>God is a Spirit: and they that worship him must worship him in spirit and in truth. (John 4:24 KJV)

DAILY BREAD
Know this first, that there shall come scoffers in the last days who walk after their own lusts, and say, “Where is the promise of His coming? For since the fathers fell asleep, all things have continued as they were since the beginning of the creation.” For they willingly ignore that, by the word of God the heavens existed long ago, and the earth was formed standing out of the water and in the water, by which the world that then existed was flooded with water and perished. But by the same word, the heavens and the earth that now exist are being reserved for fire, kept for the Day of Judgment and destruction of the ungodly.

But, beloved, do not be ignorant of this one thing, that with the Lord one day is as a thousand years, and a thousand years as one day. The Lord is not slow concerning His promise, as some count slowness. But He is patient with us, because He does not want any to perish, but all to come to repentance. (2 Peter 3:3-9 MEV)

"Our Father dwelling in the heavenly realms, may the glory of Your Name be the center on which our lives turn.

Manifest Your kingdom-realm, and cause Your every purpose to be fulfilled on earth, just as it is fulfilled in heaven!

We acknowledge You as our Provider of all that we need each day.

Forgive us the wrongs we have done as we ourselves release forgiveness to those who have wronged us.

Rescue us every time we face tribulations and set us free from evil.

For You are the King who rules with power and glory forever!”

Amen.

Perry Stone shares visions he has received about coming tsunamis.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=oAq1NTM3Vvs

Perry Stone: "I was right outside of Charleston South Carolina and in this vision I was in a duplex and there was a woman taking pictures at the bottom, I could see the city, it was a real clean, nice city, clear day and I looked over to the right and I saw a bridge in the bridge had a big interstate sign that said Charleston and I knew I'm near Charleston South Carolina it must be across the bridge, well I didn't know there were bridges connecting there, I had no idea because I had never preached in Charleston… and all of a sudden I saw a dark cloud forming I said “oh my goodness is trouble coming and this lady is out taking pictures and I'm trying to hit the window saying get to safety, get to safety."

>In 2003 Joseph Atwill discovered that the Roman emperor Titus Flavius, working with Flavius Josephus and other authors in his patrimony wrote the New Testament. Atwill deduced this by comparing The 'Judean War' to the New Testament. The 'Judean War', written by Flavius Josephus, was originally part of the Christian Bible, and was removed around 1100 CE. 'The Roman Origin of Christianity', released as 'Caesar's Messiah' by Joseph Atwill documents the creation of the New Testament as a Roman satire devised to win over Judean dissidents by deceiving them into believing that the emperor Titus Flavius Vespasiani was Jesus! I know, it sounds strange, but that seems to be the way it was. Titus took great pleasure in calling himself "the greatest forger in history."

Discuss please.

If you've even taken the time to read your Bible, you would realize how foolish your statement is. The Old Testament prophets and New Testament Apostles also had visions.


And it will be that, afterwards, I will pour out My Spirit on all flesh; then your sons and your daughters will prophesy, your old men will dream dreams, and your young men will see visions. Even on the menservants and maidservants in those days I will pour out My Spirit. (Joel 2:28-29)

What is Truth?

God used the power and force of the Holy Spirit to put together the Bible over centuries. Back in those days of the 1st century Christians, they would receive their New Testament Scripture either though a prophet or an Apostle in their church. The Christians of that day were in the Spirit, unlike many so-called Christians today which require no faith or sacrifice.

This is all moot if you don't believe in the spiritual realm and the Words that Jesus Himself spoke and accept them as Truth. You can believe anything you want, the devil is a liar and a deceiver.


Now faith is the substance of things hoped for, the evidence of things not seen. (Hebrews 11:1)

Blessed are those who have not seen, and have yet believed. (John 20:29b)

Read historical documents from the same era, it was very common for kingdoms and tribes to write glorious exaggerations about how their god intervened in the battlefield.
The reason NT is so disconnected from OT is because Jesus was influenced by non-jewish thought during his 30 years before his ministry. This is why it's so absurd that Jesus would be portrayed as loving if this was all a part of the same framework where if you don't bow down to the god of the jews you will be tortured forever

The universe created itself because matter is never lost, it creates itself again and again because as it expands infinitely, it will warp into itself because of the conservation of matter. that's why the big "bang" was super hot, because all the matter that created the universe expanded rapidly across all directions.

