When Religion Makes No(n) Sense: Biblical Answers for Tough Universal Questions
Physicists need to understand quantum mechanics before they can understand a standard model for particle physics. Mathematicians need to understand nonlinear differential equations before they can understand strange attractors. I like to think of the future as a force so massive that the entire universe is being pulled forward in time simultaneously.
We have no choice in this matter. The future will happen whether or not we agree to participate. Currently there are no known techniques for us to speed it up, slow it down, or even try to stop it. The pace with which the future is unfolding is constant, and at the same time, relentless.
And yet death is the destination we all share. We spend millions on vitamins, health food, fitness programs, and doctors all to avoid the unavoidable. Or is it unavoidable? People who surround us today are part of the present and will also be part of the future. Yet the future is being created by all of us. If we believe we have a purpose, then so does every butterfly, pocket mouse, and beam of light. Regardless of your beliefs, start with the most basic of all questions — Why does anything exist?
It has been a lifetime journey for me just to formulate the questions. That said, I would love to hear your thoughts. Am I asking the right questions? Do you have answers to these questions, even one of them? Comment below with your thoughts as they relate to futurism and these seemingly unanswerable questions. I first want to thank everyone who has tried to answer these questions. You can find out more about which cookies we are using or switch them off in settings.

I have no problem actually linking to the site and would have gladly done so had the original author asked nicely without the threat. But this is the perfect example of why this original post was so bad. The author was already attacking before even trying to understand. I mean cmon, I used to argue when I was in 3rd grade but then I grew up. I'll let the author post the link in the comments. But will I post the link at the top of the article?
Naw, I would much rather get that nasty letter from this fake attorney to force me to do it first since we live in such a law abiding, sensor reality that is so quick to jump to conclusions and get emotional. I mean seriously, God is fake yet this attorney is real? People are so freaking stupid sometimes. You stole this article, and as the one and only God, I demand that you either give credit to the original author, RePuckett, or I shall smite yee!
You obviously don't exist. I have all these cool little books I read in science class that told me Newtonian physics is where it's at so I'm sticking to my guns! Science obviously keeps correcting itself and erasing its mistakes as it progresses, but that's okay, I am fanatically religious in my scientific views. We finally know enough now to prove you don't exist. We are by far the smartest group of humans the world has ever seen. After all, we know so little about history to even know that there were smarter people than us.
We're shallow, closed-minded, and highly set in our ways of obeying our universe-city professors. Yay for a life void of purpose and growth! I hope your God sends you to Hell for stealing this article. That is exactly what plagiarism is, stealing. I looked in the bible and clearly you need to read a few verses before verse 27 and Jesus was telling a story. So get your facts straight Byotch. And kiss my lovely ass. I have my first headache ever after reading all of your pathetic answers Quinton.
I love watching theists run around, trying to defend their God despite the lack of evidence. It's actually really funny. They are so dumb, believing in fairy tales, and are too arrogant to listen to evidence. Also, all of your articles and your plagiarized articles are extremely biased by that, I mean when they shouldn't be , and utter nonsense. OK - let's be clear here. When you say, "I'm right with the atheists in that most Christians are pretty stupid" - you have immediately shown your own stupidity. So why should I even bother to engage such a fool if you do not want to have an intelligent conversation about God?
As a former evangelical christian I am very familiar with the flaws of Christianity and many of the real questions that are never answered. So I just wrote a page listing many questions I know to be among the biggest challenges. At the bottom I included a comment on the 2 main "answers" of the present article, why I found them indefensible.
Because speaking and making everything happen in a couple of seconds is lame, plus there wouldn't be a whole lot to write about in The Bible. On his way home he crashes into a mini-van killing a mother and her two children and himself. This man led a very faithful life and made one stupid, yet grave mistake. If this man did not ask for forgiveness of his sins before the electrical activity in his brain ceased, then God will judge him and send him to hell to burn for eternity.
Because God love us. He prepared everything for us, so Humans can live a comfortable life in Earth. God's time and our time is different. God never give that to us, the one who's giving that is Satan, all of that happened, is because of Sin, not God. God makes everythings perfect, everything that was Imperfect was happened when human disobey God's order, Ex.
When Eve and Adam ate the fruit from the tree that was on the middle of Eden garden. It is God's desire. Well what do you think? God is Almighty and He's beyond our human thinking. He can do anything that was impossible to Human. It did not said how many time it took on Bible. God is Almighty, He can do anything that was impossible to humans.
