What about punishment? Punishment is one of GOD's major characteristics. Punishment is the application of evil to get revenge on someone for doing evil.
State sanctioned revenge, is what we call justice. Originally it is what probably stoped a cycle of revenge killing. If the King killed your...
God made the wild animals according to their kinds, the livestock according to their kinds, and all the creatures that move along the ground according to their kinds.
And God saw that it was good.<.............
Lions eat their own young, chimps hunt and kill other primates, killer whales play...
Personally I think this is an ungodly attitude , we are supposed to be here for GOD , and most of you religious types keep asking him for things. Forgiveness, wisdom, health for your sick gold fish. What about what GOD wants?
Ever wonder why he does not want you to invade Jerusalem any more...
Which is why religion is so attractive to people because it allows them not only to blame the darkness inside themselves on an outside entity, they get to pass all responsibility for dealing with it on to their father that lives in heaven.
I think the problem here is equating darkness and light with good and evil, what we are actually asking is where did evil come from? It is more like GOD has part of it that is evil, corrupted, like gold ore that has pieces of dirt and Clay bound up in it.
That which is pure can be described as...
When you think about, eating the apple of knowledge of good and evil, falling from a state of innocence, refers to gaining self awareness.
The serpant symbology is found all over the world and I think it has something to do with that part of us that can perceive the unseen and unknown. The...
The obvious answer is a black hole. But if you want to talk about an imaginary magical beardy bloke that lives in the sky. God is everything, including all knowledge , all the time. He created everything. When there was nothing , just god, what did god make things out of? Well there is nothing...
In science theories sort of maybe describe reality but they do not prove it. You need to have faith in theories. However because they give us a model that we can use to attempt to understand "our" world, they are still useful. God/s, religion, rituals, scriptures are all theoretical and because...
So much dogma involved in the answers to this question. Just keep it simple, do Mormons believe that there was a Jesus Christ and does said Jesus Christ play a central role in their spirituality?
As apposed to say Muslims who depreciate Jesus to the level of one of many Prophets.
In...
We play all parts, deliberately. We are God and Satan. You could say God is Satan. The central premise of Christianity is, here is what God wants you to do, if you don't do it you are going to a lake of fire to burn and suffer for ever.....but God loves you. This is about control and self delusion.
"How can we know?"
Know what? I can't even be sure I exist.
"Lets say the bible...."
No lets not. The bible was hobbled together over the course of more then 400 years and many christian sects even to this day have different ideas about which books in the bible are considered canon. Much of...
Finally a question I can sort of answer. Dinosaurs did come from reptiles but then evolved into raptors that then evolved into KFC. Which was more popular to eat and easier to raise in coops that lizards. So that's why we didn't eat all the lizards.
Also the world was smaller then as Nibaru had...
The idea that humans evolved with might is right instincts is a lie for children. We are not lions, we are more like Bonobos, who have a loving and cooperative society. Complete with love indoctrination passing from mother to child.
All our darkness comes from the internal conflict between...
I guess the point of the is earth sentient idea is that even if it isn't, she is our creator, she feeds us, clothes us and provides clean air to breathe, our mother in every sense of the word. Earth is our only god, yet we invent invisible men that live in the sky.
Wow you guys sound realy smart using big words, talking about philosophy and stuff. I'm just a noob but when I see objectivity it either means something is in a state of being true or fair. Is rape fair...hmm nope. Is the idea that rape is OK true. Well how many versions of truth are there...
