- Have Sodom and Gomorrah been found by Ron Wyatt? Is there actually evidence of the Biblical story of Sodom and Gomorrah? A thorough breakdown of the claims of Ron Wyatt, analyzed scientifically shows that his location for Sodom and Gomorrah, below Masada, are actually naturally occurring marl formations. This is Ron Wyatt debunked. The unprofessional amateur archaeologist and treasure hunter Ron Wyatt is exposed as a pseudoarchaeologist.

They try to "sciencify" their beliefs by using terms like "thermal ionization" without bothering to learn what it means.
What is there more ridiculous than stupid people using a mix of "big words", they don't know the meaning of, to sound smarter and professional?
And then other scientifically illiterate channels pick it up because it sounds sciency and repeat Ron's claims verbatim without actually looking into what it means/entails or if it's even possible.
@@HolyKoolaid That's what media do with everything.
@@HolyKoolaid That’s what the Karen “researchers” do on Facebook, and well... a lot of people on Facebook, sadly.
@@HelloHamburger
It's sadly not isolated to Facebook either..
Thermal ionization is how noah built the ark out of unobtainium
He was the first to use Alden’s theory
asshole Noah couldn't at least save a couple of Na'vi
I would be careful who you say this to, kent hovind might pick this up as new theory, he could make a still scene and put it into his "ark" next to the dinosaurs and humans living together exhibit.
@Adrian Goodvoice well I read about a recent strike of up Upsidaisium on Mt Flatten
@@markdwolf3198 haha Kent Hovind is a pretty good punch line
Even the people who run "Answers in Genesis" Called Wyatt's claims "Fraudulent"
And that's a very low bar. I mean, the group actively lying about a young earth science, I mean, that's rock bottom.
Oh man, if AIG won't buy your horse pucky, then you are a really poor salesman, indeed.

That's just because there is no money it for them. You've got to remember with any of these groups it is all about bilking the sheep for all they're worth.
I remember reading Ron Wyatt as a kid and being completely convinced we knew where Noah's Ark was in Turkey. Like to the point I thought everyone just *knew* that it was there
Me too. And the chariot wheels in the Red Sea.
The Bible stories are so unreal.
@@HolyKoolaid One of the Sunday School teachers at my church told us that they've found chariot wheels in the Red Sea and I grew up believing it
@Azrael Schrodinger Konstantinopel!!!
The supposed “Noah’s Ark Remains” that he found could’ve been the remains of an alien vessel, for all we know.
Ron Wyatt is an absolute genius! Imagine being able to find SO many items that nobody else has been able to do, despite having, you know, degrees and knowledge and stuff.
His audience loves to be fooled. It makes them feel better.
Ron Wyatt even knows the proper, ancient pronunciation of ZAGGAROTT.
Hey get off Ron's back--among his many finds, he found me a wife...that's the time he said he found Eve...

Thank you so much for your content, my wife has transitioned into a Christian nationalist in just four years and your videos give me a better understanding of her beliefs. 40 years of my life and I've never had religion pushed on me, until my wife got radicalized.
So sorry, good luck ! Maybe someday she'll watch this channel too. I'm trying to keep my father from falling in the volcano of BS but it's like playing wack o mol trying to keep up with all of the lies conservative news including religious generate. I've been asking my dad questions that he can't answer that make him acknowledge reality and it kind of works for a while but then he goes back to conservative news and it starts all over again. It makes me so angry and sad that this is how he is choosing to spend his last years. And our family is mixed. I think it's criminal what Fox News and others now have done to so many families in this country. It's a cancer.
My condolences. The same thing happened to my father. But he’s been at it for over 20 years. Before that, he was a smart guy. Loved everyone. Damn Fox News!
Wow, I feel sorry for you! How horrible
Welp... That's a thing. I have no idea what to say except hopefully one day she will recover and come back to you.
That sucks. I'm sorry about that.
