Many thanks. Love your work. One thing that you're missing: Magic is real. I myself come from the top family of the Satanic world and we rule over the earth by way of pacts with demons and Satan himself. "Gillette, the best a man can get" being the family slogan, should truly read "Gillette, the BEAST a man can get." We own everything and everybdoy and there is no truth that we haven't bought and paid for. Penn Gillette as the representative of the clan within stage magic is paralleled by Grand Magus of the Church of Satan, Peter H. Gil-more. If you want a citation that proves this point, I'll be glad to post it in my next comment. For some reason the Christian church refuses to acknowledge the reality of the paranormal, and thereby cedes the argument by not taking note of the evidence. One excellent place to start one's personal investigation into this issue is by way of NPR's show "Snap Judgement" via its series "Spooked." The episodes going back to the introduction of the annual series a few years ago are archived online, the most eompelling stories featured in the first two seasons. And I can provide more.

I heard that the etymology of Yahweh was that Moses asked pharaoh to let his people go. And pharaoh said, "No way." And Moses said, "Yah way."

Great guest with so much rich information to share. Communicates in a captivating and easy to understand for a layman like myself. I’ve bought the book while watching and picturing it reading as smooth as she communicates her message verbally.
Please, do NOT play music while doing interviews. It's a needless and truly irritating distraction.

Great show. Love Inanna and Enheduanna. This quote reflects the early poem, “The Descent of Inanna”, in which she went to the Abzu, visited En, got him drunk , did the dance of the seven veils, and he gave her the Mes.

For the message of the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing, but to us who are being saved it is the power of God. For it is written:
“I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, And bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.”
Where is the wise? Where is the scribe? Where is the disputer of this age? Has not God made foolish the wisdom of this world? - 1 Cor. 1:18-20
It's amazing how you're quoting words from a letter Paul wrote to the Corinthians as a response to questions that were put to him. This topic has nothing to do with Corinthians you know
@@zamunda_king The message of the cross is not about the Corinthians, It's about God recounciling man back to God through Jesus Christ. Of course aethist's such as Dr.Francesca wouldn't understand or "foolishness to her" as Paul mentioned.
@@kitmateyawa7829 the cross is a symbol it signifies idolatry. So your idolatry message is also referred to as the message of the cross created by the pope and the Roman empire is foolishness and a fraud. It's for people who don't think for themselves to believe because the white man had worked to brainwash many to accept this fraud of centuries called Christianity
Paul. The worlds greatest fraud.
@@kitmateyawa7829 Who told you that it's about God? Isn't the same white people who wrote the bible and used it to colonize you, to brainwash you and enslave you?

I will have to get her book. I sure enjoyed "The Invention of God" by Thomas Romer and the "Evolution of God" by Robert Wright as well. I like to absorb the perspective of those who have obtained the education and are willing to share with others. Thank you.
Conceptually, It's all wrong. It's an interesting, albeit basic, perspective, but not representative to the reality experienced by the layman of that day.
I read it last spring, highly recommend it.

Yahweh was just one of the many Anunnaki gods. He was brought before the Anunnaki council for infringing on other Anunnaki territory. He was removed from Earth as punishment and that is why you do not hear of Yahweh since 600 BC.
@@davidclark573 Yaldabaoth was also known as Yahweh, and a Canaanite God named Yahweh pretended to be God. But it really came from a mistranslation. YHWH was a translation from the Greek to the Hebrew Bible, and it was originally ` I am that am.` When God told Moses what to tell the Jews his name was. it was a joke.
What a treat for you Derek, I could sit around asking Francesca questions all day.
THE 28 DAY lunar cycle is broken up into four 7 day periods (any civilization watching the moon would figure this out quite quickly) but yes these 7 days are often named for the 7 visible planets....
great discussion, I'll be grabbing this book!
Dude please drop the elevator music next time. Brutal! Just my opinion
"elevator music " - makes me wonder what kind of elevators you've been in.