The servants said unto him, Wilt thou then that we go and gather them up? 29But he said, Nay; lest while ye gather up the tares, ye root up also the wheat with them. 30Let both grow together until the harvest: and in the time of harvest I will say to the reapers, Gather ye together first the tares, and bind them in bundles to burn them: but gather the wheat into my barn.

Since it seems apt to post again:


We've had this discussion years back on /pol/. Pic related is the back and forth from anti-theist and Christian /pol/ and where it is now. It's a crude version of the cosmological argument and layers of back and forth from anti-theist dissenters and Christian proponents. Note that the discussion - and the first part of the picture - warn that we're not talking about causation in a timely sense. This isn't about a "before the Big Bang" - in fact the vast majority of cosmological arguments aren't talking about causation in-time but sustaining causation. In the discussion of sustaining causation there are two major views:

>Divine Conservation: That things ultimately do rely on something outside of itself for its own existence constantly. Details of what that is and why that is are derived from the individual arguments themselves.

>Existential Inertia: That things ultimately move and exist on their own and don't need outside causation. How that works and why that is are derived from individual arguments themselves.

I would say, as would others, that the Divine Conservation position is actually fleshed out and sound, unlike the opposite view which usually has little to no argument for itself but amount to just a denial of Divine Conservation in everything I've read on the topic.

I'll have a formal proof for it in my next post that is the argument in full detail.

Agnostic-Athiest here. How can I know that god exist ? What reason do I have to believe the biblical accounts can be trusted ? How do we know Jesus was more than just a man? If you can believe that a being capable of creating a universe appeared out of no where, why do you find it impossible that the universe couldn't come from the same origins?

This is a retelling of Aquinas' old format. To show the age.

1. Causation exists.

2. Act and Potency are classic terms we can use to explain causation: When something is in Potency it has the capacity to become something else, but is not it yet. A fertilized egg has the potency to turn into a chick, an unfertilized egg does not. When a potency is realized, it is actual. To actualize a potency is to take a property that something had in potency and make it actually inhere in the thing. The same thing, in this case, for things within an instant. While they are simultaneous they are still essentially ordered.

3. When we find an instance of causation in the world we find some potency being actualized.

4. Something that is only in potency cannot actualize anything.

5. For some potency to be actualized something actual must actualize it.

6. If A is actualized by B, then B must first be actual.

7. Either something must have actualized B from being in potency to be in actuality. Or B is either necessarily actual, having never been in potency before. ( A v B)

8. If the left disjunct “A” is true then premise 7 applies to a new cause C.

9. If disjunct “B” is true there is a “first” uncaused cause that is pure actuality.

10. If disjunct “B” is never the case then there is an infinite series of actualizations. And we can apply 7 to C, then to a new cause D, and so forth. With every being having its actuality derived from another being.

11. If “10” is the case then there can be no actualization, as every being in the series has its actuality derived from another being, but there is no being with actuality on it's own to derive the actuality from.

12. If “10” is the case there is no causation

13. There is causation ( from premise 1)

14. Premise “10” is not the case.

15. If premise 10 is not the case, then at some point in the series “9” is the case.

16. There is a first cause, which is a being of pure actuality.

the problem is that you leap from "There is a god" to "The god of the jews is the true god and everyone else is tortured forever"

This is where the retardation comes in.
There is an "ough" - an elevated ideal that all men should aspire to, but the christian ideal is not it. Christianity sees this world as a useless transit, so it makes no difference whether we destroy all beauty and deny birth control to 3rd world and fill the planet with dysgenic overpopulation (afterall, fertility is a sign of god's favor!).

There is a god, but hes not the god of the jews and i worry for your soul if you sell yourself that cheap

The heavens declare the glory of God, and the earth shows His handiwork.

By attempting to attribute the existence of the universe, and the things on the earth, to someone or something other than God, you will never believe in God because you are in open rebellion against Him.

