@RoderickSpode
RoderickSpode reference your post 28 above is, for the best part, all irrelevant to the topic this thread. 

All of those reading here haven't missed the fact that you have steered clear of the murder of all of Jobs innocent children and avoided the subject like the plague. 

And you referencing other passages and verses from the scriptures that have absolutely nothing to do with issues raised in this particular topic  concerning YOUR god, won't change the fact that your god will murder for little or no reason at the drop of an hat, as proven by just the few examples that I have shown in post #1 page 1.

Well in reference to the snake, I don't think a literal snake spoke to Eve.

Neither do I. Only someone really, really stupid and stuck in the backward superstitious times of the ancients would believe that to be that case , wouldn't they.


I believe it was another god  he had punished for endowing mankind the knowledge and ability of reproduction, but the why and what you choose to call it is all  irrelevant  .  As I said, this being, what ever YOU choose to call it was indeed sentenced to be lower than ALL of the creature of gods creation,


yet YOUR god felt the need to have to prove something to it and YOUR god sanctioned the murder of ALL of his faithful servants children. WHY!!!?


"So the LORD God said to the serpent, "Because you have done this, "Cursed are you above all livestock and all wild animals! You will crawl on your belly and you will eat dust all the days of your life. Genesis 3:14

Why does theocracy get such a bad rep from the religious?
-->
@RoderickSpode
It depends what you mean by theocracy. 

It has only one meaning;

theocracy
/θɪˈɒkrəsi/


noun

  1. a system of government in which priests rule in the name of God or a god.
What are you not understanding about the word - theocracy. It means the same to everyone everywhere.

Your trying to use Exodus 20:13 to suggest a contradiction is absurd.

Even when it is actually showing a clear contradiction of this gods own commandment.  You really are scrapping the barrel and clutching at straws here. For one to order "do not kill"  and then in the very next breath kills willfully,  is nothing short of insane double standards and the very height of hypocrisy.
These act of willful murder for absolute non reason or trivial reasons only proves your god loves no one  - not even his most faithful and trusted "servants". humans to this maniac are simply ten a penny, small and insignificant ,   no matter how loyal. And your apologetic opinion of it being "absurd" is absurdity at its best.  It is as absurd as the murder of ALL of Jobs children for the fun of it.

AND!!!

You haven't addressed the point of why a god would even need to prove anything to anyone never mind to a lowly creature that he had already condemned to crawl around on its belly ` for the rest of its days` or why it was "walking to and fro on the earth and up and down".

 "From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it".Job 1;7  "WALKING"!?  It was supposed to have been condemned to "crawl on its belly and eat dust for ever" since almost the beginning of time.. Genesis 3:14




We have laws against killing people as well.

That is correct, WE do!  And and even those deemed to be judges of the law and those who make those  laws deem murder to be a crime and unlawful to murder will be held to account if they themselves have committed murder. As many cases in history have proven .

It's only illegal if you get caught. 

I am not discussing the legality of it although, we 21st century humans understand the concept of illegality . No. I am referring to the downright double standards and hypocrisy shown by the murdering jealous god of war , who will kill his most faithful of servants for no other reason that to prove  who was in charge to someone whom he had already condemned to crawl on the earth eating dirt for the rest of his days.

No one has as yet proven the whole flood, ark and Christian god thng [.........................]

So believers and non-believers alike are always somewhat jumping the gun when attempting to interpret and contextualise, biblical mythology.

Discussions of many so called "mythical" subjects and fantasies are discussed and studied all around the world in every school collage and university. Billions of Books have been written on these "mythical" beings and what is believed about them by different peoples past and present  and by theists and atheist alike.

Shakespeare's  works are for ever boring pupils and students all around the world, they are not true, factual stories. But they are discussed and studied even in non speaking English countries.  



Are you telling me that these mythical gods and their individual religions  should never be discussed at all, anywhere, ever? 

It is my contention that these subjects should be discussed weather or not one believes "gods" existed or not. The point you are missing is that millions of people over millions of years have worshiped these beings in one form or another and millions simply do not believe as such but it doesn't stop them discussing these subjects.  Theists  write and speak as if they existed or still exist. It is up to the atheist then,  should he wish to , to challenge what it is that these sycophantic fawning theist actually believe in .

