William Lane Craig says that "it is an outrageous form of racism and species egoism to suggest that Jesus didn't die for the sins of Homo Heidelbergensis and Neanderthals."

Christians: "All other gods are so fake that we should totally ridicule them. It's even our sacred duty commanded in the Bible.

But if someone mocks Jesus and our religion, then they are crossing the line of decency. They are persecuting us! They should totally respect every belief we have! But fuck Buddha and Allah."

Quote:Should Christians sing “Buddha is dead and Allah is silent”?

A new worship song has been doing the rounds on social media and raising some eyebrows.

Bailey Redmond’s ‘Dead Idols’ includes the lyrics, “Buddha is dead, Muhammad’s in the grave, Allah is silent, they’re all dead idols”.

Bailey Redmond says that it was her compassion for those who are lost that led her to first sing “Buddha is dead, Muhammad’s in the grave, Allah is silent, they’re all dead idols”. She wants to proclaim the truth and to rebuild God’s altar (like Elijah did in 1 Kings 18) in the context of a nation where she believes Christianity is under attack.

So should songs like this be written and sung? I think it’s hard to argue that they shouldn’t because at its core, the song is expressing what we believe to be true. After all, many of us sing Chris Tomlin’s “Our God is greater / Our God is stronger / God you are higher than any other”. Granted this song feels more in your face than that, but they are essentially expressing the same truth. Ultimately, we need balance. God is holy and jealous, but God is also compassionate and kind. We need songs that speak to all of these truths.

Meanwhile... If you are a voter in America and you don't vote this midterms (for a republican) you are going to hell.

Quote:Trump tells Republicans at midterm convention 'you go to hell' if you don't vote in November

US President Donald Trump closed out the Republican midterm convention in Dallas, Texas on Thursday night by making attendees take a pledge to vote in the November midterm elections.

"I pledge to the greatest president in the history of the United States ... I’m going to get my friends, my family, and we are going to vote on Nov. 3, or we are going to vote before that ... I don't care if I'm registered or not. I'm going to try and cheat like hell, like they do," Trump told the crowd, implying that Democrats cheat during elections.

After attendees made the pledge, Trump added another remark that roused the audience: "You know what happens if you don’t vote? You go to hell."

This Dean Withers debate takes me back to the days where I was trying to reconcile the Christian idea of God as a good and all-powerful being who still sees fit to allow horrific things to happen, and realising that free will didn't actually make things make more sense, and desperately trying to find any conclusion other than God:The Devil::Big Brother: O'Brien that makes sense.

Have you tried the UFO/alien meditation? If enough people do this, it will bring utopia and half a million years of world peace. I mean, do you like peace? Why don't you try it? Remember Pascal's wager: you won't lose anything, but you can gain everything.

Russians are unleashing their superweapon that will defeat Ukrainians.

Quote:Orthodox church sends medieval prince’s remains to Russian troops in Ukraine

The Russian Orthodox church has sent a fragment of a medieval warrior prince’s remains to troops fighting in Ukraine, saying the relic would “spiritually strengthen” soldiers and help them achieve victory.

A reliquary containing part of the right hand of Dmitry Donskoy, the 14th-century prince revered in Russia for his victory over the Mongolian Golden Horde in 1380, has been taken to Russian-occupied eastern Ukraine and is now being transported along the frontline.

The Russian Orthodox church said in a statement: “The holy commander is going to where the fate of the fatherland is being decided today, so that he may invisibly take his place in the same battle ranks as our defenders.”

The relic was first brought on Tuesday to the Savur-Mohyla war memorial in the Russian-occupied Donetsk region of Ukraine, where senior Orthodox clergy held a prayer service alongside representatives of the Russian military.

Metropolitan Vladimir of Donetsk and Mariupol said its presence would help soldiers and civilians “mobilise their strength” and secure victory over the enemy.

Earlier this year, relics of Alexander Nevsky, another medieval prince and military hero revered by the Russian Orthodox church, were also sent to the front.

The Battleship Church because Jesus said "Boom! Boom! Boom!"

Christians are about to prove that a fairy tale is real by digging holes in the ground.

Quote:Drilling begins at ‘Noah’s Ark’ site as researchers probe Turkey’s controversial Durupinar formation

Researchers have begun drilling into a mysterious, boat-shaped formation in the mountains of eastern Turkey, hoping an underground robot will unearth the answer to one of biblical history’s biggest mysteries.

Members of the Noah’s Ark Scans expedition believe the Durupinar formation, located in eastern Turkey near Mount Ararat, could mark the final resting place of the vessel described in Genesis.

“Good morning from the outer rims of Noah’s ark,” the project’s marketing and fundraising director, divisive Christian activist Lauren Witzke, wrote in a Tuesday update.

“Core drilling has begun and the big bang evolutionists are already in damage control mode,” she continued.

Witzke said the expedition had Turkish government approval and oversight from local universities, with “some of the most brilliant minds in the world” taking part.

She made the sensational claim that, “When we are done, university curricula will need to be rewritten, and Darwinism will be dismantled.”

“This is the place where creation began anew,” she enthused.

Witzke is a controversial figure in American politics.

The former Senate candidate is a self-proclaimed “flat-earther,” has voiced support for the right-wing conspiracy theory QAnon, and once called the Covid vaccine a “satantic plot.”

But while Witzke handles publicity for the team, it includes bona fide archaeologists and geologists from around the world, such as Project Director Dr. Cenker Atila, from Turkey’s Sivas Cumhuriyet University.

Biggest mysteries, really? A bigger mystery is why they think a 2k year old (at least) superstitious myth, that contradicts the geological record with claims for a global flood, can be evidenced by digging up a fkn boat? Also, HTAF does a flat earther imagine water can rise 20 ft above any peak, wouldn't it just pour off the edges? What am I thinking, magic trumps reason every time, unless you want what you imagine to have any practical application to objective reality of course.
