Not So Polite Dinner Conversation – another “clever” Christian

Another “clever” Christian with their lists of questions.  They never acknowledge the answers and just run away. Oh well, it’s an easy post to show how little so many Christians think.

  1. Why is there something rather than nothing?

We don’t completely know yet. Still no evidence for this god or any gods.

  1. Is there any evidence that suggests the universe is eternal?

We don’t know what came before the BBT.  There are some hypotheses.  Again, we don’t know yet, and still no evidence for a god.

  1. If not, why do Atheists hold onto the idea and say you have debunked the Kalam Cosmological Argument?

Because we have.   The cosmological argument fails because it depends on an a priori assumption that can’t be shown to exist.  The laws of physics have as much chance of being an eternal cause as a god, and probably more hance since Christians and theist can’t agree on a god.

  1. If so, why do the vast majority of scientists reject this idea?

They don’t.

  1. Why is the universe so fine-tuned?

It isn’t.  When 99.999…% of the universe is deadly to humans, there’s nothing “fine” about it.  If you want to claim a god did this, what an incompetent god.

  1. If your answer is the multiverse, why is there no evidence for that theory?

I don’t and we don’t have any evidence *yet*.    Poor god of the gaps argument.

  1. Is it possible that there is no natural explanation for the origin of life?

Evidence please.  But sure, anyone of a billion gods can be responsible.  Show that it was your version of the Chrsitain god.

  1. Where does consciousness come from?

We’re not sure yet.   Seems to be from the brain since injury to the brain or an imbalance of brain chemicals changes it.

  1. Do you lack a belief that God exists or would you say that God does not exist?

The gods defined by humans don’t exist.  There is no evidence for them.  Could there be some vague thing?  Maybe, but that’s not the god you worship is it?

  1. Do you lack a belief that Zeus/God exists, or do you believe that Zeus does/God not exist?

See above.

  1. If you just lack a belief that Zeus/God exists, why are you centuries behind the rest of the world who say that Zeus doesn’t exist?

See above.

  1. Do you act according to what you believe, or what you just lack a belief in?

Yes to both.

  1. What evidence is there that Atheism corresponds with reality?

Evidence that theists claims never happened and that other things entirely did.

  1. Is Atheism a worldview?

No.  You do need to get a dictionary, don’t you?

  1. If not, what is your worldview?

Pretty close to Epicureanism.

  1. What would convince you that God exists?

Evidence.  And hmmm, which god since theists can’t agree, not even among themselves?   How about Christians being able to do what the bible says, that every baptized believer in Christ as savior can do miracles like Christ (Mark 16, James 5)?

  1. Are you willing to follow the evidence, even if it leads to a different understanding of how the universe works?

Yep.

  1. If Jesus rose from the dead, would you become a Christian?

Nope, since Christianity is based on a disgusting god.  I might believe that the entity exists.

  1. If you wouldn’t become a Christian, why would you ever accept that he rose from the dead?

Evidence.

  1. Why do Atheists keep insisting faith is blind trust, when that’s not what Christians or the Bible say?

That’s what the bible says:  “Now faith is the assurance of things hoped for, the conviction of things not seen.” – Hebrews 11  Why did you try to lie about that?

  1. Why do you want material evidence for an immaterial God?

Per Christians and the bible, this god has interacted with the physical on earth.  Where’s the evidence of this?

  1. Is there a purpose to life?

Yep, we each give our own life purpose.

  1. If there is, by what standard do you determine life has purpose?

My own.  No god needed, any of them.

  1. If not, what is the point of listening to this video?

Sorry didn’t see a video to watch.

  1. Where does morality come from?

Humans.  Theists can’t agree on what morals their god/s want.   They also change their morals as humans advance, insisting that they have a “new” interpretation of the same old nonsense.

  1. How do you determine what is right and what is wrong?

Based on myself and what makes civilization work.

  1. When a lion kills a cub from another pride because that’s what natural selection has raised it to do, is that morally acceptable?

For a lion it is.

  1. If evolution has put a sense of morality into us to help us survive, what makes our actions any better than any other animals actions?

They aren’t.  Again, theists don’t agree on morality so claims of an objective morality are just false claims.

  1. Is it morally acceptable for you kill a toddler because you can no longer financially support it?

Nope, but that is what makes our civilization work.

  1. Is it morally acceptable to kill a fetus in the womb because you couldn’t financially support it?

Yep, since a fetus isn’t a child.  Thanks for indicating you know the difference.

  1. Is it morally acceptable to kill a baby after it has been born?

Nope, unless it can’t live without pain and misery.   Anyone who wants to prolong pain is a monster.  Do you agree?

  1. How can you morally differentiate between a baby in the womb at 6 months and a baby born prematurely at 6 months?

You need a biology book too.  A fetus in the womb at six months has a chance thanks to modern medicine and would be treated exactly like the premature birth.  But nice try with the lies.

  1. Who was Jesus?

Perhaps a real person who was deluded.   However, this character is not the son of God, the one you claim to worship.  They aren’t the same being.  “Close enough” only counts for horseshoes and hand grenades.

  1. Why did his disciples die saying that he rose from the dead?

Because they wanted it to be true, however there isn’t much evidence for the apostles at all and we only have unknown authors writing decades after the supposed events, which we have no evidence for.  Why did the members of Heaven’s Gate say that they would be taken up by aliens and cut their genitalia off?

  1. Why does the Bible keep lining up with archaeology?

It doesn’t, but nice try with a lie.   None of the essential events of the bible have ever been supported by archaeological evidence.  No flood, no exodus, no sudden change in language, no fabulous palaces and temples, no battles of hundreds of thousands, no major earthquake/day darkening/dead wandering around Jerusalem on one certain day.

  1. Why do the three bloodiest regimes in History, (Mao’s China, Nazi Germany, and Stalin’s Russia) come from Atheistic ideas?

They don’t.   Hitler wrote voluminously about how he is following god’s will in persecuting the Jews in Mein Kampf.  Mao was acting like a megalomaniac as was Stalin.  That was the cause of their blood regimes.  Genocide isn’t an atheist idea, but we can sure see it is a theist one from the bible.

  1. Good answers. The apologists just fail so hard at being clever.

    I like Neil DeGrasse Tyson’s answer to why there is something rather than nothing (paraphrasing): “What makes you think there’s something? The universe is really big, and mostly not full of anything, so when you average it out, it’s really super close to nothing.”

    Another answer I like is that we don’t know that there was ever “nothing”. Maybe the condition of there being “nothing” is unstable and will always decay into “something”.

    1. You mean the atheist tries reeeeally hard (to their own detriment) at being clever? Oh! I thought I misread you, that’s exactly what you meant. Atheists have no logic whatsoever, they know nothing, believe in nothing, and make up things to suit their false “science” and “theories”. We Christians have truth and you hate that. Atheists are foolish, just like the bible says. Trust in Christ for everlasting life, or you will perish and spend eternity in hell. You can spend your life denying it, but it won’t change the fact.

Try to blame others all you want, but I’m not responsible for your soul and where it ends up after you die, neither am I “trying to bring you to my religion”. I’m simply speaking the truth, something you are blind to. I speak truth because truth lives inside of me. I’m sorry if you don’t like it and are offended by it. Anyways, trust in Christ for eternal life and you will never perish 🙂 if you don’t, there’s no one to blame but yourself.

        Do some research into what true Christianity is because I can tell you for certain, it’s not religion because religion saves no one. Only Jesus saves and if you don’t come to Him for eternal life then you will perish and we don’t want that for you.

        For example: The bible claims there was a global flood and one incestuous family were the sole survivors and future progenitors of the human race.

