Pros and Cons of Proving God Exists?

[Kidlicious]

I don't know if there's anything you can do to budge him on A. I was worried about B myself, but everyone here seems pretty clear that Kid is a believer in "new and improved Kidism with a dash of Jesus and Kierkegaard sauce," rather than Christianity. Still, I could be wrong, so you may as well keep trying if you feel up to it.

There is in fact good reason to believe you are wrong since you have no problem continuously writing posts purposefuly not making sense.

[Elok]

I've neither admitted nor done any such thing. You just can't read very well, Kid.

Still waiting on textual support for Eve impressing the snake...

[Imran Siddiqui]

I totally get the point. You claim to read the Bible, but don't do anything it tells you to do because you believe God is not a rule maker.

Honest question: Do you believe the Bible is akin to a Constitution and was written for such purposes?

In what way? There are similarities and differences. But there certainly are rules to follow. People are either guilty or innocent depending on whether or not they have followed those rules. The guilty are punished. The exception is Christ who died on the cross so that those who believe in Him could have their debts paid. If there were no rules Christ would never have died on the cross you numbskull.

stop trolling. Me and Imran are trying to have a sensical discussion.

[Ecthy]

Yes, Elok and Im, please post a bit less and leave more room for Kid's sensical contributions!

"Nobody's innocent." --the entire Book of Romans

Why do you call that nonsense?

[Elok]

Why do I call what nonsense? What you said? What I said? I haven't called either nonsense. What you said is simply an incorrect reading of scripture--a misunderstanding, but not outright nonsense.

Now, "Eve wanted to impress the snake" is, if not nonsense, pretty close to it, by right of being a mere invention...

[Kidlicious]

I never said anyone is innocent. You said it's nonsense that nobody is innocent by saying that you only post nonsense.

The Bible is a story of God written by His people. There only similarities to a Constitution are in Exodus, Levitus, and Deuteronmy - ie the Law that has been replaced by Christ & the Spirit (see: the entire Letter to the Romans).

And Christ died on the cross to free us from our sins. The rules followers were the Pharisees and the Romans. Do you want to be on their side?

[Kidlicious]

Oh the Law has been replaced? So it's ok to murder? No, if you murder you are guily. You should be arguing with elok, as he believes everyone is guilty of breaking the rules. But you say there are no rules.

[Imran Siddiqui]

I am sorry that you have not read the Bible. However, I do hope you rectify that.
