Mohammad claims being a Prophet by claiming Jesus as the previous prophet. . without Christianity you have no Islam. Islam is just Christianity with Arab pagan twist.
"in those days Israel had no king: everyone did as they saw fit." Hmmm...Didn't god get upset that the ppl of Israel wanted a king in the first place like the other nations instead of it just being him as ruler?
That has to be one of the most ducked up and immoral stories I have ever heard. If I read the Bible without having ever encountered Christianity, I would by default assume God is the villain.
To be fair, the stated moral of the story is that people do wicked things without the leadership of a king. It's supposed to be outrageous and immoral. And to make a story stand out as particularly immoral among the sea of awful shit in Judges, the authors had to really go all out. That said, God did instruct the Israelites to continue to battle for two more days. That doesn't make a lot of sense in context.
That’s why after finishing the Bible recently, I’ve started on the Qur’an/Koran. I’m curious to know if God in that book gives off a megalomaniacal villain vibe too or not
I remember reading these kinds of stories in school. It screwed with my head so hard that the teacher (and most of the rest of the class) took such different conclusions from it than me. Take the story about Abraham and Isaac. Until the end, I was like "stupid Abraham. God obviously wants to test if this guy is a psycho murderer. Way to fail the easiest test in the world. What a monster." And then the teacher is like "Abraham proved his overwhelming LOYALTY". Yes, loyalty to some voice that popped up in his head one day and said he's the true boss man, and that he wants Abe to murder his own son, because... reasons. I had a personal crisis because I could not reconciliate my thinking with what I was told.
Sercil my friend, the same thing happened to me. I was five years old and my mom had a doctor's appointment. In the waiting room was a "children's" book about Abraham sacrificing his son. I was 5 years old and a voice in my head said, "this is wrong-what's wrong with these people?"
I read the bible three times. The third time I read it looking at god as the evil one and satan as the one who is trying to make humanity see god as the sadistic fascist dictator he is. This way the story works for about 98% (waaaay more than the other way around) and actually becomes pretty good.
TheKyrix82 yeah, the story of Lucifer supposedly becoming jealous of God’s power could in actuality be God thinking “you’re just jealous” as Lucifer is actually rising up to a tyrant.
RadioTSM {Operator Teddy Timis} I can definitely see that, although the thing about the Bible is that everything seems very black and white in it. What I mean by that is everything involving God is supposed to be all that is good, and everything involving Satan is supposed to be evil. However, it’s also constantly stated about how Satan is an extremely skillful manipulator and liar. So, what if The Bible is proof of those traits of Satan, and those that follow it are actually his children?
@@FragmentedR_YT Actually, when I read the Bible, the 'all powerful, all knowing, all good' traits were never assigned to god. That's something the church fanfic'd in later. And since nobody reads the Bible, they don't know any better.
TheKyrix82 that’s kind of true, and when there are various claims of his greatness in the Bible, they always come from normal people that are praising him, such as the Psalms, rather than him saying that all about himself.

Its one thing to believe this, but its another thing to act on it. Such beliefs are not worth defending. This is the 21st century, and while people are welcomed to hold the beliefs that this happened, what I won't tolerate is them thinking its okay to act on them.

@Incognitive Distortion Imagine being the father that in panic throws out his daughters to be raped to save his own skin. Even if it was done in panic (which I heavily doubt because of the way it is written) it is still unjustified and immoral.
@Incognitive Distortion I simply gave my opinion on Genesis 19:8 www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis+19%3A8&version=NIV The one that darkmatter referred to in that memory of Jeffery at 2:04
@Incognitive Distortion I can get behind this being shown to kids that have already read the source material and believe it in order to show them how ridiculous it is. It would be best if they didn't read the source material in the first place. If they come across it without knowing anything about the source material it would be inappropriate. Also parents encourage and sometimes force kids to read the bible, believe it and remember what is written in it. Unlike this video. 5:16 Also happened according to. www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Judges+19%3A25-26&version=NIV

