Explain to me how "you people" can kill babies with impunity and dismiss it as just an abortion, but criminals convicted by a court of law of capital crimes are entitled to live and be supported at great expense by those who obey the law?

Not really, " For God has chosen the foolish of the world to shame the wise, and he has chosen the weak of the world to shame the mighty. " Gotta love the paradox. It appears to me that "higher IQ" for some is more of a stumbling block than an asset. I am glad to be counted with the foolish. ...

The desire to find God is a powerful documented drive in the historical collective consciousness of our species. Dismissing it as a myth ignores the obvious. Not worth the momentary feelings of superiority the thought conveys. ....

Paradox is the essence of spirituality.

Beliefs only have power when reality is based on them. Mythology will snuff itself out, no attacks are required of me. I observe them with a detached amusement. If Jesus is not the "Truth that sets us free", no worries, evolution will dump Him into the garbage can of time. But if He is true, those who grasp Him will thrive and prosper. ...

For someone who claims that Jesus is a fantasy conjured up by a bunch of Jews, you spend a lot of time attacking Him. Seems like if He truly didn't exist for you, your energies would be much better spent attacking real evils. ...

Interesting how some posts are deleted by the Mods and others are not.

We all proselytize, evangelize, cajole to sway the majority opinion so that it becomes law of the land. Having something crammed down your throat is just hearing something you don't agree with. Which is a common experience in this society. I have learned a lot from the evangelistic atheists on here about spreading one's faith. ,,,

WTF It is the self aggrandized statement of those who believe they are the intellectually elite. It means your response proves to me that you are as stupid as I thought you are. Sounds good to me, I love being thought of as foolish by the so called "wise". ...

And at the end of the day, I trust the Spirit of God and the harsh light of reality to make all things clear. I pray daily that I may have wisdom and understanding and stay vigilant to evaluate and change my understanding as Truths are made clear. I love reproof and correction, it brings me closer to understanding God's purpose. ...

Actually, your response is a tragic minimization of the most important Truth you will encounter in this lifetime. There is "Cherry Picking" and then there is rightly interpreting the Word of God.

"9For we know in part and we prophesy in part; 10but when the perfect comes, the partial will be done away. 11When I was a child, I used to speak like a child, think like a child, reason like a child; when I became a man, I did away with childish things" Not all things are for all times. Most serious scholars of the Bible recognize the Dispensational relevance of certain Truths for certain times and not for others. ...

I have over a 1000 jumps on a heatwave, I absolutely loved it ,except a couple of times when I didn't. Be sure you get a nose modification to slow down the openings. Have your emergency procedures honed to perfection, when they malfunction you are in for a wild ride.

I know, but I still like it. It sounds like something He probably would or did say. Even so I can certainly make direct application to my life. ...

That is easy, He would call the religious white washed tomb stones full of dead mens bones, He would say let the blind continue leading those blind men who follow after them, He would say let those without sin cast the first stones, and He would say Deny yourself, pickup your cross and follow Me !! For I have come so that you can know the TRUTH and have the TRUTH set you free!!!!

I have always been amazed how some can rightly condemn the holocaust of the Jews in WWII and the genocide in other parts of the world, but then turn a blind eye to the mass slaughter of the unborn. If a fetus is not human life then what the hell is it, primordial goo? ...

I would say it is as funny as all of the other self destructive behaviors misguided people engage in that lead to premature death. ...

Bill Nye Debates Ken Ham - Science vs Creationism
maadmax replied to mistercwood's topic in Speakers Corner
It was a non event as far as I am concerned. Science and Spiritual awareness are both necessary to understand the whole Truth. The two are not mutually exclusive. The problem comes when each tries to extrapolate opinions into areas they are not qualified to make statements about. -
That's all nice and frilly and everything, but it doesn't address my question in any way. Conversing with you about spiritual matters if a foregone conclusion. It is like chasing a mongoose around the paw paw tree. All you are going to get is thorns and the occasional bite in the ass. If you would like to rephrase your question, I will get it another try. ...
-
It is the dimension of reality that atheists fail to recognize, that people of faith hold most dear. I love science and study it intently, but spiritual Truth gives an insight into reality that science is incapable of addressing. no surprise, we will just have to disagree on this point ...
-
The way I see it, Truth is the ultimate utility. Belief is only the door, it is nothing without the correct information. Evolutionary speaking, God-consciousness appears to convey greater survivability. As a species , the majority of us are still consumed with that issue. ...

By your same criteria, He would have evolved out of our consciousness long ago. Only that which is true persists. You obviously know to much about the subject to have not once searched for Him. ...