The general population of the world today are either atheists or humanists which are both I feel quite the same with coined with different view points but the fact is God does exist he does not need me to prove he does because he does! The first I would like to clarify is forgiveness.
Forgiveness has been debased and messed up to the general public till it is a subject of puns and jokes. The Bible says that forgiveness of God is acquired through personal conviction and the acceptance of the need of a saviour. The intentioned sin, sins that you intentional plan to do and undertake them are abominable before the Lord, but even then if the individual finds God and sincerely asks for forgiveness then he is a new creation, he is forgiven. An absurd question like why a parent can't kill a child on the bases that they are innocent and thus would got to heaven and the parent can then ask for forgiveness is an absurd twisted question.
A true Christian would be abhorred by them. The taking of the human life is a sin that shows degraded mentality of an individual. Christ says that to even be angry against a person and to keep the anger inside is like to kill. It clearly shows God's abhorrence for the sin murder. Secondly the question that why did God spend six days creating everything is fortuitous. When you buy a box of chocolate it is your ability to eat all of it in a day, but it doesn't necessarily mean you will.
So why is that so different from God, he had the power to do it in a second but he chose to do it in a six day span! It is also an example to us, we are to take time in doing things not to rush into them taking time to contemplate and execute. It is not to say God needed time to think that is not at all what I am saying for He knows all things.
What I am saying is it is an example for us, we of mortal flesh to exercise patience in all our endeavours. God is a Failure? No and through all eternity he is not a Failure, but man is the failure. In the beginning in Eden man was the failure. The Lord God always puts before man the way of Life and Death, of Good and Evil he forces not man but gives him the chance to make his own decisions he is a perfect God man is the creation which brought imperfection unto itself.
Man when given the chance to obey God chose the devil. In Noah's time God gave man his freedom of will and yet again man chose to sin. Man had given dominion of the world into the Hands of the devil and the devil caused the rampage of sin yet still God gave the men of those times freedom of choice yet they continued to defile the world so God had to destroy the workings of his hands not due to his failure as a creator but man's failure as creature. To further prove that Jesus Does exist the bible says in John 1: In Genesis 1 it says 'In the beginning God created the heavens and the earth, and earth was without form and void and the spirit of God was upon the waters' furthermore in Matthew Well the word Elohim as rightly said by a friend in this discussion is of plural meaning firstly signifying more than one or two since the Hebrew Eloah is for two in context to God.
Now a rope is made of tiny other ropes but it doesn't stop the rope from being a rope. Neither does an egg being made of a shell, a membrane and a yolk stop it from being an egg. The Trinity work in unison their intention and desires synced. They are the perfect meaning of Unity. Now to the Cause of Suffering and Pain. The Lucifer the first archangel of the Lord now the Devil is the main cause of suffering.
Now the most usual reaction of blaming the devil for the suffering of the world is usually met the with the sarcastic, blame-game, reception but is is truth. The Bible says the devil comes to 'Steal, Kill and Destroy' The Devil has no whatsoever good intention towards man no matter the covering he brings. Yet man turns to blame God for the suffering? The bible clearly states that when man ate of the fruit of Good and Evil removed himself from the jurisdiction of God to under the Devil. We due to sinning put ourselves under the Reign of the Evil One.
We pushed God out of the picture! We forsook him yet he sent Jesus to DIE for our sins. Yet the earth is still not completely removed of this Wicked Fallen Angel he continues to wreck havoc, but the Lord gives us hope. He says he will come again, to take his children home those who bear the Mark of God and the Testimony of Jesus, those who Love the Lord with all their hearts all their soul and all their strength. So you would say where do there the diseases come from?
Where do the wars come from? The Methodist, the Pentecostal, The Presbyterian and all the others. We do not believe in an eternal Hell. The Word of God in Revelation 20 the Bible talks about it. The wages of sin is death. But God, who alone is immortal, will grant eternal life to His redeemed. Until that day death is an unconscious state for all people. When Christ, who is our life, appears, the resurrected righteous and the living righteous will be glorified and caught up to meet their Lord. The second resurrection, the resurrection of the unrighteous, will take place a thousand years later.
If you're really interested in finding out about the true Hell and punishment of the ungodly please read you'll be amazed at the difference between the of biblical Hell, and I dare say this on my own, conjured meaning of Hell. If you have questions on what I have said please speak I would like to be of service to clarify things to you. That is the plumb line we have that we should follow. A lot more effort could have been done to answer the questions. They might seem "stupid" but some people actually have an issue with some of these questions and caused people to doubt.
