Even if God exists…….
by snare&racket ini’m an atheist.. let’s assume i am wrong, i am willing to be.. let’s give people a god, let’s even make him the god of the bible…... does he deserve to be worshipped and obeyed?
if so, why does his abhorrent actions not morally make you question allegiance to him?.
does his authority alone allow him to murder and drown and order war, to throw people into a lake of fire?.

If a king proclaimed authority or even earned it democratically, does that power grant loyalty despite abhorrent acts?
Read the bible, if any king or leader performed the acts of the God of the bible, he would be considered the MOST evil leader that had ever existed. Forget Hitler, God drowned a planet, ordered the slicing open of pregnant bellies and plans infinite destruction for those than don’t do as he asks…..
I just don’t get it anymore, as an informed adult, free to think….how do people reason around this obvious moral obstacle?

Your motives and themes are really quite transparent, no matter how you disguise your opening post.
Stand by your words...
"Scientists believed the earth was flat."
When?
Who?
By what scientific method?
I have only ever heard JW's use this claim, that scientists once thought the world was flat. Utter nonsense.
Enough with your agendas and daily posts disguised thinly to make a point, it is ruining the forum.

Congratulations!
incredibly uplifting to hear! I love learning that others are embracing higher education. There is more than just careers and security at stake, but critical thinking and data analysis, skills that can help you avoid the pitfalls of misinformation, cults and internet 'experts'.
Ignore the negative comments from people who have never completed higher education, the fact they choose to attempt to tarnish your joy by commenting on something they have never themselves experienced says much about them as a person.
If he works hard, gets through the degree and chooses topics that either guarantee a career or for which he is deeply passionate, it can only be a good experience for him.
I am incredibly happy for you both!
I went from being a window cleaning, ex bethelite, to a university lecturer and hospital emergency physician thanks to hard work and education. The family members who have pursued education alongside me have had very rewarding careers also.
I owe my lovely new secure life to higher education and promote it at every opportunity!
All the best,
Snare

I know for a fact you are not black, just by your comments and opinions on black issues, despite me never seeing you state the colour of your skin.
Isn't that a sad state of affairs.
