OFF-TOPIC

You are making this too easy for your detractors, Pat.

Zoltan, you could PM me which detractors you're talking about; I've put that pompous OLD Canadian on ignore… and Buzzer has lost interest, again.

This English model, Tobi, wears 'God' in small lettering and 'GIORGIO ARMANI' in very large lettering.

That's why we have you here and are lucky for it. For you know everything about anything, and are never wrong.

I've seen a few churches that tried to do exactly that only to have city shut them down. The state is often no better than the church at caring for the poor.

just think...one day we'll have adventure tv shows with biblical characters in them



....Ninja Jesus vs. Xena The Warrior Princess



in 3D

Already there, Supernatural, Touched by an Angel, etc.

Same here. An Orthodox priest got creative, though, purposely breaking the lock on the door of a detached school room. It gave him plausible deniability.

I volunteered at a shelter at a Roman Catholic church, and learned just how hard governments make it to help people.

Donations to purely religious entities should not be tax deductible.

ROFLAO It never ceases to amaze me how certain Christian individuals and organizations feel that their interpretation of their scripture is completely correct and everyone else's is completely incorrect. The same goes for individuals within Judaism and Islam.

It would seem to me that god could create a holy book that doesn't lend itself to so much confusion and mystery; something with a truth that is not moot.

I don't know whether she said this during her atheist phase or her Christian phase, but it sure is true!

Love Epicurus! One of my favorite philosophers.

[Kulindahr]

It's ironic that those who most loudly assert their allegiance to Christ are the ones campaigning to make this country a social Darwinistic experiment. I wonder if they know that buying real estate with the intent of keeping it permanently is another thing called "an abomination"?

Good points except the last one. It comes down to this: his premises are wrong, so his conclusion is wrong.

It wouldn't matter how rigorous and logical a holy book was, humans would find ways to twist it.

What were his premises and why are they wrong?

Most of the shelters and food banks around here are run and staffed by Christians.

He presumes that a deity would treat His creatures like toy figurines, without any will or choice of their own.

Generally speaking, it tends to be two separate groups of Christians.

Good Friday -- isn't that the day Jesus died? I don't think that was Good Friday for him. I don't see him up there going, 'Wooo! Party! Thank Dad, it's Friday!'

Then you presume incorrectly, as the quote attributed to Epicurus is unlike his other writing, and it is more probable to attributable it to skeptic philosphers instead. Epicurus says that if gods exist they wouldn't be bothered by us nor want anything from us, neither prayer, sacrifice, or our adulation.

He presumes that a deity would treat His creatures like toy figurines, without any will or choice of their own.

That description applies exactly to the creator described in christian mythology of the divine.

Free will is a relevant concept when deciding between two or more congenial, worthy, fulfilling, choices. Free will is not relevant if a choice existed, say, between infinite fulfilment, security, insight, joy, and contentment on one hand, and despair, decay, and oblivion on the other.

I dunno where you got that. Epicurus says deities would not care at all, which effectively is the opposite of what wool you're trying to pull.

Whence cometh evil?

It cometh from...us!

Folks, God is willing and able to stop all the bad things in the world, but you're just too big of a dick.

[Stardreamer]

So were workhouses.

Which were also run just as badly by government. They seem to have for the large part started as anti-poverty programs by the state.

Nothing is relevant but the quote.

Not in the least. It's shattered in the first few chapters of Genesis.
