GeneralShepherd: scientifc thinking is from imperfect man. And man adjusts as he dscovers the error in his ways. God is perfect so he doesnt need to improve. The bible is a case in point,it never needs editing-except to update the language (you instead of thou etc) |

kambo: There is life on earth because the factors on earth support life. Not the other way round! Religious mind!!! The disasters that make the news are d ones that take a high human toll!these disasters occur regularly from tornados,to volcanic eruption,land slides,tremors and earthquake! Watch NatGeo often and reduce the time you waste on TBN! Read books! Natural disasters are natural not anomalies! 1 Like |

This world is full of confusions!! Some belief there is God, others doesn't. Both of them have proofs. For instance, it is written that God created man in his own image and we belief that God is a perfect being, then why did Adam and Eve became imperfect? Are we saying that Dragon can tempt God? There are some many more things to disproof!! |

GeneralShepherd: first,is d misplaced assumption of how reality is composed. To your thinkg and science,life is based on made up of wat can b verified by the five senses. The bible says there's more to it. Tht there's a realm outside of the five senses. This settles issues. The bible says this realm,the spirit realm is a superset of the physcal realm. And in this realm are spirits (good and evil). God is a spirit. You,atheists are a spirit. Your body is a container holdg ur spirit and death is separation of your spirit and soul from your body. You and science will search till Jesus comes for physcal proof of the spiritual but wont find. But doctors are direct witnesses of changes tht have occured in people as a result of religious activity like prayer. These testimonies are irrefutable proofs. The medical profession has also had numerous near death tesimonies from patients who were on the brink of death or died briefly. You'd hav to b deliberately biased (which you atheists all are) to deny these testimonies. 1 Like |

kambo:I beg your pardon? God does not need to improve? But the bible shows him doing exactly that. He gets angry, commits genocide and the repents of his anger. In ot, he loves the burnt sacrifice of goats, sheep and ram ,and in the NT he settles for the human blood of Jesus, his supposed son, who incidentally is also himself. 4 Likes |

GeneralShepherd: *yawn* keep your argument logical and in context. Dont bore me. This spittle u produced in inadmissible. The bible doesnt and has never been edited is a statement of fact because thts how it has always been , proving tht it is comes from an unchanging unwavering inspuration. I cud very well have said the sun rises every morning and sets every evening it will always do so ( a statement of fact) - how you conjecture the fundamentalist part from tht beats me. Or ur tryg d age old gimmick of descendg to personal attacks in an argument. Grow up. And backup ur sweepg statements wth concrete examples. |

Look around you, isn't it awesome? I don't know about u, but everything I see around me fills me with wonder, even every human behavior, nature generally awes me, oblige me please, how did something dis beautiful come about? Take for example the human body, the eyes, the nose, the mouth, the teeth, the fingers, all to me seem perfect, placed where they should be, how come? Help me understand, u seem to know more than I do. |

And what about babies born blind? what about babies born without arms? What about the natural disasters that take millions of lives and property yearly? Does all this look perfect and awesome to you?. Ever heard of the evolution theory and natural selection? Ever heard that the universe has been discovered to be expanding? Ever heard of the big bang theory? Probably No, People in their lazy minds decide to subject things they can't understand as an act of god. The bible as well as all scriptural books were written by cavemen trying to explain god and things they couldn't understand. What science has been able to explain in 200 years, NO religion has been able to explain in thousands of years. |

