  • How NOT to act in a video.

  • I like this video.

  • Is it true all Mac users only read the message?

  • Using atheistic logic . If the bible was more along the lines of Alice in Wonderland does that mean atheists would all start beleiving in God ?

  • Would there be such a thing as an atheist if the bible did not exist ? Atheists have built there whole beleif , non beleif on the bible .

  • hahahahaha

  • Which "Reactions"-word means 'thought-provoking'? (I chose "what?" but 'thought-provoking' is what I meant ... and it's "BUDDH (pronounced 'bood') Jay" lol)

  • 1:40: really aweful actor but very cute

  • nobody really nobody ok well fuck you you jesus fucks .....hope you die and never see your savior ooh sorry i forgot that's never going to happend anyways becouse your god is not real hahahha.....lol lo lol lol lol '....

  • I'm confused.

    Has this video been created by a Christian?

    - OR - is it an atheistic shot at pointing out how intellectually lazy Christians are?

  • @TheGrahamBrechin It's probably both. To Atheists, Christians are ignorant of what they believe and don't even read the book they base their beliefs on. On the other hand, Christians act like reading the Bible is not important and do several of the things shown in the video, instead of actually meditating and really reading it. However, after reading the description, I would say this is from a Christian producer.

  • how true is this video ~:) great work.. . now just need to know how the best way is

  • lol i love how the distracted reading part the way the guy focuses and re focuses

  • Always remember that it is very clear in Genesis, that humans have the knowledge of good and evil. Use that knowledge. If your Bible is telling you to do evil, you're reading it wrong.

  • Indeed. Who wants to read the bible when Everybody Loves Raymond is on?

  • To most Christians, the Bible is like a software license. Nobody actually reads it. They just scroll down to the bottom and click "I agree."

  • @2nDoppelganger Yeah, many are like that. Few know what is says, even less than that know much history to fit in and consequently far less people than even those less few even attempt to put passages and chapters into context. Many quote one or two lines, maybe three at the most but even then they do not attempt to explain context of even what they are saying. The bible is many books, some are literal, some allegorical, some a mixture of both, it is not just one text written at one time.

  • @shadowmyfeet zechariah 8: 13 " and it shall come to pass that just as you were a curse among the nations o house of judah and house of israel, so i will save you, and you shall be a blessing. do not fear, let your hands be strong."......... like i mentioned earlier, christians get a little annoying with their verses, but behold i was given this verse. what does it mean to you?

  • @TheBlanco951 Very little considering it is one verse, and verses were not numbered until after 1000AD, meaning a single verse gives little in context of the chapter. Essentially the chapter opens with something akin to "I have not lost my zeal for Israel" so I would take it in the context of Israel/Judah representing the world of sinners to be forgiven in due time. But this could be wrong, I did not examine the whole chapter just now. I think you understand my meaning though, a verse isnt enuff

  • @TheBlanco951 Like I mentioned earlier, it means nothing to me since it is one verse taken out of an entire chapter/book.

  • @shadowmyfeet Precisely , I`m glad to see someone here knows the problem with strict Biblical literalism . Too many Christians as well as too many of my fellow Catholics , I regret to say , just blindly buy into what The Church claims it says rather than reading it cover-to-cover for themselves . I guarantee you , no Biblical literalist has read the book cover-to-cover .

  • @1993MovieMan I must agree. And even those who have read the book cover-to-cover, well, they often put the wrong perspective. The old testament and new testament are different testaments for a reason. And the enormous content of the bible cannot be understood in one reading at all times, in my view. So it would take many readings of the whole bible to understand a small portion of it. Its no small task, either. The bible is a history and no history is the same from beginning to end.

  • @shadowmyfeet Exactly . And , years of mistranslations , misinterpretations , editing by The Romans and Anglicans to fit into their own biases , subtle differences in wording between versions and Church Mythology which tends to owe more to Literature ( particularly Paradise Lost and The Divine Comedy better known as Dante`s Inferno , both of which ironically written by men considered heretics by The Church of their time )than The Actual Bible confuse the matter more .

  • @2nDoppelganger well if they dont pray to god for guidance before they read and decide to read from the beginning to the end and not attend church then they are most likely not walking in the word of god and are  just being religous.

  • @2nDoppelganger lol sometimes thats wat i do lol!

  • i hang my bible on the wall and throw darts and trust the holyghost to guide them to the right scriptures, so far i've broken three lamps and a family photo.

