Needing help refuting this...
I recently saw this lengthy comment on youtube from this one guy who was claiming that the Bible is nothing more than a plagiarism of the ancient sumerian clay tablets that predate the bible by a millenia. And that It is nothing more than a blueprint for the zionists to take over the world with usery. He also claims that Yahweh is an evil demonic usurper that demands human sacrifice and animal sacrifice. He's not our true loving creator, rather he masquerades as our God and has got us all fighting and killing each other over his false doctrines. Christianity, Judaism, Islam, Catholicism and even satanism. And that it's all Yahwehs's way of getting us to be at war while they the zionists take over. Is there any evidence to back up this claim and if so what is it? Thank you for your time.

Ignore it, move on, and stop reading YouTube comments.
You'll drive yourself insane with that garbage.

What Rick said. And let me give you a nice Latin phrase that I want you to memorize: quod gratis asseritur, gratis negatur. Google it. Live by it, especially in your Christian life. Apply it to yourself, and apply it to youtube atheist fools. Serious people don't take those kinds of ridiculous assertions seriously.
In the meantime, it sounds like you would benefit from understanding the historical origins of Christianity on something more than a church service level. Start doing some research on the historical evidence for the resurrection of Jesus Christ. Read William Lane Craig, Mike Licona, N. T. Wright, Pinchas Lapide, Gary Habermas (I should have listed him first), etc. If you've never read anything on the subject, start with Lee Strobel's classic The Case for Christ and then move on to Michael Wilkins' and J. P. Moreland's Jesus Under Fire. You do that, and you won't take those kinds of comments seriously, either. You'll see them exactly the way those of us do who have actually studied the matter: juvenile rantings from uninteresting trolls.

And that, brothers and sisters, is the kind of foolishness you get people who insist on denying biblical theism. A good illustration of any as the length people will go to avoid acknowledging basic truths.Proinsias wrote:I don't think you are hearing me. Preference for ice cream is a moral issue

Zionism, Jewish nationalist movement that has had as its goal the creation and support of a Jewish national state in Palestine, the ancient homeland of the Jews . Search Google to confirm for yourself.
Now, that written, it's taken a long time for the Jewish nation to re-establish itself in Israel, where since that re-establishment they have had all to do just to remain there. How does this equate to "taking over the world"?
Seriously Cubeus19, testing those claims made against scripture would easily allow you to dismiss this foolishness.
If you think you can get this person to change their mind, it will not happen. John 14:6 Jesus saith unto him, I am the way, the truth, and the life: no man cometh unto the Father, but by me.
Look up Proverbs 3:5-6, Isaiah 55:9, 1 Corinthians 2:14 and 3:19.
Cheers Cubeus19!
