Here is one example of what the billandmelindagates foundation does, but he is pretty open about his concern for overpopulation . https://www.gatesfoundation.org/What-We-Do/Global-Development/Family-Planning
His plan to combat it is through ease of contraception, and education and it seems he also thinks increasing the quality of living for people will reduce birth rates. There is numerous youtube videos of him discussing his overpopulation concerns, particularly on the continent of Africa

I investigated user last NP, aupa has not told me results. Not sure if that was an oversight on his part and I may be reluctant to provide the results I have because once you have a claimed cop, their results become less trustworthy

Oh come on. If you can have it that a three day old stinking rotten corpse can come to life again, I can accept that this Pope may have said something, and then someone wrote it down. Do you see the comparison there Singularity? A dead man coming to life and something allegedly said and wrote down. You couldn't get a rolling paper between the obvious difference could you, eh.
I mean we literally have thousands of witnesses to Jesus resurrection, but only one witness to the Pope saying that. You need to stick with your premises. I said the bible was written by men and could be wrong, you took that to mean anything written by men is 100% unreliable and then depended on something written by man to support your argument.
Now we get to the next point. How do we determine reliability. Well Corinthians was written just 20 to 30 years after the events took place, we have texts about Cleopatra we think of as relevant written even later than that. We have the fact that if the large masses who saw jesus after his resurrection were lied about, the people in those areas would have stepped up to easily debunk what Paul wrote.
Behave yourself.
I have covered this a few times now. If you feel like resurrecting one of my old threads be my guest. here ya go:
I knew you were too much of a pussy. Look I will even let atheists be the exclusive judges of the debate. If your points are stronger than mine which you seem to think they are, you should be able to easily beat me. Or perhaps you are aware I would crush you and would rather stick to forums where you can fool yourself into believing you are making better points

"It has served us well, this myth of Christ." - Pope Leo X
Did you hear the Pope speak that or was it from something written by men?

This is a guy who was a threat to the Roman's. They were afraid to move on him. They attacked his camp while people were sleeping and he was only caught because he allowed it. Peter chopped off the ear of a roman and would have chopped off his head if Jesus had not intervened. He could stop lynch mobs because he held command over a lynch mob

It is clear. He walked with a posse of men. This is well documented. They would have gotten fucked up. It doesn't mean he couldn't be challenged. He was challenged repeatedly, but they didn't cross the line because they would have gotten fucked up. Just like sometimes people back talk the police even though they know they are outmanned, but they still typically won't cross certain lines because they would get fucked up.
Jesus started turning over the tables of vendors at the temple and despite him destroying people's livelihoods, nobody raised a hand to him because he traveled with an army. He would have fucked anybody up who stepped in his way. You know of his 12 disciples who are with him and who are recorded as being armed with swords, as we can tell when the Roman's grabbed him. This is already a posse of 13 including Jesus, a small gang, but he had others who followed him around, he also was well received where he went. Crowds were on his side. So him having the support of large crowds every where he went meant that nobody was going to dare step out of line with him. When Jesus drew a line in the sand, saying anyone who has not sinned may cast a stone against the slut, he was basically threatening to stone them with his disciples and the crowd, because somebody that knew that person who stepped over the line would have likely been aware of atleast one sin they committed.
Yes the story doesn't have a lot of detail. We can't be sure what color clothes people are wearing, or even if they are wearing clothes. These details are omitted because everyone reading at the time knew everyone were clothes, just like everyone knew Jesus traveled with a posse who would fuck them up if they did anything other than rebel against him like mouthy teens to the police.

NOPE!! This is what I wrote. : >>>>>> So; simply tell me what the Ancient Hebrew means for "all things" and why- if at all - the Ancient Hebrew meaning is different from the Christian bible meaning. #22 last line.
I already explained it. The meaning would be different because of the lack of words to convey the same meaning in english, and Political motives about translating something a certain way.
That will be your fellow Christians who have trouble with it.
I'M not a christian LOL
BUT IT STILL REQUIRES ONE TO BE DEAD doesn't it! Inother words all of those words you spouted ALL mean the same thing. SEE #22
Yes they would all require somebody to be dead genius, but that doesn't mean it has the same meaning. Being cremated would also require you to be dead, it doesn't make it a synonym for the word dead.
How retarded can you get to think that just because two different words can require the same state of being that they mean the same thing.
That will be your fellow Christians who have trouble with it.
Why would Ingive a shit about what other Christian's think?
The bible was written by men. I have no problem accepting it could be wrong or corrupted or even mostly bullshit.
What we do know is that Jesus Christ died, was resurrected 3 days later and he was seen by thousands of people after his death, proving his supernatural ability and godhood.

The translation of sheol you provided is wrong. It is a grave .
And for one to be in the "supernatural underworld" known as Hades, would they be dead by any chance?
Don't be an idiot. Having you body decay in a grave such as the word Sheol/grave implies is far different than having an immortal soul that resides in hades/hell.
Sheol is not where spirits go. It is where bodies go. The ancient hebrews had no concept of hell.
"All things" in those instances seem derived from a few different hebrew words but the context implies the same meaning. Not sure why that is difficult to grasp

They listened to him because he did not travel alone. He had a rather large posse and his posse was armed. When he was arrested the Roman's waited until his posse was asleep, and one was still attacked by one of his people armed with a sword. He had a very scary presence as do most cult leaders.

@Stephen
You did ask at the end why it would be translated differently. I think this just may be an IQ thing and why you have trouble understanding. Concepts are encapsulated within words okay. English has words for things that don't exist in french, and Visa versa. These are both Latin based languages. Now imagine that ancient hebrew is not completely understood and vastly different from english. The problems with translation can be about 20 fold. We also have the problem compounded by the bible making some uncomfortable statements and in order to sell them to Christian's the bible sometimes needs to be translated in a comfortable way. Which is why in Genesis many say "man was created in my image" when it would be more accurate to translate it "man was made in our image" .

