How can fundamentalists not wake up?

Would you be interested in a slightly used 9/11 conspiracy theory?

Depends. Does it involve lizard people?

Yes. And robots.

The whole purpose of the OT was to show the need for a redeemer, because no one was keeping the 10 Commandments, and to show who the redeemer was.

The commandments are rather faulty. the first four are just about worshiping Yahweh. You have no killing or stealing, with a long list of exceptions. Then you have thought crime.

Also why is Yahweh worth worshiping, anyway, and what makes him better than us?

Some people talk about everything belonging to Yahweh, who created everything, but just because you made it doesn't mean you retain ownership of it for all time. I can make a car, and give it to someone. that doesn't mean I can decide years down the road to just take it back.

Making a car and creating the universe are not even close to being the same.

How is it different? He created the world, and my far off ancestors, and that gives him some right over me? Why?

He gave you life and every day you've lived to this point. You use His creation daily and He doesn't begrudge you it. Besides you didn't create a thing, you just put parts together as someone taught you, God on the other hand needed no teacher.

That's probably one of the many aspects of your cartoon deity you shouldn't persistently try to emulate.

He, as the bible clearly states, created man in his own image. So, please explain to me how he got it all wrong with the likes of Jon Browner Minnoch, Robert Pershing Wadlow, John Merrick? How about children who suffer from cancer at an early age? How about myself; a sufferer of Epilepsy and also Cluster headaches, which is the worst pain imaginable. What did the aforementioned people do to warrant being large, extremely tall, extremely disfigured because of an extreme form of elephantitis? Please convince me as to how God gave them life, when all they got was a life of suffering and humilation.

Oh boy, you're in for a treat now
