At first i was like, who would not want to believe in our Lord? then i saw the way she said her vid backwards and then i got it! very clever! good job, it's a good video!
Dear jamifecher....The statements made do not represent the belief of just one theology. They are statements we hear from several different resources and are used as examples. I would never interpret this as one belief system but of several that would challenge the faith of Christians.
If Christianity was based on a false assumption, the faith would not have had the impact that it has had on the world. It doesn't matter whether you believe or not.
This is clever but weak. It preaches to the converted in a way that demeans the thoughts of many thinking "unconverted" and reinforces a subtle smugness among the converted. Very few "unconverted" I know would support the blanket statements like, might makes right, power is superior to compassion etc... I know no neo-gnostics who would support such statements. They would support the shallow statement that faith is a perspective. Did Jesus die & rise to give me a new perspective?
@jamifecher I am not sure it is a fair interpretation to say that this video is putting words into the mouths of neo-gnostics. Rather I think the video is just making theological claims-i.e. Because of the empty tomb, the oppressive Roman system did not have the final word. Rome fell; Christianity hasn't. Furthermore, the video is not an engagement in a theistic/agnostic debate. This is not a cosmological video. It is a video that simply says, according to Xty, despair can be defeated by hope.
@jamifecher Additionally, it is a theo-political statement being made: that is, Christianity challenges the notions of normative institutions like social Darwinism and blood-thirsty capitalism (i.e. Compassion is stronger than power, might does not make right, etc.).
I found myself saying "Oh, but it is!" in a silent response to each statement in this video. What a beautiful message if anyone who sees it and is not a believer will just pay attention to the reality the words bring to us. The empty tomb brings everything to everyone who will heed the Word.
