aaronk1994 Vs. FranzDuckVideos: Christian Introduction

[GodForb1ds]

your opinion don't matter. Evidence is what matters.

If you don't have any, get off the stage!

[Widgetas]

You speak of "adequate evidence" quite a few times.

Can you please cite reliable, specific, substantiated sources (the bible does not count)?

[aaronk1994]

Look at the response.

[p0tamit0]

The cat must be possessed!!!

Seriously... whether or not Jesus resurrected is impossible to prove because there is no evidence.

The Bible is not reliable because it was made by falible men... The First Counsil of Niceae is just one historical event that demonstrates that the Bible was NOT inspired by God.

[arcanics1971]

Nice cat!

[DisturbedbyDeth356]

Adequate evidence god exists? XD Do you intend to share this information in future?

[iAstrophysics]

I'm sure by evidence, Aaron is referring to the various arguments for the existence of God.

[Scarface066]

Damn my ADHD! I was paying attention to the cat in the background throughout the rest of the video...

[aaronk1994]

lol, very funny.

[rkolegendkiller31]

Cool i can't wait to see the debate. Keep me inform ok.

[mintyformula]

you cannot call your self republican or democrat until your a registered voter

[redquas6920]

There are other religions other than christianity. Also there are other christ figures in other mythos like Horus, etc.

[xXdeadartistXx]

Wow some one wacth zeitgeist crappy movie jajaja

[Salmo77]

Conservative Republican Relgious Baptist...way to screw your life buddy! Enjoy it!

[JesusSavesAtCitibank]

Even worse...he said "Fundamentalist Baptist".

If he ever figures out how to use critical thinking and does serious research on the Jesus flesh-eating cult, he'll seriously regret offering that self-label some day. But we know that for now he's just repeating the label his parents use for themselves, and that's sad kids feel they must do that before learning about the world and people for themselves and then apply it using their own mind.

[aaronk1994]

Flesh-eating cult? Don't be stupid. Communion is not literal canablism. Get a better source than the Davinci Code.

[JesusSavesAtCitibank]

Ever hear of "transubstantiation"? In Catholicism, as well as some other Christian sects, they believe the actual body of Christ is in the eucharist through the conversion of transubstantiation. You laugh? Well, the NT and its stories you think are so perfect was assembled by the Catholic church.

This change is assured by Jesus in Matt 26:26-28; Mark 14:22-24, Luke 22:17-20, 1 Cor 11:23-25. So then, just who are practicing Christianity as Jesus taught? You or the Catholics?

[aaronk1994]

I'm not a catholic. You have no understanding of symbolism.

[JesusSavesAtCitibank]

What you mean is that Catholics and other Christians "have no...".

Catholicism is the world's largest religious body, so that puts you as a minority in that respective opinion of Jesus' words.

Do you actually think if this is a book from a universal creator that s/he/it would be so weak as to leave such a diverse field of opinions/confusion involving nearly every facet of the words throughout the bible that lead to such a hate and fervor among people that often leads to violence and death?

[aaronk1994]

Catholicism is totally unbiblical. Humans are the ones that kill each other over stuff like that, not God's fault.

[JesusSavesAtCitibank]

That's a hoot! The Catholic Church made the bible what it is, but you say they're unbiblical. That's exactly the hateful divisiveness to which I referred. They call your sect a parasite of Catholicism, historically and doctrinally speaking. Ask yourself, what if you were born of Catholic parents? Or even Muslims?

If God made people what they are, and also wrote the book to say what it does, it is absurd to delude yourself into the irrational and illogical excuse it's somehow not God's fault.

[JesusSavesAtCitibank]

"As long as God occupies a portion of our thoughts, mankind must be content to suffer the hatred and antagonism of man." - Joseph Lewis, 1920

[rba718]

What if Jesus wasn't resurrected?

What if he was abducted by aliens?

[valladore]

True, He may have been, but historically he came back and ascended.

[rba718]

That's what I mean, what if instead of ascending, he was being abducted into a space ship?

Lol, and there really is no historical documentation of the resurrection or him ascending, sorry bro.

[smokeshell21]

The definition you provided is only applicable to "strong atheism" (the belief that there is no god).

Franz is a "weak" or "agnostic" atheist. He holds no claim of knowledge concerning god, and merely doesn't believe that god exists.

If I'm not mistaken, Franz has made a video on this very subject called "You're not agnostic". I would recommend checking that out.

[valladore]

FranzDuck doesnt really speak with true logic....I dont think hes passed a high enough class of Biology yet.

God Bless Aaron

[metaitachi]

and how old do you think this kid is huh? Franz is much more logical imo

[MrFacet]

Around 0:40 you claim that the apostles of Yeshua were martyred for their believes, beyond question. Interestingly, ProfMTH is just making a video series on this topic (we're anxiously awaiting part 6) on 'Did the disciples die for a lie'. ( watch?v=Qh38ygMiY5I ). It seems that this claim is not based on retracable facts.

[MrFacet]

Around 1:20 you say the crucifixion of JC is beyond question historically. How do you come to this conclusion?

[aaronk1994]

Josephus and Tacitus.

[aaronk1994]

Sources that testify that the disciples were martyred for their beliefs: Luke, Clement of Rome, Polycarp, Ignatius, Dionysius of Corinth, Tertullian, and Origen. Plenty to establish it as a fact.

[TehBestZors]

Cute cat. :)

This will be fun to watch. :D

[xspacie]

why cant we just believe in what we belive in and not try to change people, your cat was like the good angel sitting on your shoulder sent by franz maybe

[kkkk101101]

yes

[thebigeasy87]

Anyone else concerned that someone so young already claims to be republican?....

[ukchristian28]

Franz Duck already calls himself a Democrat and he's even younger than Aaron.  Are you concerned about that as well?

[thebigeasy87]

Frankly yes, what happened to childhood? since when did people so young start identifying with political parties and what happened to childhood?

[ukchristian28]

They are 14! My grandfather left school at that age and got a job. Kids today have far more of a childhood today than they ever did in the past. Franz and Aaron are hardly little children. In four more years they could be getting married, voting going to university or joining the armed forces. They ought to be thinking about life's issues by now. As long as it's not all they think about. From what I know about these two they spend plenty of time being kids and having fun.

[DrakeKatt]

Wait, Franz and Aaron are getting married? Didn't see that coming. :')

[ukchristian28]

Ha ha ha!

[DrakeKatt]

Not TOO Much younger, I assume. I would have called it the other way.

[ukchristian28]

Aaron turned 14 last August and Franz last December I believe.
