It must be so shocking and unfair to Christians that the Prophet Mohammad (pbuh) lived to meet his maker where as Jesus was sacrificed, mocked, ridiculed and crucified. Jesus even lamented on the cross.
Matthew 27:46 About three in the afternoon Jesus cried out in a loud voice, “Eli, Eli, lema sabachthani?” (which means “My God, my God, why have you forsaken me?”).

-> @Yassinelet me guess , Islam is a faction of Catholics that was created by the catholic church to destroy Judaism ? right Yassine ?since we're mentioning conspiracy theories I thought I should mention this one since I kept hearing it a lotnearly from every non catholic Christian I ever argued with , they usually think I'm a muslim because of my name
Judaism was destroyed by the Romans in 70AD when the Roman’s after crucifying Jesus went on to destroy the holy temple, destroyed Jerusalem and slaughtered the Jews people.
The Romans replaced Judaism with the Roman Catholic Church. By 325 CE Christianity was adopted by armament as the state religion.
Islam was created in the 7th century. Long after Judaism was reduced to a relic of the past.

This is one of the most ridiculous stories that can come out of Islam. There is an agreement among Islamic sources that the origin of stoning the devil comes from this story.Going back to this "test", where Allah pushes a parent to kill their child only to have the Shaytan-satan- try to stop him. When taken in the context that Allah knows the future, know what will happen, and knows everything... sounds like one sick joke, doesn't it. Now, Google how many parents killed their children insisting they heard a voice claiming to be god asking them to follow His command. Only this time, no lamp shows up!!I just googled this term "hears voices kills their child" and hit hundred of thousands of stories. If you find it sick, wonder how this story sound any different?If I ever visit Mecca again, I think I will throw stones on the Kaaba instead!! But then Allah is not real, none of these stories are real. Now you know.@arabic_translatedmemesdid you know where the hajj -islamic pilgrimage- stoning the devil come from ?the devil was trying to stop ibraham from stoning his very own son and Ibraham throw stones at himNow let me ask you a question ? who comes more as a devil ?the person who ask a father to kill his own son , or the one telling him not to kill his own son ?===========================Just using one's brain when one is ordered to kill his own son one should begin to question themselves and whither they are following a cult/evil god rather than following a righteous god / religion
The Bible tells us God did test Abraham.
Abraham Tested
Genesis 22:1 Some time later God tested Abraham. He said to him, “Abraham!”
“Here I am,” he replied.
2 Then God said, “Take your son, your only son, whom you love—Isaac—and go to the region of Moriah. Sacrifice him there as a burnt offering on a mountain I will show you.”
3 Early the next morning Abraham got up and loaded his donkey. He took with him two of his servants and his son Isaac. When he had cut enough wood for the burnt offering, he set out for the place God had told him about. 4 On the third day Abraham looked up and saw the place in the distance. 5 He said to his servants, “Stay here with the donkey while I and the boy go over there. We will worship and then we will come back to you.”
6 Abraham took the wood for the burnt offering and placed it on his son Isaac, and he himself carried the fire and the knife. As the two of them went on together, 7 Isaac spoke up and said to his father Abraham, “Father?”
“Yes, my son?” Abraham replied.
“The fire and wood are here,” Isaac said, “but where is the lamb for the burnt offering?”
8 Abraham answered, “God himself will provide the lamb for the burnt offering, my son.” And the two of them went on together.
9 When they reached the place God had told him about, Abraham built an altar there and arranged the wood on it. He bound his son Isaac and laid him on the altar, on top of the wood.10 Then he reached out his hand and took the knife to slay his son. 11 But the angel of the Lordcalled out to him from heaven, “Abraham! Abraham!”
“Here I am,” he replied.
12 “Do not lay a hand on the boy,” he said. “Do not do anything to him. Now I know that you fear God, because you have not withheld from me your son, your only son.”
13 Abraham looked up and there in a thicket he saw a ram[a] caught by its horns. He went over and took the ram and sacrificed it as a burnt offering instead of his son. 14 So Abraham calledthat place The Lord Will Provide. And to this day it is said, “On the mountain of the Lord it will be provided.”
15 The angel of the Lord called to Abraham from heaven a second time 16 and said, “I swear by myself, declares the Lord, that because you have done this and have not withheld your son, your only son, 17 I will surely bless you and make your descendants as numerous as the stars in the sky and as the sand on the seashore. Your descendants will take possession of the cities of their enemies, 18 and through your offspring[b] all nations on earth will be blessed,[c] because you have obeyed me.”
19 Then Abraham returned to his servants, and they set off together for Beersheba. And Abraham stayed in Beersheba.

