Here, studentofthemarkets had a question whether Christians were crazy.
In the video, the man admits he believes strange things "as sure as I am of my own existence".
This is at or near the root of the problem.
If you believe in your own existence, as a man, you'll believe most anything else that is impossible, because it is impossible that you, as a man/woman/child can exist.
This is because the existence of Chist is a total monopoly. Nothing else can exist. Existence itself is an exclusive attribute of Christ ("I am life"). Thus, you can see how the "Christian" is stealing the prime attribute that belongs to Christ, and substituting his own "life" instead. This is a very dangerous game to play.
That said, violations of the laws of man's world should serve to cause doubt about the so called reality of man and his environs.
For example , if Jesus can hang on a cross without feeling pain, perhaps we can start doubting a world filled with pain is even real. Another example, if a dead man can walk out of a tomb three days after being slain, we can start to doubt the veracity of a world in which death is the law.
We can use the phenomenon of dreams to analyse this logic . Many strange violations of the laws of nature happen in dreams. If we are alert to the strangeness of the phenomenon, we might become semi-awake. This is called lucid dreaming when you know you are dreaming and yet are still asleep. And yet, the strangest of strange violations of laws (the status quo) happens all the time and does not waken us if we are in deep sleep. We just accept the strangeness as OK.
Similarly this Christian is deep asleep and will remain deep asleep so long as he continues to insist upon an unshakable belief in his own existence. All kinds of strange violations of normal order (talking donkeys) can happen but his mind will just make up some justification for it.
It is only upon waking that we realize just how strange was the phenomena and how unjustified were our carefully crafted reasons for believing them were . Only upon waking will we realize just how strange and impossible it is for man to exist, and that we never were men/women/children at any time.
If man could exist or would represent a serious violation of the law of Good. It is the acceptance of ones non-existence that it is understood how the law of Good cannot be, nor ever has been broken.
It is only those who believe they exist who also believe the laws of Good can be broken, and have been broken. It is this breaking that seems to prove ones existence apart from Good/Christ.
This (ability to exist) explains why Christians keep insisting laws have been broken and are excited when the laws of nature can be broken (like a floating as head). It also explaines why Christians insist Good is interested in punishment. Punishment implies laws have been broken . If laws can be broken then man can exist. Thus, it has really ones existence that is the main motivator of Christian thought.
So are Christians crazy? Anyone who thinks man can/does exist is crazy like a sleeping person who accepts the strangest of phenomenon as normal.
