As others have said: "If we are made in God's image, why are we not invisible?"
If we are made in gods image, why are some of us black, while others are white? Why are some Native American, while others are Asian? Also why do we have two genders? Does god have two genders?
I love this! 😂 Somehow I never thought about that before.
Because the Gods were not invisible in the Garden of Eden or when they hang out in heaven just above the clouds (you could even visit by building a tall tower or so I heard). Invisibility was more like a power that such deities could turn on/off when needed (perhaps there was a divine rule that whenever visiting the mortals they always had to turn on their invisibility?). As we found out more about the natural world the gods begun to seek refuge in man's imagination.
Thats a beauty 😂
Well I guess John Cena is half demi-god since you can't see him, lol.
I don't believe humans are made in the image of god, I believe the gods are made in the image of humans.
Indeed
Exactly. Which is why the worst genocidal, murderer is an exact replica of the old testament diety.
Absolutely well said
Well said man!
This is good
"In the beginning man created God, then he created stories in which God created man."
No ...
In the beginning man was not there
a few billion years would go by and man would show up
then man pretended to be there from the beginning
then man created god who created man to be there from the beginning
then man said that god was there before the beginning so it would make sense on a 2nd grade level
then man was lonely so god made him a women
they had 2 sons.
one son killed the other for the dumbest reason
and even though there was only 1 women in existence,
we are told the 2 sons had wives, of which there is no explanation where they came from
then man was told to just skip over this and the stories went from there
Sure, water came up with all the information necessary to make a living organism. Then it coded that information into a DNA sequence. Simultaneously it fashioned a molecular machine to read the code and understand its instructions. Water also made absolutely sure that DNA would have a molecular machine to regularly be inspecting it, be aware of any mistakes and repair them, Water also assembled other molecular machines to carry out the DNA instructions delivered to them by the RNA molecular machine. Wow! Water sure is smart!

That sounds about right. How about: there's sick people so Christians go to church to pray for healing. The atheists get off their duff and go build a hospital.
Give a man lots of Bibles, and he fools others into giving him their fish.

I love when atheists have to help theists through their own arguments for God.
I always find humor in the calls where they start off by naming the fallacy they're about to use (or the fallacious argument that does not lead to where they want it to) and that they know the host does not find it convincing but they're going to present it to them anyway. (to clarify, I'm being literal, that's not just my uncharitable summation of their position)
"Wuhll ... I think ..."
Well I am not like god, because I have never drowned an animal or given
bone cancer to a child or threatened a child with hell!
@@RideAcrossTheRiverexcept they're not qualifed to think.
The point is that the theists have this thought that makes complete sense to them, and they think that if they present it like that to the hosts it will be check mate. As soon as the host points out how stupid their argument actually is they are completely lost since they never thought beyond that point.
I declare that eating breakfast is a sign that the Breakfast Gnomes exist, because we all wake up hungry, and that’s an essential attribute of Breakfast Gnomes.
That silliness is not why millions of people believe in a creator. Our belief is based on compelling evidence of design, or a creative mind providing evidence of forethought and planning in nature.
In stark contrast your belief in abiogenesis has absolutely no basis at all. You believe it because scientists say so, and they choose to believe it without having absolutely no evidence at all that it ever took place, nor are they even able to replicate it in a lab.
n short, that is not science, That is quackery.

Yeah, I feel bad for the guy, but hopefully this conversation led to him doing some more thinking about his assumed beliefs.
Atheism is the biggest dead end of existence. With materialism, support and being happy with one's own money became the only goal, but money and disbelief dragged the effort to deny God into an artificial void. Man is weak and was created with belief in God. It is futile to claim the opposite. God exists and is one. God created all the beings in the world and is eternal. Islam says that Allah exists and is one. The existence of eternal harmony and order in the universe PROVES THE EXISTENCE OF GOD.❤❤
By the sound of him, every person he ever met in his life believes wholeheartedly in this same nonsense. He is incredulous to be faced with logical objections from another person. He has no way to deal with questions he has never encountered before.