The Beatles – The Best Band in History
Beatles are simply the greatest band ever.
- During the week of April 4, 1964, The Beatles occupied the top five positions on the Billboard Hot 100 singles chart (12 in the Hot 100), the top 2 positions on the albums chart, the no. 1 position in the British singles chart, the first two positions in the British albums chart and the no. 1 position in the British EP chart, – the most complete domination of the British and American charts in history. Today, you’re lucky to have one top 10 album and single at the same time.
- To date, the Beatles have sold over 1 billion records. That’s billion, with a B.
- They have the most no. 1 albums in the British album charts (15), and 17 No. 1 hits.
- They hold the record for the group with the longest span between no. 1 albums in the Billboard albums chart (36 years and 51 weeks, 1964 to 2001). In 2000 – 20 years after John Lennon was killed and 30 years after they broke up, their second major greatest hits compilation, 1, spent eight weeks at no. 1 and sold 13 million copies in its first month of release.
- They boast 20 No. 1 hits in the United States, (19 No. 1 albums), with 24 consecutive Top 10 hits from 1964 to 1976 (six years after they broke up), a record for a group. They also have 12 no. 1 hits in Germany, 23 in Australia, 21 in the Netherlands, 22 in Canada, and 13 in Malaysia.
- According to the United World Chart, the Beatles have 16 of the 100 most successful tracks of all time, and also seven of the 100 most successful albums in history.
- The Beatles recorded four of the Top 10 Greatest Albums of All Time, according to Rolling Stonemagazine, and three of the Top Five. (I’ll ignore the fact that Abbey Road was only No. 14. Blasphemy.)
- They were ground-breaking pioneers almost from the beginning, being the first group ever to employ feedback in 1964’s “I Feel Fine.” One of their first hits, “A Hard Day’s Night,” features an opening chord so revolutionary that it took almost 45 years for someone to figure out how they played it. 1964’s “I Feel Fine” featured the first use of guitar feedback in a song.
- 1965’s Rubber Soul and the follow-up, Revolver, saw more innovation, from the use of a sitar in “Norwegian Wood” to tape loops in “Tomorrow Never Knows.” Then there are the backward vocals in “Rain” (a first) and a Moog synthesizer on several songs on 1969’s Abbey Road.
- Sgt&tag=hooksandhar07-20″>Sergeant Pepper’s Lonely Heart’s Club Band is arguably the greatest album ever made (indeed, it topped Rolling Stone‘s list). While it doesn’t have the strongest material, the album was a landmark in recording. It popularized the concept album — something that would serve as an inspiration to The Who and Pink Floyd.
- “A Day in the Life” from Sgt. Pepper may have been the crowning achievement of the group – a five-and-a half-minute song composed of two suites – one by Lennon, one by Paul McCartney – that are totally different in sound and texture, yet complement each other perfectly. The song features two cacophonous crescendos from an orchestra, the final one climaxing in a single E major piano chord that lasts 42 seconds.
- One may not like songs such as “Yesterday” and “Hey Jude,” but they are unrivaled in their popularity, and the melodies are unforgettable.
- McCartney actually dreamed the tune to “Yesterday.”
- “Helter Skelter” and “I Want You (She’s So Heavy)” are considered two of the first heavy metal songs.
- They have 23 of the Top 500 songs of all time, again according to Rolling Stone – the most of any artist.
- Their third-best songwriter – George Harrison – wrote a song, “Something,” that Frank Sinatra called his favorite Lennon & McCarney song. After recording that gem, he then went on to create a memorable triple album as his first solo release.
- According to stacker.com, 21 of the top 50 most covered songs of all time are Beatles songs.
- Their iconic No. 1 singles notwithstanding (“Love Me Do”, “From Me to You”, “She Loves You”, “I Want to Hold Your Hand”, “Can’t Buy Me Love”, “A Hard Day’s Night”, “I Feel Fine”, “Eight Days a Week”, “Ticket to Ride”, “Help!”, “Yesterday”, “Day Tripper”, “We Can Work It Out”, “Paperback Writer”, “Yellow Submarine”, “Eleanor Rigby”, “Penny Lane”, “All You Need Is Love”, “Hello, Goodbye”, “Lady Madonna”, “Hey Jude”, “Get Back”, “The Ballad of John and Yoko”, “Something”, “Come Together”, “Let It Be” and “The Long and Winding Road”), some of their best songs weren’t even on any singles or B-sides: “I Should Have Known Better,” “You Won’t See Me,” “For No One,” “Across the Universe,” “Two of Us,” “Dear Prudence,” and “Because” are all just album filler.
- They revolutionized the science of recording, using multiple tracks instead of playing live. Producer George Martin used varying tape speeds to make Lennon’s voice sound high (“Tomorrow Never Knows”) and slow (“Strawberry Fields Forever”); he also brought in string musicians to accompany certain songs (“Yesterday”). In another session, McCartney utilized bass drums halfway down a corridor to achieve a staccato sound in “Mother Nature’s Son.”
- In an age where other people wrote songs for the flavor of the day – think the Brill Building songwriters doing all the work for the Shangri-Las and the Dixie Cups – The Beatles surprised everyone by penning their own hits from the beginning. As a result, they helped usher the singer-songwriter movement that popularized the late 1960s.
- The medley on Side B of Abbey Road.
- Their ability to cross over from media and teen idols to musical innovators is one-of-a-kind. Their chart success and initial popularity are unparalleled; but despite their initial fame, they managed to continue to improve throughout their career.
- The group’s song “Ob-La-Di, Ob-La-Da” has been christened the “perfect pop song,” according to scientists at the Max Planck Institute in Germany.
- Their place in popular culture is unrivaled – Their movies, their appearance on the Ed Sullivan Show (in which they played to 74 million people), the “bigger than Jesus” comment, the refusal to play in concert after 1966, the Maharishi, the painstaking production work, the beginnings of the drug culture and LSD fad, “Helter Skelter” and Charles Manson, the “Paul is Dead” phenomenon, Yoko Ono, the rooftop concert, the cover of Abbey Road, the subsequent solo years, and the hit singles created from rough demos of the late Lennon.
- They accomplished all this in just seven years.