Thank you for addressing this story. When I was going through my phase about 10 years ago of trying to be a Christian (though I'm told adults can't have phases, lol), I was working on reading the entire Bible, and came across this story. It made me so mad, and so confused! It began changing the way I viewed God and the Bible. I've been raped more than once, and to see that God condoned, and even encouraged this, made me do upset! My immediate thought was, how could a god that is supposed to be loving, approve of this? This went against everything that I was told he was supposed to be. Sadly, when ever I've brought this story up to anybody, they not only do not know of it, most also attempt to justify it. There is no way to justify this. It is sick. Period. Before my phase, I believed in God because that's how I was raised, but otherwise, I questioned his existence, and wanted nothing to do with religion. This story was a major turning point in my life. I had already began serious questioning for other reasons, and finding this only added to those questions, and changed my perception of the god that I was being strongly encouraged to follow. Not entirely because of this story, but in part due to it, I'm now an atheist. And it really means more than you know that you addressed it. Thank you so much. I also laughed at hard at the bull horn parts of the story, and the goat. Loved it.

I'm a big Mortal Kombat fan. I remember when the game first came out in the early 90s, and many Christians were trying to get it banned for being too violent. How ironic that their own book makes Mortal Kombat look tame by comparison.
When i read that story i wondered: Does that count as a sequel, a remake, or just as a cheap fanfiction? PS: I´ve just re-read it to confirm. The text doesn´t explicitly say that the concubine died because of the rape, she just didn´t move when he asked her to get up. So its quite possible HE killed her when he cut her into pieces. Usually i wouldn´t read it that way, but its the bible, it wouldn´t be the worst atrocity that book condones.
Well, the merchandise (the woman) was already very screwed (quite literally), so what better way to take advantage of the situation than to chop her into little bits.
I think with Judges 20:4-5 it probably clarifies that she was killed by the rapists. "The husband of the woman who was slain..." - could have easily mentioned that the husband slay her at that point, rather than saying "was slain''. And then in 5 - "And the men of Gibeah rose against me ... and my concubine have they forced, that she is dead." I'm going with "that she is" implying causality there. Kind of, I rode my horse for so long, that he was tired. Either way, it's completely messed up, and just another example of a bible story that make absolutely no sense in retrospect whatsoever.
Ive been watching your channel for years and years. I think this video is by far one of your greatest masterpieces. Thank you and everyone involved for all the amazing videos you put out!
Ya, it's absolutely disgusting. I absolutely despise that damn POS book that I believed in for most of my life. Revolting! Pisses me the f off I ever bowed to that thing etc..
I never heard these stories in Sunday school that’s for sure. This Channel has taught me so many stories that they won’t bring up in church because they’re too graphic. Which kinda says something about the Bible honestly.
See, this is why I love this channel. Not only is it comedically entertaining, it's educational. In 12 years of catholic school with going to mass twice a week, they never once told this story. Your video is the first time I've ever heard of this story. It seems they glossed over it as they were filling our heads with stories of Noah's Ark with the giraffes poking their necks through holes in the roof as a rainbow circled overhead. You know...fluff shit to hide the atrocities.
Give them this to read... It's about how God saying to bake cake with human poop. Ezekiel 4:12 And thou shalt eat it as barley cakes, and thou shalt bake it with dung ( shit/poop) that cometh out of man, in their sight.
I remember reading this as a kid and I can tell you that my expectations were slightly subverted when the woman was chopped up by her former companion after dying from injuries suffered from the gang rape. Just slightly because similar things have happened, but the amount of time 10 year old me spent thinking about how he decided which parts to butcher her body into was... too much. Everything else was actually pretty par for the course, so I just read through it, no surprise. And I'd say the biggest surprise pre-New Testament was definitely Song of Songs/Solomon. Whole lotta talk about sex and no one dies an excruciating death and informed me that Solomon was a boob man. Ecclesiastes also gave me my first existential crisis.
THIS is the story that officially made me stop believing in the bible. I was trying to read it from start to finish and up until this point, I had already been having trouble finding justifications for a lot of the fuck shit I was reading in there. I was trying with all my might to hold on to my “faith”. But when I read this….. I was done. I could no longer defend or justify a god that would go through all this trouble to kill people and rape women. It made absolutely NO sense and I gave up trying to believe any of it. I walked away and left that mess where it lay. That was in 2010 and I’ve had not one regret since.
Regardless of your religious affiliation, I believe we can all agree that if the Bible were to get a scene-to-scene adaptation, it would definitely be NC-17
It absolutely boggles my mind that some people learn these stories and not only believe them, but JUSTIFY the immoral anarchy of bullshit to the bone! Also, love your content bro! It's always a joy when you upload a new vid! Keep up the good stuff man \m/!!!
The worst thing is, we don't actually know she was dead when she was cut up. She had managed to walk all the way to do the door where she lay down. She did not answer her man, but that didn't mean she was dead.
And also even worse is we don’t even know if the men that raped and beat her all night were even captured and killed. Which means God nearly instigated the extinction of the tribe of Benjamin for nothing and literally had the tribes kill all the men and non virgin women of jabesh gilead and those men could be among the Benjamin men that received virgin women as wives as compensation for their wrongdoing which means the entire thing was literally pointless and no real punishment was actually given.
have you ever considered depicting jeffrey as an ophanim-style angel instead of a cherub-style angel? just imagine what your scripts would look like *[an incomprehensible being of wings and wheels and eyes all on fire floats up to God and lets out an ear-splitting screech]* "DAMMIT JEFFREY, ALWAYS WITH THE PROBLEMS!"
Brilliant work, Darkmatter! Your animation exposes all the absurdness of ancient ideas of justice. Oh, and their obsession with sex. I can only hope that at least some of the modern societies got a tiny bit better.
educating, thank you for the knowledge! haha ngl the voice acting at 2:36, I gotta respect the art in there. but we gotta be respectful still tho, tho I get it.
So the writer of Judges ran out of ideas and decided to copy paste an old story. These ancient dudes were doing it before Disney was.
If I remember correctly, there is a verse that states that there is nothing new under the sun.
Actually according to scholarship Genesis was written after Judges (which is part of the Deuteronomistic History), so it's the other way around.
It is prob more likely that the two stories arose from a single story that floated around orally and, over time became 2 or more versions which were then compiled into a single story at some point. I would say the second story was prob compiled by a different group who had never read the first one.