As i said, Christianity has been so subbed divided that many people believe different things.
For example i don't agree that there are different gods in Christianity but rather that it is adjectives describing God. Neither do i agree with the fact of no Hell at all. I'm not here to have an doctrinal debate about it. Neither am i here to change anyone point views or maybe change mine because you guys showed me in the word that i am wrong because the word is truth, and our opinions and doctrine needs to be aligned to the word of God.
God bless you for your time. What the Protestants did was commendable and many of you died for what i believe today. Flowing into Matth 3: Hope you enjoy the journey. All i want to tell you guys is, don't simply believe what anyone tells you, but check in the word. We shouldn't just believe what the pastor, preacher, minister, friendly blogger whoever tells us just because of their position, but because it is accurate to what the Word says. I'm an atheist and I'm not stumped. Because instead of answering the questions, you basically avoid them by saying "god works in mysterious ways".
That's not a logical answer And if Noah's Ark is only "a story" then what do you think the rest of the bible is?! Have a nice day! I have grown up in a christian family I just don't want to put my complete faith in someone I can't understand. Iv'e accepted him in my heart and still talk to him everyday about everything and anything, but I do not completely put my trust in him, and I know christians always say "You can never fully understand God so just put your trust in him" but many christians say that as if it's so easy and as if they themselves completely trust him, when in all honesty if God asked them to give everything they owned to the poor they would hesitate.
If you completely trust someone, doubting them should be a foreign expression. Therefore I would like to ask questions in hopes that someone can explain them and help me more fully understand and trust God. I have been taught my whole life that God is all knowing. That he knows the future of all of us long before we are even born. So why did he create us? I know it seems like a really dumb question to ask but, if he loved us then why did he create us to go through all this suffering? If he knew that Adam and Eve were going to fall I understand that he gave us free will therefore what Adam and Eve did was completely their fault then why did he create us?
If he knew we would sin and turn away from him, that he would have to kill his son which would pain him greatly, that he would have to send us to hell to burn forever, that lucifer would fall Hell was created for lucifer, but why why didn't God just kill him? Dosen't that mean God knew beforehand about all the suffering we would go through and the sin we would commit so he just let lucifer burn in a pit until we did eventually sin, so he could be set free for a while to torment us? I don't understand why he would ever create us to worship him, I mean he has a whole choir of angels up there worshiping him ALL the time.
So why would he need to create us at all? Why would he literally create us even though he KNEW that billions of us would be sent to eternal torment? Why would he let satan have that pleasure? I thought that he hated him more than anything else, so why let him torture us if he 'loves' us even though we sin? Why create us with free will if we really don't have a choice?
I understand when the user YourNameHere made that whole analogy about hell Just in case you can't be bothered to find the comment: I understand that the firemen are represented as 'God', sinners are represented as the person in the burning building, and the fire represents hell so the analogy does make sense a bit, but then if the firemen were all knowing as god is wouldn't that mean they know the fires going to happen before it happens?
So then in the analogy they would have arrived when you called them rather than before, even though they knew the fire was going to happen and told you to trust them even though they knew what choice you were going to make, and if the fire represents hell that wouldn't it make sense to say that the firemen themselves made the building catch on fire just as God made hell?
So in a way your'e asking me to trust the very people that set my building on fire just because they are well respected by many others and they are 'trying' to save me. Thats probably not a good analogy but do you get what I mean? At this moment I've realised I have completely derailed and this is not just 1 question but actually a few I'm just gonna let you guys figure out what you want to answer and if you can please do. Because he loves us. When Adam sinned the ownership of earth and everything on it was given to Satan and God was making a way to grab that ownership back.
Hence why God had to flood the earth because sin was so grand He wanted us to get a chance at eternal life. That they would recognize him anywhere. And when Jesus died in that cross he thought of us He loves us more than the angles that are up in his presence.. And why is it hard? Hard to follow through and give it all up to Jesus? Because we need to EARN our way into heaven..
So if you wanna buy a car what do you do? You save money and sacrifice buying thise shoes or those clothes at the moment so you can have the money to buy that car.. Sacrifice the things we want now to do the things we need. Fasting, praying, reading the Bible, praising.
He sacrificed it all for us. He was living so righteously before God that he never died. God took him to heaven with flesh and bone. I could keep rambling about this. But no one needs to push this onto you.