        However, evidence tells us this is a false claim.
        So if you wish to make a claim then the onus is on you to demonstrate the veracity of that claim.
        It is called the burden of proof.

      9. Biblical is an adjective. It isn’t evidence. Neither is the bible. We have no evidence of any of the essential events of the bible. What we have is evidence that things went on as usual, no divine magic, in the countries around the eastern Mediterranean. No magic plagues, but the egyptian kingdom doing what it always did. No one noticing that the Egytpian army completely vanished, but the egyptian army doing what it always did. No one noticed a major earthquake, the sky darkening and dead Jews wandering around a Roman occupied Jerusalem. Just the regular things that any 1 century city would have going on. Buying, selling, no one noticing a guy wandering around with a roman legion’s worth of men following him around.

        And it’s a shame that Christians can’t even put a date on any of the supposed events in the bible.

        Unless you want to agree that the qu’ran is evidence too? Do you?

        I can quote the bible, the qu’ran, the Vedas etc. You can do and surprise you don’t need to believe in them to quote them.

        “I the Lord thy God am a jealous God, visiting the iniquity of the fathers upon the children unto the third and fourth generation.” – Exodus 20

        “The Lord, the Lord,a God merciful and gracious,slow to anger,and abounding in steadfast love and faithfulness,7 keeping steadfast love for the thousandth generation,[b]forgiving iniquity and transgression and sin,yet by no means clearing the guilty,but visiting the iniquity of the parents upon the children and the children’s children,to the third and the fourth generation.”” – Exodus 34

        “15 But if you will not obey the Lord your God by diligently observing all his commandments and decrees, which I am commanding you today, then all these curses shall come upon you and overtake you: 16 Cursed shall you be in the city, and cursed shall you be in the field.17 Cursed shall be your basket and your kneading bowl.18 Cursed shall be the fruit of your womb, the fruit of your ground, the increase of your cattle and the issue of your flock.” – Deut 34

        This is what the bible says ““Leave here and go to Judea so that your disciples also may see the works you are doing; 4 for no one who wants[c] to be widely known acts in secret. If you do these things, show yourself to the world.” 5 (For not even his brothers believed in him.) 6 Jesus said to them, “My time has not yet come, but your time is always here. 7 The world cannot hate you, but it hates me because I testify against it that its works are evil. 8 Go to the festival yourselves. I am not going to this festival, for my time has not yet fully come.” 9 After saying this, he remained in Galilee.
        10 But after his brothers had gone to the festival, then he also went, not publicly but as it were in secret. 11 The Jews were looking for him at the festival and saying, “Where is he?” 12 And there was considerable complaining about him among the crowds. While some were saying, “He is a good man,” others were saying, “No, he is deceiving the crowd.” 13 Yet no one would speak openly about him for fear of the Jews.”

        If I say I’m not going to the fair, that doesn’t mean “I’m going to go later”.

      21. as usual, WTAT tries to claim his Christianity is the only true one. He has no evidence for this. He tries to claim that there is a soul. There is no evidence for that. He tries to make believe he doesn’t follow a religion since his fellow Christians have shat all over that word by their actions and ineffectiveness. He has to believe he’s special.

        What he wants is external validation, that even the atheists agree with him. That won’t happen.

        WTAT tries to lie about what his bible says when he claims that people can only “come” to this religion when the bible says that this god only allows certain people to accept it, no “coming” needed.

        That Christians agree that hell is okay shows that they do want it to happen to others. Any excuses offered are just one more version of “I was just following orders”.

      22. You know, when someone shows up on an atheist blog as desperate to convert the heathens as you apparently are, often it’s not the heathens they are trying to convince. Could it be that you are trying to convince yourself? Are you here to shore up your own flagging faith in your invisible friend? I’ve seen this happen before, one last attempt to hang on to faith before admitting that it’s time to let go of certainty.

        It’s OK to question. It’s OK to stop preaching for a while and just listen and learn new things instead. It’s OK to investigate what you believe and why. It’s OK to learn about stuff your church says not to learn about. Any belief worth believing in will survive a good hard prodding. If you never investigate for yourself, you will spend your life just parroting what you were told you were supposed to believe.

        Revelation 19:17-21 And I saw an angel standing in the sun; and he cried with a loud voice, saying to all the fowls that fly in the midst of heaven, Come and gather yourselves together unto the supper of the great God; That ye may eat the flesh of kings, and the flesh of captains, and the flesh of mighty men, and the flesh of horses, and of them that sit on them, and the flesh of all [men, both] free and bond, both small and great. And I saw the beast, and the kings of the earth, and their armies, gathered together to make war against him that sat on the horse, and against his army. And the beast was taken, and with him the false prophet that wrought miracles before him, with which he deceived them that had received the mark of the beast, and them that worshipped his image. These both were cast alive into a lake of fire burning with brimstone. And the remnant were slain with the sword of him that sat upon the horse, which [sword] proceeded out of his mouth: and all the fowls were filled with their flesh.

        Please notice the fowls (birds) were called to get ready to dine on the flesh of those who were enemies of God. The beast and false prophet were cast into the Lake of Fire. This is called the second death!

        Revelation 20:11-15 And I saw a great white throne, and him that sat on it, from whose face the earth and the heaven fled away; and there was found no place for them. And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is [the book] of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

        Please note again, the Great White Throne are for all unbelievers such as atheists and others who reject the Gospel. If you find yourself in front of this throne you can forget about getting a second chance. It won’t happen! This is why it’s so important for you to be saved from your sins. Make sure you’re written in the Lambs book of Life!

        “The Comforter”? Sounds like a wonderful superhero name. Sigh. The comforter is the nonsense that some christians claims as the Holy Spirit. They have to claim that only they get this “comforter” to feel special and to claim that they and only they “really” know what this god wants. No evidence of this at all. Since you all claim it, we’re back to how this claim shows that you all make up what you believe, no one sources since you contradict each other about what “the comforter” tells you.

Many will say to me in that day, Lord, Lord, have we not prophesied in thy name? and in thy name have cast out devils? and in thy name done many wonderful works? And then will I profess unto them, I never knew you: depart from me, ye that work iniquity.

        I’d be happy not to call any of you Christian, but you do insist on that term. You again fail at analogies. IF someone said that they were an atheist but believed in a god, they may be an atheist to only some gods, like you are. If they tried to claim that they came to the conclusion that no gods exist, then they would be simply ignoring the definition for reasons of their own, but it doesn’t change what atheist means. That’s rather like you trying to ignore the definition of Christian when you don’t like that many people meet that definition. You try to make up your own definition in your no true scotsman fallacies.

      32. Notice that while Moses was doing the magic, so were the magicians.

        ” 6 So Aaron stretched out his hand over the waters of Egypt; and the frogs came up and covered the land of Egypt. 7 But the magicians did the same by their secret arts, and brought frogs up on the land of Egypt.”

        hmmm, so we have the magicians being evidently lower level than Moses. Still magic and still just like Moses.

        What I find even funnier about the magic duel is that both sets of magic can’t happen. If all of the frogs come, then how can all of them come again? The same sillines happens with the water to blood:

        ““Say to Aaron, ‘Take your staff and stretch out your hand over the waters of Egypt—over its rivers, its canals, and its ponds, and all its pools of water—so that they may become blood; and there shall be blood throughout the whole land of Egypt, even in vessels of wood and in vessels of stone.’”

        20 Moses and Aaron did just as the Lord commanded. In the sight of Pharaoh and of his officials he lifted up the staff and struck the water in the river, and all the water in the river was turned into blood, 21 and the fish in the river died. The river stank so that the Egyptians could not drink its water, and there was blood throughout the whole land of Egypt. 22 But the magicians of Egypt did the same by their secret arts; so Pharaoh’s heart remained hardened, and he would not listen to them, as the Lord had said.”

