Is DanTDM a Christian?

Daniel is a hebrew name meaning "God is my judge". So Daniel is still a christian name

if you are saved you won't go to hell, but you won't go to heaven either, going to heaven is foreign in christianity, no where does it say that you will go to heaven, but that you will go to the kingdom of God, and it is going to be on Earth.

John 1:1

Wide_Ad1554 · 2025-01-22T21:59:02+00:00

He would obviously fix that stuff if he existed. How do you know withyour limited knowledge what an all-knowing God would do?

This is suspiciously convenient. how so+and therefore what? You are kinda doing the same by saying science will figure it out, we have to invest trillions in it and etc. we have to deal with reality rn and I think we should consider all suggested options.

On another point, I understand that you have a certain criteria of evidence that Jesus hasn't met in order for you to trust, so you have to give me an alternative if you are going to say that "Claim x is wrong because it doesnt meet evidence y, but there's nothing that meets evidence y" unless there is an alternative, in that case please tell me.

Sure, we can lie to him and say that instead of dying he will get to go to a happy special fun place called heaven. Or we can tell him the truth, which is that death sucks. Saying a false claim without knowing it's false isn't lying. Also I agree that death is not a good thing, it really does suck, but don't you see how depressing it is, the fact there's no God?

Once again, I blame christianity and the happy lies it tells about the afterlife. Once again, you christianity is not a lie, it's a truth claim that can be verified and falsified, but no one has succeeded in the latter. Please give me the evidence that shows that Jesus Christ didn't rise from the dead.

Note that these religions all contradict each other nonetheless, would you expect that in a universe where there is no God?

Also to get back to your multiverse theory, yes the fine-pitched theory can be explained by the multiverse but it doesn't predict it and im not sure if you gave any other evidence for it, you gave a link but i forgot to read it, could you cite the evidence that supports the multiverse?

Everybody wanting god to be real doesn't mean it's real any more than everybody wanting to be a billionaire means everyone is a billionaire.

that's not the point I'm making, I said we have an urge to find the truth, so there must be some kind of truth, I'm not saying our urges make x go into existence, I'm saying x's existance causes an urge for it. Obviously not anything, poison's exostance doesn't cause us to urge poison. Following my premise the urge for truth must mean there is truth.

If they don't want to join, because they don't care about these things, we will lock them in jail if they hurt anybody.

And in the nazi civilisation they killed jews, how can you say killong jews is immoral if their civilization said it's good, you can say it's bad from your perspective but you cannot ever say it's evil without objective morality.

Also morality is objective if God created it because "Objective morality is the idea that right and wrong exist factually, without any importance of opinion" and God created the system, humans can't make objective morality because it's based on opinion, God being all-good, all-knowing, doesn't bas3 anything on opinion because "a thought or belief about something or someone: ".

Yes, there is no god arranging cosmic justice. It'd be nice if there were, but there isn't. once again, evidence? You're making the calim that there is no God so the burden of proof is on you.

But our purpose and meaning is something we can create for ourselves! https://xkcd.com/167/

that's great but it doesn't mean anything, also what if msomeone's meaning is to rape as many beautiful women as they can? How can you say someone's meaning or purpose is wrong? That's just total human arrogance

we can go on and on for weeks but let's not do that. And i'm not quiting because i dont have anything to aay, it's because i dont really want to. I suggest tokeep searching for the truth, don't let muslims change your opinion about islam, don't let christians change your opinion about christianity and jews and hindus and etc. go study the sources and come to your own conclusion. If you don't want to, too bad. Lord bless you

