Because we still have the mark of original sin. Where do you think we are today? I believe in my heart that a majority of people on the earth today want to be good, and that evil is still the minority. Are you implying that the world today is a majority of evil like before the flood. As for what turns the righteous to evil, that's their own will combined with the temptation many still feel to this day.
Because the sin committed is not just material, but an inherited trait of knowledge for which we carry forever. We carry the mark of sin because of original sin. It is not a simple crime of theft but a crime that put a permanent mark upon us. The fact God has not just smited it all away and remade it all is because He is just and loving. We are made in God's image but we have a predisposition to sin. God allows us to either walk alongside Him or turn against Him through our free will.
The flood was in response to the world turning wicked beyond repair. Humanity had fully given into the temptation of evil. Because God is just, he had to remove evil from the world, but because he loves he spared the animals who didn't know better, and those who did not hold evil in their heart like Noah and his family. Now whether a global flood or a regional flood happened is for our own interpretation, but at the end of the story, when the water subsides, God sets down his warbow in the sky as a symbol to Noah and those who come after that judgment in mass like that would not happen again. As for the evil we have committed in the future is unfortunately the bad side of the free will we are all given by God. Because we have free will, we can commit evil, but we can also do good.
@AKayNoTrace@DeeWaynee94 Because of original sin we are all burdened with the knowledge that we weren't supposed to have. The very same knowledge Adam and Eve gained from eating from the tree of knowledge. We are imperfect.
The crime we committed wasn't just a material crime, we ate from the tree of knowledge and because of that we gained knowledge we weren't meant to have. The children of Adam and Eve would have been cursed with the same knowledge. Rather than smite us down and start all over, he allowed us to live and learn, even if we weren't perfect anymore.
@Damned_Newt@NotImColorzz@Silmatuu I can absolutely concede that most representatives don't actually represent their constituents. But there are some republicans that are taking pro worker stances. Whether they actually are able to do anything in a stacked house of anti union is another story entirely.
@NoSpecialEnt@Damned_Newt@NotImColorzz@Silmatuu I think you should actually talk to a right wing voter instead of making a gross generalization like you did. You might learn that right wing voters are much more focused on personal freedom and prefer less government.
Really cool that they animated it all out but aren't closed captions already a thing or am I missing something. Seems like just another way to sell a new DVD or add an extra option on a streaming service.
@revenant_MMXX "I was looking forward to Pragmata, but I won't be paying for it."
Good. I don't want you to ever play a Capcom game again you fucking parasite.
"The difference is that the DPRK uses authority to safeguard their sovereignty & the wellbeing of their working class" Ah yes, North Korea, the country known for having a well fed and well taken care of working class...
This guy deserves it and he will probably benefit from having to do some hard work.
But it also goes to show that most of the DPRK’s peculiarities that get portrayed as “evils of Communism” in Western media are also things that exist in South Korea, and are oftentimes to a way more excessive degree.
South Korea has work camps, they do public mourning/excessive crying when people die, their intelligence agency is one of the most autocratic in the world, they torture people, they have more surveillance cameras than almost any other country, they have mandatory military service for all citizens, their media apparatus is tightly controlled, they worship public figures & celebrities, they do choreographed public events & military parades, their internet is highly regulated, and they have incredibly strict border policies.
A lot of the things that Americans find weird about the DPRK are just peculiarities of Korean culture. And the South is just as “authoritarian” in nearly every way.
The difference is that the DPRK uses authority to safeguard their sovereignty & the wellbeing of their working class, whereas South Korea uses it to ensure that they remain a U.S. puppet state forever.
i will never forget how elon musk said absolutely nothing at all about the NASA artemis ii mission except one post making fun of that women who took the photo of the launch in the reflection of her glasses. he hates space
"Interesting how Leonardo DaVinci gets the credit for the Mona Lisa while the brush, the paint, and the laws of color theory do all the actual work." You are looking at the micro while they are looking at the macro. You are both correct, but God is the painter, and physics, human engineering, and orbital mechanics are the brushstrokes. Most people would give credit to the artist rather than the paint.