There is a God.
This is the universe God made.
If you can't figure that out, you're well behind the 8 ball.

God credits faith as righteousness. This is why Jesus said to become like children and come to Jesus. Listen to the Words of Jesus Himself, you can start with the Book of Matthew (link in OP). People believe what they want, what we go through in life isn't much different than what Adam and Eve had to go through in the Garden if you think about it.

God is Spirit, and those that worship Him must worship in Spirit and in Truth. If you desire to join a church, then the Holy Spirit will guide you. Spiritual Christians are scattered across Christian denominations. There isn't a correct denomination on this Earth, but there is a Spiritual church that you cannot see.

You're right that God isn't an author of confusion, Satan is the one that lies and deceives. Man is stiffnecked, if you read the Bible you will see this repeatedly.

Part 3/3
Yu'll notice that the argument ended with "pure actuality" rather than "God", which is what the argument does in its full form. Aquinas' Five Ways are to get five different results from classical arguments for God, examine attributes necessary of such traits, and then, afterwords, defend rationally that all five results must be the same thing to establish a more complete image of the thing from rational deduction. Afterwords, the term "God" is applied as it's entirely synonymous with how God in understood theologically.

The picture crudely summarizes this whole argument but also goes into necessary attributes at the bottom.

From this we can see how common disagreements are tenable at all:

>God being uncreated is special pleading!

The result inherently leads to an uncreated creator and lays out what of its nature is discernible.

>Why can't it be the universe that's eternal?

The universe cannot be as the initial premise mentions motion within the universe and the end result states a lack of change inherent to it.

>You just call it God out of nowhere!

In abbreviated versions, definitely, but the basis I lay clear in my post here.

Aquinas, along with pretty much all the classical Christians understood God in a sense called Classical Theism, which would view God as a constant ground of being rather than an individual or anthropomorphic type of thing. This is the standard Apostolic Christian (Catholic/Orthodox/Coptic) view to this day. This is opposed to the view Theistic Personalism, which is God as a kind of individual and anthropomorphic to some degree. This is constantly popular between all laypeople for easy understanding and became popular between Protestant scholars since modernity. How God's attributes (omni-stuff) are understood differs between these two branches.

This is not the only bit of argumentation in this field but its an easy go-to example to introduce it. People have discussed DC/EI elsewhere too, obviously.

Many ways you can know Jesus was not just a man.

For one, He fed 10,000 people, many times, with just a few loaves and fish. Can any "just man" do that?

There's a laundry list of things Jesus did that no "just man" could do; gave the blind their sight, the deaf their hearing, the crippled their limbs restored; turned water into wine, walked on water, cured many lepers, calmed a storm, walked through people trying to kill him; raised a man from the dead after 4 days, and rose from the dead. You cannot read about Jesus and say "he's just a man; anyone could have done that."

As for the straight up existence of God? It is impossible for our universe to follow our understanding of logic. God did not simply appear out of nowhere, he was always there, no beginning, no end. The Universe itself could operate the same way you say, but why and how would it create without sentience? At the very least, I believe any logical person should support the notion that our existence is far beyond what our simple minds can understand, as at one point, there had to be an origin point which was not created by something else.

As for choosing the right denomination, it is difficult, but easy to narrow down. Just choose the one which is apostolic and has had the least human interference over the years, making it work like it was originally intended. Unfortunately, even those which are true to the origins are being influenced greatly in this day and age. I am Catholic for example, but the higher ups are corrupted and deviating from the original teachings of the Lord.

God coming down to the earth to save us from hell makes no sense. If that's true, then for millions of earth all kinds of hominid creatures suffered immensely just to survive&reproduce and for what? To be tortured forever by a jewish god.

In fact, you have to ask for specific tests depending on what range of answers you want, because none of the tests will give you the same answer.

The fatal assumptions, and there are many more, are that you know what the starting conditions were, and that everything on earth has always been as it is now.

Yes and no. Radiometric dating on smaller samples is wildly imprecise. But, you do get converging data points if you take enough samples and test them, accounting for all the conditions which you believe to be affecting your sample.