DONALD TRUMP has sparked further controversy after reciting the controversial poem The Snake during a campaign rally.
On her way to work one morning
Down the path alongside the lake
A tender-hearted woman saw a poor half-frozen snake
His pretty colored skin had been all frosted with the dew
“Oh well,” she cried, “I'll take you in and I'll take care of you”
“Take me in oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman,” sighed the snake
She wrapped him up all cozy in a curvature of silk
And then laid him by the fireside with some honey and some milk
Now she hurried home from work that night as soon as she arrived
She found that pretty snake she'd taken in had been revived
“Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman,” sighed the snake
Now she clutched him to her bosom, “You're so beautiful,” she cried
“But if I hadn't brought you in by now you might have died”
Now she stroked his pretty skin and then she kissed and held him tight
But instead of saying thanks, that snake gave her a vicious bite
“Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman,” sighed the snake
“I saved you,” cried that woman
“And you've bit me even, why?
You know your bite is poisonous and now I'm going to die”
“Oh shut up, silly woman,” said the reptile with a grin
“You knew damn well I was a snake before you took me in
”Take me in, oh tender woman
Take me in, for heaven's sake
Take me in oh tender woman,“ sighed the snake

@TWS1405
--> @SkepticalOneJFC!! Are you being obtuse on purpose or are you really that dense?Disney interpreted “clear” as being near/close to “white,” for the simple fact that no black person is “clear” in skin tone and/or physical description.Everyone in the entire WORLD has come to know/accept Ariel as “white.” To change that fact, a fact established for quite some time, is “black washing” when you cast a black woman to play a white character.Create your own damn storyline. Create your own new narrative and cast a black woman to play the mermaid. You don’t need to rip off and piggyback a white character in a faux call for diversity. It’s PC BS.
There aren’t too many white heroes left except for fictional characters. Black-washing can only hurt white people.