  • Some people read the bible like terms of agreement, they scroll to the end and click accept.

  • @gulbirk Other people copy pasta to sound smart.

  • LOL I've done almost all of these LOL :)

  • LOL I actually ahd a co-worker who used to grab my bible and do that. LOL

  • i read my bible on my iphone while i walk to the store. i did the non-xtian thing and started at page 1

  • this is an outrage! they need to be burn at the stakes... theres thousand of people died horribly for laughing to death after watching this video... that is a serious crime against humanity...

  • this movie is boring

  • Comment removed

  • mockers will come right before the end of time. oh, lol. its how NOT to read the bible. Ugh! that caught me by surpise.

  • mockers will come right before the end of time.

  • My teacher in Religion class used this today! ;) Love it!!

  • Heresy and a complete irreverence for the Word of God. Blasphemy! Makes a complete joke out of the Bible! So you are saying people should never read the Bible with intelligence to understand what it says but to empty your mind and repeat a stupid mantra over and over like Lectio Devina teaches which is nothing more than eastern mysticism applied to Christianity. It makes me sick!

  • You should begin in Genesis, and read each book all of the way through. It is the word of God! If that doesn't excite you, I don't know what will...

  • @ChristiansForUnity

    Seriously? I mean... seriously?

  • @Phage0070 What?

  • @ChristiansForUnity

    The Bible really isn't that exciting. It really isn't terribly well written by modern standards.

  • @Phage0070 Modern standards don't matter. Only God's standards.

  • How NOT to read your Bible: Skipping the upsetting parts.

    Don't skip this part: God kills women and children. Genesis 7:17-23, Gen 19:23-25. Or when God orders his people to kill women and children. Joshua 8:1-29, Joshua 10:1-43, Exodus 12:24-30

    God commands we kill in his name - Leviticus 24:10-23; Slavery - Lev 25:44-46; Statutory rape - Numbers 31:7-18; Death by stoning for adultery - Lev 20:10; Death by stoning for disrespect - Lev 20:9; God uses terror as a weapon - Lamentations 2:1-22.

  • @RiversCrossed also not reading in context xD

  • the problem is that many in the world and in the churches do not want to glorify God, nor do they love God. If they did, they would not have much of a problem getting into the Bible.

    .

    Christ Returns May 21, 2011 to Judge the World - Acts 17:31

    31 Because he (God) hath appointed a day, in the which he will judge the world in righteousness by [that] man (Jesus) whom he hath ordained; [whereof] he hath given assurance unto all [men,] in that he (God) hath raised him (Jesus) from the dead.

  • @WeCanKnowDottCom

    o my god another may 21st person shut up! the world wont end!

  • u r going straight to HELL!!!!!

    BELIVE ME U ARE

  • @jordanstevenson10 What?!

    God's male?!

  • actually i have read the kjv and the niv but my comment says i may need a NEW bible you illiterate fuck

  • A question, God is a male or female?!

  • @Jessicatheemogirl Male and Female are human, physical attributes. God is outside of all creation. He is male and female but at the same time neither. Everything is part of him. But he is none of these things. If that makes any sense... Think of God as a spirit. Not a physical bieng. That will help you answer alot of questions about God and his ways.

  • @martyleakey21 Thankyouu'

  • 7890313Christianity is a plague on the mind and soul, as is Islam and Judaism.

  • @macmarine False religion is a plague on the mind and soul. True Christianity is a blessing on the world.

  • @MrDrProfessorBolton Ah yes, the old "true Xtian" fallacy, a classic! And what a blessing we have here: murderous inquisitions, burning millions alive for being "witches" and heretics, warlord-popes, child-molesting priests and nuns, fake self-appointed fornicating preachers raking in millions of dollars, paying no taxes and giving out nothing but empty promises in return. All this a true blessing onto the world, indeed!

  • @macmarine Did you read my comment? TRUE CHRISTIANITY is a blessing. Why would I support all the examples you just gave? Yes, they are present, but no, those are not examples of Godly Christians.

  • I hate you... because this is so true.

