@jontheless4347 If matter as you have described it is illogical due to "unintelligibility", you therefore consider yourself unintelligent and illogical because you are made entirely of matter.
@MartinTweats An EMP device emits EMP, it's not the EMP device that causes the electronic gadgets to stop functioning, it's the gadgets reacting to the EMP emitted by the EMP device.
@Wyd_eshuu Maybe you should try reading a book once i na while, the word "pussy" is short for "pusillanimous" although this is regarded as folk etymology, according to linguistic experts, a separate original term for weak or cowardice came from "puss", cat stereotype.
@snNikki7@dqveed Lmao, the dream is strong in this one... The number of women aren't steadily increasing in these mentioned, it's still male dominated, it will always be.
When Pharaoh first hardened his heart, God was not forcing an innocent man to become evil. Pharaoh had already chosen his direction from the beginning as you can see in Exodus 8:15, 8:32, 9:34. God's hardening was more like removing the brakes from a car that was already speeding toward a cliff. In Romans 1:24-28, Paul explains that because humanity continually rejected God, God "gave them up" to their sinful desires and a depraved mind.
As for the death of Egypt's firstborns, the Bible presents that as a judgment, not preference. Egypt had already spent years throwing Hebrew baby boys into the Nile. The final plague wasn't God suddenly discovering child killing; it was God judging a nation that had normalized it.
This distinction matters because nobody argues that a JUDGE sentencing a criminal and a random person committing murder are morally identical acts. One is judgment. The other is personal choice.
So if anything, the Exodus story doesn't make the death of children morally insignificant. It actually does the opposite. It treats the killing of children as such a serious evil that God eventually calls an entire nation to account for it.
The question is not merely, "Did a child die?" The question is, "Who is acting, and by what authority?" The Bible treats those as two very different conversations!

@Thazhigilla_ He wasn't giving pharaoh over to anything... If I choose to not like you for no reason then it's on me, but if some outer mythical force causes me to not like you then it's not on me. Whether I didn't like you before or not.
