Do you think we still come from apes after seeing this? Come back in about 28 minutes and let me know. It is a tad lengthy, so watch it when you have the uninterrupted time. If it is truly just EVIDENCE that you are seeking to believe in God, then I believe it will help you realize that you are really agnostic vs. an absolute God-denying atheist! Enjoy...

No, I didn't expect to get any "conversions" right off- actually, I got what I pretty much expected, but had hoped that, at least a few would watch it with an open mind and not ridicule it before even watching it! I won't even dignify all of the other hateful remarks. Lord, forgive for they know not what they do! One day EVERY knee will bow, and EVERY tongue will confess that He IS God! (Isaiah 45:23) At least, when I leave this sad, wicked world, I'll know I told you all so!! And if this video speaks TRUTH into just one lost soul who sees it, then I know God has received His glory and it wasn't a waste of my time! You all remain in my prayers, like it or not! ;) Blessings...

ok, i've just clicked on the the link and i've seen these guys before, i thought they were full of excrement. i'll watch your video because i do enjoy watching things about religion but don't hold out much hope for a conversion if this is anything like their other stuff.
ok, i watched it and i'm still waiting for this evidence of god they like to tempt us with. having evidence against evolution (although i doubt this patronising piece of crap qualifies) does not prove the existence of god, and neither do the following:
asking everyday people on the street to suddenly recall all the information they learned about it in school and making them look stupid because they don't know all the answers
asking airline workers really inappropriate questions when they're at work.
playing up to women by quoting darwin and making out you're all feminists (i dont think the bible reads too well for women either but you say we should take heed of that particular piece of mysoginistic nonsense)
apes misbehaving in a restaurant
and various other things that i can't recall right now.
the guy who said 'the problem we have is the beginning' was held up as an example supporting the god view, i hope he sues these people for using his honesty in such a twisted way. at least scientists accept that they don't know everything. not knowing how something happens does not mean that god did it. and if these guys are so bothered about a tricky beginning, how do they explain the origin of god? did god do that too?
the plane analogy was the stupidest thing i've ever heard and doesn't even work as an analogy because we have evidence of long falls causing death or at least a couple of booboos (duh!). so good luck with that one. i think if you try doing what they did to that chinese guy, in most cases you'd get punched. gotta give that kid credit for his extreme patience and tolerance but i was so hoping he'd smack the guy.

Those who wish to discount evolution frequently use such tactics. Yet nowhere in evolution does it say "humans evolved from apes." What it DOES say is that humans and apes have a common ancestor which is a whole 'nuther ball of wax.
All the life in this world serves as an example of evolution in some way. Yet humans are somehow magically and were formed from dirt with magic wind blown into the contruct.
Puh-leaze.

I never believed that we came from apes to begin with so the point is moot. Besides, evolution isn't about whether or not god exists. Next thing I know, believers are going to try to push geocentrism.

Christianity needs to be able to stand on its own merits independent of the validity of evolution and it simply cannot.
I haven't seen the video, but I have a strong suspicion that the scientific method gets largely ignored. I will watch as I need a good laugh thank you
We dont need affirmation of our beliefs, that is what christians need. We are simply saying nothing in christianity is proven simply becuase it is not

If you think one video is going to get me to change my beliefs you are wrong.
Aside from which, I don't watch that Way of the Master garbage.. at least put up something from a qualified theologian instead of a burnt out half-baked actor.

I have seen this video before. I am still an absolute Atheist. There is no credible proof for a god in this thing.

The Way of the Master is two media savvy idiots lying to people. Congratulations. You fell for their feeble lies.

There is no evidence that your 30 min video could present to me that could change my views.

You believe in invisible flying creatures, zombies and halos and wings. You are mentally unstable.

I've never thought we came from apes.
You shot yourself in the foot right at the start there buddy.
