Zone1 The Handmaid's Tale: A Perversion of Christianity

[TNHarley]

"someone" is not God: all loving, all knowing, all present, etc.

And He does it because it was worth it, and He is in charge of all eternal destiny.

I know you don't like it. I can't imagine that God is too concerned about that.

You said creator.
You dont think he is? Hasnt he killed millions upon millions upon millions because of that?

 

[TNHarley]

Again, just restating your dumb comment does not make it true.

Your first problem is: how did anything come out of nothing

Go

Im not the one that brought it up. I am just telling you you dont understand the theory of evolution.

Spoiler alert: He is going to "kill" everyone.

But the flaw is this: just because the Bible RECORDS it doesn't mean the Bible ENDORSES it. Nowhere did God give this decree, which is adultery. The idea stemmed solely from desperate women. Once the deed is done, God can use sinful people and even sinful actions to His end. But He did not either command or endorse the sin.

So Abraham was an adulterer?

Great. Then explain how the first something came out of NOTHING.

Don't dodge now; I'm sure it's very simple. Right?

Ok, we will just ignore what I said.

Hek, IDK. Thats are lots of theories on that. Evolution isnt one of them, however. Evolution explains how life diversifies, after it already exists.

So there is no explanation. You take it on faith--faith in something from nothing. Got it!

Take what on faith?
And im sure there is an explanation, we just havent found it yet. Science doesnt see a volcano erupt, and blame gods wrath. It waits for answers.
You should google the miller-urey experiment. Its crazy. It showed that basic molecules can come from specific conditions. Like how amino acids formed from conditions similar to early earth. And they get that info from meteorites, chemical signatures in rocks, stromatolites etc.

I said punishment is. Like how your cheating wife and the other man should be killed.

And I said take it up with the Jews. Jesus Christ taught something else. Do you have a problem with what Jesus taught?

The flesh is of no avail. ~Jesus

Long chains of organic molecules in the exact right order folding themselves in the exact right sequence? No one has ever seen it. Not without copious amounts of genetic instructions that is. And by copious I mean shitloads of information, an absurdly ridiculous amount of information.

 

[ding]

Yeah, and its barbaric.

Was Jesus barbaric? Was forgiving mankind barbaric?

 

[Hafar1014]

Was Jesus barbaric? Was forgiving mankind barbaric?

Forgiving for a sin that never existed under the threat of hell? Yes thats barbaric.
How can the acquiring of morals be a sin. Can you explain that

I didnt claim any of the sort. What the experiment did show was that basic ingredients for life can form naturally.

 

[TNHarley]

"worship me or burn for eternity" yea pretty barbaric.

 

[ding]

How did an experiment that failed to produce life show that life formed from inanimate matter?

 

[Meriweather]

"worship me or burn for eternity" yea pretty barbaric.

Could it be you are (in some way) burning now? Could it be by following The Way Jesus taught would bring peace and joy instead of that burning? (That is what worship is: Whatever you have given first place in your own life.)

 

[ding]

Forgiving for a sin that never existed under the threat of hell? Yes thats barbaric.

It is baptism that cleanses original sin. Christ's sacrifice forgives all other sins.

How can the acquiring of morals be a sin. Can you explain that

You don't need to rob, bear false witness, murder or cheat on a spouse to know those things are wrong. In other words, you don't need to sin to acquire morals. You are born with an innate sense of right and wrong.

 

[ding]

"worship me or burn for eternity" yea pretty barbaric.

That's not my belief. That's YOUR belief.
