I understand and appreciate your point and agree (yes I get your tone).

Yeah, they always say our god says we have to kill you and take all your stuff because god is infinite and loving see we must kill you for eating pork or something our god told us to kill for in his infinite wisdom, yeah that's. So sorry but you'll have to die.

God is love.

Historically, people have started wars, over religious beliefs, natural resources, territories, economical gain, heck even sports. It's people who start wars not religions! Downvoted for stating a true statement lol this site is hilarious.

Firstly, the flood matter. He gave everyone on earth a way out. Noah toiled everyone “get on the boat!!” And they thought he was the prehistorical equivalent of a doomsday preppier, and ignored him. They could have escaped if they wanted too. Besides, there was a whole angel plot going on, and several other things. Secondly, Egypt. Once again, they were enslaving the immigrants and god gave their leader over 10 chances before he sent the angel of death. Also, he literally punished pharaoh for slavery, which completely flies against your earlier evidence against God being pro-slavery. Besides, in the Hebrew context, slavery was much different than what most people think as slaves. None of your points hold up if you use your brain for a second. Maybe read the Bible and not get your “information” from that guy in a car from twitter.

So, he gave the babies, puppies, and kittens a way out? How? Why not just make the bad people disappear? Why not come down and teach the bad people to be good? Is he evil? I know some teachers that have helped bad children and people. Are they more competent than god? I would have to say yes. Instead god chose to kill every innocent puppy, kitten, and baby via torturous drowning. If pharaoh was wrong, why not punish pharaoh himself? Why couldn’t god teach pharaoh to be good? You are making excuses for baby murder and genocide. You are a disgusting individual Dalton. Seek mental help.

Freewill, without freewill we wouldnt know grace, people make choices God doesn't cause these things, hebgave mankind the freewill to do with as they please, man is inherently evil. The laws of moses really need to be examined in context, not only historically but also in the divine plan, a BP post is not sufficient to cover an entire theological subject, and picking and choosing sections of a book and saying look this is your God without context is unfair, just as it is unfair to blatantly hate someone bc they dont believe in the same God, or a god at all.

Dale, do you believe in heaven? In heaven will everything be all good? Will you have free will in heaven? So god can make a place that is all-good and there is free will? Why not just do that on earth? Your free will argument just completely falls apart. God gave Paul the Damascus Road experience. That violated his free will. God committed genocide and drowned every baby on earth in the flood story. That violated their free will. God had 2 bears rip apart and massacre a group of children for making fun of a bald man. That violated their free will. Lot's wife looked back and god and his destruction and god turned her into a pillar of salt. That violated her free will. Your argument is so extremely stupid. Man is not inherently evil. There are many good people. The actions of the god of the bible are very evil. Don't be dumb.

It was an experiment of faith. Firstly, the ark was the way out. Anyone could have gotten on. Secondly, you just insulted an autistic child. Don’t care, thirdly, if pharaoh didn’t learn after 10 times, nothing would convince him.

Nothing would convince the pharaoh? So god is not all-powerful and he is not very intelligent. The most intelligent being in the world would be able to explain and teach anything to anyone clearly. Again you are ignoring the baby murders. Why didn’t god just punish the pharaoh directly? Grow up and stop making excuses for a fictional baby murderer. Stop making excuses for a being worse than hitler.

Dalton, you stupid, evil prick. You are saying that every baby on earth had the comprehension and ability to crawl all the way to a single boat in the Middle East? Every puppy and every kitten had the comprehension and ability to get on 1 boat in the Middle East? Every Australian animal had the comprehension and ability to swim across a vast ocean and get on 1 boat in the Middle East? You are making excuses for baby murder and genocide! That is sickening. Seek mental help.

Are you up voting your own post to make it seem like people agree with you?!

Yes because that's what the baby jesus would want.

Your mom is upvoting my posts.

Dalton, alot of what you're saying is true but when discussing Pharoah's heart I have a hard time with this too as the bible says God hardened his heart.

You just claimed that there is free will. Now you are claiming god hardened pharoah's heart. You need to make up your mind. Is there free will or not?

Oh man, these are hard questions to axe a man-0-god. Now they'll he'll get all confused and go on a murderous trip somewhere and call it a Crusade for god and the baby jebus, or some such thing. god is love

"Also, he literally punished pharaoh for slavery" and then all slavery stopped forever , and they all shared their toys on the playground.

I mean, if that’s what you think...hooray for you? Yaaaay, you’re bashing people for fun?

If you went to a terrorist and tried to stop them with logic and reasoning, would I say that you are bashing people for fun? If you were bashing nazi believers, would I say that you are just doing it for fun?