plaetton: if u cant see the big picture this it what it looks like. First, you're mistakg the attributes of God and spiritual principles and laws for improvement. Enlighteng u on this wud b akin to givg u all a mini bible trining course. In the bible you'll never see God act proactively in meting out punishment ,it is always reactively. Two you'll find out tht God in the OT and God in the NT are different. In d ot punishment was met swiftly in the nt its delayed. Y? Y even punish? This is d question. You will admit tht punishg wrong is necessary for smooth functiong of groups-society, families,etc- but in d bible wrong generates somethg i'd call spiritual matter . This spiritual matter is sin. It has to be done away with . Its like dirt on a clean dress, you cant wear it out till its removed. It has a stench and it stinks. But this spiritual matter is not just unsightly and offensive,it is destructive. Highly so. Because of this spiritual substance generated by human action, God's perfect plan for man was thwarted. Thru sin came death, disease, natural disasters,i.e perversion of nature. The only antidote is destruction both of the agency (the sinner and the matter). If you leave the agent, the matter will spread bringing death and destruction in its wake. Thats y in the ot,you see God is swift in purgg the propagators right dwn to children . If you've watched zombie films you know what i mean. In the ot, sin was covered with the blood of animals pointg to the eternal plan wen God wud provide a final solution thru the blood of a perfect person,Jesus, the blood od animals could never remove the matter just cover it. But after Jesus death, the solution bcame complete, now his blood not only cleanses like acid it consumes and obliterates the sin making the sinner completely clean as if he has never sinned. All these are spiritual laws and processes not improvements. God had already planned tht Jesus wud die to save man in the event man sinned long before the first man was created! Where does sin stay? On the heart (i.e the spirit man) - its as real as dirt but its spiritual. For more information read the book of romans chpts 1- 10. You all (atheists) lack the perspective or understandg to judge God but one day it will b as broad as daylight tht He was just and right.but by then it will b too late for you all. First,with all your wisdom you all are still in your sins . You reject his anti dote and He will never allow sin into his kingdom. You are a spirit being so is God quit lookg for him under a microscope. |

Can I just add that there's nothing you can say to change a believer's (brainwashed) mind. I also find it amazing that Africans believe in a story written by people that detest them. Over 6000 kilometers away. Only if people can stop for a second and just THINK but hey, this is too much to ask. They waste precious time casting out demons and speaking jiberish while their counterpart that sold them the story are in the Laboratory developing the latest stuff to sell to the so called beleivers. Yet we wonder why we are not progressing as a continent. 1 Like |

Hmmm......bravo to all the well constructed and seemly sensible intellectual arguments. But time will tell wether God is real, or wether demons, angels or spirit world is a mere fanthom of imagination. You know the word of the cross is foolish to those who are perishing. Argument doesn't solve anything. It'll rather create more folly. And God is not even interested in proving any point to you. So you have a choice to believe or reject God's reality. But get it clear that demons don't have respect for anybody. They only fear and quake at name of Jesus. And only those who believe and function in that name can rule over them. I'm not forcing it into your throat.but the whole world need to realize that we all need Jesus. And thank God you have a choice. 1 Like |

Yes indeed, it's beautiful but have you spent time to study and research how they came about? I guess not. A typical myopic mind believes there's a mystery behind what confuses him/her. To an illetrate, starting up a car engine is probably a miracle. I think that says it all. 1 Like |

kambo: So you do agree that Ot god and Nt god are different. But different in what sense? Two different gods? Or was it that the OT god had a make-over, a self-improvement rehab perhaps, and then improved into the new and reformed Nt god? Is this exactly what I said. God gets better with age. 1 Like |

Secularist: It is refreshing to see that there are alot of atheist in the house. Some how we have been able to break the cycle and reason enough to question and rationalize, something several billions of people have refused or are simply too indoctrinated to do.Indeed,never knew skeptics were this much around, so many closet atheists, reason will always prevail against the sheer superstition propagated by religion 2 Likes |

kambo: So an omni omni god could not stop sin without commiting genocide, without attempting to wipe out the entire earth? That goes a long way to tell you how much of a psychopath your god is.
I thought your god was supposed be omniscient and knew man would sin even before he created man? Then why get angry when the obvious happens? Why kill your son who is also you (committing suicide) just to heal a forthcoming wound? Why would an omni creator commit genocide just to prove he is boss? 1 Like |