Also, yes, of course you need different dating methods based on time scale. That's like saying measuring distance is inaccurate because sometimes you need a ruler and sometimes you need calipers.

There are other methods to date things, some more accurate, some less, but I'm defending radiometric dating only.

I know that people who think they are intellectuals believe that fantasy, but no, it's nothing more than a godless fantasy. In fact, even a godless scientist would note that there are no infinite regressions possible or we would not be here right now. And even smarter one would note that there would be a loss of usable energy for each iteration, leaving us in heat death right now.

Why do you think the scientists like the catholic Big Bang so much? It's because they know this universe had a beginning, and both the scientists and Catholics put that beginning to chance, and not to God.

No, it doesn't make any sense in yours. Christianity is diametrically opposed to the truth, which is why it's falling apart.

You believe that on faith, because you have not seen them. You have reason to believe they exist; we have found many planets circling stars, and we are on a planet circling a star.

but you can believe there are more, millions more, billions more, even though you do not see them, because you have the ability to believe what you have not seen.

>tells me I couldn't possibly be a scientist because he doesn't understand science

Hey fucko, you can never prove theories. Have you ever heard of the fatal flaw of induction? It's a philosophical conundrum in which the only way to prove the validity of inductive reasoning is through inductive reasoning, meaning induction, as a whole, is circular. Science uses nothing BUT induction, therefore nothing can ever be logically guaranteed by science since it's basis is circular.

This is why philosophers hate scientists, and why scientists think philosophers are fuckwits. But it doesn't change the fact that science is fundamentally a philosophical method of investigation, and therefore it's conclusions must also be philosophically consistent.

This is why I can't "prove" that radiometric dating is accurate in the philosophical sense. I can prove that it is accurate in the basic definition of the word, but to do so would take hours, and you wouldn't even look at the stuff I wrote anyway. So instead of like to ask what problems you have with it, and address them directly.

1 Thes. 1:9-10. They tell how you turned to God from idols to serve the living and true God, and to wait for his Son from heaven, whom he raised from the dead—Jesus, who rescues us from the coming wrath.

1 Thes. 5:9 that declares, “God did not appoint us to suffer wrath but to receive salvation through our Lord Jesus Christ.”

Isaiah 26:19-21. But your dead will live; their bodies will rise. You who dwell in the dust, wake up and shout for joy. Your dew is like the dew of the morning; the earth will give birth to her dead. Go, my people, enter your rooms and shut the doors behind you; hide yourselves for a little while until his wrath has passed by. See, the LORD is coming out of his dwelling to punish the people of the earth for their sins.

Another is that the Church was purified at the cross at which time all the punishment due us was born by the Lord Himself. From that time forward the Church is considered by God to be as righteous as He is (2 Cor 5:17 & 21) The idea that the Church needs to undergo some discipline to become worthy to dwell with God is not scriptural and denies the Lord’s completed work on the cross.

And third, the stated purpose of the Great Tribulation is twofold, to purify Israel and completely destroy the unbelieving nations. (Jeremiah 30:1-11) The Church isn’t destined for either of these outcomes.

>How can I know that god exist?
Something for you to think about-

You take a group of people, put them into a dome. You teach them nothing, but only feed them beyond their need. You then decide to cut their rations down to the point that they would all only survive if they managed to share and spread the food equally among themselves.

Now these people are going to have a decision to make. They can either war with each other for dominance over the food, or they can take the moral path...divide it equally.

But see, these people haven't been taught anything, so their forced to think about what to do. So, say they chose moral choice. Now the morality is NOT coming FROM them. They're not creating morality. It hovered in their foresight as an option, as a path to adopt and walk down. They didn't create it. The moral choice was a pre-existing option for them to CHOOSE. So....Morality as we know it, the moral truth, it was made in advance for man to Choose. After it being chosen, it's then permitted to be walked on as a path of decisions fully equipped with justice and fairness. This pre-made path of charity...this is God. Or the nature of God. The same way every physical value in the universe was not created by us, either were the non physical values of consciousness. The moral truth is every bit of a sustaining law as any physical law.

