"There is evidence of a Creator if you just look for it"

by unsure in

(for the record, i’m agnostic who is earnestly seeking an objective, honest and concrete hope for something greater).

“there is evidence of a creator if you just look for it”.

many of us have heard similar sentences from believers regarding proof of creator, proof that their religion is the correct one, proof that their particular sect is the right one, proof that their individual sects interpretation of a certain religious text is the right one, proof that their own personal interpretation of a certain religious text is the right one; the list goes on.. in one of my previous posts, i shared the following thought of mine:.

Its not even if there is a god (which I don't believe there is), but why I am certain that a god NEVER communicated with humans.

If a god ever did communicate with humans - these 3 things would be absolutely true.

1. It would be Indisputable. No one would doubt the message was from a deity.

2. It would be Unambiguous. Everyone would know exactly what was being said and asked. You would not have every third person interpret it in their own way.

3. It would be Globally Accepted.

Since none of these things apply to any holy writing - I know that no deity has communicated with humans.

Apologists saying that the JWs shouldn't be banned, what the hell!??

by Crazyguy in

it's been brought to my attention that there are xjw that say they support the witnesses and don't think russia should ban them.

i would just like to remind all of you that jws are guilty of murder, causing higher rates of suicide, covering up child molestation, and keeping members in prisoned because if they leave they loose family, financial support, possible employment etc.. sure their not strapping bombs to their chests but they easily get members to kill themselves with their blood policies.

they are an extremist group!

If you are talking about Cedars, he is NO apologist.

So my conclusion is this.
Not even if there is a god (which I don't believe there is), but why I am certain that a god NEVER communicated with humans.

Bible writers ignored their own principle

by venus in

bible gives a very beneficial principle when it states “too much talk” is problematic whereas “anyone who holds his tongue is prudent.” (proverb 10:19) in harmony with this if bible had given us just enough verses like this: “remember god always and do everything as an offering to him” (ecclesiastes 12:1; colossians 3:17), it could have kept itself invincible.. instead, it started to speak “too much” which often backfired.

1) too much information on a too less important subject (such as woman’s menstruation) and yet too less information on too important subject such as creation which comes in just one sentence: god created “the mankind in his image.” (genesis 1:27).

2) jesus was taken to a mountain top so that he and satan could see “all the kingdoms of the earth” [which is in support of flat-earth belief], and satan tried to tempt jesus by offering them all in exchange of an act of worship to him.

So how great did the Female Slaves ( or as we know it to day - forced prostitution) have it?
They have great freedoms as well?

By the way - you make it seem like they were Willing Workers?
Was doGs command of language so limited he could not explain it as a Employer Employee relationship?
No he couldn't - cuz they were SLAVES - people owned by other people!

20 “If a man strikes his slave man or his slave girl with a stick and that one dies by his hand, that one must be avenged.+ 21 However, if he survives for one or two days, he is not to be avenged, because he is someone bought with his owner’s money.

Yea being a slave rocked!
