These Christian Beliefs Make ZERO sense

What does Christianity look like to an atheist? Have you ever stopped to consider how strange mainstream Christian doctrine actually sound to outsiders? If someone described transubstantiation, the Trinity, or original sin to you cold for the very first time as an adult, would any of it survive thirty seconds of honest scrutiny? And why do beliefs that would get you laughed out of any other room get a free pass the moment a pastor says them on Sunday morning? I spent 24 years of my life believing everything in the Bible was literally true. I defended it, preached it, and I understand exactly why it all feels perfectly normal from the inside. But in this video, I wanted to re-examine my former beliefs as someone who's been an atheist now for over a decade. I'm focusing on seven of the strangest core doctrines in mainstream Christianity and putting them under a microscope. We'll go straight to the Bible and hone in on the actual teachings of the church itself. And no, these aren't fringe ideas from some backwoods sect. I'm sticking to core doctrines taught right now by mainstream churches and treated as a serious basis for legislation, education policy, and the governance of the most powerful nation on Earth. -- Watch next: The 8 Weirdest Stories in the Bible: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0sv7rvUeCNU If you enjoyed this video, please consider supporting my work: Make a per-video pledge: https://patreon.com/holykoolaid Make a monthly pledge: https://subscribestar.com/holykoolaid Make a one-time donation: https://www.paypal.com/donate/?hosted_button_id=W29AS5WEHJQYW Or join my channel here on YouTube to get access to special members-only perks: https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCzvoUDoDu-cKIb11rg4ODDQ/join Join my newsletter: http://www.holykoolaid.com/newsletter/ -- Get Holy Koolaid Merchandise: https://shop.holykoolaid.com/ + Connect with me: https://linktr.ee/holykoolaid SUBSCRIBE + Please Subscribe to my channel: https://goo.gl/ie3EZh Thank you so much for your ongoing support.