As for denominations. It's proof that Christianity is not the problem, it's mans interpretation OF it. From the Torah, to the Bible, to the Quran. All you see is men struggling to find God, the Creator. The entire old testament is a testament to this struggle. Christians nowadays that are blind to their own hatred, thinking God, the creator has no capacity to allow change and therefore condemns on the spot. (Matthew 7:21)

As for Jesus Christ, it's God WITHIN Him, that moral truth WITHIN Him-- that was God in Jesus Christ. That's why God and Jesus were one. Again, just knowing the name "Jesus" isn't enough. Matthew 7:21

Depends on the research. A paper purely for research purposes only publishes data and findings. These can later be used to support hypotheses or theories and can be included in other exploratory papers.

If someone slaps you on your right cheek, turn to him the other also; if someone wants to sue you and take your tunic, let him have your cloak as well; and if someone forces you to go one mile, go with him two. 42Give to the one who asks you, and do not turn away from the one who wants to borrow from you.

This is a foolish perspective, because having the contrast of Evil sharpens Good.

Nothing is even discerned in 3 dimensions without contrast. Light itself needs to clash with something for that something to reflect it's image and be seen. Light is more than illuminating in the physical universe, it's also illuminating within consciousness. The moral truth of God itself quells anxiety and all fears. What is there to be afraid of, to the point you would rob, steal, or kill out of fear and anxiety of lack, if you KNEW the moral truth of God was not only for you, but shared WITH you. It then becomes a individual responsibility to choose the pre-made option of moral truth. In the event everyone would choose it...in the event every one would choose God..."evil" would have no room to operate.

Ephesians 6:12...Paul had it right. And if that's too fantastic of a scripture, in terms of his context, think of it as a war against degenerate pathology and degenerate ideology.

But again, nothing is even discerned in 3 dimensions without contrast, as light itself needs to clash with physical objects for them to reflect their image, and TIME creates priority for what an individual will deem as valuable. As time is limited to the physical body. Some men panic when they see how little time they have on earth...they'll proceed to exploit and take advantage of as many people as possible and chase all kinds of pleasures before they die. All out of a misplaced fear. Specifically a fear of lack in relation to something.

Now, crying about evil and claiming God isn't real because of it, is just you crying to mommy that she should rescue you at EVERY mistake you make. When the truth is, a calm sea never made a skilled sailor. As a sailor on rough waters, God is the compass, the target of navigation, in a BRIEF time frame, within a reality, where Evil is permitted to run freely. The presence of Evil creates turbulence and contrast. It can make you stronger.

Generally no, as such a power makes no sense. A rock impossible for an all powerful thing to lift is incoherent in concept. As such there is no reason to say such a power exists. Further, if we were to assume that the illogical were possible then we have lost all possibility to discuss God one way or another. I can say yes all day and you can never refute it on rational grounds.


Omnipotence is the having of all powers.
Omnipotence in relation to the two main conceptions of God is detailed here:

If you want to find a good examination of Christianity's intellectual backing I can recommend Edward Feser as a good introduction.

He has, there are plenty of eyewitness testimonies of people's limbs and fingers being restored. There are prophets living amongst us today. If you look around you will see.

And there are also many other things which Jesus did, the which, if they should be written every one, I suppose that even the world itself could not contain the books that should be written. Amen. (John 21:25)

Matthew 26.47-54
>Then they came up and laid hands on Jesus and seized him. 51And behold, one of those who were with Jesus stretched out his hand and drew his sword and struck the servantg of the high priest and cut off his ear. 52Then Jesus said to him, “Put your sword back into its place. For all who take the sword will perish by the sword. 53Do you think that I cannot appeal to my Father, and he will at once send me more than twelve legions of angels? 54But how then should the Scriptures be fulfilled, that it must be so?”

Matthew 5.5, 5.9-10
>Blessed are the meek, for they shall inherit the earth.
>Blessed are the peacemakers, for they shall be called sons a of God.
>Blessed are those who are persecuted for righteousness’ sake, for theirs is the kingdom of heaven.

John 11.25
>Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die.

Matthew 16:24-26

I have seen God heal a hole in a heart; I have seen God give the blind sight; I have seen God give the deaf hearing; I have seen God cure cancer; I have seen God make tumors disappear; I have seen God give impossible aid in preserving my life on many occasions.

