Why We're Not Atheists I really like videos put out by ReligionIsACrutch, an atheist Youtuber group. They did one called (More) I really like videos put out by ReligionIsACrutch, an atheist Youtuber group. They did one called "The Price of Faith" which raised a lot of good points.
Here's their link: http://youtube.com/watch?v=BliMK_pbrGE
In a way, this video was inspired by theirs. It's not a 'response' or an attempt to debate. Yet flipside of the argument coin, maybe...
If we don't AUDIT what we believe, we are being incredibly silly. If atheist, why? If Christian, why? Many choose atheism to rebel against society. So too, many become Christian or convert to Islam, to rebel. Or, one picks a faith to be popular with his group. We will tell ourselves we are objective, of course. But are we?
One big justification we use, is CONSENSUS. Evolution is accepted in the name of so much 'scientific' consensus on it. Ok, by that same premise, one should the more accept theism (which evolution never precludes, as it's based on cause-and-effect).
Ok, um.. theistic consensus way outnumbers atheistic, historically. For 1000s of years, billions have worshipped one idea of 'god' or another. We differ vastly and even violently over what DEFINITION of "god" is true; but we never differ over WHETHER there is "god". Because, WE KNOW "god" exists. That's why we keep believing.
Now, since "god" by definition must be unseen (especially if Infinite in Nature), then evidence of Him would not be see-able to outsiders, since Unseen communicates to unseen: to the soul. Man has a soul. You cannot read thought biologically. So something UNseen controls biology, even as unseen truths (laws) control the universe; unseen math uniquely demonstrates the unseen. Math is immaterial, but real. Truth is immaterial, but real. And the material, is impacted by it. So that's the closest one comes to realizing via what you can see, that there is something you can't see which is likewise real. It warrants investigation.
Now, pretend there is a god -- which is logical, as the consensus is overwhelming both in numbers of witnesses and in durability (time length) of that witness -- pretend god exists: wouldn't it stand to reason that there is an afterlife? To which one goes, to be with this god? The question warrants investigation.
So Why are We not Atheists? For the simple reason that we all immaterially SEE God. Via our immaterial souls. We clearly don't see Him equally, we differ a lot on particulars; but so do any mass of witnesses to an event. I bet you couldn't get two people to exactly agree on the events of 9/11. But everyone would admit that 2 planes flew into the Twin Towers. They would likely disagree on most everything else, as any purview of the Youtube videos re 9/11, will show. So: the number of witnesses to "god" is billions of times greater, thousands of years LONGER, than witnesses to 9/11. So it will be more varied, especially if "god" reveals himself progressively (as Bible contends).
In a courtroom witnesses establish evidence. We theists are witnesses. Now, what upsets atheists is that they can't validate how this 'seeing' occurs. It is supernatural. But like truth and math, it has visible effects (i.e., we believe).
So here's an example: moi. Christians are SUPPOSED to live supernatural lives 24/7, says John 14:26. That is, Spirit teaches you Bible and recalls to your mind past Bible taught.
This function happens to me 24/7. I don't recall memorizing a verse since childhood (Lord's Prayer, Ps23, etc). So in this video, I wanted to find the "tumbleweed" verse, but couldn't. For I couldn't recall the Hebrew, I only vaguely remembered it was in Jeremiah. So I couldn't search it in BibleWorks. Since no English Bible uses "tumbleweed", I couldn't search it, either. I was about to give up, when "Jeremiah 17:6" sprang to mind. So I checked -- and yes, that's the verse. Now for the punchline: I heard that verse taught only once by my pastor, maybe 15-20 years ago. He used "tumbleweed" as the translation (Published Bibles say "bush", typical fuzz job, blecch).
See? That kind of supernaturality happens to me all day; I have no memory and even less patience. Other Christians have their own stories. We will restrict our stories to the prosaic, as we don't want to talk about the rest, the weird stuff we all experience.
So you the atheist, have to hotline it to "God", and ASK for the proof you need. For Unseen God, proves Himself to you individually. Via His Word, and to your soul. That's the best thing to do: just ask, "God, are you 'up there'?" If you want an answer, you'll get one. Else, He will leave you alone until you're ready. Don't wait too long. (Less)
1/4 Isaiah 52:15 +Threading, Isaiah 53 series READ ME PLEASE...
WARNING: THE LOOM AND WEAVING PICTURES ARE COPYRIGHTED, USED WITH PERMISSION. (More) READ ME PLEASE...
WARNING: THE LOOM AND WEAVING PICTURES ARE COPYRIGHTED, USED WITH PERMISSION. So you cannot sell the pictures or use them to make money. The soundtrack and my own stuff is not copyrighted, use it as you wish. Just don't try to use the loom and weaving pictures to make money. Credits for the pictures follow at the end of the video.
THESIS: "Threading" occupies the bulk of this video. Last three minutes begin the exegesis of Isaiah 52:15. There's a 2-page Word doc you'll need to download, to see how "threading" works: http://www.geocities.com/brainout1/Isa521315Weaving.doc . If you get gibberish on the first page, you need to download the Hebrew fonts from BibleWorks.com which furnishes them for free and with your anonymity intact.
This doc is not referenced in my webpages yet, was made just for these Isa52:15 videos.
UPSHOT on Threading: God weaves His Word like the Temple veil, thickly and perfectly. That's the primary way you know God is the Author behind the human author, and you test the Word of any Bible writer like you'd test fabric.
For example, Genesis is the first book: so Deuteronomy must carry through ALL the threads started in Genesis, add revelation to them, all in one seamless 'fabric' of thinking. The later books must weave in all prior books, and you can tell what's included or not included, as well as fake from true, by this weaving. So when John writes Revelation, since it's the last book all the prior Bible must be threaded through it and FINISHED, just like you'd finish off a piece of cloth. I mean, it's rather bluntly done, ending with the ending of time, but hey: some people just can't recognize the obvious, and claim they can add to Scripture. Oh well.
Stuff which is wrong (i.e., scribal errors or someone's attempt to add text) sticks out like loose or bad thread. Very obvious, like the so-called "second Cainan", misspelling of kauchesomai (ch changed to th) in 1Cor13:3, the last half of Mark 16, etc.
It's way more than "the law of non-contradiction" one must follow in adding to Bible; the 'fabric' must exhibit Divine Genius of language, wit, wording, economy, etc. And all that, without a human loom, straight from God's head into your head and out onto the writing media. Needless to say, you can't tell any of this in a translation.
It's NOT dictation. The writer must be spiritually built, usually over many years, to have the proper 'loom' (frame of reference) to understand God's Thinking revealed to him. Doctrine of "verbal plenary inspiration" means that without waiving any personality in the writer, God's Own Word exactly as He intended it to be written.. is.
I like to call it spiritual dendrites, but then I'd have to explain something of biology (done anyway in my "DDNA" webseries pages), so here I settle for the analogy of threading and weaving from a loom. Bible uses that analogy a lot, so it should be familiar to you.
There will be three more videos on Isaiah 52:15, maybe four, following this one. It will take some time to craft the pictures needed to go with the soundtrack (I always do the soundtrack first, on a digital recorder, blind). (Less)
