    The God of OT vs the God of NT? Are they the same?

    The concept of awful nasty babies. You can't possibly be serious, sorry. Well, yes, that's a problem. If God's judgement is that many people are no better than brute beasts made to be taken and destroyed, that's a sure sign of a very evil or pathological God. That's kind of my point. Of...

    The God of OT vs the God of NT? Are they the same?

    Great. You aren't my enemy. Not following you .. sorry. The same way that individuals is inspired... oh.. you want to define what your god is. Ok.. Out of nowhere is this idea, you say. Hmm seems to me that you don't happen to be on a distant planet where nobody has every thought or written...

    The God of OT vs the God of NT? Are they the same?

    Kinda almost like a sort of a genocide..no? Genocide is the systematic destruction of all or a significant part of a racial, ethnic, religious or national group. Well-known examples of genocide include the Holocaust, the Armenian Genocide, and more recently the Rwandan Genocide and the Bosnian...

    What is magic?

    NFI naturalism seems to be defined as what it's NOT.. What a surprise THAT is.. here goes the paste proceedure.... Naturalism (philosophy) is any of several philosophical stances wherein all phenomena or hypotheses commonly labeled as supernatural are either false or not inherently different...

    Are you superstitious?

    I was asking for your definition, if, as you say you ARE superstitious, and keep your definition of superstition under your hat, and we have reason to think your definition is peculiar to yourself, then, it's no use to us at all in helping us understand what you mean by it. Don't you...

    With suffering and hell, how can God be thought of as fair or kind.

    I don't know if it's "dictating" as much as being confused about how words work. We can only understand what we can. We have concepts, such as "perfection" and we try our best to make that work for us. We don't know what something "perfect" might actually look like, or if anything at all...

    The God of OT vs the God of NT? Are they the same?

    Well, it now looks as if your study of the facts puts you in disagreement with most of the world's scientists. The phrase "missing link" has been used extensively in popular writings on human evolution to refer to a perceived gap in the hominid evolutionary record. It is most commonly used...

    The God of OT vs the God of NT? Are they the same?

    Odd definition you have of genocide. The flood story ISN'T about your god drowning everyone but a very select few individuals? I thought that it was. How odd of me to mistake the whole gist of the story. Earth full of nasty humans.. get a guy to build a boat, fill it with a bunch of animals, and...

    You say to say hi.. atheist here

    Point taken, thanks. I'm currently working on it.. don't be shy to criticize me .. that's what I'm here for, so yeah, thanks. I went ahead and deleted some of my more.. ah.. contentious comments. Learning is a *****.

    What is magic?

    Yeah, ok.. I'm not too clear about the distinction. pity you chose not to clarify this for me.... hmmm but that's not at all my claim I don't claim that only the physical exists.. My claim is more about the epistemology of reality. I say that I can't KNOW anything else BUT what we call nature...

    With suffering and hell, how can God be thought of as fair or kind.

    Hi, Deidre.. interesting take on the problem of evil. It's a toughie for sure. What I would add, a bit off topic, is that if a PERFECT god exists.. then why would it have any thoughts or desires or emotions or any characteristics that would AFFECT it's perfection. It seems to me that I keep...

    The God of OT vs the God of NT? Are they the same?

    Maybe way more than mere thousands.. it's more likely billions., but why quibble, i generally agree that my brain has to function the way that human brains function in order for my brain to function the way that human brains function. Thank you for that penetrating exploration of the perfectly...

    Yup, for sure, was fun. Let's continue.:mad:

    With suffering and hell, how can God be thought of as fair or kind.

    True. This is true of human gardeners. And it is only possibly true of any proposed entity for which you have no evidence. This makes your position very improbable, due to the factor of probability being multiplied by two. One possibility that has not evidence is supporting another possibility...

    You say to say hi.. atheist here

    Yes, I was angry for other reasons, and I went way over board.. I don't even know what Yeager might have MEANT by "open-minded Christian"... I can't see his comment right now, I deleted my raging response, and I can't even remember the conversation, and I forgot to pay my rent. I've been under...

    What is magic?

    Sounds like a great topic to me. I'm an atheist, and I'm supposed to be a naturalist as well, by some accounts. In the past, I would have just assumed that was true. But these days, I look words up to find out what is meant. I got this quickly from Wikipedia, and I think it's a pretty common...

    What is magic?

    Oh,It's getting obvious that nothing will get you to question your beliefs and experiences. I am supposed to take whatever you say as true. Well, sorry. The reason I do mock is because you surely seem to believe, but when you try to prove that your belief is in any way justified or evidenced...

    I will just ignore your stupidity in the future. Don't bother saying anything to me. Hat. yeah...

    I will just ignore your stupidity in the future. Don't bother saying anything to me. Hat. yeah, right. I think of you as a hypocrite, now. I don't have anything to DO with hypocrites, thanks but no thanks. Enjoy your debates with the others in here.