@IwantRooseveltagain
--> @bmdrocks21Are you capable of defining that term?White supremacy policies? Yes, we used to call them Jim Crow laws. Laws that favor white people over black people, people of means over people with low income and assets, segregation, separate but equal court rulings, laws that disenfranchise blacks from voting and weaken their power in government such as racially inspired gerrymandering. Laws that end up underfunding drinking water in black neighborhoods and cities. There are even some Americans who think blacks are biologically inferior to whites.
Are you saying it is not just Republicans who see blacks are biologically inferior to whites? America is still 70% white. And Jim Crow started in the South which were democratic states also called the Bible Belt. So by definition white Christians are racists.

@ahiyah
I think you'd have to be kind of naive or very easily influenced to get your mind changed in a debate on the internet. That's *if* you genuinely believe what you're arguing for, anyway.I used to think I was pro-abortion, but I didn't really understand the reasons why...it just seemed like the "right" and "logical" way to be. Then I became pregnant, and then pregnant again...and now I have two young children. I'm ardently anti-abortion now.I also used to support a certain country, whereas now I don't care as much.Although we can gain insight and new ideas from people we debate, change is always down to us. You have to be ready and you have to come to your own *personal* realizations, which are caused by experiences you go through and your own learning.
A convincing argument can make you think and reconsider your position.

That is all this BS is.It is a waste of time, manpower and taxpayer money.The lawsuit goes into great detail to list Trump’s crimes, including the fact that he listed one of his penthouse apartment’s at 33,000 square feet to dramatically over inflate its value when it was closer to 11,000 square feet. His personal attorney for 10 years and man at the center of much of these crimes has gone on the record to explain in detail Trump’s involvement in them and how he runs his organizations generally.But as usual, with no thought whatsoever, Trump cultists just hand waive it all away by calling it a political witch-hunt. Why am I not surprised?Alleged. Until the trier of fact says guilty, he is innocent, and the allegations are just that, alleged.
Trump Organization CFO Allen Weisselberg pleaded guilty to all 15 of the charges he faced in the case.