just listen to the caller's inability to think clearly, creating pseudo-dilemmas, jumping to arbitrary conclusions and in general think out of the religious box he was brainwashed into. amazing!
That's absolutely correct, 1 point of evidence is when you listen to these idiots and they go on stupid tangents.
I recently was on a youtube video , something about that Mortal Kombat character SUB ZERO and that he turned to christianity, the guys name who played Sub Zero was , i think John Turk. anyway the title was something like
SUB ZERO TURNS CHRISTIAN
My comment was something like
Sub Zero didn't turn christian , John Turk Turned christian. I mean Sub Zero is a creature from the underworld, not to mention he doesn't exist.
it's John who found christ not sub zero
AND SOME IDIOT RESPONDS WITH
If you seek christ you shall find him
WHAT THE FUCK DOES THAT HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING THAT I SAID ?
So you can usually tell whether these guys have a few screws loose or not.
and the other interesting point is.......
When answering like retards, do they not understand that they are representing christianity when they do this.
that they are sending out a clear signal that says... We are complete idiots and don't read what was said.
Christians could indeed be highly intelligent people, BUT SOMEHOW it seems to be a trend that most of them are stupid and respond in highly irrelevant ways
just as you said
AN INABILITY
To think clearly
To respond rationally
To make sense and be relevant
In summary, morality has survival value.
It's like religious people have never actually thought about the things they believe and are accustomed to talking to other Christians who never challenge them.
@halwasserman: That's exactly it. Thinking is not allowed.
I love how he proudly claims Zeus is fiction but then says his God couldn't possibly be fiction. Totally not double standards.
And he refused to answer the question _why._ Listening to him dodge and dance around the question wa spissing me off. I wouldn't have the patience for that, kudos to all the people talking to the callers, my hair would grey within months

"….well, the Bible says."

You can almost hear the mental wheels grinding to a halt.
More like throwing cogs then spinning freely.
The sound engineer needs to throw in a sound effect every time this happens.
Poor guy, he honestly does not know why he believes what he believes. Nor he can put it into words.
The world is full of them.
My Dad, holy roller christian dying of cancer, died for over two minutes and came back, remembered a vision of sitting in a beautiful field of flowers on a warm sunny day. No floating, no other people / angels / whathave you. He was smart enough to assume his dying brain was being hopeful.
I always wonder. Does god need glasses just like me?
He's a slob like us.
One word: LASIK
Maybe, but not with those frames…
God has perfect vision, and therefore doesn't need glasses. And since you are a being made in God's perfect image, you don't _really_ need them either. If you believe that your vision is less than perfect, that's *obviously* because you haven't prayed enough on this, and you don't *truly* believe in the healing power of Jesus. (The scary thing is that there are idiots who genuinely believe this crap.)
@@rootytuners Not that ring! Never that ring!
I listened to one guy quip to another, that said he was made in God's image, that "god must be pretty ugly, then."
Image is not referring the the physique.
@@Radrook353 You have a poor sense of humor.
@@Radrook353How do you know what image refers to?
I would ask every caller three clarifying questions:
At what age did you first learn about the Bible?
How frequently was it reinforced?
How long have you been a practicing believer?
Then, proceed with questions based on the answers given. For example,
"Couldn't I get you to believe anything at so trusting an age? You believed in Santa and the Toothfairy because I told you they existed. If high school was when you first heard about religion, do you think you would have bought into it?" Approaching the subject obliquely affords you fewer head-on collisions.
Back in the late 50's, as a child, I was given nitrous oxide by a dentist and became "high" on it. While my head was spinning, I looked up at the light and saw my reflection on the light and felt exactly like I was looking down onto myself. I have experienced the exact same effect on subsequent dental surgery when I received nitrous oxide. I have also noticed the same thing when being semi-conscious during other operations. I am highly convinced that many others who were semi conscious and immobilized but very curious about what was happening to their body, looked right up at a reflective surface overhead and saw what appeared to be themselves looking down. Many times, the light is near the reflective stainless steel surface, hence the experience of seeing a "light". That is what they see in a semi-conscious state and I believe that explains many of these stories.
Mind blowing how logic and reasoning can't breakthrough. I have friends like this who always work backwards from their conclusion all based off lies and vibes.
That dude doesnt want to answer the most direct, simple questions because he knows the answers debunk everything he believes in. He is not dumb, just stubborn.
As an atheist, you have ZERO ANSWERS, pal. So don't insinuate any different. All you do is throw rocks at the truth because your atheist cult HAS NONE.
Christinsanity is absurd silliness.
Like all other religions
Try Hinduism.
Hindus are the most arrogant religious folks; they claim that every religion started from their religion and every god in the world be it Allah or Jesus or Yahweh or Zeus are all reincarnation of their Hindu God: Krishna.
That would make us humans mythical, invisible, & undetectable….. that sounds about right 🤣
How can anyone think humans are made in the image of God when no human has ever seen God?
A very logical question to ask 👌
I think it's a bit ironic how religious people will claim "humans are made in the image of god" when anyone who actually cares about truth can figure out pretty quickly that it's really the other way around. In fact, it's a pretty bold assertion that a god would want to or need to look like us in the first place.
STOP with the stupidity already. Atheism is a religion. A religion of “SELF.” Instead of properly worshipping God and putting him first in your life; YOU PUT YOURSELF FIRST.
EVERYBODY HAS A FAITH. It’s just that your faith is stupid. Atheism tenets (e.g. big bang, abiogenesis, mistakes (mutations) gaining in complexity/new information, star formation, evolution) I debunk w/ ease. Any belief re the cause of this universe is a religion and you've tagged yourself an "atheist" because you believe atheist ideas re the cause of this universe (nature: time/space/matter/energy. You also believe that evolution is the "controlling power" over life, instead of God. THAT is religion.
Either you have a RATIONAL POSSIBLE world view or you don't. To be an atheist and have no factual basis for your cult, is to be content to be even more lost and clueless than yesterday.
Why do you cling so desperately to an asinine atheist cult that's INFAMOUS the world over for having ZERO ANSWERS? Could you be more lost and clueless?
Einstein called atheism "a religion formed to reject other religions. How cute and desperate they are." I know it hurts to know that the most famous and respected scientist of our generation believed atheists to be pathetic idiots LOL
When I was resuscitated when I was unconscious I envisaged that I was at an Elton John concert, does that mean Elton John is god?
Don't be silly. God is either Taylor Swift or Blackpink.
@@simonwaugh5519 First I'd need to google who Blackpink are I assume they are some modern manufactured bubble gum pop-style band that would make me rip my ears off and I'd assume I was in hell if Taylor Swift was the entertainment of choice in the afterlife.
Elton John is not God, he is Reginald Wainwright, or something like that.
Elton and Taylor are both god.
There, peace has been achieved!
I love them both tbh! Blackpink has some bangers too (they’re a K-pop band so tick for manufactured but also tick for talented AF)