As a christian I would admit, that the concept of God not existing is very frightening to me. But as a person, who is interested in science and tries to get a better understanding about this world, I would admit that I like this channel and I am subscriber.
Why would God not existing be “frightening”? 🤨
Congratulations! It's a step. Just keep following honesty and good academia the fears will work themselves out little by little. I admit even though I never looked back when I left the church I still catch myself caring about some christian concept, it's deep rooted so it can take time.
Just be a Deist, believe in a god without believing all the BS in the Bible
Believe or don't just keep that skeptical mind open but protected against falsity and keep searching for the truth. Best of wishes in your search my friend. I used to be a Christian as well but my search has lead me to being an Agnostic Atheist. Dealing with the problems you may find in your own beliefs can be very hard or as you said "frightening". The truth doesn't need to be feared though, the only thing which needs fear to survive is falsity.
@@ajclements4627 By frightening I meant from philosophical perspective. One of the basis of christianity or any other religion is the concept of life after death. So you can imagine for a religious person that this could be frightening. Why? There is no God, and a person just dies, and then there is nothing. That's what I meant.
The same Ron Wyatt who claimed to have found the Ark of the Covenant, Jesus Crucifixion site, and Noah's Ark Ron Wyatt? Ron Wyatt didn't even have a degree in archeology and claimed he was given permission to dig, when in fact, he was not given permission to do so.
That's why he only brought a bible and no shovel. Who needs tools when you're doing god's work?
@@RyanDanielG
Funny
Yep. One and the same.
@@RyanDanielG You would think the almighty woul simply zap him down a whol team of angels with magically shovels and trowels or better yet just unzap all that "ash" with the proverbial snap of the fingers.

I love when religious people try to tell me that Noahs ark or the site of Jesus' cruxifiction has been found. It's always laughably wrong. Like, J. M. Pendleton finding live pterosaurs level wrong.

Ron Wyatt sees rocks" i guess this could be Sodom and Gomorrah."
Sees “the Rock” and thinks of sodomy and Gonorrhea.

Are we sure Lot didn't make a deal with the god who killed her so he could get more father/daughter time in the cave?

Smoking will do that to a person.
Ron Wyatt also found chariots in the Red Sea.
Strange how when actual scientists look they don’t find anything, yet when Ronald looks they’re suddenly around.
@lati long Good point, as well.
Ron's son was there when he dumped the wheel into the Red Sea to discover it later
@lati long
The remains of Egyptian chariots *have* been found - in the *Reed* Sea.
Preserved in mud, portions of the vehicles have survived for a few thousand years - unlike the Titanic, which is fully exposed to saltwater currents and metal-destroying microorganisms.
@lati long
No, the chariots weren't made entirely of wood. And yes, wood can be preserved when buried in mud or submerged in fresh or brackish water.
And it was a multinational team of archeologists that found the evidence of a battle in a tidal lagoon. Whoever the Egyptians were chasing, they led the chariots through the lagoon, where the chariots became stuck in the mud. The Egyptians were then peppered with arrows by their quarry.
@lati long
Yes, idiot, by the Hebrews, who were generally archers in the Egyptian military forces of the era, as they were second class citizens in the kingdom.
And the chariots were in pieces, large enough to identify even though they were incomplete.
The marshy lagoon area is a bit west of the Red Sea, in northern Egypt. The Hebrews would've then moved northeast, around the northern tip of the Red Sea and out of Egypt.
And it most certainly wasn't a biblical group that funded the dig, as this evidence points to the bible having exaggerated the story of Moses and the Exodus.
What I like most about the Sodom and Gomorrah story is why they supposedly got distroyed in the first place.
According to the little christian book of fairy tales, it was because the people weren't kind to foreigners, the poor. the elderly, etc. I.e., not liberal enough.
Homosexuality?