If you wish to discuss  everything else but the topic of my thread, it would be decent and polite of you if you started your own thread. Rather than continue to repeat yourself over and over thereby clogging up my thread with your well known opinions on why no one should be discussing god or the bible..



Incidentally. It may have actually  escaped your notice that while I agree that there is no real and factual evidence for the Christian god ever existing, the bible does indeed itself exist and,  there-for it  is up for discussion. As would be, and is, any book discussed in book clubs AND internet forums around the globe.   
 
But it is my guess that you have never even considered this although here you are, discussing and opineing to what shouldn't be discussed.

@RoderickSpode
First off, [...........................].

None of your apologetic clap trap can justify the willful killing of this loyal and faithful   human being whose only concern seemed to be saving the arc of god , that is -  gods arc - from falling from the cart that the ox that was pulling it had stumbled. Why couldn't the lazy vile clown of a god look after his own dangerous piece of weaponry instead of trusting it to the hands of mere mortals. 

 This murder can be no more justified BY YOU than the murder of all of  children of Job,  gods MOST faithful and loyal servant, where YOUR psychopathic   jealous god of war,  YES!!! YOUR GOD - murdered for  nothing more than a wager.

These act of willful murder for absolute non reason or trivial reasons only proves your god loves no one  - not even his most faithful and trusted "servants". humans to this maniac are simply ten a penny, small and insignificant ,   no matter how loyal. 

do you you think this event actually happened?

Irreverent. The bible - believed by millions - tells the story of a man Uzzah that was murdered by god when this gods own command is "thou shalt not kill".

Exodus 20:13 King James Version (KJV)
13 Thou shalt not kill.

@RoderickSpode
Concerning Uzzah and the arc, would you kindly show us where it says the arc was tipping over.

Typical but not surprising. It is clear that Uzzah reached out to steady the arc because the oxen pulling it "had stumbled". Uzzah's concern for gods arc was obvious to everyone , except to fawning backward thinking sycophants such as Christians who will stoop and scrape for all kinds of reasons & excuses that justifies this willful and pointless killing of a innocent human being by this psychopathic tyrant . 

Did Uzzas' heroic action deserve the death penalty.  This was a killing for no reason other than your megalomaniac psychopathic god  wanted to show that he was in charge.

Maybe Uzza should have show kindness to the Ox and untethered the cart carrying the arc and let the poor beast go relieving him of his burden and let it run free. But then acts of kindness are alien to a psychopathic  "The LORD is a man of war: the LORD is his name."
Exodus 15:3, KJV

Interesting here that it is stated that "the lord" is "a man" and is addressed simply as "the lord", just like in the days of ancient Mesopotamia.

The particulars as they apply to the word with the r-tz-ch root (vs the h-r-g root) are very complex. The general notion that r-tz-ch is an extra judicial killing while h-r-g is (a type of) judicial or approved killing is only true MOST of the time.


And are you now going to tell me that -  kill -  in the scripture means something entirely different to what all normal people believe the word kill to mean, i.e. to cause the death of.

@zedvictor4

It's somewhat naïve to assume that an actual god would be a particular one that you prefer to refer to.

I refer to the god spoken of in the biblical text that is believed by millions to exist. 


My personal belief is that many of these so called gods existed here once millennia ago, but have since returned from where they came. .  Interesting that you mention plural gods though which is something that the bible refers to often without any excuses for "mistranslation" yet , our fawning backward thinking sycophants will insist that there is only "one god". The ancients of such places as Mesopotamia who only ever referred to these beings as "lords" and NOT GODS,  make that fact clear as does the god of the Christians himself says that there were more than one god. But this is not the topic of this thread.

The topic of this thread concerned the fact that this particular god of the scripture  - who is worshiped by millions of fawning backward thinking sycophants  is a megalomaniac psychopathic killer who it shows will simply murder because he is bored and has nothing better to do with his time.

And as mentioned raises many embarrassing questions for said fawning backward thinking sycophantic Christians.

