"to believe a God created the intricacies of nature is to believe this God created all kinds of evil, poisons, diseases & dangers. This would be a very cruel God"
No ddzx,that is how you see it and twist it,putting words in peoples mouths again
In genesis,after god created the world he saw that it was very good
It is clearly stated in the bible, god is not responsible for the entrance of sin death and dying.
This is a battle between good and evil,you blame God but you are willingly ignorant, and you cherry pick what quotes suit your own bias on this subject matter.
God said,"in the day that you sin,you shall surely die"
Satan said,'did god really say that?he just dosent want you to become knowledgeable like him,and you will become like him"
This is the basis to the battle of beliefs,Christianity says once your dead,your dead,sin=death
The eastern philosophys, that you and many new agers,pagans,etc teach, as satan taught the 1st lie ever told,the everlasting immortality of the soul,you do not die
The soul is immortal,eternal,you do not die
Its imperative to have these beliefs ingrained in society for the religous part of the new world order we are about to have to face as humanity,we are currently in the financial crissis they have created
This is why our Christianity is being attacked by these beliefs
Dont keep quoting a book you have no regard for,misrepresent to suit your own bias,and hate the culture it came from,and everything it stands for
1corinthians 15 24
then comes the end,when he shall have delivered up the kingdom to God,even the father,when he shall have put down all rule and all authority and power
for he shall reign till he has put all enemies under his feet
the last enemy that shall be destroyed is death.
also
revealation 21.4 and god shall wipe way the tears from their eyes,and there shall be no more death,neither sorrow,nor crying,neither shall there be any pain,for the former things have passed away
God did not create evil etc,that is your strawman once again
You tear down pagan christian thought,the strawman
Framing your own arguments and proceeding to tear them down,because the questions you continually ask,are asked through a racial bias,ignorance,and the need for an arguement not discussion
As noted by many on hc,you ask all the questions, so as to control the conversation,you answer nothing in return,but we have come to expect that
"I think to rejoice in creation must come from living a very comfortable materialistic life and possibly a childhood playing X-Box or something. There must be some kind of blindness to the inherent sufferings & challenges of life."
LOL no ddzx,i dont think you do think, to be honest,whats x box?
no i rejoice in creation because im a glass half full kind of person,not half empty like oneself
i see the intricacies of life around me,the intelligence and design in life
im glad i see a creator,a personal spiritual being who knows me and helps through out my failings and successes.
I feel sorry for you who thinks his ancestors came from a primordial slime pit,who shared a common ancestor with monkeys so he can act and treat people who dont see things the same as him with total disrespect,because in the scheme of your belief,it matters little cause you will just be reincarnated and go on anyway
But thankyou for telling me what i believe and how i feel anyway mate,its good of you to do that