"in those days Israel had no king: everyone did as they saw fit." Hmmm...Didn't god get upset that the ppl of Israel wanted a king in the first place like the other nations instead of it just being him as ruler?
He did get upset, but he eventually settled for letting Israel have a puppet king whose only real authority is to do what God tells him.
“Reboots”, “Prequels”, “Originals” and “Subverting expectations”? Methinks Darkmatter may be a Star Wars fan.
He certainly is if you watched his little animation on Exodus. :D

Don't forget "It's like poetry, it rhymes."
"The Prequels were Lackluster" statement really proves this so bad, it´s exactly what happened with Star Wars.
Yousuh might be on to somethin'
That has to be one of the most ducked up and immoral stories I have ever heard. If I read the Bible without having ever encountered Christianity, I would by default assume God is the villain.
Try telling that to brainwashed sheep who follow blindly
To be fair, the stated moral of the story is that people do wicked things without the leadership of a king. It's supposed to be outrageous and immoral. And to make a story stand out as particularly immoral among the sea of awful shit in Judges, the authors had to really go all out.
That said, God did instruct the Israelites to continue to battle for two more days. That doesn't make a lot of sense in context.
Quick! Someone make a JRPG about this.
That’s why after finishing the Bible recently, I’ve started on the Qur’an/Koran. I’m curious to know if God in that book gives off a megalomaniacal villain vibe too or not
Christians are often better than their fucked up fairytales.