Why would this all powerful god creator all things feel the need to prove himself  to anyone at all let alone to a creature he had condemned to spend the rest of his life on the ground  eating dust millennia before. As in the case of Job.

And what was this creature -Satan-  doing just wondering around the earth having supposedly once been condemned to eat dust "all of his days" by this all powerful god creator all things.Genesis 3:14.  When asked where he had been and where had he just come from he replied:


"From going to and fro in the earth, and from walking up and down in it".Job 1;7  "WALKING"!?

Exodus 20:13
 "Thou shalt not kill".says God.
 
This didn't stop god murdering his faithful servant Ezekiel's wife for absolutely no reason other than to show who is boss. Ezekiel 24:15-24. and on top of it all, Ezekiel wasn't even allowed to mourn or weep for the loss of his great love.
 
These murders of  innocent people committed by this psychopathic,megalomaniac jealous god of war don't stop there either. No. There is the sanctioning  by god of  the slaughter all of Jobs children for no other reason  than to prove a point. Job 1:13-22. Job recognized by god as his most loyal and faithful servant. 
 
 And there is Jeroboam's son. Again no reason given for these murders only god was proving something. This child was killed to punish Jeroboam, to save him from a massacre God was planning for the rest of Jeroboam's family. Kings 14:10-18
 
There is the killing by god of Bathsheba's baby boy. No reason.
Uzzah. for saving gods  sacred arc from tipping over.
Thousands of of Israelites for no other reason than because they didn't like the bread. And on and on and on it goes. There is no respite from gods wrath and the murder of innocents.
 
 
 
 
The questions that are raised by just these few horrific examples of murders of innocents by the adopted god of the Chrsitians are endless, but one shouldn't expect any fawning, led- by- the- nose- Christian to address the barbarity of this god who will murder for no reason and at the drop of a hat.

My husband and myself have been very open nudist for 25 years and we wonder why in the year of 2020 is public nudity not an accepted behavior. We have discussed the subject with several of our friends (many of them are Christians) and we still have not really gotten a great answer to why there is still such a taboo with the subject. We have both gone as far as going naked in public and we have never gotten a real negative reaction and in fact have gotten the THUMBS up reaction. Anyway, feel free to join the discuss with any comments that you would like to make and we will get back to everyone. 

Strange that in the bible we are created butt naked and had been happily going about our daily lives for some time in the state of nakedness and then god has an argument with snake and we all have to cover up immediately because for some unexplained reason, suddenly, nakedness is sinful and taboo.
Only the bible can come up with such explainable bilge. But I suppose some backward thinking Christian will be along soon to rewrite the story by adding there own theories and thoughts and presenting said theories and thoughts as fact  to make it make less sense now than it did back then, thousands of years ago.

Really? And what exactly is it that you think I'm lying about?

You are denying that God created all things when the bible, YOUR BIBLE, CLEARLY contradicts you.

Like I have said many times; you Christians want to have it all ways.. You are all born LIARS who simply cannot cope with the obvious truth that is written there in your scriptures for all to see.


Do you really think you can just ignore the Hebrew and Greek translations?
  Hahahahahhahahhaha, but you can ignore what suites you when it suites you, What a utter hypocrite!

Your god is a murderous psychopath who will murder anyone for any reason that suites him, which includes innocent women and children. And I know this because the bible says so. Would you like some examples of your gods handy work and willingness to kill for the sake of killing?

Get over it sunshine. You backing a god with serous mental issues.

No, the all in the verse you quoted is not meant to include absolutely everything.

Stop lying.




The Greek word used is pas which refers to kinds, or types.


Ok so your god created all kinds and types of EVERYTHING and ALL things.  


The text is not talking about God making good, evil, or diseases.
Stop it. The bible makes it PERFECTLY clear that god created ALL things  ;


"God that made the world and all things therein, seeing that he is Lord of heaven and earth, dwelleth not in temples made with hands . . . For in him we live, and move, and have our being; as certain also of your own poets have said, For we are also his offspring."
Acts 17:24, 28 KJV

"But to us there is but one God, the Father, of whom are all things, and we in him; and one Lord Jesus Christ, by whom are all things, and we by him."
1 Corinthians 8:6, KJV


Colossians 1:16 English Standard Version (ESV)
16 For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. There are over 100 verses in the bible that claim that god, your god, created everything , that is to say, all things.

