@MsYTHicks@AnthonyCumia Bringing a knife into the tent and looking for someone to stab with it is premeditated murder. It doesn’t just happen accidentally:
That’s a contradiction in terms. Supernatural phenomena, by definition, cannot be demonstrated naturally. If you could, it would cease to be supernatural. The divine exists outside his own creation. When he interacts supernaturally within creation, no one could demonstrate that scientifically.
@jerseyh0mo Everyone knows at least one gay person who enjoys hitting on or otherwise encouraging other straight people to at least try their lifestyle. And everyone also knows there is a political lobby that does this, only more aggressively and on a wider scale.
@Provokethoughtz That’s not why anything is or isn’t anythjng. Feeding some individuals shellfish will kill them. People eat shellfish all the time. THAT’S WHY those with shellfish allergies aren’t people. Hope THAT helps.
Does she need to change her mind? “Raising a black son is scary.” Ok, that certainly could be true. “They (a plural pronoun referring back to a previous noun - in this case “black sons”) just get to kill our little black boys (each other) and get away with it.” So black on black crime is “scary” for black moms and ignored by the police and other races.
She may have a point here?
@iamAtheistGirl Of course we require evidence of Jesus coming back to life. We have a bunch of it. That’s the whole point.
What are you even talking about?
@AnthonyCumia George Washington was awesome. Thomas Jefferson was pretty darned great too. This guy’s “cutdowns” are terrific! “Hey you! You’re too handsome to be this smart! You probably leave your lovers way too satisfied”
I disagree. I don’t think you could craft a more elegant story even if you wanted to. An all powerful God comes down and shares in suffering, pain, humiliation, and death, even though he doesn’t have to, so he can tell you when you face hard times “I understand” and you know he really does. Experientially.
@CatWomaniya Well of course. But you also must realize showing your ass for money isn’t exactly building a better mousetrap. Women cashing in can’t take credit for contributing. Because they aren’t.
@machioluoma Churches exist for African poverty? Or, maybe not. Maybe Africa has nothing to do with it? It’s just another place on earth among all the other places?
