RE: Statism: The Evolution of Religion
Matthew 13:10-13 - And the disciples came, and said unto him, Why speakest thou unto them in parables? He answered and said unto them, Because it is given unto you to know the mysteries of the kingdom of heaven, but to them it is not given. For whosoever hath, to him shall be given, and he shall have more abundance: but whosoever hath not, from him shall be taken away even that he hath. Therefore speak I to them in parables: because they seeing see not; and hearing they hear not, neither do they understand.
God has always existed - we are mere instances of his existence. For all that we know God might have thousands, millions, billions and quad-trillions of these instances simultaneously running.
He is God - he can do anything that he pleases!
God created the universe - all that he asks of you is to believe in him- he didn't ask you to go to church, do confession etc (that is man/statism).
So how how come God came to exist?
Evidence
Furthermore, you can ask God that question when you meet him.
How can you be so sure? What if you meet another God from another religion telling you "sorry, you got it all wrong"?
You are a christian because you were born in a christian environment. same applies to hindus, muslims, buddhists and everything else in between.
you just believe what other people told you to believe. get over it.
You are a broken record. A book is not evidence.
I can bring another book from another religion.
Dude. get your shit together. It is the same as a statists bringing his constitution as evidence for his country's superiority.
don't you get it? come on. it takes an I.Q of a potato
Bring me your books from other religions and I will tell you why it is different to the bible.
State your position and produce your evidence.
I notice that you are yet to question, or tackle my major points? I have given detailed responses , supported by scripture, logic and reasoning and you keep giving me one-liners and gifs.
Bring me these books from these false-religions and I will look into them and show you how they they differ to the bible.
Q (from me): What is your point exactly and where is your evidence?
A (from you): I hate the very idea of a God and I don't need to produce evidence, reasoning or logic to support my personal opinion!
I am sure because I have spent thousands of hours looking at evidence. I have also travelled, and spent significant periods of time living in approx 80 countries. Many people don't venture further than their lounge chair as they wait for the television to tell them what to think and believe.
Collosians 2:8 - Beware lest any man spoil you through philosophy and vain deceit, after the tradition of men, after the rudiments of the world, and not after Christ.
1 Corinthians 1:17-19 - For Christ sent me not to baptize, but to preach the gospel: not with wisdom of words, lest the cross of Christ should be made of none effect. 18 For the preaching of the cross is to them that perish foolishness; but unto us which are saved it is the power of God. 19 For it is written, I will destroy the wisdom of the wise, and will bring to nothing the understanding of the prudent.
Let me ask you a question - can you prove to me that God (Christian) is not real?
If you are being honest with yourself you will know cannot prove it. That makes you agnostic.
At best, atheism is an unreasonable and irrational worldview!
Have you heard the concept of "Burden of truth".It states that if you think God is real,you have to proof he is,not the people that claim him not to be.
Everyone can say that something which seemingly doesn't exist is real.If we had to prove everyone wrong about such claims all the time,we would not have time to debate actual logical ideas
I don't have to prove anything but in saying that I have more than enough proof to satisfy myself.
It would be great if neo-darwinists practised what they preached but unfortunately double-standards apply.
If we are to be consistent the 'burden of proof' standard should apply to the theory of neo-darwinism (natural selection acting on random mutations).
Neo-darwinists should stop lying by stating that their theories are facts. Nothing could be further from the truth. There are very few scientists today that are defending the theory, it is as good as dead - but the theory is still found in text books and taught in classrooms all over the world. Children and students are being lied to but that seems to be ok with most atheists!
This is just one of many blatant examples of the hypocrisy that is so prevalent in the scientific community.