@@UniversalMind-10 The bible story makes no mention of punishing anyone for homosexuality. It specifically says that they are being destroyed for not looking after the sick, the poor, the elderly, and foreigners.
@@HatstandTuesday We'll that's what they were doing. According to scriptures that's not good
@@UniversalMind-10 That's the point. Homosexuality isn't mentioned in the scriptures. And before you say that Lot offered the angels to the crowd, and that that was somehow homosexual, remember that angels are asexual.
The beginning of the story specifically states what the people of Sodom and Gomorrah are doing that God dislikes. Homosexuality isn't mentioned.
@@HatstandTuesday Well angels are spiritual beings. Gender does not apply to non biological entities. But nonetheless just like God the Father, the Holy Spirit are referred to masculine pronouns. They also take form of men just as the case of Lot and Sodom & gomorrah.
The men of Sodom wanted the angels who as I said had taken human form. Lot refused and offered his daughters and then threatened to rape Lot if he doesnt't comply. Justification was because he was a foreigner plus the angels in human form. But then again just from that we see homosexual tendencies within the populace. If they were hetero they would have taken Lots offer, but even if that would have happened, the angels would still have blinded them. Since they mission was to save Lot and family. Homosexuality plus other sexual sins, mixed with inhospitality to foreigners(a primary sin/love thy neighbor), pride (another primary sin) and indifference to the needy etc was their downfall.
Sodom and Gomorrah was a paradise full of all sins and had to be destroyed. A good article;
answersingenesis.org/contradictions-in-the-bible/what-was-primary-sin-sodom-gomorrah/
Any time a civilization/settlement/kingdom becomes evil to a point God can't tolerate it any longer He destroys or punishes it directly or indirectly and even ancient Israel was not exempt from this rule. This also applies now in the end times, end of days, where humanities evil and non repentance will reach to a point where God will send a strong delusion so that those who believe the lie will be damned. God the Father will allow the devil to bring the antichrist who is the most evil man, to take power globally and this is done by removing the restrainer, who is the Holy Spirit, who is humanities protective hedge from pure evil. Humanities refusal to repent and accept Jesus as Messiah, refusal to see and acknowledge the Creators prescence and existence and continual need of evidence of Gods or/and Jesus existence despite it being there; creation. So then the antichrist and false prophet will be allowed to take center stage and will mesmerise the masses through their own miracles and wonders. After all humans ask for is proof and evidence, faith is not enough.
NB; Their is an instance of fallen angels procreating with women giving rise to nephilim/ human-angel hybrids. In genesis story of Noah.
I love the scene from Monty Python riding the "horses"
"Kakarrot" made me lose it. Thank you for that little bit of pure joy.
I used to be a HUGE fan of Wyatt when I was a xian... when I started discovering the lies and misinformation after I started deconverting, it was a nail in the coffin for me. Also the Wyatt Museum is south of Nashville, TN... not in Kentucky :-*
Oh snap. Did I say Kentucky? My mistake. Thanks for the correction.
@Frank Clark same here I used to believe Ron Wyatt 😂. It is so unbelievably embarrassing lol
Every time I read the Bible I saw more and more flaws, inconsistencies, outright lies and absolute nonsense. I’d feel sorry for those who believe that rubbish but they are causing too much harm to people and societies and the world to forgive.
It’s frightening that so many people still believe Wyatt’s claims, but then again, not all that surprising, considering that religious fundamentalists are more likely to believe in fake news than any other group of people.
@@DesGardius-me7gf Fundamentalists are least apt to get vaccinated, wear masks abd socially distance too. They keep spreading Covid infecting and killing people and they laughingly call themselves ‘pro life’. Out of all the demographics in the US they are among the worst.
I guess no one has ever been to southern Utah. We got ancient cities all over the place..
It's been confirmed. Atlantis is actually in Southern Utah.
They ignore the actual cities Native Americans built. They can't be bothered to make them up. It has to have something to do with the Bible or it doesn't count as interesting to them.
