@MikeFromHC@wendelltalks Imagine yourself seeing such an horrific scene then you go ahead pull your cell phone from your pocket and say let me take this nice shot and throw it to the world.
I would call you a sick person if you do.
How on earth do you believe this picture ? Ah
@LepcomD A loving God would not require anything to give me eternal life.
Perhaps your idea of what love is differs from mine.
You could also pray for me and prove that the words of Christ are true and that you are a believer.
Jesus promised.
@MikeFromHC Mr Atheist, Jesus Christ loves you. He wants to save you and give you eternal life. You must believe to be saved. It is not yet too late for you to turn back.
A wise man would turn back if he misses his steps. Prove to me you're a wise person
@NotEvolution1 Slavery is condoned by the Bible.
Rape in the Bible requires the *victim* be killed.
Drown babies? And everything else in the flood stories.
That would make god immoral.
@LepcomD@wendelltalks The difference between the man who stood by and watched it as opposed to the god that stood by and watched this is that the man committed suicide afterwards.
Munchausen by proxy to find your God
@MikeFromHC@wendelltalks You mean an actually human being, stood by the poor child and took the image to show it to the whole world. And you believe? Smh. You're so delusional to believe this image.
@ConcernedC4989@wendelltalks The image is it a child starving to death. The man who took the picture committed suicide. This question is not whether some imaginary God could stop it but why and allegedly omnipotent , omniscient, loving God would allow it to happen in the first place.
@MikeFromHC@wendelltalks Idioto. Your comment assumes that the situation in the image is caused by God (or cannot be prevented by God) therefore there is no God and the evidence in the cell is happenstance🤡🍌
@CBNNews Caesar was an accomplished author and historian; much of his life is known from his own accounts of his military campaigns.
"Gallia est omnis divisa in partes tries" is the famous opening line of Julius Caesar's Commentarii de Bello Gallico.
There's more evidence that Jesus existed than Julius Caesar. Does anyone doubt Caesar existed? As for the Scriptures, more ancient pages or fragments of the Bible have survived by far than any other book from antiquity.
As for the Resurrection, the Apostle Paul in I Corinthians 15 says doubters should go talk to the 500 eyewitnesses who saw Jesus post-Resurrection — and since most of them were likely still alive at the time, they could be located to attest to what they saw.
"You've got living history. You've got the people who were there to cross-check whatever message is being put out there. So, it's not as though these things could have been invented and no one would have challenged it. You've got this idea that 'there are witnesses; go investigate them.'"

@darwintojesus Pascal's wager is rather inane. It among other things ignores the fact that there could be millions of alternatives just among the gods .
Leviticus also tells us:
Don't mix seeds when sowing a field or wear a garment with mixed fibers. 19:19
If you have sex with a slave woman, you must then scourge her. 19:20
Don't round the corners of your head or mar the corners of your beard. 19:27
Children who curse their parents, adulterers, and homosexuals must be killed. 20:9-12
Woman with "familiar spirits" must be stoned to death. 20:27
The unchaste daughters of priests must be burnt to death. 21:9
Handicapped people must not approach the altar. 21:16-23
It also tells us what a human life is worth; women are worth less (50 - 60%) than men. 27:3-7
The Young Martin Luther said "Just read the Bible" . He found out what happened when people did and the old Martin Luther said,
"I do not admit that my doctrine can be judged by anyone, even the angels. He who does not receive my doctrine cannot be saved" -- Martin Luther Werke (Erlangen),XXIX , 217-33, on Maritian, 15.
I shall not have it judged by any man, not even by any angel. For since I am certain of it, I shall be your judge and even the angels’ judge through this teaching (as St. Paul says [1 Cor. 6:3]) so that whoever does not accept my teaching may not be saved - for it is God’s teaching and not mine.
Whoever teaches differently from what I have taught, or whoever condemns me therein, he condemns God and must remain a child of hell. - Deutsche Antwort Luthers auf König Heinri
@oliverburdick I considered myself an agnostic for 50 years. Then I found The One True Christian on alt.atheism and talk.origins.
Thanks to arguing with them I realized that I was and am in fact an atheist.
@PastorAlexLove PASTOR ALEX! somebody used AI to falsify your certificate. At the bottom it now says "This certificate is issued for humorus purposes only and holds no legal or medical validity."
They should be punished!
@bolt_carl@JeebusIsDead@ArkEncounter The "method" specifically ignores the part that Jesus mentioned. Three days and THREE NIGHTS.
Matthew 12:40 (NIV) states: "For as Jonah was three days and three nights in the belly of a huge fish, so the Son of Man will be three days and three nights in the heart of the earth."
It's a matter of how the culture handled the passage of days at the time.
Day 1: Friday (before sundown)
Day 2: Saturday (all day/Sabbath)
Day 3: Sunday (early morning)
This method treats the burial (Friday), the rest (Saturday), and the resurrection (Sunday) as three distinct day-periods rather than a 72-hour duration.
Three days after being crucified, Jesus Christ rose from the dead just as he promised. On that morning, an angel descended from heaven and rolled back the stone from the door of the tomb.
“Do not be afraid, for I know that you seek Jesus who was crucified. He is not here, for he has risen, as he said. Come, see the place where he lay" (Matthew 28:2–6).
This spectacular miracle confirmed that Jesus Christ was exactly who he claimed to be—the Son of God. The resurrection also demonstrated his power over death, guaranteeing the hope of eternal life to all who repent of their sins and believe in him.
@JBStonestreet 12?
Between 2.1 to 2.3 million Japanese military personnel died during WW II , the vast majority of which believed absolutely that the emperor was a god and were eager to die for him.