    LOL :D

  • @drinkmoresoda-HONESTLY, PEOPLE WHO ARE SPIRITUALLY BLIND AND DEAF WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO SEE, HEAR, KNOW NOR UNDERSTAND THE TREASURES HIDDEN THEREIN THE PRECIOUS HOLY BIBLE-WHICH IS THE WORD OF GOD!! (JAMES 4;6-"GOD OPPOSES THE PROUD, BUT FAVORS THE HUMBLE!" PEOPLE WHO ARE ARROGANT AND PROUD, WILL NEVER BE ABLE TO SEE NOR KNOW THE SECRETS (TREASURES, MAP) THAT CAN LEAD ONE TO ETERNAL KINGDOM AND LIFE! THEY ARE HIDDEN FROM THE SO CALLED "WISE" OF THIS WORLD! ONE HAS TO HUMBLY PRAY TO GOD FOR IT!

  • @drinkmoresoda-REALLY I FEEL SO SORRY FOR PEOPLE LIKE YOU! REMEMBER THAT ONE DAY YOU HAVE TO LEAVE THE EARTH...IT'S NOT A MATTER OF "IF" BUT RATHER IT'S "WHEN!" AT THAT TIME THE VERY WORDS YOU'RE SPEAKING NOW IS GOING TO CONDEMN YOU; IF YOU DO NOT REPENT AND ACCEPT JESUS AS LORD OF YOUR LIFE!" TRUST ME WHEN I SAY, YOU WILL BE A BELIEVER WHETHER YOU WANT TO OR NOT ONE DAY! I ONLY PRAY THAT IT WONT BE WHEN IT'S TOO LATE FOR YOU! THINK ABOUT THAT!

  • I FEEL SORRY FOR PEOPLE WHO ARE IGNORANT ABOUT THE TRUE TREASURES FOUND IN THE BIBLE....IT'S THE LIVING WORD OF GOD THAT HAS TREMENDOUS POWER TO CHANGE A PERSON AND SITUATIONS! POOR UN-BELIEVERS....!

  • @uncheckers when you say treasures do you mean like pirate loot? i may need a new bible lol. no i j/k its a peice of shit hate filled book of incest genocide rape murder infanticide and racism, no treasure

  • @drinkmoresoda I love how you openly admit that you've never read the Bible and then argue against it. Go join the government: they would love you.

  • lol very funny lol that reminds me of some 1

  • Some of the comments were discouraging and terrible storys as a christian myself. If you find yourself in need of help religously, have a question, or want to try make sense of something so confusing as the bible, not to be a christian, maybe just to make sense of it. Just send me a message, i will not hesitate nomatter who you are, the video was good and very true. It is good to show such a great message through a comedic video. Great job. Try to ignore the religious wars. God bless you all

  • what does this have to do with Lectio Divina? I am confused.

  • Another way to NOT read your bible, is to abstain from reading it - probably the healthiest thing to do, to sustain faith.

    When I read it - it made me realize how ridiculous it is.

    Have a nice day.

  • yea well i think god is a load of crap only becasue WHO CREATED GOD< HE DIDNT JUST SHOW UP! EVOLUTION BABAY ALL EVOLUTION! plus if god was real and helps us out why didnt he help save my dad before he committed suicide! hmmm he went to church every sunday! HMMMM why not and dont come out with this BS where god will take him or it was his choice or it was his time to go!

  • First of all, i know people like you. I used to be like you. Your dad is very well alive or died very quietly, you just refuse to beleive because your parents didnt or they "let you decide" BS, then you have "ModernWarfare2000" as your username, only a happy person, if this event happened and you were talking about it on youtube, you would have deep emotional effect which could result in your own death. If this did happen, i pity you, if not, i pity you and know you deserve to die and go to hell

  • Second of all, "who created god?" Sounds alot like "what made the big bang?" and "who made the first person in evolution?". EVOLUTION IS A DEAD END THEORY. Nobody can see it past their stupidity, a man is made from monkey, what made the monkey? the thing that is more primitive then that. then that. then that. at one point there are no more possible creatures and still it is left unsolved. Just shut the hell up if you dont beleive stop just trying to piss people off

  • Third, if this really did happen to you, please reply and tell me. I might be able to show some light to what happened to you. If you simply asked why that happened to you, people would respect you, and you might receive encouragement and some form of enlightenment. If you still didnt beleive, you would still have respect. I still respect you, unless this story was false. If it is true, please, i am sorry, but please, reply to me and tell me the whole story. God is still with you. God bless

  • Evolution does not negate religion. What created the beginning of the universe? The big bang? What made it happen? Where did the matter come from? I am just curious. How does evolution mean that God doesn't exist? If God didn't just show up, how did the universe just show up?

  • @joseph2ne youve said nothing !why does something have to make it happen!