10 Unanswerable Questions that Neither Science nor Religion can Answer - Futurist Speaker
Neither try to convince you. Those who want to believe will. These questions are known by Christians and pastors collectively and instinctively, but none would admit it. If only the world new who God is then all the aforementioned questions and more would be answered.
There is a reason why Satan is called a deceiver.
Add new comment
It's more God created Satan but not as a deceiver. Satan had free will and then chose to try to rise above God and deceive. For anyone reading this article It was poorly written and the article tries to answer questions but fails to answer questions by dancing around the original question or coming up with theoretical conclusions. To the author I hope that you can find the time in your life to go to a evangelical church, ask to speak to a pastor all these questions and anymore that you can come up with.
You are completely blind and have yet to open your eyes. I understand that is a very odd concept but you are stuck in the world view so your "rant" has no direction or substance which is why Christians are reading this and out of Love asking you to take a look at your life, the way you perceive the world and ask yourself the question. What if there really is a God. I am a follower of the living God and I know my God is a God of Love so I ask you to reach out to him because this rant looks like a cry for help.
My fellow Christians are here to help you! Since you have 50 questions up there I'm not going to answer all 50 of them but here is an easy one a person who reads the bible would know. Hell is a Lake of fire, Eternal Darkness and the Gnashing of teeth and described in the bible which you said didn't have a definition. As with the rest of your questions most are indeed laughable. I was an atheist until I found how much proof there is for Christ. I wish I could say that I had the faith to believe but truthfully it is the outstanding proof for Jesus and the bible that lead me to faith.
I will keep you in my prayers, please take some time to explore Christianity because the answers your looking for are all there. All 50 listed here and the infinite amount you will come up with trying to discover who Jesus is and why he died for you. I am a high school student, and my friend and i answered the first 15 questions easily. XD But yes, to the author of this article, I hope you find what you are looking for Go to an evangelical church and study God's side of things. I recommend a Foursquare church. They tend to be very Evangelical.
So you are saying that there are multiple Gods in the Bible. You obviously just surface read, like you told Christians not to do in Q. You must've really not read it too, because these are all different names of God. These are all names of the same God. And if you still don't find that the Bible says these are separate names for the same person, you also have to remember that the Old Testament and the New Testament are both written in different languages, those being Ancient Hebrew and Ancient Greek.
Many sayings would be lost in translation. These names are all the same God. And in Answer to Q. When I prayed over it, i watched as it grew 6". How do you explain that using "real" atheist science? Yeah, that must be it -- a high school Christian talking about the nuances and depth of the Bible. They're not the same God. They have different meanings for different reasons. It's not translation, I'm using the original Hebrew. The Hebrews use different words for God for specific reasons. They go a bit deeper than the surface level Christian story. Christians are the ones who need to go back and do their homework -- not the Hebrews.
Can I just say, this was hilarious to read. I am a Jehovah's witness. First of all, the bible tells us that there is only one god, that's an easy answer. The Bible mentions hell, not hellfire. Hell, In the Hebrew language, otherwise known as Sheol, means "nothing" literally. When we die, nothing happens. The bible tells us in revelation that only , people, that God has chosen, will Go to heaven. I could answer them all, but because I am a Jehovah's witness, I will say that the things that's different sects of Christianity believe in have no solid evidence in the bible.
That's one of your questions answered. The reason nothing happens when we die is because, as Jesus said before he resurrected Lazarus, death is just a deep sleep, like unconsciousness or a coma. The book of Daniel tells us that soon, there will be a new system, a new world, where god will destroy the wicked and keep those who serve him to help god, along with Jesus and the ,, to rebuild the earth to a perfect state. Going back to question 2, those who have died will awake from there sleep and have a chance to prove themselves to god.
This who obey god will get everlasting life, and will live without pain and will have a perfect body. This all happens while the , rule with Jesus in heaven. All 3 questions answered. You should read the bible before you ask questions. The word used in These are all different Hebrew words used for different reasons. You can't lump them all into "God" and think you're being accurate. They are different words used for different reasons. If you go back to Genesis 1: And of course in Genesis 1: Us and our are plural, as is the Hebrew word elohim. So you may have a bit more homework to do.
This stuff isn't accidental. There's a reason these different words are used and then translated poorly in English. It's just that most Christians don't study it and know the difference or want to know the difference. Then we have the whole discussion about John There's way more to it than simply one verse and calling it a day. This is just a few verses. We could go into interreligious study which of course Christians won't do and even non-Biblical books where Jesus talks like the Gospel of Thomas and other Nag Hammadi texts.
