The Screwed Generation youtube channel a few years ago had some really well done videos on this subject.
Not sure if they're still up.
He quit doing videos years ago.

"One of the saddest lessons of history is this: If we've been bamboozled long enough, we tend to reject any evidence of the bamboozle. We're no
longer interested in finding out the truth. The bamboozle has captured us. It's simply too painful to acknowledge, even to ourselves, that we've been taken. Once you give a charlatan power over you, you almost never get it
back.

😂Carl Sagan said something he has experience with...he oughta know about what it means to "bamboozle" and "capture" and have "charlatan power" over people, haha! He and his sci-fi cronies have more followers and groupies for their "evolution" myths (with absolutely no witnesses to anything they make up for their "once upon a time" bedtime stories) than the GB/FDS does for 1914!🤣
(There's a lot of money up for grabs if you're into publishing in the field of "$cience"🤑)
(Maggots and eagles have no teeth but they eat meat.
Hippos have big teeth but they eat grass.
Evidence of teeth evolving? Nope. Carl Sagan wasn't there for any of it. He just made stuff up because new $ci-fi stories = money/fame.)
"How did J get its sound?"
"If a tree falls in a forest and no one is around, does it make a sound?"
"What is the sound of one hand clapping?"
🤣
Ooo, it sounds like some kind of Taoist riddle or something!
If a person doesn't believe in God anyway, then why would they care how somebody pronounces His name?
If a person does believe in God, then don't they think He's smart enough to know when a person means "the God whose name is Jehovah or Yahweh" or whatever?
The Pharisees knew how to pronounce a lot of things, but Jesus still didn't think they were very smart.
"Woe to you, scribes and Pharisees, hypocrites! because you give the tenth of the mint and the dill and the cumin, but you have disregarded the weightier matters of the Law, namely, justice and mercy and faithfulness. These things it was necessary to do, yet not to disregard the other things. Blind guides, who strain out the gnat but gulp down the camel!"
Faith is more important than pronunciation, just like truth is more important than false stories.
1 Timothy 1:4-7
"...nor to pay attention to false stories and to genealogies. Such things end up in nothing useful but merely give rise to speculations rather than providing anything from God in connection with faith. Really, the objective of this instruction is love out of a clean heart and out of a good conscience and out of faith without hypocrisy. By deviating from these things, some have been turned aside to meaningless talk. They want to be teachers of law, but they do not understand either the things they are saying or the things they insist on so strongly."
