim Christianity was the only true religion I disagree. I think it's okay. And I think we should normalize saying this is [00:32:00] the religion that I follow, but there could also be truth in many other religions or there is. Truths in all of them, right. There is so many. Similarities in so many religions out there.
I don't think that for you to be a good Christian, as you've said, That you have to say that this is the only one true religion.
I just don't see it that way. Also we Christians encourage critical thought. I would say depends on the individual. I understand that you were trying to speak for all Christians, but I have to say that I disagree because the very church that I was a part of for like 25 years actually said, do not question like they legit said to us, do not question the Bible, do not question the leaders. Do not question it as soon as you even raise a question about the validity of any of it. You are allowing, this is what they said, a foothold for the devil to come into your mind and to take control of your [00:33:00] life.
So I understand that maybe you and in your church that you allow critical thought and you encourage it. That's not across the board and this is my issue with it. It's not across the board. Most will say, do not question. Do not question. I know many questions Christians today who still say, do not to question.
I will not question it. I will not. That is literally what they say to me. And. I the fact that you've said, I believe he's critical to ask questions in order for us to not fall into doubt. Having critical thinking and being confronted with new information, you have to allow yourself to sometimes doubt the beliefs that you have in order to change them. This is a thing.
If you are, if you are trying to not have doubts and you're not actually applying critical thinking. You're not. If you think that by questioning something, but not allowing yourself to doubt what you already believe is critical thought. It's not, that's not what [00:34:00] critical thinking is.
Critical thinking is actually the objective analysis, right?
It's objective. And it's an evaluation of what you're confronted with
in order to be able to form a judgment. So it's objective
and then someone has written, Jesus loves you and gave his life that you might be saved and gave Paul the gospel to the Gentile. So the whole world could be saved. Read your Bible. And you understand that was from Tim lane. I said I don't condone human sacrifice and never will. This is why I want no part in the blood coat that you're in.
You may be comfortable with what you just wrote, but it's alarming to me. And it is, it's so alarming to me, the Vatican, and then I've put in brackets and others really have a lot to answer for how much Jesus' teachings were twisted and used as a means of power and control. None of it is what Jesus actually taught and the message he was giving the world.
It's now the very opposite of his teachings. It's the [00:35:00] antichrist. Again, this is what I believe. Do I know this for fact? No, but something is not right. I just think every single system I've said this before, but every single system. Person in authority. institution. That is in place as a means of control power or for financial gain. They teach us and they thrive on us. In two ways, one having zero self-trust or very low self-trust and two having shitty spiritual awareness.
Right? Those two things. It is a common thread, right? At end. It's it? That is how they have control. For instance, you think of the medical mafia, we shall call it. Think of big pharma think of religion. Okay. They all survive. Like if it is used in a corrupted way. Because obviously you can think, yeah.
The medical [00:36:00] system is incredible and we need it to help in emergency situations. Absolutely. Absolutely. The other side of that is. Let's use pharmaceuticals as a way to control the population as a way to make them reliant on these pharmacy. Who's cause they take one and then they need another different 10.
Or you're told you need this for life, or you need this when you don't really need it. Let's get them hooked on these pharmaceuticals. And then we've got them right. We've got them. You're reliant on them. You're reliant on them for your health. This is why, you know, you're only meant to trust people that are in doctors. Lab coats or like the hospital staff or. Someone who has a particular degree, which yeah. Extremely intelligent in the field that they have researched, but guess what? Often what they've studied for instance, doctors, a lot of that, a lot of what they study is actually funded by pharmaceutical companies. Okay.
It's all intertwined. So we're taught don't trust yourself, trust the [00:37:00] ones in the lab. Coats. This is an example. Don't trust yourself. Trust the one that has the certificate on the wall. Don't trust yourself, trust these pharmaceutical companies because they've researched it and not we've got this. We've got this. study that proves the efficacy of what we're trying to give you, even though the study is fricking corrupt.
So we are taught don't trust yourself and the lack of spiritual fricking intelligence that we have as human beings. They prey on that. And that is how they force their control, their manipulation, their coercion, and their money-making schemes on the population. To me, it's the same with hardcore religion.
We dogmatic religions. They thrive and survive on us having zero self-trust. And I was having port spiritual awareness. Right. Anyway, I'm babbling on. We're going to make this a two-part I'm going to do next week will be all of the tick tock responses. Cause there's a lot and there's some juicy ones and I really want to read them.
There was some legends on Tik TOK at Towey. [00:38:00] Just from the clips that I put up from, you know, their episode that I did. On, you know, Jesus and God and heaven and rapture and all of that stuff. Uh, I think I've got like 200 followers on Tik TOK, just from those, just from those clips. So, yeah, it's been fun.
Lots of comments on Tik TOK. Anyway, I love you got to as always thank you for being here. Legends, keep commenting. Cause it gives me stuff to. Reply to, and I love it.
