Will he eventually take the bread pill and become Christian?
>>18104685he should take the buddhist pill
>>18104685He should take the Pint pill and become CoE Anglican.
>>18104685He should browse this board but I don't think he does
>>18104685>he doesn't realize alex is still a total fedora who hides his power level for viewsPretending that you used to be a fedoralord but have since realized Christianity is quite reasonable and who knows, one day you might convert, is a top tier grift. It attracts a large Christian audience because it both flatters them and appeals to their savior complex.You're an easy mark.
>>18104685Yeah maybe. Gotta remember he went full vegan as his religion and looked like a corpse. Why not swing the exact other way where it's about eating the flesh and blood of a god.
>>18104685Queer face.
>>18104774This is true Kek, most of his fans seem to be Christians.
>>18104733fpbp checked etc.
>>18105042>most of his fans seem to be Christians.Fucking really? That's nuts
>>18104685He was a Christian. He studied theology specifically for that reason. I don't usually hear of people deconverting, then reconverting. I think he's too open minded to really lump himself in with any mainstream religion at this point, although it's clear there are many aspects of Christianity he still admires.
>>18105196I got that impression by reading plebbit.
>>18104685Nah, he's on the cusp of becoming fully BASED, but his Bri'ish brainrot indoctrination of an education is causing great cognitive dissonance. He'll either become an alcoholic and/or a limp-wristed, low-grade, secular, self-help guru grifter type, and probably make zillions doing it too.
>>18104685No. His extensive and unparalleled history of anti-Christian polemics comes from a place of resentment. He’s an early 2010s liberal plebbit atheist. He didn’t spend all those years arguing against Christianity because he would embrace it but had serious logical doubts that made him hesitant, he did it because he hates Christianity because he was indoctrinated from a young age against it and was embedded in the “I heckin LOVE SCIENCE” cult. He does care about logical debate. He attacked Islam once and never did it again, openly admits he won’t do it because he can’t take the heat. Doesn’t attack every other religion. His only enemy is Christianity because he knows Christians aren’t going to doxx him and send him (credible) death threats, and instead of gaining respect for them for that, he takes their kindness for weakness and views them as a legitimate target for further abuse. He has toned it down a bit recently but the resentment and condescension slips through his makes from time to time even now. I’d be willing to actually listen to him and consider his arguments if I knew he was doing it in good faith, but ever since I discovered him when I was young I viewed him as a belligerent asshole. He’s acknowledged that most of his viral arguments were illogical and fallacious and came from a place of hate, and I somewhat respect that, but he only did that so his newer arguments are taken seriously
>>18106166I'm curious, are there any critics of Christianity who you think are sufficiently nice and respectful?
>>18104774lol it's easy to con christians.
>>18104685>Will he eventually take the bread pill and become Christian?No. All his lameass metaphysical arguments for the existence of a “creator” are vague and don’t necessarily have anything to with Abrahamic faith.All religious arguments always reduce to this gay ass binary of either Christianity (which won’t even be the largest religion in like 10 years) or atheism. He frankly seems too smart to fall for that dumbass shit.
>>18106353Unfortunately I don’t remember any of them. I’ve watched many in the past, and those were the ones that made me seriously think. The problem is I’ve forgotten them all. I’m 22 now, but from 11 to perhaps 17 I was agnostic. I would listen to many people with various perspectives and I was never someone so biased as to not consider that Christianity may be wrong. None of this is to say that there aren’t respectful critics of Christianity who are doing it in good faith from a place of genuine truth-seeking, it’s just that I don’t remember who I used to watch and read online back then. I haven’t gotten in with the newer crowd of critics so I don’t know who’s around today that’s good. I only remember people from back when that I didn’t like, none of the ones I liked, funny how that works.
>>18106353>>18106391I’ll look into some newer people, and if I find people that I think are putting in serious effort and I don’t think they’re doing it in bad faith from a place of resentment, who are willing to hear out the opposition, I’ll let you know. Even if this thread dies, there will inevitably be another thread soon where people are comparing different people who debate Christians, I’ll be the guy saying “Someone once asked me in another thread who I like and respect as a Christian, people such as… (insert nee people I find)”. That’ll be me so keep an eye out
He's a node in the re-Christianization podcast network run by Sam Hyde or BAP or George Soros. But the thing is, he might not realize it. Which means he's sound, I like him. Not at first but after a few poddiez. That's how you know someone's going to stick, when you have a visceral negative reaction at first that flips into a series of positive ones.
Had a visceral negative reaction to Christopher Hitchens at first but for different reasons to be fair.
>>18104774I watched him a lot last year and enjoyed some of his coverage but the people he’s associating with makes me think this is all it is.
>>18104774Not sure about this. He's 26 tops, he'll not fit into the same opinion glove forever. + if he studied theology/religion, even if he approached it all through Hitchens glasses at first, all of that thinking will be lodged into him and nostalgically some day. That will color things oddly for him probably.
>>18105042Yeah. You will find the that most of his subscribers are insecure christians. And you will find the atheistic retards subscribed to GMO sceptic.
>>18106465"""Hitchens""" had that effect on many folks, regardless of how pithy he could be at time. The weirdest part is that his gentile 1/2 brother, Peter, is a born-again Christian and does the lecture/shill circuit too, but he's mostly just very bri'ish and boring, while Hitch at least had a few good zingers from time to time, despite being a sloopy drunk for the rest.