"The LORD hath made all things for himself: yea, even the wicked for the day of evil."
Proverbs 16:4, KJV


"All things were made by him; and without him was not any thing made that was made."
John 1:3, KJV

"And saying, Sirs, why do ye these things? We also are men of like passions with you, and preach unto you that ye should turn from these vanities unto the living God, which made heaven, and earth, and the sea, and all things that are therein:"
Acts 14:15, KJV


So again I tell you, you want it all ways! But let me tell you Christian, your own bible doesn't agree with most of the bullshit claims that you and other Christians here claim, as shown above.

God either created "everything" or he didn't and the bible is wrong. Suck it up sunshine.

Also, he didn't create evil.


You obviously do not understand the word "everything" or what "all things" means either.

Colossians 1:16 English Standard Version (ESV)
16 For by him all things were created, in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or dominions or rulers or authorities—all things were created through him and for him. There are over 100 verses in the bible that claim that god, your god, created everything , that is to say, all things.

 The trouble I have found with all of  you devout Christians is that you won't take responsibility for your own outrageous contradictory claims or the vile and murderous actions of your god.  

God doesn't love you. It is debatable that he even loved any of HIS "chosen" considering he murdered most of them at the drop of an hat and for a wager. And Jesus was a Jew not a Christian, He was king of the J-E-W-S not king of the Christians. All hard facts to accept for many of you Christians I should imagine , but facts they are. Jesus himself didn't once refer to anyone as being his CHRISTIAN brother, sister, mother or father or friend.  Jesus would have been appalled at the fact that a whole demented and delusional ideology had sprung up in his name after he was killed.

You want it all ways! But let me tell you Christian, your own bible doesn't agree with most of the bullshit claims that you and other Christians here claim, as shown above.

God either created "everything" or he didn't and the bible is wrong. Suck it up sunshine.

@ethang5


Now why don't you show from the bible where the lord god tells us he wants to "save us from death" and where he tells us he loves us?
Why? What makes you think I owe you? You never show anything, so why do you think you can ask me to show you anything?


If you make a claim you owe anyone reading here an explanation when your stupid childish claims are challenged. Where is your proof that god doesn't want us to die. What's more, where is your proof that your god even loves us? There is none is there. but this won't stop you making the same claim over and over, that is to say, continue lying over and over.

But, just as I thought, once challenged to support your  stupid claims and backward childish statements, you fail miserably and fall at the first fence. And then on top of this, you start an argument with me personally , and  on someone else's thread rather than attempting supporting your own claims. 

You simply want to be left to make all sorts of ridiculous and outrageous claims and go unchallenged. It doesn't work that way "JETHRO"!!! 

So stop your whining and whinging and STOP!! derailing a thread that isn't even your own and start answering some questions concerning your own pathetic claims :

Science Fiction And The Bible

@RoderickSpode
UFOs (in the purest sense) are no longer science fiction.

They were never "science fiction" in the first place. UFO's have always been just objects in the sky that are  "unidentified". People have been witnessing them for millennia. They are also depicted in many medieval works of art;  Crivelli (the Annunciation) & De Gelder's (Baptism of Christ) work leaps to mind. 

That said, there are interesting passages in the scriptures that speak of some kind of craft acceding and descending to and from the sky which were certainly identified by the ancients. Indeed they  described these craft in the best terms that they could i.e. "a chariot".

Compare that description to the plains Indians of the North American calling the steam train the "iron horse" then we can begin to get an better understanding of what the ancients may have been trying to describe.

I know what a TV is but I cannot explain how pictures  can be broken down into invisible waves and transported from one place to another while remaining in the same place.

Were these ancient craft "chariots" of the gods? Were the gods simply intelligent beings from another place " up there"? The circumstantial evidence for both being possible , to my mind,  piles up year after year.

But don't expect a delusional theist to agree with any of these theories/possibilities. Because like I have said many times before, there is no cure for blinkered and ignorant stupidity.