Southern Utah : funny, as a kid I asked if Monument Valley was a former city site.
(wondering if Andrew Stanton did too)
Atlantis : oooooh bummer.
Santorini seemed so much more plausible.
"It has to have something to do with the Bible or it doesn't count as interesting to them"
Suddenly considering how much of a bore it must be to have one's entire life dedicated to one single book or source.
I guess the devil was hangin' out there and gawd torched those cities, too. What a prick!
Ron Wyatt also found Christ's Foreskin, complete with Smegma still attached, at the back of his fridge. The skin had a distinct "Streaky" appearance, which was due to Christ's transformation from Middle Eastern to White Guy. The Cheesy Smell of the Smegma was undeniable.
Im simultaneously grimacing and laughing 🤣🤣
Is that in addition to the dozen or so "Jesus' foreskin relics" the Catholic church has? After being circumcised that many times, it's no wonder that he supposedly never had sex. :O
@@henrybest4057 Excellent Call. Indeed, weren't Saturn's Rings once thought to be Christ's Foreskin? Nuff said about the abstinence situation...
@@tomsenior7405 Agreed. There can't be much left to say about it...
@@henrybest4057 Catholic beliefs dictate there's quite a few Jesus forskins, with all those transubstantiations going on, one lucky soul gets to eat Jesus forskin every communion.
It took me longer than I care to admit to realize that was Lot's wife in the background, and not a towel.
I was duped by Chariots of the Gods and similar ideas in the 1970's as a teenager. I'm not sure exactly how long it was before I found stories debunking it. I was really pissed and vowed not to get suckered again. Ron Wyatt seems to be just as bad. I would love to see more content analyzing Ron Wyatt. I hate these idiots.
It's good you wised up. There are people still being fooled by that with all the information in the world at their fingertips.
I got duped too. By a report of finding the Red Sea crossing that was super popular at church. I'm embarrassed now that I lapped it up. Super embarrassed because I'm a history nerd. I have learned so much more about history since I put down the Bible (including exactly how inaccurate the Bible is).
I loved reading Chariots of the Gods in school! Even though it turned out not to be true. I still appreciate it for opening my eyes to possibly. Always followed up by actual facts, of course.
With all fairness, ancient aliens shaping human history is far more likely than anything Wyatt promoted.
when i was younger, i believed in all of that stuff, that we'd been visited by aliens, ghosts, even the bible. but as i got older and learned about all of the different gods throughout history, and not just that but the actions and inaction taken by gods, i realized it was all bull.
but reading chariots of the gods really opened my eyes to how stupid teh entire idea of ancient aliens really is. for one it reads like it was written by a junior high student, but there is no actual evidence presented, just like in the tv shows. people with a presupposed idea look at something or even pictures of something, and say, this looks like what i want it to look like. and disregard all other evidence.
I used to be a Christian, until my early adulthood, I struggled through
my teen years, wanting to be more scientific minded yet being to fearful
of eternal damnation, ultimately it took going to war, feeling guilt
and fear over the lives i have taken, the events witnessed etc to
finally get over that fear, I have never been more free or happy than I
am without a/many hypocritical religions telling me I am going to burn
for eternity for daring to enjoy life or make many human mistakes the
very God they espouse created us to do, i could go for hours busting
religion, thanks for what you do, hopefully your words/videos can save
others whom are still too fearful to let go of that everlasting fear. I
do not need a Magical being, and a SHIT God (doing all he does while
also being the creator of sin and destiny) to tell me how to not be a
shit Human. Free yourselves people!
Free yourself from that idiotic brabble that is called believe.
You did it.
Go on the same way further in your life.
You are doing good.
Being Christian is a relationship with God, His Son , and The Holy Spirit.
Don't turn your back to the Alpha and The Omega, just because of someone's behaviour.
So.. Ron Wyatt sees a rock formation, and claims its an ancient city?
