… I guess you’re talking about the Middle East God the Muslims and Hebrews believe in

…. I’m just not sure … I’m of European descent so my ancestors believed differently until Christianity was mandated and people were killed into compliance

…. It’s just complicated to me

Sure the true religion was perverted by Constantine's forced conversion. However, before that took place Christianity was still growing even though Emperors such as Nero burning Christians alive to illuminate his gardens. Must be something to it.

…. Like I said … it’s complicated

… could be argued we conquered the earth and put the Muslims and Hebrews into submission with our Gods

… now post conversion they are getting the upper hand

… we’re weak now

Yes

God has nothing to do with it? The all knowing, all seeing, has a plan for your life and will guide you through that plan guy has nothing to do with those things mentioned in my original post but has complete control over the things mentioned above? You pray to him to ask him for something or to heal someone and think your prayers were answered when those things happen but it was out of his control and just natural selection when the person you prayed to God to heal didn’t get healed? So he has control of everything or nothing?

… that’s another hang up of mine rock

… almost like a sadist if he exists

… very strange religion in my opinion

If I’m remembering my Protestant upbringing correctly

… the Old Testament says only Jews could go to heaven as they’re the chosen people

… everyone else burned for eternity

… then in the New Testament God changed his mind and said us sorry gentiles were allowed an opportunity if we believed in Jesus his son

… I feel sorry for the poor folk that died before God changed his position lol
