  • "God is an understanding God"

    If there is any claim as demonstrably false as this one, I will be shocked. Your God kills people for disobeying orders that make no damn sense on a whim. He kills for picking up sticks, touching the ark, being of the wrong religion, being born to anyone who has wronged Israel, and many more things equally as stupid.

    Your God is supposed to be omnipotent, yet shows the restraint and forbearance of an insufferable child. He is an immoral egotistical capricious being with no more sense than a desert dwelling nomad hallucinating from thirst.

    "Same as I what I said about Exodus 31:12-15."

    That doesn't work at all. Your God is so understanding that he EXPLICITLY commands the death of this man? He's so forgiving that he orders it done immediately in a needlessly painful way?

    "If you've read the Bible all the way through then you know that lots of foolish people were dealt death quickly."

    Because it happened to a lot of people, that makes it okay? I think your logic is broken.

    "The Bible says to test to see if things are from God. The man should have asked if was God's will, since the other man claim to have spoken by the words of the Lord. The other man even warned him what would happen if he did not heed the Lord."

    There are many crazy people in this world that would tell me that God speaks to them. Should I believe them? There are also men who claim to literally be the second coming of Christ. Shall I believe them as well?

    "The Lord set very strict rules about how the ark was to be handled."

    Can I also make arbitrary rules on things that I can punish infractions of by death? No? Damn. The distinction between deities and mortals is simply one of power and time. The claim to moral authority of your god then is simply his might. Are you then bowing to a might makes right mentality?

    • Dude, your just a pissy little kid. Your responses confirm that. I see that your the type of atheist who's stuck in his own opinion. You never really cared about how I'd respond, you just wanted to shoot a dude down. Fine, whatever floats your boat.

      Later, loser.

      • This

        " So it is fitting that if one has known God and has set his heart against Him to die if he tries to break up the congregation by convincing others to so the same."

        particular bit just set me off. I tend to get a bit pissy when someone says I deserve death.