        The writers of the bible weren’t very swift in telling stories. And funny how no one ever noticed any of this happening.

        of course our WTAT ignores this part since he can’t claim it isn’t in the bible.

        Yep, I do love Revelation because it shows just how ridiculous the bible is. We have in Revelation where WTAT’s god works with Satan and allows satan to corrupt Christians after this god kills everyone else.

        What a very stupid god. OF course, poor god has to depend on Satan to make its plan come true too, since no blood sacrifice/murder by torture would have happened and thus no salvation from a whiny god who caused the problem in the first place by either being unable to keep satan out of the garden or intentionally allowing it in. Ooopsie!

        So you agree your book isn’t magic, and yet continue quoting it at us, as if it means something special. It doesn’t. You are behaving as though you think there is some special power to the words in your book, hence a “magic book.”

        Suppose a Scientologist was trying to convert you, and kept quoting passages from Dianetics at you to make their point. I don’t think you’d be impressed. The more they quoted, the less impressed you’d be. Throwing bible verses at people only works among believers. Not here.

        You are protesting that your god doesn’t do magic, and yet every post of yours is loaded with “magical thinking”: that saying the right words or quoting from the right book, or performing the right rituals, or thinking the correct thoughts really hard will influence a supernatural being or power to alter the rules of the universe to your benefit. Humans do this all the time. Whether it’s an ancient tribe performing a rain dance, catholics chanting their rosary, children leaving cookies for Santa, new age believers waving crystals, a voodoo priestess casting a love spell, or an evangelical preacher throwing bible verses at an ex-believer because they think that the “holy spirit” will be invoked, it’s all the same thing. You are all believing in magic, even if you don’t like to call it that.

        I don’t believe in any kind of magic. I grew out of it. I don’t think the universe cares what words you say or what book you quote, or what rituals you do, or which thoughts you think, no matter how hard you think them. I don’t think there are any supernatural beings or forces out there who care about any of that. Quoting from your magic book over and over isn’t helping make your point, it just makes you look like you believe in magic.

It takes a cowardly person to think worshiping such a thing is a good idea. When I read the entire bible as a Christian, I realized just what an awful thing this god is, from its need for killing and blood sacrifice and greed for gold/jewels to its work with what supposedly is the ultimate evil. It’s a cut-rate one-dimensional villain.

      39. Thanks again for the compliment we really appreciate it!! Perhaps you think God is all that you said because you never were converted? Only those who are born from God know how loving and merciful God is. People who are dead in sin and trespasses tend to make God out to be a monster but that’s far from the truth.

        The truth of the matter is you love sin, it makes you feel all warm and fuzzy. But don’t be deceived your sin will bring you down into hell and you will regret it for all eternity.

        Isaiah 5:14 Therefore hell hath enlarged herself, and opened her mouth without measure: and their glory, and their multitude, and their pomp, and he that rejoiceth, shall descend into it.

        Matthew 5:29-30 And if thy right eye offend thee, pluck it out, and cast [it] from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not [that] thy whole body should be cast into hell. And if thy right hand offend thee, cut it off, and cast [it] from thee: for it is profitable for thee that one of thy members should perish, and not [that] thy whole body should be cast into hell.

        This is no joke we implore you, you must be born again!!

      40. No compliments made but I know that WTAT is desperate and has no problem in making things up. One more time to chalk up a Christian who ignores his supposedly holy book.
        Alas for you, WTAT, I was a Christian just like you. Just as much of a believer. You of course try to lie that I wasn’t because it terrifies you that you aren’t special and you can lose your makebelieve too.

        Your god is a monster, and only a sycophant would claim otherwise. Actions that hopefully you would be horrified if a human did, you laud and admire in your god. Lovely morality based on might equals right you have.
        So, WTAT, what is “sin”? Christians don’t agree so no reason to believe someone who can’t show he’s a Christian at all, except for claiming it.

        For someone who whines about context, you love to ignore that if convenient, and you love that OT as long as you don’t have to follow the inconvenient laws in it. The verse in Isaiah is about Sheol aka the grave, not your sadistic fantasy of hell. The cute verse from Matthew are just great since it shows that Christians like WTAT are the classic ones to ignore their supposed savior.

        No one needs “born again”. That verse is a great one because it shows how Christians mangle the bible with their interpretations. Is it “Born again” or “Born from above”? Christians just make things up. We also have the gospel of John failing again with claims that we can’t know where the wind comes from or where it goes. Such terribly ignorant people to think have any truth at all. We also have JC’s ignorance of his own heaven, with the claim that no one has ascended to heaven except him. Enoch, Elijah, and heck, somse Christians are sure that the “virgin” Mary went up too. Ooops. The GoJ also contradicts other gospels with the whole John the Baptist thing.

        Romans 5:6 For when we were yet without strength, in due time Christ died for the ungodly.

        So my question is this, are you ungodly?!
        If you don’t believe you’re a sinner then there’s no way you can be saved. Only sinners get saved and then they become saints by God’s own hand!!

      49. What does a verse from the bible mean?

        it’s a writing of a human who is upset that other humans don’t agree with them and try to claim that some god will punish them for doing so. It’s nothing different from the whine of a child on a playground insisting that their big brother will beat someone up.

        So let’s look at your verse: 15 See, I have set before you today life and prosperity, death and adversity. 16 If you obey the commandments of the Lord your God[b] that I am commanding you today, by loving the Lord your God, walking in his ways, and observing his commandments, decrees, and ordinances, then you shall live and become numerous, and the Lord your God will bless you in the land that you are entering to possess. 17 But if your heart turns away and you do not hear, but are led astray to bow down to other gods and serve them, 18 I declare to you today that you shall perish; you shall not live long in the land that you are crossing the Jordan to enter and possess. 19 I call heaven and earth to witness against you today that I have set before you life and death, blessings and curses. Choose life so that you and your descendants may live, 20 loving the Lord your God, obeying him, and holding fast to him; for that means life to you and length of days, so that you may live in the land that the Lord swore to give to your ancestors, to Abraham, to Isaac, and to Jacob.”

        and this set:

        ““About this time I will return and Sarah shall have a son.” 10 Nor is that all; something similar happened to Rebecca when she had conceived children by one husband, our ancestor Isaac. 11 Even before they had been born or had done anything good or bad (so that God’s purpose of election might continue, 12 not by works but by his call) she was told, “The elder shall serve the younger.” 13 As it is written,“I have loved Jacob, but I have hated Esau.”

        14 What then are we to say? Is there injustice on God’s part? By no means! 15 For he says to Moses,“I will have mercy on whom I have mercy, and I will have compassion on whom I have compassion.”

        16 So it depends not on human will or exertion, but on God who shows mercy. 17 For the scripture says to Pharaoh, “I have raised you up for the very purpose of showing my power in you, so that my name may be proclaimed in all the earth.” 18 So then he has mercy on whomever he chooses, and he hardens the heart of whomever he chooses.