Horrendous music
Francesca's work is alternately fearless, informative, and positively hilarious-'quite an achievement!
He work is informative but still an apologetic viewpoint as an atheist..
Also she laughs at the word biblical due to the fact that she knows that translated it means "history" it began the inspiration for the writing of the cosmologies by the various Greek phylosohers
Do some research on Francesca Le, she has some amazing work most will joy and find easy to understand.
Mythvision has now become my favourite youtube channel. Watched several vids - have now subscribed. Francesca is becoming my favourite scholar. I recently signed up for a Masters in Philosophy
Great interview... but... the background music was too loud and very distracting... nevertheless 🙏🙏🙏🙏👌👌👌👌👌👌🖖🖖🖖🖖🖖
Please have her on again!👏💜
There has been scholarly research done that describes Yahweh originally as a volcano god/ blacksmith god. Iron age, I think. Thus there are tons of references in the bible to fire and brimstone, mountains, and the like. Apparently the people in the region were awed by the new "magic" of blacksmithing due to its similarities to what volcanoes do, and for these people to produce items from it. Subsequently, Yahweh also became a god of war, because metal weapons were now able to be made. Yahweh is a god full of rage (like a volcano), and full of jealousy. For a long time he was just one god of many from a pantheon of regional desert tribes. El, I believe, was thought to be the main god.
Enough of your lies misinformation and gibberish. Soon you will be brought up for charges in front of God
@@tomreed-oe7hi 🤡🤡🤡🤡
EL is the God and some times as the father and Yahweh is the son?. Asherah is Queen of Heaven and wife of EL.

Not an outright approval for this book but I should say worth reading can't erase the more than 50 years of the same narratives about God since childhood.An open mind was necessary to understand this new thought to avoid conflict and still maintain the respect on both ideas and beliefs.❤

Amazing that One of the 3 most respected Spiritual orders at the time of Jesus were the Essene's, they must be very important for everyone never to mention them ne.
Ever since I read God: An Anatomy (GREAT book!!) I've wondered if the first temple had a statue of Yahweh and Asherah in it. My theory is basically this: 1) archeology indicates that both ordinary Israelites and even elites believed in "Yahweh and his Asherah" throughout the First Temple period, including having statues of both in their homes, so this was apparently normal; 2) while trying to put idols in the temple in the Maccabean period and later instantly led to revolt, Kings and Chronicles record at least three times when kings put idols in the temple, with no record or hint of a hostile reaction from the people, so perhaps it was normal to them...and even the post-Babylonian Captivity editors couldn't fake it; 3) the idea that there should be no idols of Yahweh seems to have been one of those rules added after the Babylonians conquered Jerusalem - so maybe a reaction to having their god's statues carried away?; 4) since the rest of the design of the Jerusalem first temple was so in line with all the other temples from that region, it would seem reasonable to expect that that feature would be there too.
I'd love to know what Dr. Stravrakopoulou and others think of that idea?
Yeah, maybe the idea of humans creating idols of Gods to worship was in jealousy of other idols, and fear of the ability to be destroyed the way his cultists destroyed others. Either way, it's against artful expression and a core function of humanity.
_archeology indicates that both ordinary Israelites and even elites believed in "Yahweh and his Asherah" throughout the First Temple period_
You should read The Bible, as the basic premise is that of the _Israelites_ worshipping other deities.
It is certainly more convincing than the single _"Yahweh and his Asherah"_ presented by William Dever.
@@John.Flower.Productions The bible was edited to reverse engineer a monotheistic system into its stories during the Babylonian Captivity. It condemns all kinds of things (of course) but there is a particular focus on condemning worship of Asherah, and of Baal. It makes one suspect that exclusive worship of Yahweh just did not take hold until the captivity.
@@njhoepner _It makes one suspect that exclusive worship of Yahweh just did not take hold until the captivity._
It all but proves that the exclusive worship of יהוה (YHWH) and/or אל (EL) was never a reality. Even so, that is far from being indicative of widespread _"Yahweh and his Asherah"_ practices.
