and she's got a hitch slap more devastating then hitch ever dreamed of .i remember hearing and watching the inner rumblings of Francesca when she got herself on a tour in Jerusalem with the biblical tour guide [sprouting her tourist party line ].she was just about ready to explode .she's very confident in her opinions. you'd need more than band aids if you knocked heads with her . but you have to love her .she's adorable . but i think she'd have trouble being a good wifey and having breakfast on time . i doubt whether her gifting would extend into that area of human activity
What a breath of fresh air she is I'm a non believer who also loves the stories of the Bible she speaks for me and my love of the stories represented back through time. 💯🙌
Love her. It is interesting how we have had many versions of the Bible throughout history. King James, New World, Catholic, etc. Even Christians don't agree on it.
When you say, "did Jesus exist?", it's sort of a loaded question. This is why there is always a slight hesitation before scholars or atheist answer this. Did Jesus as the New Testament gospels describe him? NO! Did a teacher exist that these myths likely formed around? Yeah, probably.
There probably was a guy named Jesus who pissed off the Romans for some reason and who may have been executed by them. But that is all. Anything beyond that as described in the New Testament is mythology, i.e. just some bullshit people made up.
If there was a Jesus he wouldn't be coming back in a Mercedes and playing golf on weekends. He would be coming back riding a simple bicycle and would distance himself from all political affiliation and he wouldn't be a climate- change denier.

