Or are you confused about your own belief system? Oh...Wait I forgot the bible specified that as well:
1 Corinthians 14:33
"For God is not the author of confusion, but of peace, as in all churches of the saints."

Except if you count all the contradictions in the bible...then none of these two verses would actually make sense, but then again who is counting.

Rev 6:4 And out came another horse, bright red. Its rider was permitted to take peace from the earth, so that people should slay one another, and he was given a great sword.
Rev 6:5 When he opened the third seal, I heard the third living creature say, "Come!" And I looked, and behold, a black horse! And its rider had a pair of scales in his hand.
Rev 6:6 And I heard what seemed to be a voice in the midst of the four living creatures, saying, "A quart of wheat for a denarius, and three quarts of barley for a denarius, and do not harm the oil and wine!"
Rev 6:7 When he opened the fourth seal, I heard the voice of the fourth living creature say, "Come!"
Rev 6:8 And I looked, and behold, a pale horse! And its rider's name was Death, and Hades followed him. And they were given authority over a fourth of the earth, to kill with sword and with famine and with pestilence and by wild beasts of the earth.

Thanks. As usual, Death is the most badass of the Horsemen. I guess the Bible's good for something after all, aside from toilet paper, burning, target practice, and other destructive ends.

Presumably, you're deceived by The Deceiver. Rev can tell, because you don't buy into the exact same non-falsifiable belief system that he does.

That's what The Deceiver does: he makes it so people don't believe one very specific non-falsifiable belief. He doesn't care about the other infinite number of similar beliefs. He's sneaky like that. The greatest trick the devil ever pulled was convincing Christians he has phenomenal cosmic powers, as evidence by how they started writing about him in the New Testament.

The ark is a picture of Christ. I wish, if I could, grab you'll by the wrist and drag you into the ark and save you from the coming destruction, but I can't. All I can do is plead you enter before the door closes.

Dude, give it up. I can clearly see through you.

In North Korea, King jun un is seen as a godking by many of the civilians. I'm sure he claims that he is a good guy and the rest of the world are the bad guys.

But is he the good guy simply because he says he is?

Is he good at all in reality?

Do you see my point?

He said He would never again destroy the earth with WATER.

So is he going to destroy it with fire?

Well, all astronomic models show that we're not in immediate danger of being smacked by a piece of fuckhuge apocalyptic space-dirt, and if it were to come to pass that it is guaranteed that we're going to be sometime soon, I'm pretty sure our most brilliant scientists would be able to devise a method of diverting it. Wouldn't be cheap or easy but with guys like Neil deGrasse Tyson running amok, I'm pretty sure we'd overcome such an obstacle.

Besides, the world's not NEARLY as bad as it was, say...70 years ago?

Jesus walked on water and God destroyed a couple cities with his fire and brimstone, cities whose populations numbered ~2000 people.

Mankind invented something that could let us do this to our own cities.



Could. And we did.



Twice.



First time killed over a hundred thousand human beings. Second time killed another thirty-five thousand.

Those two bombs were the weakest of that class of weapons that we've built. Nowadays...





The weapon in the second image in this post had the power to hit with the force of 21 kilotons (that's 21,000 tons) of TNT. That nuke that sits upon the Minuteman ICBM there?

The force of its explosion is that of 350 kilotons (350,000 tons) of TNT. And that missile can load three at a time. One missile can deliver over a megaton (one million tons) of explosive force. That is not even taking into consideration the sheer heat that such an explosion would cause.

Man is a much more terrifying entity than god. If the god of the bible existed, he would look upon mankind...

And then he would shit himself in terror.

Unless god was lying when he said he never lies. How would you know if he did? You're just assuming he's not lying because that's what you want to be true.
