    ...............JEHOVAH!.................

    Long before that. The name was removed by the Jewish scribes, the sopherim.

    Churchianity? If you mean apostate Christianity, it was removed before Churchianity existed.

    A few questions for Christians and others interested in commenting

    Yes. I know that it was a politically motivated apostacy perpetuated by a pagan non-Christian. Of course. 2 Timothy 4:3-4 For the teachings of Christ it is opposed, preferring the pagan mythologies of the past and sociopolitical control. In other words, yes, the council is helpful for the...

    The problem is evil solved?

    How come heat isn't the absence of cold?

    After death

    For a very short while, apparently.

    Why do the Christians accuse Jesus of writing the NT Bible?

    The Bible, Genesis through Revelation, is about the vindication of Jehovah God's name through the ransom sacrifice of Christ (messiah) Jesus. So, after a brief prologue (Genesis 1:1-3:14) giving the account of the creation of the physical heavens and everything in them and the sin of man...

    The problem is evil solved?

    The actual truth according to God? The Bible rather than what many do claim.

    The problem is evil solved?

    Why would they? Science contradicts science. That's part of what science does. Science doesn't contradict God and God doesn't contradict science. Then where do you pick your data and what is the difference between picking cherries or anything else, like data. Selection.

    The problem is evil solved?

    That's true to some extent - for both. Ultimately that is the case, but it's much easier for the unbeliever to grapple with the alleged possibility of whatever you want to call God than it is for the believer to grapple with the alleged impossibility of the same. No one ever wins outside of...

    The problem is evil solved?

    Is that decision, then, or is it not, evil? To the OP. In other words if you go into a forum to debate truths and the moderators think those truths evil and separate you from the forum, is that evil to you and to them?

    The problem is evil solved?

    Never? According to who and on what basis. See, what believers tend to do in a discussion like this is measure from their own perception which negates all other possibilities. Perspective is required in order to have a balanced perception. The unbeliever will always win this sort of debate...

    The problem is evil solved?

    All right, then, if a moderator decided that the discussion of your OP is evil, would it still be evil even though you didn't think so?

    The problem is evil solved?

    Nothing? Especially? Not exclusively? Proved? Believed?

    The problem is evil solved?

    Okay. That's a good strategy for thread participation. I like it anyway. Makes it a great deal easier for me. In other words - subjective? Just for fun here, not having a clue to what, I'm going to take up a contrary position and say - no.

    So? Isaiah 45:7 Why is your experience more relevant than anyone else's? Because you started the thread?

    The problem is evil solved?

    Very good. Lots of different words are translated from the Hebrew ra, evil only being one of them, but it is subjective. Telling a child not to play in the street may be evil to a child. Disciplining the child for disobedience is bad, gloomy or calamitous to the child, and it may be unfortunate...

    The problem is evil solved?

    How cold is cold. 48°? Celius or Fahrenheit? May be cold to you but not to me. 48° may be cold but -48° is colder. How did you measure it? On a calibrated instrument? What is heat? Friction? What is the room temperature - cold or warm? If the room is cold to you does that mean an absence of...

    The problem is evil solved?

    I don't see where that would be a stumbling block, it would be confirmation. The problem needs to be defined. What is God and what is evil? You're dealing with very subjective concepts/constructs. God and evil are subjective.

    What is Your Disbelief?

    Belief, faith, trust, means you don't know, you think something is true, will prove to be true, or will occur in an expected manner. Science, for example, couldn't proceed without it. Perhaps with skeptical oriented people lack of belief tends to be not so much a disbelief in the immaterial, but...