I've heard your sales pitch before. And I'm not anti-Christian by any means. I just know most Christians take a dumbed down, low level interpretation of scripture, which is fine until you start running into contradictions. When we die we are in a deep sleep, like a coma or like being unconscious.
This is what Jesus said when he resurrected Lazarus.

If the devote their lives to god, do his will, and live a life that is in concordance with gods view of good, then they can be picked. Not only that, they are chosen by Jesus to rule with him over a paradise earth. The book of Daniel tells and speaks of this new paradise earth, and even prophecy's accurately about when it is to come. The , will rule with Jesus on this paradise earth and will help rebuild it. Those who are not announced but still serve god in a way that pleases him will be on the earth rebuilding it, while Jesus and the , will direct them.
I said earlier about how when we due, we are in a deep sleep. Everyone who sleeps eventually wakes up. Likewise, those who did die, whether they served god or not, will be resurrected. That is if god chooses them, as he may not choose Adam and Eve etc. Then, they will have a choice to either serve god or to disobey him, which will ultimately result in death forever.
Those that remain faithful to god will receive perfection, and everlasting life without pain. Actually, the reason they are spelt differently is because no one knew and still doesn't know how to spell gods name. That is why Jews stopped using the name of god because they didnt know how to spell it or pronounce it.
All you have to do is research in some encyclopedias and older books and they will tell you this. There is only one god, and if you want me too, I can show you a verse from the bible to prove it. Its just that, just like Jesus, god has many titles, and also, no one knows how gods name is really spelt or pronounced.
I hope that you understand the true meaning of life and why God have given it to you. This world is not my final home. God has given everybody a mission to complete, or a goal God wants to have you complete it. If you can't complete it, its still fine, the important thing is that you have to believe that Jesus Christ is the Son of God and he suffered for you, so you can earn a eternal life. I also wish that somebody can show you the results that God. Jehovah does not create robot gods, all his creation, including his angelic sons, Jesus, Satan before his fall, and humans.
Jehovah taught them all and gave them free will to choose eternal life or death.
Don't Get Blindsided By The Future
Get a Bible study with people who use the most accurate Bible Owl Ask Google this question: What is the most accurate Bible translation in the world? But one thing I do: Forgetting what is behind and straining toward what is ahead, 14 I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus. Take hold of the eternal life to which you were called when you made your good confession in the presence of many witnesses.
I also wish that somebody can show you the results that God really does exist. Because Noah's ark is a true thing, and it's been proven. Also Ill say that atheists are going into a very wrong directions Now that's the thing thats not just "Oh well,Ill spend some more time in it and it'll be over". No ,no no no, its not how it works buddy. Its eternal,And so you say that people die and nothing comes after? So Ill say that people had a death and a resurrection experience , and they saw hell and the heavens,I really hope that God enters your life buddy, because even if something bad happens like cancers, or any other diseases , its just a life test, our whole life is a test, and death is just another door to the eternal hell either to eternal heavens.
Jehovah God himself directed Bible writers to use his name. For example, he inspired the prophet Joel to write: And what does the divine name, Jehovah, mean? Why is the name missing from many Bible translations? Some feel that Almighty God does not need a unique name to identify him.
Others appear to have been influenced by the Jewish tradition of avoiding the use of the name, perhaps out of fear of desecrating it. As noted above, God directed that his name be included in his Word some 7, times. Obviously, he wants us to know and use his name. Translators who remove the name out of deference to Jewish tradition fail to recognize a key fact. While some Jewish scribes refused to pronounce the name, they did not remove it from their copies of the Bible. Ancient scrolls found in Qumran, near the Dead Sea, contain the name in many places.
Who do they believe gave them authority to make such a change? Only they can say. Those who say that the divine name should not be used because it is not known exactly how to pronounce it will nevertheless freely use the name Jesus. Under inspiration, the Greek translation of his name was recorded in the Bible, showing that first-century Christians followed the sensible course of using the form of the name common in their language.
As was true of all written words in ancient Hebrew, the Tetragrammaton contained no vowels. When ancient Hebrew was in everyday use, readers easily provided the appropriate vowels. About a thousand years after the Hebrew Scriptures were completed, Jewish scholars developed a system of pronunciation points, or signs, by which to indicate what vowels to use when reading Hebrew. Thus, it seems that when they copied the Tetragrammaton, they combined the vowels for the substitute expressions with the four consonants representing the divine name.