        19 You will say to me then, “Why then does he still find fault? For who can resist his will?” 20 But who indeed are you, a human being, to argue with God? Will what is molded say to the one who molds it, “Why have you made me like this?” 21 Has the potter no right over the clay, to make out of the same lump one object for special use and another for ordinary use? 22 What if God, desiring to show his wrath and to make known his power, has endured with much patience the objects of wrath that are made for destruction; 23 and what if he has done so in order to make known the riches of his glory for the objects of mercy, which he has prepared beforehand for glory— 24 including us whom he has called, not from the Jews only but also from the Gentiles?”

        we also have JC saying this “10 Then the disciples came and asked him, “Why do you speak to them in parables?” 11 He answered, “To you it has been given to know the secrets[b] of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it has not been given. 12 For to those who have, more will be given, and they will have an abundance; but from those who have nothing, even what they have will be taken away”

        Oh look, another contradiction in the bible. So, which shall we accept, WTAT, the OT, which you insist you don’t have to follow the laws, or the NT, where JC and Paul both say that this god prevents people from accepting it?

        a. not free from sin
        b. pre-eminently sinful, especially wicked
        i. all wicked men
        ii. specifically of men stained with certain definite vices or crimes
        a. tax collectors, heathen

        These are the biblical definitions of sin, it all comes down to transgression of God’s Holy Law.

        1 Timothy 1:9-10 Knowing this, that the law is not made for a righteous man, but for the lawless and disobedient, for the ungodly and for sinners, for unholy and profane, for murderers of fathers and murderers of mothers, for manslayers, For whoremongers, for them that defile themselves with mankind, for menstealers, for liars, for perjured persons, and if there be any other thing that is contrary to sound doctrine;

        God has even created the establishment of human government with the power of capital punishment in the Noahic Covenant (Genesis 8:20-9:27).

        This is why when someone breaks the law they go to jail by those placed in the role of upholding the law (authorities). If someone rapes and murders someone the judge can tell that person you earned the death penalty. Just shows God’s hand in putting things in place to punish evil.

        And I would put myself in danger to save you if you were in trouble, because that’s what I’m called to do as a Christian.

        John 15:13 Greater love hath no man than this, that a man lay down his life for his friends.

        “…was I lying to you?”
        3rd time I’m telling you this, it was not yet His time; things were done according to time certain events unfolded according to time. When it wasen’t time for something to come to pass then it was not time.

        “… magic duel…”
        I told you Moses didn’t do ‘magic’ it was miracles he did. The pharaoh’s magicians were doing ‘magic’ that’s why they couldn’t do all that Moses did.

        Exodus 8:18-19 And the magicians did so with their enchantments to bring forth lice, BUT THEY COULD NOT: so there were lice upon man, and upon beast. Then the magicians said unto Pharaoh, THIS [IS] THE FINGER OF GOD: and Pharaoh’s heart was hardened, and he hearkened not unto them; as the LORD had said.

        ‘…Pirates…’
        They’re sinful men who need salvation the same as you do.

        ‘would you be impressed if a Muslim, or heck, another Chrisitan you don’t agree with quoted some of their nonsense to you? No?’

        See the rest of my answer in the other post.

        I’d love for another Christian to quote scripture because I love God’s word. Do you really think I’ve haven’t spoken with other Christians on doctrine?

        What do you think Christians do? We quote scripture, any Christian who doesn’t feel the need to memorize/quote scripture then they need to really examine themselves to see if they are in the faith.

        As for muslims they believe in a false god, and the quran is not a Holy book; its an unholy book.

        2 Corinthians 13:5 Examine yourselves, whether ye be in the faith; prove your own selves. Know ye not your own selves, how that Jesus Christ is in you, except ye be reprobates?

        “Born again” or “Born from above”
        Born again is being Born from above because you can only be saved by having the Holy Spirit indwell you for salvation. The Holy Spirit is God and God is from above.

        ‘…since you aren’t a Christian?’
        you can say this all you want but I’ve been saved when I came to an end of myself. Attacks such as these have no bearing on me and only proves the other side has no answers and must resort to name calling shows you’ve already lost.

        ‘Who should we believe, the bible authors or you?’
        Believe God’s word it’s not about me, never said it was.
        God calls you to repent I’ve given you the warning and if you perish that’s your choice but just know that if you do you’ll end up in the Lake of Fire.

        Revelation 21:8 But the fearful, and UNBELIEVING, and the abominable, and MURDERERS, and whoremongers, and SORCERERS, and idolaters, and all LIARS, shall have their part in the lake which burneth with fire and brimstone: which is the second death.

        ‘What’s “godly”, WTAT? Why do Christians disagree and are unable to show that they are “godly” at all?’
        I’m godly in Christ, I don’t have a righteousness of my own, I have the Lord Jesus Christ righteousness imputed onto me. It was God’s mercy and grace that saved this sinner.

      54. To be blunt, no one cares about your delusions of “sin”. They don’t exist for anyone but a believer who wants to play pretend that some god hates the same things he does. Christians make up the “holy law” and you can’t agree on what it is. That you aren’t even a Christian makes this even more amusing. You want to run to the bible for its nonsense but when I point out your personal failure, you want to ignore it.

        Humans have had laws far longer than your ignorant agrarians who lived in the east Mediterranean. No gods needed at all. Your terrible ignorance about history and your need to lie make you a failure every time.

        The bible isn’t evidence. Thanks for showing that you have nothing else but baseless claims, WTAT. By your own argument the qu’ran is just as valid as your bible. Now you realize how silly you are. You can’t show the qu’ran false or that the bible is true because theists all use the same idiotic arguments for their claims.

        And we get to see that poor WTAT has no idea what his bible actually says when he is horrified that the Muslim God uses deception. He forgets his god does the same things, like when Jesus lies to his brother, when this god sends a lying spirit to deceive people, and when this god intentionally sends delusions to people so they have to believe a lie (2 Thessalonians 2) . “You deceived me, Lord, and I was deceived; you overpowered me and prevailed.I am ridiculed all day long; everyone mocks me.” Jeremiah 20

        The bible is about magic and the supernatural. As hard as you try, you can’t make mentions of silly things like miracles go away. It’s like every sad little religion, trying to declare that their magic is okay and everyone else’s isn’t.

        Unsurprisingly, WTAT won’t answer my actual question, will he accept being punished for something I’ve done. He tries to desperately ignore what I asked and substituted this in its place: And I would put myself in danger to save you if you were in trouble, because that’s what I’m called to do as a Christian.” Alas for him, lots of people would do and have done this, and they weren’t Christians.

        Of course he wouldn’t accept punishment for my actions and he doesn’t like to have to admit that his god is wrong for requiring it. Jesus didn’t die if one believes the bible. He had an inconvenience. And what led up to that nonsense was: a god being too stupid to keep out Satan in the garden or intentionally letting it in. Then this poor god takes a tantrum, kicks people out for doing what it knew they would do if it let Satan in. We have several thousands years of this god screwing around trying to fix things with a flood, laws, etc, and then it finally gets around to deciding it needs a good ol’ fashioned blood sacrifice to make itself happy. Then it needs Satan again to cause this to happen, no torture death, no salvation. Finally we have the “end times” where this god works with Satan again. What an idiotic story where some god made part of itself be killed by torture so it could be happy about something it failed at. So no, Jesus didn’t die for me, even if this nonsense is true. This god died to make itself happy. A very weird bit of masturbation.

        Unsurprisingly again, WTAT tries to change what question I asked him to something he wants to answer. How very dishonest and classically Christian. Again, WTAT, answer the question I asked: “So, if you invited me to the movies tonight, and I said I wasn’t going to the movies tonight and then I snuck into the movies tonight, was I lying to you?” I am not asking if it was anyone’s “Time”. I’m asking this question. You don’t like it because if you answer it, you will show that Jesus did indeed lie. How wonderfully transparent you are.

        Again, no one here cares about your bible and what it says. More quotes don’t help. The bible constant contradicts itself.

        Nice to see you quoting Exodus and showing us that this god hardened pharaoh’s heart and poof there goes free will.