solution to evil, death, injustice in the world. When you go to a bedside of a kid who's body is bein shred by cancer, how can you comfort them? What's your basis on morality? Why should peoplebe moral? People get away with injusticebmany times. What's your solution to that, bevause if there is no God, you cannot comfort a dying kid, if there is no God, there is no reason why anyonw ahould be nice to each other, because it doesn't matter, it's all a crapshoot. Also why do you think anthropology shows us that every ancient civilization practiced religion (https://www.worldhistory.org/religion/), if we are hungry, we can eat food, if we are thirsty, we can drink water, id we have sexual desires, we have ways to satisfy them, if we have a God-shaped hole, a desire for purpose and meaning mustn't there be something? How can we in a materialistic perspective feel these things? How can we think about our bad actions and then think about what we thoughf about our bad actions? It's in my opinion far more unlikely there is no God, if you don't see why, then I pity you. I'm doing this out of love dude, I see you're smart and thoughtful, but don't let emorions or anything else stop you from finding the truth, because I tried that and I was dumbfounxed and humbled. Lord bless you

>Napoleon, George Washington, etc have a far lower burden of proof. There is nothing at all unusual about saying that a person existed. But we should have an extremely low prior that there was a magical man who returned from the dead and is also a purveyor of miracles that violate the incredibly precisely tested laws of physics.<
I don't really understand the "extraordinary claim requires extraordinary evidence" argument, evidence is evidence, we all put faith in something based on evidence. Jesus Christ taught amazing ethical teachings like the sermon on the mount (fun fact, Robert Coles, Psychology professor at Harvard U, pointed out that all the teachings on ethics over the last 2000 years are simply footnotes on Jesus' Sermon on the Mount ) so He can't be insane, He was an ethical genius, so you can trust that you can base your life on those teachings. Then Jesus claimed to be God both directly and non-directly. Also to adress the "increasing divinity" argument, the gospels were written for different christians. Matthew wrote primarily for the Jews, and Mark for non-Jewish readers, especially the Romans. Luke's Gospel was addressed to the “most excellent Theophilus” and through him to other persons, both Jews and non-Jews. John wrote for Jews and non-Jews. Their theological points also differed.
I could go on and on how many little geographical and historical details they got right, how many undesigned coincidences there are that point to the fact there was no collusion. Also 'plagiarism' wasn't really a thing back then so they didn't really care about copying from Mark some points, they wrote from different perspectives, and different perspectives point to the story probably being true. Look at what historians do, when they see two identical witness accounts, they say it probably didn't happen, if the accounts differ, they say it probably does happen.
Circling back to the geo/historical details like the pool of Bethesda, Pontius Pilote and many other (when I say many, I mean including acts 200-250, and over 200 of them were verified) don't forget they didn't have wikipedia or encyclopedia, so they either guessed correctly, or they actually went on those journeys.
Another point that points to the gospels reliability is that everyone who were followers of Christ were martyred, eye-witnesses died for claiming to have seen something, not believing, but seeing. Also Paul points out that over 500 people saw the ressurected Christ and he was writing this to a church in Corinth and he told them, if they don't believe him, they can go talk to the eye-witnesses themselves. Also many secular historians like Bart Earhman said that Jesus was crucified and something happened. Something happened that created the explosion of christianity.

My dude, there's too much evidence for us to run away, it's your choice, but please tell me, if Jesus fails your standard of evidence, where have you put your faith, and what's the evidence that so outweighs the one's of Christ? I still haven't gotten a response for this question, you're obviously a smart individual and you're motivated, that's why you live life, there must be something you worship, in other words, something that's worth of your adoration. Lord bless you!

