I posted that exact same thing
This is my question towards some"organized religion"It is hard to believe that a "loving and caring" God would let 10s of thousands of children die of starvation EVERY DAY! Can you imagine how slow and painful that must be to starve to death?
God and the Bible thing... I'm just not convinced.
And the LORD was with Judah; and he drove out the inhabitants of the mountain; but could not drive out the inhabitants of the valley, because they had chariots of iron.

I challenge any religious person to actually read the bible. One of my favorite verses:
Every faith you mentioned here save for one is an Abrahamic faith. Why not Hinduism, Jainism, Zoroastrianism, Ajikivism, Shinto, or a Traditional African Religion?
Do you think every history book is all written the same in each country? Do you think the Japanese considered themselves the bad guys during world war 2 vs America in their books? Why is slavery mostly excluded and all the horror that black people faced in America in American history books? Whenever you have books written by men stories are told from their perspective or through an agenda
You said no one knows anything..so by your point of view you could be the 1 that’s wrong..have you ever considered that.. what if your belief system is the 1 that’s completely off
Why did you create life knowing it was gonna die? Aren’t you basically god to your children? Aren’t you cruel to create life knowing all the negative things your children will endure in this world? You question god but yet do the same when you had the ability to create life.. do you question your decision making the same as you question a possible higher power
The artist R. Crumb made an illustrated Book of Genesis that shows all of the violence and sex in graphic detail.
From there Elisha went up to Bethel. As he was walking along the road, some boys came out of the town and jeered at him. “Get out of here, baldy!” they said. “Get out of here, baldy!” 24 He turned around, looked at them and called down a curse on them in the name of the Lord. Then two bears came out of the woods and mauled forty-two of the boys. 25 And he went on to Mount Carmel and from there returned to Samaria.
You know this because of? Cause some human scientists said this in their books? You question 1 book belief system that was created by humans , yet you believe another book created by humans.. that’s kinda sounds like a hypocrite.. why do you believe any of these books by humans since you think some are false?
It’s a fact, nobody knows anything about what happens after death. Show me where I said I did

Because you can literally follow the science, it’s not some magical book , you can carbon date bones , trees and fossilized animals. The books were written based off findings. You believe humans just formed spontaneously ?
They all are true and go hand and hand.. that’s why I always say I believe in nature, I believe in math and all those things can help you with a conclusion about a higher power.. humans have been going against nature and math for a long time and that’s why life has been fucked up.. if you start breaking shit down and respecting the 2 society can thrive as a whole.. problem that is there’s certain overseers in the world that purposely goes against these things and that’s why overall man is not where he supposed to be
Pluto was considered a planet for centuries now they claiming it’s not.. most people followed the science and than were told they were wrong all this time.. what if 1 day the science tells you their theory about human creation was wrong
Of course it is. How could it not be? How could a group of people live in Mesapotamia without being influenced by the Sumerians, Akkadians, Babylonians, and Persians? It was inevitable.The crazy part is that large parts of Genesis are appropriated wholesale from ancient pagan religions.
Genesis of Genesis: Where did the biblical story of Creation come from?
The Bible actually has more than one creation myth, and the one you're thinking of seems to have arisen not from ancient Israelite lore but from the central Asian steppes.www.haaretz.com
Pluto actually exists , the debate on whether it’s a planet or dwarf planet is based on its size. Classifying it a planet or not DOESNT take away from the fact it’s an actual thing or planet . By the way Pluto is a dwarf planet so it’s still a planet
That force or energy could be considered a god or higher power.. god could be interrupted in many ways.. so when you ask people do they believe in god or a god you might not understand if they say yes but it’s not the sense that some believe in
Pluto wasn't discovered until 1909, not centuries ago. There was no official definition for what a planet is until the 2006 IAU resolution. But, to your point, science does change over time which is why it's more reliable for discovering truth than religion.
You are opening pandora's box. This is my favorite version of the divine, inerrant book as edited by slave owning cacs.
I’ve always said that, GOD is just a word.my issue is acting like that energy is up there thinking and making decisions on peoples lives. “God” doesn’t give a fuck about your music awards
I mean that list seemed definitive so I was just wondering why it was limited to very Western faiths. That said, you were raised with the right perspective IMO.
What if certain individuals had 1 on 1 encounters with a god how can you say that a god dosent exist.. just like you believe in Pluto there are certain people that may have been shown the existence of something greater than them.. just cause you haven’t experienced dosent mean others haven’t..you ever think of that?
Actually a few tribes knew about the solar system and planet alignments b4 modern day science..they actually talk about 1 of the famous tribes I forget 1 of their names
Maybe they just acknowledging a higher power.. every now and than you got to respect it or show your gratitude.. kinda like thanking your parents for giving you life
Believe in Pluto? I don’t have to believe in Pluto, Pluto is a proven dwarf planet with photos and data collected on it. What thing are you referring to that people have been shown proving a higher power? None of that can be proven. It’s like me saying I saw Santa Clause . So because you didn’t I can say he’s real and exists? That makes zero sense
The Dogon? They didn't know about Pluto. Apparently they knew something about the star Sirius but that was probably cultural contamination. Either way, Pluto was discovered in 1909.
So only acknowledge god when things go your way? That’s ridiculous to me . The arrogance of humans to think god favored them over everyone else. That’s what slave owners used to justify their superiority . God made us the chosen people
They can come and get that Denzel treatment.It is obvious to you and anyone else with a pulse but The faithful will be here shortly to ask you to reject all reason/logic/common sense and admit that Jesus rode a dinosaur while serving as navigator for Noah.
Everybody can’t touch a bball rim and dunk it, so because billions of people are incapable of it does that mean all humans can’t dunk? Some people have the gift to dunk some don’t.. maybe you part of the individuals that can’t touch the rim maybe you not part of the gifted.. maybe only some are shown the existence of a higher power while others are not
Other poster pointed out the tribe that knew about the planets b4 modern science a few post above.. how did they know about planets b4 most scientists did with no technology?The technology needed to observe Planet X (Pluto) didn't exist until the 19th century and it wasn't officially discovered until the early 20th.
LOL again you’re using the superiority angle that racists and slavers use to oppress Africans
