Petition Against God

[Jaymes]

This thread is about a petition against the Christian God. What is the petition for? It's so the Christian God will give anybody who is or becomes Christian superpowers, like he gave to Moses and Jesus. Are you pro-superpowers? Show your support.

Technically, wouldn't he be the Jewish God when he gave Moses 'superpowers'? And Jesus, if you wanted to get into semantics...

Well, Christians believe in Moses too... and Jews don't believe Jesus was the son of God. That's one of the reasons why they killed him.

He couldn't be the Christian God before Jesus was born... :areyoucra

That's right, and it makes your thread antisemantic.:slap: :biglaugh:

You can cause a blind man to see instantly?

Well, they fixed stevie wonder didn't they?

 

[austheist]

Yes, it's quite simple really. There are several ways. Which would you prefer?

Huh? Last time I saw the dude he was still wearin' some chillin sunglasses...

Is he faking it now?

Yep, I bet 2000 years ago many persons who weren't completely blind thought they where blind, now days many eye problems can be corrected by cirurgy. The number of people who make "miracles" is proportional to our knowledge of the universe, now days there are no mages or "miracle" makers because, well, we know too much.

 

[Bishka]

Try me. I don't think my belief is irrational, so I don't see anyway that you could prove to me that it is. Go ahead. Many people have tried and I still believe in God, and if that makes me stupid, so be it.

Hey Austheist....a helpful hint brutha....push the QUOTE button at the bottom of the post you want to reference...it'll make it easier to keep track of what question you are answering.

Yeah, ok, I'm convinced!

He could, is all part of his master plan... :bonk:

 

[austheist]

You just admitted that if your belief in God was irrational, then you would believe anyways. So why should I even prove it to you that it is? I will if anybody else wants me to.

 

[Buttercup]

I want to hear about what you would do with your superpowers first!

 

[austheist]

That's not what we're talking about right now. The point is that it would be proof that God existed if God gave them to me. But, since there is no proof, I am left to remain atheist.

 

[Buttercup]

Oh brother....switch and bait us why don'tcha! I came here for the superpowers!

 

[mingmty]

I want to hear about what you would do with your superpowers first!

I wouldn't work or study anymore and would move to a forest and live from stones turning into food... Obviously I would take my girlfriend with me :hug:

 

[austheist]

Me TOO! All you have to do is sign the petition against God! Then, if we get a majority vote....well, sign it.

 

[Buttercup]

There will NEVER be proof that God exists....where would free will and choice come into the equation then? That's his plan buddy....It's all about you choosing to believe. In my mind, there is enough empirical evidence to prove God exists....the rest is faith.

So, if you're looking for someone to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that God exists before you believe in him.....it will never happen. Just accept that fact.

 

[austheist]

We'll see what happens.

 

[mingmty]

Or would make the miracle of my girlfriend letting me have many more girlfriends at the same time...

 

[austheist]

So, you admit that it is irrational to believe in God?
