The talking snake was the first one to sin by tempting Adam. So god's creation wasn't perfect at all was it Magus?

Anyway, I was taught that Jesus died to take away our sins. He didn't make very good job of it, did he?

Sure He did, but you have to accept what He did. He opened the door for us, you have to actually walk through it.

So if you are born-again, does that mean you don't have to worry about genetic deformities in your kids?

A what point did Jesus give children born with Downs Syndrome the opportunity to walk through his door before afflicting them?

Of course. And it will cure any diseases you may have, if it doesn't, that's just a 'test'. Also, original sin is not cured. The free will virus can be kept at bay by cutting off body parts that offend you.

They'd succumb more easily to fundamentalist brainwashing, methinks.

Nope, we still live in a corrupt world.

Winston, why the incessant sarcastic and ridiculing remarks in everyone of your posts? You all give me grief for not constantly replying to everyone that asks a question, and not trying to debate or discuss an argument. This is the reason why - whats the point, when 90% of you don't care or want to hear the answer anyway, and if you do want to hear it, you only want to do so in order to come back with an obnoxious remark. What do you bother? I don't think any of your posts have had any meaningful discussion attached to them. They all consist of mocking, and making stupid jokes at Christians. You know, I try to answer questions based on my beliefs as best and truthfully as possible. You could at least try to be a bit less obnoxious.

From your posts, I just said something you could have been expected to say. And don't forget about the plank in your own eye - you have said, here

There's barely anything useful in your posts, either. You just spout religious dogma with no logic. Truthfully? Your self-contradicting posts in the past make that tough to believe.

I know theology is too hard for you all to grasp, but at least try - or if your only purpose of making these sarcastic, redundant remarks is to mock me - then keep it to yourself or let me know so I can stop wasting my time and put you on ignore.

Who was being condescending and insulting there?

Why can't your god be held responsible by omission?
