This is so good. Thank you for sharing Francis and the Unbelievable team!
Thank you for sharing how this man is a baby killer advocate and a evolutionist right along with his buddy Tom wright. Collins is the "Christian" version of Fauci. With a "brother" like that, who needs real enemies. But what do I know, perhaps I listen to too much Harris, White and Wilson....
Thanks Justin. Love your work.
I hope you'll have a chat with biologist Kenneth Miller. Thanks Justin 😊👍🌺
Francis doesn’t seem to share the frozen three part waterfall confirming the Trinity story these days. I wonder why? /s
Lewis' "Liar, Lunatic, or Lord" argument - which Collins is referring to - is deeply flawed.
Good ole Pascal’s wager
How do we know if He or anyone else is a Real Christian ✝️ 🤔 The answer, according to Jesus's own words is MARK16:17-20.
Go home

Hopefully, It will arrive before Jesus comes back 🙏🧙♂️👍
It's an argument from incredulity or ignorance. Any god can answer any question. It's a personification of the unknown
But is it true ?
These is a Question and Yes we can be wrong but now, I think we're right.
And that's the point, I couldn't knew anything about extra terrestrial religion or Mythologie but i knew something about terrestrial religion and Mythologie.
And that's brings me to the point that Christianity is true.
So I am a Christian.
@@thinkingandwondering4725 not sure what you mean. God is a panacea answer to any question. Any question you can think of, God can answer it. That isnt good reason to believe it
thats not true at all. Only a God that is immaterial, necessary eternal, timeless, immaterial, and that is goodness itself can explain everything
@@spooky6902 thats not true, God cant answer everything, God can answer why something exists rather than nothing, why the universe is orderly, why humans are important and why it matters whether we live a good life or evil life, God can answer many of the important questions which all lead to us to God, the one's who are truly seeking, the reality is many of run in the other direction for their own autonomous selfish desires which get the best of alot of us.
@@ceceroxy2227 what question can't a God explanation answer? Magic fairies can explain existence, order, and morality.
So he's only here because of cs Lewis?
Yeah. C.S. lead him to J.C. It all makes sense in the christian apologist world. keep it simple, stupid....don't question anything...just go with the program and you'll be just fine.
@@danbailey2964 you make very little of that sense you're talking about...
@@joeadrian2860 Tell my what doesn't makes sense. The inconsistency of 'if he gets one thing wrong then he's wrong on everything'? Or the fact that the bible is inconsistent and has errors?
@@danbailey2964 the bible has errors? what errors are we talking about here? so your reasoning has concluded the specific errors are more important than what is going on?
@@gjeacocke bailey isn't interested in really knowing, just arguing. Don't bother wasting your effort by throwing beautiful pearls before swine. If there was some genuineness there then it would be different
I don't believe this man one bit. He says all the right words. But thankfully God is our just judge and not me
I completely distrust him as well.
What do you not believe?
Why?
Why?
@@alda2086 I think he is a flat out liar
I don't believe anything out of Collins mouth.
He's horribly evil! "Ye shall know them by their fruits"
Why is that so ...I know little about him.?
Why?
Modern Christians don’t follow the teachings of Jesus, or Paul. They follow C S Lewis. This is probably a good thing. For example, most now seem to think people choose to go to hell, which is much nicer than what is claimed in the Bible. Very decent fellow, Lewis, it’s a shame that the early loss of his mother gave him such a desperate need for love that he couldn’t resist the pabulum of religion.
What do you even mean? Its always been this way yes you either choose good or evil, heaven or hell ( free will) has always been part of christianity and judaism since genesis ( meaning the beginning) so i have no idea what you mean.
@@nemea6698 don't forget the part where Jesus said to his disciples: "you didn't choose me but I chose you to go.....". If you have sin nature then you never choose what is good unless Christ reveals himself to you. Only then is your will FREE to chose what is right.
@@nemea6698 Surely you must be aware that many Christians don’t believe in free will at all? Haven’t you heard Christians say that God doesn’t send people to hell, and that is is merely a state of being apart from God? None of that is scriptural.
@@joeadrian2860 Can’t you see that’s nonsense? If God chooses you or not, how can you resist him? Read Romans 9.
@@davethebrahman9870 don't read Romans out of context. And no it's actually not nonsense at all. Just because someone wrote an autobiography doesn't mean you actually "know" them. That is why the scriptures can say (in Romans) that the gospel is the stench of death who are perishing yet it is the aroma of life to those being saved. Do we save ourselves? Or does God save us...and we just take it from there? So you believe in a deist God? Or a God that actually saves you?
