Questions For You Non Believers

[Ryantology]

Can we expect non-Christians not to live in sin? Absurd. So of course, you don't see a problem. You'd only see it as a problem if you converted the Christianity and realized that sin is condemned.

We don't see it as a problem because, what is the problem? Objectively, what is bad or negative about being an unwed couple, or a homosexual couple, or what have you?

If you are a more clever and contentious Christian, you'll reach for statistics showing correlation between non-traditional couples and bad things of your choosing, ignoring three facts:

1. Most of the same problems can occur to traditional couples.
2. Almost all of the problems which do not apply to traditional couples exist as a result of cultural bias against non-traditional couples.
3. None of it actually proves that one situation is objectively superior to any other.

The simpler sheep of the flock will just resort to "God says so", which is not an answer at all as it explains nothing.

Of course we should be inwardly focused. For instance, I find it disturbing that so many of us are overweight. Maybe put it down to an oversight, but the reality is that many people don't want to acknowledge their own sinful lifestyle. A lifestyle which leads us to be fat is clearly sinful. God destroyed Sodom because the people were fat and lazy, proud and inhospitable:

Ezekiel 16:49-50: 'Behold, this was the guilt of your sister Sodom: she and her daughters had pride, excess of food, and prosperous ease, but did not aid the poor and needy. They were haughty and did an abomination before me. So I removed them, when I saw it.'

This almost sounds convincing until you remember that God did not spare the poor and needy of Sodom. He murdered them all, and not indiscriminately. Apparently, not one of those poor and needy were considered 'righteous' enough to spare the city on their behalf, or to be spared individually. So, we have more heavenly hypocrisy via the great psychopath in the sky.

So I'm far more concerned about the health of the Church and the Christians, than to concern myself overly with the ways of the world.

Then, what are you doing here?

Some things are certain and some things are not. Get past it.

One certainty is that you worship an ancient myth, fabricated in an ancient age of ignorance and bloodshed. Get past it.
