They don't, because it's a load of wank.Thus, how could they receive final judgement, get rewarded or punished, and go live their second lives?
That is what state religions are for.Written by men seeking to control the general populace...
You didn't read it, did you.The article does not address anything to counter the evidence presented in the OSU. Oops.
Yeah, probably.Satanist!!!View attachment 276937Here's a nice scholarly article on the evolution of birds from dinosaurs.Sorry, this is a long post, but it's something that happened on USMB and triggered a revelation. It is not a popular subject -- Satan. I am not afraid of Satan, but he is quite a powerful being. In the Bible, he is "god of the world and prince of the power of the air."
IIRC, it happened in the thread "Atheists want proof of God?" There was a person, whom I think was an evolutionist, who exclaimed birds came from dinosaurs. I said that I didn't think little, tiny birds evolved from great, big, gigantic dinosaurs and that Oregon State University research showed that a bird's lung development was different from a dinosaur's, i.e. a bird would not be able to breathe and fly if they had lungs like dinosaurs. He came back and insisted, "BIRDS ARE DINOSAURS!" and went on to rant. There was no contradicting him, so I just ignored until he left.
Later, I looked at my six days of creation chart and saw that birds were created on the 4th day while land animals were created on the 5th. It dawned on me that whatever atheists/evolutionists believe contradicts what God stated in the first two books of Genesis.
Isn't this evidence for Satan? First, Satan doesn't want you to believe he exists, so people usually do not ask for proof of Satan nor does anyone even bring him up for discussion. Non-believers want proof of God when there isn't any proof for an unprovable God. When you end up discussing God with them, you find they usually blame God for something such as evil in the OT or why does he allow babies to suffer? Whatever evidence you present is not good enough. One atheist said if he opened the ground in front of him and gave him a brand new car of his choice, then he'll believe. Um... it takes faith... but you do not even get to that point with these people. Believers know why these miracles are not convincing nor life changing.
What I am getting at using in regards to Satan that he exists... because we have God created the heavens and Earth from nothing, but evolutionary thinking says it was the big bang which caused it from nothing. Before that it was the eternal universe. God created Adam and Eve as adult humans and animals as adult animals. Instead, the naysayers say, no, we had the egg before the chicken and abiogenesis, so this is how life came into existence and evolved. And so on. It turned out that everything I could think of between creation and atheist/evolutionary beliefs contradicted each other. All of these debates have come down throughout the centuries, so there could be no collaboration as to what the people who came up with the atheist/evolutionary hypothesis wrote. These writers were in different fields of work and it was written at different times. It wasn't put together in a book like the Bible, but if it was, then it was as if Satan had wrote an antiGenesis.
These contradictions goes beyond that, too. It isn't just evolution, but moral values such as not killing a fetus vs. abortion and a woman's rights, homosexuality vs. man and woman marriage, and even how the world is going to end -- global fire vs. AGW or a huge asteroid hits the earth causing a catastrophic chain reaction. It turns out that everything that God stated in the Bible is contradicted by Satan. Maybe that's just his rebellious nature and he can't help himself.
Thus, when you add all the contradictions up, is this evidence for Satan? Does this convince you that Satan is causing it? Bad stuff usually does not happen by coincidence.
Here are some things that are opposite off the top of my head.
GOD >>>>> SATAN
Said it first in the Bible over 1500 years (can not change) >>>>> Said it throughout the years (hypothesis and theories can change)
Universe >>>>> Multiverse
Creation ex nihilo (supernatural creation in 6 days) >>>>> Universe ex nihilo, i.e. big bang (defies laws of physics, infinite temperature and density, all is set up in 20 mins); Before this, it was eternal universe

The origin of birds
Toss out the "creation chart", it's garbage.
And if you really need a chart to remember 7 days you may have trouble with the Berkeley paper I linked.
Like religion and ‘god,’ ‘Satan’ is a creation of man.
Mr Bond, I did not watch the entire video of Satan and Jesus arm wrestling due to time constraints. But what I saw was middle-age paintings designed to scare the bejesus out of illiterate populations who depended on the clergy to interpret the word of God for them. So they gave visuals of pointy-tooth demons crunching on grandma like a tasty french fry and surrounded by miserable victims in pain and terror while waiting their turn. For a fee, the clergy would get grandma out of purgatory and the families paid up or feared the same fate. Also for a fee, you could get all your sins forgiven, past present and future. Martin Luther saw thru the scam evidently better than even some moderns and nailed his 95 thesis on the church door. Another breakthrough was the King James Bible that made the Word of God available to the public. One they read for themselves the church lost its iron-fisted grip.
Satan is always pictured as red, unkempt, enraged with a pointy tail and horns and bad breath of fire and brimstone. A false picture. Indeed, he must be beautiful and eloquent to convince so many that wrong is right, not an obvious snake or horror monster. And remember, his sin is not in doing wrong, but in convincing YOU to do wrong...making your bad look good..making sin look Christian and/or patriotic. And remember this too..his condemnation by God is for convincing others to do wrong, meaning WORDS MATTER.

Especially so seeing they had such excellent vantage points...There are no writings of a dinosaur bird nor a transformation of apes to humans. Even early humans would have seen it happen.
The Story of Lucifer- How Did He Fall and Become Satan? National Geographic | History Documentary

But what I saw was middle-age paintings designed to scare the bejesus out of illiterate populations who depended on the clergy to interpret the word of God for them.

He even wrote a book
Yeah, probably.
I don't believe in either one.Yeah, probably.
People are going to believe what they want with birds from dinosaurs. Just like humans from monkeys.
So, can we agree that the nature of Lucifer was to rebel against God? His sin was to disobey God and wanting to be equal to God. His sin was not tempting humans. The temptation isn't the sin. The sin is when one gives into temptation as thus they commit the sin. Not Satan.
Next, Satan was banished from heaven through lightening and this is how Satan came into our world. He became Lucifer. Satan was able to talk through a serpent (not a snake, but more like a large lizard with legs; there were no crawling snakes before that) and lie and trick Adam into giving him his dominion of Earth. Once this happened, God was upset and banished Adam and Eve from the Garden of Eden or paradise.
I think those who follow Satan and his demons end up being banished through lightening to their final destination (This is why nothing can travel as fast as the speed of light). What's the catch? Why not follow the visible light of Jesus instead? Satan masquerades as the angel of light. Even at the end, one can still be misled by Satan. When we have the power to be evil and give into Satan's temptations, it is easy to follow the wrong light.
I don't believe in either one.