  • @WORLDARYANREVIVAL Incorrect. I have not said nothing. Why does something have to make evolution happen? Because everything that happens is caused by something else. The purpose of the theory of evolution is to prove that there is a reason that things change.

  • @joseph2ne exactly i agree with you 100%..what starts must have something starting it..so therefore the univere has to be infinite..there was no beggining and there will be no end. God does exist:) but god is not what we think he is. How can god be limited to a physical human form. He must be a intelligent force that resides in everything. Afterall we are also energy beings controlling this physical body and mind. We think we are lmited..but god is within us. Within everything that exists:)

  • @ShaolinRambo I agree, and also don't think God is limited by gender :) Thanks for the comment!

  • @ModernWarfare2000 or god works in mysterious ways.. Evolution makes more sense!

  • @ModernWarfare2000 I can answer each and every one of those concerns. Let me know when you want answers that make sense.

  • you are just a flat ass hole. You look up something about the bible, just to tell everyone you have no morals or consious because you beleive that the world was just you, and thousands of others like you. You really think that you, one of billions of others on the planet, has no effect or reason in anything. That if you take a life, it is not a sin, but just taking a life early. If you can comprehend this, it is what people think without religion. Without religion, life is just waiting for death

  • With an intellectual approach to reading the bible, you may find yourself in a stew of mismatches and nonsense. Good video, though.

  • lets see you mock the koran and muslims-Catholics and the Bible are always being put down and mocked-and when you people who participated in this video are down and out you will be the first one asking for Gods help-just love it when prisoners suddenly find God in jail-yes?

  • Ha ha ha

  • This video was good up until it listed "intellectual reading" as a way NOT to read the Bible... Other than that it was a good video!

  • Indeed.

    2 Timothy 2:15 - Study to shew thyself approved unto God, a workman that needeth not to be ashamed, rightly dividing the word of truth.

  • this video is funny anc cute

    i like it :)

  • Um, you know what???

    I don't care how you read the bible. If you pick it up and consider it, I'm happy with that.

    Do not be discouraged by the control freaks of this world. The Lord will show you the way and needs no help from those who feel driven to place a bunch of rules on others.

  • wow

  • Even if you do not believe in god the Bible has an amazing psychological understanding of human nature that is timeless. If anything you can read it for that insight and inspiration that it does lay the groundwork for an ideal to aspire to that does improve our ability to live in this world with others.

  • In which case, you've just dismissed the teacher of the teachings while trying to maintain the teachings of the teacher. Compromise FTW.

  • I am addressing all the people who would mock the bible because of their refusal to believe in god. I think in such a case discussing the bible as a profound historical writing that truly demonstrates its authors as having a keen understanding of human psychology is the appropriate next step towards remediation between two opposing groups of thought.

  • = its authors as having a keen understanding of human psychology =

    Every atheist will appreciate the consumate manipulation of the weak. The bible guides us all in how to gain mind control over those who are afraid to think and run their own lives.

  • I think you are way off topic,

  • A reply is off topic???

    Wake up bozo.

  • # 1 was funny. I laughed

  • Why do u avoid reading the bible? i read my bible and try to understand it to the best of my ability so that i can better understand JC. im sorry that you feel the way you do bout JC.

  • once you read enough of it you become an atheist.

  • Agreed nothing makes a better atheist than one who has read the bible

  • Lol, "Everybody Loves Raymond".

  • Destated reading what other tipe of reading is there?

  • The Bible says that humans are made of dirt. And that snakes and donkeys talk. And that insects have 4 legs. And that bats are birds. And that the earth is flat. And that the sun revolves around the earth. And that Pi = 3 rather than 3.1416... And that animals appeared AFTER man but BEFORE woman. Read it for a laugh. Read it to see that there is no way this absurd book of myth represents reality. Read it to be free.
  • It always amuses me that atheists and fundamentalists read the Bible in the same wrong-headed way - like it was newpaper language. You have certainly never studied the Bible in a serious way. If you are incapable of understanding the difference between historical narrative, metaphor, poetry, pastoral reflection, apocalyptic literature, etc., then not only will you never understand the Bible, but you will never be capable of understanding any literature written for adults.

  • If you read the bible literally, Imaginefree69 is right.

  • lectio devina = LAME

  • Comment removed

  • "Hey, cut it out!!! I'm bein' spiritual up here!!!" LOL!!

  • haha, humorous

  • lol

  • Great! Really funny stuff!
