i haven't attacked you. i said i literally don't care what anyone believes.

you still didn't answer my questions. if god is supposed to help all those people you listed why hasn't he for millenia? when will he start?

you troll on here constantly and that's why i think you have problems. and if you aren't trolling you absolutely do have problems.

You just attacked me again. If you knew anything about spirituality you'd know that this world has rejected God and that's the reason for all the chaos. If everyone followed the ten commandments to their best ability, there's be very little evil. What do you expect? God to come down so people like you can spit at him again? God is loving and caring, he doesn't need to come down in a show of force so people like you can be amazed.

so the world has rejected god and he's not helping out anymore? so why worship him?

you just don't have any answers as to why your book isn't actually doing anything positive for society outside of churches donating to communities. why don't we just turn churches into community outreach centers if god doesn't care about earth anymore?

and what if there are other planets with life, does your god govern them too even though these religions were invented on planet earth?

god is loving and caring except to all the oppressed groups you just mentioned that have been around for millenia and will continue to be around. okay. i got it now.

my question is why would god have ANY gender

it's not a person

Because God is a masculine spirit, there's more to gender differences than private parts.

lmao okay

I went to Roman Catholic Bible study and they told me God doesn't have a gender because he doesn't need one.

another thing is that if the bible is 100% true why are there so many sects of christianity that interpret it differently and branched off into their own religions? and why are there even more religions outside of christianity that took references from the bible and created their own religious texts?

if the bible is 100% true then there shouldn't be so much mis-interpretation.

I'm glad you're at least asking questions. The real reason the earth is still around is so that good can come out of evil. While you're here you can turn still turn from evil and be accepted for everlasting life in God's kingdom. Would you rather God come down and wage war on everyone who is evil? No, he tells us to patiently endure suffering and continue in steadfast love. Your viewpoint is incredibly backwards.

Some of the happiest people are those who endure persecution but live meaningful lives, and some of the most miserable are those who live posh lives but have no direction.

preach it minervo

don't let evil potders taint your spirituality

no i'd rather he come down and help the people he created that are living horrible lives through no fault of their own.

but you just keep talking about spiting evil doers and not helping good people who really got the shit end of the bargain.

That means you're not an atheist but an agnostic.

That moment when the topic goes from 0 to 1000.

Actually... uh... Your entire approach towards Jen in this conversation is what's backwards. If you want to be more like Christ you would show her compassion and listen to what she is saying instead of berating her and trying to debate spirituality like it's some kind of intellectual concept. Put that on your plate!

HE doesn't need one? Or THEY don't need one?

no i'm an atheist. i don't believe in god. i don't believe anything happens when you die.

that's why it's up to anyone's belief because no one knows until you die. it's not like you can come back and tell people what is going on when you're on vacation from being dead.

that's not agnosticism because i don't believe there is a god at all.

If there is no God then how can there ever be justice in life? People are flawed, after all. What hope is there for the oppressed, the orphaned, the abused, the enslaved? And as soon as they speak out, they are punished further? It's people like that who's faith in God is strongest.

what the actual fuck are you talking about? there's no justice in life now and you believe in god. there will always will always be oppressed, orphaned, abused and enslaved people. there have been for millenia. what has your god done about any of it? not a damn thing. get off your soapbox and make a change in your own community instead of sitting on your thumbs waiting for god to do it.

Lmao are u getting irritated? Churches are the number 1 institutions that help the needy, but i see you've lost your cool so i suggest you relax a little ok?

this haha