Imagine if he had seen dwayne the rock formation johnson, what would he have claimed lmao

@@mwachalaeric2577 don't quit your day job.. 😬Yeesh.
In Junior HS I was given a laminated "degree" that certified I was a "Doctor of Rockology" after going on a class field trip to collect trilobite fossils in limestone. I guess I should also have claimed to have found a biblical city on the strength of my joke degree since that Wyatt dude is about equally qualified.
12:12 I love how my boy just casually sets himself up for a sequel all the time.... But yeah, I'd totally watch that.
Every five years or so someone "discovers Noah's Ark" and Fox News reports on it like it was.......news. Big lulz
Noah's ark has been found SO many times. And every time it's later shown to be some natural formation. Like all those boat-shaped things on the sides of mountains ... that are natural rock formations caused by water erosion (most commonly snow melt).
Yeah, that & the tomb of Jesus. What pisses me off, remembering being in a church that took this stuff seriously-- they will have people come on odd days to watch documentaries & reports on this "biblical find" for weeks, then when it turns out that it was either entirely unrelated to what they thought it was, or fabricated, they suddenly never speak of it again, forgetting to mention as much to their parishioners, leading entire generations of kids to grow up in the church thinking it was real, only to be incredibly confused the next time they've found the thing.
As to Sodom & Gamorrah, I think there was a specific wierd site in the Holy Land which is not man made at all, but has always been thought of by locals as the remnants of the city. It's a stony field near the Dead Sea with odd chemistry, so under the heat of the sun, fires start underground all the time & cause the rocks to explode, carving them into odd shapes which are interpreted as people & houses. That tends to be enough for many Christians to say that's what it is, but not enough for those Creationists still looking for the damned thing, I guess.
Generally speaking, mythologies often tend to refer to real places or spring up around odd places, it's just those of European descent lost all of that from their own cultures, destroyed most of what was related to Native cultures & have little familiarity with the lay of the land in the region all their mythology is from. Personally, I think the Iram story may have mixed with some local Canaanite stories to create Sodom & Gamorrah, as it is in the bible. But, those people are not going to just accept that a piece of common mythology is part of their history book.
Noah's story, I have 2 concerns with. 1st, where did all that water came from? 2nd, where did it all go?
Six locations so far for an ancient vessel that lacked a seamless hull and bilge pumps to stay afloat.
Nope.
@Anne O'Nymous - guess all the people dead from Covid are fake, too?

@Stewart Ross No, the story is folklore, as in it never happened, as in being as real as the story of Hercules or samson and delilah. All fairy tales.

Ex girlfriend of mine while we were dating (around 2014) actually used Ron Wyatt's wagon wheel in the red sea as an attempt convince me that christianity was true. I asked what was more likely, god exists and parted the red sea, or a wagon wheel falls off a boat. She broke up with me like a month later saying that I was too "into science" and shit like that.

ugh, I showed my mom a pretty picture of the salt pillars near the dead sea, and told her: "Yeh, that was the inspiration for the Sodom story." , and my mom was: "But that was probably Sodom and Gomorrah!"
Same thing when I told her why I found the Slow Worm snake interesting. "It's not really that much of a snake, pelvis and shoulder leftovers indicate that the slow worms used to have limbs." , to which my mom was like "Mustve been the snake that tempted Adam and Eve into eating the forbidden fruit, God ordered the serpent to crawl on it's belly, and that's when the slow worm lost it's limbs."
Life hack to stay sane with highly religious people: learn to laugh about them.
Why doesn't anybody recall the fact that Wyatt also found the City of Missing Socks? Thanks to him I could recover three of them.
Hopefully they weren’t clean up ones.
How is there enough room in the back of your washing machine for the sock goblins to build a city? And how did you recover the missing socks after the goblins had eaten them? I can see you're not a true believer in sock goblins, HERETIC!!!

It would be interesting to trace the history of the myths that eventually made it into the bible.
