Faith writes: GDR writes: In one way, I suppose you can say His death paid for our sins, although frankly I’m not even sure what that means. There are many places in scripture that are very clear what it means, but i've decided not to post them here. If anyone would like to know what they are I'd be happy to quote them in a private message or email. If that is true then God is just a fool.

What is your point? That religion isn't necessary for GDR (or anyone else) to lead a good life, do good things and get into heaven. okay. If that is your belief then fine. You are of course welcome to your beliefs.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

If GDR requires it then it is neither worthless or unneeded.

We need to remember that a living cell may not even be an intended consequence and looking at the available evidence, humans almost certainly were not an intended consequence.

GDR writes: CS writes: Regarding the emergence of life, itself, the environment was radically different and there weren't already living organisms to exploit the proto-lifes that would be gradually emerging. The ones that are emerging today are quickly getting gobbled up. If you're asking why we haven't seen it in the lab, that's just because we haven't gotten there yet. But we will one day. Actually I was talking about it happening in nature. The example you used for the emergence of new cells from inorganic materials does require the pre-existence of cellular life though. It does seem to me that when it is done in a lab it will be an example that it took sentient life to make it happen. Why would you think that? If I make ice in my freezer does that mean it takes sentience to freeze the pond? Does it take sentience to make new cells for your body? And we really have absolutely no way of knowing whether new forms of life are being created even today. The problem is that any new forms of life created today must immediately compete with all those forms of evolved living stuff existing today that have had billions of years of selection for critters that are really good at eating.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

But nature does it without a freezer.
No, it does not take sentience to bring about the process that new cells are formed and yes, we do make new cell, constantly.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

If that's your gospel it's pretty much worthless.

When it comes to proper behavior, morality, laws, justice, right and wrong the Bible says that God says we don't need God or Moses or Jesus or even the Bible.

The Talmud reference is a great example of the total dishonesty of Bible apologists.
First one must understand that Talmudic discourse is expressed as examples, fiction, "What if .." As is so often the case those claiming Talmudic support of the historical nature of Jesus is simply a liar and misrepresenting the Talmud just like they misrepresent the Bible. It's pitiful.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

You should read the Talmud Faith, although I seriously doubt you are any more able to read the Talmud than it seems you are capable of actually reading the bible.
It neither confirms nor discredits Jesus. It simply uses the name in a Talmudic debate totally unrelated to the existence or non existence of Jesus. Remember Faith, some of us here have actually read both the Bible and the Talmud.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

So go read it Faith, give it a try. Forget what you've been told and actually read the source.
Stop believing what you've been told and learn the truth.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Faith writes: Disasters and calamities are God's judgments for sins and crimes. Sorry Faith but that is just another example of how vile and evil the god you try to market is. The god you try to market is worthy only of contempt or derision and must be opposed by any honest moral entity. Disasters and calamities are not discreet and effect both the sinner and the innocent, the criminal and the blameless. For disasters and calamities to be God's judgments for sins and crimes the god must be ignorant, immoral, without empathy, evil, inept and incapable of reasonable action.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!

Faith writes: Amazing. So many here consider it "vile and evil" that sin be punished, apparently believing that liars, thieves, adulterers, murderers, rapists, torturers, should be free from punishment. Remarkable. I see the best you can do is simply to continue lying. Whenever someone points out that you are marketing a vile, evil and immoral god your response is to lie and misrepresent what other people have posted. How pitiful.Anyone so limited that they can only spell a word one way is severely handicapped!
