    Are Humans God ?

    As against that you have ─ God's rules for how to sell your daughter (Exodus 21:7) God's rules for the massacre of surrendered populations eg Numbers 31:9-17 and Joshua 6:17, 6:21 (Jericho) God's rules for mass rape of the young females (the same, Numbers 31:9-17) God's affection for human...

    If Jesus Died...

    Well if I warned you about jumping off cliffs, and I gave graphic details on how your skull will make contact with a rock, and split open, I am not the one bursting your head, and that doesn't mean I take delight in it. Because God reveals the outcome of a wayward people, it doesn't mean he did...

    If Jesus Died...

    The Gibeonites impaled them. The people killed were innocent of any wrongdoing, chosen because they were descendants of Saul. God required their killing as a condition of lifting a famine God had imposed. Human sacrifice, demanded by God. Charming deity that, hey? Screw righteousness...

    If Jesus Died...

    Yes. For example, an all powerful God could, torture a helpless created being, just for the fun of it. However, this is if the all powerful God is lacking the qualities of love, justice, compassion, mercy.... In other word, just a lot of muscle, and that's it. Or just muscle and evil intent...

    If Jesus Died...

    An omnipotent being could express [him]self via any set of personality traits [he] wished, yes. I see a great deal of evidence in the bible that God is not righteous at all, much as righteousness is frequently claimed for [him]. For example I don't think human sacrifice is righteous ─ I think...

    Snacks for Atheists

    Where does this nonsense come from that abortion and infanticide are atheist ideas? Exodus 22:29-30 You must give me the firstborn of your sons. Do the same with your cattle and your sheep. Let them stay with their mothers for seven days, but give them to me on the eighth day. Hosea 13: 16...

    There is no evidence for God, so why do you believe?

    I approach the Tanakh as I'd approach any other ancient set of documents ─ in each case what, when, where, who, why. I have no desire to impose any view on them, rather for them to identify their own narrative, purpose and (often enough) politics. So let me quote you the RSV's translation of...

    The Bible and the Unborn

    Very little in the NT explains anything about the Tanakh. Instead the Tanakh is used in a kind of far out Christian midrash manner to be reimagined for whatever fables pleased the author. Hosea 13 is addressed on behalf of the Jewish God against the Israelites who are accused of forsaking that...

    The Bible and the Unborn

    I find it is one thing to post a verse or two such as Exodus 22:29-30 but why without application. Those verses are explained for us at Luke 2:21-24. On the 8th day was circumcision, and when Jesus was 40 days old he was taken to Jerusalem. Hosea 13:16 and 2 Kings 8:12; 2 Kings 17:17-18; 21:6...

    The Bible and the Unborn

    God appears to have no trouble with ideas like abortion and infanticide. [He]'s the author of every miscarriage in nature, for example, humans included. And the bible sets the tone eg : Exodus 22:29-30 You must give me the firstborn of your sons. Do the same with your cattle and your sheep...

    God is disproven by science? Really?

    Then don’t bother quoting Scripture and sin means missing the mark.

    God is disproven by science? Really?

    I reject your definition of sin as immoral and merely authoritarian, and I justify my definition, though I would usually use the word 'bad' or 'wrong', because it aims to do no harm. You meanwhile think it's moral to have invasive war, massacre of populations, mass rape, human sacrifice, all...

    My Father is the biggest mass-murderer!

    Check out these Bible gems of brutality and violence..... Hosea 13: 16 16 The people of Samaria must bear their guilt, because they have rebelled against their God. They will fall by the sword; their little ones will be dashed to the ground, their pregnant women ripped open.”...

    Why Evolution Is Wrong In Biology And What is Right?

    Samaria (Amos 3:9-10) is Not the Garden of Eden Fallen mankind could have easily made animal kind extinct. From Eden lost to Eden regained - Isaiah 65:25

    Why Evolution Is Wrong In Biology And What is Right?

    So it was 'man's' fault that God had to make carnivores? Wow, OK... Nope. Hosea 13:16.

    Proof of evolution -at last-

    The mustard seed was the smallest seed they would’ve been planting so yes true and reliable as well as how the parable describes the truth of the Kingdom of Heaven and also for today. Sorry if you cannot comprehend that but this illustration is how you view things. A dad tells his son to stop...

    How does this disprove the Bible, if the record is true then it’s true.

    Hosea 13:16 King James Version 16 Samaria shall become desolate; for she hath rebelled against her God: they shall fall by the sword: their infants shall be dashed in pieces, and their women with child shall be ripped up. I've seen bible-types try to rescue this by claiming it is mere...