"yahweh and his ashera" is a dumb jokes the jews use to signify "God and his ass" or a donkey on an upside down cross they keep in their temple.
Dr. Stavrakapoulou is a treasure! Looking forward to more videos with her and I'm buying her book when I get paid. :)
I bought the book on Audible and loved it! Thank you for this interview.
Fascinating always, how my species, with whom I am constantly enbarrassed, sadly creates deities in its own image.
Are you even human?
This was a very nice session. Glad to discover dr Stavkrapoulou. Her take on John the Baptist and Jesus I find very interesting. It has that notion of "yeah that was the real drama" for a group of people, who's number one guy got murdered.
I want to add my own idea (and hope it reaches dr Stravkapoulou and hope she will answer me) I think that Jesus was John's successor. They were both big important leaders in a fractious movement that leaned very much to the Essenic way. Like Essenic for the masses (who also need Salvation). And maybe they toyed with the idea that "they", one of their ranks, could become Messiah. Cause that all got kicked of with the 70 weeks Daniel shit. So, dr. S. if you please?
Also good to know that Yahweh had a humanoid representation.
YOU think ???
No meter what your thinking meter is what histrocity we find , she only goes with mythvision 😅😅😅
she is an atheist, she doesnt believe or think anything - dry facts only. your thoughts and ideas mean nothing to her. she doesn't have any ideas of her own, deduction is driving her brain.
Who' that in the thumbnail?
Kind of close but not there yet John the Baptist was a real character whom the inventors of Christianity try to destroy an take his place by placing the fictitious character of Jezeus in his place this is clear as water 🌊 n their own writing's when they put words in their literary version of John an try to deminish him an his work also it should not escape the intelligent mind that John till this day has a group of follower's real follower's not fake follower's made by a corporate religious organization this should be mind blowing but not many people. knows that
@@elimelek5569 Stick with your native language; this is gibberish.
Dr. Francesca's 2022 book GOD: AN ANATOMY is outstanding. Especially when we carefully consider that the Biblical God is supposed to lack any anatomical features whatsoever. After all, worshiping a God *with* an anatomy would be idolatry!
She is the best, between all of the great guests that you bring she's the best because not only she's knowledgable she also explains things really good, and actually I can end the episode without any stoppage.

If I may be honest. I think Francesca is infatuated with you Derek. This isn't my first rodeo lol. I'm 60 years old, tuored in professional bands. I kinda know signs. Lol.
She’s a beautiful woman and he is a handsome dude. They both were engaged and smiling throughout. He is married, no? Some of us are easy going and connect with good likeminded people easily. I think infatuated might be a bit strong.

Is this the stupid era where godless alone people are theologian (yes, sure when they believe there is No God, No Soul and No afterlife, how they can be theologian if they do not believe in GOD? that why thery are all full of BS) but they are so obsessed with us, because they live by reflection of what other people believe and not really have a real identity? Ye, Obsession, and BS that what they have to offer, just like their cult called Atheims. (do not lie, that is just but an empty cult) No respect for you and your godless miserable life. (They really stands on nothing, that how their life is... Nothing , but obsession for what other people believe, because they got less sacred things in their poor life)
then
DO NOT TELL ME THIS IS NOT A CULT AND THOSE PEOPLE ARE GODLESS ALONE PEOPLE WHO STANDS THEIR MISERABLE ON NOTHING AND ON WHAT OTHER PEOPLE BELIIEVE BECAUSE THEY ARE SO ALONE AND JELOUS OF US; WHO HAVE SO MANY THINGS SACRED IN OUR LIFE THAT THEY DO NOT: NO RESPECT FOR THEM. Imagine to be a godless alone idiot (without God) with No God and no dignity, into an empty worthelss cult called atheism that does not lead anywhere but your own lonlyness run any time you see godless ass to kiss it, because you do not have God in your miserable alone godless life.