        As usual, one can tell when a Christian is lying with quotes when they use ellipses to hide what they don’t want people to see. WTAT wants to pretend that he wasn’t asked about if something in a book would convince him since he doesn’t want to admit that he uses a book that is just as silly as the one about the Great Spaghetti monster.

        Other Christians don’t’ agree with you, WTAT, so you just claim they aren’t Christians as is convenient for you. You seem to be utterly ignorant about other Christian doctrines so no, I don’t think you’ve talked with many people at all, Christian or not. Yep, and here you are showing us that you don’t find quotes from others to have any point, you just whine and claim that they are “unholy” again with no evidence at all.

        Born from above is not born again. Plenty of Christians again disagree with you. Per your supposedly “holy” book, it says you aren’t a Christian. Hmm, you answer “Believe God’s word it’s not about me, never said it was.” Okay then.

        No, you’ve given no “warning” but you want to fantasize that you have. You’ve invented a problem and now you want to invent a solution for something that doesn’t exist. I am not impressed by childish sadistic fantasies.

        You, unsurprisingly, can’t define what godly is. You want to claim you are but what does godly mean? Other Christians claim that they are “godly” too and you insist that those people aren’t Christians at all.

        Same argument, you really are reaching.

        ‘Humans have had laws’
        Lies God established law way before humans, His Law is HOLY.

        ‘The bible isn’t evidence’
        I’ve shown you many you just have too much hatred in your heart and won’t humble yourself, that’s alright you know deep down you have no rebuttals.
        Its ok to say you don’t know.

        ‘Muslim God’
        Is not the same, Muslims have no assurance of salvation because they don’t know if allah will send them to hell then remember them afterwards and take them out of hell.

        The God of the Bible doesn’t do that, only those who reject the free gift of salvation end up in hell because of their own pride. That’s the road your currently on.

        Jeremiah 20:7-18 Jeremiah regrets his unpopular ministry. The Lord persuaded (‘deceived’ was Jeremiah human view point, it wasn’t that God actually deceived) him into it. He wanted to stop delivering the unpopular message of Babylonian captivity, but could not. The word of the LORD burned like a fire within him. He overheard his friends plotting against him, but committed his cause to the LORD. At times he is confident, praising the LORD, but other times discouraged he wishes he had never been born.

        You need to know the context of the bible like I said before because you were never saved you have a carnal mind and cannot understand the things of God. An unregenerate person doesn’t have the Spirit of God, therefore the Gospel and the things of God are foolishness unto such a person because they are spiritually dead.

        ‘The bible is about magic’
        Know the difference between ‘magic’ and miracles

        ‘Unsurprisingly, WTAT won’t answer my actual question, will he accept being punished for something I’ve done.’

        I did answer I said yes, if you were in danger I would take the punishment. If someone was attacking you I would help you, but if you’re committing sin then you deserve hell. All people deserve hell including myself, only difference is that I trusted in Christ and I’m saved and homeward bound to heaven.

        Unfortunately, you never were saved and are on the way to hell. Like I said you don’t have to go there.

        ‘Of course he wouldn’t accept punishment for my actions and he doesn’t like to have to admit that his god is wrong for requiring it’

        Christ already took your punishment so that you could have forgiveness of sins, I’m not Christ and I can’t die in your place because I’m a sinner just like you. But I’m saved by grace.

        ‘dishonest and classically Christian’
        You’re the dishonest one here, you just don’t like the answers and want me to answer how you see fit, typical atheist tactic.

        ‘Nice to see you quoting Exodus and showing us that this god hardened pharaoh’s heart and poof there goes free will’
        Again know the context and background, why these things are spoken of.

        ‘Other Christians don’t’ agree with you’
        I don’t think you read well, I already answered this go read my response. I’m not going to repeat the same answer.

        ‘Born from above is not born again’
        Know the context before you speak, ok you tell me what’s born again mean?

        God is perfect and Holy and He requires nothing less than His own perfection. But, we are not able to attain His holiness. He doesn’t lie, cheat, or steal, but we do these things. Therefore, there’s a judgment upon us because we have broken the Law of God, we have sinned by lying and cheating and stealing. This judgment is eternal damnation. However, God the Father loves us so much that He sent God the Son, Jesus, who died on the cross as a sacrifice to pay the penalty for our sins. He died on the cross and physically rose from the dead three days later. This proves that His sacrifice was acceptable to the Father. Therefore, if you want to receive what Jesus has done to remove the wrath of God the Father, then you must receive Him and His sacrifice by faith. If you want forgiveness for your sins against God.

        Romans 3:23 For all have sinned, and come short of the glory of God;
        (Everyone has fallen short of God’s glory, you must be morally perfect which means never sinned in your whole life; we all fail miserably if we are honest with ourselves)

        Romans 3:10 As it is written, There is none righteous, no, not one:
        (No one is a good person we all have told a lie before or been angry or took God’s name in vain etc. These are all sins)

        Romans 5:12 Wherefore, as by one man sin entered into the world, and death by sin; and so death passed upon all men, for that all have sinned:
        (You and I were born in sin because of Adam’s transgression which made us all sinners by nature)

        Romans 6:23 For the wages of sin is death; but the gift of God is eternal life through Jesus Christ our Lord.
        (God will pay all sinners what they deserve which is death, but the good news (gospel) is that God made a way for you to escape the judgement through Christ)

        Romans 1:20 For the invisible things of him from the creation of the world are clearly seen, being understood by the things that are made, even his eternal power and Godhead; so that they are without excuse:
        (All of creation testifies that God is real therefore no one will have an excuse ex. “what if I never heard the gospel”)

        Romans 5:8 But God commendeth his love toward us, in that, while we were yet sinners, Christ died for us.
        (The good news is that Jesus Christ paid it all in full, you can be saved by placing your faith in Jesus Christ in His death, burial and resurrection)

        Romans 10:9-10, 13 That if thou shalt confess with thy mouth the Lord Jesus, and shalt believe in thine heart that God hath raised him from the dead, thou shalt be saved. For with the heart man believeth unto righteousness; and with the mouth confession is made unto salvation. … For whosoever shall call upon the name of the Lord shall be saved.
        (Will you confess Jesus Christ? Will you believe in Him?)

        Romans 5:1 Therefore being justified by faith, we have peace with God through our Lord Jesus Christ:
        (If you do you can be justified with God made righteous through Jesus Christ and you’ll have peace with God.)

        Romans 8:1, 38-39 There is therefore now no condemnation to them which are in Christ Jesus, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit. … For I am persuaded, that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor principalities, nor powers, nor things present, nor things to come, Nor height, nor depth, nor any other creature, shall be able to separate us from the love of God, which is in Christ Jesus our Lord.
        (Last but not least you’ll never lose your salvation because it’s a free gift which no one will be able to take away; and you’ll have a home in heaven.)

        What happened to you that you have so much hatred in your heart? Must have been horrible.

      56. No, I do not like talking to you. I find you a tedious, willfully ignorant liar. But I find it necessary to counter such ignorance and lies.
        It’s always notable when you can’t rebut my points, WTAT.

        Christians make up their religion in their own image. You do this. IT’s very cute to see Christians attack each other on who has the “right” version of their imaginary friend.
        Of course you can’t show that I’ve lied. Humans have had laws long before your ignorant agrarians made some up and then lied that their god was the source. You can’t even show your version of the Christian god exists or the laws that you pick and choose to follow had a divine source. The whole silly story where the laws were finally mentioned never happened.
        Again, you whine about the bible being evidence. IF this is so, then the qu’ran is evidence that Islam is true. Are you go with this? Your bible is full of claims, you can’t use claims as evidence for themselves. You simply seem unable to comprehend this. Oh well.