@BrotherD.Thomas
--> @Shila.Shila,YOUR QUOTE OF OUTRIGHT BIBLICAL IGNORANCE CONTINUES: "This is why no one paid attention to other floods. They were all waiting to hear from Jesus."I am really tiring of your complete Bible stupidity and the history of DIFFERENT floods by other civilizations! Each and every other flood is completely different than Jesus' flood as Yahweh god incarnate as He murdered innocent zygotes, fetus' and babies that did not know their parents being evil, and as Jesus watched the drowning of these innocent lives (Hebrews 4:13), understand bible fool?
God saw the wickedness of the human race.
Genesis 6:5 The Lord saw how great the wickedness of the human race had become on the earth, and that every inclination of the thoughts of the human heart was only evil all the time. 6 The Lordregretted that he had made human beings on the earth, and his heart was deeply troubled. 7 So the Lord said, “I will wipe from the face of the earth the human race I have created—and with them the animals, the birds and the creatures that move along the ground—for I regret that I have made them.” 8 But Noah found favor in the eyes of the Lord.
Shila, NO FREE RIDES! You forgot to address my following question to you, ready, or are you to SCARED?1. Barring your ever so weak EXCUSES not to give any information about yourself in your biography, and implying that males are not qualified to address your bible stupidity, then we can only assume that you are a second class woman, is this correct? If you are to SCARED to answer this simple question in front of the membership, it will be duly noted!
How can I be scared or a second class woman when no one dominates or controls Shila?
YOUR ONCE AGAIN BIBLE STUPID QUOTE OF CALLING JESUS A LIAR!: "You forgot Jesus’s status changed after the resurrection."You forgot the following godly passage where Jesus stated: “God is not human, that he should lie, not a human being, that he should change his mind. Does he speak and then not act? Does he promise and not fulfill?” (Numbers 23:19)"God does not change" (Malachi 3:6; James 1:17)Therefore, Jesus cannot change His mind when He stated that He ONLY came for the Jews and NOT for the Gentiles! PERIOD! Do you understand simple biblical logic 101 or do you want to call Jesus' words a LIAR again?
I said Jesus’s status changed after his resurrection.
Matthew 28:18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me.
That made Jesus responsible for not only the Jews but Gentiles too.
YOUR BIBLE STUPID QUOTE AGAIN IN FRONT OF THE MEMBERSHIP: "That was in Genesis where God instructed Adam and Eve to be fruitful and multiply. But the mission is different today. We are instructed to share the Gospels about Jesus and salvation."WRONG! It amazes me in how utterly Bible stupid you truly are! How can you remain upon this forum?Within the New Testament is as follows that make you the Bible fool AGAIN in not being fruitful for Jesus, to wit:"You did not choose me, but I chose you and appointed you that you should go and bear fruit and that your fruit should abide, so that whatever you ask the Father in my name, he may give it to you." (John 15:16)"Your wife will be like a fruitful vine within your house; your children will be like olive shoots around your table." (Psalm 128:3)"By this my Father is glorified, that you bear much fruit and so prove to be my disciples." (John 15:8)"Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain. Unless the Lord watches over the city, the watchman stays awake in vain. It is in vain that you rise up early and go late to rest, eating the bread of anxious toil; for he gives to his beloved sleep. Behold, children are a heritage from the Lord, the fruit of the womb a reward. Like arrows in the hand of a warrior are the children of one's youth. Blessed is the man who fills his quiver with them! He shall not be put to shame when he speaks with his enemies in the gate." (Psalm 127:1-5)
Bearing fruit does not refer to children. We have to be productive as believers and united with Jesus to bring about change. The Gospels means good news. We are to spread the good news of Jesus and salvation.
YOUR RUNAWAY QUOTE OF DISPAIR: "Why are you so insecure? Would it comfort you to hear I will accept you for what you are?"Fine, I accept the fact that you accept the fact that Jesus' true words and I OWN YOU BIBLE STUPIDITY! Thank you!
You appear obsessed with your own stupidity. Why do you believe the Bible caused your stupidity?
YOUR QUOTE OF GRASPING FOR STRAWS THAT YOU CAN'T ADMIT THAT IT IS YOUR FAITH THAT GOES SEVERELY WANTING BECAUSE OF MY BIBLE KNOWLEDGE IS SUPERIOR OVER YOUR GRADE-SCHOOL KNOWLEDGE OF SAME!: "Jesus uses people in strange ways. Your strong reaction to members who speak the WORD shows you need help in your faith.Shila, you have so much to learn biblically to prevent further embarrassment, that it is going to be a long road for you if you remain upon this form, understood?

How does a Democracy retain it's values and traditions when others immigrate to it,I suppose one would expect the immigrants or their children adopt the Democracies values, but that's only an ideal,Though I suppose others might claim it's better the Democracy adopt the immigrants values.Really a problem though, if a Democracy tried to expand fast,If too many new citizens/lands are accepted, throws the Democracies values off, because of the new voters.I suppose Dictators don't have said problem, given their enormous influence,Not that I'd want to live under a Dictator,Just rambling.

-->@ShilaWhite Supremacists are big supporters of Trump because Trump is a white nationalist and racist. Trump and his father were sued for racist discrimination against blacks in one of their housing projects.Nope.Nope.Nope.... and Nope!
During the presidential debate on Monday night, Hillary Clinton raised a 1973 federal lawsuit brought against Donald Trump and his company for alleged racial discrimination at Trump housing developments in New York.
The Justice Department sued Donald Trump, his father, Fred, and Trump Management in order to obtain a settlement in which Trump and his father would promise not to discriminate. The case eventually was settled two years later after Trump tried to countersue the Justice Department for $100 million for making false statements. Those allegations were dismissed by the court.
"Donald started his career, back in 1973, being sued by the Justice Department for racial discrimination — because he would not rent apartments in one of his developments to African-Americans, and he made sure that the people who worked for him understood that was the policy," Clinton said on Monday night.