Are you comparing Dalton to Hitler and terrorists? I dont see anything in any of his posts that indicate he condones any of the sort you are being unreasonable.

Dale, many of the nazis were christians, and many catholic high priests supported the nazis. Don't be ignorant of history. Many terrorists are also religious, like Dalton. They share many of the same views. The god of the bible was a terrorist and you and dalton are making excuses for him and supporting him.

Er 1 don't tell people what to believe in and 2 you have no idea if I am atheist or what.

Yes

Well in a post about Muslim women, you said that you wear a veil. I’m using reasoning to guess that you are Muslim. My comment would seem to apply if my assumption is true.

Yes, I do wear the hijab. But I never stated my religion (which is not Islam, actually) - I do, however, understand what you meant and apologise for being rude.

just a question...why do you wear hijab if you aren't muslim? no disrespect intended, I just have never met someone who wears it who is not muslim

Shut up if you are not a Christian than you don't have to go around saying stuff like "oHhHhHhH yOuR rElIgIoN iS wRoNg"

But, it is provably , demonstratively wrong. Besides being wrong it is supremely evil. If we only have a finite amount of time on this earth guaranteed to us, then people are wasting their life worried about offending a sky wizard. I would love it if people didn’t waste the one life they have. I’m seriously trying to help people.

It isn’t wrong though? There is so much evidence for the chrisatian truth. And if you are talking about wasting your time, you are currently trying to disprove a religion on bored panda. Stop picking and choosing your evidence

Is evolution true? Science says it is. Then we had common evolutionary ancestors. Which means the Adam and Eve creation myth is fantasy. No Adam and Eve means no original sin and no need for the flood and no need for jesus. The bible claims a worldwide flood happened past the peaks of the highest mountains. Every piece of scientific evidence contradicts that claim. The bible is false. Jesus says that you can actually move mountains with prayer alone and faith the size of a mustard seed. That’s an easily testable claim that fails. Go move a mountain with prayer, jack-a-s-s.

Shut up. You are the disgusting, evil and repulsive one, here.

Sister Baboon, Does the bible not endorse slavery? Did god not murder babies? I think it is all fictional. But, it is deeply disgusting what people make excuses for. Can you please tell me specifically what I said that was disgusting, evil or repulsive? Pointing out atrocities and trying to stop evil seems righteous to me.

The bible does not say that slavery is good, read the bible before you comment

Maybe don’t be lazy and read the bible for yourself. Exodus 21:20-21 says that you can beat your slave with a rod into a coma and it’s ok as long as the slave gets up in a couple of days. The bible condones slavery over and over. Can you please tell me one thing in the bible that is against slavery?

I can tell you. Two words, historical context. The Bible is translated from many languages. The word slave actually has two meanings in the Bible. One is the common conception of slavery, but the other, poorly translated as Slave, is more of a bond servant. As in they work on their own accord or work as punishment for not paying off debt. Like in animal crossing. Secondly, God straight up tells masters how to treat their bondservants. And he even rescues the Israelites over slavery. He makes laws on bondsevants , which he would not have done if he thought it was good. The government doesn’t put laws on good things, like being too healthy. If God put laws on bondservants, it was to limit the cruelty they might experience. As for the rod, this was a common punishment for fathers to give to their children back in that point in history. So, there you go. All you needed was historical context.

Would you be my bond servant under the rules of exodus? You are making excuses for a deep, deep evil. Should people be allowed to beat their bond servants with a rod into a coma? In the bible god commands people not to eat shellfish, not to wear clothing of mixed fabrics, to not do any work on the sabbath (even moving sticks) and the punishment for that is death. Should we kill firemen for working on the sabbath? That’s f-u-c-king evil. If god can command all of those things, he could have and should have commanded to not own human beings as property! F-u-c-k your lame excuses Dalton. F-u-c-k your evil. You are making excuses for slavery and a being way worse than hitler.

Bondserveants were essentially sentenced to this as punishment for non payment, also every seven years their debt was to be forgiven, dont just spout out a bunch of fullishness without knowing context, not everything in the bible can be easily explained in a post.

Dale, you honestly think a suitable punishment for non-payment is slavery? You think that makes it morally ok to beat someone with rod into a coma and it's ok as long they get up in a couple days? You are a sick, loathsome, abhorrent individual. Please seek mental help. You shouldn't be in society with these views.

Dale, the bible says that you can take your slaves from the heathens that surround you [Leviticus 25:44]. You don't have to lie. Isn't lying a sin? https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=TDL0FttPX-4

And don't forget that beating them half to death is cool with god the all loving.