No they cannot be honest. It is not too hard to find the evidence that most  theist are absolute born liars! They simply cannot help themselves. They will re - write whole passages to suit their own interpretations, put words into the mouths of the authors of the scriptures and words into the mouths of biblical characters,  and, in the face of all the evidence, will never for a moment even consider that they are wrong. see post #20 above.

God makes no secret of the fact that he is a murderous psychopath and even admits to being a "jealous god of war".

And the bible itself records ALL of the murders of innocent people including babies - that your god committed. So stop with your lies and bullshit and start by explaining to us all why your god,  that, according to only you -" wants to save us from death" is doing all the murdering of innocents in the bible?

Your reports begin with him replying to BrotherThomas but accidentally tagging you. 

And then denying it and proceeding to carry on doing exactly the same thing even when I TOLD HIM he was quoting the wrong person and asked him to stop.  HE SIMPLY DOES NOT CARE ABOUT THE FKN RULES!!!!!!!!!! ffs!!!!!


I am not seeing evidence of him having taken my words to be a green light to do those things as you claim.

That'll be because I have hardly posted since Ifirst flagged him (and nothing being done about it) and so he has nothing new to purposefully misquote me on or since you/moderation have allowed this bully to continue on the same argumentative path that he was on before his  "ban" at around Christmas.  of  using l lies and deceit to create conflict. You know he is a fkn liar and you know he purposefully misquotes and doctors posts 

Or have you forgotten this already?

Ethang has been banned for 2 weeks. Sorry for the delayed response to your reports, there was a lot to handle involving him, at a time when most of the moderation team was busy with real life concerns.
Generally any more existing posts from him should be ignored in terms of reporting, but if his behavior does not improve upon his return, please report any future CoC violations (not to say every single abrasive post he makes, but rather ones which cross the line).



12.24.2019 7:19AM
He habitually lied about stuff I'm supposed to have said (like made up a bunch of comments which prove a conspiracy theory, to a debate I had not posted any comments on...), but as a moderator I'm kind of open game.
For someone outright lying about your words (editing quotes), please in addition to reporting the post, also message a moderator about it (we skim over what's reported, without clear knowledge of why the report was made). It's BS which you should not have to put up with. ... Don't get me wrong, people can and should argue, but there's a level of vileness which I consider to be inexcusable.

Someone you dislike does such a minor slip-up, correct them (or even mock them for it). However, spamming reports buries the worst offenses, so I advise saving the reports for the smoking gun rather than the parking tickets.[.........................]While editing quotes to distort the original message

You do realise that you have just given the green light to Ethang5 to continue to edit quotes to "  distort the original message" purposefully with the sole intention of creating argument, it also helps bury his often embarrassment and more than often schoolboy mistakes not to mention his persistent lies .


such a minor slip-up

Once or twice I might agree with you. He does it on a regular basis, it matters not to him  if or not I have to rewrite the whole post because he has intentionally  decontextualize my  post. It helps him bury his embarrassment, every time I have to do this. . 

normal slip-ups are understandable

Ethang 5's method of intentionally quoting out of context is not a "slip up", it is a purposeful  devious practice.

There is a very clear rule against this devious practice so it is obvious it is a problem other wise why have a rule against it in the first place?

Of course he doesn't Seth. He a compulsive liar who makes everything up as he goes especially when he has painted himself into a corner with his bullshit, claptrap and lies. This is a person who will rewrite whole verses of scripture when caught on the back foot.

God did create her homer,
Finally!

 I haven't once disputed this have I, Popoff.  You are the one arguing whether or not god created everything. You are the one trying to swerve what the bible actually states.  Again you want it all ways. Your god according to YOU and the BIBLE, created "EVERYTHING". There are well over 100 BIBLE verses that makes this clear.

Your god not only created this little sick child he also created the defect that is causing her to be in dire need of an operation that you, Popoff, seemed reluctant to contribute towards. Yet you do not shy away from asking "atheists" to pay for her. Your not only a compulsive liar, Popoff you are also a fkn hypocrite!!!! 


The child has had the operation jedthro. 

When did she have it and how do you know? I believe you are lying again, Popoff because of the awkward embarrassing questions I posed you concerning this fictional "sick child".


