  • Unmasking the Dangers of Anti-Intellectualism
    11/21/23

    Unmasking the Dangers of Anti-Intellectualism

    This video discusses the intellectual disconnect within the Christian community when engaging in profound biblical education.

    Often, Christians are perceived as uninterested in intellectual pursuits relating to the Bible. Christians find completion in attending a worship service or attending a prayer meeting on Wednesday nights. There is no pursuit of the intellectual side of learning the Bible. Some also believe that science is the enemy of Christianity, but in this video, we discuss why science does more to prove the Bible than anything else.

    While we acknowledge that not all Christians share this passive outlook, we aim to initiate a conversation that encourages self-reflection. Our intention is not to generalize or criticize but rather to inspire curiosity and appreciation for intellectual engagement within religious contexts.

    Join us as we challenge preconceived notions and invite a nuanced understanding of Christians' relationship with biblical scholarship. This video aims to bridge the gaps between faith and intellectual pursuits, fostering a more accurate approach to studying and interpreting scripture.
