Darwinian är du norsk, eller? I så fall, vad betyder det du skrev?

No. I'm English with a bit of welsh thrown in for good measure.

But... why did you write in norweigan? Its confusing

Why? Does your god not love us?

(October 22, 2008 at 1:13 pm)ManofGOD Wrote: 3. GOD wants us to be holy, like him. There is a narrow path for good men(Jews, in this case) to follow.

And being good is being like you? Does that include being bigoted? Intolerant? Racist (probably)? Misogynistic (probably)?

(October 22, 2008 at 1:13 pm)ManofGOD Wrote: 4. Science is verifiable and true. Scripture cannot always be taken literally, but still contains divine truth. The earth is as old as science says. GOD created man and all seeming ancestors. The flood is a part of the story of salvation indicative of the end.

So some of your scriptures (the Bible? The Torah?) is literal, some is not? How do you tell which bits are to be taken literally and which are not? How do you know if you've interpreted the various bits correctly?

(October 22, 2008 at 1:13 pm)ManofGOD Wrote: 5. God is not supportive of slavery. The was the nature of man in that day. God did not try to overwhelm man by dictating everything at once.

So your god, implicitly supporting the slavery of the day, is immoral by today's standards or has morality just changed?

(October 22, 2008 at 1:13 pm)ManofGOD Wrote: 7. Remember that most of Jesus's miracles were also done by his disciples. This was how the church spread.

And that answer's the question of why there was no evidence exactly how? If things affect our world (as claimed miracles must do) then they must leave validatable evidence of their passing some of which will be detectable or validatable today ... why is there no such evidence?

Dawkins has likened the spread of religion to that of a virus.

(October 22, 2008 at 1:13 pm)ManofGOD Wrote: 8. God shows his face to the faithful. I hold that 90% of the church does not believe the truth of Jesus's life in their life.

Really? That would be the "no true Scotsman" fallacy!

(October 22, 2008 at 1:13 pm)ManofGOD Wrote: 9. This is to indicate how GOD is in everything around us.

Another interpretation ... how do you know that it is the correct one?

(October 22, 2008 at 1:13 pm)ManofGOD Wrote: 10. The true faithful, who swear before GOD, do NOT divorce.

Again that would be the "no true Scotsman" fallacy!

Kyu

GOD loves his creation. This is evident in his attempts to bring man to Him in the religions. This is the meaning of spiritual truth for all such truth comes from GOD.

One has first to recognise ones sinful nature, then keep from sinning while having faith in GOD that He loves you and will save you from a spiritual death.
This is the central message of the Holy Bible.

ManofGod. I cant take u seriosuly. I honestly think that u are just here, to either try to provoke or joking around.

I cant find any other explanation.

Otherwise are you probably mentaly ill, or are from Texas.

I'm hedging my bets on 'Texas'.

Hey ManofGod answer me this - and just humour me for a moment here - have you ever read the Bible?

It's one of my favourite questions to ask people claiming to be Christian. It's not a trick question.