        I humble myself befoe no imaginary being that a sad fellow like you can’t show exists. And nope, no hatred for your silly little invented god. I do get disgusted with lying Christians who try to hurt people in the name of their imaginary god. And aw, it’s so cute when a Christian claims he can read minds. Sorry dear, I certainly don’t “deep down” agree with your lies. You have to make that up since you desperately need external validation of your nonsense.
        Wah, “is not the same”. Again, it’s so cute to see you intentionally try to ignore what I’ve actually written in favor of trying to lie and answer something that was not said. This is what I said “And we get to see that poor WTAT has no idea what his bible actually says when he is horrified that the Muslim God uses deception. He forgets his god does the same things, like when Jesus lies to his brother, when this god sends a lying spirit to deceive people, and when this god intentionally sends delusions to people so they have to believe a lie (2 Thessalonians 2) . “You deceived me, Lord, and I was deceived; you overpowered me and prevailed.I am ridiculed all day long; everyone mocks me.” Jeremiah 20”

        And what WTAT tried to reply with: “Is not the same, Muslims have no assurance of salvation because they don’t know if allah will send them to hell then remember them afterwards and take them out of hell.” Nice bit of incoherence there.

        We also have WTAT again trying to lie and ignore what his bible says about who gets chosen by his god and who doesn’t. There is no “free gift of salvation”. I’m glad that you have no problem in denying your bible and your god, WTAT. Nope, I’m on no path that you want to pretend I’m on, no sadistic fantasies to come true for WTAT. He will die knowing that he failed.

        Ah, just as all Christians do, we have WTAT’s baseless claims that he and he alone knows what the bible verses “really” mean. Nope, Jeremiah claims that his god is a deceiever and god has no problem with that. Then we have that god does intentionally deceive. For all Christians whine about context, you sure hate it when the context shows that your religion isn’t quite what you thought it was.

        Then we have more lies by WTAT invented so WTAT can play the “no true scotsman” fallacy. Alas, since WTAT can’t do what a Christian is promised to do in his bible, no reason to think he has any ability to judge others on the matter if they were a Christian or not. As for the “spirit” of this god telling any Christian what the bible “really” means, again, all Christians claim so, all Christians contradict each other, and the holy spirit is complete nonsense.

        Magic is miracles, WTAT. You want to pretend otherwise to feel special. You aren’t. Most if not all human invented gods do magic/miracles.

        Again, we have WTAT avoiding the simply question “, will he accept being punished for something I’ve done.” It’s very funny to see you again try to avoid the question with an answer to a question I’ve never asked. This is his answer “and I would put myself in danger to save you if you were in trouble, because that’s what I’m called to do as a Christian.” And now we have a variant of that “I did answer I said yes, if you were in danger I would take the punishment. If someone was attacking you I would help you, but if you’re committing sin then you deserve hell.”

        So again we have no answer to “, will he accept being punished for something I’ve done.” This is not “danger”, this is a question about fairness and justice not if I were in danger. Poor lil’ WTAT, everyone deserves hell if they dare not agree with him. Tsk. No sign you are saved either, WTAT, again you can’t do what a Christian is promised to do. Just like Calvinist, so sure that you are part of the predestined chosen. How childish and arrogant.

        Nope, no Christ and no salvation, no grace (which was invented by Paul in Romans 9 where he said this god chooses some people to be saved and then damns the rest). Again, not asking if WTAT could absolve me of his imaginary “sins”, but if he would accept being punished for something I did.
        WTAT doesn’t like me holding his feet to the fire and expecting him to be honest. Too bad.

        The context of Exodus is this god hardening the pharaoh’s heart to show off. No context disproves that. WTAT knows that since he can’t show the context he claims.

        WTAT also doesn’t’ like me showing him that other Christians dare disagree with him. He has to lie and accuse me of being unable to read to try to pretend that I’m wrong. We see this in the problem that WTAT has with the phrase “born from above” and “born again”, which Christians do not agree on. Some Christians, mostly evangelicals, think they need to be born again into their religion to make themselves Christian, other Christians are sure that they got it right the first time.

        WTAT’s god is not perfect or holy or perfect. It is imaginary and as flawed as WTAT. As opposed to WTAT’s claims, his bible shows that the god described there does lie and deceive and works with what is supposedly the ultimate evil hand in hand. There is no such thing as “sin” except as a fantasy for theists who want to declare that their god/s are offended by what the theist is. They get their jollies fantasizing that anyone who disagrees with them deserve eternal torture. What usually happens is that they whine when confronted about this and say it’s not up to them but their god aka “I am just following orders”. Nope, their sadism is their own.

        I’m sure I’m repeating myself but WTAT’s god screwed up in the garden, took a tantrum that humans did what it knew they would, and then decided, after failing for thousands of years, that it needed a blood sacrifice to make itself happy, just like any religion at that time, needing death and pain. It’s hilarious to see nonsense like “This proves that His sacrifice was acceptable to the Father” when his father set the whole thing up.

        And then we have more made up nonsense aka verses of the bible that shows that WTAT isn’t a Christian. Bummer for him. WTAT wants everyone to think we’ve fallen short of the god he’s invented as himself. Nah, we haven’t fallen short at all. We are far better than the sad little god that Christians have.
        And here is another bit of nonsense that Christians don’t agree about. “(Last but not least you’ll never lose your salvation because it’s a free gift which no one will be able to take away; and you’ll have a home in heaven.)”

        Poor WTAT, still must lie when he tries this again “What happened to you that you have so much hatred in your heart? Must have been horrible.” He has to hope something horrible happened so he doesn’t have to consider my points. What a failure of a human being. Sorry, dear, nothing horrible happened at all. You can stop masturbating over that fantasy now.

        Well, that’s alright, I certainly love talking with you so let’s keep it going.

        You know the devil always says the same thing, he calls followers of Christ liars because he’s the accuser of the brethren (Revelation 12:10).

        The reason why you don’t hear God’s words is because you’re a child of the devil, therefore, I don’t expect any different from his children.

        John 8:44 Ye are of [your] father the devil, and the lusts of your father ye will do. He was a murderer from the beginning, and abode not in the truth, because there is no truth in him. When he speaketh a lie, he speaketh of his own: for he is a liar, and the father of it.

        ‘Christians make up their religion in their own image. You do this. IT’s very cute to see Christians attack each other on who has the “right” version of their imaginary friend.’

        I love that my so called ‘imaginary friend’ gets you so hot-headed it just shows the truth of God’s word.

        Romans 8:6-7 For to be carnally minded [is] death; but to be spiritually minded [is] life and peace. Because the carnal mind [is] enmity against God: for it is not subject to the law of God, neither indeed can be.

        Carnal: σάρξ sárx: the sensuous nature of man, “the animal nature”, the animal nature with cravings which incite to sin.

        Like I said you love your sin and don’t want to be accountable, it’s quite understandable I used to be in the same boat as you. An angry person shaking their little fist at God.

        ‘Of course you can’t show that I’ve lied. Humans have had laws long before your ignorant agrarians made some up and then lied that their god was the source…’

        Show that He doesn’t exist.

        You mean the way you hardened your heart towards God? It’s your pride that’s done that, but God can still forgive you.

        ‘Christians dare disagree with him’
        It doesn’t matter to me if ‘other Christians’ disagree, like I told you its the foundational truths that makes one a Christian. The Bible itself reveals those doctrines that are essential to the Christian faith. They are 1) the Deity of Christ, 2) Salvation by Grace, 3) Resurrection of Christ, 4) the gospel, and 5) monotheism. These are the doctrines the Bible says are necessary. Though there are many other important doctrines, these five are the ones that are declared by Scripture to be essential (called primary essentials since the Bible declares them as essential). A non-regenerate person (i.e., Mormon or Jehovah’s Witness, atheist, Muslim), will deny one or more of these essential doctrines. There are other derivative doctrines of scripture that become necessary also and the Trinity being one.

