God's Ass

Read the passage stupid an see if you can possibly figure it out, I'm betting you can't though.

GC

You certainly don't seem to be able to explain it.

I doubt you could understand.

Try me. If you can explain it.

All those Biblical references and not one says they looked into each others eyes, God has no eyes as we know them, He is Spirit.

You have already decided that god has no body so when you read a bible verse that alludes to god's body parts, you can't accept them as being literal and have to explain them away.  T

You have not explained what face to face means or how a rock could protect Moses.

No I didn't decide it's in the scriptures and the verses are the explanation, how is it you seem not to be able to discern this when a person you call stupid often is able to, that doesn't speak to well of you.

No, some pastor or your parents made that decision for you when you were quite little, I'm sure. And ever since you're sure you have to embellish every word you read with some higher meaning.

Would you do the same if you read about Zeus, using the exact same words? Or would a face suddenly be a face, a hand a hand and a step a step?

Truth is, you're choosing the supernatural treat of your liking.

Sinful man would die if they saw God face to face in all His glory, the sight of a perfect being would be more than we could stand. The place allowed God to protect him from seeing His face, ..

What kind of MAGIC does god use to damage human tissue to the point of a fatality only when the man's eyes have passed the image of him to his brain?

Why did god create this Woo Woo magic to only show from his face and not his ass? What was his motive for setting himself up like that? Does a father that loves his children purposely design his exterior so that he would kill his children if they saw his face or experienced his goodness? The only reason a human would die from seeing god is if god wanted it that way? Why would he want it that way?

I must be on GC's ignore list? He never answers any of my posts anymore. Is it because I don't candy coat my questions?

How do you tell if I'm on someone's ignore list?

Genesis 3:8-10

Sounds rather corporeal to me.  And very affected by weather as he waited until the cool of the evening.

That's all you got from those verses, you really need to pay attention to what you read.

We aren't talking about what the Garden of Eden story is about.  That is a rather different discussion. We are talking about how god is depicted in the Bible--specifically whether he is a human looking creature or an ethereal spirit, or what. Those verses and many others in Genesis suggest a two legged man with superpowers. Specifically one with feet, a desire to walk in the cool of the evening, who gets in wrestling matches with his creations. Other verses, particularly the Prophets suggest a more unknowable being. Exodus is rather transitional.

GC

When did I call you stupid? That doesn't sound like something I would say.

The early part of the Old Testament refer to god as having a body. Later, theists decided he was spirit and did not have a body

You still haven't answered the purpose of the rock in protecting Moses from the sight of god or why the back of a deity would be less glorious than the front.

I wonder if that would be too complicated a feature to add to this site.

Like I said before you need to pay attention to what you read. When God had physical encounters with man it was Christ, not the Father. The reason God is described as having physical parts like hand, arm, feet and ect. because to this day man can't explain what Spirit is. I've asked that here several times and have yet to receive an answer.

 Come to think of it you most likely haven't, sorry for the accusation. Most atheist here have done so on numerous occasions it's difficult to remember who and I just generalized, again sorry.

Read my above post to Jenny for the OT answer.

Tell me can't you see the answer in the verses?
