I'd ask him - excuse me, Him - this question.

IN the case that I haven't talked to God and just met him/her/it, I wouldn't have anything to ask, by seeing God and being in the presence, is sufficient.

its really quite simple, the plain facts are seņor spielbergo is El Pollo Diablo. i dont see how that could be possibly refuted.
how about jaws and saving private ryan, those were both very good movies.


et blew but jaws ruled.

Sabine ~ If you are personally attempting to derive 'divine intent' from your observations of natural events, then you may want to re-define yourself away from the monster of the christian fairy tale...for that depiction is statedly and undefendably monstrous.



Color me doubtful of your word.

Perhaps instead of remaining a vague 'christian' you would like to spell out, for us freethinkers, exactly how you do perceive the representation of your God instead of obfuscating in your typical manner.



I didn't say that the boyfriend justified his vicious evisceration of that innocent baby to any deity, Sabine...focus on the issue of omnipresence, if you can overcome your mindsnare...and defend your imaginary omnipotent lover that allowed it to happen.

You might also attempt to drop the facade of insult and directly answer my question ~

Would you let a drunk and abusive boyfriend kick a 13 month old baby so often and hard that the infant's spleen was ripped to shreads on his own spine?

We're waiting...

No I would not let anyone harm anyone if I could. I would not let many tragic things happen. I would somehow condition human beings to think only good, productive, harmless thoughts.

Steve... how do you know that the events described in the Bible are indeed acts of God? what if they were acts done by men using the "shield" of " God said so" to justify them?

That would probably be a question to ask God...

As far as your doubt as to what challenges I may present to other christians whether it is in my real life or cyber activities on christian forums, I will gladly refer you on PM to a christian forum where I do present those challenges. You can then make public statements in this forum if you wish after your personal observation. In the meantime, your doubts about what I stated earlier remain only doubts.

Hello Fenton... in your thread " what kind of christians do you respect most" you have stated after several posts ( not in your OP) that you wished theists did not comment in your thread. As a result I sent you a PM and indicated to you that I was withdrawing from your thread and that had you requested in your OP that theists not partake in comments I would have respected it.
However, Rad as well as myself have equal rights as you do to express our opinions in this Forum unless the Administration has set in place restrictions for certain circumstances.
Just a reminder that the law you set out in your thread does not give you the right to ask anyone to silence anyone else.

Then there is hope for you yet.

Your deity, however, given the attributes via the christian mindset and fairy tale...will have to stay with me, as he is a danger to the community.

How about just creating them perfect...and leaving it at that.

No games, no plan, just a universal block party.

Let me know when you've put God safely behind bars...then I can come visit Him and find out what I'd say to Him

(It's hard for me to be sure what I'd say to anyone in advance, including God)