Jesus can easily restore a lost limb. On several occasions He healed the withered and palsied limbs of people in Jerusalem.

He created the universe.

So for me, the question is easy. Which is more difficult? Creating the universe, or restoring a lost limb?

But then I run into asshats like you who swear that Jesus never healed an amputee. And what is your evidence?

That you have no evidence that He did.

That you believe the absence of evidence is evidence of absence.

Jesus is going to take the bodily remains of people dead for 6000 years and restore their bodies.

Do you really think He cannot regrow limbs?

If you want to be in God's Kingdom, you must be one of God's children. In order to become one of God's children, you must repent and be saved. The way you're saved is outlined in the bible, Romans 10:9-13, and consists of confessing with your mouth, that is to say out loud, that Jesus is Lord, and believe in your heart God raised Him from the dead.

Once you do that, and the Holy Spirit enters into you and resurrects you to eternal life, you are now in the Kingdom of God, forever, and you have now been imputed the righteousness of Jesus Christ.

So it's basically saying that the most important thing you can do in your life is to repent, and be saved. And once done, all of the other things you need like air, food, water, clothing, and yes, a mate, will be given to you.

God did not spare His only begotten Son, but gave Him to us to be murdered. He's not withholding anything from us.

>If anyone comes to me and does not hate his own father and mother and wife and children and brothers and sisters, yes, and even his own life, he cannot be my disciple. Whoever does not bear his own cross and come after me cannot be my disciple.


Matthew 6.19-21
>Do not lay up for yourselves treasures on earth, where moth and rust destroy and where thieves break in and steal, but lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven, where neither moth nor rust destroys and where thieves do not break in and steal. For where your treasure is, there your heart will be also.


Matthew 19.21-24
>"If you would be perfect, go, sell what you possess and give to the poor, and you will have treasure in heaven; and come, follow me.” When the young man heard this he went away sorrowful, for he had great possessions. And Jesus said to his disciples, “Truly, I say to you, only with difficulty will a rich person enter the kingdom of heaven. Again I tell you, it is easier for a camel to go through the eye of a needle than for a rich person to enter the kingdom of God.”

Luke 6.24-26
>“But woe to you who are rich, for you have received your consolation.
>“Woe to you who are full now, for you shall be hungry.
>“Woe to you who laugh now, for you shall mourn and weep.
>“Woe to you, when all people speak well of you, for so their fathers did to the false prophets.

Ooh, you mean like, .0000000000...1 seconds after the big bang? I couldn't tell you, I'm not a quantum physicist, I'm a chemical engineer.

But there are conflicting explanations of the state of the universe immediately following the big bang. Relativistic physics tells us one thing, quantum physics tells us another. Even string theory has trouble reconciling relativity and quantum mechanics in such a weird environment.

Keep in mind, nobody will ever know for sure what happened immediately after the big bang. Even physicists can only describe it through models that have been constructed through hundreds of years of study, but many doubt that these models would still be accurate in such a strange environment.

Luckily science doesn't look at something we don't know and say "God did it". It just says, let's figure this shit out.

Scientists aren't afraid when they don't know something, they're only afraid when someone says that something is true and that if you say otherwise you'll be prosecuted.

To make things clear, you are a baby Christian and you need to grow in the faith. Faith without works is dead. Repent of your sins. Pray, pray, and pray. Also, read your Bible cover-to-cover in the Spirit. It is very important to read your Bible because this is the primary way God speaks to you. I'm sure you already knew this anyways. God Bless.

The veil? A semi-permeable separation, or forgetting, between conscious and unconsious. Not knowing makes experience much more vivid and chooses more meaningful for the creator to experience itself through the illusion of separation, and the free will of each individual "spark" or soul that is part but is also a microcosm of all of unity.

What I'm saying is that if god is constrained by the laws of logic and physics he still cannot possibly be omnipotent.

If a dictator has absolute power, can he pass a law to limit his power?

If he can, then his power will be limited, and he is not absolutely powerful.

If he cannot, then he is not absolutely powerful.