"I've been studying a little bit - - - -" Yeah right!
What he means is that if he comes across something that meets his preconceived ideas he will accept it but reject everything else.
I love how "Being good is good for you" is so incomprehensible to the caller.
My dad underwent 11 hours of heart surgery, with 5% survival rate. He was clinically dead once during that time and said he was floating around the room. I never believed him, even when I was religious. I smoked enough weed to know my mind can play tricks on me.
Cognitive Dissonance!
The real cognitive dissonance is everyone supporting them playing legacy clips of two people who despise what they've become.
Its like a domestic abuser mocking their victim, who has since left the abuse. Weird shit. Wish they would stop posting these.
These clips are important to shown how completely brainwashed people get to religion. How grown adults can be immersed in a nonsensical fairytale without stopping for a second to form a critical thought
@@climbon3157that’s a bad analogy. It’s more like a previous victim escapes their abuser and is now trying to help fellow victims of abuse out of their abuser mental grasp. And the reason why it’s reposted is to reach other people still involved with the “abuser” to maybe inspire some critical thought on what they believe and why, possibly saving more people from their “abuser”.
@@Samuel-tq9jx I'm sorry, but what are you talking about? I genuinely have no idea whatsoever, I'm clearly unaware of something. And I'd appreciate if you separate facts, opinions, and allegations, so I can have as much as possible an objective and unbiased understanding of it.

Chris reminds me that while it's hard to win an argument with a smart person, it's impossible to win an argument with a moron.

When you're extremely powerful you get to be a douch bag.
God was made in humans' image.
He wishes
But it is by no means the Deity, which has ordered man to establish a worship: it is man himself, who has conceived the idea for his own benefit; and Desire and Fear, more than Respect and Gratitude have given birth to all religions. If the Gods, or the priests in their name, would not promise anything, the temples would soon be empty. Religions in general, have a common character, which is that: to establish a correspondence between man and the invisible beings called Gods, Angels, Genii, &., or in other words, between beings, of man's own creation, in order to explain the phenomena of Nature. The object of this correspondence is, to interest these various beings in his fate, and to obtain assistance from them in his wants. The agents of this correspondence are subtle and astute men, called priests, magicians and other impostors, who pretend to be the intimate confidants or trustees and the organs of the supreme will of invisible beings.

