The Sunday school teacher is out. Good thing a substitute is available: Satan!
SATAN’S GUIDE TO THE BIBLE is an animated documentary. Join Satan as he shares Bible secrets, secrets the students’ pastor learned at Christian seminary but is afraid to share. Thankfully, Satan’s not afraid of losing his job.
There are some GREAT arguments to be made against Christianity/Judaism/Islam (+ offshoots like Mormonism, etc.) - unfortunately this video uses none of them. I actually find it really odd that they used such good production technicals, yet seemed to ignore the content?
I mean, the story of Joseph is one of the most famous biblical stories of all time, so to claim that little children do not understand that Canaan is where the ancient Israelites came from before they went INTO Egypt, long before they later (were said to have) came OUT from it, is what is known as a “straw-man” argument at worst, or at best is extremely trivial, b/c little children don’t tend to know much of anything, really?
Yes, biblical scholars have known that little tidbit for thousands of years, before there even was a b-i-b-l-e, and yes some of the less well educated children today might not know about some minor facet even of a major story like the exodus. Both statements are true… and yet so what?
