If God were real, you wouldn’t need a book

[Monad Portal]

He didn't. God is the same yesterday, today, and tomorrow.

the new testament contains a new covenant with humanity, and discards the old one.

the golden rule update is a brilliant innovation in human morality.

of course, evil people hate it.

I'm "not sure" either, but I have an explanation that makes a lot of sense....

Jesus/God are the same entity.

How do you know?

 

[ZenMode]

Yup. That's what you're doing!

A court can order sentencing, dummy. Did you know that?

And where is your all-loving, all-moral God to condemn such actions? He's nowhere, because he's more than happy to drown the world because his creation sucks and he's more than happy to kill all the first born children RATHER than killing Pharoah.

Why? He's a psycho/sociopath and the furthest thing from the objective determiner of morality.

Like most theists, most atheists are like you; minding their own business.

He is not an atheist.

A review of this and similar threads will reveal to you that the problem isn't regular people minding their own business. It's the extremists, be they Bible-thumpers or militant atheists, who are the problem.

There is no such thing as a 'militant atheist'. Buzzword fallacy.

FWIW, I don't believe in miracles, only probability. Jus' sayin'.

Math error: Failure to declare boundary. Failure to declare randX. Faliure to calculate.

I already know you belong to the Church of No God.

 

[Into the Night]

is that an atheist belief?

No.

and that doesn't explain anything about the diffences Jesus implemented.

I think god realized he was being too mean and sent Jesus to update the contract.

this is christianity 101.

What 'contract'?

How do you know?

John 1:1

all the Bible scholars still get confused about the moral center of christianity:

the golden rule.

they hate goodness and so do you.

you're all corrupt demons.

The center of Christianity is Jesus Christ, not a rule.

 

[Monad Portal]

The center of Christianity is Jesus Christ, not a rule.

the center of Jesus moral teachings is the golden rule.

it;s not a cult of personality.

it's a rationaly conceived universal morality.

of course evil liars hate it.

Jesus H. Christ. So many words...no improvement.

Here, let me help you. You wrote: "I haven't withdrawn anything. The two changes I made to the ten Commandments made it more relevant today than when God made it. That is the problem that you insist on ignoring, for reasons that are obvious."

Here is how I would have written that bolded part. You may see it as an improvement or you may consider your phrasing to be superior:

The two changes I made to the Ten Commandments made it more relevant today than when your supposed "god" wrote them.

So...does your rendition do greater justice to your position...or does mine?

He only provided two commandments, both with major problems. He stole all the other commandments from God.

And where is your all-loving, all-moral God to condemn such actions?

Why would God interfere with a court?

He's nowhere, because he's more than happy to drown the world

You are making shit up again. Go read the Bible.

because his creation sucks and he's more than happy to kill all the first born children RATHER than killing Pharoah.

Pharaoh is not God.

Why? He's a psycho/sociopath and the furthest thing from the objective determiner of morality.

Pharaoh is not God.

 

[Into the Night]

Too funny! You couldn't bring yourself to just write "3 commandments are God talking ..."

He provided two, both with major problems, which I asked him about. He has so far never answer the questions.

Where did you write this "more moral code"?

Earlier in this thread.

Why would God interfere with a court?

You are making shit up again. Go read the Bible.

Pharaoh is not God.

Pharaoh is not God.

Again....

God drowned the world because his creation sucked. You need to go read the Bible.

God not only allowed Pharoah to kill children, but killed children himself RATHER than preventing the killing of all the children involved. You need to go read the Bible.

 

[Into the Night]

the new testament contains a new covenant with humanity, and discards the old one.

The Old Testament is not discarded. It is still in the Bible. The gospel is the same in both Testaments.

the golden rule update is a brilliant innovation in human morality.

I would agree, but it does not replace any other commandment.

of course, evil people hate it.

Because what they have done to others comes back to haunt them.

John 1:1

The Word Became Flesh
1 In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.

...and what has this got to do with Jesus Christ, other than be part of the godhead?

 

[Into the Night]

Again....

God drowned the world because his creation sucked. You need to go read the Bible.

Nope. Not the reason. Go read the Bible.

God not only allowed Pharoah to kill children,

Pharoah's curse rebounded upon Egypt.

but killed children himself RATHER than preventing the killing of all the children involved. You need to go read the Bible.

Pharaoh is not God.

John 1:1

sounds like a physics problem. better call cypress, the theophysicist.

 

[ZenMode]

Nope.

Yep.

Go read the Bible.

I did, that's why I'm calling you out on your lies.

Pharoah's curse rebounded upon Egypt.

God allowed Pharaoh to kill children and THEN killed children himself. Period. Your spin doesn't change the fact that those things happened.

Pharaoh is not God.

And?