what? Are you the godless alone idiot, you be f those instead him something done does when he stopped to believe in God? And that you removed God from your heart to put lies and shit from for this empty cult that both JG gives you, but BS and lonlyness... Let's hope this godless worthless generation will he over soon just as their stupid atheism. You are worthless to anyone, and also to you, godless alone (or Godless ass kisser without any dignity)
LET'S BE CLEAR TO THOSE GODLESS PEOPLE... WE ARE JUST TIRED OF YOU TALKING ABOUT WHAT YOU DO NOT EVEN BELIEVE;as obsessed idiots.
That why they always come here "saying they were Christian", or "Saying personal stuff about themselves" or "Saying something superficial" or "Makes stupid jokes" or "Laugh as stupids" (They do that because they have less secret things in their miserable life)... As be a Christian or a believer makes you have more to have more precious things in your live, and much worst to be a godless and soulless desperate (alone) idiot.
But any way... LET'S START AND SHOW HOW MUCH NONE WILL MISS THOSE PEOPLE AN THEIR EMPTY CULT WHEN IT WILL GO BACK FROM THE NOTHING IT COMES FROM... ALSO BECAUSE IT IS WORTHLESS... (And without God you are more worthless then the believers... that is simple the true).
Why godless alone people are obsessed with God?? and talk about him more then a believer? Well for many reason.... 1) About that BS called atheism there is not much things to say, no value, no sacred things and and it leads to nothing. 2 And then because they know they are so many godless alone people that will run to kiss their ass... 3 they do that so this cult can be alive, otherwise is destined to vanish, exactly from the nothing it comes... because is nothing but a cult that has nothing to offer to us and neither to the godless alone people who belonged to 4 And finally this cult will be vanished without those videos and those godless alone people will be just alone.
And who said the opposite is a godless alone hypocrite.
This cult called atheism is so empty... And those godless alone people really have nothing to offer to themselves.
They have less sacred things then us... what an idiots they are for that too.
Let's hope in a better generation because this is so lost.
You are into an empty cult that leads you nowhere... No respect for you, godless ass kisser.... You really left God to put BS and emptiness in your miserable Life. No Pity for you. (God is always you do not know)..... We need to move to a better generation, and Hope godless alone people like you will not exist anymore in the future (you are worthless your cult called atheism).
What you realised that Atheism is just an empty cult?
That Have nothing to offer to you, or to the humanity?
It leads to nowhere?
To the Obsession for God?
For Christianity?
That there is not comfort on it???
And that live and die as an alone godless person is not the best you can have?
Just as have the idea that once you die you will be Nothing (and Nothing you are now, as you become what you think you will be once death) is not the best for your mental and psychological stability?
Or have sacred things (as other people have) and you do not (such God) is so idiot that you are rething about everything and start to believe that Atheism is not but a BS, and a trap you are in???? They are patethic and worthless as their empty cult called atheims, which will not lead them anywhere, but a alone godless desperate life that they will never admit it. No respect for them. THAT IS JUST AN EMPTY CULT, AND WHEN IT AND THOSE GOLDESS WORTHELSS SOULESS PEOPLE WILL BE BACK TO THE NOTHING THEY COME FROM, NONE WILL COMPLAIN ABOUT THAT. NO RESPECT FOR THEM AND THEIR NO SENSE CULT (godless ass kisser, with no dignity)... THEY BRING EMTPTYNESS as their cult called atheism... Shame on them and their desperation....
Anyway only a pathetic person can learn something from someone who explain you a thing obsessively that does not even believe... (with videos that are not helpful for their life...) WHAT AN EMPTY NONSENSE MODERN CULT YOU ARE TRAPPED IN, AND YOU ARE NOT AWARE OF........ Atheism is just empty BS, but those godless alone people are so sad to do not get... Let's hope in the new generation, this one is so lost, and none will cry when their worthelss atheism will be over.
