    This stuff is just messed up. It's one thing to preach love and compassion, but this... This is just messed up.



    Some comments from GodTube:

    I am disappointed... I thought that this website was safe for children! This Video is like a horror movie. I will not let my children on to this website until it is removed. I will not have my children terrorized in action. The holy spirit is their motivator, not fear!

    I am so glad you posted this video. I have a friend who has been talking to me about Christianity, and I was going to start going to church with him this weekend. But you have shown me that this is a religion of fear and hatred, of retribution and violence. A religion that feels it's appropriate to scare teenagers into the fold, instead of treating them with warmth and compassion. Any religion that would encourage these kinds of beliefs is not something I want to be a part of. Thank you for saving me.

    That it is our responsibility to share the love of Jesus. Pure and simple." This video is neither pure or simple. You don't share love with fear. No major Christian denomination preaches that people are condemned to hell because of ignorance. That view went out a long time ago, but apparently some people have yet to catch up. "Keep searching guys the truth is within." I am afraid it isn't. Anyone with any knowledge of psychology and neurology would tell you that we are not only unreliable witnesses to external events, but we are constantly misled by our own minds. Philosophers have long realized that we are flawed beings, and our minds are no guarantees of truth. The idea that "truth is within" is simple scientific and philosophical ignorance, and is positively dangerous, as it detaches us from reality. I am sure the makers of this disgusting video believed that they where telling some kind of "truth".

    Who made that? Spam him to death, with Jesus emails.

    Gah, what is it, tell the person with the slow dialup connection that can't watch vids. <_<

    It's saying that basically this guy is going to hell because his friend did not tell him about Jesus. I'm guessing in an effort to get people to spread the word of Jesus to others, but it is sending a negative message to others saying that Christianity is a religion of fear.

    Yeah. Basically it's saying, "Blab on and on about Jesus every waking moment of every day, because your friends and family are all on the VERGE OF DEATH!!! And despite the fact that our culture is saturated with 'Jesus this' and 'Jesus that,' it's up to YOU to tell them about your own, personal, physical and sexual relationship with Jesus."

    Sounds like a logical argument, no?

    But is it sound?

    Hah, couldn't resist.

    Something related, here in Orlando a few guys held a "protest" (I guess) holding signs that said "Honk if you hate Scientology" standing in front of a Scientology church. I found it pretty funny and how well it carried out.