You could also explain to us what this intestinal defect actually consists of ?

Why?






Why not? It was you after all who introduced this little sick child to the conversation asking for money, Popoff just like your namesake Peter Popoff and let me remind you: this is what you have said to salixes at post #2 ;

ethang5 wrote: I know a little girl in Ghana that needs 10,000 Ghana CEDI's ( their unit of money) which comes to $200.

Surely a self-righteous atheist who can either do nothing to help this child or just doesn't care is either impotent or just plain, outright evil.

Which are you?
 So here your telling salixes that there IS a girl in need of an operation AND THE MONEY TO PAY FOR IT, but  then,  hey presto, when pushed on the matter you tell us all that she has had the operation and all is fine .  YOUR A FKN LIAR!!!!! and anyone and everyone can see this to be the case. 


 She got nothing from you, 

Correct.  I was giving to charity at home Popoff




...or is this all just more of your bullshite that you now wish you hadn't said.
 if you're not going to help her, no one needs to report her condition to you.

But "she" doesn't need help does she? She's all of a sudden been cured and her defect but only, it seems after you was pressed for some additional simple information concerning this "little child's " predicament. Now, you want to put this story behind you by not answering further questions because according to ONLY YOU, POPOFF, she has suddenly been fixed and all is well.


YOUR A FKN LIAR!!!!!!!!


You have come onto this thread, trotted out some old claptrap about a sick child desperate for an operation without a single piece of evidence that supports your story; IT HASN'T WORKED!!!!!!

For those unfamiliar with the name Peter POPOFF,


he stole from the sick and those in desperate need or REAL Medical OPERATIONS and desperate medical attention. 

Peter Popoff  televangelist and con man. He was exposed in 1986 for using an earpiece to receive radio messages from his wife, who gave him the names, addresses and ailments of audience members during Popoff-led religious services. Popoff falsely claimed God revealed this information to him so that Popoff could cure them by faith healing.

The late and great debunker James Randi  exposed his evangelical cons and carpetbagging.

$4 million dollars a year he was stealing from the sick and in desperate need That's almost 10 million today.

Salixes wrote * Instead of operating theatres we shall have prayer rooms.
Interesting as we have a perfect platform to see if this operating "prayer room" may or may not actually  work.




Let's use Ethang 5's alleged poor little Ghanaian girl in desperate need (28 days ago) of medical surgery (according to ethang 5) as our first patient. Of course,  me not having a religious bone in my body wouldn't be able to perform a prayer operation as I don't have "faith" but I could over see the "prayer operation"  once Ethang 5 has given us all the details concerning this little sick Ghanaian child. 

Tradesecret ,  you telling us that prayer does work and your evidence for this is that you prayed for this thread to be created;


Yes prayer works. I prayed that you would start another topic demonstrating your foolishness, and God answered my prayer. 

Then can I suggest that if god cannot manage to cure this alleged Ghanaian child would it be possible for him to somehow stump up the $200 that is needed for the surgery so a very qualified and very human surgeon can do the job that he can't or won't do?

Interesting. It appears after Ethnag 5's  "only 3 more to go" after Disgusted got banned that  all his wishes appear to be coming to fruition. And he obviously has one more in his sights if this quote of his from post #2 above is anything to go by.

No and simply because your god according to YOU and the fkn bible created !all fkn things" !!!!!!
God did create her homer, she just could have developed the defect after creation.

I see. And what created the defect in this poor little girl that you haven't manged to find a measly $200.00 for?

.
I haven't given you any insults or vulgarity in this thread.

STOP LYING!!!!! Your full of it and I am sick of your getting away with all of your deviousness for the sake of argument. You are allowed to behave like a spoiled little brat once you have painted yourself into a corner and are left redundant of answers to perfectly good, logical questions.. You insult almost everyone on this and every thread that refuses to agree with you and puts forward a better argument than you could ever dream to muster. I see you have caused the Brother to be banned which you admit on another thread was your intention. 

Are you really not smart enough to figure out that some of the things God create change after creation? Really?

Stop it. You are the one who is lacking in logic Popoff!!!  Either your god created "ALL THINGS" as the bible says or he didn't.