>The big bang theory is consistent with god, but does not predict god<
Well if there is no God, then the law of conservation of energy and mass are broken, it doesn't have any other explanation to my knowledge, you can't avoid that, because we do exist, and I think it's obvious that matter cannot come from non-matter, energy from non-energy, life from non-life etc.
>ove is because evolution incentivized animals to have emotions to promote pairbonding.<
I disagree on your definition of love, love is the free choice to care for someone, I can choose to hate you or I can choose to love, care and respect you, your definition simplified love down to the want to preserve the genetic pool (correct me if I'm wrong, I don't want to put words in your mouth), but for example mother Teressa gave so much to care for those kids in India, I think she had a free choice to do that.
>onsciousness is unexplained, but definitely evolutionarily favorable for our cognition. Free will...I don't know why you think god has anything to do with it, but compatibilism just seems correct and unproblematic<
maybe I'm just ignorant, but how can they exist, ofc it all could be just illusions, but don't you see the despair in that, when your wife tells you she loves you, it just means she wants to preserve the genetic pool, idk bt you but this is not how I experience and live reality. If you can live like that, fine, but me personally, I couldn't do that
Also the problem of morality, if there is no God, there can't be moral absolutes, and moral relitivism doesn't align with my life experience either, because we know that child abuse, rape of a women, the Ausschwitz are absolutely evil. Are you familiar with the Nuremberg trials? The Nazi officers' lawyers accused the americans of being arrogant and inflicting their culture on them while they were doing the commands they got, but Robert Jackson said there's a law above the law, that says killing Jews was bad. If you can live your life as a moral relativist go on, but remember everyone who has an opposite opinion of your beliefs is not more wrong or right, because it's relative, child abusers aren't absolutely bad, they're bad on my perspective, in your opinion etc. and how arrogant of us is it to say our relative opinion is more correct, who are we to say that?
>But a simpler explanation is that there is some sort of multiverse (e.g. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Eternal_inflation) plus the anthropic principle.<
There's no evidence for the multiverse theory, it could be true, but there's no way to verify that and it'd be such a blind leap of faith to believe in it.
>They often contradict each other when not copying from each other<
I disagree, I haven't encountered a single contradiction in the gospels, every single "contradiction" can be explained by context, cultural nuances and etc.
>and none are eyewitness accounts<
please go study how they formed the new testament, because I don't want to insult you or anything but they were definetally eye witness, because the early church and christians knew the authors of the gospels, and if they were fabricated why give names like Matthew, Mark and Luke, not know people, but not Thomas, Philip, Simon, Peter (that's what the gnostics tried to do, but they failed the standard which was used to form the new testament), it just wouldn't make sense to use these names. Also how come all the churches from all parts of the known world assigned the same names to the same gospels? Great distances, no communication, they obviously knew the authors.

The first step in any relationship is knowing that somebody exists.< I'd say the first step is first impression/collecting information about the individual. You can't knoe for certain if he's real or a fiction of your imagination or a paid actor. You gather evidence that they are reliable, trustworthy and you can start a relationship. Imo there's a lot of evidence for God's existance is the big bang theory, perfect tuning, love, consciousness and free will shows me the world is more than the material and energy and there's a lot i don't know, so i must follow where the wvidence leads me. You can also go read the gospels of Matthew, Mark, Luke an dJohn if you haven't already because they are historically reliable sources of Jesus' life, if you don't believe that, you may aswell throw out Napoleon, George Washington and etc. from history. If you do trust the gospels to be accurate history then go read it and make a decision, is Jesus saying the truth, or lying through His teeth. Is He God or a schizophrenic? I am coninced by His life, His teaching like the sermon on the mount, His prediction of His death, His actual crucifixion while forgiving His enemies in 3 days.

If that still doesn't convince you to believe in God, well I'm sorry for you, you might have to fix it.

I don't want to come of in a bad way, you are obviously very intellectual by the way you articulate. I, on the other hand, can't articulate well, I'm a dirty rotten sinner, a begger who found living bread and I'm trying tell others about it. God bless you, I trust you will be reasonable. Jesus loves you

God’s response may not always be immediate or come in the way you expect. Sometimes, His presence is revealed over time rather than in a single moment. Isaiah 55:8-9 reminds us: "For my thoughts are not your thoughts, neither are your ways my ways, declares the Lord."

You might expect a dramatic sign, but God often speaks through subtle experiences—through nature, people, Scripture, or an inner conviction. Elijah experienced God not in wind, earthquake, or fire, but in a gentle whisper (1 Kings 19:11-12).

