This has been reposted recently on the channel, but I believe it dates back possibly a few years? So some of the information might be out of date (people's views change ect...) both sides brought out some very good points.

My personal views: I agree with Eric's view on the "Flat Earth" topic. I like the way he compares others aspects of life and the world to his view (there is a consistency in nature that cannot be denied). People are entitled to their views, but it's not an issue for me. The shape of the earth doesn't determine my faith in God. It is what it is. The Bible claims the earth is a "sphere", so that's good enough for me. Whatever may have been put forth as a deception will eventually be revealed. In the meantime, it's mostly a distraction. Good on Eric calling this guy out about referring to Catholics as Christians. I don't believe the Bible condones genocide, as this guy stated. God judges people on an individual basis. Slavery exists because Satan took control over the world, not because God approves of it. God provided strict laws on how slaves should be cared for, along with arrangements for their release on a regular basis. Headship arrangement for the family unit is scriptural, however humans ruling over other humans as kings/presidents on a national/global level is divisive and destructive.

Referring to Eric's arguments as fallacies was poor taste. Eric was way more civil than this guy was and was right to exit when he did. Another thing I disagree with is labeling people and calling them names as this other guy did with Eric. That's pointless and serves no purpose. Eric was the better person here. This other guy probably was/is an agent. Most likely a Freemason.

imo, eric comes out clearly as a new ager and bible denier, and he denies jesus too. so for me it is a big thumb down. basically he is a satanist (notice the black pentagram he is wearing and there is another one on the wall behind him - super obvious).

By Pentagram, are you referring to the Dallas Cowboys star logo? Maybe he likes the Cowboys and isn't concerned about the imagery? I wouldn't jump to such quick conclusions without knowing someone first. Definitely into some new age stuff, which is concerning. Hey, everyone is free to believe whatever they wish. He clearly is doing some "soul-searching" in his quest for the truth/answers...haven't we all been there at some point? Perhaps as a researcher he wants to understand the background of things? I don't believe in drawing conclusions about people without actually knowing them. That's called labeling, which I am strongly opposed to. Eric has a good spirit about him, which has drawn me to listen to what he has to say. And he also has a good grasp on things going on in the world. New age stuff aside, he seems to be a rare person of integrity to me. I prefer to view such people as lost souls rather than condemning them. It's about saving lives, remember? How many people did Jesus expel the demons out of? Lots. He saw them as victims of such bullies. He loved people regardless of their background. I have prayed for Eric to be woken up to the dangers of the spiritism he is interested in. God see the heart of people, it's not our place to judge. Eric is a very smart young man. "Christianity" has done a great job of turning people AWAY from God, Christ, and the Bible with it's bloody track record. Satan's design all along. A lot of people are being led astray. All we can do is pray for them, lead by example, and be there for them when they are ready to learn. I don't believe in giving up on people, ever. Sometimes we have to walk away for a time. But never give up hope.

i expect you think and say publicly all these positive things about veritas__aequitas then also?

[–][deleted] 1 insightful - 1 fun1 insightful - 0 fun2 insightful - 1 fun -  (1 child)

No, I don't know anything about veritas_aequitas and do not follow. I am not in a position to say anything about this person. I have been watching Eric's videos for some time. Eric is open, transparent which I respect.