I'm trying to get a video of the little girl online that I can link.

Then do it and throw the 200 bucks her way  that you claim she desperately needs,while your at it, you  hypocrite.

You could also explain to us what this intestinal defect actually consists of ? What problems is it causing for her? What has happened to her since you brought up the matter of her plight. Has she received any aid from YOU or you church?

What is her condition since you posted about her (post 2 above)  on  02.13.20  at 12:27 PM - 28 days ago!!!!!!!! - or is this all just more of your bullshite that you now wish you hadn't said.

This thread has been the source of countless reports from and about several members. As per the terms of the prior notification, this thread will now be locked for 24 hours. Please use the time to cool down. You can disagree with each other, without so poorly representing your own sides.
-Ragnar, DM

And did you read the "countless reports" at all Ragnar? Or was there so  many concerning Ethang 5 and his blatant flouting of forum rules for you to manage, so dealt with all those complaints with a blanket warning because it was the easy option ?
 Yes he has been purposefully attributing quotes to members they haven't said and then proceeded to create arguments around those fake quotes,  which, as shown below, is a clear violation of forum rules and etiquette.

In Ethang5 you are dealing with a remember who, once he has painted himself into a corner will simply turn to veiled insults and abuse and outright LIES! thereby causing, with intent, a  hostile debate. This is a person who hasn't created a thread of his own in the religious forum for well over a year until recently (only 7 religious topic threads in total since he joined) and that was only because I had picked him up on the fact. Ethnag 5 joins threats to argue, not debate.  Moderation, it appears, has yet again let slide all this  abuse from a clear argumentative and abusive bully.

 ethang5 is violating the rules by intentionally and purposefully misquoting me as shown below under item #3: he dose this because he has no other way to create an argument unless attributes something someone else has said to me.

Etiquette Expectations [DRAFT]

Formatting Best Practices:

For actual debates, I highly suggest referencing the guide. However, for general forum use, just obey a few simple rules:

You think everything God creates remains static?
No,... I think everything that you say believe that was created by god created is not flawless. Did god not create this poor little girl or not?

Then the little girl could have been created free of defect and developed it after creation.

 No and simply because your god according to YOU and the fkn bible created !all fkn things" !!!!!!

Your habit of quoting out of context doesn't go noticed. AND IT WON'T ALTER THE FACT THAT NOT ALL OF YOUR GODS CREATIONS ARE FAULTLESS. IN FACT MOST OF THEM WERE FUCKED UP FROM DAY ONE!!!!


Did God create your posts?

My, my,  that is extremely shallow . You simply have no fkn answered do you, Popoff ?  You are totally redundant of any logical explanation as to why YOUR GOD!!!! created this poor little girl with this life threatening condition. 

And whats more you don't fkn care about her either, other wise YOU would have sent round the collection plate ages ago and seen to it that she was  cared for and cured. Some fkn christian you are!!!? 

So you are telling us that YOU and your congregation of self righteous, holier than thou fellow Christians cannot raise the measly  "10,000 Ghana CEDI's ( their unit of money) which comes to $200", for this little girl in Ghana in desperate need of a "medical operation"?  What happened to  " sell your possessions and give to the poor" , Matthew 19:21 ?? Start by selling your pc and do us all a fkn favour


MAKE YOUR FKN MIND UP POPOFF!!!,  you want it all ways don't you?
I'd settle for you being civil and rational.

I give as good as I get from you Popoff . The mods seem reluctant to discipline you deservedly so I won't be cowered by some of such low intellect who cannot make up his mind as to whether god - HIS " "GOD!!! - created everything"  as per the bible says or just likes to pick out what fluffy  nice things his god may or may not have created while ignoring all the genetic defects and diseases he also created in children such as your subject little girl from Ghana.

Start by selling your pc and do us all a fkn favour

There is a chance that a little 6 year old girl in Ghana today was not there thousands of years ago

So are you now trying to claim that your god who is believed BY YOU  to be  omnipotent and in all places at all times, had no hand whatsoever in the creation of this poor little girl from Ghana.  You just don't have a logical answer for anything at all do you. 