Therefore, the manuscripts with those vowel points do not help in determining how the name was originally pronounced in Hebrew. However, there is no reason to be dogmatic. Because that form of the divine name has a long history in the English language. What is the meaning of the name Jehovah? He not only caused the physical universe and intelligent beings to exist, but as events unfold, he continues to cause his will and purpose to be realized.

Therefore, the meaning of the name Jehovah is not limited to the related verb found at Exodus 3: So while the name Jehovah may include this idea, it is not limited to what he himself chooses to become. It also includes what he causes to happen with regard to his creation and the accomplishment of his purpose. I suggest everyone study basic teachings of other religions and compare them. Bible is so corrupted and verses are contradictory. Many stories deemed man-made. Bible was not preserved in original form and of course, translations suffer lost of accurate meaning. In other words, Bible is not considered authentic and unreliable.
I actually came onto this article because I was having trouble believing in my faith. I was confused and conflicted. I wanted to see hard questions being discussed tactfully. What I got was a whiny response to very reasonable and deep questions. Most of them were not even answered! You avoided all of the questions you did not know the answer to.
You sounded like a cranky child, and I still have no answers to my hard questions. If you truly believe that "most Christians are pretty stupid" in the sense that you are referring to yourself as a smart one, I worry what kind of idiots you've been hanging out with! I believe some of these questions warrant a different response. Jesus makes references to the Old Testament and in providing clarity has asked the Jews listening why they nullify the words of god with the traditions of their elders. We understand from Moses that he was advising on right and wrong and eventually gave leaders guidelines for determining these things while he would then be freed up to only hear on the most important or challenging issues.
Additionally, we know through historical accounts that those pharases had to bid for those positions and came from wealthy status rather than humble and spiritual statuses. The most pure of us all are still faulty. I wish I could go through and add commentary for each of these questions. I have observed that through studying philosophy and religion a little or fair amount, you can be drawn away from it.
I read the gospels and learned how incredibly well preserved they are and read unabridged English translations of non-Christian sources from antiquity. Books in the Bible elude to various and segregated places of heaven. Additionally, the book of Enoch referenced by Moses etc. Away from me you evil doer. We can however help ourselves by committing to unbiased self study. After all, as a Christian I ask: My heart breaks when I read this. The answers are not answered correctly and are giving lies to others. I dearly wish that wolves did not have access to sheep skins.
This article doesn't show at all who God is. People ask why God let bad things happen; I asked that myself. I have every reason, by the world's standards, to hate God. If God didn't reveal that He is always with me and loves me, not because He has to, but because He love who I am I'm not perfect, I screw up a lot and am no better than anyone else. He knew each one of us before He created the world, He knew our faults, our mistakes, our shortcomings and He loved us knowing how screwed up we really are. He knew the bad things that would happen but He didn't prevent all of it because then He would have to take away our free will.
I don't want to write so much that you won't read. If you have questions please feel free to email me at: When an astounding number of your comebacks to these questions are "It's not real. I have true good news love was jesus's motive accept his love not the fucking bible or religon and live your life not judging and telling people how to live,we have laws in our countries and that are the ones to follow if you dont want trouble in your life today and forever is already done for all fucking people believe in the christ its that easy.
Im just 17, How can jesus heal? Never heard of Jesus? The simplest, and indeed the only logical way to deal with this question is this: These answer tell us nothing worth knowing. My brother died at 20 years old of testicular cancer. It was a very painful death for him and I. I prayed for weeks up until he died.
I asked Jesus to spare his life. My brother was a good Christian boy. So my question is simple. Why did Jesus kill my brother? There is no Christian answer that works. If Jesus could cure cripples and the blind, then sparing my brother's life would have been simple. The answer of course is that Jesus was simply a good man and not the son of God. And all of Christianity is mythology maintained to employee Christian hucksters. Honestly, I understand both sides to some of the questions, but question 3 is like asking: I then asked did Jesus deny himself?
Love himself , did he even have a self? I asked many religious people I googled the phrase "Did Jesus have a self" and only 3 wesbsite results and none addressed the question no answers What I mean by the self is And you sound any different? You're in love with yourself mate and your bias shows a lot of idiocy. Your answers are no answers at all. You didn't have to stop because you never started.
Sarcasm may be a form of wit but yours is at kindergarten level. Skip to main content. If God is omnipotent all-powerful , why did he take six days to create everything?