I would say that you fail to understand exactly who God is. He wants to be sought after. Why? Because he's worthy of our pursuit. His awesome greatness is beyond your comprehension. You're breathing air that doesn't belong to you. Taking up space that doesn't belong to you. Given a life that doesn't belong to you. He brought you from nothing and you're nothing, YET you feel totally justified to raise your tiny stupid fist at him. THAT is what you are; never mind him. That said, Jesus loves you dearly & has shown you this love by bringing you from non-existence & giving you “the gift of life.” And did you say “thank you?” No. He also removed your doom via the sin of Adam by the suffering on the cross for you. And did you say “thank you?” No. He’s also “prepared a place for you in Heaven” if you’ll only return his love that’s already given you. And did you say “thank you?” No. Again, it’s the “love” of Jesus for people is what attracts them to Christianity. Your move, Chief.

God watches invisibly and that's all this God seems to be doing in the minds of the Theists.

I remember dreams after i wake up. That doesnt mean my brain didnt invent it and i had a real experience.
A horse landed on top of me (I'm not a good rodeo rider) and the pressure of the blood going backwards through my body stopped my heart for a while. I was revived in an ambulance and when I woke up, there was no sense of the passage of time or any other sensation other than feeling like I'd had the best rest of my life.
I've listened to several of these phone-in callers. Every one of them is stumped when asked to prove their beliefs. Do they call having never heard the format of the show? Do they think this time the atheists will believe "the Bible says so" when they haven't before? I'm just amazed how theists attempt to make their points.
A lot of these calls are a very drawn out way of saying ‘I feel it in my heart.’ This is one of those calls.

I just hope that this caller realizes that 99.9% of all species that have ever lived on planet Earth, have gone extinct. Really let that sink in, man! We are part of a tiny percentage of species that are still thriving (for now) to be able to even talk about this. However, ultimately humans will also go extinct.
This is how you shut down falsehood with simple analogies and comparisons that shows a person claiming to be a believer but can't give a simple reason as to why we should believe as well, and it's always this dead silence before an answer is given wich means, 'I believe but I don't really know why I believe '.
Try to shut me down. I dare you. God created Adam. Adam was righteous and God walked w/ him in the Garden. But then Adam sinned and sin = death and sin separates us from God. So God cursed Adam & all that he ruled over (creation) and that's why EVERYTHING started to decay (entropy) toward heat death. In order to save humanity, God sent his son to die for the sin of the world. Jesus did sacrifice himself and paid that sin debt, as he gave his life for humanity. So all we have to do to receive that gift is to give our life to him. All that means is to ask him to forgive us of our sin and make him Lord of our life. We simply put him first in our life. It doesn't mean we spend 24 hrs in prayer, fasting and in reading the Bible. It simply means to honor him and follow his teaching in the Bible. We go to church to learn about God and worship him in song, tithes & offerings. We spend some time with Jesus each day in prayer, even if it's only 15 minutes. We read the Bible. If you want to know more, ask me.
@@craedonbwroten6693 So why is entropy only a tendency and not a certainty? Why did God punish all of creation for the sins of 3 beings? How could Adam have been righteous without knowledge of good and evil?
@@matthewadams1674 I don't know exactly what you mean w/ your question, but God finished creation before he started it. The curse he put on his creation was that his creation started to die (entropy). He cursed Adam & all that Adam ruled over, which was creation itself - out to the limit of our atmosphere.
Adam had no experience in wrongdoing, so he didn't have a conscience before he ate of the tree. But you have sinned plenty in your life and your sin = death also.
@@craedonbwroten6693 Except extropy has been happening since the Big Bang happened, unless you think the laws of physics suddenly changed thousands of years ago. And entropy isn't death, it's simply energy's tendency to spread out. And why was everything Adam "ruled" over punished for his sin? Also entropy happens across the entire universe, not just Earth.
What does Adam having no way of being righteous before knowing what righteousness is have to do with my supposed sins against a being we have no evidence exists?
@@matthewadams1674 The big bang never happened; GENESIS happened. EVERYTHING (GENESIS) can only come from a source of EVERYTHING (God) by top down production. It's impossible that EVERYTHING came from NOTHING (big bang) by bottom up production. These are just several more facts that prove how absurd the faith of atheism truly is. It's totally impossible that reality is GODLESS.
Entropy is slow death. When your cells are copied over and over again, you lose information in an increasing disorder, just like when an engine wears out in mileage to reach +/- 300,000 miles.
When God cursed Adam, Adam & all he had (creation) was cursed.
Adam was made righteous and Adam understood right from wrong. He just didn't have a conscience about right and wrong until he ate the fruit. God = perfection. God punished Adam because it was the perfect justice for God to do so.
The fact that he dodges to talking about NDEs proves that he's guilty of all the logical fallacies that is what all arguments for this or that theology consist of.
21 minutes in they finally get to it: it requires faith. That's all that needs to be said.

