Sure but your god is not an example of love, according to your own definition. Regards DL

There are no real facts in a book of fiction. Only fools read myths like it was history. Regards DL
September 06, 2019 at 21:16
So you think that man's higherst form is to be too stupid to even know we was naked and having his moral sense as bling, as scriptures state was the s...

A warning is good, but you forget that what god warned about was exactly want he put Satan in Eden himself, which had the ability do deceive the whole...
September 06, 2019 at 21:11
Yes. It shows lack of confidence in what is being held back. Regards DL
September 06, 2019 at 20:36
What do scriptures say of god and man forgiving? 7 x 70 times I think are the numbers. God may not be able to count. Regards DL

I don't know if I appreciate this guy preaching for Gnostic Christianity. Rather gothic. He does not speak too badly though. https://www.youtube.com/w...
September 06, 2019 at 20:29
Quite possibly. All I can tell for sure is that he is a deadbeat dad who will not visit us, the children of god. Regards DL
September 06, 2019 at 20:27
The way the term is used today, yes. Regards DL
September 06, 2019 at 20:22
I hear you. Trump is a saint as compared to the god those right wingers follow. The Christian god is a fascist and so is Trump. Regards DL
August 31, 2019 at 13:20
Why? Regards DL
August 31, 2019 at 13:18
Let me give it as a response here. Ignorance is bliss has a benefit for believers. It makes them a tad happier than non-religious, believers live long...
August 31, 2019 at 13:18
If you look at the Vatican's expulsion painting you will see that Satan is definitely portrayed as a female. If you read what the church fathers had t...

Indeed, and it was mostly by fighting that wives were found and that pattern was quite long until people found that a trade war killed a lot fewer tha...
August 31, 2019 at 13:05
Indeed. Let us all thank Gaia and nature for giving us the ability to compete and sin when we are not cooperating, which is what we mostly do. Without...
August 30, 2019 at 20:26
I fail to see the problem as our friend is quite good at analogical thinking. Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 19:59
It makes a huge difference in how scriptures are to be understood. Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 19:56
You were too busy laughing. Do try to make sense next time. Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 19:52
Not according to the dictionaries I use. In some senses, their is a bit of truth in both statements. Jesus can only be a subjective entity, as we all ...
August 30, 2019 at 19:50
No. Jesus said, "Perhaps people think that I have come to cast peace upon the world. They do not know that I have come to cast conflicts upon the eart...
August 30, 2019 at 18:19
All moral people will give the ancient Gnostic Christians points for putting morality at the top of their list for their god and calling out Yahweh fo...
August 30, 2019 at 18:12
I would expect that from a fool. Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 17:48
It is well known that the Sumerian and Egyptian myths were plagiarized for the bible. That mekes your request irrelevant as I am dealing with the bibl...
August 30, 2019 at 17:47
Upset, no. Disappointed, yes. I hate to see people with I.Q.s and morals that are lower than plant life. I think that the literal reading of myths was...
August 30, 2019 at 17:34
Yes, including the fact that humans want a powerful god and not a moral one. That is why they choose to follow a genocidal moral monster instead of se...
August 30, 2019 at 17:25
I can agree with this and accept it as an decent analogy. Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 17:24
Not when Satan or the talking serpent is there with a power that god gave her to deceive the whole world. Or do you think the serpent had no role in E...
August 30, 2019 at 17:22
Show which tree and where it is growing. In your driveway is evil but in your back yard, it could be good. Do try harder as I do not write anything th...
August 30, 2019 at 16:50
Yes, it would be quite simplistic to take your view, given that the moral of the story is that we are perfect and evolving to a more perfect state at ...

Try the original/better thinking. http://dish.andrewsullivan.com/2013/10/20/comparative-theodicy/ ‘Instead of the Fall of man (in the sense of humanit...
August 30, 2019 at 16:38
What free will could A & E have when they did not know anything of good and evil? To make a free willed choice and not a coin flip, one must know what...
August 30, 2019 at 16:20
Any who do miss the moral of the story. Note that the Jews see our elevation which Christianity sees a fall. Jews are correct while Christians are con...
August 30, 2019 at 16:17
I do not agree with this. Gen3;22 Behold, the man has become like one of Us, knowing good and evil; I can almost guarantee that our morals are better ...
August 30, 2019 at 16:14
Especially when one is fool enough to read a myth literally. Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 16:08
Because Christianity has tied Jesus to Yahweh which makes Jesus party to the genocide of man in Noah's days. Jesus himself is shown as having really p...
August 30, 2019 at 16:06
Why should anyone seek what is shown to be a satanic genocidal god? Should people not seek a good god? Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 15:58
I am saying that one cannot be a decent human being without knowledge of good and evil, which is basically the knowledge of everything as everything i...
August 30, 2019 at 15:56
Perhaps you I.Q. just needs a boost. Let me help. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vJ1PDxeUynA Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 15:48
They need to be as big of liars and hypocrites as the religious. Trump is already there. Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 15:43
The conclusion should lead you to recognize that god is not defined properly as no one can access the supernatural realm he is said to exist in. Men p...
August 30, 2019 at 15:40
True. In a dualistic world, god must have a Yin and Yang. The bible confirms this. Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 15:35
Indeed. They are a disgrace toi the human race. Why do you not hate a genocidal and infanticidal god? Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 15:34
True, and how Christians get from a genocidal and infanticidal god to look good is something Christians run away from explaining. Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 15:32
No. They did the best they could with what they had. Do you credit your parents to some extent for the good in you? Why would you compare humans to to...
August 30, 2019 at 15:29
If you love mankind, then you should hate the gods that would enslaver us. like Yahweh and Allah. Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 15:27
We are already a part of a major global extinction event. We may have doomed our grandchildren. Regards DL
August 30, 2019 at 15:25
I don't know as I have yet to see such a thing. Why would you compared a man's ability to a gods? Do you see us as equal to god or perhaps better give...
August 30, 2019 at 15:24
True, yet to the Jews who invented Yahweh, Eden was where man was elevated and not where he fell. Christians seem to ignore how the Jews defined Yahwe...

My only intention is to make Christians think of the prick they are idol worshiping and recognize that such a prick is not a worthy god. Hitchens, is ...