Some may not think too hard about it themselves...or... at all
I remember reading these kinds of stories in school.
It screwed with my head so hard that the teacher (and most of the rest of the class) took such different conclusions from it than me. Take the story about Abraham and Isaac. Until the end, I was like "stupid Abraham. God obviously wants to test if this guy is a psycho murderer. Way to fail the easiest test in the world. What a monster."
And then the teacher is like "Abraham proved his overwhelming LOYALTY". Yes, loyalty to some voice that popped up in his head one day and said he's the true boss man, and that he wants Abe to murder his own son, because... reasons.
I had a personal crisis because I could not reconciliate my thinking with what I was told.
Sercil my friend, the same thing happened to me. I was five years old and my mom had a doctor's appointment. In the waiting room was a "children's" book about Abraham sacrificing his son. I was 5 years old and a voice in my head said, "this is wrong-what's wrong with these people?"
This is absolutely insane. i had to look it up because I couldn't believe it was real.
But is it real?
@@memeco50 Ya, just type in the passages he displays on the screen as he is talking about them into your search bar.

Tristun Alekzander holy fuck dude.
Me too, and I'm glad I looked it up right before the dismemberment part or I would have definitely looked it up then because _WHAT??_
I read the bible three times. The third time I read it looking at god as the evil one and satan as the one who is trying to make humanity see god as the sadistic fascist dictator he is. This way the story works for about 98% (waaaay more than the other way around) and actually becomes pretty good.
You should have seen the last time I suggested to a christian that, according to thr Bible, Satan was the ally of mankind
TheKyrix82 yeah, the story of Lucifer supposedly becoming jealous of God’s power could in actuality be God thinking “you’re just jealous” as Lucifer is actually rising up to a tyrant.
RadioTSM {Operator Teddy Timis} I can definitely see that, although the thing about the Bible is that everything seems very black and white in it. What I mean by that is everything involving God is supposed to be all that is good, and everything involving Satan is supposed to be evil. However, it’s also constantly stated about how Satan is an extremely skillful manipulator and liar. So, what if The Bible is proof of those traits of Satan, and those that follow it are actually his children?
@@FragmentedR_YT Actually, when I read the Bible, the 'all powerful, all knowing, all good' traits were never assigned to god. That's something the church fanfic'd in later. And since nobody reads the Bible, they don't know any better.
TheKyrix82 that’s kind of true, and when there are various claims of his greatness in the Bible, they always come from normal people that are praising him, such as the Psalms, rather than him saying that all about himself.
And some people call this the "Good Book".

Unbelievable that some force and others encourage kids to read this stuff.
I love the cute little picture books they give to kindergarten kids depicting the Noah's Ark story that don't show the millions of bloated corpses that would have been floating in the waters after God drowned the entire population of the Earth except for Noah and his family.
Michael Coville it’s always blue water too but I would imagine it being like muddy brown from all the dirt and decomposing human and animal bodies.

Corpses would be everywhere.
@Incognitive Distortion Imagine being the father that in panic throws out his daughters to be raped to save his own skin. Even if it was done in panic (which I heavily doubt because of the way it is written) it is still unjustified and immoral.
@Incognitive Distortion I simply gave my opinion on Genesis 19:8
www.biblegateway.com/passage/?search=Genesis+19%3A8&version=NIV
The one that darkmatter referred to in that memory of Jeffery at 2:04
@Incognitive Distortion I can get behind this being shown to kids that have already read the source material and believe it in order to show them how ridiculous it is. It would be best if they didn't read the source material in the first place.
If they come across it without knowing anything about the source material it would be inappropriate.
Also parents encourage and sometimes force kids to read the bible, believe it and remember what is written in it. Unlike this video.

