You might point out to the child that we can measure electricity and gravity and then ask the question, "Can we measure God?"
Perhaps ask them how they tell the difference between real gods and false gods?

Critical thinking
by Freedom rocks inwhat kind of questions would you use to get a child'scritical thinking skills going from a young age with regards to the bible/god/jesus/anything to do with the religion??.
my most hated answer jws gave to people when they said you can't see god so how do you know he exists was "well you can't see electricity or gravity but you know they exist".
sorry but that doesn't prove god exists.

Humans only survive for 3-5 days without water...
by purrpurr inand yet today's watchtower and indeed the bible condemns the israelites for moaning about having no water!
it's never occurred to me how unjust this is!
and how could a so called loving god not provide a basic human need?!.

This once again shows what a weak second tier desert god Yaweh is. He's a total failure. He couldn't stop his people from being enslaved by the Egyptians. Couldn't negotiate their release from Pharaoh despite supposedly being omnipotent and sending plagues. Couldn't get the "promised land" cleared of inhabitants before the Israelites scouted the land. And completely forgot to give the Israelite water for days on end.
Yaweh really needs to get out of the God business. He's not a leader. He's a incompetent bumbling oaf that gets all those who follow him killed (if he doesn't kill them himself).

I’ve never read that the United Nations is Babylon the great in the revelation book.
I would love to have a quote.-Doubter
The UN is the beast that Babylon the Great rides. Here's a quote from the Revelation book:
The angel further explains to John: “And the wild beast that was but is not, it is also itself an eighth king, but springs from the seven, and it goes off into destruction.” (Revelation 17:11) The symbolic scarlet-colored wild beast “springs from” the seven heads; that is, it is born from, or owes its existence to, those heads of the original “wild beast . . . out of the sea,” of which the scarlet-colored wild beast is an image. In what way? Well, in 1919 the Anglo-American power was the ascendant head. The previous six heads had fallen, and the position of dominant world power had passed to this dual head and was now centered in it. This seventh head, as the current representative of the line of world powers, was the moving force in establishing the League of Nations and is still the major promoter and financial support of the United Nations. Thus, in symbol, the scarlet-colored wild beast—the eighth king—“springs from” the original seven heads. Viewed in this way, the statement that it sprang from the seven harmonizes well with the earlier revelation that the wild beast with two horns like a lamb (the Anglo-American World Power, the seventh head of that original wild beast) urged the making of the image and gave it life.—Revelation 13:1, 11, 14, 15.

Unsung Movie Villains
by LoveUniHateExams inwe all know the big movie villains get a lot of credit and appear in multiple movies - the shark in jaws, darth vader, and before them dracula, wolfman, frankenstein's monster, etc.. but there must be plenty of villains that get forgotten.. i thought clarence boddicker (played by kurtwood smith) was fantastic in robocop (1987) - a real psychopath.. another character who springs to mind is vilos cohaagen (ronny cox) in total recall (1990), i thought he was very good too.. obviously these and other movie villains do get some critical acclaim but they don't get their own franchise and they rarely get universal praise.. maybe 'unsung movie villains' is the wrong phrase but hopefully you get what i'm trying to say!

I think Koba is an unsung villain. I mean, trying to enslave the entire human race is one thing. But for an ape to kill another ape - now that's truly unforgivable!

the left does claim that every white person is inherently prejudiced
No it doesn't. Repeating a claim doesn't make it any more true the second time than it does the first time. Stop making things up.

I'm the left - and I don't claim this. Nor does anyone I know.
But if we're just going to make stuff up then "the right hates all black people and wants to build a death star."

Yeah, remember that time Obama called for a ban against all Muslims entering out country?
Or that time Obama called all Mexican immigrants criminals and rapists?
Or that time Obama said all the 15,000 Hati immigrants have AIDS?
Or called Africa a bunch of "Shit Hole" countries?
Or all those times Obama retweeted White Nationalists?
Wasn't it Obama who was indorsed by the KKK?
. . . oh wait, none of that was Obama? Oops, well you know what he DID do? - there was that one time he wore that tan suit to a white house briefing. I mean, if that doesn't make Obama a racist son of a bitch I just don't know what does . . .

What about the former FEC chairman
What about the former FEC chairman? The FEC doesn't prosecute criminal cases do they? The absolute most the FEC can do is impose fines. They don't charge people with crimes. And they don't put people in jail.
This is like quoting the head of the DMV as saying, "There's nothing in the DMV hand book about not running over your spouse with your car." - that doesn't mean that 1st or 2nd degree murder with a vehicle is suddenly okay.
If you want to sit at the table with the adults you need to bring legal and logical arguments to the discussion. Not half quotes from sources who are NOT authorities on the topic.

Instead of addressing any of the real and mounting legal incriminations against Trump - his supporters instead whine like little kids saying "you just don't want Donald Trump to be President".
Rather than addressing the facts - they instead choose to disparage peoples motives. It's the classic McCarthy tactic of accusing your critics of doing exactly the thing your guilty of.
The truth is Trumpsters "just like Donald Trump" and are willing to brush off all his unethical and illegal wrong doings. Trumpsters just want Trump to be President no matter what - our laws and institutions be damned.

Paying off a porn star so they don't go public about your affair two weeks prior to an election is absolutely a campaign expenditure. Beyond on that, in the recording we hear Trump and Cohen talking about the campaign and a "great poll" right before they discuss setting up shell companies to pay off Karen McDougal.
This is 100% a campaign expenditure.
