I just Re-Read and I can't possibly figure out the aspect wrong you referring,but you said homicide,homicide universally is crime to humanity in human race,This particular crime don't vary from country to country cus taking another person's life is tantamount to taking of your own life or life imprisonment.
Juxtaposing wrong from country law is alien to one who keep up with morality all day because morality is doing right at all times and law is there to protect the right of every citizen in the land of a given territory.

The bible gave account of god instructing people to killing on his behalf and he's also gonna kill me if I don't worship him,what type of god is that who takes pleasure in killing?

My simple point, is by default humans do what's wrong, you don't have to teach them. But you do have to teach them what's right.

A child growing up most of the time does the wrong things, and that's why they need proper teachings. Have you asked yourself why we don't grow up doing the right things? Or why we don't feel comfortable when confronted with the right way?

When another human gravely offends the law(s) of humans - they take your life. They either put you in prison or literally take your life...... What say you about God again?

If God really was forcing you to believe in Him or die, you certainly wouldn't be an atheist right now. He's not a tyrant as you guys want Him to be, and definitely doesn't think as we think or the way we want him to think.

If God thought the way we wanted, he would've a confused personality. Because individually, there's a way we all want God to think and act - including you, who claims he doesn't exist.

Morning bro, how are you doing today?
I have read your post over again and I see your point but try and re-read mine too especially towards the end so that the question I asked can be answered. Your theory of origin of the earth from what you said first of all can be seen as full of uncertainty and assumptions and not facts as you paint it to be, jettisoning that and assuming that you are right, the bible then has always had it right for 2500 years while science had it wrong because it's the same science that went ahead to agree with Aristotle on what he postulated, I ask again sir how do you reconcile that? What happened along the line of science that made it contradict itself? Let's leave future research out of it for now because if we go into that, I can give you millions of reasons why there is God based on discoveries and our inability to know everything at once with our mere peanut brain.
My night was short,Trust yours was good?

Right,I tried to be democratic enough not draw no conclusion on my big bang theory or your bible creation story,what I simply did, was to let you know the one I adopt to go by same way you adopted creation from the bible,its wrong to draw conclusion on mine by saying its based on assumptions and uncertainties.

Secondly,you can't come up on here and tell me point blank that science approved of creation and aristotle's school of thought, In the science world,hypotheses are tested by random scientists so you can't be so sure about science when your claims isn't a theory.

Theories are the end product of claims in the sciences which are objective, however,it is In great contrast with your logical opinion which is subjective. Yes,from your logical perspective science agrees with religion but that's to your own understanding of the sciences but as me, Science is way ahead of religion and repels from bible stories,its based on the knowledge about what I know about science and knowledge about what you know about science,that's just the difference between you and me.

Sure I totally agree with you,human by default tends to do whatever because they don't know right from wrong,that's why you being socialized to be given a sense of direction,morality and a sense of belonging. "Sigmund Freud" also said something like this when he talked about the conditioning of human mind. Yes,the process of correcting the child from wrong is still the same purpose which norms and law are stated,the child however grows up to abide by it.

Secondly,True,god can't force me to worship him for reason best known to me and not because he isn't a tyrant but rather,he's non existent. However,I can't bring myself to accept the fact that i want a god to think towards my predetermined mental direction,that would be alien of me to do but I tell you what,christians are the once who tryna make god change his mind on their situation through a process called prayer.

Matter is anything that has weight and occupy spaces,matter could be in 3 different types such as Solid,Liquid and Gas.
Now,To proof matter to you:- The phone you are holding and reading this from is a typical example of matter.

So ruling your pastor out of the picture would also make ask the question of who preaches god to you in church, who do your pay your offering to, and who stands as the link between the individual and god?

answer line between God and individual is the holy spirit as a dude this may sound creepy but the truth that when Jesus left this earth he said that he would send the great comforter to help in our Christian race see you can not serve God on your own believing some books there is a spiritual part I know this sound creepy but I was once a dude when I received the holy spirit in a service I felt joy and I understood what it means to be a Christian I was very confident because I knew I was not following some book instruction there was supernatural in it .The pastor is the leader of the congregation every gathering needs an instructor a director that does not make him the owner or that God values him more than you he preaches to the church becus everyone needs constant studying of the world of God and he also help the newly converted members understand the bible .then offerings and Church money belongs to church account they are used for church peoples like building facilities helping the needy Paul who was the greatest preacher earn for his personal needs but Nigerian pastors feast on the church