Those [women] whose nushuz you fear, admonish them, and abandon them in bed, and strike them. If they obey you, do not pursue a strategy against them

Thank you for addressing this story.
When I was going through my phase about 10 years ago of trying to be a Christian (though I'm told adults can't have phases, lol), I was working on reading the entire Bible, and came across this story. It made me so mad, and so confused! It began changing the way I viewed God and the Bible. I've been raped more than once, and to see that God condoned, and even encouraged this, made me do upset! My immediate thought was, how could a god that is supposed to be loving, approve of this? This went against everything that I was told he was supposed to be.
Sadly, when ever I've brought this story up to anybody, they not only do not know of it, most also attempt to justify it. There is no way to justify this. It is sick. Period.
Before my phase, I believed in God because that's how I was raised, but otherwise, I questioned his existence, and wanted nothing to do with religion. This story was a major turning point in my life. I had already began serious questioning for other reasons, and finding this only added to those questions, and changed my perception of the god that I was being strongly encouraged to follow.
Not entirely because of this story, but in part due to it, I'm now an atheist. And it really means more than you know that you addressed it. Thank you so much.
I also laughed at hard at the bull horn parts of the story, and the goat. Loved it.

I feel like this is an allegory for the Star Wars Franchise and it's current state of writing.
It´s that Bible reboot count that leads to this.
When i read that story i wondered:
Does that count as a sequel, a remake, or just as a cheap fanfiction?
PS: I´ve just re-read it to confirm. The text doesn´t explicitly say that the concubine died because of the rape, she just didn´t move when he asked her to get up. So its quite possible HE killed her when he cut her into pieces.
Usually i wouldn´t read it that way, but its the bible, it wouldn´t be the worst atrocity that book condones.
Well, the merchandise (the woman) was already very screwed (quite literally), so what better way to take advantage of the situation than to chop her into little bits.
I think with Judges 20:4-5 it probably clarifies that she was killed by the rapists. "The husband of the woman who was slain..." - could have easily mentioned that the husband slay her at that point, rather than saying "was slain''. And then in 5 - "And the men of Gibeah rose against me ... and my concubine have they forced, that she is dead." I'm going with "that she is" implying causality there. Kind of, I rode my horse for so long, that he was tired.
Either way, it's completely messed up, and just another example of a bible story that make absolutely no sense in retrospect whatsoever.

I remember reading this as a kid and I can tell you that my expectations were slightly subverted when the woman was chopped up by her former companion after dying from injuries suffered from the gang rape. Just slightly because similar things have happened, but the amount of time 10 year old me spent thinking about how he decided which parts to butcher her body into was... too much. Everything else was actually pretty par for the course, so I just read through it, no surprise.
And I'd say the biggest surprise pre-New Testament was definitely Song of Songs/Solomon. Whole lotta talk about sex and no one dies an excruciating death and informed me that Solomon was a boob man. Ecclesiastes also gave me my first existential crisis.

THIS is the story that officially made me stop believing in the bible. I was trying to read it from start to finish and up until this point, I had already been having trouble finding justifications for a lot of the fuck shit I was reading in there. I was trying with all my might to hold on to my “faith”. But when I read this….. I was done. I could no longer defend or justify a god that would go through all this trouble to kill people and rape women. It made absolutely NO sense and I gave up trying to believe any of it. I walked away and left that mess where it lay. That was in 2010 and I’ve had not one regret since.

Also, love your content bro! It's always a joy when you upload a new vid! Keep up the good stuff man \m/!!!
The worst thing is, we don't actually know she was dead when she was cut up. She had managed to walk all the way to do the door where she lay down. She did not answer her man, but that didn't mean she was dead.
And also even worse is we don’t even know if the men that raped and beat her all night were even captured and killed. Which means God nearly instigated the extinction of the tribe of Benjamin for nothing and literally had the tribes kill all the men and non virgin women of jabesh gilead and those men could be among the Benjamin men that received virgin women as wives as compensation for their wrongdoing which means the entire thing was literally pointless and no real punishment was actually given.
No matter how much I learn about the Bible, it continues to shock me
This is literally the Bible story that made me question my faith and become an apostate
