Bible reading

[Wyrd of Gawd]

[Harry Nevis]

Why did they not ask him any more questions?

because at this point knew he spoke with the authority of God and to ask anything further would force them to admit their failings and demand change. That is the same reasons the questions stop being asked of me. They hear the authority of God and rather admit a failing that demands change they turn from questions to try and destroy the person speaking or in my case my credibility.

How do you get you enormous head through doorways?  Typical egotistical christian.

[John V]

It's a pity then that your god didn't think to mention anywhere the importance of reading in context.

Why should he have mentioned something that's common knowledge?

---

There is a WHOLE bunch of crap that the all-knowing "god" didn't think to mention.  Too bad the all-powerful creator of the universe is incapable of simple communication.

It's too bad you're not capable of simple logic.

That a person doesn't do something doesn't necessarily mean they're incapable of doing it.

Why is this so puzzling to you guys?

Sometimes a teacher knows the answers to an issue, but instead of simply giving that knowledge to the students, assigns a research project. There's value in the research itself.

[Kitan Etos]

The difference being that we can see the teacher exists; the same cannot be stated for god.

You don't listen to many sermons, huh?

[John V]

God doesn't claim to be precise and clear. Just the opposite. Read Proverbs 25:2.

God isn't claiming anything in that proverb.  Someone else is.

Atheist 1: Proposes problem with the Bible
Christian: Addresses proposed problem with Bible
Atheist 2: Derp derp but god don't exist anyhows

Don't you guys ever get tired of this lame tag-team ploy?

I take it you're a believer in the omniscient and omnipotent god even though it makes said god the most morally corrupt god imaginable?

[John V]

I take it you're a believer in the omniscient

Yes.

and omnipotent god

Almighty is a better term.

even though it makes said god the most morally corrupt god imaginable?

Gonna have to go ahead and disagree with you there.

I know that you'd disagree with me there, I will come to explain my reasoning behind my statement. But before that, would you say that your god is the creator of our universe and everything in it?