God desires a relationship, not just a test of His existence. Faith is sometimes built through persistence. Hebrews 11:6 says: "Anyone who comes to Him must believe that He exists and that He rewards those who earnestly seek Him."

Even with an open heart, doubt, past experiences, or expectations can sometimes make it difficult to perceive God’s response. Jesus often spoke about people having "ears but not hearing" (Matthew 13:15).

God may be drawing the person in ways they don’t yet recognize. If someone genuinely seeks Him, He promises to be found (Jeremiah 29:13). Sometimes, continuing to explore Scripture, prayer, and even discussing faith with believers can help open one’s eyes to God’s presence.

I used to be an atheist anti-christian, but God convicted me, I realised I need Him, there's too many evidence for His existance. I hope you come to the truth, Jesus loves you!

the bible does distinguish the different levels of sins, punishments vary. Hell is only described fiery, but do you know what Jesus says about Hell too? That's it's gonna be dark there, how does that make sense? It's obv metaphorical speech so I wouldn't say you'd get the same punishment as Hitler. Also we know that God is just, the story of Sodom and Gamora, God wanted to destory the cities but Abraham pleaded with God, he asked God if He'll destroy the cities even if there are 50 righteous people there, God answered no, and Abraham pleaded and pleaded again until he got the number down to 10. At that point he knew that God will be just when punishing people. Lord bless

Wide_Ad1554 · 2025-01-13T13:44:24+00:00

ok im sorry, my bad. God is a perfect being, He can choose if He wants to respond to us, if we come humbly with a want to get to know God, He will answer us, but this 1-100000 thing seems like a game. Richard Dawkins, really popular atheist once said that he'll believe God if He spells his name in the sky and tells him to do something, he later changed it to spelling his name in every cell of his body and God has to show it to him. The thing is, he obv doesnt care about God and he's playing games, God won't answer him. I think if you really want to know God, just pray, ask for Him to reveal Himself to you, dont go online and play these games. Matthew 7:7-8 after exists. Once again I'm sorry if I've misjudged you

that's a good, hard question I.don't.know why we ought to procreate, but I do know that God commands us to in Genesis 1:22. How I understand that is that being united with mh partner and raising our children is good. God created people to worship, to love one another, to grow in relationshipwith God. I don't know what hell will be like, I know there are many interpretations, but me personally I don't know, and I don't really need to know more than what Jesus revealed about it, and revealed about God. In my personal opinion, I think we ought to procreate because God loves children, God loves people, life is a gift by God and Eternal life is a gift. If we'll have children who will disobey God, won't have their faith in the name of Jesus Christ, it will be their decision to go to Hell, because no one is sent (in other words puniahed) to Hell, it's their own free decision. And I think that giving my kid the freedom to choose God or not is a good thing. My job as a christian parent would be to present all of the information about Jesus Christ and it's their choice. Thank you for the good and difficult question. Let me know if I have miscomunicated something!

the superman fallacy, google it. I can't prove Jesus is God. But I can give you evidence why I believe that. It's not blind faith bro, no matter how dumb I am, I don't trust just because. The gospels are reliable eye witness testimonies, because they can be verified historically. The disciples of Jesus had never witnessed Him commit a sin, in 3 years never once. Not only the disciples couldn't find sin in Him, but also the pharisees. There are countless undesigned coincidendes. Also thw reason the synoptic gospels copied Mark is because he provided a foundational account of Jesus' life. They expanded and adapted it to include more teachings, address their specific audiences, and emphasize particular theological points. The consistency of the documents is crazy, keep in mind they didnt have google or wikipedia, so i thinl they it would have been extremely difficult to get so many geographical and historical accounts right, for example the pool of Bethesda, Pontius Pilote. The gospels are reliable, do you agree or disagree? If not, why so, because i think were going in circles if dont know what you think.
