Shit, this Satan fellow seems to have things working pretty well. Certainly better now than the time Jesus was supposedly kicking around.
Yes this world that has seen in the last century more deaths in war than all previous history, this world where much of it lives with the fear of some sort of terrorism, is this the safe world you're talking about. How about this one, one crazy mistake and we'll have nuclear winter, do you actually know how close we came to nuclear war during the Cuban missile crisis, do you really know. I doubt it.

Tell you what: you wanna live more like Jesus? Cool. Quit your job, sell your house, give your money away, then live in the woods with, say, a spear, sling, and net. Decline any modern medicine, including vaccines. Get closer to your god by dying a few decades earlier than you otherwise would. I'll stay nice and warm with Satan.
If you continue to walk this same path you'll wished you could have stayed warm with Satan. As for you above statement it shows your childish understanding of the scriptures, that's why no Christian can take you seriously.
