Dear Christians

Why should He, what requirement in the universe says that He should give an amputee a limb back. God healed the amputees or they would have died from their injuries.

I have to say GC, this is a very disturbing attitude, there. It's almost as if you can't understand basic morally good traits like empathy or charity.

I choose to believe that you aren't a sociopath though, and instead I just think that you don't have a satisfying answer to Hobie's question and so became intractable to avoid just saying so.

There's no shame in "I don't know," though! You don't have to make yourself look like some alien with a completely different, incomprehensible view of morality to avoid saying it!

Look around, how is "evolution" working out for us?

Hmm, let's see...

Well, it helps us cure diseases, develop smart engineering solutions, domesticates our animals (pets, work animals and farm animals), allows us to develop better crops to feed the world, gives us an understanding of the limitations of our bodies and how they can be improved, gives us unparalleled insight into the natural world...

Oh! And gives us all creationists to laugh at!

I'd say it's working out far better than your god ever has, bud.

Except that diseases came from evolution in the first place.

Satan and his minions are not permanent fixtures here.

Pious blather.

[Esquilax]

True enough, but if we relinquished our understanding of evolution and went with the creation model "professor" wants us to, our ability to predict what those diseases will do, and thus develop defenses against them, would be seriously impaired.

[Phatt Matt s]

Jesus was called to be a victim soul. Since we are called to the communion of Saints (one body in Christ) we are called to share in the victimhood, suffering, mortification, crucifixion, death, and Ressurection of Christ. As the suffering of Christ atoned for the sins of the World so is our suffering to be offered to God in union with the Crucifixion of Christ as a sin offering to atone for our sins and those of the whole world.

GOd wants us to suffer in this life. We have an eternity of no suffering and this life is one second in comparison. All this bullshit will be over in no time. We'll share the same lot as those hundreds of generations of unfortunate disenfranchised Motherfuckers that came before us. Our Childrens childrens children shall also come, go, and remain stinking in the earth.

Ah you are talking about the knowledge of evolution not the evolution itself. Ok then.

TC, I suggest you purge all those Catholic lies out of your thinking.
Man made doctrines. You will always be confused if you cling to them.

[tor]

Do you have any idea how much irony is in this post? If I were to venture a guess I'd say it's around a metric fuckton.

[SteelCurtain]

Frame of reference, a metric fuckton is more than a metric shit-ton, but less than a metric fuckload.
