Danny might as well say all blacks are criminals by his logic.

"James, would you have the God of the Bible end all evil that exists in the world today? As in...right this second?"

Yes.

I'd like to see how many members of Congress disappeared in a wink.

Jim

Or that all Muslims believe in violence,

Jim

All true Muslims do. The Muslims that don't believe in violence against Infidels could be equated to Christians that support homosexuality or abortion. They supposedly exist, but they're not real Christians just like Muslims who don't believe in waging Jihad against infidels aren't real Muslims.

So say you.

Jim

Great job by Dad. Glad also to see the church was quick to condemn him. Those Church of Christ people seem a little odd anyways.

Ah well he was Church of Christ not Southern Baptist, so that explains it. Makes about as much sense as your blanket condemnation of Christianity.

Danny, seriously whats going on with you that this is living rent free in your head?

Kind of interesting that Yote can determine who is a real Muslim and decide which of their doctrine they must follow.

Next time I talk to a Muslim I'll ask if they recognize her as an authority to tell them what to believe. lol

Jim

Seriously James, you'd call for an end of all evil?
You'd have the omnipotent God say yep, that's it.... lights out on all evil.... and push the "button."

Blessings,
Mark

Now who's setting the snare? lol

I sense a trap, but yes, I'd put an end to evil if God would push the button for me.

Think of it: wouldn't it be like the Garden of Eden again?

Jim

You do know that would mean lights out for you?

I've considered that possibility, but am somewhat encouraged by the thought that I won't be alone.

Jim

Couldn't A creator of galaxies simply remove the evil from everyone’s brain? Wouldn’t killing everyone simply for being what they were created to be, imperfect, also be evil?

See J Staton: the most interesting people, like Danny, will be going with me.

While you may be stuck with a bunch of Bible thumpers, choir singers, and speakers in tongues.

Jim

Well....enjoy yourself!

My thoughts on this is that the creator doesnt want a bunch of slaves/robots. He loves freedom and wants people to exercise that freewill and judge accordingly.

I can't understand how someone who is constantly on here talking about freedoms that we have lost, and how people are afraid of true freedom, always wants a God that will make them a slave with no choices.

no one is infallible ...all careers have been guilty of the evil of it............ministers, teachers, coaches, congressmen......................most of those also require a degree of trust building...........................yet,,,its usually the church that gets the black eye and the jokes.

B andB you got it wrong. The god you describe, a torture loving sadist, makes no sense to me. I dont think it exists.

I dont desire a god that makes me a slave, I dont think that a creator described in your bible exists. It simply isnt believable.

If there is or was a creator, I dont think that creator is very concerned with the pain that life is full of. That creator is definitely not a loving father