The evidence for an actual historical Jesus is very thin.
They're in love with the Jesus story they were told as children. Some are able to grow up out of their children hood, while some stay within the fairytales they hold so dear.
She's lying.2 Samuel 22 New International Version David’s Song of Praise 22 David sang to the Lord the words of this song when the Lord delivered him from the hand of all his enemies and from the hand of Saul. 2
@BristleHiffyn WOW. Know why I grew out of the 'Tooth fairytales, Santa Clause, Bed bugs... fairytales? I grew up and educated myself. If the bible is not true. Reading from it, does not validate it. What's your outside of bible sources... get back with me when you do. 😉
Hey Google: how many denominations of Christianity? 45,000 worldwide. How confident does each denomination believe that their version of Christianity is the true correct one and that the others are incorrect? 45,000. And That number doesn't include what they think of all the rest of the world religions.
Fully agree. The bible is oral tradition put to word and since there were no sources, stories that had grown to absurd over the many generations suddenly became ‘true’.
Dawkins isnt rude. Imagine a 6 year old trying to tell adults 2+2=19. Its not, and there is no evidence for the belief that it is 19. This is what Dawkins is doing, telling people with infantile, unfounded beliefs, that there is no reason to believe what you believe
Seneca the younger; “Religion is regarded by the poor as true, the wise as false, and by the rulers as useful”. Nulli Dii, non renges, non domini ! No Gods, no kings, no lords! ❤
The Bible is the written thoughts of Hebrews living on the Sinai Peninsula in the Bronze Age. The collection describes their god beliefs, their rituals, and their relationships with their neighbors.
She is correct. Find out who was Apollonius of Tanya was. Find out about the Druids Sun God Hesus. King Constantine romanized the H to a J. They were part of his most western empire. His most eastern empire worshiped the Sun God Christna. In 325, he summoned the Council of Nicaea to combine the both to create a new persona.
not just dif writers at dif times but a lot of editing was done to. They say there re just 4 styles of writing in it. One has no original writing ascribed to it but the vast majority of the editing is done in this style. It is called the P or priest style in that it is a highly educated one as compared to the other three. Many think that this editing was doner in Babylon or shortly after the return b/c of many of the words used appear in this style do so for the first time as they were not in the langue 1000 yr before or even 200. I really wish i could remember more but I read the book on this over 40 yr ago and it is gone at age 76. Ya I fined i cant remember a lot of things i could just a few yr ago. I really does suck getting old and dont let anyone tell u otherwise. Got another 10 yr at least if not 20 or 30 as my family is long lived. I have some cousin who are in their 90's and going strong a great aunt who missed 100 by 2 mo. My Da made it to 92 and Ma to 96..
I’d like to hear and see more of this very interesting and intelligent professor. Particularly in conversation with someone in a more serious environment. I felt that the presenter was lightweight, jokey and was too conscious of not wanting people to be offended by what she had to say. Better to be interviewed by someone near to her intellectual level than a guy with an almost mocking and incredulous approach.
Jerome a first gen convert was the one who decided if a book got into the NT. He got this job from his childhood and life long friend the man who was pope at the time. U see they had made a pact that some day one of them would be pope and he would appoint the other to decide what of the 100's of writings of the time about the dead god. They were not poor monks as the caths like to make them out. in point of fact they both came form rich Roman patricians and both being 1st sons had the family money and lands. Ya I have done a lot on this subject and on all belief systems. U could call me an armature authority (I will never call myself an expert at anything for there is not such thing only authorities.
Eden I’ve heard was the old name for bush ppl .. pre Hebrew .. the Eden ppl.. & if not for the gospels & Christ would you or most ppl even be reading the Bible or would it simply be the Jewish book of practices passed down & be on the shelf like any other old cultural book, obviously it be another history religious text book… there wouldn’t even be Christianity without gospels .. isn’t it … The most important Bible event atm is podcast likes , what else to talk about.. politics ?
Ahmoses - the black Egyptian pharaoh - did exist. Moses - white Semitic leader with horns - did not exist 0:55 we don’t know what is fact and fiction today either😂 look at Russia and the lies that are happening there
I think Jonah did exist and here is why. Rest is BS! I think he was being chased and came around a corner of a beach and there was a dead whale and he found a way inside. The people chasing him came around later and said DAMN that stinky.... keep going!!! He crawled out later and survived.
I love how Francesca's critics always poo-poo superstitious trivialities. "My entire life is based on a fairytale? How dare you!" Supersttition is a financial boon, especially in wartime. Life is great until you reelect an orange baboon that you know has never been potty-trained. Let's send an army of drafted CPAs to the frontline this time.
Since the time of writing , collections have been written right up to present day for any amount of reasons, for the most part a sense of identity … rules & practices …all cultures have, includes ancient rock art … If however all books were as scrutinised as the Bible for factual content how much percentage of the content would pass the pub test… nothing to prove, if ppl believe like anything else & happy then let them, most think… get over it
Why did they even bothered to write the Bible in the first place? What was in it for the writers? No one ever answered that question. Harry Potter was written to tell an adventure story and make money. Were the Bible stories written to make money?
David predicted Jesus crucifixion 1000 years before it took place in psalm 22:16-18. The first crucifixion took place 400 years after David described it.
Get out of your fantasy....and give up your superstition ...This is not evidence... no more than Proof that Harry Potter is real...Or The wizard of OZ...Because their books say so....
"Moses didnt exist." Right there she discounts her credibility as a scholar. There is categorically no way in which it can be proven that something does not exist, particularly the farther back in the past you go. She also casts doubt on her credibility by stating on the one hand that Biblical writers had a different idea of things, and then stating that they all had "daddy issues", a clear projection of modern psychology onto people who lived three millennia and a world separated from us today. But she is a babe, so I get her popularity.
Enjoy your fantasy and fear of women....No one has the burden of proving a negative the burden of proof is on you to prove the existence of outrageous claims... As in my claiming that I have the largest and best Unicorn Ranch and Training facility in the world .But it is in a secret location to protect it...And it YOU can't PROVE thee I am lying ....It Has To Be True!
Even Israeli archaeologists agree that there likely wasn’t a Moses. The Exodus has been archaeologically disproven also. You CAN assert something did not exist if all the evidence to prove its existence has been debunked. The Canaanites and the Hebrews were the same people with zero evidence of ever being in, and thus leaving, Egypt. As far as the “daddy issues” comment; just because they are ancient peoples does not mean they couldn’t have issues that still plague people today. There is evidence of schizophrenia and epilepsy in the writings of the time. One can certainly find evidence of other conditions based on the contents of the historical writings. The comment about her being “a babe,” effectively trying to dismiss her scholarship in a misogynistic manner, is a reflection on you, and your inability to concoct an argument beyond incredulity. Come back to challenge her arguments once you have studied this field as she has- or when you become “a babe.”
Fulfilled prophesies are evidence of the truth of the Bible if you are really searching for the truth. Jesus said he was the way,the truth, and the life in John 14:6
Fulfilled prophecy like when Jesus (whose name was supposed to be Emmanuel per prophecy) said he would return within the lifetime of his followers? If anyone should be able to follow through with a prophecy, it should be the main character. Your doomsday cult has failed out of the gate. As far as other prophecy, it’s pretty easy to write prophecy after something occurs.
What a brilliant professor! She's witty and honest and to the point.

Straight to the point, love her approach the all the questions. 👏👏👌
A huge like to this one. Truthful and direct. A rare look at a bible scholar that is not religious.
Jupitar Star found a star!
Bible and Quoran is the best fairytale stories of mankind.
I personally perfer Lord of the Rings over those fairytales.
without a doubt. all from the mid east. they didnt even know there was a rest of the world
All religious text whether it is Judaism, Christian, Islam, Hindu, Buddhism etc are all made up fairytales.
Why did you skip the Torah?
So much fiction involved in these ancient books. Incredible as to how much is still believed these days.

To control people and gain power.
