@___TheGOOdWitch You do understand that choosing not to believe in a deity doesn't mean you have to proselytise? Nor does it require you to be obnoxious. Maybe what's absent isn't just belief, it's the capacity to accept & love people as they are, as the faith you hate teaches

@DickusMaxximun @xonphused Troll

[Andrew Oettle @aoettle]

@DickusMaxximun @xonphused No, it's a question steeped in atheist hubris. The underlying assumption is that believers are blind & stupid and haven't asked that very question, usually early on. The truth is that any answer isn't empirically falsifiable.

@C3D4X @theepicmap This from an obvious Turko-supremacist? Nice try, wrong country

[Andrew Oettle @aoettle]

@C3D4X @theepicmap Clearly the history you read is the heavily redacted and propagandised vairiety, or just the fictionalised account of an Irishman. As for Vlad III Dracula, try finding out how the Romanians view him today🙂. I'm not saying he wasn't extreme, but so were his enemies

[Andrew Oettle @aoettle]

@C3D4X @theepicmap Sorry, I'm not swallowing your Pan-Turkic supremacist propaganda. The Romanians are Indo-European, and Vlad Dracul was a Prince, not a count, and a hero for resisting Ottoman conquest and oppression. And, once again, Magyars (Hungarians) are Uralic, not Turkic

[Andrew Oettle @aoettle]

@C3D4X @theepicmap I'll grant you the Bulgars, first noted in the late 5th century, arriving in imperial lands centuries after the Greeks had been fully assimilated into the empire. You seem to feel a petty need to stomp on the Greeks, maybe because you know they're the natives the turks oppressed

[Andrew Oettle @aoettle]

@C3D4X @theepicmap Maybe you should read history more carefully: the Eastern Roman empire officially became Greek in 620 AD under Heraclius & contued for 800 years as inheritors of empire. Romania? That was imperial Dacia, no turkic roots. The Magyars were Uralic, not Turkic.

[Andrew Oettle @aoettle]

@C3D4X @theepicmap The eastern Romans (Byzantines) were Greek, and they controlled the Balkans long before the Turks left the central Asian steppe. Next time try reading history before you attempt to rewrite it.

@eeebektas @FleeceXI @World_1ntel @theepicmap Are you the pot or the kettle? Remind me why Columbus sailed west? And remind me what Mehmet II did to the people of Constantinople when he took it? And what about all the Armenians slaughtered a century ago?

@ScriptTrooper Both Anakin and Luke had clear progression arcs, both were protected from duels with sith in their introductions. Rey in her first film as a neophyte needed no training to confront & match Kylo Ren both force manipulation and lightsaber skill. 1 is clearly not like the others

[Andrew Oettle @aoettle]

@Maximumatheist The Genesis & Exodus accounts contain many granular references that demonstrate local contemporaneous awareness incl. names, locations, etc. Your argument is facile and vapid

[Andrew Oettle @aoettle]

@BladeoftheS Uh, clearly they haven't studied the history of left-wing governments, like what happens when they run out of ther people's money

[Andrew Oettle @aoettle]

@AtheistTakes Maybe you should consider for a moment, and realise that Christians are usually just as inquisitive and perceptive as you are, and have asked these same questions already. The only difference is that they usually don't jump to conclusions

@Atomsmade This isn't about cherry-picking data to argue against evolution, no rational person seriously doubts common descent with Pan sp.

@Atomsmade Bro, you stop lying. The lower figure is more accurate for a number of reasons including whole-genome analysis. Secondly, I'm not disputing evolution, I'm saying you need to honest.

[Andrew Oettle @aoettle]

@Anyachi4ox Have you actuality read the gospels? I seem to recall that Jesus healing the sick, the lame and the blind were a pretty big part. Next time try picking up a book instead.

@Ernest1588761 The lower image is also how the Cult of Woke has spread, intimately connected withThe Long March Through the Institutions. The 1st image is also a misleading characterisation of history, Christianity wasn't spread by the sword, the notion is antithetical to its core teachings.
