    Why is it not the same? Is it because he was pushing Jesus and not just aiming to ride one of the most famous bike routes in the world?

    Since they shoot the messenger, the message will not get through. Of those who have already passed away, does god deny them eternal life simply because they were born on an island and didn't know any better?

    So you are an authority huh.
    How do you know what God does.
    and there are over 3000 of them,
    and they are all a little different.

    ....lunch?

    .....money?

    .....books?

    .....car?

    .....table?

    Is there a prize for guessing right?

    I don't recall 'getting off' on any PF thread....ever. However, as we have already established you like to make stuff up....or you simply can't tell the difference between what you think and what actually happens. Same outcome.

    I do recall being highly critical of a man who broke the laws of a nation in which he was a guest and knowingly risked not only his own life, but potentially the lives of a significant percentage of the only population of 'North Sentinelese' in existence. I correctly attributed this to his religious beliefs, which apparently make him think law breaking and risking the deaths of others is acceptable behaviour.

    You seem terribly upset that I think this, which suggests that you think what he did was OK. You also seem to think this discussion is the appropriate forum to attack people on welfare. Sounds like you expressing your 'values' while telling me I can't express mine. Snowflake 101. Back to your safe place princess.

    Yes, except that in this case, most of the gods are laughing.

    We all die, eventually. If there is a heaven, I'd bet he's there and I believe there is heaven.

    For a billion years, the Earth was a constantly stirring soup of chemicals and with reactions of soup with a constantly bombardment of every elements, radioactivity of all kinds, volcanoes, huge discharges of electricity all across Earth.

    Those conditions persisted for a billion years before some combination made the tiniest self-sustaining combination that started life on Earth, conditions that were in some ways favorable to allow amino acids to combine effectively, something scientists can do now.

    ONE...BILLION....YEARS!!! before something finally clicked!

    The REAL question is what took soooo long?

    Don't know, don't care.
    Stop preaching your moral code to people.
    People have their own beliefs and don't need yours.

    I'm sorry if pointing out the hypocrisy of right wingers offends you, but maybe they shouldn't make it so easy.

    You seem to think they need yours. Why do you get special dispensation to express an opinion?

    One benefit of slumming wiith liberals in lib la la land is that they take you to new and unusual places to visit

    St Anseim you say?

    I had to look him up, but its not surprising that many Christians think alike

    Evolution can be directed by God

    But explaining the universe and life as it exists on earth by sheer dumb luck is dumb in the extreme

    “So long” for you is nothing to an eternal being like God

    What a pile of codswallop! Yes, a person did shoot an arrow with a nuclear war-head at an Indian helicopter....which was there after some natural disaster in that region..to make a welfare check.

    a god doesn't control every aspect of everyone's life he doesn't create good and bad in people he gave us free will and the ability to make our own choices good and bad

    As is all too common, you confuse Evolution with Abiogenesis, I'm not sure why you folks keep doing this. Anyway, even Abiogenesis has more supporting data than creation and Evolution is amost a science unto itself. Your God has....A book.