Any claim of continuous omnipotence is self defeating since to be all powerful you must have the ability to limit your own power. Most theists have no problem admitting their god is not omnipotent, many Christians claim that for god to instill free will within people he had to sacrifice his omnipotence.

Your post was philosophically inconsistent. It made no sense.

Welp, time to start branching out and finding friends you do want to hang around with. Who knows, maybe you'll get a keeper gf out of nowhere just by asking for one, but that's not how it works most of the time.

Maybe not unlike trying to land a job that fits you, it takes networking and failure to keep up the search even if in the end something just kind of falls in your lap.

She said the 2016 Election would be postponed UNLESS Christians got on their knees and prayed.

Guess what Spirit-filled Christians across the U.S. were doing while you were watching your online pornography and masturbating?

Also Glenda Jackson got all the other prophecies about Reagan's assassination, etc. all correct.

I'm quite dreadful at socializing. Pretty much all of my friends came to me and wanted to be my friend rather than the other way around. Either that, or they spoke to me and we bonded over shared interests. Today, I tend to keep to myself.

Christianity is specifically - historically, biblically, doctrinally - supportive of class collaboration which is the polar opposite to Marxism's class conflict view. Further the claim that a theistic worldview spawned a naturalistic one is absurd.

Further, the rejection of private property via Marxism is explicitly denied by Christianity.

Yah, same here. It was a bit of a hurdle to actually be the one to try to initiate possible friendship. But once you get used to it the whole world changes.

Yeah perhaps, never done it before so it's going to be a tough one. Once I master that though, I might start going to the girls.

What really pushed me over the edge actually was an interest to try to help people worse off than myself. That provided an excuse for why I should be bothering them, and it's pretty wild how quickly you start bonding with total strangers who kind of got kicked out of life in one way or another and need anybody's help, even if it's not any kind of long term acquaintance.

>thinks that radiometric dating in our solar system started at the big bang

Wow, a stupendous display of stupidity. Our solar system is not a remnant of the big bang, but is instead a 2nd or 3rd generation solar system created from the coalesced nebula of a supernova.

If we were a first generation solar system, there would be no elements in our solar system except for hydrogen and helium. We instead find all the higher elements as well, which can only be created through quantum tunneling allowed by the immense pressure created by a supernova.

But please, don't let me stop your fun

Projecting now, are we.

My argument is a simple one, so even you should be able to grasp it. While it is true the creation of the universe is in violation of one of the laws of physics (matter cannot be created nor destroyed) the existence of a supernatural higher power (that which men call god) would violate several other laws of the universe, including sentience forming suddenly, a being have the power to create with said thought, and even the physics of the flow of time itself, depending on how literally you take the Bible.
Therefore, the odds of the universe spontaneously coming into existence on its own (without a god) is more likely and reasonable than the classical definition of God with his reality warping and infinite knowledge to have come into existence and also simultaneously also already existed in violation of several laws of physics, only to then create the universe.

>But your using the wrong definition of God.
I am not. This theory works with many definitions of God until you reach the point where "God" is essentially the Big Bang, at which point there is no difference between the two theories. Show me an example otherwise and I will show you a lie.
There comes a point where the concept, the definition of God is so far removed from the scriptures that it no longer counts as Christianity or even religion.
>But you have no evidence.
Neither do you, but that's not the battlefield you seek to fight on. You fight on the battlefield of what makes sense to your mind, no matter how factually incorrect it is. I am merely taking the fight you your level, attacking you in the only place you are vulnerable, showing you for what you truly are.
Remember, Atheism has been around for longer than you think. You don't really think science is the only avenue for it's conclusion, do you?

That's kind of you. Once you start there, you begin bonding with all types of strangers. It ends up with people who are so confident talking to others that they end up saying "Hello" to you randomly on the street or the bus etc. I'm quite the quiet type though, and tend to enjoy my own company so we'll see how it plays out.
>>
>>131789541
It is.

After my death, I will still live in my descendants, because they will have my genes,

This is the true way to "live after death", not some fairytalish heaven which doesn't exist.

Prove me wrong.

Then go to a graveyard where your ancestors lay, do you feel any connection with the dead?