Your wortheless empty Atheism is dragging you to the nothing it give to you (and to us) but you are too pathetic (as atheism) to get it. No repesct for you godless ass kisser. No respect for you Godenier...
You just worth as your atheims: 0.
For real what an empty cult... when this worthelss cult will be over none will complain... Our faith is much stronger then your empty BS. Deal with it. (it is far better to be a God believer, then a godless alone person as you in an empty cult that does not give us and even to you anything)..... THIS IS A CULT, in which those godless patetich people does not deserve any respect.they life stand on nothing, and nothing they bring. Let's move on with a better generation, none will remember this one....
I am just here for francesca. She got my click everytime
my favorite RPG fantasy book of all time is bible and torah
i just got her book god an anatomy.boy oh boy this chic got ball writng that,highly educational too.
Thanks for doing a version without the music. 👍 No one can say you don’t listen 🤩
Francesca should start her own forum. I love the tangable connections she makes to diety worship and daily functions, food, sex, defication, etc. She is brilliant.
Such a shame that many people are not willing to see their beliefs for what they truly are, mythology
People can believe what they want....people should learn that their myths are not substitutes for rational thoughts
@@kumarg3598 wouldn't that be nice. I live in the USA, where god is shoved in our face daily. He decides who controls pregnancy, who is elected, who we are allies with, who is allowed access to medical care, what is taught in school, how we address climate change. It is crazy that a non existent being has such a hold on our culture .
They want to live forever. It's the oldest scam.
Biblical history is heavily intertwined with secular history (recorded by non-Israeli nations), whereas most mythologies are disconnected from what is generally accepted secular history.
YT always reposting 9-11 videos this time of year. I think that's the turn in my life where I started to resist belief in Divine existence.
The Shasu were semi-nomadic tribes mostly in the Southern Levant and are frequently attested to in Egyptian texts. Many scholars believe that this dwelling place of theirs is a toponym for a deity they worshipped named Yahu(w), or YHWH.
You know it's going to be good when it opens with music from Skyrim.

Thank you for this great information about the Bible. It is Amazing to hear what might be seen as the truth.
Interesting how a person who does not believe in a God puts her life work into studying the God.
Perhaps she will be blessed by the God she doesn't accept for it ❤.
Yes, and all the classicists will be blessed by Zeus and Jupiter.
You must admit that it’s fascinating how billions of people believe various myths and sometimes live by them. Why not study the myths, human gullibility, human mind, or any other area related to religious people.
@@AA-le7ii agreed, what a silly premise it is to insinuate that something is secretly real or else no one would study it with effort. It’s small hearted and insulting
I find it interesting that Academic Atheists seem to make a pretty good living trying to debunk the God of the Bible. As a Christian, I find that oddly comforting.
@@christinag.2137 no real scholar is trying to debunk anything, they’re just approaching it with clarity. Do you think the scholars studying ancient Greek religion are trying to debunk Zeus? Should a Zeus-believer be comforted by that? Should a buddhist be comforted by people getting PhDs in buddhism? Telling the truth about the history of something doesn’t attack the thing itself, it only lays bare delusion and brainwashing.
I just can't watch the video because of the background music. I wish there was a way we could have an option to turn it off.

This book was incredible, Francesca needs to write more books.
My definition of "YHVH" is accepted in the various occult societies, eg, the "Hermetic Order of the Golden Dawn." It's well described in Franz Bardon's book, "Initiation into Hermetics." It's the essence of existence, creation, consciousness: The "I AM." I don't know if the ancient Israelites understood this, or that the name "Yahweh" in the O.T. was not ascribed to various local deities.
The Egyptian belief of Ra as the prime mover, the first Consciousness out of Chaos.
The question about Hindu gods made me do some reading. Turns out that around 500BCE there was a trinity concept with Brahma, Vishnu and Shiva. I think it's time to talk to some Hindu experts.