The FACT remains that Jesus ONLY came for the Jews as I had stated (Matthew. 15:24) and that Jesus said NOT to go onto the way of the Gentiles (Matthew. 10:5) regardless to Him allegedly changing, understood bible fool? Huh? Maybe?Are you calling Jesus as Yahweh God incarnate a LIAR relative to the passages stated above?!“EVERY word of God is flawless; he is a shield to those who take refuge in him.“ (Proverbs 30:5)
You forgot Jesus’s status changed after the resurrection.
The Great Commission
Matthew 28:16 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go.17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you. And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
YOUR QUOTE THAT YOU DO NOT HAVE MERIT WITHIN THIS FORUM TO STAY HERE, OTHER THAN TO GO TO A CHILDREN’S FORUM TO SAVE FACE: “I am still a virgin and therefore without child.”What part of Jesus stating that you are to be fruitful and multiply don’t you understand if you follow His JUDEO-Christian Bible?“And God blessed them. And God said to them, “Be fruitful and multiply and fill the earth and subdue it and have dominion over the fish of the sea and over the birds of the heavens and over every living thing that moves on the earth.” (Genesis 1:28)
That was in Genesis where God instructed Adam and Eve to be fruitful and multiply. But the mission is different today. We are instructed to share the Gospels about Jesus and salvation.
YOUR QUOTE WHEN I EASILY CALLED YOU BIBLE IGNORANT AS TRADESECRET: “That was very dismissive.”HELLO, it was meant to be dismissive to an ungodly person like you that “thinks” they know the scriptures, BUT DOES NOT!
Why are you so insecure? Would it comfort you to hear I will accept you for what you are?
In prayer with Jesus, He has told me to make you another example of what a bible stupid fool you are within the confines of this forum, essentially showing others what a TRUE Christian is not to be like! Sorry.NEXT?
Jesus uses people in strange ways. Your strong reaction to members who speak the WORD shows you need help in your faith.

@Stephen
-->@ShilaYou forgot Jesus’s status changed after the resurrection.I see. And what was his status after the resurrection?
Before his resurrection Jesus claimed he was sent only to save the Jews.
Matthew 15:24 He answered, “I was sent only to the lost sheep of Israel.”
But Jesus’s status changed after the resurrection.

@ahiyah
--> @TheMorningsStarOf course we went overboard with lockdowns, but the damage mostly relates to the economy. People can always move on and get over things. There is lasting damage to global economies and people's finances after the massive disruption lockdowns caused to our supply chains, though.P.S anyone who thinks that kids don't directly interact with each other much, doesn't know much about children because they *still* do. All of my cousins were meeting with their friends before, during and after the lockdowns. From what I remember, it was only from March to June in 2020 that people were reluctant to go out...most of my family members, friends and peers were desperate to resume some normality after those initial three months.Also, to some extent parents have to take responsibility. I.e just because the government says your kids can't go out, it doesn't mean that you can't keep them busy in other ways.
China successfully stopped Covid by introducing lockdowns. China now ranks 108 in the world in cases and deaths. Asian countries followed Chinas example and all have lower Covid cases and deaths.

--> @ShilaCool! So, you don’t think The Beatles are overrated? I thought you did, as they were on my (joke) overrated list in post 37 which you agreed with…
That was your list that you claimed were overrated. I was still working on mine. But the Beatles were a phenomena that started the music industry and deserved much credit.

@Sidewalker
--> @ShilaTrump believes he declassified all documents just by thinking about it. So why is something like his Tax Returns which was on his mind for years not declassified?Did he mentally declassify the documents before or after the FBI planted them.
They are 2 separate issues.
All the documents Trump shipped to Mar a lago was mentally declassified.
The classified documents the FBI found during the search were probably planted.

It is more common for Hollywood to whitewash POC and no black would want to see any black washing of a white hero.

The fact that America is faltering is a big blow to capitalism. Trump even went to Korea to meet Kim Jung Un and learn from him. The tides are changing. China might revert to Communism after it sees the fall of western Democracies. North Korea will be held as a shining example.

