    village girl, why do -you- not step in and help. or tec.

    the sceptics mean no harm when exposing sham miracles (or stories of)

    for harm comes ultimately from those that ignore, or are unaware of reality,

    like jumping off Capilano hanging bridge and expecting no harm.

    Why Does this super smart Bible God not perform miracles ?

    Because he is just like every other god created throughout human history in that he was created out imaginative

    ignorance.

    Put it another way if you could convince a group of people that there is a great god who is responsible for all that

    we as human experience good and bad, you would probably create your own assuming power yourself, if in some

    way you were connected to this great god.

    Study human history in the many civilizations from the past and even the present and you'll find this to be so.

    ie... the WTS/JWS religion just to name one.

    Thousands of gods past and present, mostly created from human ignorance of the world we live in.

    Y'know, God was created for people like confusedandalone. So I think his questions are totally valid - yeah, why not reveal Yourself and Your requirements so that the average man can understand? The more complex and esoteric the explanations, the further from the truth that the average schmoe would grasp.

    The LIE-ble itself is a miracle. That is, designed to enslave the whole human race. That unholy book of lies consistently damns people that do things to build up while exhalting parasites. It condemns people that are gay or bisexual, or wish more than one sex partner. It makes women into scum. It urges people to give up their material well being. It scares people from looking into how their souls are actually made, and renders people helpless and dependent on their false god Jesus (and joke-hova, who does nothing). It condones slavery and torture. It condones various forms of child abuse, not the least of which being scaring them into submission.

    The real miracle is that, given that people are supposed to be free thinking, that this book survives. It is the miracle of joke-hova. It is part of the miracle of tyranny and slavery for the whole human race, and total destruction of all that's fun. And yet, people believe that since the LIE-ble condones what is effectively communism, that communism is the way of righteousness and that liberty and freedom are wicked. Then joke-hova, using this miracle of tyranny, renders the human existence into mindless drudgery, taking all the fun right out of it.

    Anybody who teaches that god heals should go to a child cancer ward and apologise to everybody.

    Well cofty why would they need to apologize?

    Remember:

    God does not put upon us more than we can bear...

    or

    Maybe their parents aren't saved so he can't step in

    or

    Maybe eventhough they go to church everyday and believe he is allowing it to happen to test their faith

    Ultimately they arent healed because either the parents or the kids do not have faith. If they had faith the size of a mustard grain the could move Mt. Everest to the Sahara desert - let alone cure a little leukemia

    Well let us be honest. WHen someone defending Watchtower beliefs is here they get the same treatment but not many poeple get upset about it.

    When atheist and agnostics voice their opinion it hits people to the core and makes them think and they do not like it. Believers tend to be just as dogmatic if not wworse its just that they mask their vitirol behind scriptures that seem comforting and friendly.
