Prove that statement please, you made it not me.
God loves those who believe and those who do not and the same goes for me, you have no choice in this matter. That puts the matter of total free will to rest.

There is no evidence of any such tower, nor has there ever been.

Done.

RE: Why did God divide the people of Babel?
I'd love to see a theist prove it's true. It's a ridiculous made up explanation for what we can know by just using common sense, which was obviously sparse if they needed a cockamamie story like this to make them understand it.

Christians are always trying to unthink the thinkable.

As usual it's you who looks like an idiot, G-C.

Of course, this would be long after they experienced freezing conditions far, far lower down, so they'd never find that out in the first place.

Yes, God knew that they nor anyone else could build a tower that would reach heaven. You could travel throughout the universe and not reach heaven. Go back and read the story again and see if you can find the truth in the passage. Hint it's not God who looks like an idiot.

I find it more than a little disturbing that god would interfere with bullshit like this, yet do absolutely nothing while parents are beating their little children to death in his name. God's priorities are fucked up. Always have been.

Because he was made up by people, who often have fucked up priorities.

Leave it to Epimethean to call out the pink elephant.

When do christians beat their children to death. I see in the news to often where people that use drugs and ect. kill there children, they even throw them in dumpsters. It's not God's priorities that are messed up, it's man kind who is messed up. God in His good omniscience does punish these who hurt children no matter who they are.

The Christians whom read Michael Pearls book which uses bible scripture to justify this shit.

The three girls that I've met personally who threw their babies in the dumpster or something of the like were NOT junkies, they were young and scared of how their Christian Parents were going to act about the pregnancies they got after being taught the great Christian wisdom of abstinence before marriage.

God is my foot! Nobody can quite fuck up sufficiently as idiots with Jesus in their hearts.

Since when are the groups of "people that do drugs" and "christians" mutually exclusive? On the weight of sheer numbers alone your friendly neighborhood meth head will almost certainly be a christian.

Demonstrate that god punishes anyone, for anything. Or that god has ever punished anyone, for anything.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!
