Why The Failure One's Worldview Doesn't Turn Unbelievers Into Believers
Pointing out why the failure of one's worldview doesn't drive a person to their knees in an existential crisis or to conversion. The internal explanation of Christianity accounts for the reasons why that's the case, but this process is still a helpful tool in presenting the Gospel to others.
The thing about humanity is that if we can imagine the worst thing we could do, we can usually accomplish it. With that being the case, can any transgression be forgiven? Mass slaughter, genocide, another example that YouTube would flag? Who is more powerful - God or man?

The claim of Christianity just isn't irrational is touted out as a hand wave to be easily dismissed. Most of the time, the initial interaction with Christianity is just that one doesn't like it. But think about something like string theory and explain to someone that 222 dimensions are possible. Are they scoffing because they have a point or because it's been unexamined?
TIMELINE:
00:00 - The Irrationality Of Thinking Christianity Is Irrational
00:31 - Christianity Is Not Illogical
01:11 - Christianity Is Not Unscientific
