GodTube?....

Postby Danderson » Thu May 31, 2007 3:52 pm

Anyone heard of Godtube?....

It's baisically like Youtube, but, as you can probably guess, it is a video hosting web site that will hopefully spread the message of the gospel....

And though it's in the beta stages right now, there is already a lot of activity there...

Here's the link: http://www.godtube.com

I wish them all the luck in the world, though I would bet it's gonna be a troll magnet.

That's why there should be a youtube like site that requires admin acceptance to post a vid...

The videos on that site are exactly the kind of videos atheists use to call Christians ignorant. I as well wish them luck, but I thought the site was full of ridiculously stupid videos and I won't waste my time there.

Oi, the banana is an atheists' nightmare...I get headaches from remembering that.

(Feh. This site raised huge controversy on another Christian forum I'm on. Most of them agreed with Nate.)

(Me, I never bothered. I don't see what'd they have that'd interest me... I wouldn't mind if it was high quality stuff with Christian messages, but most of this stuff comes off as just sterilizing secular videos. At least of what I've seen.)

(Of course, it's a bit moot now, since both YouTube and GodTube are useless to me, as my laptop doesn't have a sound card.)

Just by the name of it, I don't think it'll go very far.

That banana atheist video was really.. really... really... stupid. There's no logical bearing in that whatsoever.

OH! My digital camera has five buttons! But wait, it also has the battery opening case where my thumb touches! That means God made us to use Canon Powershot S400s!

Makes no sense.

I kind of wish someone would get an original idea and be organized/ran by christians or something but allowed non-Christian activity as well as long as it wasn't offensive or whatever. Just it seems the thing for Christians to copy something successful and make it Christian. Christian myspace (forgot what its called), GodTube... etc. Why not using myspace or Youtube and putting content on it thats christian rather than making your own site just for your stuff which is really just gonna bring vultures.

It is a nice idea I guess but, I don't think its gonna work, and the trolls are enough to keep me away. I would like to just quality Christian stuff coming up on Youtube or something where its actually reaching out to people and standing out in a bunch of garbage rather than putting it on a site that only christians and anti Christians are ever gonna visit, filled with half-baked crappy christian video garbage.

I would like to see a trend started by a christian group, ran by christians where the secular crowd would be trying to copy them instead of us always copying whatever is popular at the time.

Oh I just watched the banana thing -_- I had never seen that before. Wow... that was bad. I can't believe they actually went on air with that. I guess we were not meant to eat a coconut?

(Scarecrow, are you thinking of the BattleCry thing Acquire the Fire put out? I'm pretty sure that was meant to be a Christian Myspace of sorts.)

Lots of very hateful videos that play into the generally negative stereotype of christians. I don't wish this site well at all.

The "Lifehouse 'Everything' skit" is really good, though. It's the only thing I've seen on the site, but it is an amazing drama. Some of the college students performed it last Tuesday at our Bible study/worship service.
"Therefore we do not lose heart. Though outwardly we are wasting away, yet inwardly we are being renewed day by day. For our light and momentary troubles are achieving for us an eternal glory that far outweighs them all. So we fix our eyes not on what is seen, but on what is unseen. For what is seen is temporary, but what is unseen is eternal." 2 Corinthians 4:16-18

"Since the creation of the Internet, the Earth's rotation has been fueled, primarily, by the collective spinning of English teachers in their graves."

[color="DeepSkyBlue"]Yeah I saw that vid too Sheenar. I thought it was awesome. I've only used that site to look for worship vids and stuff so I can't form a good opinion on it yet. But the stuff I've seen on there is pretty good. [/color]
