More drivel from the same crowd who claims they don't care about God, they don't believe, and yet they run to create mischief and vehemently rant, riot, scream, and tantrum about something that's make-believe and fantasy.

Some old jews made up a whole big rationale for why the world is the way it is and long since past time we ignored the superstitious clap trap they were selling. You're projecting onto God how you or I would act. Perhaps he's asking us, "what the heck kind of people would sit around for 50+ years and ignore all these claims made by children?" Perhaps he's giving us the opportunity to right a wrong? Again, if he steps in and stops stuff every time something bad were about to happen nothing bad would ever happen and cries of free will would be predictably coming from his naysayers.  This whole thing is bigger than you and me. Plans beyond our ways of thinking. I mean if I used your reasoning I would wonder what kind of a being would allow his ONLY son to be slaughtered and butchered for a bunch of vile, wicked, ungrateful clowns. What type of person would do that? A loving God that wants to spare his earthly children of what they deserve would be my guess. A penalty had to be paid for this sin thing. If you don't acknowledge the penalty that was paid, then you will pay your own debt. Me personally? I'll pass on paying my own sin debt. It doesn't sound all that pleasant to me.

Yes. Sometimes bad situations work out for the positive and sometimes they don't. Looking around the world/US, it's pretty clear that the Christian God is pretty content to NOT intervene and allow a LOT of horrible things to happen.

There is no god so I'm not projecting. But as a figment of the human imagination it doesn't make much sense that it would b such an unbelievably complete ahole unless you just have to make excuses for what you made up. If you think the Jesus bit where he is killed supposedly somehow saves people I don't know what to tell you. It's all as absurd as the stuff CB posts. Why does a penalty have to be paid? What's the point? |