White Supremacists are big supporters of Trump because Trump is a white nationalist and racist. Trump and his father were sued for racist discrimination against blacks in one of their housing projects.

@ADreamOfLiberty
--> @ShilaIn a billion years Covid was relatively unknown. How does the human immune system deal with the unknown?This is why people on your side trust "experts", you haven't a clue how things work nor it seems a clue how to begin to determine what makes sense and what doesn't.It's essentially a system for extremely rapid mutation of potential binding sites. A great number of antibody types are released, the ones that work are targeted for further production.
It took WHO several months to identify the coronavirus. Americans believed it came from a bat in Wuhan. Others that it came for a lab in Wuhan. The WHO found no evidence to support those American theories.
But the Covid epidemic was very active in America. Why such confusion?

@Double_R
--> @TarikNot to be that guy but if this conversation really is pre grade school then why are you having such a hard time demonstrating? Just asking 🤷🏾♂️Everyone else reading this conversation understands the difference between objective and subjective. 3RU7AL even had to use the ‘my left is not your left’ example and you still don’t get it. This isn’t a me problem.
If your left is not my left then you are admitting you have a problem and the problem is yours.
You may not use your left like other men do. But that doesn’t make you normal either.

--> @Shila--> @ShilaGet a grip ffs!My point here is that' Persians' are openly rejecting Islam. And the death of this young women at the hands of the ' Islamic morality police' appears to have been the catalyst.The Persian women are rejecting the hijab.you can see them throwing their hijabs into the public fire pits.Yes, I know. It was this ejection of Islam that I was highlighting. It is going to come at a high price to many more too.
The hijab is just a face covering. The women are not burning their Qurans. Women in Iran want to be appreciated for their beauty and not be forced to coverup. We haven’t heard the ugly ones speak yet. They could justify the use of the hijab If they are the majority.

@BrotherD.Thomas
--> @Shila @Stephen.Shila,YOUR BIBLE STUPID QUOTE: “Other accounts of the flood only serve to corroborate the Biblical flood.”I have to ask you, are you trying to be as Bible stupid as the dumbfounded Tradesecret that holds the record upon this esteemed Christian forum as being the #1 Bible ignorant of the membership? Yes?
I had a single exchange with the person you identified as Tradesecret. And yes he did come across are very Bible ignorant. Now I know better.
Listen up Bible inept Shila, the oldest known recording of a global flood is the Babylonian Epic of Gilgamesh from the eighteenth century BC which predates the Genesis accountings of Jesus' Great Flood! Get it Bible fool? HUH? Therefore, our Bible flood in Genesis is copying the Babylonian epic of Gilgamesh, therefore is DOES NOT corroborate the Biblical flood, understood?This is of course is barring the FACT of other earthly floods of other religions, Aztecs (2,300 BCE ), Hindus (6BC), etc., that were written before the Genesis Flood in 3-5 BCE at your embarrassing expense. lol!
It is possible Noah missed the other floods. Noah was not a well travelled person.
Just like your biography which is ZERO, your biblical knowledge is ZERO as well! https://www.debateart.com/profiles/Shila
I didn’t list my qualifications or biblical knowledge because I am not interviewing for a job. Nor did I want to shame all the less qualified males here just from my presence.
YOUR OTHER BIBLICAL STUPID QUOTE: “God then sacrificed his son Jesus to bring salvation to the Gentiles.”HELLO? Paul disagrees with your ignorance when he wrote about the Gentiles as sinners, therefore no salvation to them: “We ourselves are Jews by birth and not Gentile sinners; yet we know that a person is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Jesus Christ, so we also have believed in Christ Jesus, in order to be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law, because by works of the law no one will be justified.” (Galatians 2:15-16).Remember, Jesus ONLY came for the Jews and NOT Gentiles you bible inept fool:Jesus said: “Go not into the way of the Gentiles” (Matthew. 10:5)Jesus said: “I am not sent but unto the lost sheep of the house of Israel” (Matthew. 15:24),
You forgot Jesus’s status changed after the resurrection.
The Great Commission
Matthew 28:16 Then the eleven disciples went to Galilee, to the mountain where Jesus had told them to go.17 When they saw him, they worshiped him; but some doubted. 18 Then Jesus came to them and said, “All authority in heaven and on earth has been given to me. 19 Therefore go and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, 20 and teaching them to obey everything I have commanded you.