        Non-essentials
        Eschatology (how and when the end times will unfold, the rapture, the millenium, the role of Israel today, etc.)
        Earth Age (young v. old earth creationism, etc.)
        Bible translation preferences (King James v. modern translations, word-for-word v. thought-for-thought, etc.)
        Ecclesiology (church government models, the roles of clergy and laity, are Apostles and Prophets for today, etc.)
        Soteriological Systems (Arminianism v. Calvinism, etc.)
        Demonology (can a Christian have a demon or not, teachings on various kinds of spiritual warfare, etc.)
        Sacrament practices (wine v. grape juice, leavened v. unleavened bread, who can administer, etc.)
        Modes of baptism (sprinkling v. full immersion, infant baptism, etc.)
        Worship styles (liturgical v. contemporary, hymns v. choruses, choirs, drums v. organs, etc.)
        The gifts of the Holy Spirit (tongues v. no tongues, cessationism v. continuationism, etc.)
        Worship observances (Sabbatarianism v. Sunday worship, observance of special holy days, tithing, etc.)
        Food and drink (consumption of alcohol v. abstinence, kosher v. non-kosher food, etc.)
        Various do’s and don’ts (tobacco consumption, playing cards, dancing, makeup, “acceptable” dress, movies, etc.) Etc., etc., etc.

        ‘God is not perfect or holy or perfect’
        All ungodly people say that you’re not saying anything of substance it all empty and vain talk. When you stand before Him on the Day of Judgement all those words will not come out your mouth anymore. Because it will be stopped.

        Romans 3:19 Now we know that what things soever the law saith, it saith to them who are under the law: that every mouth may be stopped, and all the world may become guilty before God.

        Again, bible verses are garbage. But keep posting them to show you have nothing else but fairy stories that you try to fright people with.
        Poor WTAT, no not “hot-headed” either. Keep trying. I see you can’t show that I’m wrong about Christians make their god and religion in their own image.
        No sin invented by WTAT. No god to agree with WTAT. No god to shake a fist at.
        Again, WTAT, there is no evidence for your version of your god or for the events it supposedly caused. The entire world has went along as normal, no gods, and evidence to that fact is in every culture since no one noticed your bible nonsense. The exodus didn’t happen since life in Egypt wasn’t disturbed and documents show that for any date that Christians might try to invent for the exodus. No one in Egypt at any time noticed a 28,000 foot flood at any time Chrisitans try to invent for it to have happened. No one noticed the dead walking around Jerusalem during a Passover at any time Christians. What we have are civilization who have created laws that make civilization work better. There is nothing unique about the Israelites and their laws. Similar laws are found in most if not all civilizations.

        Now, we are still stuck with you being unable to show your version of your god *does* exist. All you have is an imaginary being you try to claim agrees with you. Hope doesn’t require you or your god. And you’ll die just like the rest of us, no magical afterlife.
        We also have you trying to claim one holy book “counterfeit” and unable to show yours to be in anyway related to reality. If your bible is to be considered evidence, the qu’ran can be claimed to be evidence too. You have to show that it is wrong and your nonsense is right. I’ve been waiting for that and you can’t.
        Nah, no hatred still. But we do have a Christian who intentionally lies about others, ignoring his bible. Again, WTAT, you do have trouble realizing that one can be annoyed by the silliness of Christians and be sure that their god is imaginary. I guess you must be bothered by Allah since you are so upset that I dare compare your holy book to the qu’ran.
        You’ve yet to show that miracles are real. What I do love how is that Christians are admitting that their imaginary god is weaker than a virus.
        Still no answer for “, will he accept being punished for something I’ve done.””

        Alas for you, WTAT, the science that you happily use to have a computer, to use a cell phone, to have modern food stuffs, to have antibiotics is the same science that provides evidence for the Big Bang, evolutionary theory, etc. You are a hypocrite but that’s nothing new. You also show again that you have no idea what evolutionary theory says, depending on willful ignorance to cling to your belief that you are special.
        I’ve not hardened anything, WTAT. What we have in the bible is a god that forces its will on humans. No free will at all. But you just ignore those parts, creating your bible and your god in your image. That denial doesn’t make those parts go away. Per your god, nope it can’t forgive me so you are ignoring about your bible and god again.
        Christians disagree on what they want to claim are “foundational truths”. You all use that lovely no true scotsman fallacy to pretend that only you have the “right” Christianity. Chrisitans don’t agree on what the Gospels really mean, what parts to take as metaphor or literal, what sin is, etc. Again, Christians don’t agree with you, and none of you can show that you are Christians at all. It’s hilarious to see Christians like you try to claim that there are “essentials” and “primary essentials”. If something is essential, that’s all you need. Then you all go around trying to claim such a happy family you are, when all of the time insisting that those who dare not agree with you aren’t Christians at all and are going to hell. Such mean little children. It’s even better when you are dithering around and trying to claim that some things are “necessary” and not. Again, WTAT, anyone with a knowledge of Christian history knows how Christians sects split and split and split, with each insisting that they are the only “real” Christians.

        Those “non-essentials” you claim aren’t so non-essential at all. Christians were happily killing and condemning each other to hell over these things, so I know you are simply lying again to create a false claim of unity. It’s great to see such outright lying. Those things you claim aren’t essential are considered those pesky sins you are always on about. IF you don’t get them right, then you are sinning.
        You’ve yet to show any perfect being, WTAT. As far as I can tell, you have no what perfect even means in this context. All theists try to claim their god is perfect, but every one else’s god is imaginary. Since none of you can show your imaginary friend, no reason to believe any of you when you doubt each other’s use of the same arguments.

        Your fantasies about the “day of judgement” are those of a whiny child. No, WTAT, no one will be forced to not speak against you and your nonsense. We’ll always be here. And your religion will fade away, changing again and again to find excuses why your god is a no-show.

      59. Sorry, I don’t have a religion. It always makes me laugh when a Christian tries this as if claiming one having a religion is the worst thing you can think of. You, WTAT, have a religion and you have no faith in it. You must scrabble for any little scrap you think can show your delusions to be true.

        Alas, for you the BBT has a lot of evidence supporting it, including the fact that you can use your cell phone and your computer. The laws of physics support it and sad hypocrites like you try to decry science when it shows your nonsense to be false, but you sure have no problem using the results of that science. As usual, you have no idea what the BBT is and try to claim it is “everythign came from nothing”. That is no the case, but you cling to your willful ignorance to convince yourself you are special.

        You are your own little god, WTAT. Your god is nothing but your invention, based on your very human hates and desires.

        You also have no idea what secular humanism is. As for all “truth” being relative, Christians are masters at that since none of you agree on your supposed “truths” and you happily attack each other over them. Christian “truths” have changed ever generation, with each new sect insisting that its interpretation is what their god “really” meant, as if this deity mumbles to every prior generation.

And I saw the dead, small and great, stand before God; and the books were opened: and another book was opened, which is [the book] of life: and the dead were judged out of those things which were written in the books, according to their works. And the sea gave up the dead which were in it; and death and hell delivered up the dead which were in them: and they were judged every man according to their works. And death and hell were cast into the lake of fire. This is the second death. And whosoever was not found written in the book of life was cast into the lake of fire.

