This reminds me of a fascinating story I read,of when in the 1970s Daniel Everett,a linguist and Christian went to the Amazon jungle to convert a tribe called the piraha people to Christianity and completely failed for one crazy reason 😂😂 When Daniel Everett arrived with his wife and kids at the remote Pirahã village in the Amazon, His mission was clear…learn their language,translate the New Testament,and convert this isolated hunter gatherer group to Christianity. What he encountered instead was one of the most radical cultural and linguistic worldviews ever documented 😂. From his experience,Everett eventually formalized what he called the “Immediacy of Experience Principle”. What this means in essence is the Pirahã culture and grammar strongly constrain what can be meaningfully discussed or believed…to them,knowledge must be anchored in direct,personal observation or at most in the recent testimony of living people you know. Things that happened long ago,that no one alive has seen,or that exist only in abstract or supernatural realms fall into the category of what they called xibipío (“gone out of experience”). They don’t deny it outrightly.. to them, such things simply carry no weight and are not worth serious talk. This principle shapes everything for them… and is why they have No creation myths or origin storis , No numbers beyond rough quantities like “a few” or “many.” , No recursive embedding in grammar (you can’t easily say “kelvin’s brother’s house” … you say two separate sentences). Their Stories and discourse stay tethered to the here and now. Now Christian theology, by contrast, is built on precisely the kind of claims the Pirahã worldview filters out…A distant creation,Miracles and events from thousands of years ago, A savior no living person has met, Salvation and afterlife described in ancient texts. Everett tried …He told them the story of Jesus..his birth,teachings,death,and resurrection. The Pirahã listened politely,then asked the questions their language and culture demanded… “Have you met this man?” “Did you see him?” “Did your father see him?” When Everett admitted he had not , that these events happened 2,000 years earlier and were known only through a book,the conversation effectively ended 😂. “That’s interesting,” some of them would say, treating the Gospel the same way they treated any other distant tale…as something outside lived experience, therefore irrelevant to how they live and what they believe. Notice It wasn’t hostile rejection(like the one you’d get from the people of the sentinel islands in India). It was epistemological incompatibility. The theology couldn’t even gain traction because their entire system of knowledge validation rejected second hand ancient testimony. Everett kept trying for years. He failed to produce a usable Bible translation. Meanwhile, living among people who were profoundly content, generous, and empirically grounded …with no concept of sin, eternal punishment, or a distant deity. By 1982 he himself started havinv serious doubts about his beliefs and by 1985 he had quietly become an atheist. The man who had come to convert the Pirahã had instead been “converted” by their way of seeing reality.😅 As Everett later wrote and said in interviews, the deepest challenge wasn’t an argument against Christianity. It was living inside a culture where the very criteria for what counts as real knowledge made supernatural historical claims feel as weightless as yesterday’s dream. The Pirahã didn’t need to debate theology. Their language and worldview simply had no slot for it and, in the process, they helped a missionary lose his faith without ever raising their voices.😂 Makes you wonder, what would a Christian say the fate of these people is? Eternal torment? We can all see how that would be problematic. Would they somehow make heaven and get judged by how they live their lives? But That would make the whole Christian message irrelevant. 🙂

Me: If God is omnipotent, why does he allow evil to exist? Pastor: Evil exists because we have free will: Me: Is there evil in heaven? Pastor: Of course there is no evil in heaven. Me: Is there free will in heaven? Pastor: Yes! ... wait ..No! ...ummm 🧐 Me: logic and common sense is annoying isn’t it ? 🤣 Pastor: .. I’ll be praying for you kelvin … 😭

They never state what gender the virgins are 😅

The debate with Christian’s is inherently a waste of time …Christianity and Islam are the most implausible made up nonsense humans have ever conjured up… If they weren’t trying to impose their beliefs on others or make it influence laws,most skeptic would not give a fuck.

Religious people don’t believe they evolved… I agree.

Mary Magdalene in the book of john ran to the disciples after she couldn’t find Jesus in the tomb and tells them “they’ve taken the lord , and we do not know where they have put him” This is a very strange thing for her to say as in the book of Matthew , when she got to the tomb , she was visted by an Angel who told her EXACTLY where Jesus has gone and she even met Jesus himself on her way to deliver this message to the disciples. This is just one of hundreds of contradictions that can be found in the bible written by confused authors lying they were divinely inspired.

The World Cup feels really dry cus the big boys have not played.

plane crashes in India, 251 people die, 1 person survives, people say it was God that saved him.. How about the other 251 people? Which included children! Morons.

They gave bro water in hell just to laugh at him 😂

Religious people should do better

If they put you in jail and say you could only leave if you solved a Rubik’s cube … how long would you be in jail for?

It’s not even close

lol no shit
