http://www.godvsthebible.com/ Addressing the apparent paradox of the belief in a supernatural First Cause of a strictly natural universe. Why am I so skeptical about claims of revelation, magic and fantastic beings in the Bible? EDIT TO ADD: On reflection, I'm a little embarrassed on how easily I adopted the word "supernatural" in discussing God. As this other video by WizardJim that I just saw points out, it's a nonsense word: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=83iOOfVnhmY Based on usage, it seems to mean nothing more than something we don't understand. Hypothetically, if I'm right that there is a First Cause, than it must also have properties that could be theoretically understood with enough knowledge. Anything that exists should be "natural" by definition. My bad. Well, it's beside the point of this video anyway, which is to explore how someone can believe in a Creator but still reject all the nonsense of the Bible.