For the law of the Spirit of life in Christ Jesus hath made me free from the law of sin and death. For what the law could not do, in that it was weak through the flesh, God sending his own Son in the likeness of sinful flesh, and for sin, condemned sin in the flesh: That the righteousness of the law might be fulfilled in us, who walk not after the flesh, but after the Spirit.

        Always fun when a Christian tries to lie about what the bible says and shows just how inept he is at that.

        Paul often contradicts JC so I’m not surprised. Most Christians really should be called Paulians. Paul fits JC’s description of a anti-christ very well, with false claims of JC returning in a time period that Paul claims to know.

This is confirmed in Romans 11:25-29, where Israel’s election as a future redeemed people is also stated. From Mark 13, we see that there will be those chosen of God as His faithful witnesses (first, a Jewish remnant, then also Gentiles – see Rev 7) who are saved/preserved through the great tribulation period to enter into His glorious kingdom; there will also be a wonderful repentance and restoration of Israel as a chosen people/nation at the revelation of Christ at the climax of that period. Mark 13:27 suggests a gathering from all parts of the earth; whether scattered because of tribulation persecution, or the dispersed of Israel centuries ago. The “elect” of Mark 13:27 are God’s redeemed people: first restored Israel, and then also those of all nations who receive the gospel of His kingdom. The expression, “and to the uttermost part of heaven,” may also embrace the martyred tribulation saints, as well as Old Testament saints, who will be raised from the dead at Jesus Christ coming to reign (Dan 12:2-3, 13; Rev 20:4-6).

      24. I’m not putting words into your mouth. What you said is “a Christian cannot lose their salvation,” I was a Christian. Thus, according to your statement, I’m still saved. NOW … if you try to tell me I was never a Christian, you are JUDGING me (Matthew 7:1). But of course, the whole question is pointless since, in reality, there is nothing to be saved from.

        And that verse you threw out there about fruits? Exactly what, in your opinion, are the “fruits” that would qualify me as a True Christian™?

        Answers to your questions:

        1. There is an answer in the scriptures that would probably be the one you’re looking for. But, IMO, there are no Christians because there is no “God” and the bible is a book of fiction. It’s simply a title that people like to tack onto themselves because they believe in fairy tales.

        2. “Moral” is defined as Concerned with principles of right and wrong or conforming to standards of behavior and character based on those principles, so yes, I am “moral” since I’m concerned about doing the right thing. (Of course, your next question would be … what it the “right thing.” HaHa) And yes, I’m upright since I stand in a vertical position.

        It’s dinnertime where I live so ‘toodles’ for now.

      25. Please read the verses in context, this is the atheist most fav verse to quote. Let’s read more than 1 verse in context yes?

        Matthew 7:1-5 Judge not, that ye be not judged. For with what judgment ye judge, ye shall be judged: and with what measure ye mete, it shall be measured to you again. And why beholdest thou the mote that is in thy brother’s eye, but considerest not the beam that is in thine own eye? Or how wilt thou say to thy brother, Let me pull out the mote out of thine eye; and, behold, a beam [is] in thine own eye? Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye.

        This is speaking of hypocritical judgement, for instance if I told you not to drink beer. And later when no one was around I drank beer then I would be a hypocrite. These verse is not saying you cannot judge, it’s saying only righteous judgement is acceptable.

        Notice ‘Thou hypocrite, first cast out the beam out of thine own eye; and then shalt thou see clearly to cast out the mote out of thy brother’s eye’.

        Example: If I used to be a drunkard and overcame my addition through Christ, I can now tell you how wrong it is to be a drunkard.

        ‘“Moral” is defined as Concerned with principles of right and wrong or conforming to standards of behavior and character based on those principles, so yes, I am “moral” since I’m concerned about doing the right thing. (Of course, your next question would be … what it the “right thing.” HaHa) And yes, I’m upright since I stand in a vertical position.’

        1. So what’s the ‘right thing’. If there is no God then what’s the purpose to doing the ‘right thing’. Your world view doesn’t allow for morality because if there’s no God then what’s your standard of morality? Where does your morality come from?

Thus, individuals are not elected as individuals directly, but secondarily as members of the elect group. Nevertheless, corporate election necessarily entails a type of individual election because of the inextricable connection between any group and the individuals who belong to it. Individuals are elect as a consequence of their membership in the group.””

        or

        “”Divine election may be defined as that loving and merciful decision by God the Father to bestow eternal life upon some, but not all, hell-deserving sinners. . . . One does not enter the ranks of the elect by meeting a condition, be it faith or repentance. One enters the ranks of the elect by virtue of God’s free and altogether gracious choice, as a result of which he enables us to repent and believe.”

        or

        “Romans 9-11 indicates that God shows saving mercy to whom he pleases and that He pleases to show this saving mercy to those who put faith in Jesus Christ. Thus election is conditional and faith is the condition. 4. This election is ‘according to foreknowledge’ (1 Peter 1:2), where ‘foreknowledge’ may mean ether prescience, foresight, or foreplanning—or a blending of all three. 5. For the elect God has ‘foreordained’ (KJV, ‘predestinated’) certain salvation blessings (Romans 8:29, 30, Ephesians 1:3-14). 6. In election and foreordination, everything is grounded on, and in accord with, the sovereign will (= good pleasure, purpose, counsel) of God (Ephesians 1:3-14).”

        This statement occurs in the dispensational section of Romans (chapters 9-11) where Israel is mentioned 12 times as the main subject. Chapter 9 shows God’s sovereignty in Israel’s past election. Chapter 10 reveals God’s righteousness in Israel’s present rejection, because of refusing the gospel and their Messiah Jesus Christ. Chapter 11 unveils God’s wisdom and faithfulness in Israel’s future restoration as a nation. God cast off Israel nationally, not individually and finally (11:2). Paul was an Israelite, in the remnant called out to form part of the church with believing Gentiles (those in Christ) “according to the election of grace” (11:5). “Blindness in part is happened to Israel…” (11:25). The unbelieving in Israel have been blinded. Those Jews who have believed the gospel had the veil removed from their minds. In like manner, “All Israel shall be saved” nationally, not individually. All believers in Israel who repent and accept the Lord Jesus as their Messiah will inherit the kingdom. Unbelievers in the nation will be destroyed at the second advent of Christ (Zechariah 13:8, 9). The setting aside of Israel was according to divine purpose (Hosea 3:4, 5; Acts 15:14-18), but only “until the fulness of the Gentiles (believers gathered from the Gentiles during this church age, the many days,” Hosea 3:4) be come in.”

        Here I’ll write some more on Romans 11:26 for your understanding so that you can learn proper hermeneutics of scripture. Even though you don’t believe it.

        Romans 11:26 – Israel’s judicial blindness will be removed at the time of the Rapture, but that does not mean all of Israel will be saved immediately. Jews will come to faith in Christ following there conversion throughout the Great Tribulation Period. But the entire elect remnant will not be saved until Jesus Christ returns to earth as Lord of lords and King of kings.

        The apostle Paul makes mention of this saying that all Israel will be saved, this means all believing Israelites who make up the nation. The unbelieving portion of the nation will be destroyed at the Second Advent of Christ Jesus (Zech 13:8, 9). Only those who profess ‘Blessed is He that cometh in the name of the Lord’ will allowed to enter into the kingdom.

        This was mentioned by the prophet Isaiah when we spoke of the Redeemer coming to Zion and turning transgressions/iniquity away from Jacob (Isa 59:20). It’s not Christ’s coming to Sion (The Second Coming).

    Not only that, I’ve gotten to the point where I actually feel sorry for this person. When all a “Christian” can do to is get on a blog and quote scripture, you know they no longer have a life of their own … and that’s sad.

    Anyway, have fun. And don’t get too dizzy going round and round with this twit.
