Cool dude! I'm pretty sure I just got Radioheaded.

God/No God...seems a bit trivial now.

See, thats called special pleading. You havent explained WHY. Asking me to do something...just because you said so, with no other reason, isnt very persuasive. Sorry.

ChildOfReason.

¨Because I said so"
You base your entire belief on "because the bible says so"

Nope. That's not true.
You obviously don't know me very well.

Are you aware that long before the bible was even written, tons of people thought God was a matter of fact? Eg. Abraham didn't have a bible.

Nope. Wrong again. I can make a case against same-sex 'marriage' which is entirely secular social science and which is based on Darwinian/Evolutionary natural selection.

Now what was that virulent whinge you were making against all the Strawman arguments you encounter here at AF?

Yes, but Abraham had a god that would directly communicate with him. Which is something you don't have. You're still relying on the bible.

Not one that's actually consistent with a proper understanding of evolution, I guarantee you.

I wasn't aware that recognizing the fact that evolution is real meant that I was supposed to give a shit about how homosexuality impacts it.

Don't waste your time trying to legitimize your homophobia by using science. It is a tactic befitting the title of this thread and won't fool anybody into thinking that your superstitious paranoia is suddenly a viewpoint not deserving of utter scorn. Fuck off.

I'm sort of wondering how far you thought this level of deliberate obtuseness would take you. Certainly not longer than a single response post, since aside from the entirely obvious story of Abraham and Isaac, God directly communicates with Abraham as early as fucking Genesis.

Genesis 12 Wrote:Now the LORD said unto Abram: 'Get thee out of thy country, and from thy kindred, and from thy father's house, unto the land that I will show thee.

Quote:So Abram went, as the LORD had spoken unto him; and Lot went with him; and Abram was seventy and five years old when he departed out of Haran.

Do you enjoy others thinking you're a biblical illiterate, or is it just a natural consequence of desperation?

ROFLOL really? rrrrrreeeeaaaaalllllllyyyyyyyyy? oh boy. Esqui, um, just handle this please? I'm off to bed. Laughing. Thanks for that.
If I were to create self aware beings knowing fully what they would do in their lifetimes, I sure wouldn't create a HELL for the majority of them to live in infinitely! That's not Love, that's sadistic. Therefore a truly loving god does not exist!

Quote:The sin is against an infinite being (God) unforgiven infinitely, therefore the punishment is infinite.

Dead wrong.  The actions of a finite being measured against an infinite one are infinitesimal and therefore merit infinitesimal punishment.

Quote:Some people deserve hell.

I say again:  No exceptions.  Punishment should be equal to the crime, not in excess of it.  As soon as the punishment is greater than the crime, the punisher is in the wrong.

OK
We have established that God directly communicated to Abraham.

This is great! Tons of folk think Abraham never existed.

Was that seriously the trap you were setting? That's fucking pathetic.

Shit, I guess I just established the existence of Middle Earth, huh?

Are you fucking drunk, Lion?
