    You ignore by acknowledging and commenting. Hmmm. New definition of ignore.

    So just how good are you oh Godless one? Looking at our rage, anger and filthy mouth, I'm not seeing it.

    I don't know, that is the question, why is God both good and evil in the bible?

    your last post was #666, a sign maybe... ;)

    Are there men of science? You consider them competent. Try again.

    Where'd you figure Godless was the correct ASSumption? Just not big on the idiocy of bible inerrancy.
    Maybe you need to move. And what you get is what you do.

    I see. So punishment is evil.

    Now since we Christians live under Grace, show me the 'evil' in the NT. You did say the Bible was 'evil'. Didn't you? And remember that Jesus is God incarnate therefore that makes Jesus 'evil' too. Think before you respond.

    Yes, there are men of science. That wasn't related to what you asked, now is it?

    It is subjective, but IMO, hurting others in any way. Most people I know don't go around hurting others and try to avoid it.

    You said men are incompetent. Therefore scientists are incompetent. So which is it? Are scientists competent and creationists are incompetent? Or vice versa? You can't have it both ways.

    Stupid punishment is. Stoning someone, falls into the hurting others category. And why, because he wanted sticks. OOOHHH.

    God is very different in the NT. He had a change of heart? Or it is a different view mankind had of God when they wrote the later books.

    You don't have to kick the liberal bee hive very hard to get them buzzing like crazy. These people live to be offended by things. They wake up every morning looking for new reasons to be angry.

    Go back a read the string of threads over. See if you can comprehend this time. Start with your 1st post asking if God created science. Else you just be a troll.

    So you decide what stupid punishment is. That is why you are your own god. Therein lies your problem.

    God of the NT is the God of the OT. This is where you have shown your ignorance.

    You are correct. It went like this.

    Don't be afraid to answer it.
    No. If God created science why did he create man to be so incompetent in the beginning? Actually, as a species, we are still fairly incompetent.

    ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

    So I will ask you this. Are all scientists competent? They are all infallible? Does the scientific community accept all of their works as competent?

    stoning someone to death for picking up sticks on the weekend is far from punishment... it's evil

    I did not call the bible 'evil', I asked you why God did evil things in the bible...

    God in the old testament is the same God as in the new testament

    are you saying old testament God was evil, but the God of the new testament is good?

    Then the Godless are evil also. Are they not? Or are all of them pillars of moral rectitude?

    I am god-free and I don't think stoning humans to death is right or moral, it's cruel and evil.... ...but it is approved by your god...

    You have decided that God is evil. Now are the Godless evil? Why won't you answer this? Hypocrisy?

    These kids have a lot to learn. Hopefully, as they exit puberty, they'll evolve,

    I accept that people will commit evil. All of them are capable. Including the Godless. Do you agree?

    What is in my statement. Man was created incompetent, and we are still fairly incompetent today.
    So are scientists part of mankind?
    Why did God create mankind so incompetent in the 1st place, this is his image?

    You asked for a definition of evil. I gave it, no comment from you.
    What is your definition of evil?

    Not all scientists are competent, and every single one of them is fallible. And no, the scientific community does not accept all of the incompetent scientists work as competent.

    In fact, if you do some research you will find that there are built in checks and balances in science. Look up what repeatability, prediction of results, and peer review. While not perfect by any means, they do stand out as a definitive examples of how science works. Its a rather more pro-active and effecive method to identify the charlatans, fakirs and crooks, than one finds in say, the world of religion.