Here are some written thousands of years before the bible
The Sumerians believed the universe consisted of a flat earth surrounded by salt water and covered by the closed dome of heaven. Every part of this cosmos was controlled by one of many divine and immortal deities. The original deity of the dome-shaped heaven was named An, while Ki controlled the earth. An and Ki gave birth to Enlil, who became the leader of the Sumerian pantheon and served as god of the air. Besides Enlil, the second generation of gods included: Inanna, goddess of warfare and female fertility; Nanna, god of the moon; and Ninurta, god of war, agriculture and wind. All of the Sumerian gods looked like humans and ate, drank, married and fought among themselves.
According to the Sumerian story “Enki and Ninmah,” the lesser gods, burdened with the toil of creating the earth, complained to Namma, the primeval mother, about their hard work. She in turn roused her son Enki, the god of wisdom, and urged him to create a substitute to free the gods from their toil. Namma then kneaded some clay, placed it in her womb, and gave birth to the first humans.
Enki whispers to Atrahasis to build an ark and enter it with two of every kind of animal. Atrahasis completes his mission just as the flood begins. The people cry out for help from the gods but no help is offered. Ninhursag weeps for the people and is inconsolable and the other gods also mourn but no one can stop the flood.
Enki wasn’t too pleased when he discovered Enlil planned to wipe out the race he’d created.So he took it upon himself to warn Utnapishtim. He told Utnapishtim to construct an Ark, Utnapishtim was commanded to load the Ark up with animals. Together with his wife, he preserved life on earth when the flood was unleashed.After the waters began to recede, he released the animals to repopulate the planet. As Enlil eventually got over his outrage and granted immortality to Utnapishtim and his wife.

Anyone else getting ads for ‘Family Protection Association’?
Talk about irony. 😆
I'm getting ads for various bible evangelism sites, and a Christian dating site. The latter I find most insulting because I've been happily married for 21 years and I'm an atheist.
Yes.
Ron Wyatt single handedly proved the Bible. Albeit without any archeological training or evidence of his discoveries.

Wow ... That was the very first time I heard someone say "How did this happen? We don't know. God did it!" in a serious manner ...
I always thought this was a simplified version of how they phrase it, which could simply be dumped down to "I dunno. So God did it." ... but no ... he literally said that ... wow ...
Oh, I heard it all the time growing up, especially from Sunday School teachers. It was the go-to cop out when they didn't understand science or history.
@@HolyKoolaid ya, l still live with my parents and when ever l ask them to prove the fact that we are disagreeing on, they just say "God works miricals and works in ways that we'll never understand ." Really well l guess he's worked one some pretty shitty ones in their lives😒😒😅 and my best is how does an all knowing God not know that one of his angels will become Satan, that he with need to purify the world because only 8 people believe in him and also the flud is fucking impossible.
🤷♂️ I dunno…"🤣
Thank you so much for getting part 2 out so quickly! You do fascinating work with your personal insight/ your interviews and research. I wish i could help financially right now but I can't. So I'm sharing your channel with as many ppl as possible. Thank you for all you do.
HK is my favorite content creator, and this week he was referenced by Aron Ra AND Matt Dillahunty. I'm so happy for (what seems to me) the increasing success and reach of this channel. Keep up the quality content, Thomas!
Wow this should be considered a series, i should be paying for this! This is amazing. I've never felt so satisfied watching something in my life.
A thing looks like a thing, so it is a thing, Olive me goil.
So THIS is what my mom was talking about when she insisted sodom was found, and that the rock was so burned it would crumble to the touch.
You and Matt Dillalillith are my favorite atheist TH-camrs. Your videos, in particular, are always well-made and informative.
Ron Wyatt is the king of finding geological formations that vaguely resemble what he's looking for.
Thomas, you have the smoothest voice ever on TH-cam, by far.
Awe! Thanks! ♥️
...2 words...Seth Andrews...
