@TLQ28 @lucky_me_15 "Mostly Harmful" got some rave reviews...

@Mikethewander1 @lordlovesmeso @JadeK526 @patcondell That is one wacky book.

@PhysicistTx @lordlovesmeso @JadeK526 @patcondell I don't know how I found that one but it is on point and I even had to look up the kid part!

All abortions are none of anyone's business.

@Mikethewander1 @lordlovesmeso @JadeK526 That's @PatCondell - love his stuff.

@lordlovesmeso @Mikethewander1 @JadeK526 Okay, you're gay and hate yourself for it. Nobody cares. Come out of the closet and be true to yourself.

@Mikethewander1 @JadeK526 You’re gay because you were sodomized as a child. You just couldn’t stop the feeling of being wanted. You just told me everything. You feel wanted being gay.

@DavidLindsey83 @_Moolah_1 In 1452 Pope Nicholas V imposed papal bull “dum diversas,” encouraging Christians to capture non-Christians, and trade in negro slaves as well as enslaving Muslims, pagans, ALL NON-BELIEVERS. EDUCATE YOURSELF. ldhi.library.cofc.edu/exhibits/show/…

@_Moolah_1 Without Christianity slavery would still be common. All the pagan religions and Islam are cool with it. Old European philosophers were cool with it too.

I feel sad for you if as a black man you are still reading the Bible. The greatest wêãpon formed to strip you from your dignity, your truth and your identity is that weapon of mass dēstruction you refer to as the Bible.

@DavidLindsey83 @_Moolah_1 Christians justified slavery USING THE BIBLE. Later, some of them decided it was actually immoral. Who else was going to abolish it, all those Hindus and Buddhists in America? The Native Americans?

@DillerMug @Renevelation I don't respect yours.

@Renevelation I respect your beliefs.

"Darwinism" by which you mean the theory of evolution has no alternative to it that is worth considering. Neither scientifically nor Philosophically. It is dialectical in nature. Bottom up in nature. Top down necessarily implies infinite regress and question begging.

@DillerMug @Renevelation Bible quote in your profile! That’s the book with the talking animals, giants, man who lived in a fish, woman turned to salt, war in "heaven," beast with 2 horns like a lamb, 7-headed dragon, woman w/ 2 eagle wings, frog-like "unclean spirits" and a petty, jealous, genocidal god!

@Renevelation No, a top-down origin of life and its diversity hasn't been debunked. It's been arbitrarily excluded by the constraints of naturalism. A metal detector can't debunk the plastic under my yard.

@Peterdtruthojo Nice dodge. Address Matt 27, and the claim that Jesus removed "devils" to cure illness.

@PhysicistTx I would love to know everything you believe is true to you? Let’s start from there.

If a Christian left Christ to become something else, they were never a Christian.

@Luis_Lohaus @DennisMJordan @RealJoseAbell @dianemontagna His "lessons"? Read the Sermon on the Mount - do you think it’s wise to advise PLUCKING YOUR EYES OUT, CHOPPING YOUR HANDS OFF? Not to mention taking no thought for the morrow BECAUSE BIRDS DON’T FARM.

@DennisMJordan @RealJoseAbell @dianemontagna And yet, whatever he was, people should learn a lesson from his teachings and compassion. But as I said, have it your way.

JUST IN: Vatican releases Pope Leo XIV’s first encyclical, Magnifica Humanitas, on safeguarding the human person in the time of AI. vatican.va/content/leo-xi… On Transhumanism and Posthumanism, Pope Leo XIV writes: “If the human being is treated as something to be perfected or surpassed, it becomes easier to accept that some lives are less useful, less desirable or less worthy. In the name of progress, ‘necessary sacrifices’ may begin to be justified, placing the burden on the most vulnerable in pursuit of a supposed optimization of the species. … For this reason, a clear distinction must be made. It is one thing to integrate technology within a human-centered, relational vision; it is quite another to be guided by an outlook that devalues human limits and promises a purely technical form of ‘salvation.’” Read the encyclical here: vatican.va/content/leo-xi…

@Luis_Lohaus @DennisMJordan @RealJoseAbell @dianemontagna His "lessons"

@Luis_Lohaus @DennisMJordan @RealJoseAbell @dianemontagna Like this:

@DennisMJordan @RealJoseAbell @dianemontagna How do you know he was a “failed apocalyptic prophet” when you say we can’t know?

@JUNIORTRADER77 The "Holy Ghost" recently explained himself.

Is Jesus an illegitimate child? Who is Jesus's biological father?

@Galatians110Guy @Askwhyisit Seems like such a sweet guy!

@Askwhyisit There is only one lake of fire, and all who reject the Gospel of Jesus Christ will spend eternity there.

In your dreams. Just as every Muslim does not have Jesus Christ as the only escape route from Christian hell, you as a Christian do not have Allah as an escape route from Muslim hell.

@Galatians110Guy @Askwhyisit You're sick and filled with hate.

@Galatians110Guy @Askwhyisit What is it like to live in fear of the same god you are commanded to worship? What a miserable way to go through the only life you'll ever get. I’m so sorry for you. Blame your parents, perhaps?

@BoerInExile @amorangias @0phelia_jones @AtheistPhoenix That's Christian thinking. And there's more:

@amorangias @0phelia_jones @AtheistPhoenix You think stuff just magics itself into existence?

Fatuous argument Even if what was true, which it isn’t, how does that point to Yahweh?

@balajis That's about how I figured it - the edict by Theodosius I (and all emperors who followed), then from the Vatican, caused progress to stifle for some 1500 years.

Western civilization has collapsed before. But a few scholars preserved the ideas that once made Rome great. They made a backup, and it did eventually come all the way back. It just took one thousand years.

@EdwardFrancisJ4 @garryhamm1 Gross generalization. I play guitar and keyboards. I like one song by Springsteen, and CAN'T STAND John Fogerty's horrible voice. Don't take offense, but you're so wrong.

@PhysicistTx @garryhamm1 I find that those who call musicians overrrated have never played themselves or ever have written a song.

Truthbomb! 👇👇