It’s very simple 0% evidence of god 100% evidence man has created gods
What would be more miraculous with regard to near death experiences is if every Muslim, who has a near death experience, came back and reported seeing Jesus.
What I liked about the caller is that he wasn't scared to question himself when shown he was wrong. That's all we want though.
What I find most perplexing is these theists "godsplaining" what their actual deity is thinking. As if humans can speak on behalf of a deity?! Excuseagists!
They can always speak at length for god, until you ask something specific of the all-knowing god, such as the ten digits on a hidden sheet of paper, then, without exception, the excuses start flowing.

One of the best arguments against religion is the geographical location. If you are born in india you are most likely a hindu if you are born in the near east you are most likely muslim etc. It's so obvious that it's just a man made social construct.
So, according to that geographic argument, that means all atheists are atheists because all atheists were raised in atheist households.
How do you figure that is the case?
Wrong. There is no "argument." Intellect overrides the teachings of youth. The search for “truth” has no barriers. There are millions of Christians in Muslim & Hindu nations and in atheist nations.
Just like all atheists are atheists because they all came from atheist households.
That’s why you never hear from an atheist account that they ever came from a religious household right?

The number of believers doesn’t mean a damn thing. Evidence matters, you lot have none.
How do we know that the people are actually dead when they had the experience. The expererince likely happens while a person is still alive. The fact that they are able to recount that experience leads me to think that they were not actually dead at the time. I also had a friend that had a scary near death experience. It actually changed his life. He said it was so scary that he assessed his propites and changed his life away from striving for money to what he realized what was really important, which was relationships and family. It seems that even though he had a negative experience it led to a positive result. It was quite a striking change.
When a god follower starts any sentence with what I believe is! the conversation is over!!! What a person believes gets us no where near evidence or proof of any god!
"I know what you believe in, but I wanna know why?"
Short answer: It makes them feel good.
God is love and goodness... until it gets pissed off then it wipes out a planet 🤔
the whole damn book is absurd!
The Bible is a masterpiece of literature....for entertainment purposes only.
My favorites are the infancy gospel of Thomas, and the book of Enoch!

We should sue. It needs to be in the restricted section, and come with an "R" rating on the cover.

how do these people muster up the courage to call into a live show to then be completely stumped within 2 minutes of the call.
Have you been to karaoke before? The best singer is never the first on stage. The drunk tone deaf ones are chomping at the bits to embarrass themselves. 😅
The sensation of being outside their body in near death experiences is due to the dissociative state of a brain under trauma.
To paraphrase the inimitable Frank Zappa, If we're created in God's image, and we're dumb, then God is dumb, and maybe a little ugly on the side".
People snickering in the background. Nice touch.
I'll never understand the chuckling acknowledgement of the complete dismantling of a caller's core beliefs from so many callers.
Eeeh it's probably some unconscious action, kinda like moving your hands when you are anxious.
My sister-in-law thinks men have one less ribs than women- and no matter how shes tried to understand why ppl dont believe in god, they just need to look at a skeleton. Ill never forget that 1st easter. Been telling that story 15yrs now.😂😂😂.
Thats a widespread belief among evangelicals according to siri.
Edit: She has 5 kids. Delusional
Are you my aunt Linda? My mother thinks the same. I showed her skeleton pictures, she called it "scientists propaganda"
So bizarre. I can feel my own ribs #1. #2...my son has the exact same # of ribs as his 2 sisters. I know that because I did my job as their parent. I can tell you every ding, dent, dimple, pimple, birthmark, and birth defect on their bodies. It's insulting as a parent. 😂😂😂
my dad thinks the same thing. i showed him evidence that he's wrong and he still didn't believe me. he told me to speak to a preacher about it, because they'll "prove me wrong." of course, they actually wouldn't. he just doesn't get it!
Hahahaha these people never give up, even when you stump them!!!!
He tried to dodge the bullet for 18minutes... from then on he got slaughtered by a rain of bullets😂
Wouldn't NDEs be evidence *against* Christianity? I can't find 'floating around the room' in the Bible.
No. Paul was taken into heaven and back; so was John. Enoch and Elijah was also, but they are coming back as the "two witnesses" in The Book of Revelation. Millions have had NDE'S. 1 in every 25 that die have an NDE experience.
@@sineaddwanson9294 Your Bible reports of 'visions' have nothing to do with NDEs. Paul did not report dying, and the other two guys died without reporting the experience.
If people's 'spirits' do in fact leave their bodies but remain in the vicinity when they are approaching death (the operative word in NDE is *near* ), this shows that Bible is wrong about what happens upon death.
@@sineaddwanson9294NDEs don’t prove anything but how the brain reacts during traumatic stress, they can also be duplicated in laboratory setting with drugs and electrical stimulation to certain areas of the brain and during certain types of brain surgeries of otherwise healthy individuals.
@@sineaddwanson9294NDE means NEAR death experience. There’s no evidence ,except stories, that any of the of the guys you mentioned were taken up to heaven, let alone brot back
Chris most recurrent argument is: - Ok, ok...😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
GBH Jim Castleberry (alias Edith Bromfeld) again dips into their repertoire of fallacious spam copypasta, arguing that disbelief in God is unreasonable because of the alleged consequences of a God not existing. With that fallacious appeal to consequences, Jim/Edith maintain their unblemished record of zero sound arguments for any deity whatsoever.
LOL, @@JimCastleberry, people can READ your OP and tell who's lying here!