I love how you have so much info in your videos. And how you put so much work into the editing.
"These things don't occur in nature!"
Said a thousand times by every armchair "archeologist" conspiracy nut who ever lived! Usually describing something that regularly occurs in nature.
nature is what Jesus says it is sinner!!!!!
I really commend the effort you put into these videos
'There are the windows... the street lights... traffic lights..'
'Uh... they didn't have street lights and traffic lights back then...'
'Were you there?'
Is this guy also one of the same to claim that Devil's Tower is the stump of an ancient massive tree?
Has there ever been a religious expedition that didn't find what they were looking for? The ark has been found several times.
In my area, you don't need an expedition. There's an ark in EVERY backyard! Geez, how the fuck did I end up living HERE?!?!
3 years later......still ready for the vid
Thank you for your fantastic loving way of challenging propaganda! I’m not an atheist but I question everything and have often done my own research and come to the same conclusions. It sickens me that people just blindly follow such agendas based on pseudo-everything! Thank you again and keep up the good fight!
Ridiculing others is not loving.
I understand why so many people have a need for religion. I just feel sorry for the ones being fooled by profits, rather than prophets.
Woah those rock formations are beautiful!
Yes they are! And it makes me sad that creationists miss so much natural beauty, science, and world history by only focusing on one completely misinformed narrative.
Some real archaeologists did some excavation of an ancient city in Iraq. Local tradition had it that the city was Sodom. Of course it was in the wrong place if you were a biblical archaeologist. However a substantial portion of the city had been destroyed by fire and artefacts left behind in the burned houses suggested that it was a once only fire. Among the ruins were thousands of clay tablets which had records of court cases and judgements. There was no obvious evidence of the city being attacked which would account for the fire but the city was on a large oil and natural gas deposit. The theory is that an earthquake opened fracture which allowed an enormous escape of natural gas from beneath the city and this gas cloud was ignited by lamps and cooking fires instantly destroying much of the city. Now God smiting a city of judges and lawyers with fire and brimstone, (natural gas is often sulphurous) sounds much more appropriate than destroying a city full of homosexuals.
To paraphrase Forest Gump, "Momma always said stupid is as stupid does except when it comes to the Bible. Then it's just stupid."
Finally! I found a well-done video putting this real-life Don Verdean in his place :D
"Nah, you can drink it, it's safe, I assure you this!" (Jim J.)
The fact that someone actually responded to one of those comments in the beginning with “amen” just infuriates me.
"Hello, I study human history and prehistory. Don't mind the dirt under my nails, it's part of the trade."
"So cool that you're an archaeologist!"
"Excuse me? The correct title is 'pareidolist'."
yessss looking forward to the next part
Love the memes... shows you’re a man of culture
I had to dip into the dankest corners of my collection, but there are plenty more to come. 😎
@@HolyKoolaid your proficiency for memery and not taking things too seriously (unless it’s, you know, a serious topic) is why you’re in my top 3 atheist ytbers! Debunking dangerous ideas is all well and good but sometimes you just wanna clown on a clown and not be so serious for a bit
Ron just having a blast of a time with his adventuring friends in the vast land, imagining seeing castles and temples. I bet he brings his wooden sword and cape. I envy them.
*Wyatt apparently found everything in the bible, including 'virgin Mary's' cherry*
Two words that don't go together "biblical" "scholar" and "biblical" historian, because when you are a Faith-based believer you QUESTION nothing. All they do is try to match their apologetics to the story they believe to be True.
Geology banned in schools in America I suppose.
More that poor evangelicals from the south don’t live anywhere near people with the education to disprove this toxic shit. It’s really sad actually.
Finding Sodom and Gommorah is like making up Hogwarts, and finding something that may resemble Hogwarts, and calling it Hogwarts while discounting the fact that Harry Potter is a work of fiction.
