then your 'holy ghost' is also a pedo..because Mary (pbuh) was 12 when she gave birth to Jesus (pbuh)...just in the 1200s the age of marriage in the west was 9...and just 500yrs ago it was common for a girl to have a farm and family by 13 let alone 1400yrs ago...dont compare life then with todays sick western society that your people have created for you.

brother zaatari finished christianity off

i hate christians beacause of thier non sensical faith the christians are harming themselves by following pauls so called christianity

[ansaz14]

@salaarkhandodher Beats following a man who couldn't keep faithful to one woman

[ansaz14]

@pillgrimz Please look up the word "incarnation" No one had sex with Mary-> ergo virgin gave birth. 2nd how to you demonstrate that she was 12 at the time, even skeptics point her as older than that by atleast four years.

@hisglorydivine Wow, you said it was normal in jewish tradition for a 12 year old girl to give birth, so what about the arab tradition? When it comes the the biblical doctrines its normal but when it comes to islam then there is a big probelem. Second if you have a problem with the semen hadith then what about your own bible? which sings praised songs about 2 people who commits adultery and prasies the bed they had sex on!?

[OccultTruth]

such a stubborn

[2332Jesus]

Oh my god I am so srry I put the wrong thing I ment your NOT suppose to I am so srry

[2332Jesus]

No my brothers Catholics your not suppose to say there wrong in any religious beliefs that just making us like them take the advice and pass it on please don't fall in a trap.

[doner6]

Christians always say that Jesus was sinless but is this the case? I ask you Christians, is slander a sin? Is it a sin to slander other people who are different from you? If I call the Jews dogs am I sinning? The Christians will say yes. If this is so then I want a response for Matthew 15:22-28. In these verses Jesus calls the Gentiles dogs when he says It is not right to take the childrens bread and toss it to their dogs. This sounds like slander o me!

[tryingtobegood1]

exactly. im glad someone else noticed this.

and notice he starts a lot of debates with what his opponent will probably speak on lol.

[nirvana34534]

Unlike some of the other debates on youtube, this one is particularly hateful.

When he asked him to come up and apologize for "all the people his god killed" I really doubted the professionalism of the whole thing. It all boiled down to a hate fest.

People, Judge a religion by it's followers actions. NOT by what some out of context passages from a 2 thousand year old book says.

I've seen David Wood debates before, and for some reason, he seems to feel no reason to address the glaring facts that are brought against his arguments. He simply sidesteps them, ignores them as if they were never mentioned, and continue to make a point with far less evidence for it than against it. With David Wood, its an emotional tirade masked as intellectual discourse.