He's a  bit of a dozy forgetful and clueless nobhead at times, isn't he, your god?
He created you didn't He?

According to YOU AND THE BiBLE, he did, But somehow this seems to contradict your statement above suggesting that he had no hand in the creation of " the little girl living today in Ghana today". MAKE YOUR FKN MIND UP POPOFF!!!,  you want it all ways don't you?

Like I said, you need to get your story straight Popoff.  You want it both ways. Your coming across as a extremely confused little soul with absolutely no answers to perfectly reasonable questions. 

Why did your god - creator of all things - create this little girl with such a crippling life threatening defect?


"For in him all things were created: things in heaven and on earth, visible and invisible, whether thrones or powers or rulers or authorities; all things have been created through him and for him". Colossians 1:16



"For My hand made all these things, Thus all these things came into being," declares the LORD ". Isaiah 66:2


" You created all things, and because of Your will they existed, and were created." Revelation 4:11

So what caused this poor creation of god to have such a dysfunctional intestinal passage in the first place?
Who knows?

Wasn't it God? Didn't god create this "poor little girl from Ghana", And didn't he create her with this intestinal defect?  Didn't god create and cause everything to come into existence.  You need to make up you fkn mind Popoff.


God, it is written,  looked around and saw that ALL of his creation "was very good" .......  with the exception of " the little girl in Ghana" one can assume.  
Maybe on that day thousands of years ago, the little girl was sleeping so God didn't see her. Lol!

Maybe?  Just like he couldn't find Adam and Eve and had to go around the garden calling out their names asking where they are. 

"But the LORD God called to the man, "Where are you?" Genesis 3:9". He's a  bit of a dozy forgetful and clueless nobhead at times, isn't he, your god?

How can anyone be this clueless?

It seems to come so, so fkn easy to you sunshine, as does your bullshit.

Medical operation. She has an obstruction in her intestine.

(Correction too, $200 comes to only 1,000 CEDI's.)

Stephen,
Ol' ethang5 is doctoring my posts #48 and #50 by putting your words into me saying them. [........] he is secretly in admittance that he has lost reality in his own thread,

Yes I noticed that too, Brother. He is either losing track of his own thread and cannot keep up with who is saying what, OR he is intentionally and with malice doctoring posts to somehow incriminate someone for what he believes is bad behavior and a breaking of the forum rules. It could be both.



he is probably trying to remove this embarrassing thread of his post haste so as not to have this chagrining thread record remain on DEBATEART!  

Yes indeed. This is his default when caught on the back foo and when he has painted himself into a corner of total embarrassment. He will destroy and derail his own thread and bury his pretend biblical intellectual knowledge under piles of unnecessary argumentative garbage so as not to be seen for the fraud and the LIAR in particular, that he actually is. And this is why he will not create a single thread concerning the actual  biblical scriptures.

  So you start a thread and then fall at the first  fence when your incompetence comes under the slightest challenge or scrutiny. Of course its your job to explain what YOUR OWN  THREAD is about. It is not for anyone else to interpret YOUR words and the meaning behind them as garbled as they are.

I don't think you know what doctoring a post is. Ask a mod and he will explain it to you.


I do, and you doctor posts in this way often. Accrediting quotes to me made by other members and then replying to them as if I had said them is doctoring posts. 

I am amazed how you persistently get away with doing this and all of your other blatant contravening of the rules. Are you a secret mod? I notice your recent  'ban' occurred over the Christmas period when no one else was posting anyway.

make sense of existence and life's most important questions. 

And what are life's most important questions?



They are, Stephen,

1) What are we?
Why is that an important question?



(2) Who am I?
I don't see that as an important question.



3) Why am I here?

Why is that important?


4) What difference does it make?

That is your best question so far and the answer from my stand point is that it makes no difference whatsoever.



5) How can I be sure or what is necessary for surety?

That makes no sense to me at all. Sure of what?


6) What happens to me when I physically die.

That question is not important to me and neither should it be to you. 



How you or I answer these is how you or I will live your or my life IF you or I am being consistent to what we state and not lying to yourself or myself.

Life changes all the time as do opinions and beliefs. 


Now you tell me. Why did your god create anything, at all,  in the first place?
