After all, we always create that which we most desire, that which will have the most positive influence on society, and only through the ages as we progress does it become most apparent that what used to be popular has found itself floundering amidst the waves of societal change.that's not true. when the bible was translated from the greek to latin and local bibles were being translated from the Latin God did change, and even today in the catholic church god changes all the time.. or didn't you hear there is no hell, homosexuality is ok and sin is not 'in?' it is only in the original text which if you read it was very counter culture back then as it is now if not more so as it demanded right be given to women and slaves alike. This shows God to be and always has been the antithesis to man's culture and man's expression of freedom.
Quote:Anyone intelligent enough to spell a word properly should also be capable of understanding that a god which should exist cannot disgrace us with messages that only come from believers full of overwhelming acclaim that overshadows logic.an anyone not preprogrammed to think one way or another about God would have read his bible and come to understand that the God of the bible is not the God of perfection but the God of redemption. and in order for one to be redeemed one must be prone to making mistakes, yes even the mistakes of offending the precious snowflakes that find him and his followers offensive as we do not align ourselves with the righteousness of this world.
Quote:Dishonor fills the theistic world on too many levels for any of their apologetics to be taken seriously. Be a true believer and own up to your abhorrent silliness or forfeit the illogical faith for reality.
Dishonor fills the Atheistic world on too many levels for any of their apologetics to be taken seriously. Be a true believer and own up to your abhorrent silliness or forfeit the illogical faith for reality. one letter and i fixed your statement to read true again. or can't you see that you have no base line, no absolutes to make such an assessment?Quote:As the idea of god is a disgrace to any sensible individual, unwarranted belief is not above reproach.why because he allows us to make our mistakes and gives a life time to seek atonement for them? take a sec.. reread what i just said... do you full understand how this simple statment applies to your whole argument and uproots everything you are at odds with?
Quote:After all, a true god would not be the kind of disappointment that cannot prove his existence to anyone except those who profess through ill reason.
to you.. God has not proven his existence to you... and who are you that God must court and peruse you separately? or did you not read enough of his word to know God has a path spelled out for us to find him? a billion ++ have just in this generation... 90 some odd percent believe is some kinda of God and or spirituality and less than 2% of the world think as you do, and if you look through out time atheism has always been about 2% plus or minus a few point from time to time. kinda like people being born blind.. that percentage has been about 2% + or - a few point in man's history. maybe you and people like you are missing a spiritual receptor/sense that everyone else on the planet has.. https://www.gordonconwell.edu/center-for...y-2021.pdf
