I'm tired of people like you pretending to have an invisible friend in the sky.
Go fuck yourself....and your god. The biblical God character was simply the series of men who ruled the various dominant Middle Eastern empires in ancient times. "God" was just a title. The invisible sky deity is actually only referred to a few times in the Bible. All of the "God" dialogue is the human rulers speaking.
The ancient rulers did a very clever thing by elevating themselves to "God" because it gave them special authority beyond what they could normally possess. By claiming that they derived their authority from some invisible sky being it created a sense of awe in the local yokels. It helped to keep them in power. The priests created a parallel system to sell the BS as religion, thereby brainwashing everyone into complete obedience to the ruler regardless of what commands he issued.
After thousands of years of such BS in all cultures local yokels still treat their rulers pretty much as "God". Only a very few brave people are able to standup to the power of their "God." In recent American history one such person that comes to mind is Cassius Clay, aka as Mohammed Ali. During the Vietnam War he refused to join the military because he said that the Vietnam people had never done anything to him. He paid a big price for that. Meanwhile tens of thousands of men went to their deaths just because their "God" told them that the Viet Cong was their enemy although not one of them didn't personally know any or had never seen any. That's the power of "God" because of the complete brainwashing everyone gets exposed to. Only "demons" (or sinners who will end up in hell) are able to resist.
One thing is 100% certain: there are no celestial gods of any kind in this solar system. There has never been any, and there never will be any. But humans do tend to regard their rulers as gods, even today, everywhere on the planet. When they say "jump" people tend to ask "how high?" They just refrain from calling them "gods" because that has gone out of style except for maybe in North Korea. The Japanese god died after WWII when the US demoted him to just a man.
We will get a new god in 2017 and live and die according to his whims.

You're the one who started calling other people dumb when they said things that you don't agree with. I try to be patient with believers who come around and not actually troll, but starting off with name-calling is over the line.
Chances are good that the reason why you are here is that you don't really believe the bible, for all the shit it contains, and that presents a sensible conflict with your church teachings, which swear by its wholesomeness and authenticity. But you are afraid to put it down, and it scares you to see people like us being free to call it what as we see it. That makes a troll very testy, indeed!
When did I ever say that Jesus is my God LOL boy you slippin.. LOL, are you pulling a poe on us, or what god are you a fanboy of?
Mr. Hanky loves you!

You're a fucking weirdo if you're serious, and no I don't claim seriously to be a god myself!
By the way, you're still going to burn for taking the Lord's name in vain. 'Cause I say so, and that's as good as saying the planets are gods!
Mr. Hanky loves you!

I believe it's time we modify the English language by adding a second "s" to that word "astrology".

The LHC it is a particle accelerator it smashes particles together(just the basic idea of it). the reason why i was like oh boy i was over looking the conversation between you and other guy.
