alien_conceptsays...Oh my, this needs a *wtf and why not a wee *promote. Someone's been reading GoT and got himself confused!
siftbotsays...Promoting this video and sending it back into the queue for one more try; last queued Sunday, September 1st, 2013 12:17pm PDT - promote requested by alien_concept.
Adding video to channels (Wtf) - requested by alien_concept.
Draxsays..."..and my book is called, The Monster Manual - First Edition. It seems to be selling like crazy.."
ChaosEnginejokingly says...Dragons? Really? come on, that's just silly.
Talking snakes, OTOH, are totes real and like, definitely existed.
LooiXIVsays...I like how at the end he completely hinges the entire thesis of his book, the contents of bible, and the world of God on the premise that Dragons existed. Well! I wonder how many people believe that Dragons actually existed...
CaptainPlanetsays...He almost had a breakthrough there at the end...
EMPIREsays...It's funny how people can be so oblivious... that comparison in the end.... lol
smoomansays...this video made me FUS DO RAH!!!
EMPIREsays...It's FUS RO DAH!
kir_mokumsays...that was amazing.
lurgeesays...Wrong!
It's FUS RO DAH!
JustSayingsays...So if the bible, god's alleged word, compared Satan to a Leprechaun, we'd be terrified of little irish people now?
direpicklesays...Are we sure this isn't just a guy trolling them? Has anyone been unlazy enough to research him?
bjornenlindasays...Dragons or God which one is real???
Capoeiristasays...It's a real book and he has a documentary as well. He either really believes this stuff or he's content to appear like he believes it in order to make some money. The two are indistinguishable in terms of the harm they cause.

chingalerasays...Got no real problems with the idiot niche, especially when you can sell 'em the most ridiculous shit imaginable. P. T Barnum would have handed this man some VIP tickets to the show....Look at what zombies and vampires have done to garner bank notes for some hard-working geeks, eh?
Christians have a lot of excess cash to spend on crappy books y'know...

dooglesays...Jesus was a dragon slayer? Wow, is there anything that guy can't do?
Sniper007says...That guy on the far left is Eric Hovind. He's the son of Kent Hovind, founder of Creation Science Evangelism. So have fun with that tidbit of info, sifters.
Also, it's easier to understand if you replace the word 'dragon' with the word 'dinosaur'. They are synonyms. ... I take that back. It's not easier to understand. This video is clearly intended for your average Bible believing Christian, who is NOT typically found browsing the Sift.
Dinosaurs / dragons lived with man and were common knowledge 500+ years ago. There are still some alive today in isolated areas. See mokele mbembe. Appologies to what that information does to some world views.
Bucksays...Was that thing the kid rode at the end of The Never Ending Story a dragon? I think yes.
Checkmate Athiests.
Jinxsays...Spawn of Satan = Dragonborn?
shinyblurrysays...The argument is that the mythology of dragons is based on interactions man has had with dinosaurs. There have been many artifacts discovered which show the connection:

JustSayingsays...Just because people in the past painted picture of dinosaurs doesn't mean they interacted with them. By that logic, I would've interacted with them too because I own all Jurassic Park movies on DVD.
People dig holes. They do this since millenia for varying reasons, they're bound to find some bones and other shit from time to time. That's how we got the dragon myth.
PHJFsays...Dragons WERE real. We don't have fossil evidence because dragon bone was a precious resource used to make legendary weapons and armor.
Snohwsays...I thought, "Lol, okay I'll give him a chance", when reading the description.

rex84says...The choice to end on the statement about Satan being compared to a mythical creature made me almost 100% sure that this must be satire.
Shakes head...
aaronfrsays...via Livescience:
"In all, there have been more than two dozen searches for the "living dinosaur" over the years and still evidence for mokele-mbembe remains elusive. There are no photographs or films of the creature, no bones or teeth, no evidence beyond stories and anecdote."
My entire world view has been destroyed by this overwhelming evidence.
There are still some alive today in isolated areas. See mokele mbembe. Appologies to what that information does to some world views.
poolcleanersays...I can't even recount the number of absolutely ignorant videos, conferences, and Sunday "School" classes I've attended that made an absolute mockery of science and evolution in particular.
Thanks mom. Thanks dad. Thanks America. You fucked me and now the rest of the world is here to point fingers and laugh.
Oh and while I'm at it, thanks rest of the world. My views on life have been destroyed, defeated and now I have nothing left but sadness. A job well done indeed on all sides. Dumbed down and defeated.

Hive13says...Spoiler alert: the bible is a man-made creation written by 100's of different people over many centuries with many details confused or lost in the multiple translations. To say it is the word of god or that anything in it is anything other than complete fiction is delusional.
Procrastinatronsays...This guy reminds me of someone I knew back in what I assume must be Sweden's equivalent to High School.
I'd always thought he seemed like a nice, intelligent and well-adjusted guy, and... then I sat down and spoke to him.
To put it mildly, he shattered my expectations of him.
See, apparently, this guy had figured out (through various prophetic texts as well as the Bible) that there was a huge comet hurtling towards Earth, and that it would surely eradicate all life on the planet if we failed to stop it. Luckily, my (absolutely fucking bat-shit crazy) buddy had it all figured out.
He had three plans; either we simply send up four rockets with a great big rubber net suspended between them, or we pile everybody into Russia and cause the Earth to roll out of orbit, or we take a bunch of atoms, squish them all together, and create a kick-ass and completely impenetrable force field. Obviously, I asked him how the atoms were going to be kept together - after all, atoms are notoriously unwilling to cuddle - and for a moment, this gave him pause. He simply sat there with a frown, looking down at the table between us. Then, his face suddenly lit up with self-congratulatory smugness and, with one arched eyebrow and supreme confidence, he proudly uttered two words:
"Computer chips!"
We didn't really talk much after that.
chingalerasays...^^That's the kinna juice that turns into full-blown schizophrenia later.....
xxovercastxxsays...It's been demonstrated that he can't stand in place for 6 hours without dying.
Jesus was a dragon slayer? Wow, is there anything that guy can't do?
