I had a guy tell me he prays to god every day for word that it is time to start killing the atheists.

maybe when he gets his Answer I should just kill myself?
Hmm any way to verify that claim? Have you any peer reviewed articles? Witnesses? Was this awake or sleeping? Stoned or sober? If the man was real, was there some context that you are omitting, such as some reference to the time God starts to rule the earth..?

Otherwise, thanks for the stories and gossip.

In flaming fire taking vengeance on them that know not God, and that obey not the gospel of our Lord Jesus Christ: (Thessalonians 1:8

Anyone arrogant enough to reject the verdict of the judge or of the priest who represents the LORD your God must be put to death. Such evil must be purged from Israel. (Deuteronomy 17:12

They entered into a covenant to seek the Lord, the God of their fathers, with all their heart and soul; and everyone who would not seek the Lord, the God of Israel, was to be put to death, whether small or great, whether man or woman. (2 Chronicles 15:12-13 NAB

The LORD shall send upon thee cursing, vexation, and rebuke, in all that thou settest thine hand unto for to do, until thou be destroyed, and until thou perish quickly; because of the wickedness of thy doings, whereby thou hast forsaken me.


The fool hath said in his heart, There is no God. They are corrupt, they have done abominable works, there is none that doeth good. (Psalm 14:1



You've finally posted something I can agree with you on. Especially the last one. Thanks for posting.

"No, you would not be directly created by God." An answer without the slightest attempt of an explanation.

Could it be that you are aware that you don't have any explanations... that you cannot have any explanations beyond personal preference?
Based on the data, reproduction is the viable route. Further, in the study of metaphysical effects in relation to that man, the man can be determined to have used reproduction.

This is the question we have to ask in such a case: what could we see that would hint at a descend? What could we see that would hint at a special creation? Are there any other explanations for what we observe? Can we exclude/include these explanations? For what reasons?
What could we see that hints at magnetic field? What could we see that hints at sticky paper? You seem to think that ruling out sticky paper is somehow independent of confirming the property of a magnetic field. "Don't attack my sticky paper, prove your magnetic fields".

As a matter of fact, as we are on the topic of double standards, you've just defeated someone's sticky paper hypothesis, now prove magnetic fields exist.
Or we can conclude: no, they are indeed similar... but they very specially made to be similar. Yep, that's it! This is a valid reason to disagree with the first variant! They could have been made this way!
We can conclude that 2 cars on a desolate planet could not have come from each other due to analysis of the mechanism governing change in said structure. We've done the same in lifeforms.

We can analyse the hereditary material in, say, two humans - Freodin Sr. and Freodin Jr. - and my conclude: hey, they are very similar. They are related!
Why didn't they come from your ability to adapt under anaerobic conditions? Or from cancerous cells? These are also engines of change over time. You didn't because they are demonstratively impotent regarding that function.

Reproduction is also empirically observed. Likewise, there is no reason to think that DNA errors can turn microbes to men as that mechanism is also demonstratively impotent.

We have a basic problem pervading Darwinian thought being manifested here. You must first realize that when you leave Darwinism, you have left science based on materialism and have entered science based on data. In doing so, it's not advisable to compare with other empirical data. k?

Probably one of those people who say they are Christian and in reality are not!
Yup -- either that, or he's someone who got tired of her incessant droning and humored her for a bit.

Do you want God to answer him?

Why? what if God answers him with: "Thou shalt not kill" ?

What if he replies, "Put every man his sword by his side, [and] go in and out from gate to gate throughout the camp, and slay every man his brother, and every man his companion, and every man his neighbour?"

Then she can kill herself, if she is bent on doing so -- but let me point out that it's against the law here.

i have an idea that people tend to get the answer they want, if they just keep on praying for it.

Im hoping that guy doesnt finally (think he) gets Word, but then, people who think they did are common as starlings.

I would think that you would be hoping that guy does get word -- but then maybe you're having self-destructive thoughts that need to be looked into?

That is how God preserves a people from rebellion and unbelief. That day is coming again. HooRah!! I have total confidence in His vindication and vengeance. It will be righteous and honorable and everyone who deserves it will receive it. The fear of the Lord is the beginning of wisdom.

Which is why I consider our morals to be higher than those in the bible.


let me guess.



You would find it immoral to punish everyone on earth, and all of the innocent creatures too, for what two people "did" thousands of years ago?

You think slavery is immoral?

Or taking girls captive for, you know, immoral purposes?

maybe you think it would be immoral to kill children in order to get the king to change his mind? (knowing all along that it wont work anyway)

Drown a lot of animals and babies coz you dont like how some guys are acting?


Surely you'd not think you could do better than that.

What's he insecure about?

And don't Christians bang on about how important free will is?

That day is coming again. HooRah!!

Hoorah? Charming.

Yes! Sister! Blood and thunder! May the wrath of the gods bring devastation to the non-believers. The oceans with turn to blood, and the air will burn with each breath! The four horsemen draw ever closer! They will all pay for their heresy and burn in eternal pain and suffering in hell because our just and caring God really, really loves us all!

Doesn't everyone deserve it?

And why is it that the Christians are always the most cheerful about the wholesale slaughter of people not like them?

I disagree with fundies, and will gladly mock them whenever possible, but I'd never wantto see them hurt -- much less die a horrible death.
