Creepy Condescending Wonka

:)

If you say it like that it's taken out of context though.

God commanded that man be put to death for breaking the sabbath.

We still kill babies every day, fight wars for resources, kill innocents in those wars, mutilate our bodies, eat all kinds of detrimental substances, and all kinds of perversions. We're still not any better than the people in Biblical times. :l

But we dont live by those barbaric rules.;) The koran on tne other hand,.. has barbaric rules still followed today

They are in the bible,.. no doubt. I can't speak for all Christians,.. but I think most will agree.. the Old Testamant law is a standard for Gods law that was harsh, because of the reality of sin, which meant a brutal punishment at times. But it is also filled with Gods Mercy, such as when Abraham interceded for Lot to save Sodom & Gamorrah. If one cherry picks its easy to find those punishments, but there are more accounts of mercy. Many of the prophets of that time asked God to punish the wicked much more harshly,.. but God did not. God did have a wrath against sin, and the punishment was death. But much changed with the new testament since Jesus died for our sins. He took away those punishments. I know many evangelicals quote the old testament like Leviticus for their argument against homosexuality,... but they do not suggest "stoning to death" etc. Jesus died for those sins,.. so Christians should want to save those sinners from death ( hell ). Again,... I am not speaking for everyone... just me! And I am keep it as short as possible! =)

Many commandments were given to the people of Israel for some special purpose which had become obsolete after the birth of Christ

It's a recent scientific discovery that things break down and the process is not reversible. More or less just a confirmation/expansion of the laws of thermodynamics. If anything were as old as evolution claims, everything in the universe would be in total chaos. I believe in observance science, the stuff we see, rather than the speculations of someone looking for a grant and publicity.

Upvoted, good point.

No biggie.

The Bible contains science we aren't even aware of. One of my great great uncles was an inventor back when the countries power grid was very young. He was tasked with developing an insulator for high tension lines. Existing insulators couldn't handle the voltage and would explode. Be tried many different formula and none worked. One day be was reading his Bible about how Jesus turned water into wine. He knew that water can be changed molecularly like that, but it requires extremely high voltage. This prompted him to research pottery formulas used at that time in the Bible. What he discovered was that the particular type of ceramic they used would withstand the power requirements he needed. Apparently, he patented it and made out quite well. All because of science hidden in plain sight in the Bible.

God does not live inside our concept of time and space and science. We're mere fools without the comprehension of anything beyond our knowledge of our time.

In a nutshell !

That's an excellent point I never considered! Intentional liberal skeptism to get grant $$!

Just kidding...

great

Upvote!

My response meme to my attacking offended special friend. After thought.. christianity is bullied too much. Mods won't remove this one for him.. he's played out. . It will look personal if he whines again, jeopardizing his acct. I got knocked down.. i got up again.. and not allowing whiney sissies to influence my memes.

I actually saw your attempt to reach out.. and I saw his reply. I can't see how mods can neglect this. That's inflammatory to the least. I see it as a personal attack. . Against terms. One does not have to name a specific user name to get a point across. In other words I could say the number one or number 2 guy on the leaderboard is a racist, biggest, Exedra in anyone looking at the main would know exactly who he is referring to. I'm thinking perhaps kanoloa & the mods should be involved now

I didn't see that ass at 1st! I was trying to figure out what your meme meant. We'll played sir... we'll played! Got me!

Unfortunately. . I see a problem in reporting this meme. Your user name "Socrates" is after a real character in history. Think maybe time to take action? I do.. it's building too much steam.

see this one???

Thanks for letting me know about it. That one seems tame comparatively. :)

much tamer,... True - but I look for relationships.

I don't even understand what that means lol.

I know right! But it sounds insanely over the top intelligent in support of creation!

:)

Science actually does not favor a big bang or evolution.

Some of your comments make me wish I could give multiple upvotes to them. That's gold. :)

It's funny! Is it worth submitting? Maybe you could put the two together and submit it, something like this...?

I am sorry for not seeing this sooner and upvoting,... ! Yes,.. SUBMIT!!

oops,.. I just did too. ;)

Well since you used caps-lock, he practically has to submit it now. :) LOL

Of maybe you could put the dual image of the bear and the cartoon ranger in a demotivational template, saying something like 'Creationists vs Evolutionists - the battle is everywhere' (or maybe something more specific to the show). I think it could be pretty funny! :)