This caller is like someone hanging from a cliff on a straw and grasping for the next one and next one and so on for each question he gets asked. A little further and I'm sure he'd started crying.
Was there ever a time when there was a religion more popular than Christuianity? Yes!
No. Islam is a forced cult.
The caller should read The Iliad. The Greek gods revealed themselves to those at Troy.
The sin-sacrifice-resurrection story implies a superstitious God who values blood-sacrifice. Obviously the superstitious early folks, who valued blood sacrifice, created the God of the Bible in their own superstitious image.
Yes! Blood sacrifice is atavistic behavior. Society has long since progressed beyond _lex talionis_ so we no longer need to exact like-for-like punishments. Depending on the transgression, you either lose a privilege or pay a fine.
We also don’t visit the sins of the fathers on their sons. Everyone starts with a clean slate and succeeds or fails on their own merits.
Blood sacrifice is a savage practice that has no place in a modern society.

Ok that was pretty good. You come up with that?
What’s the evidence. “He came down”. 😂
What I heard about the Job story about Satan having control or charge on earth.
I love when they start off with “well I don’t have any solid evidence but…” yes we know you never do,yet here you are lol
God is made in Man's image.
"Ok, ok, ok, ok" 😂😂😂
"I'll take a step forward", because I can't prove my belief on that one so I'll just move on to another goofy claim.
"I just believe so that's that" this is the intellectual laziness theists subscribe to. It's exhausting 😂😂😂
Why wouldnt a Christian want to be prayed for if they were choking on some food, couldn't breathe and every second counted?
Because God gave us knowledge of many different things to use for different situations. It's not logical to take the time to "pray" in a time-sensitive situation. Anything else I can help you with?
@@craedonbwroten6693 What knowledge has he given us? I don't see him coming down and teaching us stuff. And no, books don't teach.
@@matthewadams1674 I don't know what each person on earth knows about God, but God does. And since God is the perfect judge, we can trust him to be just come "Judgement Day." I'd worry about yourself, which is plenty to worry about.
You and I know about God and we'll be judged on what we know - if we followed God's commands.
@@craedonbwroten6693 So what knowledge has he given us? That was my question which you have not answered.
@@matthewadams1674 Then why do we have "books" in school, genius? LOL Of course "books" teach.
I already have proved God by what we observe: You're DYING/aging/dissipating/losing information/going from bad to worse/not evolving new anatomy or even maintaining present anatomy. That means something gave you and your entire ancestry an initial set amount of matter/energy before it started to dissipate. We call him "OUR INFINITE/ETERNAL/SUPERNATURAL GOD." For you to deny these IRREFUTABLE FACTS proves you're not only insane, delusional and mentally ill with a God bias, but you're a fool.

It's so sad to hear this guy time and time again lack the understanding of his fallacious beliefs - even if he still believes after acknowleging them... He just can't wean himself from the Bible.
Indoctrination is a powerful thing. He may not have been but most believers were raised by religious parents.
If we are made in his image that means that God 💩. If he 💩 then does his 💩 get flushed to hell? And in hell does his 💩 smell the sweetest?
"no because that's just a physical thing" says Chris from Boise, ID.
Apparently God made us in his image except he made a body for us when he apparently doesn't need one, so much for "in his image".
"Y'all are totally in my image except for the physical aspect and the fact we are nothing alike in spirit cause I'm endlessly powerful and y'all aren't shit. Totally in my image"
