The only time a pencil can leave a mark is when it’s held, placed on the paper, and pushed around. The pencil doesn’t want to write it’s simply able if the right circumstances come upon it. The pencil doesn’t know it can even write at all, but that’s specifically its only use. That is exactly […]
I’ve heard people say they despise AI Christian music. Their reason for the hatred is that it’s all AI generated and that there’s no soul within it. “Where is the Holy Spirit in this“? In part, I agree with them, but I have something they apparently didn’t think about when they said that. Where is […]
Nothing in this world has the proclivity of upper movement. Everything in this world moves down to the dust. A person has to fight tooth and nail to gain a quarter inch up, not to mention maintaining what altitude they just accomplished. Humans have to fight tooth and nail to maintain. Here is the truth […]
The very next moment: Less than 1000th of the time it takes to blink an eye is like a cliff to a bottomless pit. Because we’re so used to making our way to the edge of that cliff, we rarely think about our demise. Living our life on the edge, choosing to revel in the […]
What is the anguish of hell? The Lord Jesus described it as a fire.He described it as a worm that never dies.And in Matthew chapter 8, verse 12 we have this: 12 “But the subjects of the kingdom will be thrown outside, into the darkness, where there will be weeping and gnashing of teeth.” I […]
We have two great Pyrenees dogs. They are absolutely beautiful. They love without question but put a piece of food, one piece, down by the two of them and the two sisters will growl and fight over the piece of food. One word from me and that bitterness stops. Why can’t the people of Christ […]
Put a blob of paint on a white piece of paper. Put a night crawler into the blob of paint. Watch what the worm does as it moves around, the marks it makes. That’s a person’s activity on this earth. If by chance it happens to resemble anything intelligent, it’s only a matter of chance. […]
There are millions who would tell you they’re not concerned about the judgment to come. I have met quite a few who say “I will take my chances“. Such souls are absolutely oblivious to their own sinful nature somehow thinking 50% is good enough. Here: if you want to really see what your percentage of […]
What’s it cost to be a nice guy.? Especially if you have things extra you can give. What’s it cost to be a holy guy in Christ? Regardless, the things you used to own.
What is sinner gonna ever say to sinners that what he firmly believes in Christ might be imparted to their souls? Nothing. How is a man gonna change the ratio between the utterly depraved and helpless worthlessness of man and those who have been made to understand the grace of God? He’s not. These words […]
‘GOD’ is actually NOT necessary. There is ALL the proof in the world that we did NOT come from a god. Many do not believe in the Christian god and they are fine without that. If a person finds that need for a god, then by all means, but the evidence is not there and it really IS a choice and not critical.

Well, when ya see Him, tell Him that stuff. You think you win that stupid argument by presenting it to another man. You’re playin a fool’s game, friend. That’s not my opinion. That’s what God thinks of your “majestic” thinking.

There has to BE a provable Sky Fairy to think anything at all! Tell me that you think YOU know more than the great Richard Dawkins or the incredible Neil deGrasse Tyson! I will trust the geniuses rather than the deluded, thanks!

While you’re touting your heros, your fly is open. Look back. Look all the way back to the origin of things. You say we are but a product of chance. Ok. Let’s buy that a moment.
Now looking back to the beginning, I ask you this: what flipped the switch between nothing and something? But to answer that question we are forced to wonder why there was anything to be “flipped” at all. You will have no answer. It’s not possible to provide conjecture about something so remote and unformed.
At least Christianity offers an answer to such a dilemma. For we are sure there is an eternal God who decided to create.

Christianity offers nothing but myth based on a book that has been rewritten over and over again. There are many ‘GODS’ that could have ‘flipped the switch’ just as you attribute this to yours. I choose to believe that I am a primitive being who might eventually evolve the science to solve that problem. Religious people are primitives who try to remain deluded and in the dark. These are my beliefs and they are just as valid as the next guy’s but are also the only beliefs accepted in the real scientific world.

Two things to hit. You haven’t answered the question from the perspective of atheism. And you hope that you will amount to something because you are part of a larger group of people. You, personally, will amount to nothing. While you uphold a “greater good”. What “greater good” is this movement going to provide you? Christianity provides the answer.
All you need do is open your narrow minded thinking and grasp the aspect of your soul called faith. Already you grasp at it by inhabiting a sort of collective “good”. When in reality you will simply die and mean nothing (That by your own admission)

Hey there, my pompous tiny grape friend, here’s something for us both to chew on.
1Why do the nations rage, and the peoples plot a vain thing?
2The kings of the earth take a stand, and the rulers take counsel together, against Yahweh, and against his Anointed, saying,
3″Let’s break their bonds apart, and cast their cords from us.”
4He who sits in the heavens will laugh. The Lord will have them in derision.
5Then he will speak to them in his anger, and terrify them in his wrath:
6″Yet I have set my King on my holy hill of Zion.”
7I will tell of the decree. Yahweh said to me, “You are my son. Today I have become your father.
8Ask of me, and I will give the nations for your inheritance, the uttermost parts of the earth for your possession.
9You shall break them with a rod of iron. You shall dash them in pieces like a potter’s vessel.”
10Now therefore be wise, you kings. Be instructed, you judges of the earth.
11Serve Yahweh with fear, and rejoice with trembling.
12Give sincere homage to the Son, lest he be angry, and you perish in the way, for his wrath will soon be kindled. Blessed are all those who take refuge in him. A Psalm by David, when he fled from Absalom his son.

I still am gonna wait for concrete proof BESIDES the obvious that humans are a war-like species, unimportant, have been around for only the blink of an eye and will pass from this Earth and be forgotten as species have in the past. We are on a nondescript planet in a very regular unimportant galaxy amongst BILLIONS of stars! To think that we are the center of ANYTHING is absolutely pompous and patently ridiculous! AND you can’t use the Book of Fairy Stories to prove a almighty Sky Fairy who sits on his hands and does nothing at all! Some GOD! Christians seem to have a very LOW expectation of their myths!