I agree ..with the Hindu they have many answers for such ancient time , many historian maybe feel they wont shine if they chat and find out real facts from India .. our history is too far gone into their beliefs and modern world 🌎 please don’t be afraid including the Indians wont harm this world.. so much to learn from this ancient nation ..cheers
A lot of things "God" said in the Bible are said by Krishna (avatar of Vishnu) in the Bhagavad gita
The Trimurit is a little different then the Father, Spirit (Mother), Son of Christianity and ancient Egyptian myth. One explains the three functions of motion, or three phases of material manifestation. And the other explains the relationship between Mind, Matter and Monad.
Hindu trinity is not comparable to Abraham idea. Each deity is the principle controller of the 3 gunas (modes of material nature) Satva(Existence/Sustenance), Rajas(Creativity) and Tamas(Destruction).
in buddhism there is the trikaya - which is the three aspects of the nature of each individuals mind - buddhism only deals with the mind which we all have - no need for all these spirits and gods -
Just started watching & I’m already fascinated
However
I wish there were no music in the background…
Thanks
Sadly I am skipping this interview
Since the music in the background is distracting my attention.
If you want a goto place in the video to hear some important words without watching the whole thing, try 1:36:20.
this is phenomenal work.
Phenomenally inaccurate. But what can I expect from a atheist and a Rotary member who worships Ishtar in hidden.

I love the music!!
Clickbait thumbnail (why not use an actual image of Francesca?); how is this a documentary? It's a few podcasts stuck together; fawning intro; elevator music; weird intro graphics - what's with the skull that looks like it's from a computer RPG? What's going on, Derek?
Dude.. Its okay if content is good enough.
Maybe too technically or pragmatically oriented but I must ask. It always struck me as irrational that the concept of ‘a day’ of time passing could be calculated before the creation of the Earth as a day is simply one revolution of the Earth around its axis. Therefore, before the creation of the Earth how did GD measure the span of a day’s worth of time? Perhaps by another method or basis of measure (assuming one believes literally in creation myth).
What a beautiful question. Very fair too. It’s questions like this they could stump most self-appointed apologists to shame. It is intelligent, well thought out and most importantly..... Unanswerable!
@@jeffknetzer856🤔 hmm let me think on it.
@@jeffknetzer856Time began with the creation of light not earth, planets, and stars. The primordial light was the first "day." Metaphorical not literal. "Day" as describing, alluding to, that which follows night/darkness. We arise with sunlight and begin our day. We are meant to understand spiritual things not stand alone science. I think 🙄 the creation "day" means to convey that message.
@@jeffknetzer856Time was in God to do. If God is our construct, it logically follows we created time. How is that possible when we did not always exist? Since we did not exist before time how then did we create time? Nothing exists w/o light not even water as far as I know? If water was in the cosmos in a mist it did not become useful until light acted upon it. Whether a six day creation is true or not, I think the science of its logical sequential order is spot on. I took a basic science class in college and how striking it was that science backs up the fact that light happened first. Did our super id do that? Light happened from compulsion? Light was the other side of the dark expanse and poked through because of compulsion? Why wasn't it ok just as it was? Why wasn't it enough? Why can light not leave well enough alone? It has its side. Dark has its. Hmm. Seems the nature / attribute? of light is to create. Sciencewise, does light possess all the elements to do such a thing? I don't know. If yes, it means elements pre-existed light but just as darkness is incapable of creating so too were elements. It logically concludes that the first "day" began with light and "time" had 0 to do with it. Time followed light just as creation did. Light assembled the elements to create everything into forms; everything a composite of same elements but differently arranged and not evolving from another. Extinction has occurred while adduction has not. We are human because we were created to be that from the start. Whatever we looked like several millennia ago the fact remains it was human. If that wasn't the case we should see ourselves in different stages of primate to human development today. Have a nice day 🎉
P.S. Prove elements volitionally existed with water vapors.
