I always find it amusing that gods mouthpeices on earth think that it's somehow on the person who just doesn't "get" how righteous divine ethnic cleansing is - they just didn't pray enough about it. Who'd have imagined that a god would be such a poor communicator?
A lot of people don't, and there are a few reasons for that, the main one being that they have no connection with God through a knowledge of the Bible, and prayer.
Quote:You are quite right, every war, every attrocity in the world since day one, has had a spiritual or religious backbone. And that includes what we typically view as a political/secular wars, such as WWI and II. There are specific religious organisations behind all wars.That sounds as silly as temporary amnesia regarding the contents of magic book. Are you having this conversation internally? I ask..because no one proposed as much in thread.
