  2. The people who tried to get you to convert for 2000 years are the ones supporting you now over the evil Hamas. They're not the ones who are now completely morally lost. And they didn't fail—many Jews are still recognising that Jesus is the Messiah, and He is the best hope for the world.

  3.  hedonismbot3274  "At least they don't think they are the chosen ones to safe the world." Who? Atheists? What do you think all the wokeness is about? "Atheism is no religion tho." a) That depends on which definition of 'religion' you're using. b) I said atheistic ones (religions), i.e. an adjective, not the noun. Just like you wouldn't say that theism is a religion, but a category of religions. c) There are atheistic religions, such as Confucianism, Marxism, Scientology, Zen Buddhism, and Secular Humanism. The founding documents of that last one described it as a 'secular religion'. d) The U.S. Supreme Court has decided that atheism is a religion. "I just don't like whenever people talk about their importance or superiority. Especially with religion." And yet Christianity has been very important for the world, Western Civilisation in particular. It founded public hospitals, many charities, the university system, universal education, and modern science, and it twice abolished slavery, it spread democracy, it gave people freedoms and human rights, and it raised the status of women. "Guess what islam thinks :)" You're not right just because you claim to be right or think you're right. But then claiming to be right or thinking you're right doesn't mean that you're not right either. It's the evidence that counts, not the claims/thoughts.

  4.  hedonismbot3274  "you are not right. Meaning you are wrong. Because i say so." Thank you for pointing that out. "I am the chosen one." Yeah, I think I've seen you mentioned in the Bible: "For many will come in my name, saying, ‘I am the Christ,’ and they will lead many astray." "I just think it is delusional to think you are a chosen group of people that is all." Is it delusional if it's true? "... they have lost any grip on reality and want to force others to accept theirs. Oh... just like religions did through the centuries." All religions? Evidence for that being the case with Christianity, please. "And i certainly won't argue with mr. Wordsalad about definitions over youtube." Yes, arguing with multiple dictionaries is probably a futile task. I'm glad that you concede. "...what does it have to do with the current situation..." You insulted religions in this discussion, both overtly and by lumping them all except your own in together, but apparently can't back your claims with facts. Typical of a troll.

  5.  hedonismbot3274  "I am exactly right about what I said about Islam and it is crazy how you reacted to it" I didn't see you say anything about Islam in particular, and I didn't react to anything you said about Islam. I would probably agree with you on Islam. "My comments get deleted. So I quit here." Normally they get hidden, not deleted, although deletion happens too. I can only see this and the previous one I replied to by following the links from the reply notifications. "The other chosen ones. As it has always been. Delusional." You presumably conclude that they are delusional because you believe that claim is wrong. And, depending on who you are talking about, perhaps they are. But what if the claim is right? Surely that would mean that they are not delusional? "And the good religions did doesn't make all the wars undone..." Fair enough, when you unreasonably lump them in together. But given that 93 percent of wars were not caused by religion (according to the three-volume Encyclopedia of Wars ), and more than half of the other seven percent by just one (non-Christian) religion, and given that scholars have documented an enormous amount of good done by a Christian or Judeo-Christian worldview, that is not a fair comment at all. But then I've not found most atheists to be particularly well educated about such things.
