It teaches its followers to accept law and power from a single source only to the point where it starts to be against God. Christianity says to obey law only if it is not evil law. There wouldn't be...

Very common mistake.
In a couple of words: concidering yourself to be less valuable than others does not imply considering yourself less right about something.
More elaborated answer... You know...

Why are you so sure about it? I'd rather called it a hypothesis.

Very simple. You can believe it. You can not believe it. No proof, only evidence.

So, you like formal proofs? OK. Where's your 100% proof that there were no Flood? Is lack of evidence working as a 100% proof of something not happening? Jesus' return within the lifetime of his...

@ JellySlayer:

I'll skip the whole "Dorten is moral and God is not" thing, since, I'm not sure how to explain my point to you, and you do not understand it (yet). Maybe later I'll come up with...

I've bolded your mistake. Not people justified it, but God did.
The whole essence of Old Testament is: mann cannot justify what's right and what's wrong, because his nature is broken. God can.

Facepalm

1) When did I say, that I accepted Scriptures entirely based on what they say?

Is it not written, that God is love?
The Bible is concidered Holy Writings. For me that is axiom. So, all inconcistencies, that seem to be there are result of wrong interpretation. If you interprete...

Contradiction is: God is Love (says Bible) and God is non-loving, non-caring being (says you). You still don't want to accept that you may be wrong...

You've got one part of my question ansswered. Think more.


It did give more knowledge, than they initially had.

None of it implies that he had no knowledge of good and evil. Think of it as of...

I was just pointing out, that literal understanding of every word in Bible is obviously incorrect.

Hae you read what I wrote? I'll repeat: think who will be torturing whom.


Genesis 4:1
And the man knew Eve his wife; and she conceived, and bare Cain, and said, I have gotten a man with the...

I'll answer to this, as other is clearly result of not thinking about the problem, like "who will be torturing whom", and such.

@JellySlayer

You really should read at least some theological books. Cause, now you don't even understand basic concepts of what hell is, what sin is and so on. You know, all your "If I were...

First thing, that google gives me.

Secon and third are almost the same.

Now, don't play dumb here, I know that you are not. I may as well say: how did the world appeared if not by the Word of God?

You know the religious answer to that: Earth was created warm. And...

Atheism is not a religion. Any religion has aspect of "I will do that because I want to be religious". Atheism produces no such deeds.
