And the only thing consistent in the bible is killing. FROM
KILLING every living
thing on the face of the earth
other than Noah's family and
thereby makes himself the
greatest mass murderer in HISTORY TO NU 31:31-40 32,000 virgins are
taken by the Israelites as booty.
Thirty-two are set aside (to be
sacrificed?) as a tribute for the
Lord. etc. what a merciful and kind God.

God is being merciful by actually destroying unrepentant sinners.

It's madness to believe anything others don't.
A genius/scientist is mad until he can prove his hypothesis holds true and becomes a theory.
Believe it or not, its efficacy cannot be denied.

It doesn't make God less God, rather it shuts you the unbeliever from the limitless powers that abound in God.

Shekau is more merciful by killing unrepeatable Christians as well who fail to convert to Islam

First, I'm not an atheist or betterstill gat no tag/label.
Secondly, I didn't quote ya to engage into an argument.

Back to my question.
1. Who created the universe.
2. "if" god, can you describe the mechanism/processes he used. If you can't, can you pls briefly explain how he popped out something from nothing

Thank you
Lol
1.God

2a. .....
2b.Lol [b]if God cannot 'pop out' sth from nth,from what did God come from?[/b]My answer.
Answering further,


It would either be nth existed before God so God came out of nothing.Now this answer doesn't really get us anywhere.

or God had always existed so didn't need to come out of sth.This also doesn't really prove anything because if even we had to accept it ,it hasn't said much about God's nature.

OR sth existed before God which will raised an infinite regress of questions of what came before God.This answer do not really get us anywhere too.


So I went through some of your posts and I don't really understand. Are you a tending to the satanist side?
Anyway I really don't care

A hidden premise to my post is that the Bible is true. And I say that this premise underlies the whole of this thread. Why would you begin to criticize the actions of God if you consider them to have never happened(because to affirm Allah and Islam is to invalidate the Bible)?

And if the Bible is true, no one but the demons of hell inspire the actions of Shekau.

Do yourself a favor and visit answersingenesis.org and go to the "Contradictions" section, and educate yourself there. They are doing a good job there in demolishing the supposed contradictions in the Bible.

Why will a book from God who is so perfect in all his ways have contradictions in the first place. It's just like a fairytale story with different writers trying too much.

The hidden premise to his post is that the Koran is true. Why would you also criticize the actions of Allah if you consider them to have never happened. If the Koran is true no one but the demons of hell inspire the actions of christians and lie to them to worship a dead man as God.

Very daft. But not surprising.

Where did I set out to criticize the actions of Allah? His post was unwarranted because we are on a thread which assumes that the Bible is true.

Which thread assumes that the bible is true? The OP says christianity is a fairy tale and you are here claiming that the thread assumes the bible is true. When will you stop this daftness?

Who says God's existence is by accident. He alone is the beginning of all things in all realms, and by Him and for Him were all things made. He created the universe by His will and might, and chose to place us humans on one of its planets, what He does with the others, I'll know soon-when I get to ask Him face to face.

The only thing keeping Christianity (and some other religions) alive is fear. The fear of eternal damnation in hell and a promise of eternal life in heaven. When you rise above this fear, it falls like a tree.

Welcome to the new age of reason.

Same way atheists believe something like bigbang occurred.
Only an ignorant person would claim Big Bang is an atheistic claim

Big Bang was first proposed by a theist, georges LemaƮtre, who was a Belgian physicist and Roman Catholic priest; the Pope at the time, The Pius XII, even wanted to make it part of the Christian doctrine as "proof of god"
