Quote:Matthew 11:25
At that time Jesus answered and said, I thank thee, O Father, Lord of heaven and earth, because thou hast hid these things from the wise and prudent, and hast revealed them unto babes.
Quote:Luke 13
13 Enter ye in at the strait gate: for wide is the gate, and broad is the way, that leadeth to destruction, and many there be which go in thereat:
14 Because strait is the gate, and narrow is the way, which leadeth unto life, and few there be that find it.
What a horridly unjust being your God must be to create an entire planet of humans, and then make his message so difficult to understand that the majority of his precious lambs end up burning in hell for eternity. It's a point I brought up a few pages ago actually (because, ya know, it relates to the OP) that you have ignored in favor of arguing about snake sex that obviously never happened except in your own imagination. Thanks for playing though.
