Anonymous Coward User ID: 797216 United States 10/24/2009 11:41 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | God doesn't live on Earth, which makes Him an Extra-Terrestrial. God destroyed Egypt, which ruled the whole known world at the time. If you look at Egypt of today compared to Egypt of then, God was not joking around. God promised to return and destroy some more stuff. Those who insult Him are clearly His enemies, so it's perfectly fair they get destroyed. The message of the Bible is that God destroyed Egypt, which was the one world government at the time, so that people would build a society based on blue-prints that God gave them. God promised that He will return after some time to check and if people didn't build such a society by that time, He will destroy everybody on the planet, except up to 144000 people, who were trying to build such a society. |

User ID: 801666 United States 10/24/2009 11:42 AM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It shows maturity to take as your belief system the fact there is no God, and simply live that belief. To add to that unbelief by talking hatefully about any 'imaginary' God, not only shows immaturity it is a bold indication that you actually have an emotion towards that which you claim does not even exist. How is that possible? I do not get angry at Santa Claus. Plus, to talk of things such as God is foolish not only in a spiritual sense, but also in real life application. Even if you do not believe in God, to spend time putting energy into this subject simply because you don't like or don't agree with people who do believe in God, or maybe even hate them, says allot about where you may be in life. If we apply that to everyday life we can see a schoolyard bully, most times. But, on the other hand, I will grant that the title 'Christian' does not exempt one from choosing to participate in such childish behaviors either. God can defend himself and needs no help from any man or woman to keep his name Holy. God says many times in his Word that what he does is 'for his name's sake.' We can trust that God's name is most important to him and he is fully capable of representing his own name. Let those who talk continue to talk. We cannot control that. But back to unbelief in God: If you dismiss God, why not live your life daily as if he is irrelevant to you? Live your beliefs, in other words. Don't talk about God to say he does not exist, live it. If something is totally irrelevant to you, you don't care! There is no emotion attached, you simply are indifferent to it. Indifference is total numbness towards something. If there is a disconnect in the information: 'There is no God' and the real life application of that information: 'I have to tell you there is no God,' then there is a problem. The talk does not match the real life actions. Live your belief! Makes sense to me. Last Edited by Jonathan on 10/24/2009 11:43 AM |