So all those words I have highlighted in your quote above all mean the same thing. They don't mean anything different. Yet you are trying to tell me they are all different when in truth these words all have the same meaning. buried and in the grave.
No, you misread. I would work on your reading comprehension skills. Sheol means under ground, like a grave.
Hades is a supernatural underworld where living entities exist such as the devil and fallen Angel's.
The word all in the context you provided seems to mean the english equivalent. I assume you were arguing with some theist about whether god created evil things and the christian claimed that he didn't. This person would be incorrect. The bible is clear that god created all things, both good and evil.

Even the authors of the meta analysis study against drawing conclusions based on nicotine intake and Covid-19.
That comes from the fact medical science uses an over abundance of caution when coming to conclusions. Fast advancement should be prioritized over, well pretty much everything. If medical technology does not advance fast enough, than it could push back radical life extension until it is too late for me to capitalize on it, and a lot of other people as well. Look at fields where caution is thrown to the wind such as computer science and the rate of progress I those fields. Older people should stay on the bleeding edge so they give themselves a chance to survive until the technological singularity. Younger people should prioritize safety instead of aggressiveness. Nicotine gum for the elderly and me, caution for anyone else.

I wouldn't advise smoking. It's clearly unhealthy over all. Even if it does have some mild health benefits, such as an increased visual ability. If adults want to supplement a bit with nicotine patches I can see it being a good ideal, particularly if they are part of a vulnerable population that can be easily killed by covid19, because they will get it, and will need to maximize their chances of survival. We will all get it once, and probably only once.
Biohackers have known forever that despite it's addictiveness, supplementing with nicotine through means such as gum for example, they can derive a lot of health benefits.
It is my personal belief that the more vulnerable to death a person is, the more they should jump at some of the knowledge on the bleeding edge of science, particularly when it comes to something really easy to do, with very little draw backs, such as supplementing with a very small dose of nicotine daily.

So then, what do you propose the words "all" and "things" and "everything" mean , in ancient Hebrew?
Tell me the exact location of the words, so I can more easily pinpoint it. Depending on their locations a different Hebrew word is often assigned to it. Everything in one part of the book will be translated from a different word than in other parts.
And how many times have you heard a theist say the words " I only need the bible"? Would this be the same bible that doesn't actually state what it actually means then?
I am sure they are referring to the same bible. The problem is they are referring to an English translation because you probably don't speak the dead ancient hebrew language it was translated from, so the English translation is a good reference point for you and them. Not a precise one, but decent.
Let me just give some examples. Sometimes the word hell is seen in the bible. When translated from the New Testament it is often translated from the word meaning Hades in Greek. This is a literal underworld of the dead. When you see the word in the old testament, it is sometimes translated from the Hebrew word Sheol, which literally means place underneath the dirt. It would probably be more accurate to translate it to grave.
So if a Christian is running to the bible for answers, I would advise them to also consult some bible scholars so they can accurately understand what they are reading.

@Stephen
But one of my favorites of the apologists is that when the bible and god state that he/god created "everything" and "all things" it doesn't actually mean that god created " everything" and "all things". Which blows a whole clean through the creation story right there, doesn't it?
The bible was not written in english and the english words used in place of the greek and hebrew words in the bible are often rough approximations, so it is fair to say that when the bible says "everything and all things", the precise meaning is going to have a lot to do with the original language used and in fact ancient hebrew is more of a vague language than greek or english, so there will be some issues with precision.

The point of the question is to play word games. One word game is by saying Can God make a 4 sided triangle, well no he cannot. That is just word salad at that point. No different than asking "Can God purple a bird kitchen toilet platoon?" It doesn't mean anything just a random spattering of words, it also relies on the incorrect definition of omnipotent, which does not mean "capable of anything", and really just means "most high".

there is no irrefutable evidence suggesting that smoking decreases one's chances of catching or surviving Covid-19.
Irrefutable evidence of anything is hard to come by, this is an unfair standard of proof. Particularly since your next post clearly does not have irrefutable evidence to back it up.
What is apparent is that certain comorbid diseases elevate the risk of dying to Covid-19, particularly coronary heart disease, myocardial injury, cancer, diabetes, and hypertension

@sadolite
it isn't that baffling. I dug into the science a bit and this is from memory but a lot of deaths happen from the immune system fighting the virus too hard, and what the nicotine does is kinda act as an immuno suppresant

@Vader
this claim is very popular actually among researchers. smokers have a lower mortality rate and a lot of hospitals are experimenting with nicotine patches for the infected. Once I get more money I am going to start supplementing with mild doses of nicotine which seem pretty healthy for you as well.

If I was oro, I would have just stopped posting to be honest. Logically it is just silly.

You think I think you guys are stupid. Oro has so little respect for you I can tell you his game plan for tomorrow if I am lynched and he will still go with his game plan. His game plan will be to claim I was redirected, based on my cop claim from dp1. This will be obvious bullshit. Because the claim was a troll that no sane cop would pull so they assumed I was not one. Oromagi has so little respect for you guys that he will still pull this although I already said he would.

Don't be a retard. My claim of cop dp1 was a troll and also a soft claim. After I took it back nobody thought I was a cop. In fact by boldly doing that they probably thought there was no way a cop would troll like that. By you calling me a cop before I officially claimed it, you acknowledge that you have inside information.
By you claiming your role has justification when town roles have zero justification is indicative of scum. Just shut up and stop digging yourself deeper. Anyone who was on your lunch immediately should be firmly in everyone's town pile anyone who is going along with Oro's charade should be in the scum pile
