I was responding to Tobie who incorrectly asserted;
Quote:...Anyway, you do realise that your angry desert god Yahweh is just a Zeus kind of figure but with the other gods later retconned by the tribes that invented him?

Thats exactly right. I do worship the same God. The fact that the cave man and me have incomplete and non-identical
understandings of the exact nature of God doesnt prevent either of us from worship.

Now look who is making assertions about what God is/isnt.
Where do you get YOUR information?

Thats funny. I am very happy with the direction modern science is taking. Until recently, I could never have used dark energy/big bang inflation (''modern science'') to justify the biblical statement that God stretches out the heavens. Whoever thought that the multiverse idea of another dimension of space/time reality existing beyond our universe (Heaven/Afterlife) might actually be scientifically feasible after all.
And I think we can give modern science credit for providing the ultrasound evidence that embryos are people. Science is turning around peoples views on abortion and F.A.S.D. (And Facebook pictures of embryos at 6 weeks.)
Science is providing the means by which the "viability" of life outside the womb is getting earlier and earlier. Science is providing the evidence that embryos "feel" (respond to) external stimulii at LEAST as early as 4 weeks from conception. Science is providing the "clinically proven " evidence used by companies like Bayer/Elevit which market products products for use BEFORE and during pregnancy - TO ENHANCE HEALTH OUTCOMES FOR EMBRYOS.
Science is doing a great job sanctifying life.
If the first people who postulated an invisible friend were right, then why are you not worshiping their god? "God speaks to people in different ways". Then there is nothing stopping you from going to the starting point.
And what the fuck does this have to do with abortion? Is this your pathetic way of making pro choice people look like Hitler?
A SPERM IS A POTENTIAL LIFE so every time you masturbate you are committing mass genocide.
And if you want to claim science is leading to a god, how convenient and original, like people outside your pet claim don't do that either. And if it is all the same god, then your pet label is not required and any label will do.
If anything is possible because humans don't know, and since you are not at my end of the computer and "anything goes" by default, then Angelina Jolie is sucking my dick right now, HOW DO YOU KNOW, ARE YOU WATCHING ME RIGHT NOW?
