I used that picture metaphor because the image does not equal the original

Even in the Adam and Eve story, Adam and Eve sin right away. Humans were never said to be perfect.

If you take a picture of the Statue of David, will that picture ever be as great as actually seeing the statue in person?

But really, how do you get being created "in the image if God" = humans are perfect?

I don't think most people here lived somewhere where if you didn't follow a certain religion (or follow it "correctly"), you might be shunned or even physically attacked. Now that would actually negatively affect your life, unlike being forced to go to church every Sunday or to a religion class

But that isn't the religion's fault, it's the followers' faults.

Was it Job's fault when God fucked him over? That book of the Bible alone seems like a good enough reason to dislike Christianity.

That's a really awful example, you know. Whether you believe the Book of Job is literally true or not, the Book of Job is in the Old Testament and Jesus (the namesake of Christianity) comes in the New Testament

Perfect God needs a do over. Right. Good thing he had a continue.

Look, I don't believe the Book of Job is literally true. It's written as an epic poem. But it is a truly great and interesting work, if you haven't actually read it you should.

The Earth isn't a perfect place

why not

Because humans are imperfect I guess

Imagine if the US didn't have a solid foundation of almost 250 years, or if we were derailed by communism or something. Our quality of life would be much worse than it is now.

So you hate people for praying?

I don't believe that God is directly involved with the Earth's affairs, that's the point of Jesus coming to Earth (Why didn't God just do something directly like he does in the Old Testament?). The Earth isn't a perfect place. Some people have it better than others, especially on the world stage. But there's only so much you can do on your own. You have to live a morally good life with the means you have, that's really all most people have the ability to do.

I'm going to respond one more time just so I don't leave you hanging.

First of all, about should/shall, just read the different definitions for each word (https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/should and https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/shall), not just the first definition. I'm not a master of Bible translations, but I feel like I take the same meaning from that verse as you do. Either way, it's great if you can understand the King James Version, but that is gibberish to me, and that defeats the purpose of reading the Bible and the Gospels.

If you have a good heart, that will lead you to do good thing and therefore do God's will. And it's not like if you have a bad heart you can never have a good heart or vice versa. "Having a good heart" just means you are self-aware and that you strive to do things. If someone is paralyzed, are they damned to hell because they can't "do" God's will? I don't agree with people who say you only have to believe in Jesus to be saved.

The word Hypocrite comes up so often because Jesus condemns hypocrites so much, by far more than any other group. Among humans, there really aren't many people who are purely evil. Many humans put up a show of being good or righteous but are evil in their hearts. If you want to talk about themes, it makes so much sense that Jesus condemns hypocrites (most often the Pharisees and other religious leaders of the time) so often.

But this is my last response. I don't feel like discussing this anymore because I could respond to you all day and we'll just go in circles. Thank you for that quality discussion.

Ok now you're just arguing about semantics. Should isn't necessarily a conditional word and shall doesn't necessarily mean definitely. With the "Lord, Lord" thing, I think he's talking about hypocrites who appear good on the outside but are really evil in their hearts.

Originally, were you trying to say that conservatives are bad or liberals are good because Jesus also said if you aren't with me you're against me? If not then good, I really don't have anything more to argue about. I already told you what I think.

I think a decent compromise would be trading some time of Social Security benefits during retirement for paid parental leave now.

For example, you can trade 2 weeks of Social Security benefits for 4 weeks of paid leave. Or maybe you could trade 1 week of benefits for 4 weeks of paid leave for a certain time, then 2 weeks for 4 weeks for a certain time, and so on.

You are right that Jesus reiterates that following him costs a lot and is far from easy. One of the most interesting things about Jesus is that many of the things that he says can easily be turned around to make him seem bad and his teachings not worth following. But the fact is that he talks about the importance of forgiveness and acceptance of others. Whatever the case, Jesus says what he says, and what he says is the eternal truth. I don't know if you personally believe that or not.

Jesus says "if you aren't with me you're against me", but that is not saying if you don't give up all your possessions and live like a monk, you are eternally damned. Jesus is accepting of all and died to save all. A very simple and famous verse: "For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life."

Yeah, guaranteed paid maternity/parental leave sounds great but who is going to pay for that?

This would allow for guaranteed paid leave, but it won't be an extra burden for taxpayers.

I think it means that there is some "essence" (in other words the Holy Spirit) that you can blaspheme against. But what is the Holy Spirit? And how do you blaspheme against it? have no idea. In any case, these sentences are directly connected. They are connected grammatically by "And so I tell you".

I really don't care about the liberal vs. conservative thing. I just though that was a funny observation about modern politics. I care about Jesus' word, and that verse has always puzzled me. It seems like you're trying to oversimplify Jesus' words, and I'm indignant to that.

That entire verse is clearly not just to be taken on the surface. It's full of deep meaning, perhaps more than any other verse in the Bible

I mean, just read the next two sentences. "And so I tell you, every kind of sin and slander can be forgiven, but blasphemy against the Spirit will not be forgiven. Anyone who speaks a word against the Son of Man will be forgiven, but anyone who speaks against the Holy Spirit will not be forgiven, either in this age or in the age to come." It's impossible to take a simple meaning from that.

The context of that quote is pretty important. It's from Matthew 12:22-37 where the Pharisees say Jesus is of Satan.