This is good. Dan Barker in 2016 said Christ boasted about being Yahweh. If true, it sort of changes things. I have followed this up with 2 books which look at Christ and the claim in terms of existentialism. You might be interested in reviewing the books, Christ Without the Nonsense and God Without the Nonsense.
This book is available at some nearby libraries. I will have to check it out!
Sorry. That background music ruined my ability to engage. So annoyingly invasive.
Please consider ditching the music in future. It’s a distraction not a help 🙏
Same as a movie that plays music while actors are talking, makes it hard for me to watch
The problem with the book is that it's full of woke feminism
I love woke and feminism
@@robinhood20253
Nowaday wokes are radicals
So you admit that God is a misogynistic oppressor?
If not, why are you against the book being woke feminism?
Many are complaining about the music, but I have to criticize pushing the book. Holy crap it is non-stop. It is like watching the home shopping network.
I bow my heart to you all my brother and sister for the tremendous work that you all do.l want to comment on the book of Genesis it starts off by saying in the beginning God (Elohim) created...that the beginning of Moses vision Genesis is not the first book of the Bible Exodus is. Please comment Thanks!❤
Thanks for acknowledging my comment pertaining to the point I made on Genesis the so called first book of the Bible 🙏
Elohim is plural and it really means Deities.
She says" I am an atheist and will always be an atheist". Curious. Why would she spend so much time researching Yahweh and spirituality? I think she leans more towards the agnostic. But whatever.
The same potential reason any scientist researches anything. Whether true or not the impact of myth and religion human civilization is undeniable. Some may want find out why and how that happened without actually believing in it.
@@mikeeb6308 Definition of belief.
An acceptance that a statement is true or that something exists.
All scientists wanna believe but till they do they're agnostic. They wouldn't search something out if they don't want to understand or believe. She obviously has an interest.
It's a typical misunderstanding that an atheist is distinct from an agnostic. They are two different scales. Atheism/theism is about belief in a divine entity. Gnosticism/agnosticism is concerned with the availability of knowledge. Most atheists are agnostic.
@@Sparhafoc Well, that's for sure she's in pursuit of knowledge.
@@russofam.1090 The availability of knowledge with respect to the existence of deities. Most atheists don't believe there is any availability of knowledge regarding the existence of deities. Whether such a category of entities exists or not is beyond human knowledge or even the ability of humanity ever to perceive (i.e. the outside of time and space ontology). That doesn't mean gods certainly don't exist, but it does mean that the numerous historical claims to knowledge, which are not available to us, aren't acceptable to agnostic atheists.
Most atheists are agnostic like most theists are gnostic... but there's no obligation either way. One could be an agnostic theist - not believing there's actual knowledge of the divine, but believing in the divine's existence nevertheless. Meanwhile, one can be a gnostic atheist, declaring that knowledge is sufficient to contend that no gods exist. I have met a few of those two groups, but it's usually agnosticism + atheism, and gnosticism + theism.
Love it! Love it!
God can't be explained through a secular carnal mind. However the blind can share a blind perspective together and it'll make sense to them.
"The record shows, I took the blows, I did it Yahweh."
Francesca is a doll...brilliant too.
Why the need to objectify women ?
@@robinhood20253When did admiring someone’s natural beauty become objectifying??🤨
@@robinhood20253he just complimented her beauty. He didn't say anything inappropriate
"Objectify" is a pretty harsh word. Sorry you were offended.
@@aaronaragon7838 Aaron, don’t apologize, you didn’t do anything wrong.
Enlil, as mentioned in the Sumerian tablets, was the Yahweh that Hebrew talked about. There was never 1 God in the original description in the bible but the god were referred to as the "Powerful ONES" which referred to Elohim (Plural) then changed to a single God by the Romans and the Hebrew that called him Yahweh (singular).
Akhenaten came before the Romans but he didn't last long enough to firmly cement monotheism....