And surely I am with you always, to the very end of the age.”
As for Paul in Galatians 2:15-16
Paul criticizes Peter and rejects the doctrine of following the law, while defending faith alone in Christ. He declares that both he and Peter are Jews by nature and not sinners from among the Gentiles, meaning ethnically they are both Jewish, not pagan Gentiles. The Gentile believers are seen as sinners in Jewish social circles, because they are uncircumcised and don’t follow the Old Testament law.
But, Paul claims, he and Peter both know that a man is not justified by works of the law but through faith in Christ Jesus. Again, Paul expresses that he and Peter, both Jews, both have believed in Christ Jesus, so that we may be justified by faith in Christ and not by works of the law. They believed in Christ Jesus because that is the only way to become justified before God, since by the works of the law no flesh will be justified.
Shila, to save you from even further embarrassment, isn’t it about time you take your child like dog and pony show to a “Children’s Christian Forum” where you will be more at home with your equal Bible stupidity with the children? Yes? To save you time, the following is one of many Christian children's forums to join: https://www.worthychristianforums.com/topic/86093-childrens-church/ You can thank me later.
I am still a virgin and therefore without child.
WE HAVE ANOTHER BIBLE IGNORANT FOOL CALLED "SHILA" EQUAL TO TRADESECRET'S BIBLE IGNORANCE, WHAT’S NEW? NOTHING!NEXT?
That was very dismissive.
But I can read your beef is with Tradesecret and his Bible ignorance. I just joined Debateart and my biblical knowledge is still very much a secret.

@TheMorningsStar
--> @ShilaSo Christianity is false because it is monotheism.I mean, among other religions, yes.If the religious perspective is that there is a singular foundation to all things, then it is a monocentric religious view, and thus false.Of course, there could be a singular principle(s), like Plato's One (which you should not mistake as being a God, like some try to), that are Foundational, but that is because they are moreso a principle(s) that the Polycentric Manifold necessarily adheres to rather than being an actual foundation itself (if that makes sense).
Is that why Christians introduced the concept of the Trinity so that it would please both sides. Where 3 Gods are rolled into one.

@3RU7AL
-> @Shilathere is no such thing as "an objective person"An objective person uses reason to consider issues and understands emotion as a byproduct rather than a goal. Facts are considered and are given importance before situation and circumstance are evaluated. The objective person uses logical arguments rather than emotional appeals.even the most rational stoicsuffers from sample-bias when considering factsand motivated-reasoning when choosing which question is considered "important" to them personallythe standard definition of "objective" includes "without bias"and this is impossible for a human to achieve
Scientists are objective.
Why is it important for a scientist to be objective?
Scientists will alter hypotheses and theories when new knowledge is developed. Objectivity is important in science because scientific studies seek to get as close to the truth as possible, not just prove a hypothesis. Experiments should be designed to be objective and not to get the answers that a scientists wants
There are some 8.8 million scientists in the world. That’s a lot of qualified objective humans.

@ADreamOfLiberty
--> @ShilaThe original solution proposed by Trump to deal with Covid was injecting disinfectants,No the original solution he parroted was a lock-down "two weeks to slow the spread".somehow getting sunlight into our bodiesNot an idea he came up with, those vaunted experts were the ones trying to run blood through UV dialysis. Laugh at them if you want to laugh.and finally herd immunity.Which is by definition the only final solution.Trump proposed more solutions for Covid than Biden. But it was Biden who got Covid under control.The human immune system (thank you a billion years of evolution) got covid under control, there was some slight support from vaccines. The vaccines were made by vaccine specialists, not ancient politicians of questionable character and cognition.
6.5 million died from Covid worldwide. Over a million in America died form Covid.
In a billion years Covid was relatively unknown. How does the human immune system deal with the unknown?
