Haha I sure hope so! It's definitely time consuming but, it's very rewarding to see the finished video come to life and to be able to entertain people 🔥☦
Recently watching through ATLA again. Watching lots of videos around is and discovered you. As a Protestant Christian with a love for stories, fiction and philosophy I have found myself musing and thinking alot about these stories in the life of a Christian. Today I found you as I’ve found myself mired in all this. I see many similar interests as well, as I’m picking up keenly on your usage of Halo music. Subbing to your channel and really enjoying your perspectives. Especially from a Christian point of view. God Bless.
This was a beautiful and very well done video. Three of the most brilliant shows of this generation showing such contrasting yet complementary and profound depictions of one concept. This was my first time seeing that AOT scene since release and first time hearing the dub... and holy crap, that line "we gotta get the children out of that forest" genuinely made me cry, such a poignant statement it makes you realise there really is nothing as important in this world than ending those cycles of generational violence. I'm not too big on the ol' Christianity myself and was initially stightly jarred by the ending since i wasn't expecting it, but as another commenter said it didn't come off as preachy and offered an interesting perspective that I normally wouldn't hear. Thanks for the video, hope your channel grows dude!
I'm humbled you think the video was so well done haha. I try to present my own perspective without beating people over the head with it. Unless I'm trying to be overtly more critical and have fun with it like my Mass Effect critique lol
What a great look at three different examples of forgiveness (and the lack thereof). You give a multitude of wise statements about wisdom by using your examples to make your point! It is really good what you are doing here! Keep it up! I'll say again, you do a great job of analyzing these shows with a Christian perspective and best of all without getting preachy about it! The Christian message you are giving flows naturally into your greater video essay.
I'm very glad that you enjoy my videos! And that you think I do weave my belief of Christianity into the video as well. I may get delayed and go through it, but I don't plan to stop making videos any time soon haha
forgiveness is not about reconciliation. i wouldn't expect someone who has been abused or raped to become all buddy-buddy with the one who ruined their life, but it's important to not let resentment and hatred take over.
Indeed. People often conflate the two. Nothing about forgiveness means we have to be someone's friend haha. But it does mean we have to let go of our resentment and hatred
With video essays of this level of quality, it'll only be a matter of time before more attention comes to you. A morbidly beautiful subject matter, made with some great insight.
“If a man insults me, kills my father, my mother, my brother, and then gouges out my eye, as a Christian it is my duty to forgive him. We who are pious Christians ought to love our enemies and forgive them. We ought to offer them food and drink, and entreat God for their souls. And then we should say: ‘My God, I beseech Thee to forgive me, as I have forgiven my enemies.’” + St. Kosmas Aitolos (sorry, I'm Orthodox and just felt compelled to paste a relevant moving quote for this powerful video from the far eastern society with big seeds of the truth, so to speak)
Beautiful quote! This is what the Church teaches, and it is difficult, but beautiful. "When a handful of sand is thrown into the ocean, is it not completely and utterly swallowed up by the abyss and depth of the ocean? Then do not think that any sin is too much for God to forgive." I cannot remember the saint who said this, but it has stuck with me ☦
@@tsarnicholasiiiofthegreatr5578 I love St. Isaac but you might be confusing it, I've seen this quote attributed to St. Kosmas Aitolos many times. He certainly would write something similar, the radical simplicity is beautiful.
@@tsarnicholasiiiofthegreatr5578 Hm interesting, I wonder how they confused it then... St. Kosmas is usually known more for apparent prophecy stuff. It is unfortunate at times we don't know what quote belongs to who or what is verified.
I actually think thats a pretty terrible way to think about forgiveness. Others absolutely deserve forgiveness its something you do for them not for yourself. Regardless of the toll of revenge forgiveness is often not only are harder to do but usually has detrimental life consequences (like forgiving someone for stealing making you worse off by a loaf of bread. Just an example). If your only doing it for yourself then it only matters how difficult that revenge is to achieve whether you should pursue it or not.
Did you use some of the same words in the one about Aang forgiving Ozai when you were talking about Katara? Cause I swear I either heard that from you or from the cycle of violence video by someone else
Are any religion or anything they teach you my peg and guards teach me that revenge and secret of my enemy would be like me pouring a bottle of rap poison drinking it down and expecting them to die it's just like The last airbender said when you actually go into vengeance you are poisoning yourself henceforth you are not just destroying your enemy but your enemy is destroying you your enemy always Win
My religion tells me that what I put out in the world I get back and what I get back I put out yes I can use curses and black magic and all of that but at the end I am no better than my enemy I am no better than my phone and at the end of the day I will get back what I will receive there is a reason why when you You become a Gray magic minister you always recite I will weep what I will sew😊
This channel will be monetized after this video is fully released wow what a beautiful work of art great job man keep going

I really like this video and your thoughts!! Topic is really important
Also, fantastic editing and storytelling!
Your channel is really coming along, man. Keep it up!

I'm very glad you think so!!
This is a beautiful video, my brother in Christ.
Thank you.
Thank the algorithms for the recommendation
The way you used 3 of my favourites shows makes this video a masterpiece

If I remember correctly that was Isaac, Bishop of Nineveh, canonized as Saint Isaac the Syrian

Insightful as always, keep it up!🙂
Wake up babe an Orthodox brother who makes killer video essays made another one
“Forgive others, not because they deserve forgiveness but because you deserve peace”
- Some instagram quote idk

I didn't intentionally try to repeat myself, if I did do that haha. It's entirely possible someone has already made very similar points to myself 😅
I swear I heard word for word, I might check to make sure I didn't dream it up@@Bornstellar731