It begins with the conclusion that such a thing exists, working upward to fit things into the claim, other than starting with the evidence to end up with the conclusion.
you are childish, pedantic , and uncouth anyone with a brain knows Hogwarts Univerity is in England my friend paid to go to that online school look it up smh Its like Dervry for whitches in other words an excellect school!
It's interesting how wrong some of the things are that pass for common knowledge in religious circles. "They already discovered Noah's ark." is a thing I hear quite often. They really believe it.
Finding a random ruins and then declaring it as Sodom? Isn't that like the episode of Ancient Aliens where a guy was digging some dirt and rocks off a few piles of rock in the Central American jungle, and then the narrator suddenly remarks "Did we find Atlantis?"
Does anyone take this guy Ron seriously? He probably sees manmade structure in every rock formation...
You added Charlie the unicorn. You MAN BEAST!! AHHHHHH!
Am very sure there are similar formations on Mars, Lovely arabic music :)
Wyatt is the Indiana Jones of religious hucksters. I mean, he must be a serious archaeologist, he’s got the hat, the vest, and a serious look on his face !
are you ever gonna do a "Nothing fails like book of mormon history"?
Keep up the good work, effendi. I suffered from religious ignorance until I was 13. After that I began to learn. It was the Bible that cured me - I read it! Crikey! What a crock! At 60 I'm completely free of religious putrification and moral petrification. God is only a prop for those who would do evil.
In other news, I proved heaven exists because I saw a cloud that looks like a dog.
Ron Wyatt, a born again evangelical Christian,
traveled the world
looking through his god glasses for evidence to confirm his beloved Bible stories.
Miraculously, he found the evidence he was looking for in the same places
that had been already investigated and dismissed by everyone else.
"Rose-colored glasses."
oooh, looking forward to Ron Wyatt episode.
Lol!! I got a pureflix ad in the beginning of this video 😂
Absolutely, without a doubt, in every single claim of “god” or evidence of god related items, it comes down to the person who made the claim is being too stupid to understand something. Basically, “I don’t understand it, therefore god”
Same goes for you, "I think I understand it, so not 'God'."
@@jayg3857 Not even close to the same thing. I don't need a god to understand things. You people need a god to MISunderstand things.
@@protoborg You think you don't need 'God' to understand this reality? Then why are you trying to argue his non-existence or otherwise. I understand why Christians argue the existence of 'God' to Atheists, that's because they think they're trying to help. But you, I see no reason why you would argue the non-existence of something you don't need to exist.
@@jayg3857 How exactly am I arguing the "non-existence" of a god? Simply stating that I do not need a god to understand reality is not the same as saying there is no god. Further, what evidence do you have that I need a god to understand reality? It seems to me YOU are the one making an argument here. As such, it is tacit upon you to provide me with proof that god is required for understanding of reality.
FYI, you cannot argue FOR the nonexistence of something. You can only argue AGAINST the existence of it.
@@protoborg You're literally taking 'God' out of the equation because the world told you to. You argue that Science doesn't need a 'God' to be valid. When there is no Scientific consensus on the existence of 'God'. Yet you use words like 'proof' and 'evidence' like that's supposed to automatically make your view right. (It's a view on reality regardless of what you say which you think is just an observation, a passive one at that). Sure you can argue for the non-existence of something. There is no difference in arguing the non-existence and arguing against the existence of it. In fact, by arguing against the existence of it, you are proving it might exist and you are just arguing against its existence. You use the word proof as if it is absolute and you use the word reality like you have control of what reality is. You control YOUR view on reality, you don't control what's really reality. Ask for proof one more time and demons will be sent to possess you in the hundreds.
I cannot believe that i believed all this nonsense, including Ron Wyatt. So gullible. Ugh. Glad that past few weeks after some critical study and thinking I am fast on my way to atheism. And for the past 8 years we have been following old testament laws, including sabbath, the Jewish feasts, eating kosher etc. What a waste of time! Thanks for your videos
