"Christians are so happy while atheists are so sad."
What a way to live.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

Ministry claims Jesus turned up in person at conference wearing crowns and healed people
Making the claim in a Facebook post titled “King Jesus Appeared with Crowns!!” David Vaka, a regional minister, pastor and leadership speaker known for his work in Australia, claims Jesus showed up “in person” during a conference held at New Life Church in Australia, but did not provide any evidence to support such a claim.
“God did something beyond words last night,” the ministry revealed on Sunday.
“Not only did He give the Rhema Word, but the King of Glory Himself turned up in person. He appeared with a massive crown and steadily moved across the room, crowning people with kingly authority and power.”
The ministry claims, “people encountered the tangible presence of the King. He was healing, delivering, aligning, and setting people free while crowning them with glory.”
“I have seen angels appear and minister to people on many occasions, but this was the first time I have seen the King of Kings, the King of Glory, descend with such power as He did last night,” Vaka declared through his ministry while explaining that he believes Jesus appeared because “He is serious about building the Sunshine Coast into a Kingdom City.”
Vaka did not respond to a request for comment from The Christian Post on Tuesday. Rory O'Donnell, a critic of the claim, asked the ministry on Facebook if there was any video available of Jesus’ appearance at the conference.
ROAR Leaders Summit replied: “Next time, turn up in the meeting and see for yourself. It’s much better than photos!!”
According to the Ankerberg Theological Research Institute in Chattanooga, Tennessee, the Bible lists only 12 personal appearances of Jesus on Earth post-resurrection. This includes a post-ascension interaction with the Apostle Paul on the road to Damascus. The Apostle Paul only saw a bright light and heard a voice.

Exorcist reveals terrifying encounter that 'proved' to him the devil was real
Father Carlos Martins, a Catholic priest born in Canada, has performed exorcisms around the world and now describes signs of the devil's work, including incidents of psychological manipulation more terrifying than physical proof of demons.
'Normally, a demon hides its name, and if you wear them down enough and he concedes to give you a name, 99 times out of 100 it's not his real name. He gives you something fake,' Martins said.
However, the priest noted that this same demon continued to appear throughout his life, including while he watched his first exorcism as a seminarian.
Martins said that the devil watches people because he needs to know what makes them tick.
'It’s so he knows how to present a really tantalizing temptation to you. So if it's redheads, you like, he's got the perfect redhead. If it's money, if it's power, if it's an opportunity, he will offer those.'
The priest said exorcisms have taught him that the devil and demonic spirits concoct a plan that maximizes the temptation for those they try to seduce.
Martins had been an atheist as a young man, but converted to Christianity in the mid 1990s and eventually heard the call to the priesthood years later.
After finding religion, the priest said it became clear to him that 'the truth of reality was contained within the Christian understanding of the cosmos.'
'It just became obvious that the devil is real, and when I encountered the devil for the first time, none of that was a surprise.'
Martins said that in his earliest exorcisms, he would see chairs and even people levitating and believed it was another attempt by the devil to intimidate humanity and, in particular, young and inexperienced priests.
'Why would you see levitation earlier in your career as an exorcist than later? Well, because the devil is doing that to try to intimidate you, to try to get you to walk away, and to think, "This is just just too crazy. This is too weird. It's too scary."'

My favorite part: if it's redheads, you like, he's got the perfect redhead. If it's money, if it's power, if it's an opportunity, he will offer those. — LoL, what is wrong with the redheads? Or with money and power? Doesn't he know that his boss in the Vatican has a lot of those?

Tucker Carlson and Dr. Stephen De Young (an Eastern Orthodox priest and biblical scholar) did two hours on the Nephilim and how they are demon hybrids who secretly run the government and society.
We learn that when Nephilims died in the flood, their physical bodies were killed, but their spirits didn't go to the regular realm of the dead. Instead, their disembodied souls became what we now call "demons" or "unclean spirits." Therefore, when the text mentions demons possessing people in the New Testament or modern times, it is literally referring to the ghost-like spirits of those dead pre-flood giants trying to inhabit human bodies again because they crave a physical form. And they now posses the bodies of the global elite.
We also learn that major human technological leaps—both ancient and modern—are actually "knowledge given before its time" by malevolent spiritual beings. Therefore modern technological progress is not a product of human scientific achievement, but a continuous, invisible spiritual warfare meant to manipulate the human mind and steer society toward yield to demonic influence.
