    Can evolution explain why some some theists carry out enormous acts of stupidity in the name of their god? Surely only a Intelligent Designer could create a creature so stupid that he will believe he can be bitten by deadly snakes, crucified or fly planes into buildings because the designer wants him to?

    Religion could well be an evolutionary trait, with the smart ones selling this garbage to the dimwits in order to keep them in line, while boosting their own power, prestige and wealth. It certainly works, crowd control, and hence increases the likelihood of the tribe surviving.

    Nice to have those Darwin Awards so that some of these theist MORONS get the recognition they so richly deserve... :thumbsup:

    Why has no theist come to actually attempt to correct wrongs relating to Theos? Such as the word Theos itself being applicable in/to masculine and feminine nouns; such as theos Diana, theos Zeus, theos Theos, etc...

    Or did Romans not speak Latin?

    Wait. Greeks not speaking Latin.

    I know. Theos speaking Christ Messiah!


    TCM channel .. The Trinity Christian Message channel.

    Hire rightful, qualified theists for these channel 'slots' and maybe there would be no need for telethon payments made over technology susceptible 'wires'.

    Uh, you do realize that TCM is Turner Classic Movies, don't you? I think you are referring to TBN, which is the Trinity Broadcasting Network.

    Yeh especially when compared to the rich religious heritage of atheists!


    Comedians launch first ‘church’ for atheists

    Two stand-up comedians form a congregation of non-believers in a former church and even plan to hold weddings and funerals. Sunday Assembly will meet at 11am on the first Sunday of every month, starting on January 6, the Feast of the Epiphany, at The Nave in Islington.

    https://www.standard.co.uk/news/london/comedians-launch-first-church-for-atheists-8428425.html

    Yeh always good for a laugh! Um...no pun intended :lol:

    That first documentary about the snake handling preacher is quite good. It's in two parts. Dumbass preacher gets bitten, almost dies, then blames the camera crew because their presence in his church obviously was displeasing god....this stuff is priceless!!!

    Ah, yes.. more hysterical hostility, to prove to all, that The Creator is Real..

    ;)

    I'm glad my series has inspired mockers and caricatures, to illustrate the Truth.

    ..i do hope those who are estranged from their Creator will ponder their condition, and perhaps find a path back to their Source..

    Good luck.

    Too difficult to explain why the creator created such stupid people in his own image?

    Can you stick on topic please, how do you explain flying a plane into a building killing thousands of people other than an intelligent designer made us in his own image?

    The FBI failed to knock it down in 93 so they called in the pros to get it done.

    Da gubmint set it up, then tried to cover their tracks now lots of people are getting sued for their bullshit because we aint as stupid as they thought

    ..not difficult to explain the madness and folly of Man, but for some, perceiving Spiritual Reality has become difficult, if not impossible. And explaining this Reality is monumentally difficult, for mere mortals. Only Divine Intervention can open the eyes and mind to a Reality that is There.

    'There are none so blind as those who will not see.. ' ~John Heywood, 1546

    ..but regarding the stupidity of Man, perhaps Einstein said it best:

    Your imaginary "creator" is 100% RESPONSIBLE for all of the stupidity of mankind and it takes a special kind of "madness and folly" to blame mortals for what their imaginary "creator" did to them by stupidly making mankind in his own image.

    ..believe what you want... /shrug/

    The reason for the madness and folly of man is plainly evident:

    Estrangement from the Creator.

    You can blame Him, for your own hostility and confusion, but that only leads down the rabbit hole of increasing hostility and estrangement, with overt madness and hysteria as the final outcome.

    ONLY if there is a reconciliation.. a resolution of the estrangement from the Creator, can the blindness and hostility be lifted. Until then, one is trapped in a mindset of antagonism and outrage, toward the only One who can fix it.

    It is a tragic commentary on the madness and folly of Man.

    More doublespeak babble that does NOT address the FACT that your imaginary "creator" is 100% RESPONSIBLE for creating man in his own stupid image.

    Furthermore YOU now need to EXPLAIN how it is even possible to be "estranged" from something that you created in your own image.

    That is like saying that you are are "estranged" from your own image in a mirror! :eek: That is Malice in Blunderland territory.

    You appear confused, the acts above were all carried out by people who would very much claim not to be estranged from their god, indeed people very much in touch with him.

    As I recall they were directly told by their god to carry out those acts of stupidity in his name.

    Exactly, each carries out the acts because their god told them to, it was not unbelievers who played with snakes, believes god requires them to be crucified each year or killing thousands is good. Their god obviously wants such acts from his devotee's.