Yahweh slaughtered multitudes of people and made Kings do the same. Jesus did not recognize Yahweh as GOD the Father. Jesus referred to the Father as the Hindu and others call Creation, Source, Big Bang, The spark that Created everything. That being said Jesus didn't recognize any of the Annunaki as GOD.rel I think Yahweh/Enlil is what religion calls Satan. Leading people through lies and deceit. Calling for wars in the name of GOD. Causing wars from the beginning. I think he was taking souls for HELL. Jesus will throw him into the Lake of Fire and finally release us from his torment.
No Yahweh was a minor god of storms and volcanos, not Enlil.
@@dougs7367 If you read the Sumerian texts, and as explained by Billy Carson and Mathew LaCroix two of the most experienced individuals in this field, they will tell you that the Yahweh is Enlil as the Sumerians described him. His entire character, the laws and demands he put on the earth and on to the people are exactly the same figure.
@@WCtrainer1Enlil translates as, the far away/distant God that appears. Abraham and Moses both refer to Yahweh as the God who appeared to them.
However Elohim is the Canaanite pantheon of gods and as such should be always translated as lower case gods sometimes even as false gods.

Great interview! Got the book and love it! Reading it for a 2nd time now!
Is this video a reboot?
I seem to remember having watched it already
Clicked for the hot girl in the thumbnail, stayed because I grew up Jehovah's Witness and thought i knew everything about God and the Bible. Holy cow was i wrong. In a way it's kind of sad that this god doesn't exist.. i watch a lot of Rabbi Tovia Singer videos and if that god did exist he makes the most sense I've heard of anyone else and Christianity is total bs.
Do you realize that Tovia's god is the god talked about in this video???
The hot girl is too hot to be real
Research D N A unless you are a lizard person .
See if you can work it Out ???
These selfish entities created us as slave,and have been manipulating us to increase their domains,and principalities since the beginning,but they are nothing without our worshipping,they feed off or energy 🤔
and use our ladies
Will get her book. Hopefully, it's on Audible
It is
@@MrFireman164 thanks 🙂
I dont know but the best part of this video was the sacrifice part where they talk about god taking food. The smells of roast meat is pleasing to god? I wish they would have put a citation where exactly ancient say this. Would be a nice read. Rest of it would be interesting I guess but I couldn't catch it.
The best part of this video for me is the woman in the thumbnail 😂
@@Botsy-Collinslol woman like her would be good I think yeah
Love the interview but the elevator music is about to kill me over here.
Yup man made god in his image with clay and then .... Yah ba da ba Wehhhhhhh!
Just bought the book from this interview. Cant wait to read it
This topic is very interesting to me but I could not watch it with the music going in the background. It was too distracting. I hope you will upload a version of this video without the music. The video you have labeled below as "The videos without music" is not the same video, not the same subject.
The problem with biblical interpretive research is most of the work comes from solid Christians trying to fortify the Bible’s accuracy or atheists who try to prove God doesn’t exist. Both sides are not credible as both sides end up driving an agenda rather than joining in an honest study of history - as accurate as we can get it. This video bashes Christians throughout, even getting political by bashing Trump. I see two people with an equal blinding ideology as Christians have - only opposite. There are many content creators who delve into this topic without the religious emotional pollution. Mind you, atheism is just as much of a cult with doctrine as Christianity is. Your fervor for your belief system is aimed at shaming Christian’s as Christians shame you. I hope you veer far away from your religion of no-God to be simply unbiased apolitical researchers. Your information could become more valuable. I have to discard this research because of your bias as I discard the works of Christians.
To get to the truth we all need to meet in the middle and free the discussion of God altogether.
My goal is to free the spiritual almighty- whatever that entity is from what I believe is simply a retell of much more ancient history than what the Bible relates.
My research has nothing to do with disproving an almighty spiritual realm. That cannot be proven or disproven.
Never the less this discussion is essential and hopefully can be done by all parties without the unnecessary bias.
Good intention. But can't be done. People are born with bias.
